Chapter 40 - Arriving in a domineering manner, unable to escape

"What's wrong?" Sensing Jian Mo's hesitation, Su Junli tilted her head and asked with concern.

Jian Mo withdrew her gaze, bit the corners of her lips and shook her head, before following Su Junli into the main residence …

She didn't expect to see Chu Zixiao here, but it didn't seem to be an unexpected matter. After all, he was the son of the Chu's Group, the only successor … It is normal to attend the activities of the upper classes.

As Su Junli's girlfriend, he had to be "booed" by everyone … Jian Mo appeared to be extremely generous, although Su Junbei was a gentle person, but he still carried a faint sense of alienation, and naturally no one questioned his relationship with her deeply.

"What do you want to drink?" After getting rid of everyone, Su Junli asked gently.

Jian Mo came back to reality and replied with a smile, "Orange juice!"

"Mn," Su Junli agreed, "You first go to the resting area to rest, I will go take it … And bring you something to eat, eh? "

Jian Mo nodded and turned to the resting area, only then did she go to the dining area to get her food.

He hadn't even sat down for two minutes before a figure blocked the light … Jian Mo raised his eyes, meeting Chu Zixiao's complicated gaze.

"If Chu Bian is here to mock me or ridicule me, I feel that this occasion today is not suitable …" Jian Mo said indifferently, "If you feel that yesterday's slap isn't enough, you can look back at any time." Having said so, she decided to ignore him and withdrew her gaze.

Chu Zixiao squinted, "Mo Mo..."

"Chu Bian, my partner is coming over." Jian Mo interrupted him and secretly inhaled, then looked at Chu Zixiao with the corner of his mouth: "I personally don't think that it's good for you to be alone with me like this!"

"Gu Beichen can't satisfy you?" Chu Zixiao's handsome face showed complex emotions, as though she was holding back her anger.

Towards Chu Zixiao, who had always maintained her composure and calmness, angered him with a casual sentence, Jian Mo felt her heart clench … Perhaps it was a response to that sentence, the lovers' breakup destined to meet the enemy's indifference.

"Whatever you want …" Jian Mo was a little tired, "I'm sorry, I want to be alone and be quiet."

"Mo Mo —" Chu Zixiao clenched his hands slightly.

"Chu Shao, as a gentleman... The topic should not be continued if the woman does not want to. " It was unknown when Su Junli had returned, but at the same time, he placed the orange juice and food in front of Jian Mo and said, "I don't know what you like to eat, but I randomly picked up some."

Jian Mo scanned through the food before saying with a smile: "They are all things that I like …" It wasn't a facade, it was true! She felt that it was strange how accurately Su Junli liked her.

"It's good that you like it." Su Junli said with a light smile before he stood up and met eyes with Chu Zixiao … One was cold, the other soft. However, neither could say that their auras were weaker.

"For Chu Shao to be able to come today, the Su residence brings light to our humble dwelling."

"Third young master is too polite …"

"Chu Shao did not bring a female companion today?"

Chu Zixiao's gaze trembled slightly as he slowly said, "I've lent my female companion to another man. I can only go there myself."

"Is that so?" Su Junli chuckled, "It's best for a female companion to stay by your side. If she can't stay by your side, that means she isn't your own … Chu Shao, do you think so? "

"Not necessarily." Chu Zixiao also laughed, and raised her eyebrows, "Some people are lost, I always need a lamp to guide them back."

"I'm just afraid that my line of sight will always be right in front of me … Even if there's a light behind us, I won't be able to see it! "

Chu Zixiao smiled, but it was very light and calm. you won't forget where you came from. "

It only took a moment for the two men to become filled with hostility and freeze the surrounding air, making it difficult for people to breathe.

Jian Mo ate without a care in the world, as if the conversation between the two men had nothing to do with her at all … However, the thing that entered her mouth was clearly something she loved to eat, yet it became hard to swallow.

"Sorry, I need to go to the bathroom." Jian Mo said to Su Junli and then stood up to leave. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, these two would crush her heart.

"Does Third Young Master understand her?" Chu Zixiao suddenly asked.

Su Junli smiled lightly, "I know more than you think …"

"As far as I know, Third Young Master met Mo Mo during the music hall's design project?" It was a question, but it was also a certainty.

The corner of Su Junli's mouth held a smile, and he did not nod or shake his head … The absence of memory seemed to make sense. But why had he just met her?

"I know what the Chu Shao is trying to say," Su Junli said as the corner of his mouth slightly curled, "However, if the existence of one person causes another to be injured, I feel that it is necessary to choose to avoid it … Chu Shao, was what you said right? "

Chu Zixiao didn't say anything, but the corner of her mouth raised into a smile. That smile revealed a hint of emotion that would cause one to ponder deeply … Initially, she thought that she would only need to ask them why she broke up when she returned. It turned out that the problems that he had to face wave after wave …

Whether it was the Little Uncle or Su Junli, the current Jian Mo … This was not simple!

Jian Mo looked at herself in the mirror with a face full of worry.

Chu Zixiao would continuously mock and ridicule her … She was sad, but she could only accept it.

If she had to say a single word to Chu Zixiao, she only had four … Deep love!

From that stormy night onwards, they had been travelling in opposite directions …

After doing some psychological construction, Jian Mo left the washroom and entered the venue. At this moment, there were more and more people, drinking wine and stroking their clothes.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from outside the door … That restlessness was as if it was contagious and everyone looked over.

At the door, Gu Beichen walked in with a single hand on his pockets. He was dressed in a tailored black suit that wrapped around his tall body. He didn't even glance at it. The arrogance that seeped out of his bones was like that of an ancient king.

His domineering appearance had determined that the stars would revolve around him, and he had become the focus of everyone's attention.

"I didn't expect that ChenShao would come …"

"Su Family sure has a lot of face!"

The heart wall that Jian Mo had built earlier instantly collapsed when Gu Beichen came in. She even forgot to breathe, not knowing how to react. There was only one thought on her mind. Wasn't he still overseas?

I didn't hear he was coming back yesterday... Why would he appear here?

She was standing beside Chu Zixiao, why did she put herself in such an awkward situation that she couldn't turn around …

Gu Beichen's eagle eyes slightly moved, and his gaze finally landed on Jian Mo's place. The light in his eyes deepened, and he nodded to the person who greeted him at the side. At the same time, he walked towards Jian Mo with steady, forceful steps.

Jian Mo's heart began to tremble, her breathing became so hurried that she seemed like she was about to die … She wanted to run, but her feet felt like lead and she couldn't lift them.

Su Junli realized that something was amiss with Jian Mo, and seeing that her face was slightly pale white, she frowned slightly … Following her gaze, he looked at Gu Beichen and doubts arose in his heart.

"Are you not feeling well?" Su Junli asked softly, "Should we go to the guest room to rest first?"

"Hmm?" Jian Mo's mind was in a mess. She didn't know what Su Junli had said, and had only subconsciously let out a light gasp before she reflexively tilted her head at the same time. Who knew that her lips just happened to slide past Su Junli's face, which was slightly bent over, as she wanted to ask him another question.

The world seemed to instantly go silent …

Because as Gu Beichen walked towards this direction, everyone's gaze fell upon this area … Undoubtedly, Jian Mo's "ambiguous" action shocked everyone.

Chu Zixiao lowered her gaze and frowned.

Gu Beichen slightly narrowed his eyes. When his footsteps landed on one side of the three, his black pupils were as calm as the calm sea surface without any wind as he looked at Jian Mo …

It was just that there was a huge wave in the dark as if it was going to swallow everything around it at any moment!
