Chapter 120 Exceptional Talent Isn't Just a Title
Food spilled all over Sun Li, while Qi Lin stood opposite her, arms crossed, just watching.
"Qi Lin, you've gone too far!" Sun Li got up from the ground with red eyes, tears dripping onto the floor.
Qi Lin didn't think she had gone too far at all. Her expression was indifferent. "You were the one who insisted on taking it. I couldn't take it from you, so you just let go?"
"Besides, I've already told you that Mo Chi isn't interested in you. What's the point of you still chasing after him?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Sun Li cried as she replied, "I was just delivering lunch to President Chi, how is that considered 'sticking up' to him!"
"What are you doing?" Mo Chi heard the commotion outside and came out.
"President Chi!" Sun Li cried even harder when she saw Mo Chi, her clothes soaked in soup, looking very disheveled.
Mo Chi ignored Sun Li and looked at Qi Lin instead, "Qi Lin, what's going on?"
Qi Lin remained calm and spoke in a lazy tone, "It's nothing. She was fighting with me to bring you lunch, and I couldn't take it from her, so I let go. She fell down and then pretended to cry, as if I had bullied her."
Qi Lin gave Mo Chi a warning look. If he dared to side with Sun Li, she would definitely exaggerate and complain to Chu Rou.
Mo Chi glared at Qi Lin, "You've only been here one day, and you're already causing me trouble!"
He glanced at the food on the ground, paced back and forth irritably with his hands on his hips, and finally frowned and snorted, "This is so annoying!"
Mo Chi walked back to his office.
Qi Lin: ...
What? That's it?
Five minutes later, Mo Chi came out carrying his laptop bag, dressed neatly. He glanced at Qi Lin and Sun Li, his tone filled with anger, "What a bad day! I didn't even get to eat lunch. You two are responsible for cleaning up the floor. I'm leaving!"
By the time Qi Lin realized what was happening, Mo Chi had already entered the elevator and gone downstairs.
Mo Chi had just left when Qin Feng returned. Seeing the mess on the ground, he was quite surprised. "What happened?"
Qi Lin was too lazy to explain to Qin Feng, so she snorted and went back to her seat.
Sun Li tearfully recounted the whole story to Qin Feng.
However, there is some discrepancy between what Qi Lin said and what Sun Li said. She said that Qi Lin deliberately pushed her down.
After listening to Sun Li's account, Qi Lin snorted coldly and did not argue. Whether she did it on purpose or not, so what? Who could do anything to her?
Sure enough, Qin Feng glanced at Qi Lin cautiously, sighed, and said to Sun Li, "Sun, your clothes are dirty. I'll give you half a day off to go home and clean them."
Sun Li glared at Qi Lin, who gave her a provocative smile.
Sun Li is gone.
Qin Feng hired a cleaning service to clean the floor.
He wanted to go find Mo Chi, but found the office door locked.
Glasses Girl and Big Waves hadn't returned yet; only Qi Lin was there. Qin Feng asked, "Miss Qi, do you know where President Chi went?"
"He left, saying he was annoyed by me and hadn't had lunch yet."
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything more. Others might not know, but he did. Mo Chi was just making an excuse to go home and keep the young mistress company.
Mo Chi ran home at noon, much to Chu Rou's delight. "Mo Bao, you're back so early today!"
"I have to thank Qi Lin today," Mo Chi said with a smile as he put his arm around Chu Rou. "Luckily, she started causing trouble on her very first day at my place, otherwise I wouldn't have had an excuse to come back!"
"What did Qi Lin do this time?" Chu Rou asked with interest.
Mo Chi recounted the events to Chu Rou, who remained silent for a moment before saying, "Qi Lin seems to act like a little lamb in front of me."
Mo Chi agreed wholeheartedly, and lowered his head to kiss Chu Rou, "You are her nemesis."
Chu Rou looked up at the ink pond, "Am I not your nemesis?"
"Yes, I can never escape your grasp in this lifetime."
Mo Chi wanted to kiss Chu Rou, but her small, delicate hand blocked his lips. "Don't be silly. I'll go make you something to eat. Wasn't your lunch spilled on the floor?"
Mo Chi released Chu Rou. "Fine, you feed me first, then I'll feed you!"
"You're so irresponsible!" Chu Rou glared at Mo Chi before heading to the kitchen.
Mo Chi stood at the kitchen doorway, watching Chu Rou busy at work, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.
Chu Rou will be returning to City C tomorrow, and the two of them will be separated for a while again.
Sigh! Mo Chi sighed inwardly. When would he be able to openly reveal his true identity to Chu Rou?
The more outstanding Chu Rou became, the more uncertain Mo Chi felt. He was terrified that Chu Rou would be taken away by someone else, and even with a marriage certificate, he still felt uneasy.
Qi Hang is eagerly waiting on the sidelines, and there's also a hidden ex-boyfriend who might pop up at any moment.
Mo Chi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Chu Rou picked up the plate and turned around. Seeing Mo Chi's pained expression, she asked with concern, "Mo Bao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Mo Chi relaxed his brows, took the plate, and walked to the dining table with Chu Rou in his arms. He placed the plate on the table and hugged Chu Rou tightly.
"Rou Rou, you won't leave me, will you?"
Chu Rou was completely confused. "Did you do something to betray me?"
"How is that possible!"
"Then why would you ask that?"
"I'm afraid you'll be snatched away by another man," Mo Chi said sullenly.
Chu Rou chuckled. "Are you that insecure? Aren't you exceptionally talented?"
Mo Chi didn't know whether to be happy or angry. He pinched Chu Rou's nose and said, "So, you only want my body."
“And your good looks,” Chu Rou removed Mo Chi’s hand and pressed him into a chair. “Stop thinking nonsense and eat first.”
Chu Rou turned and went to the kitchen to serve rice.
After Mo Chi finished eating, he didn't let Chu Rou get out of bed again; his extraordinary talent wasn't something to be taken lightly.
The next day, Mo Chi felt apologetic for not being able to take Chu Rou to the airport. He showered her with affection again early in the morning before reluctantly going to the company.
Chu Rou set an alarm and went back to sleep.
At noon, Chu Rou finished organizing the documents in the study, then left the apartment with her suitcase.
Mo Chi arranged for the car that would take Chu Rou to the airport to be parked downstairs. When Chu Rou came out, the driver's side door opened and Feng Fei got out.
"Miss Chu!" Feng Fei took Chu Rou's suitcase and put it in the trunk.
"Feng Fei, it's you?" Chu Rou asked in surprise.
Feng Fei opened the back door. "President Mo was worried about you going back to City C by yourself, so he asked me to go back with you."
Feng Fei was a man of few words and remained quiet throughout the journey.
The plane arrived in City C at 9 p.m., and people sent by Mo Chi came to pick up Chu Rou.
It takes an hour to drive from the airport to home, so Chu Rou closed her eyes for a short rest.
While Chu Rou was still half asleep, her phone vibrated. She glanced at it and saw that it was Xu Lan calling. Chu Rou pressed the answer button.
"Xu Lan, is something the matter?"
Xu Lan's crying came through the phone, "Sister Chu Rou, I think I've messed up!"
