Mo Zhu raised her hand and took the laptop from the man. She simply placed it on her crossed legs and her hands began to work non-stop on the keyboard. Before long, the CCTV footage of the three past days of the office of the leaders of Jingyang High School appeared on the computer screen.

The girl’s hands did not stop moving, and her eyes did not idle. She quickly browsed through all the video recordings. With familiarity, Mo Zhu brought out the few video recordings that she had suspected, then put on her earphones and started listening to the movements and conversations of the leaders on the screen.

Not long later, Mo Zhu really found a few pieces of useful information. Not only was there a video call from the school leader to inform Meng Ran about the scholarship she had received, but there was also a video recording of the conversation between the person who bribed the leader to secretly replace the nominees.

After quickly editing these few paragraphs together, Mo Zhu took out her phone, connected it to the computer and pressed the save button.

Just as Mo Zhu finished maneuvering her computer, the car had already stopped steadily at the entrance of the restaurant Xu Huan had reserved. Huo Xuan reminded Mo Zhu softly that they had arrived and then got out of the car. He walked to the other side and opened the door for Mo Zhu.

Xu Huan had already walked up to the waiter who was standing at the entrance and had talked to him about the room number and the details of serving the dishes. Now that he was done talking to the waiter and had returned to his senses, he was instantly faced with a display of public affection.

He shook his head and waved at the two of them as he shouted, “Stop showing off your affection for each other. Hurry up and come in and take a seat. The food will be cold if you continue dragging.”

At that moment, Mo Zhu was one step out of the car door. When she heard Xu Huan’s helpless voice, she looked over at the entrance and raised her eyebrows with a faint smile.

As for Huo Xuan, he only cared about staring at Mo Zhu and smiling.

This made Xu Huan even angrier!

These two people were each more detestable than the other. He didn’t expect that after being brothers with Huo Xuan for so many years, this man would only care about his wife and not care about his good brother’s face at all!

Xu Huan ignored the sweet duo and turned around to walk towards the private room that he had reserved. If he took the two of them seriously again, he would be asking for trouble!

Once the three of them had taken their seats, one waiter had already asked the waiters to start serving the first round of dishes promptly. As they did not know what Mo Zhu liked or disliked, Xu Huan had almost ordered all the dishes there.

“Little Bamboo, try the dishes of this restaurant. I’ve eaten in Cloud City for so long, and I like the food made by this restaurant the most. The taste of the food here is something other restaurants can’t achieve.” Once the food was served, Xu Huan could not wait to pick up his chopsticks to take some food for Mo Zhu.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a cold wave surge over. Then, a pair of chopsticks that came out of nowhere quickly intercepted the food that he was about to serve Mo Zhu. Xu Huan looked up and met Huo Xuan’s eyes that were filled with unpredictability.

The man said coldly, “I don’t have to trouble Young Master Xu to put food into Xiao Zhu’s bowl. You should eat your own food.”

Xu Huan’s heart sank when he heard this. He immediately lowered his head and began to eat quietly, as if he was frightened.

Oh no, oh no. It looked like Huo Xuan was angry. He had even shouted out the word ‘Young Master Xu’. What should he do?! The last time Huo Xuan had called him that was five years ago when he had accidentally broken the robot that he had bought at a high price from a western merchant.

After the incident, he had to pay an entire series of small robots to Huo Xuan in order to get this man’s forgiveness. Now, he had been angered by the small matter of putting food into Mo Zhu’s bowl. How was he supposed to apologize now? Xu Huan didn’t dare to say much although it looked like he was really tasting and enjoying the delicious food.

From the moment Mo Zhu sat down, she had been constantly replying to messages with her phone. Now that she finally had the time to look up and see what was so outstanding about this meal that could earn Xu Huan’s praise, she did not expect to see this slightly awkward scene between the two of them.

After coughing lightly, Mo Zhu raised her hand and nudged Huo Xuan with her elbow. “It’s just a small matter. Xu Huan also has good intentions. Don’t scare him.”

Xu Huan’s eyes lit up when he heard Mo Zhu’s words. As long as Little Bamboo spoke, Huo Xuan would definitely give her face. This matter would probably be resolved easily.

As expected, after Mo Zhu finished speaking, Huo Xuan said with a resentful expression, “You’re my fiancée, you can only eat the food I give you. You have to learn to reject the food other men offer.”

Mo Zhu turned her gaze to Huo Xuan. She tilted her head and said with a smile. “Fine, fine, fine. If you say no, I’ll reject him. I’ll listen to you on this matter.”

Seeing the smile that had instantly formed on the man’s face, Mo Zhu actually enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.

Ever since she met Huo Xuan and came to the Huo family, many things had changed. Huo Xuan and Chen Man had always taken good care of her, and Xu Huan had also sincerely treated her as a close friend.

In the face of so many sincere and pure relationships, Mo Zhu even felt a little at a loss. However, since such things have come to her, she would definitely not let down those who had treated her sincerely..
