My Evil Genius Wife

Chapter 279: Damsel in distress!!

Jia Fei leans forward and raises her brows at him, ” You have a doubt? Do you want to see how sexy I am? Huh?”

He smirks at her, however, his mocking smirk wiped off, when she started to take off her upper denim jacket.

She didn’t take it off completely but let it hang on her shoulder loosely. Because of this, the thin strap black top that she was wearing underneath was showing and was exposing her skin.

The black strap was contrasting on her glowing white skin, making his eyes waver.

His mouth opened in shock as he was speechless and wasn’t sure how to react in this kind of situation. His ears turned red as he gulped the saliva in nervousness.

She is crazy!!

He looked around and saw the waiter coming near to their table. His hands stretched on a reflex as he fixed her jacket for her, startling her, ” Are you crazy? Are you forgetting that you’re a celebrity?”

.....

She frowns at his words but upon seeing the waiter coming, she straightens her posture as well.

‘That was close.’ she breathed out in relief.

If someone else had seen her acting like this and took a picture of her, there would be multiple articles against her, adamant on proving her shameless and cheap.

Although she is used to being blamed like this and she gives a damn about her image. She has left the industry anyway, what worse can happen to her?

She didn’t even think twice about her reputation while slapping Hao Mei at the press conference, in front of all the media, but this time the situation was different.

She can’t let Yuhan be pulled into this mess. He is a businessman, being photographed with her will not do any good to him.

After the waiter passed by their table, Yuhan coughed awkwardly, ” So...why did you come to this table? You could have simply eaten with your friend.”

” Because of what you did earlier, she is glaring at me.” He said consciously, feeling Luo Dan’s glare on him.

Jia Fei turned around and saw Luo Dan giving her death glares. She immediately looked away and cleared her throat.

She knows that upon returning home, she will need to do all the cleaning and laundry to please her. Otherwise, she will not cook for her and will let her starve to death.

She looked at him awkwardly and fixed her jacket before saying, ” As I said earlier, I was just...trying to help you.”

He raised his brows at her, ” Help me with what?”

She sighed, ” I thought that you’re being forced to attend this blind date. Also, you looked kinda uncomfortable and hungry...you know? You looked different from the last time, so I thought to be a hero and save the damsel in distress.” she purses her lips embarrassingly after completing her words.

She thought that like in s, she will go over to his table and fight with the girl. Well, not exactly, but she will go and say, ‘ He is my man, go away.’ That was what she was planning to do at first, but it turned out that the girl was her die-hard fan.

How can she break her fan’s heart? Moreover, the girl was a sweetie. She happily left after taking pictures with her and didn’t even ask twice why she was asking her to leave on her date.

” I know how uncomfortable, forced blind dates can be. My mom also keeps nagging me to go on dates and find a boyfriend,” she said.

Jia Fei noticed his gaze on her and looked away before speaking, ” Moreover...since you helped me last time, I wanted to help you in return to balance the favor. I am not the type to take favors from anyone for free. It’s burdensome.”

Yuhan stared at her and couldn’t help but chuckle.

‘Damsel in distress, yeah sure.’

He nodded and asked, ” So....how is it going with that ‘drunk guy’? Is he seriously not your boyfriend? Then why did you go to pick him up at the lounge, that too at night?”

” You know, if I wouldn’t be there, it could have turned out really dangerous.”

She looked at him with complicated expressions and before she could respond, he added, ” You don’t have to answer if it’s too much. I am not that interested in other’s dating life...so.”

She chuckled and poured herself some wine in another glass and said, ” He is not my boyfriend. But I did confess to him. However, he rejected me saying that he thinks of me as a ‘younger sister’.”

” Seriously? That’s worse than being friend-zoned.” He exclaimed in surprise.

” Exactly!! I mean...you tell me, Am I not attractive? Do I act too much for a girl?” She turns to him and asks seriously while pushing a few strands of her hair behind her ear.

He was caught off guard upon hearing her question, ” Well, I don’t know? I think you are attractive and likable enough?” He answered hesitantly.

She frowned, ” Are you answering or questioning me? Can’t you be sure while saying that?”

” Woo hoo!! Why are you getting angry at me?” He raises his hands in defense.

However, upon seeing her expressions turning dull, he asked, ” Why are you even asking me that kind of question? Why do you need my validation to feel good about yourself?”

He sighed and added, ” He didn’t reject you because you’re lacking in any way. You’re amazing. There are many people who look up to you and want to be like you. How can you question your worth because of this? That’s such a stupid way to take rejection.”

” He simply doesn’t like you the same way as you do. There is nothing more to it.”

Jia Fei stared at him and pursed her lips in embarrassment.

With her music and her words, she always tries to encourage people to feel confident about themselves and don’t feel less of themselves. But after facing one rejection, she was doubting her worth.

How stupid of her!!

At night,

While having dinner, Han Zihao looked up at her and saw Xu Nuan gobbling up the food as if she was hungry for years. He chuckled and said, ” Eat slowly. It’s all yours.”

She paused while eating and smiled, ” I know. But I can’t help it. It’s delicious.”

” By the way, I am touched by how you prepared a lunch box for me. Except for my mother, no one prepared a lunch box for me,” she said while shoving rice in her mouth.

He stared at her upon hearing her words which she said casually but her expressions did change after saying that. He remembered that she was very close to her parents and it must not have been easy for her to recover from their unfortunate accident.

” If you want, I can do it daily for you. I like to show off my cooking skills, you know.” He commented, making her chuckle.

” Mr. Han, are you sure you want to do it daily? What if you get tired and bored of it after some time? Huh?” she asked teasingly.

He raises brows at her and leaned forward, ” What choice do I have? I don’t want my children to eat burnt food, you know.”

“.....”

She was speechless at his passive attack. What does he mean by burnt food? She knows how to cook instant noodles without burning them. Also, bread butter is also an option.

How can he say that she can’t cook?

As she was busy thinking about how he insulted her cooking, something hit her. Wait a minute.....

Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at him, realizing what he just said. Children?

” Are...are you crazy? Who wants to have children with you?” She said while looking away from him, trying to hide her blushed cheeks.

“If not me...then whom? Huh?” He asked while staring at her with a proud smirk.

She gritted her teeth at his shameless straightforward attitude and picked up a piece of meat and shoved it into his mouth, ” Shut up!!”

He chuckled and said, ” Jokes apart, I have something to talk to you about.”

” What is it?”

” Don’t make any plans for the upcoming weekend. We’re going somewhere.” He said.

She looks up at him in confusion, wondering what he is planning.

” Where?”

” On a trip!!”

” Trip? Why so suddenly?” She asks in confusion.

He smiles at her, ” After we started dating, we didn’t go anywhere. Because of our busy schedules, we can’t go on dates frequently. As your boyfriend, I want to spend some quality time with you.” He said honestly.

But upon hearing the word trip, her mind started to roam in another direction. The memories of the night that they spent at Han Mansion started to fill her mind again. Trip? TRIP!!
