Knew All Along

Following behind Chu Mo to the dining hall, Ye Jiu was still a little nervous.

She kept recalling the scene where she caused a scene in the dining hall and even threw the entire table of food on the floor.

At that time, all she could think about was to do something that would upset Chu Mo and the Chu family.

She did not care about their thoughts and even hoped that they would hate her.

That was because she was certain that Chu Mo would not let her leave!

In her previous life, Chu Mo's doting made her the murderer who destroyed the Chu family with her own hands.

She trampled on his heart and continued to ravage it.

Thinking of this, Ye Jiu raised her head and looked at the back of the person in front of her.

This tall body had once blocked too many insults for her, but it had also collapsed because of her..

Ye Jiu felt a little heartache and quickly followed Chu Mo. However, she stopped in her tracks the moment she entered the dining hall.

There were already a few side dishes on the table, all of which were her favorite dishes.

Nanny Li looked at Ye Jiu with a smile and said, "Young Master has instructed that these side dishes be prepared for Miss Ye. Whenever you want to eat them, I will bring them here immediately."

Chu Mo did not seem to hear Nanny Li's words. He walked to the dining table and pulled out a chair to sit down.

Ye Jiu smiled slightly and looked at Nanny Li. "Nanny Li, thank you for your trouble."

She walked to the seat opposite Chu Mo and sat down. She said softly, "Thank you."

Chu Mo froze instantly. He did not expect to hear Ye Jiu say "Thank you.".

He glanced at the food in front of him and said, "If you're hungry, hurry up and eat. Remember to tell Nanny Li what you want to eat."

The smile on Ye Jiu's face deepened. She had heard Chu Mo say that to her before.

At that time, she thought that it was Chu Mo's usual indifference.

However, at this moment, she heard a deep love from him.

"These are very good!" Ye Jiu said and picked up a piece of soy sauce chicken. "This is very delicious. Try it too!"

Chu Mo was stunned for a moment when he saw a piece of chicken fly into his plate.

Nanny Li happened to carry the glutinous rice root to the table and said, "Young Master doesn't eat chicken..."

"Ah..." Ye Jiu was stunned on the spot and immediately apologised, "I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

Just as she was about to take the chicken from Chu Mo's Plate, Ye Jiu's hand was pressed down by Chu Mo. "It's okay..."

Ye Jiu retracted her hand guiltily and did not know what to do for a moment.

Nanny Li shook her head and sighed. "I told you that you two people have to eat together more often!"

"Look, Miss Ye doesn't even know what Young Master likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat!" Nanny Li could not stop nagging.

"Alright, Nanny Li! Go and do your work!" Chu Mo saw that Ye Jiu was so embarrassed that her face was red, so he quickly stopped Nanny Li.

Nanny li shrugged and said, "Okay, okay, okay! I'll go and make sweet osmanthus congee for you guys! This congee will only be delicious if it's made slowly!"

After Nanny Li finished speaking, she turned around and left the dining hall.

Chu Mo looked at Ye Jiu's uneasy look and actually felt that it was a little funny.

Finally, Ye Jiu took a deep breath and decided to get rid of the awkwardness. "What do you like to eat? I'll cook it for you next time, okay?"

Hearing this, Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and blurted out, "You know how to cook?"

"Uh..." Ye Jiu paused for a moment and the awkwardness at the corner of her mouth appeared again. "I can ask Nanny Li to teach me!"

The corner of Chu Mo's mouth curled up slightly, as if he was very satisfied with the answer.

However, Ye Jiu's change was too fast. Chu Mo did not know if she was preparing something...

The two of them ate in silence.

After the meal, neither of them spoke again.

Finally, Chu Mo stood up and prepared to leave.

"Chu Mo!" Ye Jiu did not know why she suddenly called his name.

Chu Mo stood still and looked at Ye Jiu, but he did not speak.

"I..." Ye Jiu gritted her teeth, but she did not know what she wanted to say.

Chu Mo looked at Ye Jiu silently, and the two of them just stood there quietly.

"You're injured, sleep early." After Chu Mo said that, he did not wait for Ye Jiu to speak again and turned to leave the dining hall.

Ye Jiu looked at Chu Mo's back as he left, and she felt a slight pain in her heart.

"Miss Ye, Young Master is concerned about you. "Nanny Li walked to Ye Jiu's side and instructed the two servants to clean up the tableware while comforting Ye Jiu.

Ye Jiu lowered her head and smiled. "I know..."

Yes, she knew. She knew all along...

Even in her previous life, she had deeply felt Chu Mo's concern..

However, she was unwilling to admit and accept it!
