Chapter 147 Pure Surrogacy & Refined Scoundrel Adopted Son 26

After they both sat down...

Chu Yuan reached for the knife and fork, but accidentally slipped and hit the table with a thud.

Ning Mochen raised an eyebrow at her from across the room, silently asking what was wrong.

As I was at it, I pushed a glass of cool, elegant red wine toward her.

Chu Yuan couldn't help but want to mock again, "This damn romance!"

It's so scary it makes my legs go weak.

She lowered her head, trying to hide her embarrassment, "I was in the water for a while, so I don't have much strength."

These words greatly pleased Ning Mochen, who chuckled meaningfully, "Is it because of the water, or something else...?"

"I can't be bothered with you!" Chu Yuan pretended to be angry.

Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be able to finish this meal.

Ning Mochen's lips were upturned, the smile never fading. He stretched out his long arm, took Chu Yuan's steak, and quickly and elegantly cut it into bite-sized pieces before standing up to return it to Chu Yuan.

"Eat up." He nodded.

Chu Yuan's face turned slightly red, not from embarrassment, but from genuine warmth.

Who doesn't like a man who treats them well?

Besides, Ning Mochen is rich and his skills are... well, because he's a greenhorn, his skills aren't that great, and he needs some training.

But with his exceptionally high intelligence, extraordinary talent, and the instinct of long-term fitness training, Chu Yuan felt that her happy sex life was definitely not too late!

I was indeed a little hungry.

After taking a few bites to fill her mouth, Ning Mochen's cup clinked against hers. "Congratulations on successfully landing the second female lead role in the drama 'Deep Palace.' The director and screenwriter have high hopes for you."

Chu Yuan picked up her cup and lightly clinked it against his. "You helped me?"

She is actually quite confident in her abilities.

It's not just because of the system's "talent enhancement water".

Also, because she had experienced three ancient worlds before, she had seen it all, and she was playing the role of a pampered concubine she had once played. How could she not do it with ease?

This question was purely a teasing and provocation of Ning Mochen.

Upon hearing this, Ning Mochen took a sip of the red liquid, and after slowly savoring it, her lips seemed even more luscious, making it impossible to look away.

He said, "I did nothing but kick Bai Weiwei out of the game."

Chen Si was one of Ning's confidants. Even though "The Palace" was a project that Ning valued, he still gave Chen Si 95% of the power instead of interfering in it himself.

Otherwise, how could he not have discovered that Gu Qingyan was using a fake identity to fight?

Chu Yuan already knew this, and nodded calmly, "That's good. You keep public and private matters separate. President Ning truly deserves to be the wise man I admire. Business is business, and feelings are feelings. They should be kept separate, otherwise things will easily get chaotic."

Ning Mochen's eyes were deep and unfathomable, filled with a complex and sharp light that Chu Yuan couldn't understand. "A compliment?"

“Yes, it’s a compliment.” Chu Yuan didn’t mince words.

After speaking, she swallowed the red wine, its velvety smooth texture and lingering aftertaste making her unable to resist licking her lips.

Ning Mochen stared at her with his pale eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, and then turned the glass upside down in the air. "I've finished it, why aren't you?"

Chu Yuan was slightly taken aback, thinking to herself, "Where is his gentlemanly demeanor as the male lead?"

Shouldn't you say something as generous and appropriate as "I'll do it, you can do whatever you want"?

But clearly, Ning Mochen didn't want to be generous and proper at the moment.

In normal situations, men are naturally expected to respect women and not urge them to drink, but when couples or even married couples are on a date...

Those who know, know.

In her daze, Chu Yuan couldn't even remember how many drinks he had made her drink.

Anyway, the 750ml bottle of Romanée-Conti that I opened is almost empty.

Chu Yuan also felt a bit lightheaded. Not only lightheaded, but also hot. She really wanted to take off her clothes and go outside to feel the cold wind and look at the stars.

She stood up and yanked open the glass door.

Ning Mochen hugged her from behind, "How about we make tonight our belated wedding day?"

Chu Yuan nestled in his arms, turning her face towards him. "Aren't you being a bit stingy? Is this what marriage is? Don't I deserve a wedding?"

Ning Mochen lowered his head and kissed her neck. "I have everything. I can give you anything you want, so what about what I want?"

"What do you want?" Chu Yuan had barely finished asking this question when Ning Mochen picked her up. She thought he was going to carry her straight to the bed, but no, the man carried her to the terrace and towards the other side of the pool.

Chu Yuan then noticed a heavy-looking, professional-looking astronomical telescope mounted on the terrace.

During the day, Ning Mochen said he saw her and Gu Qingyan here.

She suddenly became interested, broke free from Ning Mochen, and ran up to see what the starry world looked like for astronomy enthusiasts.

Unfortunately, she didn't know how to use it and couldn't figure it out after trying for a long time.

Ning Mochen stood behind her, enjoying her charmingly clumsy appearance to the fullest extent, before stepping forward to teach her how to operate the equipment.

His hot breath enveloped her earlobe. "Look closely, there's a shooting star tonight."

"Really?" Chu Yuan exclaimed excitedly.

She roughly understood why Ning Mochen was treating today as his wedding day...

Does he still believe in these things?

She was looking intently, while Ning Mochen stared at his wristwatch. Ten minutes later, he adjusted the angle for her, saying, "Here it comes."

"You can try making a wish upon a shooting star and see if it comes true."

He didn't know if a shooting star would appear, but he knew it definitely would!

As Chu Yuan listened to Ning Mochen's words, she stared at the sky even more intently. Sure enough, the next second, more than one meteor streaked down.

The Milky Way shines brightly in the night sky.

She immediately closed her eyes and quickly made a wish: to earn enough points as soon as possible to return to the real world and revive Ye Ye.
