Chapter 1722: The Same Birthmark (Part Nineteen)
Mrs. Gu: [Isn’t Big Brother Qian on leave during New Year’s Day?]
Mo Fei: [Who knows? He’s been chasing after a big case recently. I don’t think he has the time.]
Qian Yikun was driving properly. However, he kept glancing at Mo Fei from the corner of his eyes.
Mo Fei suddenly lifted the phone in her hand and showed it to Qian Yikun. “I’m chatting with Yuwei. Must you be so worried?”
Qian Yikun was not angry that Mo Fei saw through him. Reciprocating her straightforwardness, he asked, “How would you know I was looking at you if you weren’t looking at me too?”
“…” Mo Fei did not know how to answer him.
That sounded very reasonable.
“Yuwei’s asking if you have time on New Year’s Day. Gu Juexi and the others are going to the hot spring. Nalan Chunbo and Wen Shan will be going too.” Mo Fei continued to chat with Ye Yuwei and told Qian Yikun about this matter without much sincerity.
Qian Yikun calculated the time. After New Year, there were still five days before their wedding. That could work.
However, the wedding… At the thought of the wedding, Qian Yikun looked at Mo Fei again. Mo Fei felt a chill down her spine under his intense stares. “Qian Yikun, you’re not suppressing some ill intention to harm me, are you?”
Qian Yikun sneered. “It’s good enough if you don’t go around harming people instead.”
His answer seemed to sound like a joke, but it managed to silence the car.
Due to that sentence, Mo Fei tapped a series of random codes on the screen and sent the message.
Mrs. Gu: [What?]
After hearing the notification prompt, Mo Fei snapped back to her senses and continued to type.
Mo Fei: [Sure, Qian Yikun said yes.]
Mrs. Gu: [Your wedding seems to be on the fifth of January. There should be enough time.]
Mo Fei: [Hee—]
Mo Fei: [The wedding? It doesn’t exist!]
Mo Fei: [Even if it exists now, it won’t exist eventually!]
Mrs. Gu: [What’s with your reaction? Do you know how thoughtful Big Brother Qian is? You’ve no idea that Big Brother Qian has asked my in-laws about your household registration, but they haven’t been in the country long enough to know. So, they aren’t really the best people to ask.]
Mrs. Gu: [Big Brother Qian seems to have asked Mrs. Ding too.]
Mo Fei: [What?]
Mo Fei: [Confused Nick Young.jpg]
Mo Fei: [What’s wrong with him?]
Mrs. Gu: [That’s enough from you.]
Mrs. Gu: [You really don’t know how to cherish a man like this. I’d be so happy if Gu Juexi gives me one-tenth of the treatment that Big Brother Qian gives you.]
Mo Fei: [Screenshot taken. The enemy will arrive in two seconds.]
After sending that message, it became silent on the other side of the phone. It seemed like it did not take even two seconds.
However, due to Ye Yuwei’s words, Mo Fei could not calm down for a long time. Or rather, it was not that she could not calm down, but that waves of emotions had been stirred up.
“Why the fifth of January?” Mo Fei continued fiddling with Qian Yikun’s phone without raising her head. She sounded normal too.
“Auspicious day,” Qian Yikun answered nonchalantly.
“Oh,” Mo Fei answered without much sincerity. “It’s my birthday.”
Qian Yikun turned around and looked at Mo Fei. Since she did not have any doc.u.ments that pointed to her ident.i.ty, no one knew when her birthday was.
“Mo Tian told me. He brought me to the isolated island that day. So, that day became my birthday.” Mo Fei looked up with a smile. “I thought you knew.”
Qian Yikun opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but his throat felt dry and painful.
“If he took you away that day, perhaps today’s your birthday. After all, he couldn’t have brought you to the island on the first day you were born,” Qian Yikun said casually, trying to lighten the atmosphere.
“Yuwei said that you went to see Mrs. Ding?” Mo Fei swiped a few times on his phone before returning it to him.
Qian Yikun peered at the phone sneakily from the corner of his eyes. Then, he quickly retracted his gaze, pretending not to see anything at all.
