Qin Momo lost her balance instantly, and her body crashed uncontrollably into the back seat of the passenger seat. The impact hurt her forehead, and before she could recover, she bounced back to her original position due to inertia.
Her eyes were full of astonishment, and then they quickly returned to indifference. No one could tell whether she was filled with anger or disappointment.
The wind from outside blew in through the car window, scraping her cheeks like a knife, and the pain went straight into her heart.
He pursed his lips, slowly reached out to raise the car window, blocking the cold wind outside.
Although Qin Momo didn't make any sound, Sister Wang saw it clearly and didn't know how painful it was. She opened her lips and asked her silently, "Does it hurt?"
Qin Momo shook her head, clenched her phone tightly with both hands, her knuckles turned white from the force, and her head slowly lowered.
This little pain was nothing to her. She had done two open drainage surgeries without anesthesia! The nurses present all frowned as they watched the surgeon perform the operation.
As soon as they entered the city, Sister Wang asked Shen Yi to drop them off at the subway station. After they got off the train, Sister Wang quickly lifted Qin Momo's veil and looked at her forehead: "Let me see!"
Qin Momo chuckled: "Sister Wang, it's really okay, it doesn't hurt at all."
Sister Wang frowned and said, "What do you mean it's okay? It's all red! Is there a drugstore nearby? I can buy some safflower oil and apply it."
"It's okay, Sister Wang. I have some at home."
Cao Xinyuan stared at the two people who had been standing there after getting off the car through the rearview mirror. After watching Sister Wang's actions, she looked at Shen Yi.
"Shen Yi, speaking of our relationship as a fake engaged couple, you haven't introduced me to anyone except for pretending in front of your parents. Is this pretty girl your ex-girlfriend who you can't forget?"
Shen Yi put his left hand on the car window and turned the steering wheel with his right hand. He ignored her thoughts and was only thinking about whether the collision Qin Momo had just suffered was serious.
Cao Xinyuan was not discouraged, and said gloatingly: "Then you are done for today!"
Shen Yi glanced at her coldly: "What do you mean?"
Cao Xinyuan had a hopeless expression on her face: "Why are you asking me what I mean? Come on! Big brother, you are too much for treating a girl like that! If it were me, I would never forgive you in my life."
Shen Yi replied to her: "I didn't mean it." After he increased the speed, he saw that she was also taking pictures with her mobile phone.
Cao Xinyuan pouted: "What's the point of you telling me? You didn't explain when she was in the car just now. I think it's useless even if you chase her and explain now. She probably won't believe it. Oh! Since you still have feelings for her, why don't you chase her back? Why did you two break up?"
As soon as she finished asking, Shen Yi stopped the car by the road with a creaking sound: "Get out."
Cao Xinyuan: “Why?”
Shen Yi: "You talk too much!"
Cao Xinyuan: “…”
Humph! If you keep pretending here, you will cry one day.
…
Just after lunch on Monday, Sister Wang came over to tell Qin Momo that Xingyao Technology was going to use their company's ideas and gave them time to sign the contract.
The leader was afraid of any trouble, so he asked his subordinates to go to Xingyao to sign the contract that day.
The Xingyao Technology Advertising project was a lucrative piece of meat that all of their peers were eyeing closely, but they never expected that their company would be able to secure it so easily.
The leader was happy and said that he would treat everyone to dinner in the evening. Normally, everyone knew that Qin Momo rarely attended such gatherings.
But the leader said that this was also an indirect celebration party for her and Sister Wang, so she couldn't refuse and just went with everyone.
When they arrived at the hotel, Qin Momo discovered that Shen Yi was there too. The leader seemed particularly excited to have dinner with Shen Yi.
Qin Momo chose a seat farthest away from Shen Yi and sat down, and Sister Wang sat next to her.
Sister Wang is the only one in the company who understands Qin Momo's true situation. She helps her whenever she can, both at work and in life. She feels sorry for this kind-hearted girl who has no one to rely on.
Drinking is inevitable at the dinner, and the leader insisted that Sister Wang and Qin Momo toast Shen Yi.
"Xiao Wang, you and Momo should toast to Mr. Shen and thank him for giving us such a good opportunity."
Sister Wang and Qin Momo stood up at the same time. Qin Momo held the wine glass and explained awkwardly: "Boss Tan, I can't drink alcohol. Can I have water instead?"
When Mr. Tan heard this, he immediately became unwilling. He secretly glanced at Shen Yi, the God of Wealth, and saw that he just lowered his eyes and didn't say anything. He couldn't tell the emotion on his face, and felt that he must be unhappy too.
"Momo! How can water replace wine? I didn't ask you to drink more. It's fine if you don't drink normally! But today this glass of wine is for Mr. Shen, so no matter what, just get over it and drink this glass of wine."
Qin Momo held the wine glass tightly, thinking about the consequences of drinking it, but before she could raise the glass, her arm was stopped by Sister Wang beside her.
Sister Wang shook her head at her, signaling her not to take such a risk. Then she looked up at Shen Yi and spoke in an apologetic tone.
"Boss Shen, I'm so sorry. How about this? I'll drink this glass of wine for Momo. The child is in poor health, and drinking alcohol will have a counter-effect on the medicine she takes."
Shen Yi was stunned when he heard this, and quickly raised his eyes to look at Qin Momo. The illness he had two years ago hasn't healed yet?
He didn't mean to make things difficult for anyone. He told girls not to drink. At today's dinner, men could drink if they wanted, and women could drink fruit juice instead.
He spoke, and Mr. Tan naturally followed his orders. He even said to the ladies sitting there flatteringly, "You are so lucky to have a client like Mr. Shen."
Liu Wen, who was in the same group with Qin Momo, had always disliked Qin Momo. Today, she even said that she would take this opportunity to teach her a lesson, but she ended up dodging her so easily!
She glanced at Qin Momo, who was eating without saying a word, and said sarcastically, "Momo, you don't eat much, why are you so fat?"
Qin Momo was stunned when she heard this, and she clenched the chopsticks in her hand.
Sister Wang glared at Liu Wen angrily, and patted Qin Momo's leg under the table, signaling her not to listen to Liu Wen's nonsense.
"She got fat by eating your rice? Why are you yelling?"
No one had ever thought that Shen Yi would speak, and what he said was not very polite.
Qin Momo was also a little surprised that Shen Yi would speak up for her, even though he also thought she was an annoying fat guy before.
As soon as Shen Yi opened his mouth, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and President Tan looked at Liu Wen with a reproachful look.
At this moment, Liu Wen only felt her face burning. She wanted to cry but didn't dare to.
After everyone finished their meal, they went home. Sister Wang took the subway directly, and Qin Momo said she would take the bus in front, which would go directly to her doorstep.
While waiting for the bus, a car stopped in front of her. Qin Momo saw Shen Yi sitting in the back of the car through the lowered window and was stunned.
"Get in the car." Shen Yi said.
Qin Momo looked back and made sure he was talking to her, but she still politely refused.
"Thank you, Mr. Shen. The car I'm waiting for is coming soon!"
Shen Yi stared at her straight, and even under the street light, he could clearly see a red and swollen spot on his forehead.
He clenched and unclenched his fists, opened the car door, got out, stood opposite Qin Momo, and looked down at her nervous and helpless expression.
She had never been like this during the two years she was with me. Back then, she was lively and cheerful, and she was like a little chatterbox with endless things to say all day long.
