Chapter 2157: Meeting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Nan Xun looked at Tang Mo through the makeup mirror.
‘There was a trace of mockery in his eyes.
He really could not change his habit of eating s.h.i.+t.
She had just walked out of the trauma of the accident and could not wait to go out to support a woman.
Alright, it was fine if he went out to raise her, but he even hugged her and was intimate with her. Wasn’t that disgusting?
Tang Mo noticed Nan Xun’s cold gaze and raised his eyebrows. “Why does your expression change so quickly? Alright, let’s not talk about Bo Cixue and her.”
Nan Xun retracted her gaze and stood up expressionlessly with her phone.
She did not want to talk to him and did not look at him again. She planned to go to the guest room to rest.
Tang Mo grabbed her. “Nan Xun, what’s wrong with you again?”
Nan Xun shook off his hand and looked up at him with a cold and mocking smile. “Tang Mo, since you broke the peace and harmony between us, don’t blame me for not keeping our agreement.”
‘Tang Mo narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?”
“Do you know Lou Xin?”
Hearing the name Lou Xin, shock flashed past Tang Mo’s eyes.
“How do you know her?”
Nan Xun’s lips curled into a mocking smile. She was glad that she had stuck to her heart and had not been charmed by his sugar-coated words.
That was why she was not so sad and hurt when she found out that he had a new lover.
“How can I not know that you’re stepping on me now?” Nan Xun really did not like to argue with him at home because of his woman outside. “Do you think I’m too easy to bully, or do you think you have a sense of achievement in s.n.a.t.c.hing resources?”
Nan Xun rubbed his temples. “Forget it. You can do whatever you want. I’m not as rich and powerful as you. Can my men avoid you in the future?”
Nan Xun retracted her wrist and strode out.
But she had just opened the bedroom door a crack when she heard a bang and the door was closed by the person behind her.
Then, he turned Nan Xun’s shoulder forcefully.
His grip on her shoulders was very strong, as if he wanted to crush her bones. “Nan Xun, tell me clearly. What do you mean I have a woman outside?”
“Lou Xin is just a younger sister to me. Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know anything!”
“also, I’m not clear about the resources. You can’t accuse me!”
The vein on his forehead popped out and it seemed like he was furious with her.
Nan Xun pushed his hands away from her shoulders. He lost his balance and took a few steps back.
“Sister? You must be a lover. Tang Mo, it’s hard to change your nature. You’re such a person!”
‘Tang Mo’s handsome face turned ashen. He clenched his fists tightly and swung them at Nan Xun with red eyes.
Nan Xun thought that he was going to explode and her mind went blank. She stood on the spot, unable to move.
‘There was a loud bang by her ear and Tang Mo punched the door beside her. His fist brushed past her ear with a sharp wind.
Nan Xun could not say anything for a long time.
“Nan Xun, you never trusted me from the beginning.” In her heart, he was a person who was used to spending money outside. No matter how sincere he was to her, she would still think that he was that kind of person if there was any movement.
‘Tang Mo’s jaw tightened. “I will find out about the resources. Also, don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. I won’t let you get what you want if you want to catch me messing around outside!”
With that said, he pushed her away, opened the door and left with a dark expression.
Nan Xun stood on the spot, unable to react for a long time.
She was the one who should be angry, but why did it seem like he had been wronged?
Tang Mo came downstairs and Mrs Tang happened to send the ladies away.
Seeing that Tang Mo was going out, Mrs Tang frowned. “It’s so late. Where are you going?”
‘Tang Mo said, “She can’t wait for me to leave!”
Mrs Tang looked at Tang Mo’s expression. “Did the two of you fight?”
‘Tang Mo waved his hand. “No, I have some private matters to attend to. I won’t be back tonight.”
After Tang Mo got into the car, he called Ye Jie.
“Brother, I couldn’t get anything out of Nan Xun. I can’t help you this time.”
Ye Jie stood in front of the French windows. From the French windows, he could look down at the night sky of the capital. The view was wide and dazzling.
He had just taken a bath and was wearing a sleeping robe. His collar was slightly opened and she could vaguely see his well-defined chest.
He was holding his phone with one hand and a gla.s.s of red wine with the other. There were still beads of water on his forehead, adding some softness and s.e.xiness to his cold face.
Hearing Tang Mo’s words, he pursed his lips slightly. “Did you fight with Nan Xun?”
“You could feel it on the phone? Yes, I fought with her and she suspected my relations.h.i.+p with Xinxin for no reason. Don’t you think it’s infuriating?”
Ye Jie was silent for a few seconds. “You should explain it to her properly when you have time.”
“F*ck, women are really troublesome and hard to coax!”
After Ye Jie ended the call with Tang Mo, he took a sip of red wine and opened the WeChat dialog box with Bo Cixue.
It had been a long time since they had sent each other WeChat messages.
On the day of the engagement, she had sent a message to ask him why he was not there yet.
In the last line, she sent three crying emojis.
Ye Jie stared at her for a long time before he opened her feed.
She seemed to like to post on her social media recently. A day ago, she had posted photos of her feeding stray cats on the road. Three days ago, she had posted photos of her attending the opening of her friend’s bar. Five days ago, she had posted photos of her working afternoon. Ten days ago.
Ye Jie froze on the photo she had sent ten days ago.
It was a scene of her sitting on the plane and taking photos of the white clouds outside the window. If one looked closely, they would see the outline of the man’s face looking down at the newspaper.
It was not clear, but Ye Jie could tell at a glance that it was the man’s face.
His grip on the phone tightened slightly. After a while, he threw the phone on the table, a trace of frustration appearing between his eyebrows.
Tiantian could not sleep in the middle of the night and planned to go downstairs to drink a gla.s.s of milk. When she pa.s.sed by the study, she saw that it was still bright inside. She pushed the door open gently and saw Ye Jie standing in front of the French windows, calling softly, “Brother.”
Tiantian was shocked when she was kidnapped by Cheng Yan.
After she returned, the psychiatrist mediated her a few times before she slowly recovered.
Seeing Tiantian, Ye Jie’s cold expression softened. “You’re not asleep yet?”
Tiantian walked into the study. “I woke up after a nap. Brother, are you in a bad mood?”
Ye Jie smirked slightly. “No, don’t think too much.”
Tiantian pouted. “Brother, I’ve already grown up. I’m not a child anymore!” Tiantian tilted her head, looking like she was thinking. “I guess Brother is thinking about Sister Apple, right?”
Ye Jie wanted to say no, but he could not deny it.
Seeing that her brother was silent, Tiantian giggled. “Brother, don’t feel embarra.s.sed. Sister Apple is so outstanding. If I were a boy, I would like her!”
“You don’t know how touched and worried I was when Sister Apple went to save me… I can’t give myself to you in this life. I’m counting on Big Brother to repay my kindness!”
Ye Jie raised his long fingers and knocked Tiantian’s head lightly. “Have you contacted her recently?”
Tiantian nodded. “I went to see a psychiatrist a few days ago and she went with me.”
Ye Jie could not help but think of when he saw her at night. She had told him that she had been busy with a project recently and had not had time to visit him at the hospital.
Such an obvious excuse.
“Brother, you haven’t made up with Sister Apple, have you?”
“It’s too late. Go to sleep.” It was obvious that he did not want to talk too much about his feelings.
Tiantian looked at her brother’s dark expression and snorted softly. “Brother, don’t underestimate me. With my help, maybe there will be progress between you and Sister Apple!”
“There’s a Hollywood science fiction movie this weekend. If I ask Sister Apple to watch it, she will definitely accompany me!” Tiantian blinked at Ye Jie playfully. “Should I give the chance to Big Brother?”
Ye Jie narrowed his dark eyes and imitated her tone. “What do you think?”
Tiantian thought that her brother looked so scary when he was not smiling!
It was the weekend.
Bo Cixue had received Tiantian’s invitation early and went to the movies with her during the weekend.
But unfortunately, Caesar came.
Caesar was Smith’s cousin. Bo Cixue had met him at Mr Smith’s house the other time.
Caesar was the youngest and most handsome chief pilot of A Country’s airline. His father was the Duke of A Country and he was the heir of the Duke. He liked to take risks and challenge new things. Four years ago, he fell in love with flying planes, so he took the pilot’s test. Then, he was chosen by the
airline to be the chief pilot as the best pilot in the school.
Caesar was a person who was extremely successful in everything he did.
After interacting with him a few times, Bo Cixue could not help but be attracted to him.
The two of them had a common interest and hobby. Every time they met, they would chat endlessly.
Caesar was very handsome. His facial features were well-defined and he had deep blue eyes like Mr Smith. Every time he looked at her, she felt like she was looking at a blue sea.
Bo Cixue knew how to drive a sports car and motorcycle, but not a plane. Caesar had promised her last time that he would take her to fly a private plane when he was on vacation.
He happened to be on leave this weekend.
However, Bo Cixue had already promised Tiantian to watch the movie. After Caesar found out, he said to her, “I’m also interested in that movie. You can go watch it with that sister. I’ll sit behind you and not disturb you. I’ll take you to fly the plane after you’re done.”
Bo Cixue did not stand on ceremony with him. “Okay.”
‘When they arrived at the entrance of the cinema, Bo Cixue and Caesar went in one after another.
Bo Cixue did not see Tiantian and was about to call her when a tall figure walked up to her.
Bo Cixue looked up at the man in the mask and met the man’s deep black eyes. She was slightly stunned for a moment before she said in surprise, “Brother Xiaojie, why are you here?”
