Chapter 16 Mo Baobao, tell me your instructions as soon as possible.
A big question mark appeared in Chu Rou's eyes.
Mo Chi grasped Chu Rou's hand. "Auntie, my feelings for Rou Rou are genuine."
Two question marks appeared in Chu Rou's clear eyes.
What did she miss? How did things get to this point?
"Sister, Mo Chi, what did you do these past two days while I was gone?" Shen Luo sighed three times in a row.
Mo Chi gave Shen Luo a look that told her to shut up, and Shen Luo obediently shut her lips.
"Rou Rou, you and Mo Chi..." Shi Jingman pointed at the two of them, "are you living together?"
“Mom, and me too,” Shen Luo interjected from the side, “my sister is going to stay with me.”
Shi Jingman was at her wit's end. She sorted out her thoughts and said, "Rou Rou broke up with He Wei and went to live with Xiao Luo. The three of you lived together, and then Rou Rou and Mo Chi got together. Didn't that idiot Xiao Luo know?"
"Auntie is wise!" Mo Chi exclaimed, giving a thumbs-up.
Chu Rou tried to speak several times, but Mo Chi stopped her each time.
Shi Jingman frowned slightly. "Auntie isn't a conservative person. You're younger than Rou Rou, but if you're serious about dating, I can agree. Auntie is just worried that you might dislike Rou Rou in a few years."
Chu Rou immediately objected upon hearing this, "Mom, what does he have to complain about? I'm perfect from head to toe, and age is not a problem, as long as he has the power."
Chu Rou raised her fist, and Mo Chi silently grasped it and pulled it down. "Auntie, don't worry, I won't look down on her."
Shi Jingman nodded. Mo Chi was the same age as Shen Luo, but he looked much more mature. "Mo Chi, our family can't come up with that 1.5 million all at once. We might have to pay you back in installments."
"No need to return it, mine is Rou Rou's."
Shi Jingman didn't give any more leeway, only thinking that Chu Rou would gradually return the ink to Mo Chi in the future.
Chu Rou and Mo Chi didn't eat breakfast or lunch. Shi Jingman asked Mo Chi to stay for a meal, and Mo Chi didn't refuse.
After finishing dinner, Mo Chi stood up and said, "Auntie, Uncle, we're going back now. We have class tomorrow morning."
Shen Luo and Chu Rou also stood up, preparing to go back with Mo Chi.
"Rou Rou," Shi Jingman called out to Chu Rou, "If you have nowhere to stay, come home and stay here."
Chu Rou had a sudden thought: going home to live would be nice, with food and drinks readily available.
Mo Chi whispered in her ear, "Sister, don't forget, you still owe me money!"
Chu Rou's face fell. She had forgotten about this matter; she still had to go back and work like a slave to pay off her debts. "Mom, I think I'll go stay with Xiao Luo. I can take care of them and cook them some good food."
Shen Luo also wanted to eat Chu Rou's cooking every day. "Mom, let my sister live with me, otherwise I won't have anything to eat."
Shi Jingman thought for a moment. One was Rou Rou's boyfriend, and the other was Rou Rou's younger brother. It was reasonable for them to live together. "Okay then, Mo Chi, come over with Rou Rou whenever you have time. Auntie will cook something delicious for you."
...
Chu Rou and her two siblings returned to their own house. Shen Luo questioned Mo Chi, "Mo Chi, what exactly happened between you and my sister? Did you bully her while I was away?"
"You're overthinking it," Chu Rou patted Shen Luo's shoulder. "Our relationship is completely innocent."
Shen Luo looked puzzled. "What did Mo Chi mean when he said he was sincere to you in front of Mom?"
Chu Rou was also confused and looked at Mo Chi with a questioning expression.
Mo Chi cleared his throat. "Aren't Chu Rou and I just pretending to be a couple? This way it's more convenient for both of us."
Chu Rou thought it made sense. "If one of us meets someone we like, then we should announce our breakup immediately."
Mo Chi's eyes darkened, and he remained silent.
Shen Luo scratched his head, feeling that something was a little off.
Thinking of her job with an annual salary of 300,000, Chu Rou moved closer to Mo Chi and helped him take off his coat. "My dear Mo baby, would you like something to drink?"
A smile appeared in Mo Chi's eyes. "A cup of coffee, please."
Chu Rou was slightly taken aback, but immediately changed her expression, "Why drink coffee so late at night? I'll go heat up some milk for you."
Mo Chi raised an eyebrow, showing no displeasure at being disobeyed; in fact, he felt a warmth in his heart, finding it quite nice to be cared for.
Chu Rou hung up Mo Chi's coat and then took out two cartons of milk from the refrigerator.
Shen Luo was a little dumbfounded. What was wrong with his sister? Why was she suddenly being so nice to Mo Chi? He was the biological younger brother, okay? There was no love left!
Chu Rou brought out a cup of hot milk and handed it to Mo Chi, saying, "Mo baby, drink it while it's hot. A cup of hot milk will help you sleep tonight. Go to bed early tonight."
Mo Chi took the milk, took a sip, and found the temperature to be just right. He tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp, then handed the empty cup to Chu Rou. "I want to eat wontons again tomorrow morning."
Chu Rou gave an OK sign, "Arrange it!"
Mo Chi returned to his room satisfied.
"Sister~" Shen Luo looked at Chu Rou pitifully, "Am I still your biological brother?"
Chu Rou suppressed a laugh as she went into the kitchen, then came out with a glass of milk and handed it to Shen Luo, saying, "There's some for you, drink it!"
Shen Luo drank half a cup in one gulp. "Sister, why are you suddenly being so nice to Mo Chi?"
“Silly boy,” Chu Rou patted Chen Luo’s head, “haven’t you heard the saying, ‘He who takes a man’s money is bound to be grateful for his food’? Mo Chi paid 1.5 million, so I have to treat him like royalty.”
Shen Luo scratched his head, "Sister, do I have to treat him like a statue from now on?"
“This is between him and me, it has nothing to do with you. You two are good brothers, so just do what you’re supposed to do, you don’t need to give in to him.”
Chu Rou's words put Shen Luo at ease. He still wanted to pursue the most beautiful girl in the department. Although she seemed to like Mo Chi more, he still wanted to give it a try.
...
Chu Rou slept soundly through the night and got up on time the next day to go for a morning run. She also bought vegetables and meat and made the fresh meat wontons that Mo Chi had requested.
Mo Chi ate to his heart's content, finding it rare to be in such a good mood after waking up early.
Chu Rougong saw Young Master Mo off at the door, saying, "Mo Baobao, take care. Feel free to message me anytime if you have any food requests for tonight."
Mo Chi smiled slightly, nodded, and went out with Shen Luo.
Chu Rou also packed up and went to work at the company.
As soon as Chu Rou entered the company gate, the receptionist called out to her, "Manager Chu, we happen to have some flowers for you!"
Flowers? Chu Rou walked over, and the person who delivered the flowers was still there.
"Who told you to send flowers over?" Chu Rou asked.
"We cannot disclose customer information casually."
Chu Rou was puzzled. He Wei was already in bed, so why would he send her flowers? "Did the person who sent the flowers order them today?"
"That gentleman paid for a month's worth of roses to be delivered to you every workday."
Chu Rou didn't want to make things difficult for the flower delivery guy, so she had no choice but to sign for the flowers and take them upstairs.
Chu Rou saw Xiao Li and tossed the flowers to her, saying, "I received flowers this month, so please collect them all for me!"
"Okay!"
Chu Rou had just sat down when she received a call from her boss, asking her to come over.
She entered her boss's office. "Mr. Li, what can I do for you?"
Mr. Li pointed to the chair opposite his desk and said, "Xiao Chu is here, please have a seat."
"That's right. Sales Director He is temporarily unable to work due to health reasons, so headquarters has sent a new director to temporarily replace him."
Chu Rou nodded. He Wei had cut his wrists and was hospitalized, so he couldn't work, but what did that have to do with her?
Mr. Li continued, "Because the new Director Mo is not very familiar with the product, he hopes that our R&D department can send someone over to provide technical support for a period of time."
"After thinking about it, I think you're the most suitable person in our R&D department. Go back and pack your things, and then go to the sales department to work with Director Mo in a little while."
Chu Rou: "Huh? I've been demoted to the director's secretary?"
