Chapter 154 - Why Do I Feel Like You’re Tricking Me Again?

Xu Youyou was in a good mood. She held the brochures and made her way to the gates.

Suddenly, a cheerful voice called out, “Sister-in-law!”

Xu Youyou stopped and turned around to see Mo Zhiyun running toward her. This was the first time she saw Mo Zhiyun after the new year. She asked, “Zhiyun? Why are you here?”

Mo Zhiyun came to a stop in front of Xu Youyou and said with a smile, “Sister-in-law, I’m also a student of Mo City. I’m in the IT department.”

Mo Zhiyun was previously admitted to Mo University. However, due to that accident, she fell into a coma. At that time, Mo Shenbai had taken leave for her. Now that she was fully recovered, it was natural for her to return.

“IT?”

Mo Zhiyun nodded. “My dream is to be the number hacker in the world!” After a pause, she leaned closer and asked, “Have you heard about the Queen of the Deep Web?”

Xu Youyou shook her head. She knew nothing about these things. Her using the tablet to draw was the limit of her knowledge of technology.

Mo Zhiyun’s eyes sparkled as she said enthusiastically, “She’s the world’s number one hacker, and she’s also my idol! I want to be like her and build an Internet empire that belongs to me!”

Although Xu Youyou did not understand, she admiredand respected Mo Zhiyun’s determination. She said, “I believe you’ll be able to do it!”

“Little Sister-in-law, you’re so nice. When I told Brother about this, he only looked at me coldly and said that there was a difference between dreams and wishful thinking,” Mo Zhiyun said as she pouted.

Xu Youyou smiled and said, “He probably just doesn’t want you to over-exhaust yourself.”

Mo Zhiyun was very moved by Xu Youyou. She hugged Xu Youyou and cried out, “Sister-in-law, you’re really a little angel!”

A passing student overheard Mo Zhiyun’s words and looked at them strangely.

Xu Youyou felt slightly embarrassed and quickly whispered, “Don’t call me Sister-in-law when we’re here. Others will laugh at me.”

Mo Zhiyun thought about it for a moment before she said, “Then, I’ll call you Youyou when we’re at the university. In front of Brother, I’ll call you Sister-in-law.”

“Okay.”

Mo Zhiyun’s smile widened as she said, “Oh, right! I saw the video of your performance. Youyou, you’re really too cute. I even bookmarked it.”

Mo Zhiyun brought out her phone, intending to show Xu Youyou the video. After a moment, she muttered, puzzled, “Eh? Why is it gone?”

Xu Youyou instinctively leaned over to have a look. “It’s gone?”

Mo Zhiyun was puzzled. “Your video is gone.”

Mo Zhiyun went to search for it, but there was nothing that came up in the search at all.

“How’s this possible? There were many videos of your performance before this. Why are they all gone?”

Xu Youyou did not look at her phone the entire day so she did not know what was going on.

Mo Zhiyun typed on her phone again. A quick search showed that videos of Bai Qingyu dancing and Ling Zhihuan barking like a dog were still here. Only the videos of Xu Youyou’s performance had gone missing.

The duo looked at each other before Mo Zhiyun said in a speculative tone, “Could it be…”

Although Mo Zhiyun did not name the culprit, Xu Youyou knew what Mo Zhiyun meant.

Xu Youyou did not care much about the deletion of the videos. She said, “Forget it. It’s good this way. I don’t want trouble.”

Mo Zhiyun pouted and said, “Brother is too petty…”

“Oh, right. Do you want to come to Moon Pavilion for dinner? I’ll be cooking tonight,” Xu Youyou asked.

Mo Zhiyun’s eyes brightened immediately. However, her eyes quickly dimmed and she averted them as she quickly shook her head and said, “No, it’s okay.”

Although Mo Zhiyun wished she could, she did not have the courage to do so.

Xu Youyou could not help but ask curiously, “Mo Shenbai said that Moon Pavilion is his private residence and that members of the Mo family aren’t welcomed. That includes you as well?”

Mo Zhiyun forced a smile on her face and said, “I’m going back to the old residence now. If you have time, come and visit me there. Bye-bye!”

Not giving Xu Youyou a chance to speak, Mo Zhiyun turned around and hurried away.

Xu Youyou: “…”

She was puzzled. Apart from not having a good relationship with the Mo family, it seemed like Mo Shenbai did not have a good relationship with his sister as well. However, he was clearly very concerned about Mo Zhiyun. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to a fake marriage back then in order to save Mo Zhiyun.



Xu Youyou returned to Moon Pavilion with a belly full of doubts.

Mo Shenbai was not back yet.

She went upstairs to put her things away and changed before she went to the kitchen to cook.

Half an hour later, Mo Shenbai, who had returned, came to the kitchen and pulled her into a room nearby.

He pressed her against the door and kissed her.

Xu Youyou clutched the front of his shirt tightly as she raised her head to kiss him. After a while, her neck began to feel sore.

Mo Shenbai simply picked her up so it would be easier for her to kiss him.

Xu Youyou’s expression was extremely shy. She pouted and asked, “What are you doing? I’m cooking!”

Mo Shenbai had pulled her into the room under the gaze of the helpers. Everyone knew what they were doing.

Mo Shenbai was still not satisfied. He frowned slightly and said, “I wanted to have dinner together. I didn’t ask you to cook.”

Xu Youyou tilted her head slightly and looked at his handsome face with bright eyes as she said, “But I still owe you many, many meals…”

“There’s no rush. You have plenty of time to repay me in the future,” Mo Shenbai said as he thought to himself, ‘You have a lifetime to repay me…’

Xu Youyou bit her lip before she asked, “Why do I feel like you’re tricking me again?”

Mo Shenbai smiled slightly. He kissed her and tried to distract her as he asked, “Did you miss me today?”

Xu Youyou pretended to think about it. She frowned slightly before she smiled and said, “I did. What about you? Did you miss me?”

Mo Shenbai did not directly respond to the question. Instead, he asked, “Are my actions not enough to answer your question?”

Xu Youyou’s face flushed red again. Before she could say anything, she heard him say, “Then, I’ll answer you again.”

With that, he kissed her passionately again.



Even during dinner, the blush on Xu Youyou’s face had yet to go away. Although she was pouting and glaring at him, she could not conceal the smile in her eyes.

Mo Shenbai picked up some food for her and said, “Eat more.”

Xu Youyou thought of something. She swallowed the food in her mouth before she asked, “By the way, did you delete the videos of me on the Internet?”

“Yes,” Mo Shenbai replied as he reached out and wiped the crumbs off Xu Youyou’s lips. He said nonchalantly, “The Internet is very dangerous, and public opinion changes with the wind. I don’t want you to be targeted.”

Xu Youyou did not care about her videos or gaining fame anyway. She said, “Thank you.”

Mo Shenbai pinched her cheek and did not say anything.

After dinner, Xu Youyou felt like she had eaten too much so Mo Shenbai accompanied her for a walk outside.

The temperature at night was a little low.

Mo Shenbai removed his coat and draped it on her before he held her hands.

Xu Youyou looked at Mo Shenbai’s handsome side profile that was even more dazzling than the moon in the sky.

Mo Shenbai noticed her gaze and asked, “Why are you looking at me? Look at where you’re walking.”

Xu Youyou said seriously, “My boyfriend is too good looking so I can’t help but look at him a little longer.” Then, she added, “I’m going to participate in a competition soon. I won’t be able to look at you that time even if I want to.”

“Competition?” Mo Shenbai stopped in his tracks.

Xu Youyou nodded. “The Golden Brush Competition. If I win, I’ll receive the recommendation from the Art Association and might be able to study abroad.”

Mo Shenbai’s eyes darkened immediately. “You plan to go abroad?”
