"Sorry, I didn't know you were waiting for my reply..."
Qin Beiming was surprised that Ling Mo stayed up all night waiting for his reply.
Hearing her say that, he felt like strangling himself.
"No need to apologize, but please don't come looking for me again."
"Give me a chance to change my ways? Mo Mo, I didn't mean to ignore you; it's just because of my own health condition..."
Before Qin Beiming could finish speaking, Ling Mo impatiently interrupted him:
"Didn't you say that, to avoid Lu Ruoyu misunderstanding our relationship, I shouldn't come looking for you anymore?"
"I have nothing to do with her."
"It's okay that she's sitting on your lap?"
Ling Mo became more and more excited as he spoke, only realizing his tone was strange as soon as he finished.
Frustrated, she shook him off and walked quickly forward.
Seeing that she was angry, Qin Beiming didn't dare to tell her the truth: he hadn't pushed Lu Ruoyu away in time just to make her leave.
To avoid adding fuel to the fire, he stayed right behind her, making a solemn promise:
"It was my fault. Such an accident will never happen again."
"Can you please stop following me? I want to live a quiet life and don't want to have anything to do with you." Ling Mo, who had finally managed to open her heart, was hurt by his cold attitude over the past few days and was unwilling to repeat the same mistake.
“A few days ago, I thought about letting go and letting you live a quiet life. But I just couldn’t control my heart. When I close my eyes, all I can think about is you, and when I open my eyes, all I can think about is you. If you are willing to give me, someone who may suddenly die at any time, a chance, I will definitely spend the rest of my life making up for what I owe you.”
"What's the meaning?"
Ling Mo pondered his words, "I don't know when I might suddenly die," and a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in his heart.
Just as Qin Beiming was about to explain, Meihu, who was speeding up in a red supercar, suddenly blocked their way. "Boss, the evening dress that Miss Song designed for you has been delivered. She wants you to go there when you have time to see if there are any modifications needed."
"I'll go now."
Ling Mo glanced back at Qin Beiming indifferently and casually asked, "By the way, what were you about to say?"
"It's nothing, you can go ahead."
Qin Beiming wasn't used to talking about how he was about to die.
With the fox spirit also present, he had no choice but to swallow the explanation that was about to slip out.
"good."
Ling Mo was still angry, and seeing that he stammered and didn't say anything more, she simply didn't ask and got into Mei Hu's car.
Behind her, Qin Beiming, clutching a life-sized pink plush toy, stared blankly in the direction the car had driven away, a stark contrast that lasted for most of the day.
He carefully considered what Ling Mo had just said and realized how hurtful his actions had been.
Thinking of how she had stayed up all night waiting for his reply, and how he hadn't responded when she confessed her feelings to him in the game, he felt so guilty that he wanted to slap himself.
In matters of the heart, Ling Mo is inherently sensitive and vulnerable.
He, on the other hand, without saying a word, broke her heart completely.
Under these circumstances, it would be strange if she paid him any attention.
"Boss, are you going to the engagement banquet of the young master of the Liang family in Linjiang and the second young lady of the Shijian Group? The Liang family just sent over an invitation."
Chen Guo arrived, panting, and was somewhat surprised to see Qin Beiming carrying an oversized pink plush toy. Unable to contain her curiosity, she excitedly exclaimed:
"Boss, could this plush toy be a gift from Miss Ling? It's so cute, and it looks just like you."
"..."
Qin Beiming glanced at Chen Guo abruptly and casually tossed the plush toy into his arms.
"Wasn't it a gift from Miss Ling...?"
Chen Guo scratched his head, carefully hugged the plush toy to his chest, and dared not say another word.
After following Qin Beiming for quite a while, he mustered up his courage and asked:
"Boss, are you going to the engagement banquet of the young master of the Liang family? The Liang family is arranging the tables, and they specifically asked me to ask."
"I'm not going."
"Okay, I'll go tell them right away."
Chen Guo nodded heavily, muttering to himself:
"It's best not to go. If the young master of the Liang family finds out that Boss is the one who cut off his manhood, he might just kick you out on the spot in a fit of anger."
Qin Beiming didn't hear what Chen Guo was muttering; his mind was preoccupied with how to win Ling Mo back.
After Chen Guo finished making the call, Qin Beiming realized that as the eldest daughter of the Shijian Group, Ling Mo would naturally attend Ling Tian's engagement banquet.
Thinking that Ling Mo would also be going, Qin Beiming suddenly changed his mind and said in a deep voice:
"Give me the invitation, I'll go."
"Oh? But I just called the Liang family and told them not to reserve a seat for you."
Chen Guo's eyelids twitched violently, and he tentatively asked, "Should I make another call and tell the Liang family that you've changed your mind again?"
"never mind."
Qin Beiming's lips twitched violently as he suddenly realized that his assistant's high efficiency wasn't necessarily a good thing.
Fortunately, the hotel hosting Liang Feifan and Ling Tian's engagement banquet happened to be the Emperor Hotel.
Even though the invitation was invalid and the Liang family didn't arrange a table or seat for him, he could still freely enter and leave the hotel.
...
The following evening, at the Imperial Hotel.
To prepare for Liang Feifan and Ling Tian's engagement banquet, and also to bring good luck to Liang Feifan who had just recovered from a serious illness, the Liang family went to great lengths, inviting almost every well-known figure in Linjiang City.
