Chapter 122: Chapter 122 How Nice It Would Be If I Were Not Her Elder Brother
Translator: Doggotranslation
I stole Chu Yuan from Dongfang Lianren?
Frowned, I had guessed what Lv Siqi really wanted to say in my heart, but I still asked with a hint of hope, “What do you mean?”
Lv Siqi’s expression instantly became a little strange, embarrassing, ashamed, and seemingly suspicious of himself, “Actually... it is just my guess, but almost everyone who knows Dongfang Lianren feels that way, and people often say behind her back that she, she is...”
I swallowed nervously, trying to not let my feelings appear on my face, and said anxiously, “she is?”
Lv Siqi seemed to be very concerned. After hesitating for a long time in silence, he finally said, “Say that she is a lesbian, and she likes Chu Yuan!”
Damn it! It knew it...
I was in a cold sweat. It seemed that there was more than just me who felt this way...
Is Dongfang Lianren really a lesbian or not? From her various behaviors, it was still difficult to judge. She said that she was not, and it didn’t look like she was lying. With her age and experience, I had enough reasons to believe her, but…
What I scared the most was that she didn’t even know if she was a lesbian or not.
Then, what about Chu Yuan? Does she know about it? I found that this was the issue I was most concerned about at the moment. If she knew that but she still accepted Dongfang Lianren... Thinking of the words of Chu Yuan last night, I almost collapsed on the ground...
She said that writing a GL novel was her dream…
In the eyes of Lv Siqi and others, even if they suspected Chu Yuan, this suspicion was cleared when I appeared. However, I knew clearly that Chu Yuan was not interested in the opposite sex, and I was not her boyfriend…
A strange thought or expectation suddenly came into my mind in the extreme fear – How nice it would be if I was not Chu Yuan’s elder brother, but her boyfriend, at least, it would prove that she was not a lesbian…
Crying in the corner...
. . .
After leaving Chu Yuan’s school, I went directly to Heng Xiang Company. After learning about the progress, I returned to Fengchang. After a busy day, I didn’t even have time to eat. Chu Yuan’s problem, Dongfang’s problem, and investment, all kinds of problems were mixed together, it made me feel that my head was about to explode.
Mo Fei was supposed to be more nervous than I was, but I always felt that she did not seem to worry about whether the money could be recovered on time. Compared with the many worries she had before she decided to invest in Guo Xiang’s Company, it was too abnormal.
“Okay, it’s a rare weekend. Let’s not talk about work.” After signing the last document, Mo Fei closed it and put it aside, while she stretched her body comfortably, she smiled at me: “Everything is going well, and there will be results next week. We have done everything that can be done, and we have done it well, so there is no need to be so nervous now, right? Haha, let’s spend a weekend in a relaxed mood, thank you for the hard work in the past few weeks.”
She was truly a manager. Look at how unconcerned and how relaxed she was... But that was more than 40 million yuan of investment, there was no way I would be able to relax. I let out an unnatural smile, “Okay then, I also need to go now.”
“Wait!” Mo Fei called out to me when I got up. I was confused and saw her looking at me reproachfully. “You have nothing to talk about when I don’t want you to talk about work?”
I was very confused, “Ms. M... Feifei? You need something from me?”
Mo Fei blushed, but could not hide the grievance in her eyes. “Chu Nan, do you think that our relationship in the past few weeks is not as good as when we first met? You never take the initiative to talk to me except for work these days. Is there something I’ve done wrong?”
I suddenly felt guilty. Indeed, since I know Mo Fei went to a hotel with someone that day, I subconsciously kept a distance from her. She, of course, did not need to explain it to me, but I admitted that I was still feeling jealous about it, but, more importantly, this gap made me clearly understand how difficult it was to treat her as a friend. I like Liusu, and Liusu also likes me, so I have to give up Mo Fei.
“No, maybe I’ve been too busy lately.”
“Is it...” Mo Fei’s expression became gloomy, and apologized, “I’m sorry, it was all my mother’s fault, we give you so much trouble...”
“There is no need to say something like this,” I said with a smile, “since we are friends, we should help each other. Maybe I will also need you to help me in the future.”
Chu Nan, you are so spineless... I smiled bitterly and thought to myself. I really wanted to scold, Wu Xueqing you bitch! All you know is to create trouble for me.
Fine, I admit it that I’m being hypocritical…
Mo Fei was overjoyed when she heard the words. She let out a sigh of relief, and stroked her chest lightly and said: “I was worried that you’ve been too tired recently, so you... hehe, you just don’t like me anymore.”
“How can I not like you?” I like you, or I should say I once liked you, so I have to keep a clear distance between the two of us again, a distance of a friend.
“Are you free tomorrow?”
“Tomorrow?”
“Yes,” Mo Fei’s eyes flashed with hope and expectation, and her smile was very sweet. “If you have time, I would like to invite you to the amusement park. You have been working so hard these days. You should relax.”
Amusement park? A date?
The scene of Mo Fei kissing my cheek after we went to the amusement park last time flashed in my mind. An inexplicable fear surged in my heart, but I still forced myself to keep a natural smile and said, “You and Liusu are thinking the same thing. Haha, thank you, but I have made an appointment with Liusu to go fishing in the suburbs tomorrow. Staying in the city all day, I really should go for a walk and breathe some fresh air.”
“A date?” I could not make out Mo Fei’s expression now. It seemed like she was teasing me, but there was a faint sadness in it.
Maybe she was not used to being rejected? I nodded. “Um, a date.”
God knows if that counts as a date. I didn’t mention that it was actually organized by Liusu cousin’s boyfriend.
Mo Fei’s coldness was a disguise that she used to protect herself, so she should have been very good at hiding her thoughts, but I didn’t understand why she never wore that mask when facing me alone. Is it really because she treats me as a friend? But if I am really her friend, she should be more open to me this time, right? However, disappointment was written all over her face, “Oh...”
Although it was a sigh of pity, I faintly felt that she was suggesting something to me... Could it be that she also wanted to go with us?
“Sorry, Feifei, let’s go to the amusement park together next time.”
Mo Fei was dazed, and he nodded slowly, “Okay...”
If Mo Fei was not too naive, then she was too scheming. In my opinion, although Mo Fei was a little dense in terms of feelings, she has always been a shrewd woman. This made me wonder whether she was pretending to be dense, just like how she pretended to be cold, so I began to fear and started to not understand this woman.
Maybe that was one of the reasons why I decided to give her up? It’s just that I didn’t want to destroy her perfect image in my heart.
Mo Fei, what is on your mind exactly?
“What about tonight?”
I was about to leave, but Mo Fei suddenly asked with a smile, ‘Are you free tonight? On the day we became friends, it was supposed to be my treat, but I was drunk. After that, I always said that I wanted to invite you again, but I never had a chance, so how about tonight. ”
Although Mo Fei tried to be as polite as possible, the way she asked clearly gave people a domineering feeling of a superior and a faint of unwillingness. But behind this domineering feeling, there were pitiful pleadings. I could see that she was afraid of being rejected again.
