Chapter 281: Chapter 281 It’s A Woman’s Privilege To Lie To You
Translator: Doggotranslation
“On the day I resigned, I promised that if I had the opportunity, I would invite everyone to have a meal, but I didn’t say that I would only invite her. Why are you getting jealous all of sudden?” I chuckled and then seriously said, “I was asking you about a serious matter. Why does the chairman want my file?”
“Then you shouldn’t ask me,” Liusu was still jealous, “You should ask Mo Fei, who knows what she is planning to do. Promotion? Humph, I think that is just an excuse. So she could get closer to...”
I smiled bitterly and shook my head. Liusu really didn’t have confidence in herself. She was clearly thinking too much.
“Nan Nan, if the chairman asked you to stay personally, would you still resign?” Liusu was really worried about this, because she knew that promotion would not attract me, but favor and vanity could crush me.
In Crouching Dragon Mountain Resort, Mo Yizhi did save my life, but he also said that I had saved Mo Fei, so I didn’t owe him anything. With his status, I didn’t think he would go back on his words, and from his standpoint, there was no reason for him to do that. In fact, even if I begged him to let me stay in Fengchang, he would not let me stay, because he knew better than anyone else that more people would be hurt if he let me stay.
“Not to mention it’s Mo Yizhi, even if Mo Fei’s father came down from heavy to beg me to stay, I would still leave,” I took out the resignation letter from my arms and waved it in front of Liusu. “Besides, it’s not like Fengchang will not be able to keep operating without me. Even if I still have value to them, they should not take away my right to leave the company.” I said with a smile.
“Really?”
“Huh?” I was a little puzzled. Why would Liusu dwell on this question? And why did she have no confidence in me? This was not like her.
Seeing me looking at her suspiciously, Liusu’s eyes flickered strange light, and she hurriedly avoided my gaze, but still repeated, “then you promise. You promise that you will resign and you will not stay in Fengchang.”
“I am a man of my words. Besides, if I really want to lie to you, you think making a promise would work? Liusu, why are you acting weird today?”
“I, how am I acting weird?” Liusu panicked like a child who had been caught doing something bad. Just like she knew that I would not lie to her, after years of knowing each other, the level of our mutual understanding was the same. So she knew that I would be able to see through her lies immediately. Therefore, when she saw my suspicious gaze, she sighed softly and said, “you can just treat it as I am jealous. I feel inferior whenever I compare myself to her. I know that I am not as attractive as her, so if you really like me, can’t you just swear to comfort me and make me happy?”
This explanation was reasonable, but I still felt that there was something strange. I knew that Liusu would get jealous easily, but she was not a girl that would act like a kid easily…
“Okay, I, Chu Nan, swear that no matter who asks me to stay, whether it’s Mo Fei or Mo Yizhi, I will definitely refuse it. If I break my promise, I will be hit by a ca-”
“That’s enough,” Liusu covered my mouth, the worry on her face slowly disappearing. “That’s enough, I believe you. There is no need to have such a scary promise.” She said softly.
At this moment, time seemed to have stopped. The feminine side of Liusu had completely conquered me.
I liked this suspicious and infatuated woman, because her feelings towards me were real and honest.
At this moment, I couldn’t help but think to myself, ‘Chu Nan, if you can’t give this woman enough sense of security, you really deserve to be punished, and you really should get hit by a car.’
I was hesitant, and Liusu clearly knew about it. Perhaps this was the only reason why she was not confident, but she never chose to give up on me. As a man, was there anything happier than enjoying this kind of tolerance? Therefore, I told myself that I must know how to cherish her.
. . .
Friendship was something that was hard to give up, and it would inevitably make one feel nostalgic. Sometimes, it would change the minds of those who decided to leave, so I did not say hello to old friends such as Yang Wei, Elder Sister Liu, and Elder Brother Gao, but went directly to Mo Fei’s office.
To my surprise, I didn’t see Song Jia outside Mo Fei’s office. I took out my resignation letter, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door of the office.
“Come in.”
The unhurried and pleasant voice was still that familiar, as if it had become a part of my life in the past year. Thinking that once I walked out of this building, I would never be able to hear the voice that made my heart throb countless times in the past, unconsciously, I felt a little bit sad.
Mo Fei rarely wore any makeup in the past, but today, she was wearing light makeup. The light eyeshadow and lip gloss made her look a little less indifferent and arrogant, but a little more tender and coquettish. The pen in her hand stopped moving. She pushed the keyboard and mouse away and took off the small black-rimmed glasses. Raising her head, she smiled at me and said, “you are finally here.”
“Do you know that I will come?” I pretended to be calm, and I believed that Mo Fei was also the same. Her unusual calmness was a way to cover her true feelings at the moment, so I instinctively wanted to cover my true feelings as well. In fact, instead of saying that it was an instinct, it was better to say that this was a habit that I had to develop in order to survive in a competitive society. It was a habit of not letting my competitors see through my mind, otherwise, I would fall into a passive situation.
I didn’t like the calm and confident look on Mo Fei’s face. It was like she knew that I would not be able to reject her. Because of her confidence, I couldn’t help but see her as an enemy.
“It’s not difficult to know that you will come to the company.” Mo Fei slid the chair back, got up, and walked around the table. She walked towards me while giving off a sense of pressure. Her eyes that were always as cold as frozen ice were now actually staring at me seductively. Her lips that seldom revealed a smile actually curled up into a slightly playful smile, “what I want to know is... will you leave.”
What I really wanted to know was why she was so confident? Did this woman overestimate her charm, or underestimate my determination? I admitted that she was a very special woman to me. If she had not deceived me, and if I had not been aware of how much Liusu meant to me, I believed that I might have been eager to wrap her tightly like her shoes, and I might even find it enjoyable to be stepped on by her... But, now, I wouldn’t.
I admitted that I still had feelings for her in my heart, but I could let it go. I believed that the scars would be smoothed by Liusu eventually. Therefore, I shook my head and chuckled lightly. “I have no reason to stay, but I have a reason to leave...”
Although I was a little reluctant to let it go, I felt that the way I responded to her was very manly. Moreover, if I gave up now, it would only leave a small but healable wound, but once my mind was not determined enough, the injury of two people would evolve into the pain of three people, which was destined to not have good results.
“Sure enough, this is your answer, but...” Mo Fei did not accept the resignation letter from me but walked past me. She went straight to the door, pulled down the blinds, and turned around with her hands on his back and her back leaning against the door. She tilted her head cutely, squinted her eyes, revealed a charming smile, “what if I insist on not letting you leave?”
With the ‘click’ of the door lock, my expression changed suddenly. Mo Fei actually locked the door. What did she want to do? ! Was she going to molest me?
This did not make any sense. I was a man, even if she wanted to molest me, she would not be able to do anything, right? Thinking of this, I calmed down a lot. The sense of security created by the physical differences between men and women helped me maintain the calm look on my face, “Ms. Mo, this is different from what you said at the beginning.”
“Lying is a woman’s privilege, is it not?” Mo Fei was still smiling, but there was resentment in her eyes, “you said you didn’t have a reason to stay, but you have a reason to leave. What’s the reason? Is it because I lied to you? In that case, do I still care about lying to you one more time?”
I was speechless. What kind of fallacy was this? !
Mo Fei’s stubbornness scared me. I couldn’t help but frown. Why was she so persistent? Did she not know that such stubbornness would not only harm herself but also harm other people as well?
I knew that I was fickle in love, or it could even be said that I was a shameless womanizer, but I understood that the necessary ruthlessness would not only save me, but it was also the most responsible response to Mo Fei’s stubbornness. Perhaps the process was the cruelest, but the result would definitely be the best.
Therefore, I put my resignation letter on her desk with a cold face, then went straight to the door, and sneered contemptuously, “what do you think I am? A bird with a simple brain structure? You think I can’t fly out after being locked in a cage?”
“You will be able to fly out, but your heart will stay, so you will eventually fly back.” Mo Fei was not afraid, blocking the doorknob behind her, and said with a blushing face, “Chu Nan, there are only two of us in this office. If I walked out with my clothes disheveled after you, what would everyone think?”
From the fact that Mo Fei could treat me, a handsome young man, as her father’s substitute, it was enough to see that Mo Fei was not a normal woman, so it was not strange that she would come up with this kind of crazy idea. I couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. I tried my best to pretend to be calm and coldly said, “I don’t want to know what everyone thinks, I just want to know what the hell do you think that you are doing!”
Since she couldn’t pursue me, she wanted to use force? She wanted everyone to know that I was taken by her.
