Jiujiu couldn't help but smile. After a while, she said, "Okay, let's do it today. How about I pick you up after work?"
"Ladies first. I have a morning shift today. I'll pick you up." After Mo Xiao finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the director who was reporting to him. Under the director's expression that said, "Wait, there's another meeting later." He calmly took off his white coat, picked up his suit, and strode out with his long legs.
The department head's eyes twitched as he watched Mo Xiao walk away. In the end, he could only resign himself to his fate and inform the others to postpone the meeting.
When she heard Mo Xiao say "ladies first", Jiujiu was stunned. She smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
When he heard Jiujiu say "I'll wait for you", Mo Xiao's face instantly lit up with a gentle smile. Even his usual serious expression became much gentler. If he was in front of Jiujiu right now, Jiujiu would definitely notice that not only had Mo Xiao become gentler, even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes had become gentler.
When Mo Xiao arrived at Jiujiu's company, Jiujiu had just gotten off work.
Mo Xiao parked his car in front of the company and stood outside waiting for Jiujiu.
Mo Xiao didn't smoke a cigarette to relieve his boredom like the others. He stood straight in front of the car like a white poplar tree. His eyes were focused on the direction of the company's entrance.
When he saw Jiujiu appear, Mo Xiao's face instantly lit up with a smile. His eyes curved subconsciously and the corners of his mouth curled up as he walked towards Jiujiu.
Perhaps compared to Jiujiu, Mo Xiao was a little older. However, to others, Mo Xiao was in his prime. It was the best time for a man. Moreover, Mo Xiao was handsome. Even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes revealed a sense of elegance and calmness.
He walked towards Jiujiu at a moderate pace. When he was in front of Jiujiu, he naturally reached out and took the backpack from Jiujiu's hands. He then said, "Let's go."
Mo Xiao's actions when he took Jiujiu's backpack were natural and smooth. When he said "let's go", it was as if he had said it a million times to Jiujiu.
When the colleagues who followed Jiujiu saw Mo Xiao, they instinctively asked, "Nansu, this is your husband?"
"I'm Nansu's boyfriend, Mo Xiao. Nice to meet you."
Before Jiujiu could speak, Mo Xiao naturally introduced himself and declared his ownership. After Mo Xiao introduced himself, he directly reached out to shake Jiujiu's colleague's hand. When he released his hand, Mo Xiao smiled gently at Jiujiu. Then, he said to Jiujiu's colleague, "My Nansu is new here. I hope you can take care of her."
Although Jiujiu's colleague was already married, he still blushed when he saw Mo Xiao's gentlemanly attitude. He quickly nodded and said that it was what he should do.
Originally, Jiujiu really thought that Mo Xiao just wanted to have a meal with her. However, when she saw Mo Xiao's current attitude, she knew that Mo Xiao was clearly here to declare his ownership. Especially when he told her colleague that he was her boyfriend. It was as childish as a puppy peeing around a telephone pole.
After Jiujiu's colleague left, Mo Xiao immediately turned to look at Jiujiu and apologized in a low voice.
In response to Mo Xiao's apology, Jiujiu nodded and got into the car.
Mo Xiao brought Jiujiu to a Chinese restaurant. Although the restaurant was located in a remote area, its business was still very good because of the local cuisine.
Jiujiu sat down with Mo Xiao. Mo Xiao was very gentlemanly as he helped Jiujiu rinse the cutlery with hot water. Then, he poured a cup of tea for Jiujiu.
Jiujiu had been busy the whole afternoon and was really hungry. When she saw Mo Xiao pour her a cup of tea, she immediately took a sip.
However, to Jiujiu's surprise, the tea provided by the restaurant tasted pretty good. It was sweet and had a rich aftertaste.
Jiujiu drank two cups of tea in a row. Just as she was about to drink the third cup, Mo Xiao suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Jiujiu raised her head and looked at Mo Xiao in confusion.
Mo Xiao looked at Jiujiu with his eyes still shining. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly. He looked at Jiujiu and said teasingly, "If you drink too much, your stomach will swell."
Jiujiu looked at Mo Xiao. Thinking that it was almost time to eat, she put down the teacup in her hand resentfully.
Soon, the food was served.
Jiujiu was really hungry. She picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
Jiujiu ate very well. Although she ate very quickly, her movements were not rough at all. Her cheeks moved quickly as she chewed. She looked like a little rabbit that was in a hurry to eat carrots. It was very cute.
Jiujiu ate seriously while Mo Xiao ate casually and stared at Jiujiu. Especially when he saw Jiujiu's cheeks moving as she chewed, his eyes subconsciously curved.
Jiujiu ate very quickly at first. However, when she was a little full, she slowed down her chewing.
Jiujiu chatted with Mo Xiao as she ate. Jiujiu had studied medicine before and had a lot of knowledge about it. On the other hand, Mo Xiao had a deep understanding of Jiujiu's work because his family owned a business. The two of them chatted happily for a while.
In contrast to Jiujiu and Mo Xiao who were chatting happily, Lu Heng was about to explode. He was not as angry as he was now even when he was threatened when he wanted to appeal.
After all, even though the other party had threatened him, he had still given him some money to keep his mouth shut. However, when he saw Jiujiu chatting happily with a well-dressed man, Lu Heng could not help but wonder why Jiujiu was able to chat happily with this man.
Lu Heng felt that even if Jiujiu asked for a divorce, deep down, Jiujiu still liked him. If she did not like him, why would she be so angry when she saw him cheating on her?
Therefore, Jiujiu was so fierce that day. It was nothing more than pretending to be fierce to hide the sadness and sadness in her heart.
Therefore, Lu felt that even if Jiujiu divorced him, even if Jiujiu received compensation, she would definitely be crying and feeling all kinds of sadness.
Because he comforted himself in this way, Lu Heng was able to stand up quickly after losing his job and getting a divorce.
However, reality proved that he was wrong.
Not only did Jiujiu not cry because of the divorce, but she also chatted happily with a man. This made Lu Heng, who originally thought that Jiujiu would lead a miserable life, unhappy.
Lu Heng's mentality at this moment was that if he did not lead a good life, then she must lead a bad life too. If he was already leading a bad life, what right did she have to lead a good life?
Even if Lu Heng was the one who cheated first, even if he had already divorced Jiujiu, and even if An Yi was sitting opposite him, Lu Heng inexplicably felt that the scene of Jiujiu chatting happily with Mo Xiao was extremely unpleasant.
