When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 776: No Matter Whom I Betray, I’ll Never Betray Her (6)

In a daze, Mu Ke had already stopped at the entrance of a restaurant. The two got out of the car and entered a private room. The air conditioner blew warm air, feeling a bit hot. Sheng Jiayu took off her coat and put it aside. After ordering the meal, she felt something was off.

She pondered for a few seconds before realizing that Mu Ke opposite her was still wearing his black down jacket. Sheng Jiayu said, "Aren’t you hot?"

Mu Ke paused, reached out, and pulled down the zipper of his down jacket a little, just a little, without taking it off.

Sheng Jiayu was more puzzled, staring at Mu Ke’s collar for a few seconds before she suddenly realized a problem.

When Mu Ke went out today, he wore a shirt underneath with a down jacket over it. His shirts were always worn neatly, with the buttons fastened tightly. But now...

From his neckline, Mu Ke’s collarbone could be seen, which meant... Mu Ke wasn’t wearing a shirt, and he wasn’t willing to take off his jacket. There was only one possibility...

Sheng Jiayu suddenly laughed, leaning forward slightly, "Mu Ke, could it be that... you’re going commando?"

As she spoke, Sheng Jiayu couldn’t help but laugh. Mu Ke’s face was tinged with an unnoticeable blush, yet he remained composed, "Once it was touched by someone, I threw it away."

Sheng Jiayu’s smile froze; he threw away the clothes because He Xin had hugged him?

Although there was really no need, it wasn’t the clothes’ fault, but Sheng Jiayu still couldn’t help but chuckle. Mu Ke’s heart truly had only her, and no one else could enter his heart. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Sheng Jiayu blushed a little, looked away, drank some water, and shifted the topic, "There’s nothing happening at the bookstore. I’ve agreed with Yanxi to pick up Xiao Yi and Little Tangdou this afternoon and let them stay at my mom’s place for a couple of days. Her leg is inconvenient right now, and I’m afraid she’ll be bored."

"Alright."

Mu Ke dutifully played the chauffeur, first going to Lake Bay Villa to pick up the two little kids, then bringing them to Xu Family’s Old Mansion.

Xu Qingru was genuinely pleased, especially by Little Tangdou, whose innocent appearance was very endearing. Su Weiyi was becoming more adorable, and her dark eyes increasingly resembled Tang Yanqi’s.

Having the two little ones, Xu Qingru no longer needed Sheng Jiayu and urged her to accompany Mu Ke.

Sheng Jiayu was helpless. She walked to the living room, seeing Mu Ke sitting upright on the sofa, with the TV broadcasting international stock market news.

"Do you trade stocks?"

Sheng Jiayu casually asked as she sat beside him, and Mu Ke nodded, "When I first got that sum of money, I tried playing with it a bit."

That sum of money?

Sheng Jiayu quickly realized he meant the fortune from selling the jewelry set. She was really just asking casually, not intending to continue the topic.

Yet she heard Mu Ke say unexpectedly, "That matter holds no actual significance for me. If it must be said, it probably gave me the means to support you."

Sheng Jiayu just raised the flower tea to her lips when she suddenly heard the man say this. Her hand shook, nearly spilling the teacup.

She quickly steadied herself, turned her head to look at Mu Ke, only to see a hint of amusement in his eyes. Sheng Jiayu helplessly rolled her eyes.

If those master designers who idolize him heard this, would they cry?

Actually, Sheng Jiayu hardly needed his support. Besides, with Mu Ke’s status, he wasn’t likely lacking money. Yet he was still willing to work hard for her. That is what truly matters, isn’t it!
