Chapter 40 (1/2)

Plum Garden

The cold color home furnishings, even the curtains, are cold. In front of the windowsill, Xiao Mo sits quietly at the table, looks down and reads a stack of materials under his eyes. His eyebrows and eyes are slightly wrinkled, his handsome side face lines are cold, and his tight lips show a man's temperament of not being close to strangers.

At this time, a knock on the door interrupted the quiet atmosphere.

”Mo Shao, Miss Xia Tong wants to see you. Now wait in the living room.” Xiao Er stood at the door, looking straight and reporting respectfully.

Xiao Mo raised his head. His cold face softened when he heard the woman's name and narrowed his eyes slightly, ”I'll go now.” Closing the information in his hand, he stood up, left the office with his slender thighs, took two turns, and soon saw the shadow sitting on the chair.

She sat quietly with her eyes down. Her thin body was very straight. A pair of small hands were placed on her legs. It looked like a charming porcelain doll from a distance.

After hearing the sound of leather boots stepping on the floor, she looked up slightly. What came into her eyes was the man's handsome and domineering face. Her eyebrows bent and her brilliant smile immediately lit up the room, ”you're coming.”

Xiao Mo's heart moved, and some hot feelings spread unconsciously from the bottom of his heart.

He nodded, fixed his eyes on Xia Tong's figure, and directly came over, ”Xiao Er, go make tea.”

After Xiao Er nodded and left, Xia Tong sipped his pink lips and said with a faint smile, ”I'm surprised. I'll come to you?”

”No surprise.”

Hearing that he was so determined, she was surprised, ”why?”

”I heard about you.”

Although Xiao Mo seldom goes out, as long as he wants to know about Shengjing, he can naturally understand it. To tell the truth, he really looks at the woman in front of him. If ordinary people experience this, they will be unwilling.

After all, the gap feeling of falling from a high altitude is not something that ordinary women can calm down.

Now he looked at Xia Tong as if nothing had happened. He thought she didn't care about her identity.

But

Another thing made him uncomfortable.

It is said that things between Nangong Chen and her will always make him frown unconsciously.

Xia Tong didn't know what he was thinking. After hearing his words, he was stunned. Then he smiled disapprovingly, ”do you think I would come to you for help?”

Xiao Mo shook his head directly, ”you won't.”

Xia Tong blinked and wondered, ”then why did you say...”

The man thought for a moment, stared at her with deep black eyes, and said, ”because you are my woman.”

Xia Tong was stunned, then covered with black lines, ”you know it's not true.”

He joked in a serious tone. It sounded strange and made her not used to it.

But who knows, Xiao Mo picked up the tip of her eyebrows, raised her thin lips slightly, and joked, ”who says it's not true?”

”You...”

Xia Tong's eyes are complex. Some of them can't understand what men are thinking. Before, it was clearly agreed to act, so what he meant

Besides, she is not the second young lady of the Rong family now, but an ordinary woman, so what reason does he have to do so?

wait!

She didn't come for this. Well, how could she be biased by this man in a few words?

With a light cough, Xia Tong deliberately didn't see the man's deep black eyes and smiled, ”you know I don't need you to be responsible. I want to ask you about something today.”

Knowing that she was deliberately avoiding the topic, Xiao Mo didn't force it. The corners of her lips were slightly raised, and a soft light flashed in her eyes, ”you say.”

Xia Tong hesitated for a few seconds, then raised his eyes and looked directly at the man's cold black eyes. After half a ring, he gently asked, ”I want to inquire about old Li.”

Xiao Mo's smile on her lips was suddenly cold. Her original soft face became sharp because of her words. His black eyes narrowed. He asked with his eyebrows, ”why do you ask?”

Xia Tong didn't avoid his sharp eyes like a sword and looked at him without fear, ”because I want to find out the accident, because I want to catch the behind the accident!”

She knew that Xiao Mo was a very sensitive and wise man. She didn't want to lie to him, so she decided to tell the truth. Of course, she wouldn't mention such incredible things as rebirth.

Xiao Mo was no longer relaxed and playful, and looked at the woman with a straight face in front of her with a rather rigorous frown.

What did she say?

Find out who's behind it?

Not to mention what earth shaking events she could do as a weak woman, even he didn't find out the real behind the car accident.

Where did she get her confidence?

”Why check?”

Hearing the man's low voice, Xia Tong didn't avoid it. He smiled gently, ”it's for one person.”

She naturally could see the meaning of Xiao Mo's eyes, but she didn't care. No matter who looked down on her, she would find out. Even in the face of great difficulties, she still wouldn't give up.

”For whom?”

Xiao Mo pressed step by step, and his tone gradually became sharp. His black eyes stared at her eyes and wanted to see something from her crystal eyes.

The oppressive force of the man's tall body rolled over. Xia Tong's heart jumped. Some couldn't bear the momentum of Nie Ren, but she wouldn't let herself be timid. She took a deep breath, looked up at the man's eyes and gently spit out two words, ”Li Xiao.”

When she said these two words, the man's eyes shrank suddenly!
