Chapter 236 Sweetness Before Departure
Chapter 236 Sweetness Before Departure
After the date for going to the port city was set, Jiangcheng seemed to quiet down. For two days in a row, Mo Ze did not find any trace of the people who were following him.
Could it be... that they've withdrawn?
He didn't have time to think about it much and focused all his energy on preparing for the trip to the port city.
They also contacted Zhou Chengan in advance, so that he could help if anything unexpected happened in Gangcheng.
Zhou Chengan didn't ask any further questions and agreed to Mo Ze's request, saying he would be ready at any time.
After completing the preparations, Moze felt much more at ease.
When it was time to leave work, Mo Ze went to his car first, while Shen Nian, as usual, secretly waited until everyone had left before going to the parking lot to find him. Perhaps because she had always been careful, she hadn't been discovered by her colleagues at all these past few days.
After getting into the car, Shen Nian looked at Mo Ze with a smile, "Yay~ We arrived safely, time to go home."
Mo Ze turned to look at her and smiled indulgently. Every day he accompanied her in hiding, even though they were a perfectly legitimate husband and wife, it made it seem like they were having an affair. Mo Ze had long since given up on his temper. He used to feel wronged, thinking that he wasn't shameful at all.
Now I just do whatever my wife wants, whatever she says goes, I should pamper the wife I chose.
Shen Nian originally thought she would go straight home to cook dinner today. Ever since they discovered that someone was following them, their lives had become much simpler, a routine of going to the company every morning and going home after get off work. They ate at the company cafeteria during the day, and for dinner, they would cook some simple home-style dishes or eat noodles or dumplings.
Neither of them are picky people, and they were quite happy with a simple meal.
"Are we having glutinous rice balls for dinner?" Shen Nian asked Mo Ze, since they had noodles last night and she was thinking they would have glutinous rice balls tonight.
Mo Ze smiled and said to her, "We're having hot pot tonight."
Shen Nian's eyes lit up when she heard the word "hot pot".
"Shall we go buy groceries now?" Shen Nian asked uncertainly.
Moze shook his head. "Let's go to that hot pot restaurant near the apartment."
It's that hot pot restaurant they used to frequent, the one Shen Nian always loved to eat at.
"Yay, that's great!" Shen Nian was as happy as a child, but the next second she asked Mo Ze worriedly, "Is it okay to go out now?"
Mo Ze still had a doting smile on his lips, "Those people have all left in the last two days."
“I’ll go to Hong Kong tomorrow to take care of things,” Moze said after a pause.
"Then you need to be careful," Shen Nian said with concern.
"Mm," Moze replied with a smile.
Instead of returning to their apartment, the two drove directly to the entrance of the hot pot restaurant.
The owner saw them coming and greeted them with a smile, "Long time no see!"
Shen Nian pulled Mo Ze to find a seat, and replied with a smile, "I've been quite busy with work lately."
The store was already getting busy, but luckily we found an empty seat and didn't have to wait.
Shen Nian ordered the food with great enthusiasm, and Mo Ze had no objections whatsoever, always saying "okay" to whatever she said.
While waiting for the hot pot base and dishes to be served, Shen Nian asked Mo Ze, "Uncle, are you going to Hong Kong for a few days tomorrow, and are you going alone?"
"Qin Yiche is coming back with me for about three days. There's still some work to take care of," Mo Ze replied.
"That's perfect, you'll be back on Friday. I'll take you somewhere this weekend," Shen Nian said mysteriously to Mo Ze.
Mo Ze looked at the smiling woman in front of him, and the corners of his mouth also turned up. He didn't ask where she was taking him, but simply nodded and replied, "Okay."
He was initially reluctant to go to the port city, but now he's even more eager to go and come back quickly to be with his wife.
While they were eating, Moze suddenly asked, "Where are we going?"
Shen Nian was taken aback, thinking that the topic had long been over, but she didn't expect the uncle to still be pondering it.
She grinned, then pouted and said deliberately, "I thought you didn't want to know~"
Moze laughed too, "I have a rather slow reaction time."
Shen Nian didn't expect Mo Ze to joke like that, but she still didn't say where she was going to take him this weekend.
"It's a secret. If I tell you now, there won't be any surprise. So let's wait until you come back to tell you." Shen Nian used her coquettish charm to bombard Mo Ze with her words, leaving Mo Ze helpless.
Even after leaving the hot pot restaurant, I still couldn't get any information out of them.
Okay, then let's wait for the surprise.
He's already thinking, maybe... he shouldn't go to Hong Kong for now...
After all, the surprise prepared by the wife is more anticipated!
After finishing their hotpot meal and returning home, Shen Nian helped Mo Ze pack his luggage.
The plan can't be changed; we still have to go to the port city.
Actually, Mo Ze was the one who mainly organized things, while Shen Nian followed along, helping him by getting a storage bag or folding clothes. As Mo Ze packed his things, he still couldn't help but remind Shen Nian, "I've asked Lu Cheng to pick you up from get off work these next two days. Don't go out by yourself, and don't go to the project site either."
Shen Nian tilted her head. "Didn't they say those people were gone?"
Mo Ze reached out and gently stroked her nose, saying affectionately, "What if I'm not by your side? I'll worry about you."
Shen Nian patted her chest and assured her, "You can go ahead and do your work without worry. I'll definitely be a good boy and do what I say."
Mo Ze suddenly laughed, "Yes, our Niannian is indeed very well-behaved."
The word "well-behaved" he used filled Shen Nian with imagination.
Because, at those times, the older man would always say to her, "Honey, darling, it'll be ready soon..."
Shen Nian's face turned bright red instantly.
She's doomed, she's really doomed, her brain is full of too much toxicity!
"Niannian, why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?" Mo Ze said, putting down what he was holding and walking over to Shen Nian, preparing to check the temperature on his forehead.
Shen Nian was startled and jumped out of bed, stammering, "No, it's nothing, I'm fine."
Moze stopped and asked doubtfully, "Are you really alright?"
Shen Nian shook her head vigorously, "I'm really fine!"
Mo Ze was still worried and took another step forward to check on Shen Nian's condition. Noticing his movement, Shen Nian took a step back.
The two were still half a meter apart.
Shen Nian looked left and right, and finally picked up the clothes that Mo Ze had taken out of the dressing room and temporarily placed on the bed, which had not yet been packed into the suitcase, and said, "I, I'll fold the clothes for you."
Turning around, I saw that I had picked up a pair of black underwear.
Her already flushed face turned completely red, like a boiled duck.
Looking at the underwear in her hand, she felt like she was holding a hot potato, and shoved it haphazardly into Mo Ze's hand, saying, "I, I'm going to take a shower first."
Then they quickly fled the scene.
Mo Ze glanced down at the underwear in his hand, watched the figure disappear into the bathroom, and smiled.
