She thought back to yesterday when she had vowed to treat him well with all her heart.

Today, she felt as if she had been slapped in the face.

Fang Mo’er swallowed hard and lowered her head, as she tried to think of an excuse.

Shi Mo quietly waited for her as well.

Fang Mo’er felt her heart start to beat very fast.

Swallowing hard, she smiled and said, “This is all my work from before I got married. It’s all in the past now.”

Shi Mo’s hand paused for a moment. Sure enough, the temperature in the room started to warm up a little.

Shi Mo pushed the menu towards her and asked, “What would you like to eat?”

With just that one sentence, he seemed to have been pacified.

The honorable President Shi could not make a big deal over her past, right?

That did not seem like his style at all, and he could not make a fuss about this matter anymore.

As the dishes started to be served one after another, Fang Mo’er’s appetite increased, and she prepared to feast.

However, just as she picked up a piece of beef, Shi Mo’s chopsticks moved over and snatched her food away before throwing it back onto the plate.

Shi Mo said with a look of disdain, “This dish has gone bad. Go and change it to something fresh.”

Fang Mo’er’s heart began to ring with alarm bells.

The waiter did not dare to refute him and hurriedly carried the dish out to change it.

However, the meat in the restaurant was obviously the freshest. There was no reason for it to have gone bad.

Fang Mo’er also smiled, “Husband, you really are the best. Of course, you have to eat food that is fresh. It’s good for your health. It would be stupid if you ate anything that had gone bad.”

Fang Mo’er continued, “I don’t like beef that has spoiled either. It’s gone past its expiration date.”

Wasn’t Mu Chen just like a piece of spoiled beef?

She would never go back to the way things were.

Shi Mo could rest assured with regards to her.

In a low voice, Shi Mo murmured a response and the temperature in the room improved significantly.

When the waiter returned with a new dish, Shi Mo personally picked it up and offered it to her.

“Eat.” It was the freshest beef.

It was truly fresh.

Fang Mo’er took a bite of the meat and chewed it gently.

Shi Mo’s eyes darkened.

Fresh beef was like the equivalent of a newcomer.

What Fang Mo’er was eating now meant…

“Is it good?” Shi Mo suddenly asked her.

Fang Mo’er was eating with relish and some juice had stained the corner of her mouth.

Good-naturedly, Shi Mo took out a piece of tissue paper.

He leaned over and with his own hand, wiped away the stain on her red lips.

Fang Mo’er looked up. “Thank you.”

Shi Mo picked up a tender piece of vegetable sprouts and placed it into his mouth.

He chewed it gently.

“Did you feel alright last night?” He suddenly asked.

“Pretty good, I slept…” Fang Mo’er was in the middle of her sentence when she suddenly froze. Unsure of what to think, her face turned red.

Sure enough, when she looked up, she saw Shi Mo leaning against the back of the chair as he stared at her with a burning gaze.

He was admiring her embarrassment.

He was thinking about how raw and innocent she had been with him the previous night.

He also thought of the touches that he could not seem to forget.

For some reason, Shi Mo seemed intent on teasing her, “If you’re not satisfied with anything, you can say so.”

Naturally, Fang Mo’er understood what he meant.

Hence, she stared at him with glistening eyes, not knowing how to react.

This man was actually so brazen as to speak of such things during the meal.

Surprisingly, however, she did not feel any revulsion. Instead, her heart started to feel a spark of excitement.

Seeing that she had remained silent for a while, Shi Mo raised his wine glass and took a sip. When he put it down, he said, “I can improve.”

The moment he said this, Fang Mo’er choked on the food that was in her mouth.

She coughed violently, feeling frustrated.

D*mn it, she could not even finish her sentences.

Shi Mo smiled and shook his head. He raised a glass of water and handed it to her.

Fang Mo’er calmed herself down.

After a while, she looked up at him again and defiantly said, “Barely, there’s still room for improvement. You should continue to work hard.”

As to what aspect he should improve on, she could not actually say. He did not ask either.

After that, the two of them did not speak any more.

Fang Mo’er ate in complete seriousness.

Shi Mo also sipped his red wine slowly, looking at Fang Mo’er from time to time.

When Fang Mo’er met his gaze, she was stunned.

Shi Mo’s face, dark eyes, high nose bridge, and well-defined profile was a complete work of art.

His entire person exuded a noble and cold aura.

He was such a beautiful man, yet he was looking at her so intently.

Any woman would easily fall for him.

Fang Mo’er’s face flushed red.

In a tiny voice, she asked him sweetly, “By the way, how did you find out about my composition?”

Shi Mo replied, “Star Dream Era has quite a few branches. Your company’s venture film is under our company as well.”

Fang Mo’er clapped. “That’s impressive.”

Shi Mo gave a slight smile.

When both of them were done eating, Fang Mo’er followed Shi Mo out.

Mu Chen and Bai Rong were nowhere to be seen.

They entered the elevator and headed to the parking lot.

However, Fang Mo’er spotted them the moment they stepped out of the elevator.

Mu Chen was leaning against his car.
