Xia Xin had no choice but to obediently agree.

After Sun Hu left, Xia Xin looked at Jing MO again and asked, “So, are we still going to finish this chess game?”

Jing MO glanced at the almost-filled chessboard but remained silent. He then turned and went to the study.

Xia Xin could only play with Bobo and Layle in the living room. Bobo was particularly well-behaved, keeping its voice down and even reducing the height of its jumps.

Xia Xin asked Bobo, “Do you have any idea why Jing MO is angry this time?”

Bobo replied, “It’s probably because you caused trouble. Every time I chase the nanny away, Jing MO gets angry. He punishes me by not giving me canned food for the evening.”

Xia Xin thought about it. It must be because she had caused trouble right after her debut, which was why Jing MO was upset.

Since her social media accounts had been taken over by Sun Hu, Xia Xin spent the entire afternoon watching TV out of boredom. In the evening, she decided to cook dinner herself as a way of apologizing. Although her dishes didn’t look as appetizing as Jing MO’s, they were at least edible.

Xia Xin went to knock on Jing Mo’s door. He hadn’t left his study all afternoon, and Xia Xin guessed that he might have fallen asleep. So, she knocked lightly on the door, but as soon as she finished, she heard Jing MO say, “Come in.”

Xia Xin took a deep breath, put on a smile, and entered the room, saying,

“Dinner’s ready. Come, let’s eat.”

Jing MO was sitting in his rocking chair, reading a book. However, he had been on the same page for almost the entire afternoon, unable to concentrate on it. He listened to Xia Xin’s words and replied simply, “Okay.” He then placed a bookmark in his book, closed it, and left it on the chair. He followed Xia Xin downstairs.

The dinner consisted of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, and white rice, which were Xia Xin’s specialties.

Xia Xin looked at the dishes, trying to conceal her embarrassment with a smile, and said, “Although it may not look very appealing, it doesn’t affect the taste.

Let’s eat!”

Throughout the meal, Jing MO didn’t make any comments. His demeanor was noticeably quieter than usual. Xia Xin nervously bit her chopsticks and gathered the courage to ask, “Is it because I caused trouble that you’re angry?”

Jing Mo’s hand, while picking up a dish, paused briefly. He looked at Xia Xin and asked, “Is that what you think?”

Xia Xin nodded.

Jing MO sighed deeply and said, “So you still haven’t understood why I’m upset. It’s not because of these incidents. I’m not afraid of you getting me into trouble. I’m just angry because, at the time, all you thought about was saving someone without considering how serious the consequences could be. When you told me about it, you didn’t even mention how severe MO Shu’s condition was. Have you ever thought about your own safety? Can you please take care of yourself and not constantly make me worry?”

Xia Xin stared at Jing MO in a daze, unable to find words to respond. Finally, she hesitated and said, “I didn’t think that much.”

Xia Xin’s previous life had not been easy. Her parents had passed away, friends had left her disappointed, and she had lived a solitary life, almost like a hermit. She was even attacked by a pride of lions in Africa. It had been incredibly frustrating. So, in this life, she was determined to make amends for the regrets of her previous life, doing everything in her power to keep the people she cared about close and protect her friends. That led her to neglect the fact that human nature could be treacherous at any time, and she had repeatedly fallen into difficult situations.

Xia Xin promised Jing MO, “You can rest assured, I’ll be more careful in the future and won’t let you worry anymore. Please don’t be angry.”

After Jing Mo’s expression had eased up, Xia Xin joked, “Besides, if anything happens, don’t I still have you by my side? In the past, I protected you. Now, you will protect me, right?”

Jing MO found it hard to get angry when Xia Xin said that. He let out a long sigh and smiled. He said, “I hope I can really protect you all the time.”

Jing Mo’s words made Xia Xin’s heart skip a beat. She was stunned for a moment before she put aside the strange feeling and said, “Alright, it’s all in the past. Let’s not think about it for now. Quickly help me take a look at this script. It’s my first time shooting a complete web drama and I don’t have any experience. I’m still a little nervous.”

Hence, Jing MO began to explain the process of filming to Xia Xin. She had to read the script and then communicate with the director. Xia Xin listened attentively.

After the two of them finished chatting, they realized that it was already past one in the evening. Xia Xin yawned and Jing MO said, “Let’s stop here for today.

Go to your room and rest.”

Xia Xin, still half-asleep, nodded again and went back to her room to sleep..
