"What are you doing here?" Ye Mubei was brooding in his study.
"You must be tired, I've cut some fruit for you." Shen Ruoxi said, her eyes smiling as she placed the fruit plate in front of him.
"You can leave, I don't want to hear more lies you use to deceive..." Ye Mubei turned his head and his gaze caught a glimpse of the fruit plate with its tempting fruity aroma, and his anger dissipated significantly.
Ye Mubei was no ordinary man; how could he not see Shen Ruoxi's little ploy.
Was she... trying to please him?
Ye Mubei hooked the corner of his mouth, pretending to be casual as he tested her, "For this kind of thing, just let the butler do it."
"I've been staying at your house for free, I should do something to repay you," Shen Ruoxi said, her face calm with no discernible emotion showing.
But her heart cared greatly about his mood.
The cantaloupe Ye Mubei had just put in his mouth suddenly lost its flavor.
So it was for... rent?
