Xu Yisen pretended not to notice the curiosity in her eyes, then asked, "Ru Jia didn't give you a hard ti, did she?"
Zheng Rujia was once Xu Yisen's middle school classmate. The always low-key Xu Yisen had agreed to an interview with Zheng Rujia due in part to their past acquaintance.
"No." After a few seconds, she asked, "Weren't you watching the whole ti backstage just now?"
The implication being... why ask so many pointless questions?
The compartnt fell into silence once again. Qin Muni knew she had extinguished Xu Yisen's rare enthusiasm to start a conversation, but she didn't care. She shrugged and picked up her phone from her lap to continue browsing Weibo.
If it were before the divorce, whenever the atmosphere between them beca awkward, or a topic ended because of one of them, Qin Muni would always take the initiative to change the subject.
But now, she quietly continued playing on her phone.
Xu Yisen couldn't help but reflect... the difference before and after the divorce is quite noticeable!
"You did well earlier."
The magnetic male voice resonated in the compartnt again, causing Qin Muni, who was engrossed in her phone, to be taken aback.
Xu Yisen was praising her? This... is a bit unusual!
The last ti they did an interview together, she had tried her best to appear graceful and elegant, fearing she'd embarrass him, yet she didn't even get a smile from him.
But this ti, she deliberately teased Xu Yisen several tis on the show, and he actually praised her performance as good?
"Yisen."
"Hmm?"
"Do you... need my help with sothing?"
Xu Yisen raised an eyebrow slightly, asking, "Why do you say that?"
"You're acting a bit strange today."
"...!"
Seeing the faint helplessness in Xu Yisen's expression, Qin Muni assud she had guessed his thoughts correctly. She put away her playful smile and seriously focused on Xu Yisen as he drove.
She slowly said, "My bank account only has the two billion divorce settlent you had Secretary Tang transfer... No, you're not in such dire need to borrow money from ."
The only thing she could think of that Xu Yisen might need help with was borrowing money. But Xu Yisen was so wealthy, why would he need to borrow money from her?
Seeing her speculating about his intentions on her own, Xu Yisen felt inexplicably helpless. He said, "You're overthinking it."
"I thought so too. So what do you need my help with?"
Xu Yisen's unusual behavior piqued Qin Muni's curiosity. She wholeheartedly believed Xu Yisen needed sothing from her and was eager to know what difficulty he had encountered.
The compartnt once again descended into silence. Qin Muni saw Xu Yisen press his thin lips tightly, unwilling to speak, and assud he had so unspeakable trouble. She parted her lips generously and said, "Just tell . After all, we were once married; I'll naturally help if I can."
Qin Muni's response left Xu Yisen in a bit of a dilemma, and a mischievous urge to tease her sprouted in his heart.
His gaze focused on the road ahead, his dark eyes rippling with faint waves, with a hint of a brilliant smile seemingly blossoming behind them.
He spoke, "Mom has always wanted a daughter-in-law, so..." Could you help out by playing the role of my wife for her?
Before Xu Yisen could finish, Qin Muni interrupted him with a knowing look, "So you want to speak well of Xia Yuge in front of Mom?"
Her speculation left Xu Yisen montarily stunned, completely unprepared for Qin Muni to connect it to Xia Yuge.
Before he could deny it, he heard Qin Muni say seriously, "I'm afraid I can't help you with that, because I truly can't bring myself to praise Xia Yuge."
