"Did I gain weight?" Ye Xiao Xiao asks with a pout.
She has been so busy recently that she never thought of observing herself. But even if she had, she is sure food would not do that.
From her childhood, the furthest she can remember, she has always been so skinny that people made fun of her.
How the hell did she manage to gain weight in the last few days? Is it because she is always sharing a meal with Lu Min Chen?
"You look more beautiful like this," Lin Mo replies. "Ah...you are good in any form."
He thinks that every side of her is cute. She will be cute if she becomes as far as a pig, or if she turns as thin as a piece of paper.
It is just so pitiful for him that she can never be his. And that makes him feel like crying.
"Come on," he says to cheer himself up. "Let us eat."
Ye Xiao Xiao nods in agreement. And she sinks into her eating habit, the habit she had when she was still at her dad's place.
"Xiao Xiao," Lin Mo calls at last. And Ye Xiao Xiao looks at him.
"About that day, I am really sorry..." He begins. He still feels like apologising continuously.
And Ye Xiao Xiao purses her lips. "I will leave if you bring about the past once again," she says.
She chose to forgive him and forget all about the things that had happened that day.
And she hates seeing Lin Mo in this state, apologising continuously.
"Um...I am ...sorry," he says quickly. "I will not speak about it again."
"Good!" Ye Xiao Xiao says. But she purses her lips again. "Brother Mo, I am really sorry that I cannot be with you. Just know that you are the best person in my life..."
Lin Mo smiles bitterly. "Now see, who is bringing this up again?"
Ye Xiao Xiao sighs. It hurts her to see him like that. She had never known that he would be attracted to her romantically.
"Let us talk about something else," Lin Mo says.
"Something like?" Ye Xiao Xiao asks back. It had been fun growing up with a caring friend like Lin Mo.
"Let us talk about me then?" Lin Mo proposes, looking at Ye Xiao Xiao with a calm expression.
Ye Xiao Xiao laughs, thinking that it is just some of his jokes. She has grown up with him, how the hell are they going to talk about him?
Even though Lin Mo feels good that she can laugh like that because of him, he still pinches her nose. "I am being serious here!"
"Tsk tsk," Ye Xiao Xiao chuckles. "Okay, I will listen. Tell me what you feel like saying."
Lin Mo sighs. "It seems like it was never a good idea," he says with a smile. "Just forget it, there is nothing to talk about me."
"Ah! Brother Mo? I was only kidding," Ye Xiao Xiao says quickly. "I want to hear it please..."
