Chapter 278 - Fussa, Japan



Chapter 278 - Fussa, Japan

"Canceled?" Bella squinted at Mo Li. "You mean the wedding was canceled? Why?"

Mo Li shrugged. "We were busy last night. I didn't have the time to think about it."

"…" For some reason, she couldn't stop herself from blushing. Only she knew what kind of busy was he talking about.

"But since this is what we wanted. Then… it's all good, right?" Mo Li pulled her towards his lap. "The Qin's are panicking too. The scandal… that Mr. Ting released was pretty good this time. I heard Mrs. Qin just bought tickets for abroad. She wanted to run away. If that is true, then she might have brought her daughter with her."

She pursed her lips in response. Mrs. Qin, her stepmother, would always think about benefits. Now that her name is as good as ruined, she would always think about things that could help her out. Bringing Sarah abroad would only make Mrs. Qin enemies with Daniel Rogers. So why would she want her daughter to run away on her wedding day? This doesn't make any sense at all.

"Oh, Mr. Ting called. He wanted to meet us. I figured we could meet him a few hours before our flight tomorrow. What do you think?"

'Hmmm." She nodded, her brain was still trying to analyze Mrs. Qin's actions. "I agree with you."

"What are you thinking?"

"Just wondering if Mrs. Qin was the reason why her daughter's wedding was canceled."

"She is. I am sure of that."

"But that doesn't make sense, right?" If she was Mrs. Qin, she would surely ask Daniel to help her out. Or at least make Sarah asked her soon-to-be husband. After all, Daniel is considered influential everywhere. He is the typical rich CEO that could shake the market and even ruin companies. So, why would Mrs. Qin ruin Sarah's relationship with Daniel? "Huh?"

"What's wrong?"

"Gabriel… He must have done something." This is the only way. The male lead should have access to magical things that could ruin people. Was it another scandal? Did he threaten Mrs. Qin? Bella widened her eyes as the realization hit her. Being a male lead is like a cheat itself.

A peculiar light flashed in Mo Li's eyes as he buried his face towards Bella's hair. He inhaled her scent as he started stroking her waist. Mo Li cannot intervene in Bella's business. However, this doesn't mean that he can't help the male lead achieve his goal. "Stop thinking about it."

"It's just weird. Not knowing the answer is really difficult. It's making me feel dumb. I mean… I might be dumb, but it's just— Why are you laughing?"

"I'm not. I just thought you are amazing."

"Stop smiling like that." She rolled her eyes. "And we are supposed to have breakfast. I can't eat while I'm in your lap."

"Really?" He tilted his head and smirked at her. Seeing her annoyed expression, he let out a peal of boisterous laughter, his warm voice echoed inside the house. For some reason, it sent a familiar warmth inside her. It made her feel lighter, better. "Eat here. I will feed you."

"Stop teasing me." She lightly slapped his hand on her waist and tried to stand, but Mo Li hugged her. "I'm hungry."

"For what?"

"Stop it. Why are you acting like a child?"

He chuckled. "I thought I was acting like I'm about to make a child with you?"

Once again, heat spread on her face.

"Alright. I will let you move," he said before he held both of his arms up. Seeing this, Bella snorted and sat on the chair next to him. "So… honeymoon. Korea than Japan, right? I honestly want to go to Japan first."

"We already booked our flight to Korea. Why would you want to go to Japan?" She started eating the porridge that he prepared for her. "This is sweet. I like it."

"I actually thought you like savory food?"

"I like both. Oh, you wanted to go to Fussa Japan? May I know why?" She actually did her research about this place and thought that Fussa is quite boring. Aside from Yokota Air Base and some shrines, there's really nothing much in this place.

"Firefly festival."

"Ummm… that's in June?"

"Is it?" He stared at her. "How did you know?"

"I did some research."

"Oh…" He nodded. "It's not so crowded and I haven't been there. Of course, we can go to Tokyo after Fussa. We can always shop in Tokyo. I especially like that shopping place where the close off the whole street. No car is allowed in there and everyone just walks and shop."

"Mr. Mo… your eyes sparkled when you talk about shopping." Bella immediately noticed that he seemed to be happier when talking about shopping and walking? "I don't remember you love shopping this much." She squinted. "Was it an ex-girlfriend?"

"What are you talking about? I was excited to spend money on you, alright."

She snorted. Of course, she doesn't believe him. "Be honest. Did you bring someone to these places?"

He lifted an eyebrow. If he will tell her that he once brought her to these places, he would only laugh at him. "No. But I would like to bring you out there." His gaze turned solemn. "When I visited those places before. It was for business. I thought about you and how I wanted to bring you to those places one day." And how he wanted to bring her to those places again.

"Alright… you don't have to cry. I believe you." She beamed. "So, you wanted to go to Fussa first before Tokyo? Are you sure?"

"Of course." That's the place where she agreed to marry him. Of course, he was sure.

"But we can't watch the fireflies."

"Don't worry about that. I can take care of that."

"You—Don't tell me you are going to waste some money on fireflies?"

He pursed his lips. "Money… I can always earn that," he smiled. Compared to the experience, money is considered nothing.
