C51 (2/2)
Mo Lan was shocked. He stood rooted to the spot, unable to react for a long time.
The Xu Yaoxi he knew shouldn't be like this. Wasn't she always so gentle and sunny?
Seeing Mo Lan in a daze, Xu Yaxing realized that he had actually blurted out the words in his heart.
She tidied her hair and instantly put on an apologetic smile. ”I'm sorry, Mo Lan. I was too annoyed so I could speak to you like that …” ”Don't be angry.”
Seeing her gentleness return, Mo Lan quickly forgot about the face she shouted at him. He even asked in concern, ”Brilliant Star, what happened?”
Xu Yaoxing knew that she couldn't abandon the man in front of her so quickly. If she kept him, it would be of great use in the future. She sighed and told Mo Lan about the conversation that had happened after meeting Chu Lingyu today.
At the end, she covered her face in grievance and started sobbing softly.
It was easy for a beauty to cause others to feel pity for her when she cried. Not to mention that Mo Lan had no way to resist her from the start.
If not for the fact that he was still near the company and he was afraid of being seen by others, he would have hugged her and comforted her.
But now he could only pat her shoulder and whisper, ”Did Director Chu really say that?”
”That's right …” Xu Yaoxing cried, ”How would I know about the death of Xu Chencan's grandfather? She never told us about it.” ”If I knew, I would definitely not wear such clothes. Boss Chu doesn't ask me about the cause and effect, treating me like this is really too much, sob sob …”
”Xu Chencan actually didn't tell you about this, but he didn't tell Director Chu clearly?” Mo Lan frowned. ”Did she do it on purpose?”
Xu Yaoxing sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she quickly put on a frightened look, and waved her hand: ”Don't say it like that, big sister is not such a person, she must be too sad and forgot to tell me. It's alright, a little grievance is nothing. ”
Tears could still be seen at the corner of her eyes. Mo Lan's heart ached as he looked at her. ”Brilliant Star, you're too kind.”
Xu Yaoxi smiled at him. ”Mo Lan, I'm really tired today. I want to go home and rest for a day. See you tomorrow.”
”I'll send you off.”
”No need, I'll just drive myself back. Go back to your work. Bye bye.”
”Alright, see you tomorrow.”
After finally getting rid of Mo Lan, Xu Yaoxing's face instantly turned gloomy.
Mo Lan's words reminded her that this matter could very well be the scheme of that bitch Xu Chencan.
Damn it! However, it was a good thing that the old man had died, lest he were to wake up in the future and cause unnecessary trouble.
She quickly went home for a meeting.
As soon as he entered, he threw his bag away and plopped down on the sofa.
”What happened?” Wei Xuerui curiously asked, ”Isn't it time for work?” Why is he back? You're willing to leave your Boss Chu? ”
”Mom, let's not talk about Chu Lingyu anymore, it makes me angry when I talk about him.”
”What happened? Tell Mom. ”
Xu Yaoxing then recounted Xu Chencan's grandfather's death and Chu Lingyu's mockery of her wearing red clothes. In the end, he said, ”All of this must have been done by Xu Chencan! If it wasn't for her not telling me about the old man's death, how could such a thing have happened? ”
”Oh? That old man is dead? ” Wei Xuerui was a little surprised. ”When did this happen?”
”Probably two days ago.” Xu Yaoxi was depressed, ”Mom, this Xu Chencan is too cunning. She even wants to use the matter of my grandfather's death to frame me. I can't beat her.”
”Is this still my proud daughter?” Wei Xueli teased her, ”So what if Xu Chencan won for a while? This war depends on who can laugh at the end. No matter how crafty she is, she's still only a little smart. How could she be as witty as my daughter?” ”Yaoxing, listen to mom. Change into a white dress now and quickly go back to the company. Then, find Chu Lingyu and let him know that you don't even know about the old man's death, do you understand?”
