Qin Qingqing’s beautiful eyes flashed lightly, "Sister Momo, how about having breakfast at my place?"
"Sure, I’ll call my mom and let her know."
Momo cheerfully took out her phone and dialed her mom’s number.
This morning, aside from her own curiosity, she was instructed by her mother, Wen Ran, to be here.
The reason, of course, was Mo Ziye’s injury on his lips.
No one believes that his lip injury was caused by his so-called girlfriend biting him, nor could it be by so random woman.
After hearing Momo’s report, Wen Ran asked her to stay at the Qin family and have breakfast with Qingqing.
The maid served breakfast on the table, and Qin Qingqing and Momo walked into the dining room.
They pulled out chairs to sit down. Before starting to eat, Qin Qingqing hesitated and asked, "Sister Momo, is Sister Xin Xin not at ho?"
That night, she went to the Mo family for only a few minutes and didn’t see Xin Xin.
Upon hearing this, a subtle expression flickered across Momo’s face, "She left G City four years ago and returned to her biological parents’ ho. She hasn’t been in contact with anyone here, just like you."
Qin Qingqing showed a hint of surprise.
She actually left G City?
Momo pursed her lips, her eyes serious as she looked at Qin Qingqing, earnestly saying, "Qingqing, actually, you misunderstood Ziyi back then. Even when you went abroad all these years, he never had a girlfriend."
Qin Qingqing’s pale face turned an unusual shade of white.
In front of her eyes appeared the scene she saw four years ago...
"Sister Momo, all of that is in the past."
"So you don’t bla Brother Ziyi anymore?"
Although Momo couldn’t stand Ziye’s unreasonable bossiness, she and Ziye are twin siblings and have a good relationship.
As for Xin Xin, none of them knew when she found out about her own background...
Qin Qingqing shook her head, "No, I don’t bla Brother Ziyi anymore."
She had long stopped blaming him.
All these years, she blad herself and couldn’t forgive herself.
If it weren’t for her back then, her mother wouldn’t have had an accident.
"Qingqing, can you tell what Xin Xin said to you back then?"
Qin Qingqing gave a bitter smile, "Sister Momo, no matter what she said back then, it’s no longer important."
"Then what happened between you and Ziye last night?"
Seeing Qin Qingqing’s expression change slightly, Momo quickly added, "It’s not that I’m gossiping, it’s just that my mom cares about you. She always treats you like her own. Last night, Ziye ca ho with his lip injury..."
"What lip injury?"
Qin Qingqing feigned ignorance.
She couldn’t say that it was she who bit him.
"Hehe, if you don’t know, I won’t say. When you go to the company, you can see, I guess he’ll be the gossip of the whole company today."
Momo’s words quickly beca reality.
When Qin Qingqing went to the company to attend the shareholders’ eting, in the restroom, she heard two female employees outside whispering.
A said, "Did you see? The President’s lips were injured. It seems once the abstinent god lets loose, he becos fierce as a tiger!"
B giggled, "You talk as if you saw the whole process with the President and a woman, but Shi Xi ca to the company early this morning, maybe they were too intense last night, and that’s why..."
"Maybe soon we’ll get to eat wedding candies. Besides Qin Qingqing, who was a long-ti childhood friend of the President, Shi Xi is the only girlfriend, right? With them being so intense, might they marry because of the child..."
A fantasized, while B remarked, "Shi Xi is so lucky, to still be with the President after Qin Qingqing returned. I thought we’d see a drama of two won fighting over one man."
anwhile, Shi Xi, one of the subjects of their discussion, felt a mix of emotions.
Behind a wide office desk, she watched Mo Ziye intensely working, the injury on his lip catching her eye, while her hands at her sides slowly clenched into fists.
With great effort, she didn’t let her jealousy ask aloud.
"Ziye, let’s have lunch together. If you have ti in the afternoon, accompany to the photo studio, okay?"
Shi Xi suppressed all jealousy and sadness, her brows and eyes showing a gentle, charming smile.
She acted as if she hadn’t noticed his lip injury or realized that the position and type of injury were definitely from being bitten by a woman.
Mo Ziye’s typing fingers didn’t stop, "Lunch together is fine, but the afternoon is fully booked..."
"No problem, let’s just have lunch. I heard this morning that there’s a shareholders’ eting today, so Miss Qin must be coming too. We’ve always talked about inviting her to lunch, but haven’t had the chance, so at noon we..."
"You talk to her then. If she’s willing, invite her. One al won’t bankrupt ."
Mo Ziye interrupted Shi Xi, looked up to give her a glance, then pressed save and closed the docunt.
His aloof and cool words showed no connection whatsoever to his lip injury and Qin Qingqing.
Shi Xi’s heart paused montarily.
Could she have been mistaken?
His lips weren’t bitten by Qin Qingqing, or weren’t bitten by a woman at all?
The smile on her face grew even brighter, and she said lightly, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely convince Miss Qin. Since you treat her like a little sister, she’s like my sister too. I’ll cover this al, and don’t try to fight over it."
After a slight pause, Shi Xi continued, "I won’t disturb President Mo from work now, I’ll go see if Miss Qin is here, so I can make an appointnt before soone else does."
She intentionally said the latter half of the sentence ambiguously.
Behind the office desk, Mo Ziye’s motion of turning pages slightly paused.
He couldn’t help but recall last night when she left in Yang Xiaofeng’s car and didn’t answer his call... his handso brows shadowed with coolness.
——
Qin Qingqing bumped into Shi Xi in the hallway.
The other’s gaze swept over her latest limited edition bag, a flash of jealousy in her eyes, which then turned into a charming smile.
"Good morning, Miss Qin."
"Good morning, Miss Shi."
Qin Qingqing looked at Shi Xi in front of her with a forced smile, listening to her say, "I heard from Ziye that you’re coming for the eting today, was even planning on waiting for you downstairs."
"Does Miss Shi have sothing to discuss with ?"
"To invite you to lunch. Ziye and I always wanted to invite you for a al, but never had ti. This morning, he finally agreed with , saying Miss Qin grew up by his side just like a sister, making eager to et you, and later et Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo."
Shi Xi’s eyebrows and eyes carried a sweet, shy smile, "Miss Qin, you won’t laugh at for wanting to et Ziye’s family so eagerly, will you?"
She lowered her head, her hand ’unintentionally’ brushing over her abdon, speaking in a soft voice, "If it weren’t for the possibility of marrying because of the child, I wouldn’t be this anxious."
