The next morning, when Chen Mo woke up, Xiao Yu was already gone from his side. After washing up, he walked into the hall and caught the aroma drifting from the kitchen. Just as he was about to head over, Xiao Yu came out carrying a clay pot and carefully set it on the dining table, just as she always did.
"Perfect timing. Come eat breakfast. I made bird's nest porridge."
When the lid was lifted, the fragrance spread through the room, making Chen Mo's stomach growl as his appetite surged. "My Xiao Yu is getting more and more like a master chef."
Xiao Yu sat beside Chen Mo and handed him a bowl of porridge. "Stop sweet-talking. You need to eat more. You only just recovered, yet you still wouldn't behave all day." Thinking of their intimacy the night before, Xiao Yu felt both annoyed and embarrassed.
"I'm mentally exhausted, not physically exhausted. More exercise helps relieve stress!" Chen Mo said with complete seriousness.
"Bad man." Xiao Yu pinched Chen Mo's waist and began eating as well. Then she suddenly remembered something and paused with her spoon in hand. "Those beautiful colored patterns on the wedding rings yesterday... were they really Mermaid fish scale patterns?"
"If I said they were, would you believe me?"
"Yes."
"Silly girl, your husband has never even seen a real Mermaid, yet you believe me so easily."
"If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have let you trick me away."
"But there was one thing I didn't lie about. They really were inspired by a Mermaid." Chen Mo stared straight at Xiao Yu. "The design inspiration came from you."
"Do I have patterns like that on me?" Being compared to a Mermaid by Chen Mo filled Xiao Yu's heart with sweetness. She loved it
