Chapter 241: Chapter 241: The Last Thing a Man Wants to Hear is That He’s Not Good Enough
In the midst of the awkward atmosphere, the waiter silently finished serving the dishes and then silently left, closing the door behind him.
Mo Chen, sitting across from her, remained unfazed and said with a deep voice, “Eat.”
“You’re really not going to eat anything?”
Mo Chen poured himself another cup of tea, “The presence of that trash at tonight’s dinner party ruined my appetite.”
“…”
He attended a dinner party with Simon?
Qiao Ruoxin took the plate in front of the man, filled it up with a lot of food, and then put it back in its original place.
“Finish it, or else I’m coming over to feed you.”
The man glanced at her, “Forcing ?”
“What about it? You’ve forced
plenty of tis.” Qiao Ruoxin continued to eat, feeling quite hungry indeed.
In the end, Mo Chen did eat a little, albeit not much.
Most of the ti, he was watching Little Ghost eat.
Two hours later, they left the private room one after the other, although Mo Chen’s face was extrely sullen.
…
Jiang Mansion Number One.
After taking a shower, the man wore his dark green robe and smoked on the terrace.
Qiao Ruoxin finished her shower, dried her hair, and then ca up to the terrace, standing beside the man.
After much consideration, she still wanted to ask, “Mo Chen, you haven’t been into your secret lab in a long ti, have you?”
In the past, he’d often spend the whole day in the lab.
Mo Chen, with a cigarette between his thin lips, its smoke swirling around, looked down at her eyes, “How did you know?”
“I… went in last night.”
She thought Mo Chen would erupt in anger and closed her eyes nervously, bracing herself for a scolding.
But to Qiao Ruoxin’s surprise, what reached her ears was a man’s pleased chuckle.
She opened her eyes, puzzled, “Aren’t you mad? Don’t you always forbid anyone from entering that secret lab?”
To Mo Chen’s amazent, the lab, aside from the password lock, could not be accessed by anyone but him.
So, had Little Ghost guessed his set password?
A satisfied curve ford on his lips, it seed Qiao Ruoxin did understand him sowhat, actually guessing the password he had set.
“Tell , how did you guess the password?” There was a sexy, rogue-like quality in the man’s voice.
Qiao Ruoxin faced his composure, truly a bit flattered.
The dog of a man was in a good mood for once.
“I just suddenly rembered that one ti, I asked who you admired the most, and you said it was Einstein, so I wanted to try it out, and to my surprise, it worked.”
A hint of indulgence appeared in Mo Chen’s eyes as he pulled her into his embrace and lifted her chin, “Do you rember everything I’ve told you?”
“I rember the important things.”
He teased her like a little kitten, his voice lazy and sexy, “What else have I said?”
Qiao Ruoxin thought for a bit, “You also said you hate watching horror films!”
The man’s smile deepened, “What else?”
“I rember you saying you like quiet, you don’t like places that are too loud, such as nightclubs.”
“Continue.”
Qiao Ruoxin squinted, what was he doing? Giving her a test?
Her lively eyes spun as she said deliberately, “You also ntioned you like won with big breasts! The feel is good!”
“…”
The man’s handso face darkened a bit and then his large palm landed without restraint on her pert behind.
He scoffed with disdain, “You rembered wrong, I clearly said perky front and rear.”
Indeed, no one could outdo Mo Chen in shalessness.
“Do you feel proud of yourself? Is that sothing to boast about?”
Mo Chen’s eyebrows raised, his deanor calm, “Is there anything to be ashad of?”
“Of course! Mo Chen, you’re shallow too, liking won with curvy figures…”
She subconsciously looked down at her own figure and glanced back at her buttocks.
This action made the man chuckle softly, “You et the standards, what’s there to be angry about?”
“You won’t admit it, you just like my body! Thinking about that kind of stuff every day, be careful or you’ll age prematurely!”
The man frowned unhappily, “Little Ghost, don’t curse , or you’ll be the one suffering later.”
Qiao Ruoxin’s lips curled into a smile, “I don’t care, I can always have an affair, there are plenty of n in China, switch if one doesn’t work out.”
The next second, Mo Chen’s arm encircled her slim waist, pulling her body close to his, and he whispered in her ear, “Feel that? Do you think your brother can’t perform?”
“…”
Shaless to an extent, it probably just beca second nature, right?
Seeing her silence, the man raised his eyebrows, “Hmm? Not talking?”
“Fine, fine! You’re the best!”
“Little Ghost, be careful with such comnts in the future, n can’t stand hearing a woman say he’s inadequate.”
He spoke lightly and nonchalantly, yet Qiao Ruoxin could sohow sense a salacious undertone that made her cheeks burn.
“Got it…”
…
The next day, morning.
Qiao Ruoxin went to the hospital alone, intending to et this Lin Xi.
Especially after hearing what the butler had said, she found it odd; Lin Xi seed to have a secret.
Outside the VIP ward.
She knocked on the door, and a woman’s voice ca from inside, “Please co in.”
Seeing Qiao Ruoxin enter, Lin Xi’s face showed a good deal of surprise.
“Miss Qiao, why are you here?”
“To see how you are.”
She took a seat in front of the bed, the atmosphere in the room a bit eerie.
“I heard that you saved the Mo Family’s patriarch two years ago.”
Lin Xi suddenly felt a bit panicked internally but remained calm on the surface, “Yes, I was camping outdoors and happened to co across the car accident, so I called the police.”
“Such a coincidence? You seem to have so fate with the Mo patriarch.”
Lin Xi didn’t respond, unsure of Qiao Ruoxin’s intentions, feeling as though there were traps in the conversation.
Qiao Ruoxin continued, “I heard from the Mo Family’s butler that you stayed with him two years ago and you cried a lot, saying if he didn’t wake up, you couldn’t forgive yourself, is that true?”
“…”
Lin Xi’s face turned ashen, completely at a loss for words.
“You’re just a rescuer, why such a strong sense of guilt? Or is his car accident related to you?”
As soon as her words fell, Lin Xi angrily retorted, “Nonsense! It was purely coincidence that I found him, so I saved him. I didn’t want to just watch him die!”
This emotional reaction seed to clarify sothing for Qiao Ruoxin.
Lin Xi’s presence there might not have been an accident after all.
“Okay, I understand, you take care of yourself.”
Qiao Ruoxin gave a faint smile and then got up and left the ward.
Not until she heard the sound of the door closing did Lin Xi finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of her chest, and a cold sweat ford on her forehead.
She never imagined that the incident from two years ago would be dug up.
Lin Xi was at a complete loss, unsure of what to do next.
