Flies don't land on eggs without cracks.
Mo Xuan originally thought that Jiang Yuqing was on a pedestal, always looking high and mighty and unapproachable. But now, once he grasped Jiang Yuqing's weakness, wouldn't it be easy to bring him down from his pedestal?
Mo Xuan had thought it over carefully. No matter how hard he tried, if Jiang Yuqing didn't take him seriously, he would never be able to enter Jiang Yuqing's heart in this lifetime.
As soon as Xiao Xin turned around, she saw a sinister smile on Mo Xuan's face.
He frowned at Mo Xuan: "What do you want to do?"
Mo Xuan licked the corner of his lips, the lip stud on his tongue resembling a sharp blade, radiating a cold light.
He opened his lips and slowly uttered, "I want him to be utterly disgraced."
Xiao Xin watched as the ambition burst forth in Mo Xuan's eyes, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.
A slight smile appeared on his lips. Mo Xuan's reaction was exactly what he expected, and even exceeded his expectations.
He was right about him.
Xiao Xin knew that he couldn't possibly resist Jiang Yuqing alone, so he needed help and thus he tried to win over Mo Xuan.
Essentially, Mo Xuan and he are the same kind of people.
He understood Mo Xuan's feelings for Jiang Yuqing, and he also understood the obsession of loving someone you can't have.
Although the Mo family is not a big name in City A, Mo Xuan has been involved in that circle for many years.
He was unfamiliar with the rules of the world of fame and fortune, so having Mo Xuan as his leader was the best option.
If things had succeeded, Jiang Yuqing probably never imagined that the pawn he used against Xiao Xin would turn against him and become the blade that pierced his heart.
"So? Are you considering cooperating with me?" Mo Xuan interrupted him when he saw him staring at him in a daze.
Xiao Xin walked up to him, slowly curled the corners of her lips, and extended a hand to him: "Pleasure doing business with you."
Mo Xuan stood up from the sofa and shook his hand in return, "It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
＊
Although he had reached a consensus with Mo Xuan, Xiao Xin still remembered his original purpose.
He wants to send Jiang Yuqing to hell.
Xiao Xin also had a mountain of debt to pay off, but he didn't plan to borrow money from Mo Xuan.
He can earn it himself; he just needs Mo Xuan to lend him a hand.
Two days later, Xiao Xin composed herself and officially got back into work mode.
Mo Xuan is usually very busy, traveling between various companies to discuss cooperation, and attending meetings large and small all the time.
Xiao Xin didn't bother him; she just quietly and dutifully did her own thing.
Jiang Yuqing hasn't bothered him these past two days; I wonder what underhanded tricks she's up to.
Xiao Xin changed his father's hospital to Mo's private hospital.
Since he started talking to Mo Xuan, he has let down his guard. Mo Xuan has been generous in helping him, so he accepts it without hesitation.
Anyway, Mo Xuan only valued his earning ability, and Xiao Xin still wanted to praise his foresight.
He was also confident that he could repay the kindness Mo Xuan had shown him.
During lunch break, just as Xiao Xin was about to leave work, she received a call from Yu Muqing.
He answered quickly.
"Hello, Mr. Yu?"
Yu Muqing cut to the chase: "I heard you work at Mo's. Now that it's after get off work, would it be convenient for us to meet?"
Xiao Xin replied, "Convenient."
Yu Muqing gave the address of the nearest restaurant to the company.
Xiao Xin arrived at the private room in the restaurant that Yu Muqing had designated ten minutes later.
As soon as the waiter opened the door, Xiao Xin looked up and saw Fu Yan sitting in his seat.
Fu Yan was also looking at him.
Xiao Xin stopped at the doorway, somewhat dazed.
Taking a step forward is not an option, nor is taking a step back.
Yu Muqing sensed the awkward atmosphere between the two and spoke up to ease the tension.
He pointed to the seat opposite him and said to Xiao Xin, "Xiao Xin, you sit across from me."
Seeing that Mu Qing had spoken, Xiao Xin had no reason to refuse.
After nodding to Mu Qing, Xiao Xin walked straight to the spot opposite Mu Qing.
As he sat in his seat, he felt a gaze fixed intently on him.
Xiao Xin felt itchy all over and was somewhat uncomfortable, so he deliberately avoided that gaze.
It was a bit warm inside, so Xiao Xin took off her coat and hung it on the back of the chair before sitting down.
The dishes were served in no time.
After the waiter finished serving the dishes, he left the door slightly ajar for the three of them.
This private room has no windows, and with the door closed, it feels a bit stuffy.
Xiao Xin looked at the dishes on the table, glancing at Fu Yan on her right, and her breathing became a little labored.
Yu Muqing noticed the slight unease on Xiao Xin's face, and then looked at Fu Yan beside her, who was staring at Xiao Xin with eyes that seemed to want to devour her whole. She immediately understood what was going on.
He tapped the plate in front of Fu Yan with his chopsticks. "What are you looking at? Eat your food."
Since Fu Yan lost his memory, Yu Muqing's temper has grown, and he has lost his previous gentleness towards Fu Yan.
Fu Yan snapped out of his daze, glanced at Yu Muqing, and then picked up the chopsticks in front of him.
He picked up a plate of braised pork ribs, and just as Yu Muqing was about to scold him for not being able to eat spicy food, she saw Fu Yan put the ribs into Xiao Xin's bowl.
Fu Yan looked at Xiao Xin's profile and said softly, "You like spicy food, so I ordered it especially for you. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Xiao Xin paused, her hand holding the chopsticks still. She looked up at him blankly for a moment, then quickly shifted her gaze back to the ribs in her bowl and said softly, "Thank you."
Fu Yan smiled gently and put another spicy shrimp into Xiao Xin's bowl.
Yu Muqing, standing to the side, was almost speechless at the sight of the two strangers yet exuding a certain ambiguity.
"..."
Fu Yan's face, which was usually as cold as minus eight degrees Celsius, was now blooming like a flower in spring.
He was afraid others wouldn't know what he was thinking.
Is this a peacock spreading its tail feathers, or an iron tree blooming?
Yu Muqing could hardly believe her eyes.
Fu Yan turned his head and saw Yu Muqing's stunned gaze.
He mimicked Yu Muqing's earlier gesture and patted the table in front of her: "What are you looking at? Eat your food."
He just spoke softly, without the arrogance of Yu Muqing.
Yu Muqing scoffed, "Look at you, so worthless."
Fu Yan didn't argue with him, but smiled and shook her head, then lowered her head to eat her own food.
He was aware of his injury, so he only ate some light food, which thankfully suited his taste.
The private room suddenly fell silent. Xiao Xin seemed to suddenly remember something and looked up to ask Yu Muqing, "President Yu, what brings you here?"
Yu Muqing continued picking up food with her chopsticks, glanced at him, and then said, "Xiao Xin, don't be so polite with me now, just call me Brother Qing. Let's not talk about business at the dinner table, let's eat first."
Xiao Xin nodded. "Okay."
Yu Muqing smiled at him, her eyes ambiguous.
Fu Yan caught a glimpse of his flirtatious eyes and waved her hand in front of his face, saying, "Don't get any ideas about him."
Yu Muqing impatiently pried his hand away, "I don't think my sister-in-law is suitable?"
Fu Yan withdrew his hand. "That's more like it."
Xiao Xin, biting her chopsticks, said, "President Yu, him and I..."
Yu Muqing interrupted him: "I know, you dumped this kid."
Xiao Xin: "..."
Fu Yan: "..."
Yu Muqing felt their gazes directed at her, looked up and glanced at them: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
