Lexus" face was cold and dark and had always released a very dangerous and heavy atmosphere ever since Ma Rong arrived early in the morning. This was because his own mother was treating this stranger in great care as if she was treating this man so familiarly, almost like a son. He was not jealous and Lexus then further convinced himself that he was not affected. For him, as long as his wife"s attention was on him, everything else can be ingnored and were not important.
"Here, Rong"er. Eat some of this. It is really delicious. These are all requested by mother." October calmly said with even tone. She then put some fish dishes on Ma Rong"s plate. Her movement was smooth and quick, as if it came to her so naturally.
"Berry~! You really care for me! I am so moved. Also, thank you, mother. I bet these dishes are delicious. These will be my favorites from now on." One could say that Ma Rong was born with a very glib tongue in addition to his charming personality. Because of this, people would immediately get swept on Ma Rong"s own pace.
Ma Rong gladly then accepted the dish from October with a big grin on his face, only for it to stiffen when he felt the obvious sharp blades slicing his skin. He recovered immediately as he ignored Lexus" glare with great difficulty.
Knowing from whom this malicious glare came from, Ma Rong made sure of himself to not look at his way. Still, because of how Ma Rong was, he still remained as thick-skinned and never backed down from this demon-like being. He knew all too well the danger lying dormant sitting beside October...for now, that is. However, for the sake of his amus.e.m.e.nt, he will bite the bullet.
That"s right! Ma Rong was doing this all because he found it so entertaining. Having to see October"s colorful facial expressions and careful movements with Lexus beside her were really cute. She never acted bashful or show any emotion when she was with her ex-boyfriend. If one would say, she acted as if her relations.h.i.+p with that guy was nothing to her at all.
And now, seeing the current October had made Ma Rong so relieved and happy yet a bit envious. Ma Rong also found Lexus" clear jealousy and his unmasked hatred toward him was very hilarious. He was really enjoying watching this clumsy couple, and the envy deep down inside of him was gnawing at his heart.
If Ma Rong was enjoying the "show" he was watching; unfortunately, it was not that good for Lexus. It would have been fine if it was just his mother, but then his wife"s attention was also on Ma Rong. What was more irritating was that he can hear this annoying voice of calling his wife "Berry, Berry!"
A swirling storm can be seen in Lexus" blue eyes. His eyes were darker than usual as his lips were pursed tightly, forming a thin fine line. He had his sit close to October and his arm was resting on her waist. While giving quick glares at Ma Rong, he still did not forget in doting on his wife.
Lexus looked at the harmonious air hanging around the three people. He had never ever experienced being left out like this. If he was not here, his mother and his wife would probably not mind that he was not with them. And now, it was like he was an outsider in his own home and in his own family. This was unprecedented! Unforgiveable!
Finally, their meal ended smoothly. Lexus had kept himself silent the entire breakfast. However, everyone who saw their young master"s face can tell that despite him not opening his mouth, he had a lot of things to say but was just holding himself to shut his mouth. The meal for him felt like like years, it was long and agonizing. To have to look at Ma Rong"s smiling face irked him so much.
"Let"s go." Lexus coldly said as he pulled October to their car, without waiting for Mother Song and Ma Rong to say anything. October nodded her head silently at the two as she obediently let herself be lead on by her jealous husband.
The two seated at the back as Lexus did not want to drive for now and had let his driver to driver them to work. His whole body was shrouded in darkness as his arms remained wrapped around October.
October felt uncomfortable in their situation and Lexus" actions was already starting to annoy her. She turned to him and said, "What are you thinking?"
Lexus was silent for a moment and did not answer October immediately. After some time, he turned to look at her with a frown on his handsome face.
"Should we leave to another city? Let"s have our honeymoon elsewhere. If you have somewhere you wanted to visit, just tell me and I"ll definitely take you there."
"No, I can"t do that." October instantly answered without much thinking. This only made Lexus" mood to sour even more. "I have work and you also have to manage your company. Besides, we will be officially married in two weeks. I"ll definitely make sure apply for a one week vacation."
Seeing that Lexus" mood had gone down significantly, she placed her hand on Lexus" cheek and stared at him hard, "If you don"t like Ma Rong to stay with us, I will arrange for another flat or apartment for him to stay."
If she knew that Lexus would act like this, she would not have insisted on inviting Ma Rong to live with them. Because of her selfishness, Lexus was feeling agitated and uncomfortable, always in a very bad mood.
Lexus looked at October"s worried face while looking straight at him, he could see his own reflection on her eyes. He reached out his hand and tilted her chin. Slowly, his head lowered and his eyes closed. Soon, his lips touched hers, landing ever so gently. It was sweet and full of affection. For once, his kiss to her was not harsh and dominating.
"Since you see him as your family, I"ll also accept him. I already told you before, your family is my family." After saying that, he kissed her forehead and smiled softly at her, making October"s heart to go aflutter.
"Let"s have lunch together later, just the two of us. My treat." October smiled as her eyes twinkled a brilliant light.
Lexus" finely shaped brow raised. This was a situation in which he never thought would happen. Hid smile grew bigger and nodded, "Okay, let"s do that."
"This would be like our first official date." October said without any change of her tone but her eyes were s.h.i.+ning. However, it was immediately replaced with a concerned look, "If some paparazzi"s saw us together, they might immediately post it online and it will spread like wild fire."
Lexus chuckled at this and confidently said, "Sooner or later, our relations.h.i.+p will be known to everyone. Let them have their speculations and doubts. Let them wonder about our relations.h.i.+p. Wouldn"t it be fun to see their reactions?"
Seeing how laid back Lexus was in this, October was still a little concerned. But Lexus was also right about one thing: their relations.h.i.+p will eventually be known to everyone. Also, there was nothing she was ashamed of. With that, she nodded her head and leaned on Lexus" hard chest.
October had already noticed that Yun Xixi was already starting to put the pieces together, especially since she saw her ring. Well, there might also be rumors already about her having a lover and that she was engaged. If Yun Xixi found out about her marriage, if the other employees will know, what will their reactions be?
