When Xiang Yi Mo slightly lowered her head as she scooped porridge into her mouth, Lu Wang Chen saw the small hair whorl on top of her head and found it extremely adorable.
“I heard Qin Chu has said that you’re currently doing your internship at Shangcheng. Are you going to Shangcheng today?” He suddenly realised that he would be going to the company later. What about Xiang Yi Mo?
Xiang Yi Mo learned from the system that Ji Heng Yu would visit Shangcheng today to discuss with Qin Chu.
Xiang Yi Mo deliberated for a while and told Lu Wang Chen that—
She was going to Shangcheng today.
Thus, Xiang Yi Mo was sent to Shangcheng after having breakfast by Lu Wang Chen in the name of convenience and efficiency before she could even refuse.
Xiang Yi Mo came down from the black Rolls Royce. Before entering the company, she realised that the vehicle Lu Wang Chen sent her today was different from last night.
She sighed with emotion. He really likes black tones.
She thought about Lu Wang Cheng’s temperament and style. Indeed, this simple and cold tone is quite in line with his image.
Qin Chu, who was passing by the lobby, happened to see Lu Wang Chen sending Xiang Yi Mo to Shangcheng.
Although Lu Wang Chen did not get out of his car and did not show his face, Qin Chu recognised several cars in Lu Wang Chen’s garage.
Why is Mo Mo getting down from Wang Chen’s car?
Could it be that… Mo Mo was at Wang Chen’s place last night?
Qin Chu frowned. An uncomfortable feeling flashed past his heart. It was that kind of feeling where a valuable thing was about to leave him.
Thus, he sent a message to Lu Wang Chen to ask him.
【 Qin Chu: I just saw you sending Mo Mo to Shangcheng. Mo Mo… stayed overnight at your place last night?】
【 Lu Wang Chen: She was so drunk that she fell unconscious, and I couldn’t ask where she lived. She also vomited all over me in the car, so I had no choice but to take the little girl back to my place. 】
【 Qin Chu: Did Mo Mo cause such a disturbance? I have really troubled you. I will pay you back on behalf of her for the money for the clothes and car wash.】
【 Lu Wang Chen: No need. That’s too polite. Not to mention that we have known each other for so many years. I am also acquainted with the little girl.】
【 Qin Chu: Thanks a lot then.】
Qin Chu was inexplicably at ease after hearing this explanation.
Meanwhile, Xiang Yi Mo, the person whom the two were talking about, inevitably crossed paths with Qi Yan, Qi Yan’s best friends, colleagues and other people who were not fond of her. This occurred even though Shangcheng’s lobby was spacious and the journey to the lift was very long.
Initially, Xiang Yi Mo wanted to walk away from the female protagonist after seeing her.
Who knew that Qi Yan’s best friend, Fang Ke Xin, persistently pestered her and sarcastically said, “Oh, I was wondering who this person is. So I was right. I did not expect it to be really Miss Xiang. I never thought Miss Xiang would still know how to come to work.”
“Oh my, look at me. I have said the wrong thing. Our Miss Xiang is sick and had a car accident. Then again, it is understandable since Miss Xiang recovered from her illness so quickly. But what kind of vehicle were you hit by? You can return to Shangcheng alive and kicking after a few days? You were probably hit by a child’s bicycle, right?”
After these words left their mouths, the sound of laughter and malice swam into Xiang Yi Mo’s ears.
Immediately after, Qi Yan spoke gently, “Ke Xin, don’t say that. Younger Sister Yi Mo must have her reasons.”
“Heh, what reasons can there be? Yan’er, you are just too kind. Isn’t Miss Xiang doing these things just to trick President Qin? Trying to drive a wedge between you and Presiden Qin.”
“Last time, she also used her status to pick on you. Thankfully, our President Qin is totally not tricked by her, and he only has eyes for you.”
“I really don’t know how thick someone’s face is for her to still dare to come to Shangcheng. If I were to say, a certain someone should go back to becoming a young lady and not shamelessly cling to President Qin.”
Fang Ke Xin’s mocking voice wasn’t small.
So it was heard by Ji Heng Yu, who was not far from them and was about to take the elevator to find Qin Chu.
Ji Heng Yu frowned slightly. In fact, he immediately saw her as early as when Xiang Yi Mo appeared in Shangcheng.
Ever since his parents were in an accident, Ji Heng Yu shouldered the responsibility of Ji Company and was swamped with work. However, among the three, he could be considered to have spent the most time with Xiang Yi Mo compared to Jing Qian, who went abroad, and Lu Wang Chen, who was a soldier.
But even so, he and Xiang Yi Mo only greeted each other, quickly glanced at one another and acted like strangers regardless of the occasion they met.
So, when Xiang Yi Mo secretly checked Ji Heng Yu’s Love Value for herself, she was not surprised to see a zero.
However, because of her previous experience with Jing Qian and Lu Wang Chen…
