Back in the bedroom, before Ling Mo even had a chance to shake off her high heels, she made a video call to Song Xingwan:
"Wanwan, I've confessed my feelings to Third Master Qin."
"I knew you liked him a long time ago, but you wouldn't admit it a few days ago. Tell me, what was his reaction?"
"He seemed a little nervous, but he eventually agreed."
Ling Mo recalled the scene when Qin Beiming invited her to "team up" with him, and unconsciously curled the corners of her lips.
"That's wonderful. It's been a long time since I've seen you smile so brightly. It seems you've really taken a liking to Third Master Qin." Song Xingwan looked at Ling Mo's sweet and charming smile on her phone screen, and her eyes silently reddened.
For so many years, she and Ling Mo have been in a situation of being suppressed.
I thought I would never be able to turn my life around.
Unexpectedly, the turning point she had been longing for finally came to the aid of these two unfortunate brothers.
Today, she is a fashion designer for DC Group.
Ling Mo is even more impressive; he not only made a lot of money but also achieved great success in many fields.
What delighted her even more was that Ling Mo, who had been utterly devastated by the pain of losing his own flesh and blood and by his closest and dearest loved ones, had finally found salvation in his life.
"There's something else I don't quite understand. When he brought me back, I was surprised to find him secretly asking netizens for help online, saying something about what to do when your girlfriend has an extremely strong sex drive," Ling Mo said lazily, leaning back on the bed.
"puff..."
Song Xingwan couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Mo Mo, did you molest him? Look how scared he is."
Ling Mo shook his head repeatedly and hurriedly explained, "I only kissed him, it shouldn't be considered indecent assault, right? If he didn't want to, I wouldn't be able to get close to him at all."
"Then... could there be something wrong with his health? Like, perhaps some kind of erectile dysfunction..."
"It shouldn't be that bad."
Ling Mo carefully recalled many details and felt that he was more like he was enduring something than actually having some kind of functional impairment.
"If there are no major health problems, everything else is fine. Perhaps, Third Master Qin has always been this kind of person who is simple and detached from worldly desires."
"I've also heard Xiaobai mention that Third Master has always been so detached from worldly desires. But the problem is, a few days ago I saw him drinking alone at a bar with a hot girl sitting on his lap."
Ling Mo found it hard to understand why Lu Ruoyu insisted on rubbing against his lap when the sofa was so comfortable.
Besides, having your thigh pressed down on must not be very comfortable. I really don't know what Qin Beiming was thinking at that time.
"I never thought our Mo Mo would get jealous. If Third Master Qin knew you cared so much about her, he would be so happy." Song Xingwan could tell at a glance that Ling Mo was jealous, and she had a gentle smile on her face.
"You mean, I'm jealous?"
Song Xingwan nodded and answered firmly:
"You, who can remain calm even if the sky falls, how could you hold a grudge over such a small matter for so long? It seems that you care too much about Master Qin and accidentally witnessed his interaction with other women, which unknowingly triggered your jealousy."
"I never thought I'd get jealous; it's a bit unbelievable."
Ling Mo thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be true.
In fact, Qin Beiming had already explained it to her twice, but she chose to ignore his explanations.
Perhaps, he really was only trying to drive her away because his condition was worsening...
“Oh, right, there’s something I forgot to tell you. The chairman of DC Group flew back to Linjiang from M Continent today. He wants me to come to the company early tomorrow, saying he wants to discuss career planning with me in detail. I’m a little scared, could you come with me?” Song Xingwan seemed anxious, all her apprehension and unease written on her face.
"no problem."
Ling Mo readily agreed.
"Will this affect your classes? I heard you mention a few days ago that your homeroom teacher was quite critical of your frequent absences."
"It's alright, I'll help him with a few more problems another day and coax him a bit."
Hearing Ling Mo say that, Song Xingwan finally felt relieved. "Then let's meet at the DC Group entrance at 8:30 tomorrow morning."
"good."
After Ling Mo ended the video call, Te Te went online to search for information about the chairman of DC Group.
Since it concerned Song Xingwan, she dared not be negligent.
There's a fear that this notoriously mysterious chairman of the DC Group might have some ulterior motive towards Song Xingwan.
However, judging from the information gathered online, Zhan Hanjue, the chairman of DC Group, seems to be a man who is not interested in women.
He is 42 years old and still unmarried, with no children...
Ling Mo glanced at Zhan Hanjue's information on his phone screen and thought to himself, "I couldn't find any scandalous rumors about him anywhere on the internet, so he probably isn't a lustful person."
Only then could she relax and get a good night's sleep.
...
The next morning, as soon as Ling Mo stepped out of his house, he saw Qin Beiming leaning lazily against the car, quietly waiting outside the iron gate of the Ling residence.
"Third Master, what brings you here?"
She tied her hair in a ponytail and jogged toward him.
Her unadorned face radiated youthful vitality, and the shallow dimples on her cheeks deepened as her smile suddenly blossomed, making her look adorable and charming.
"I'll take you to school."
Qin Beiming gentlemanly opened the car door for her.
