Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 205 - 192 How Am I Not Serious?

"Will she be difficult to get along with?" He was more concerned about this issue. With a scheming time bomb next to her now, he couldn’t help but worry.

"It’s hard to say, but anyway, it’s not like we’ll interact for too long. Just go your separate ways—if you like her, stay in touch, and if you don’t, avoid her as much as possible!"

Li Si felt that she had matured quite a bit now. At least, she wouldn’t be as naive and blind to people’s true nature as before. With vigilance in place, she wasn’t so easily moved or affected.

"But you should still be careful! People’s hearts are unpredictable! Baby, what did you have for lunch today? How about I arrange meals to be delivered to your dorm from now on?"

Leng Mochen was more invested in what she ate, given that dining out wasn’t entirely safe—even if issues like contaminated cooking oil and harmful additives weren’t as rampant as they might be in the future.

Li Si hurriedly declined, "No, don’t worry about that! If you make things too special for me, my classmates might start singling me out. I already transferred here later than everyone else and barely know anyone. Keeping a low profile is better!"

"Alright, as you wish! Let’s head home then!"

"Okay!" Li Si swayed gently along to the music in the car. After driving for a few minutes, she noticed the car entering a high-rise residential area named Fengye Residence.

"What is this?" She curiously glanced around.

"I bought an apartment here for you. It’ll make it more convenient for you to attend school!" Leng Mochen was focused on navigating the parking situation and took a moment to grab her hand, pressing a gentle kiss to it.

"Why didn’t you tell me earlier?" Li Si pouted in mock annoyance. She’d been kept completely out of the loop. She had originally planned to spend the weekend looking around for a suitable property to buy. Who would have thought that he’d act first and beat her to it?

"Wanted to surprise you! Get out of the car now!" Leng Mochen unbuckled his seatbelt and gently ruffled her hair to soothe her. How could he bear to let her run back and forth, exhausting herself?

Li Si got out of the car as instructed. The neighborhood was serene, with many of the lights in nearby homes glowing warmly at this hour. The building they parked under had a pavilion surrounded by lush trees, green lawns, and flowing water features, all creating a sophisticated and peaceful atmosphere.

"Not bad!"

Leng Mochen smiled, pleased to see her satisfied. "As long as you like it!"

Hand in hand, the two entered the elevator and ascended to the 16th floor. The layout had two units per floor, and he had purchased Unit 1.

Upon entering, Li Si eagerly followed and nodded in approval. The space was about 120 square meters with two bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious study. It was warmly decorated with a cozy style. Every home appliance and even kitchen utensils were fully equipped.

She explored the apartment, finally stopping in the spotless kitchen, her attention lingering there.

Leng Mochen noticed her gaze and teased, "You’ve been pacing around the kitchen quite a lot. Are you planning to personally cook a meal for your husband?"

Li Si lifted her chin in defiance, her face full of indignation: "What’s wrong with that? My cooking may not be the best, but I can learn! Don’t underestimate me, okay?"

Deep down, she made up her mind. When she had the time, she’d practice her cooking skills. Preparing a delicious meal for the person she loved could be an incredibly fulfilling experience!

"How about starting now?" Leng Mochen swiftly opened the fridge, glancing at her with an amused expression.

Li Si stared at the fridge packed full of various ingredients and internally wailed. Had she just fallen into a trap?

"Fine, I’ll cook! I’ll make you my specialty dish, okay?" Trying to maintain her composure, she grabbed some tomatoes and eggs from the fridge, planning to start with something simple.

Leng Mochen chuckled while pulling out spare ribs and pork belly. "Let’s have a balance of meat and vegetables!"

Seeing her look of distress, he couldn’t resist hugging her from behind and whispering near her ear, "How could you not let me have meat? Hm?"

The teasing warmth of his breath tickled her ear, and his suggestive words quickly turned her ear and cheeks a deep shade of red.

"Be serious!" She turned around, flustered and angry, trying to dodge his heated breath but couldn’t escape his proximity.

The scenes from last night flashed in her mind, fueling her embarrassment. She still remembered how he had teased and tormented her endlessly. She couldn’t understand how he had endured all this time before—did he seriously become addicted after indulging once?

"How am I not being serious? Did I say anything inappropriate?" Leng Mochen countered, feigning innocence with complete sincerity.

"I—I’m going to cook now, so stop bothering me!" Li Si lost the battle of words, worried he’d quickly turn into a wolf, especially since her back still felt sore. She hastily shoved him away and grabbed a tomato, preparing to wash it.

"Forget cooking. We need to have a serious discussion about this profound topic!" His pitch-black eyes fixed on her, revealing depths so intense they seemed to pull her in.

"I think you’re just—" She was about to call him out on his clear mischief, but before she could finish, he silenced her with his domineering actions, leaving no room for explanations.
