Chapter 524 Feeling Lovelorn
Shao Xue was slightly stunned by Mei Qi’s words.
Then she asked Mei Qi, “What do you mean?”
Mei Qi wasn’t going to hide anything from her, so he said directly, “I don’t think things can work out between us. You’d better not take it seriously, Miss Shao.”
Hearing that, Shao Xue felt like being slapped in the face.
And she no longer felt happy about the time when being alone with Mei Qi.
She understood what Mei Qi meant.
Mei Qi was telling her that he didn’t like her.
It was just that she didn’t even have the chance to tell him her feelings.
She didn’t know what to do and felt it unpalatable.
After drinking the tea handed over by Shao Xue, Mei Qi said, “Thanks for the tea. The party is almost over, so I have to wait for Manager Song outside now.”
After finishing the tea, Mei Qi went outside to wait for Song Yunxuan.
Hearing that the door was closed by Mei Qi, Shao Xue couldn’t help sighing gently.
As expected, Mei Qi didn’t like her.
Though Song Yunxuan intended to pair her off with Mei Qi, it didn’t work.
She pressed her lips and drank that pot of tea in the private room alone.
While drinking the premium Longjing Tea, she should have enjoyed a faint taste.
However, she only felt a bitter taste in her mouth.
Song Yunxuan had thought that something would happen between Mei Qi and Shao Xue while they were with each other alone.
However, she was wrong.
At the end of the party, Song Yunxuan left first as usual.
She thought Mei Qi would stay a bit longer with Shao Xue in the private room and call her after driving Shao Xue home.
But she was wrong.
Shortly after she walked out of the restaurant, she saw that Mei Qi was hooting at her in the car whose headlights were on.
She slightly frowned. After confirming that it was Mei Qi who sat in the car, she walked over. Then she pulled the door open and got in the car.
She asked Mei Qi, “Why did you come out this soon?”
“Miss Shao and I can be friends.”
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan asked him immediately, “Never thought of being her boyfriend?”
“That’s not appropriate.” Mei Qi started the car, turned the steering wheel, and drove Song Yunxuan to the Song Family, saying, “You’ve been out for too long without telling Childe Chu about it. He should be worried by now.”
“No, he won’t. He has someone to tail me.”
Otherwise, Chu Mochen should have called her an hour ago.
Chu Mochen always watched over her.
It was for her protection, and she didn’t feel unhappy about it anymore.
Song Yunxuan wanted to pair Shao Xue off with Mei Qi and wait to see if they could hit off.
But hearing Mei Qi’s words today, Song Yunxuan knew that it was impossible for them to be together.
Otherwise, Mei Qi would never say that.
“I’ll drive you home, Manager Song. It’s late now.”
Mei Qi drove to the Song Family.
Song Yunxuan nodded and didn’t ask further, although she felt that Shao Xue had some feelings for Mei Qi.
Shao Xue might feel upset now as Mei Qi rejected her.
When arriving at the gate of the Song Family, Mei Qi said, “The Shao’s board meeting is about to begin. Who will be sent?”
“Choose the best man for me. The Song Family can not show in the board meeting, or we will hog the limelight.”
Mei Qi nodded, replying, “How about choosing a man from the Family Sophia?”
Song Yunxuan’s eyes lit up, replying, “Good idea. The Family Sophia should be willing to help me.”
“As long as Miss Lu Xia has a foothold in the Family Sophia, they will surely help you.”
Song Yunxuan gave a brief smile, saying, “That’s right.”
In the Family Sophia, Lu Xia had always been a woman from Yuncheng. Besides, the Lu Family’s property belonged to her.
Even though the Family Sophia was taking care of the Lu Family, Lu Xia could not let down her guard. Besides, Song Yunxuan had once helped Lu Xia.
So it was natural for Lu Xia to ask the Family Sophia to help Song Yunxuan.
After Mei Qi finished his words, they arrived at the gate of the Song Family.
He got off the car to open the door for Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan invited him to have a cup of tea.
Taking a look at the time, Mei Qi refused politely, “It’s getting late. I have to be off now.”
Sensing his reluctance, Song Yunxuan didn’t push him. She nodded and replied, “Take care.”
Mei Qi said “um” and then drove off.
After the car went out of sight, Song Yunxuan turned around and prepared to enter the villa.
Just at that time, someone put a coat on her.
She looked down and saw that it was Chu Mochen’s coat.
At the moment, Chu Mochen was looking at her in the back, questioning, “Why did you return this late?”
“I thought you knew where I went.” Song Yunxuan turned around, looking at him.
Chu Mochen gently wrapped the coat around her, replying, “Don’t stay out too late. I’m worried about you.”
“You’ve sent someone to tail me, right?”
“Just for your own protection. I hope you can understand.”
“Sure, I get it.”
Song Yunxuan felt that Chu Mochen held her fingers with his big hand, so she also held his hand in return.
Chu Mochen raised her lips, looking at her, “Had a good time tonight?”
“I was going to pair Shao Xue off with Mei Qi during the dinner party.”
“And?”
“It didn’t work out.” Song Yunxuan felt a bit disappointed and helpless.
Chu Mochen couldn’t help chuckling.
Seeing that, Song Yunxuan felt a bit annoyed, questioning, “I failed. What’s so funny?”
Sensing her anger, Chu Mochen stopped smiling at once, explaining himself, “Love is mysterious. When it happens, it happens.”
“I failed anyway.” Song Yunxuan walked into the living room and sat on the sofa, stroking her eyebrows.
Seeing that, Chu Mochen felt a bit worried, asking, “Are you having a headache again?”
Sensing his anxiety, Song Yunxuan turned to look at him, replying, “Not that serious. I just feel that it’s hard for me to set Mei Qi up with Shao Xue.”
“So just leave it alone. If they don’t like each other, it’s impossible for them to be together. Besides, it’s easy for them to find their lovers as they are both excellent individuals.”
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, “You are right. I may as well leave it alone.”
Seeing that she stopped stroking her eyebrows, Chu Mochen said, “Want something to eat?”
“I’ve had enough during the dinner party in Fanxing.”
“Then take a shower now and go to bed.”
“Alright.”
Song Yunxuan got up and walked to the bedroom.
After taking a change of underwear from the bedroom, Song Yunxuan prepared to enter the bathroom. Just at that time, Chu Mochen gently slipped his arms around her waist and whispered to her, “Want me to join you?”
Song Yunxuan looked over her shoulder, replying, “Come on, stop it. I have something important to deal with tomorrow.”
“This is also something important.”
Song Yunxuan looked at him.
Chu Mochen pecked her on the cheek, saying, “I hope we can have a baby soon.”
Song Yunxuan lowered her eyes, saying, “When it happens, it happens.”
Though it was fate, she could guarantee that she would have a baby after finishing all her plans.
And now it was not good timing.
Song Yunxuan gently pressed her lips and walked to the bathroom for a shower.
When entering the bedroom after the shower, she found that Chu Mochen had been waiting for her on the bed in pajamas.
She threw back the quilt and got on the bed. Then Chu Mochen gently lay on her.
Song Yunxuan put her hands against his chest, saying, “I have to teach Zhou Ziyan a lesson tomorrow.”
“That happens tomorrow, right?”
Chu Mochen whispered to her, and she could feel his warm breath made her flush.
“Hey… Don’t… Oh…”
Though she really wanted to push Chu Mochen away.
When Chu Mochen kissed her, she had nowhere to hide.
Gradually, she was turned on and lost in Chu Mochen’s kiss.
Chu Mochen reached out to turn off the light, and the bedroom was plunged into darkness.
Nothing but Song Yunxuan’s pant entered Chu Mochen’s ears in the night, which made Chu Mochen more turned on.
Song Yunxuan could never stop Chu Mochen from doing what he wanted. In the past, it was because Chu Mochen forced her to do so.
But now, it was because of Chu Mochen’s imperceptible tenderness.
It made her unable to turn him down.
So, she let nature took its course.
Not until the next morning did she remember that she should have called Shao Xue.
However, after Chu Mochen held her in his arms, she forgot everything.
She got up from the bed, rested her head in her hands, and pondered. Finally, Song Yunxuan took her phone and called Shao Xue.
Shao Xue had also just woken up and felt a bit surprised when receiving Song Yunxuan’s call, answering, “What’s up, Yunxuan?”
“How was the talk between you and Mei Qi?”
“I’ve let you down.” Shao Xue wasn’t embarra.s.sed. Instead, she said directly, “a.s.sistant Mei doesn’t like girls like me.”
Song Yunxuan was also at a loss of what to do, replying, “So do you like him?”
Shao Xue didn’t reply.
Seeing that, Song Yunxuan knew that Shao Xue liked him.
If she hadn’t liked him, she would have instantly said it.
But her silence showed that she acquiesced to it.
Song Yunxuan nodded, saying, “If you like him, go for it. Maybe you can make a difference.”
Hearing that, Shao Xue pressed her lips, replying, “Thanks for the encouragement.”
It was just that Mei Qi seemed to be totally uninterested in her.
Even if she tried, she might not be satisfied.
