The same brand, the same white dress. As it turned out, Fei Mo was the one who sent her the dress. At this moment, the receipt felt warm in her hands. She had been shocked when Qiao Qiao said the dress cost roughly 120,000 yuan. At that time, she wracked her brain thinking of people around her who could have sent that dress, but she did not think of him at all.

Indeed. It was raining at that time. Apart from Fei Mo, who else could have known she was caught in the rain? However, she was slightly confused. How did he know what size she wore? He could not possibly be able to tell just by looking at her, right?

Regardless, she was warmed by his act of kindness. Although he looked distant and cold, as though he cared for no one but himself, he was clearly a considerate person.

She turned her head slightly and studied his handsome side profile. His long eyelashes could make girls jealous. He looked really handsome as he stared at the buildings outside the window, immersed in his own world. She had to admit that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen. To be able to see such a handsome face every day could also be counted as a blessing.

She thought to herself absentmindedly, “Ah, if my son looks like him, he’ll definitely be handsome!’

As soon as this thought appeared in her mind, she quickly snapped out of it. She was somewhat annoyed that she was mesmerized by his beauty! ‘What am I thinking? We have an agreement. It’s a marriage of convenience. How could we have children!’

It was rush hour so the traffic was rather bad. They had driven for a long time, but they had yet to leave the city.

At this moment, a small growling sound, made even clearer by the silence in the car, rang in the air.

A sheepish expression appeared on Yun Yiyi’s face immediately, and she quickly covered her stomach. She was rather hungry since she had not eaten all day. Alas, even if she covered her stomach, it continued to play a symphony of its own despite her embarrassment.

Fei Mo turned his head to look at her. His voice was low and carried a trace of gentleness as he asked, “What kind of food do you like to eat?”

“Uh…” Yun Yiyi smiled in embarrassment. “I’m not really picky about food.”

“What do you like to eat?”

Ah Qing’s eyes widened his eyes in shock. He knew his young master was not one to repeat his question. In less than a day, his young master had made so many exceptions for Yun Yiyi. In the future, could there be even more exceptions? As the saying went, ‘As long as there’s once, there’ll be twice’. He wondered if his young master’s heart was moved.

“Sichuan cuisine. Especially the Sichuan cuisine from the Sichuan restaurant on Peace Street!” Yun Yiyi replied. Her eyes shone brightly as she spoke about food. She was, in fact, a foodie who loved delicious food. Her favorite food was Sichuan cuisine. It would be the best if she was able to eat her favorite food when she was hungry.

‘Duck blood, flower clams, tofu…’ The more she thought about it, the more she craved it. She almost drooled just thinking about it.

“Ah Qing…” Fei Mo called out lightly in his low and charming voice.

“Understood, young master. I’ll make reservations immediately.” Since the car was at a standstill due to heavy traffic, Ah Qing pulled out his phone to reserve a table.

A delighted expression appeared on Yun Yiyi’s face instantly upon learning she would be able to eat her favorite food! She was so happy that she did not realize Fei Mo was looking at her.

Her facial features were exquisite and beautiful. Her long eyelashes fluttered gently like the wings of a butterfly. Her eyes twinkled with happiness at this moment as though an entire galaxy of stars was contained in her eyes. She had also lost her reserved and elegant aura. Her childish expression now made her look cute instead.

Fei Mo knew, at this moment, he was given a glimpse of the real Yun Yiyi. He was unaware that, at this moment, his eyes carried a hint of tenderness when he looked at her.

…

There were not many restaurants on Peace Street so the traffic was not bad.

As soon as the car pulled up the entrance, Yun Yiyi opened the car door excitedly.

Ah Qing who was making his way over to open the door for her was taken aback and quickly said, “Young madam, please wait for me to open the door for you next time.”

“It’s okay. Isn’t it the same if I open it?”

“That won’t do, “Ah Qing said solemnly, “How can I let young madam open the car door?”

Yun Yiyi was startled when she saw how solemn Ah Qing was. “Uh… Okay, I’ll let you open the door next time. However, there’s no need for you to address me as young madam. I’m really not used to it.” She understood Ah Qing’s sense of responsibility so she did not put up a resistance to him opening the car door.

Fei Mo was stuck in the car, waiting for Yun Yiyi to alight from the car. If it were anyone else, they would probably have to leave Jiang City for this transgression. She was clearly different from other people. This was the first time he was so patient with another person.

Yun Yiyi was, naturally, unaware of this. When she finally saw Chuan Yu Pavilion, her eyes lit up, and she finally alighted from the car.

No impatience or displeasure could be seen on Fei Mo’s face when he stepped out of the car. When he saw the restaurant, he finally discovered it was just an ordinary small restaurant.

In her black dress, she looked like one of those socialites who frequented fine-dining restaurants. Despite her appearance, she was nothing like those socialites who were picky and would only eat at expensive restaurants. She had chosen to eat in an ordinary restaurant instead.

Fei Mo found her personality agreeable. She was straightforward and did not act coquettishly.

“Young master, small places like this might be unhygienic. Moreover, your stomach…”

Before Ah Qing finished speaking, Fei Mo made his way to the entrance of the restaurant. This was because Yun Yiyi was excitedly beckoning him over.

Ah Qing could not help but sigh when he saw this. He had an ominous feeling about this.

Ah Qing had booked one of the three private rooms on the second floor of the restaurant.

After they sat down, the waiter brought the menus to them.

Fei Mo did not look at the menu and said to Yun Yiyi expressionlessly, “You can order…”

Without looking at the menu, Yun Yiyi began to place her order. After she was done, she looked at Fei Mo and asked, “What do you like to eat? I’ll order for you.”

Fei Mo looked at the happy expression on her face and replied in a soft voice, “Anything is fine.”

“The shrimps in this restaurant are especially delicious. I order three servings every time I come here. I strongly recommend you try it.”

“Okay.”

…

Soon after, the dishes were served.

Yun Yiyi placed the ingredients she ordered into the boiling hotpot while Fei Mo who was sitting at the side looked at her gently.

When it was time to eat, she kept putting food into Fei Mo’s bowl. Only then did she give in to her temptation to eat. She was really hungry so she did not stop eating for a long time.

Although Yun Yiyi was hungry and had not stopped eating, in Fei Mo’s eyes, her table manners were elegant and appropriate. She truly had the bearing of a lady from a wealthy family. Her characters were contradictory but came together in a charming manner.

When he realized his heart had skipped a beat when he looked at her, he froze…
