Chapter 163: Chapter 122: A Man Should Be Like Chen Mo
It was a stark contrast to the restless, distracted feeling she had at home.
By Chen Mo’s side, she was calm, her heart at peace.
She didn’t know why, but she liked this feeling.
"What made you decide to come over today?"
Chen Mo asked deliberately, his arm around her fair, delicate shoulders.
"My mom saw how distracted I was at home and told me to come find you."
Xia Shiqing didn’t hold back, telling Chen Mo the reason directly.
"Distracted? Were you thinking about me?"
Hearing this, Chen Mo gave her an intriguing look and asked.
"I wasn’t thinking about you."
Xia Shiqing shook her head without a second thought, denying it.
Chen Mo shrugged, just smiling without saying anything more.
Even someone as stubborn as Pan Kejia would have to admit—
’She’s on another level!’
He didn’t dwell on the question. She was lying in his arms, baring all. ’Does it even matter if she was thinking about me or not?’
"Oh, right. I have a necklace and bracelet for you."
Chen Mo remembered the gifts for them and picked up two jewelry boxes from the nightstand.
He had put them there earlier.
"A necklace and a bracelet?"
Hearing this, Xia Shiqing propped herself up to look at the two jewelry boxes.
Chen Mo opened the boxes for her, revealing the necklace and bracelet inside.
"They’re beautiful. I love them."
With delicate fingers, Xia Shiqing gently lifted the necklace from its box, undisguised adoration flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"I’m glad you like it."
Chen Mo smiled and nodded.
These must have been the ones Liu Jianshe brought from the store.
He had probably selected these styles after considering various factors like sales figures, price, and popularity.
They were generally popular among women.
"Can you help me put it on?"
Xia Shiqing handed him the necklace, her beautiful eyes fixed on his as she blinked and spoke.
"I’ll help you put it on tomorrow morning before work. It won’t be convenient for driving in a bit."
Chen Mo took the necklace, casually placed it back in the box, and shot her a smile.
"Oh, right..."
Xia Shiqing finally understood. ’The night is still young...’
"I also got a gift for you."
Seeing Chen Mo was about to get back on the highway, Xia Shiqing blushed and tapped his shoulder.
"Oh? What is it?"
Chen Mo recalled she had talked with a female netizen about getting him a gift.
He looked at her, his curiosity piqued.
"Last time I saw you playing a game in that room, I knew you liked it, so I asked one of my subordinates at the company."
"They suggested I could buy you skins, but I didn’t know which ones you wanted."
"So I bought you an account with all the champions and all the skins. I don’t know if you’ll like it?"
Xia Shiqing looked straight into Chen Mo’s eyes as she told him about the gift she had prepared.
She even explained how she came up with the idea.
"An account with all the champions and all the skins?"
Hearing this, Chen Mo was momentarily stunned, his eyes filled with surprise.
He never expected Xia Shiqing’s gift would be a game account!
Because Xia Shiqing never played games and had no interest in them.
So he hadn’t considered it at all. Now that he knew what the gift was, he was genuinely shocked and amazed.
"Mhm, do you like it?"
Her delicate hand resting on Chen Mo’s shoulder unconsciously tightened on his arm, revealing her nervousness.
"Of course I like it. Thank you."
Chen Mo leaned down and kissed her alluring lips, smiling as he nodded.
As far as he knew, an account with every champion and skin was worth at least 60,000.
Putting the value aside, the fact that she had paid attention to the game he liked and prepared a gift based on it...
...that thoughtfulness was truly commendable.
"As long as you like it."
Xia Shiqing’s delicate hand gripping his arm immediately relaxed, and her mood instantly brightened.
She had been so afraid that Chen Mo wouldn’t like her gift.
Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel a little emotional.
’Both of them are the type of people who always think about giving a gift in return after receiving one.’
’And the crucial part is, they’re both rich.’
’After getting a gift from me, they give back something even more valuable.’
’This kind of give-and-take is what makes things interesting.’
That was precisely why he chose to give the jewelry from Liu Jianshe to the two of them.
If it were someone who only knew how to take and never give...
...he’d tell them to get lost. He would rather throw these things away than give them to someone like that.
’It’s no fun.’
"I love your gift. Let me give you something nice in return."
Chen Mo gave her a meaningful look, then lowered his head and kissed her.
The bright headlights switched on as the car left the service area and got back on the highway.
After a while on the highway, it was time for a few laps on the racetrack.
When the car’s frame shook like it was about to fall apart, it was time to leave the racetrack and cruise on the highway for a bit.
The road type changed in real-time according to the car’s condition.
Though it was a bit bumpy, it was a great driving experience nonetheless.
...
「The next morning.」
After washing up, Xia Shiqing changed into the business suit she kept here.
Chen Mo stood behind her graceful figure, fastening the necklace around her swan-like neck.
"Well, I’m off to work."
After giving Chen Mo a kiss on the cheek, Xia Shiqing left for work by herself.
She had driven over last night, so she didn’t need Chen Mo to take her.
Watching her figure disappear into the elevator, Chen Mo closed the door.
Remembering what Pan Kejia had specifically mentioned last night, Chen Mo sent her a WeChat message with great interest: "She’s left."
"Roger that."
Pan Kejia replied in an instant.
Seeing her reply, Chen Mo couldn’t help but chuckle.
