Chapter 127: Xu Youyou, What the Hell Are You Wearing?! It was really embarrassing, but what Xu Youyou was going to do next was even more embarrassing. She really regretted her decision at this moment. Why did she listen to Su Lanxu’s unreliable advice? However, now that she was at this point, she knew there was no turning back.

Suddenly, music began to play.

Xu Youyou could only endure the shame and embarrassment in her heart as she danced to the music and sang in a sweet voice:

No one else’s smile is as sweet as yours.

Even the sun during summer isn’t as dazzling as you.

My love for you burns out at 105 degrees!

Mo Shenbai was shocked by the sudden performance. However, as he watched her dance and sing, joy surged in his heart. He could not help but lower his head and laugh. His eyes were like stars at this moment.

Xu Youyou did not dare to look at him at all. She was ready to go all out. At most, she would move back to her family home tomorrow. She continued singing:

I feel very safe when you tell me not to be afraid.

Because of you, I gain the determination to pursue my dream.

This song was very popular for a while. It was always played at parties. At that time, Su Lanxu had brought her to a dance studio to learn the dance and even bought the costume. However, Xu Youyou was so embarrassed that she refused to accompany Su Lanxu to perform the dance.

This performance was a last resort. If it were not because she did not have a present for Mo Shenbai’s birthday, she would not have put on the costume and performed.

After suppressing his laughter, Mo Shenbai raised his head and watched Xu Youyou perform with a smile on his face. Her hair that brushed against her cheeks felt as though it was brushing against his heart as well, causing his soul to tremble.

Although the dance was simple, Xu Youyou danced and sang with all her might. After a while, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. When she finally stopped, she was panting slightly. She looked at Mo Shenbai with her sparkling eyes and said earnestly, “Mo Shenbai, happy birthday!”

One year of age, one gift, and endless joy.

Mo Shenbai stared at her with a burning gaze. His heart beat violently in his chest as though it wanted to leap out of his body. He felt like devouring her. He had not celebrated his birthday for many years, and he had no wish to celebrate his birthday. In fact, he even wished he could cut out this day from his life. However, tonight, she made him feel that this day was not too bad.

Xu Youyou was still panting. Her bright eyes studied his reaction. It was probably because she liked him, she could not help but smile brilliantly.

Mo Shenbai’s eyes were brilliant, and his smile was gentle as he looked at her.

The two did not speak, letting silence permeate the room. An ambiguous air lingered between the both of them.

In the end, Mo Shenbai broke the stillness first. He strode toward her steadily as though he was walking toward his destiny.

Xu Youyou gulped as Mo Shenbai drew closer and closer. She did not know why she was so nervous.

When Mo Shenbai arrived in front of her and was about to speak, Xu Jialu’s lazy voice rang from behind.

“Old Mo, don’t say that I’m not good to you… I…”

Xu Jialu had just stepped into the house when his gaze fell on Xu Youyou. His words got stuck in his throat immediately.

Mo Shenbai frowned. He turned around and saw Xu Jialu and Bo Qi looking at Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou was dumbstruck as soon as she heard Xu Jialu’s voice.

‘Help! Why must I go through even more embarrassment on Mo Shenbai’s birthday?!’

Xu Youyou wanted to cry, but no tears came out. She really wished the ground would open up and swallow her whole.

When Xu Jialu regained his senses, he roared furiously, “Xu Youyou! What the hell are you wearing?!”

Xu Youyou was so frightened that she trembled slightly. She lowered her head immediately, not daring to look up.

Mo Shenbai frowned. He turned around and quickly draped his coat on her. Then, he said in a very soft voice, “Go upstairs first.”

Xu Youyou looked at him with an aggrieved expression on her face.

Mo Shenbai said, “It’s okay. Go upstairs and change first.”

Although Mo Shenbai thought there was nothing inappropriate about the costume, he still thought it was better for her to change since there were other men around.

Xu Youyou nodded and hurried up the stairs. Her fair hands gripped Mo Shenbai’s coat tightly, afraid that it would slip off. The sleeves flapped in the air as she ran. In Mo Shenbai’s eyes, she looked unbearably cute.

After Xu Youyou vanished from sight, Mo Shenbai turned around.

Bo Qi said teasingly, “Old Mo, I didn’t expect your taste to be so… unique…”

Xu Jialu turned around and scolded, “What are you laughing about? That’s my sister! Erase that image from your mind! Otherwise, I’ll gouge your eyes out!”

Bo Qi was stunned by this revelation. When he regained his senses, he said, “So it’s your sister! No wonder, no wonder…”

Mo Shenbai said with a hint of disdain, “Why are both of you here?”

Mo Shenbai’s tone was completely different from when he spoke to Xu Youyou.

Bo Qi closed the door and walked in. He said with a smile, “What day is it today? We didn’t forget so we came to drink with you.”

“No need,” Mo Shenbai rejected him decisively and ruthlessly.

‘Who wants to drink with two men? Isn’t it nicer to watch someone sing and dance?’

Bo Qi placed his arm around Xu Jialu’s shoulder and smiled. “If I knew you had such a cute girl to accompany you, I wouldn’t have bothered. I even brought the best bottle of wine from my bar here.”

The expression of Xu Jialu, who was holding the bottle of wine in his hand, darkened immediately. He gritted his teeth and said, “Right now, I only want to him on the head with this bottle of wine.”

Bo Qi did not try to dissuade Xu Jialu. Instead, he said, “Lulu, this is all your fault! This is a young couple’s world! Why must you interfere?”

Xu Jialu elbowed Bo Qi’s chest and said, “Get lost! If you call me Lulu again, I’ll kill you!”

Bo Qi rubbed his chest and shook his head helplessly. Then, he turned to walk into the living room.

Mo Shenbai, who remained calm from the beginning until now, said, “She just wanted to give me a gift. Don’t scare her.”

Xu Jialu sneered. “Ha! If we didn’t come tonight, would it be as simple as a gift?!”

Xu Jialu was also a man. How could he not know about the bad thoughts that men had? If Mo Shenbai could control himself, then Mo Shenbai definitely did not like women.

Mo Shenbai did not deny nor admit it. He sat on the couch and asked Bo Qi, “Why are you back?”

Bo Qi leaned lazily against the couch and said nonchalantly, “Why can’t I come back?”

“Qin Siyu…”

As soon as these words were spoken, Bo Qi frowned, and an impatient expression appeared on his face as he said, “She’s just a woman. She might be able to last a few days outside without me, but in the end, she’ll still cry and beg me.”

Bo Qi’s bar was closed because of Qin Siyu.
