Chapter 129 Shooting Yourself in the Foot
The hot pot smelled so good, Wenxi was enjoying it so much that he didn't even notice Bai Chuxian's gaze.
"Hui Hui, this hot pot is so delicious! How did you find it?"
"It was also recommended by a friend. By the way, won't Mr. Mu be angry if you don't bring him? I think he's just a jealous person."
"Haha, Huihui, your description is quite appropriate. Even if I wanted to take him, he wouldn't be able to eat it. He's scared of the smell. What about you? Why don't you take Lin Mo with you?"
"I don't want to take him!"
Wenxi glanced at her.
"What's wrong? Did you have a fight?"
"No, he just gave up my house without consulting me and made me live with him."
Wenxi ate a piece of tripe and said with a smile, "He lives at your place every day. What's the difference between you and living together now? Just quit and move in with him. You'll be more comfortable and save on rent. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
Lin Huizi sighed.
"I know there are many benefits to moving there, but I just can't accept him taking the initiative without my consent. It's like I'm his property and he can do whatever he wants. What I hate most is male chauvinism."
Wenxi could understand that Lin Huizi had a strong personality.
How can I tolerate a male chauvinist?
But he still advised: "Since you've already withdrawn, just move over. It's wrong for him to act first and ask for your permission later, but you should also give him a chance to correct his mistakes, right?"
"I'm afraid if I give in, he'll think he's right and continue to do as he pleases. Even more despicable is that he's using my status as boss to block a lot of my work. He's canceled all my out-of-town activities. I only found out about this yesterday."
I was wondering why I was so idle recently. Everyone else in the company was extremely busy, but I felt like I was isolated and had no work to do.
Now everyone looks at me weirdly.
I went to question him, and he actually said that I was already his girlfriend and had already left everyone else behind, so there was no need to work so hard and I should spend more time with him.
It didn’t piss me off.”
Wenxi was surprised. She didn't expect Lin Mo to do such a thing. In comparison, her Mr. Mu was really open-minded and never interfered with her work.
"Then you have to have a good talk with Lin Mo and let him know what you really need. You have your own ideals and ambitions. According to his thinking, after you get married, will he want you to quit your job and go home to be a rich wife?"
"Xiaoxi, your guess is very likely. So, I don't want to give in."
"Where do you live then?"
"I'm staying in a hotel for now."
"Staying in a hotel is not an option, and it's not cheap either."
As she was talking, Lin Huizi's phone rang. She picked up the phone and saw that it was Lin Mo. She hung up without hesitation, but the other party kept calling.
"Just take it. If you have any opinions about him, you should make them clear, right?"
Lin Huizi hesitated for a moment and finally got up and walked out of the store.
Although Bai Chuxian was sitting next to her, it didn't affect her appetite at all.
Bai Mengsheng looked at the red hot pot and didn't know how to eat it.
When I looked up, I saw Wenxi eating with relish. Her mouth was red from the spiciness and her little face was also flushed.
It looks like it's delicious.
Bai Mengsheng picked up a piece of food for himself with chopsticks.
Bai Chuxian and Huang Biqin were stunned. Bai Mengsheng was the first one at their table to pick up his chopsticks.
Took a bite.
Well, it was very spicy, so spicy that his scalp numbed, but he still insisted on eating it.
Look at Bai Chuxian and the others, they haven't started eating yet.
"Xiao Xian, didn't you say this hot pot is delicious? Why aren't you eating?"
Bai Chuxian regretted it so much now. Why did she mention hot pot? Isn't this just shooting herself in the foot?
He picked up the chopsticks awkwardly and picked up a piece of meat from the pot.
He closed his eyes and put the meat into his mouth as if ready to die.
"ah!"
Bai Chuxian spat out the meat and drank the water.
“It’s so spicy! It’s so spicy!”
Huang Biqin hurriedly poured her another glass of water.
"If you can't eat, don't force yourself!"
If Bai Mengsheng still can't see Bai Chuxian's little thoughts now, then there is something wrong with his brain.
However, seeing that his daughter was also punished for his idea, he didn't say anything.
When Wenxi heard the situation here, he just looked up and glanced without paying much attention.
In the end, Bai Mengsheng and the other two got up, paid the bill and left.
When passing by Wenxi, Bai Mengsheng said goodbye politely: "Miss Wen, enjoy your meal. We'll be leaving first."
Wen Xi still said in the face of Bai Chuxian's angry gaze: "Goodbye, Mr. Bai!"
I glanced at their table and it seemed like they hadn't started eating yet. Why did they leave?
The waiter saw that they had hardly touched the food and asked them considerately.
“Do you want to pack?”
Bai Mengsheng handed over the credit card.
"No!"
When Lin Huizi came back, she found that the people sitting at the next table had changed.
Surprised, he asked, "Did I play for a long time? How come the people at the next table have already finished eating and left?"
"It seems they left without eating."
"You're crazy! If you don't want to eat hot pot at a hot pot restaurant, what's the point of coming?"
Wenxi shook her head, she was also confused.
"Did you finish your conversation?"
"What?"
"Have you and Lin Mo agreed? Are you going to stay at his place?"
Lin Huizi nodded embarrassedly.
"He sincerely admitted his mistake, so I'll forgive him for now. He promised not to do it again. He also promised not to interfere with my work in the future."
Wenxi was happy for her friend.
"That's right. If there are problems, we need to communicate. Getting angry at each other won't solve them."
"There's one more thing. My parents keep asking me when I'm going to get married to Lin Mo. Why are they so anxious? I'm only 23, not 32."
"Everyone has their own worries. I don't have the same experience as you. I wish I had parents to push me, but unfortunately..."
Lin Huizi really wanted to bite off her tongue. Why did she mention her parents for no reason?
"Xiaoxi, I'm sorry..."
Wenxi smiled.
"Meihui, what are you doing? I'm fine now, no need to apologize. Just say what you need to say, don't worry."
"Really?"
"real!"
"So what are your plans? Are you planning on getting married now?"
"I don't dare to think about getting married for now. The Lin family is a large family second only to the Mu family. When it comes to marriage, they prioritize matching status. Not many large families are as open-minded as the Mu family and fully comply with their children's wishes.
Although I have never been to the Lin family, I vaguely feel that they should have a lot of rules, so I shouldn't think too much about it.
When I first got together with Lin Mo, I just wanted to have a relationship with him, I didn't think that far.
But my parents feel like their daughter can't get married. Every time they call, they keep talking about my marriage. If I hadn't forced them to go back last time, they would be driving me crazy now.
Wenxi also felt that his uncle and aunt were a little anxious.
