Lee Xuiye frowned as a disheartening sight came in front of her. The entire living room had been filled with a smell of smoke that she caught the whiff of cigarettes in her nostrils.
Mo Lingtan seemed to have dozed off on the couch with a half-burnt cigarette in between his fingers and it had burnt his fingers as well.
Mo Lingtan felt movement near him as he opened his drowsy eyes and caught the sight of his wife's face.
"When did you come in?" Mo Lingtan asked in a hoarse voice.
Lee Xuiye didn't answer him, she just removed her sandals and wore her home slippers, opened the window to let some fresh air come inside, and then she took the cigarette from his fingers and doused it into an ashtray.
She sat on his lap and softly reprimanded him "You haven't mentioned that you are going to help this cigarette company to earn more by puffing all the butts in a single day by yourself. If you have this kind of intention, you should start considering helping a hospital, especially a cancer hospital as one day or another, you will need to go there. Also, what do you think about helping some matchmaking companies? As it wouldn't be necessary that a cancer hospital would be able to save you. If you leave this world someday, I need someone to rely on, no? What do you think about opening a matchmaking company as well to find me, your perfect replacement, huh?"
"You are also thinking of leaving me too, huh?" Mo Lingtan melodically asked.
"I am not, you are! Otherwise, you would have called me earlier if you felt upset, but it seems that I failed to be a good wife and that's why you decided to puff all the butts yourself instead of calling me." Lee Xuiye unhappily said. Unhappiness was clearly showing in her blue eyes.
"No, you are not! I failed as a son!" Mo Lingtan bitter smile.
Lee Xuiye's heart ached, seeing his smile. She immediately hugged him. Even though she didn't know what had happened to make him like this, she still said consoling words to him. "Everything will be alright, okay!" As she didn't know what else to say. She just patted his back which seemed to be very tense.
In the last five years, things were always like this, whenever Mo Lingtan was upset, he smoked alone to suppress his pain.
As no one was there with him to whom he could rely on.
There were only two people, Mo Yinan and Lee Xuiye, to whom he trusted but they also left him.
He was alone, therefore, smoking became his partner in his lonely days to the point that even though he was upset today, he came back and started smoking instead of calling Lee Xuiye.
Mo Lingtan was used to being alone.
However, he didn't know what had happened to him now, he felt a lump in his throat and his eyes moistened up as if his pain emerged all of a sudden and welled up through his rarely seen tears.
He tightly hugged her and hid his face in her neck and let his emotions build up.
The couple sat there for a long time, Lee Xuiye continued softly saying, "Everything will be alright, okay." and patted his back.
No matter how high he had reached to the point that everyone was envious of him and started taking him for granted, he was still a human who got hurt someday….sometimes.
Afterward, Mo Lingtan calmed down his emotions but he seemed to be very tired.
Lee Xuiye knew that she was not a good cook and she didn't want to dump his mood further down by having him eat her horrible dishes. So she simply called Lee Chang-You, she especially made her cook all of the favorite dishes of Mo Lingtan, and sent it here as soon as she could.
Meanwhile, Lee Xuiye helped Mo Lingtan to take a shower and made a mental note that it was high time she should learn to cook some dishes, especially Mo Lingtan's favorite dishes.
After the food had arrived, Lee Xuiye insisted on feeding him. Initially, Mo Lingtan rejected her idea but she didn't give in.
"No! I have ordered it so I will feed you. Otherwise, don't touch my mother's cooked dishes!"
Obviously, Mo Lingtan had to give in
in front of her protest.
Mo Lingtan felt that he was a child while Lee Xuiye was his mother rather than his wife who helped him to take a shower, fed him food, and coaxed him to sleep.
Nevertheless, these feelings warmed up his heart that he completely forgot Mo Mushan's hurtful words and dozed off.
However, Lee Xuiye's day hadn't ended yet. She took Mo Lingtan's phone and called to her spy which she had planted recently.
The call soon went through and as soon as it got connected, a worried voice came from the other side "Master…"
"It's me!"
"Missus?" Qi Zhu asked.
"Hmm, what happened today?" Lee Xuiye straightforwardly asked.
"That…" Qi Zhu was now in a dilemma. Even though she forcefully made him spy on Mo Lingtan by tricking him to reveal his secret to the world, Qi Zhu still showed loyalty to Mo Lingtan and came clear to Mo Lingtan as Qi Zhu was more worried about Mo Lingtan's wrath instead of revealing his secret.
Therefore, Qi Zhu let Mo Lingtan know that Lee Xuiye was threatening him for revealing his secret to the world if the former didn't become her spy.
Mo Lingtan thought that Lee Xuiye would hire some bodyguards who would keep an eye on him secretly. But who knew that his wife would become more stingy than him, that instead of spending some money on bodyguards, she threatened his assistant, Qi Zhu, to keep an eye on him.
Mo Lingtan really had to hand it to her as she still dared to call him a stingy husband!
However, being a doting husband, Mo Lingtan didn't reveal Lee Xuiye's cheap trick and let Qi Zhu continue to spy on him.
However, Mo Lingtan put one condition that Qi Zhu must let Mo Lingtan know first what information Qi Zhu was telling to Lee Xuiye. Otherwise, if some wrong information went to the high command of the house, then Mo Lingtan's little brother would have to suffer in the night.
However, today, Mo Lingtan didn't tell Qi Zhu that whether he should tell Lee Xuiye about what happened in the company or not.
Early in the evening, Lee Xuiye called him, but he didn't dare to pick up but who knew that Lee Xuiye would call him through Mo Lingtan's phone.
Qi Zhu felt like crying, 'What should I do now?'
Seeing that Qi Zhu was still silent, Lee Xuiye angrily asked "I am asking you what happened today? Why aren't you saying anything?"
"That…" Let it be, worst comes to worst, Qi Zhu would get some scolding from Mo Lingtan as Mo Lingtan didn't look good, therefore, Qi Zhu told her everything, starting from the shareholders' meeting till the conversation between Mo Mushan and Mo Lingtan.
Lee Xuiye felt pain in her heart somehow because of her, the things had become worst between Mo Mushan and Mo Lingtan
"Okay. Help me to set a meeting with my father-in-law!" Lee Xuiye said after a while.
It seemed that she needed to do something regarding this matter.
"Missus?" Qi Zhu was shocked.
Lee Xuiye wanted to meet Mo Mushan. Now Mo Lingtan would definitely scold him.
"I think...this is not a good idea. Master will be unhappy as well once he knows that you are meeting Mr. Mo."
"You don't have to worry about him, I will handle him! You just do as I say!" With that Lee Xuiye hung up while Qi Zhu wanted to cry!
