Chapter 58 Winning the Project
The girl in front of him grinned brightly under the streetlight, "Want a try?"
Huo Qi Chen was skeptical, but Jian Mo had already picked up one and put it to his lips. He chewed it slightly, and suddenly a strange taste filled his mouth. He coughed a few times and immediately spit it out to the shore, where it was washed away by the sea.
Jian Mo laughed like crazy. He had always teased her before, but now he finally succeeded in teasing him.
Huo Qi Chen wiped his lips with his fingertips, and when he turned around he saw this scene: the sea breeze was blowing, and Jian Mo's long hair was blown up. She was holding her stomach and laughing uncontrollably, her smile was vivid and lively, and her whole body was filled with beauty.
If Xiaoxiao were still alive, she would probably grow up to be such a woman.
Seeing him staring at her with ambiguous eyes, Jian Mo's smile faded a little bit, and she apologized decisively: "I was wrong."
Huo Qichen retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go back."
He wasn't angry?
After returning, Jian Mo immediately searched for relevant information about Wang Jing and made an appointment with his assistant to meet him.
Jingfeng is still a running enterprise, not very large in scale. Jian Mo sat in the conference room with a dry mouth.
Wang Jing is already middle-aged, his behavior is very steady, and he exudes the charm of a mature man. At this moment, his expression is embarrassed. "I think I understand what you mean, Miss Jian."
Jian Mo nodded, it was worth it that she talked for so long.
"It's just that I haven't seen her for three years. She hates me and will definitely not give me the copyright." Wang Jing's face was bitter. "According to what you said, since you have gained her trust, why don't you continue?"
The afternoon sun was scorching, shining through the window onto Jian Mo's back, making it feel a little hot.
"Boss Wang, I asked Sister Zhuo a question. I said, do you have any regrets about him? Guess what Sister Zhuo said?"
Wang Jing clasped his hands together, his knuckles turning blue with nervousness. "What did you say?"
"She said she hopes you're doing well."
He relaxed his movements, surprised.
"Our company's designer went to Sister Zhuo and failed to get the copyright. I think even if I asked for it, I might not be able to get it. But if it were you, it wouldn't be certain."
"Ms. Jian...it's like this, is copyright really that important? You could definitely approach this from another angle..."
"Wang Jing, what are you afraid of?" Jian Mo interrupted him by calling him by his name.
He was stunned.
"You don't dare see her."
"I……"
"You betrayed the woman who loved you the most, yet you never dared to face her emotions. You've made her a laughing stock for the past eight years, and now you don't even dare to see her. How cowardly."
Wang Jing didn't say anything, he agreed.
"She's married. Go see her for the last time, even if it's not for the copyright." Jian Mo used her trump card, and saw the man in front of her look surprised, enlightened, and lost.
Ming Garden.
Jian Mo had just finished taking a shower when she received a call from Sister Zhuo. She was silent for a moment and then sarcastically said, "So you are his partner."
It seems that Wang Jing has already gone.
Jian Mo choked and didn't know how to defend herself. Feelings tainted with interests would inevitably become impure in purpose, and her purpose was indeed impure.
"He cried to me today and said he would repent for the rest of his life. Seeing him cry, I suddenly didn't hate him anymore. He can't forget me, and this is the cruelest punishment. So I'm letting go of the copyright, and someone will come to hand it over tomorrow. Miss Jane, congratulations."
Sister Zhuo's voice was slightly sarcastic and a little lonely.
Jian Mo froze for a long time before squeezing out a sentence: "I'm sorry, Sister Zhuo. No matter what, I've opened up your scars for my own performance. I'm really sorry."
There was a soft laugh over there, the sound of the sea breeze. "I don't blame you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have waited until the day he came to see me. Now I've really let it go. You're a good girl, and I believe you can design a warm cover."
Jian Mo relaxed a lot after being suddenly affirmed. She didn't know what to say, so she could only keep thanking him.
Sister Zhuo asked: "The man you were with that day was not your boyfriend, right?"
"I've been discovered... He's my boss." Jian Mo felt embarrassed.
Sister Zhuo chuckled: "The acting is indeed not very good."
After hanging up the phone, Jian Mo was in a daze for a while, then she screamed and ran out excitedly to knock on Huo Qichen's door. For some reason, she always felt that she should share her feelings with him.
Huo Qichen was about to fall asleep when he opened the door and saw the woman blushing with excitement. He paused and said, "Don't talk yet."
Jian Mo nodded vigorously.
"Have you got the copyright?"
He was so smart! Jian Mo jumped up, her joy evident in her words. "I can now start the design smoothly! I've got this project!"
Huo Qi Chen leaned against the door with a smile on his face. She rushed up and hugged his neck, then quickly let go in a brief hug.
"Thank you, Huo Qichen. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to do this smoothly. Woohoo, that's great."
The man's body stiffened slightly, the soft warmth fleeting. He raised his eyes gently, "Congratulations."
"Congratulations!"
"Tomorrow is the weekend, and Grandpa asked us to go back for dinner."
Jian Mo could already agree calmly, "Okay, then I'll prepare well."
Finally, she seemed to feel something was wrong, so she raised her face and looked into the man's lowered gaze. He was very gentle, even a little doting.
Why does it feel like... this scene is like a couple who have been married for many years, so natural...
Huo Qichen seemed to have noticed the change in the atmosphere. He cleared his throat and took a step back. "Go back to sleep."
Jian Mo stood there in a daze, her heart pounding. She almost drowned in his drowning eyes.
Why would Huo Qi Chen show such emotions?
At night, Jian Mo had a dream.
On a very ordinary night at the beach, Huo Qi Chen held her hand and said to her, we will be together forever.
It was not clear in the dream, but Jian Mo was sure that it was Huo Qichen. Even though that kind of gentleness and patience could never appear in him.
The dream was so real, as if it had really happened.
When Jian Mo woke up, it was already dawn. Her face was flushed and she couldn't stop feeling hot.
What are you thinking, Jian Mo! That's Huo Qichen! How could you have such inappropriate thoughts about him?
There was a knock on the door. It was Ju Ma: "Madam, are you awake? It's time to go."
Jian Mo hurriedly got out of bed and asked while tidying herself up: "Where is the husband?"
"Sir, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
She slept for so long!
Jian Mo tidied herself up, hurriedly found the ring and bracelet and put them on. When she went downstairs, she saw Huo Qichen standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, wearing a comfortable home white shirt and black trousers. His back was as gentle as jade.
She hurried downstairs, her breathing a little rapid: "Sorry, the alarm didn't go off."
Huo Qichen narrowed his eyes slightly. It was rare for her to be so anxious in front of him. "No hurry, let's go."
