"Xin Xin, why didn't you tell me this last night?" Mo Lixin asked. Had she known, she would have definitely helped her. Even if Ji Nanfeng didn't help her, she could go find Grandfather who would help her for sure.
"Yesterday, yesterday… I was heartbroken, right? I can't remember anything from after I drank." Xu Qingman said, a bit embarrassed.
"Xu Qingman, you're not acting like the way I know you. You're acting delicate, but aren't you a tomboy? Last night…" As Gan Yunting said this, he suddenly shut his mouth. Clearly, there were some things he couldn't say.
Because of his words, Xu Qingman suddenly widened her eyes. Thankfully, Gan Yunting didn't continue, so she felt more comforted.
"Whether I am a tomboy or a delicate lady depends on who I'm talking to." Xu Qingman retorted.
"Whoa! How dare you talk to me like this?" Gan Yunting drove as he bantered with Xu Qingman, lightening the mood and making it less awkward.
They quickly arrived at the vegetarian restaurant they agreed upon. It was a restaurant adorned with interesting and unique ancient objects that got people in the appetite to eat.
The group of 5 asked for a private room and ordered some signature dishes.
Not long after Mo Lixin sat down, she went to use the bathroom.
"Mr. Zhao, this is the women's restroom. How can you come in?" A coquettish female's voice rang and unfortunately, Mo Lixin recognized the voice. It was her college classmate, Cai Lang.
"You little vixen. Weren't you enthusiastically teasing me under the table? Now, you are pretending to be like a delicate little lady! But… I like the way you're acting!" This was a more mature voice. Mo Lixin was in the bathroom stall and she couldn't see anyone, but she could tell that the man was in his 50s.
"You're so annoying. When did I…" Cai Lang said in a coy voice.
Bang!
Mo Lixin accidentally bumped into something in the bathroom. How awkward… She went to open the door, feeling embarrassed…
"You… you guys… can enjoy yourselves!" Mo Lixin didn't even think of washing her hands, she only wanted to leave!
"Mo Lixin! It's you. I haven't seen you in a year and it doesn't seem like you've changed." You're still as beautiful as you were. Cai Lang said, except the last half of the sentence.
"Ah…Cai Lang, it's you! This… this must be your boyfriend… Sorry for disturbing…Sorry!"
Since Cai Lang already recognized her, she couldn't act like she didn't know her.
Cai Lang was originally the school beauty. Even if she didn't have good grades in school in the past, she enjoyed herself. There were many people pursuing her, but she was jealous of Mo Lixin, who was always a goody-two-shoes, pretty and cute and many guys in school liked her too.
This was normal. Beautiful women were always liked. But last year, when they were about to graduate, she heard a conversation between two guys. This made her hate Mo Lixin from then on.
The content of the conversation was very simple. They said that although she was sexy and charming, she was a cheap woman that would sleep with anyone with money. The guys who liked her were due to her appearance. However, the guys who liked Mo Lixin were different. They said that she was an enthusiastic and kind woman. The people who liked her all genuinely liked her.
"This is…" The chubby man suddenly interjected and stared at Mo Lixin pervertedly. Meanwhile, he had a hand on Cai Lang's waist, squeezing her skin.
Cai Lang felt as if she had lost face for the first time. Indeed, what the two guys in college had said about her was correct. She had slept with countless people. Otherwise, she wouldn't have become a team leader at one of Ji Company's branch office.
Normally, she had never met someone she knew when she did this. She never expected to meet someone she didn't want to meet the most today. She had nothing to lose now.
Was Mo Lixin pure and clean? Today she was going to tear this layer of innocence off of her. In her heart, there was not a single woman who came out to work that hadn't been coerced into sexual favors. It's just that some people were better at acting dumb.
"Mr. Zhao, this is my college classmate, Mo Lixin. We have a great relationship! She was our school beauty back then! Countless guys liked her!" Cai Lang said.
Mo Lixin didn't understand why Cai Lang would say this.
"Oh… Has a great relationship with you… Then wouldn't…." He seemed to have thought of something. Zhao De glanced at Mo Lixin as if undressing her in his eyes.
Mo Lixin was frightened and was about to leave.
But how could Zhao De let her go so easily? Cai Lang was basically telling him that the beautiful woman in front of him was the same as her. She was another woman who made her way up the social ladder by selling herself. Well, this suited him.
"Xin Xin, right? I am a General Manager at a branch office of Ji Company. I have a private room. How about I treat you for food? After all, you're also Lang'er's college classmate! We are brought together by fate. How about… we get to know one another?"
Zhao De emphasized hard on the words "get to know".
Even Mo Lixin who was naive and inexperienced could hear the hidden meaning behind it. While she was disgusted by what Cai Lang was doing, she was also thinking about a way out of here. Yet, Zhao De blocked the door. There were barely any people coming to use the bathroom and because she didn't bring her phone either, the situation got a bit challenging.
