Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 769: Don’t You Think There’s Something Wrong with Them?

Gu Moqian handed the menu back to the waiter, pulled Ji Wei into his embrace gently, and said, "Hungry? Want to get some snacks to fill your stomach first?"

Ji Wei smiled and shook her head, "I’m not hungry."

Her gaze involuntarily drifted again toward the couple sitting opposite them.

Since coming back this time, Ye Cheng felt completely different.

A man so cold and aloof, yet his care for Zimei was utterly meticulous. The tenderness in his eyes when he looked at Zimei seemed as though it could drown someone.

Have the two of them finally reconciled after going through so many ups and downs?

Zimei is undoubtedly a captivating woman. It’s no surprise Ye Cheng likes her. But thinking about Xia Duoduo’s unrequited love for Ye Cheng for so long, if she were to see them together, she’d definitely feel heartbroken.

Thinking about this, Ji Wei’s mood was slightly affected.

One exquisite dish after another was brought to the table, yet she barely picked up her chopsticks. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Why aren’t you eating? Not to your liking?" Gu Moqian asked with concern.

"It’s good." Ji Wei poked at the white rice in her bowl with her chopsticks, curling her lips into a faint smile.

Gu Moqian looked at her for a moment, then suddenly picked up his chopsticks and started adding food to her bowl. As the bowl rapidly piled up into a small mountain, Ji Wei’s eyes widened in surprise.

So much!

Is he trying to fatten her up?

"Eat more so you’ll have energy tonight," Gu Moqian met her stunned gaze, speaking with utmost seriousness.

Ji Wei’s face flushed bright red in an instant.

Too audacious—there were people sitting next to them!

Zimei chuckled lightly at his words, "I envy you two, such a strong relationship still."

Ji Wei, clearly flustered, tugged at the corners of her lips awkwardly, then lowered her head and silently shoveled food into her mouth. Nearby, Ye Cheng’s unusually gentle voice resonated, "Want to eat shrimp? I’ll peel it for you."

"Sure." Zimei’s response was equally sweet.

Ji Wei glanced up at Ye Cheng across the table, watching him attentively peeling shrimp for Zimei, before directly feeding it into her mouth.

For a moment, she seemed captivated, her mouth full of food but forgetting to swallow.

"Want shrimp too?" Gu Moqian’s voice suddenly sounded above her head, startling Ji Wei.

She waved her hand repeatedly, "No, no, I’m good."

The food in her bowl had long filled her stomach; she couldn’t eat another bite.

The dinner was oddly harmonious. The ones speaking most were Gu Moqian and Ye Cheng, while Ji Wei occasionally chimed in. Zimei maintained her smile throughout, her gaze never straying an inch from Ye Cheng.

After finishing the meal, Ye Cheng mentioned Zimei’s habit of sleeping early. He said his goodbyes and left with her.

Gu Moqian also led Ji Wei to his car.

After the Maybach started, Ji Wei replayed the dinner scene in her mind, feeling that something was amiss but couldn’t quite pinpoint what.

She pondered for a while before voicing the doubt in her heart, "Mo Qian, don’t you feel... somehow this time meeting Mr. Ye and Zimei, the two of them seemed different than before?"

Gu Moqian took her small hand into his palm, turned his head, and quietly looked at her for a long moment.

Ji Wei felt baffled by his gaze and blinked, asking, "Is there rice on my face?"

Gu Moqian was amused by her words and broke into a soft smile. He reached out and pinched her delicate cheek, "Do you think you’re three years old? Saving grains of rice for your next meal?"

Ji Wei’s face reddened, and she tried to maintain a serious expression as she looked at him, "Be serious. Don’t you think there’s something off about Mr. Ye and Zimei?"

Gu Moqian’s eyes darkened slightly, and after a moment of silence, he slowly opened his mouth to speak, "The way they are is perfectly normal."

His gaze seemed a bit distant, as though he was lost in some thought.
