3335 It's Business



"Alright, then I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow," Leng Xiaoyao readily agreed. She actually agreed to let Li Mochen dine with them.

With six people, a sedan wouldn't do, so Li Mochen had Mu Yuan prepare a commercial vehicle, which was delivered to them during their meal. Mu Yuan then drove his car away.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to take the five of them back later.

During the meal, Li Mochen glanced at Leng Xiaoyao once in a while, but he didn't dare to do it frequently. He simply pretended to glance over casually. Therefore, even if An Chenmeng and the others observed Leng Xiaoyao and Li Muchen at the same time, they didn't find anything wrong.

Leng Xiaoyao could feel that Li Mochenn's gaze on her today was a bit more than usual, and his breath seemed deliberately suppressed. She couldn't figure it out, but she wouldn't directly ask about it either.

After finishing their meal and coming out, Li Mochen went to exchange the car keys with Mu Yuan, then directly used the commercial vehicle to take Leng Xiaoyao and the others away.

Mu Yuan wasn't the only one who came to drive, there was also Meng Fan. They now lived near Li Mochen's long-term residence in the siheyuan and weren't brought along by him.

"Well, I think our boss is really unable to extricate himself this time," Mu Yuan said, sighing but also gloating.

"Right!" Meng Fan just responded lightly. Their boss had someone he liked, and he was relieved because they didn't want to see Li Mochen being lonely.

However, he also had worries.

He was mainly worried about Leng Xiaoyao's feelings towards Li Mochen.

He certainly hoped that they both had feelings for each other and had a good outcome, but he didn't know Leng Xiaoyao. Therefore, he couldn't help but worry that Li Mochen would be hurt.

Anyway, all of this was beyond their control. They could only think positively!

…

Leng Xiaoyao sat directly in the front passenger seat next to Li Mochen. She didn't think too much about it, but An Chenmeng teased. "Boss, do you know that the front passenger seat has always been reserved for the girlfriend or wife? Are you and Mr. Li…"

Leng Xiaoyao knew that, but she just didn't think about it that much. Upon hearing An Chenmeng's words, she felt a bit at a loss. "I simply wanted you to be more comfortable in the back. Also, Brother Mochen doesn't have a girlfriend or wife, so there's no need to be so particular."

This was a seven-seat MPV, with five people sitting in the back. Therefore, it was true that Leng Xiaoyao wanted them to be more comfortable in the back, but An Chenmeng and the others who intentionally teased Leng Xiaoyao wouldn't let go of this opportunity!

"Really? We don't think it's uncomfortable to sit with you!"

"You may not care, but what about Mr. Li?"

"If it's not a big deal, why don't we switch to someone else?"

"…"

Leng Xiaoyao looked up at the sky resignedly, and threatened. "Enough! Don't make fun of me, or I'll teach you a lesson."

"Whatever, it's not fun anyway."

"Yeah, we can't even joke around."

"I think it's not that we can't joke around, but they're just feeling guilty."

"I agree."

Leng Xiaoyao chose to remain silent. What was there to feel guilty about?

Pfft! She had nothing to feel guilty about.

Li Mochen remained silent throughout the conversation, not showing any anger. Instead, the corners of his mouth were always curved in a slight arc.

Was the co-pilot seat reserved for girlfriends or wives?

Hmm! He was hearing this for the first time, but he liked it.

From now on, whenever he drove, only Leng Xiaoyao could sit in the co-pilot seat. Even men couldn't sit there.

Li Mochen brought Leng Xiaoyao and her friends back to her house, then drove back to his house opposite.

Because Leng Xiaoyao's classmates were there, Li Mochen didn't say much to Leng Xiaoyao.

After returning to the yard, Li Mochen sat in the car for a long time without getting out. He couldn't calm down after he saw Leng Xiaoyao and had nowhere to release his feelings.

He had never dared to look at Leng Xiaoyao for too long, nor did he dare to stare at her for three seconds to see if he had the impulse to kiss her, but with her by his side, he felt good.

Usually, his mood was only calm or angry, he had never felt in a good mood.

After Leng Xiaoyao and the others returned home, all of them just wanted to lie down and play with their phones.

"Boss, is there really nothing between you and Mr. Li?" An Chenmeng asked. Although she couldn't see anything, she always felt that there was something.

"There is nothing. If there is really something, I'll tell you. Don't make fun of me in the future. It's really embarrassing," Leng Xiaoyao said. Today she was teased by them and felt very uneasy.

"Fine!"

An Chenmeng and others realized that it was inappropriate and promised not to do it again.

Leng Xiaoyao didn't care about them and went back to work in the room, but she couldn't calm down even after a long while. She always thought of Li Mochen's unusual behavior today, which made her feel strange.

The next day, everyone went out early, had breakfast first, then went to the Great Wall.

Because of Leng Xiaoyao's reminder, An Chenmeng and others didn't tease Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen today.

After a day's exhaustion, An Chenmeng and others were very tired, but Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen didn't feel much. An Chenmeng and others were very envious of them.

"I think my back will be in pain tomorrow. Let's just rest tomorrow!" Xiong Manxin suggested. After she got in the car, she collapsed and didn't want to move at all.

"I agree." Wu Minmin agreed. Her voice was weak.

"Then let's rest tomorrow!"

An Chenmeng and Tong Xiabei agreed with that.

"Well, you can rest. I happen to have something to do tomorrow," Leng Xiaoyao said, planning to go to the construction site tomorrow.

"Is it a date with Mr. Li?" An Chenmeng couldn't keep her mouth shut. She forgot about Leng Xiaoyao's reminder yesterday and teased them again.

"An Chenmeng…" Xiong Manxin remembered it, so she immediately reminded An Chenmeng.

An Chenmeng realized what she had done, but she had already said it, so she could only add embarrassingly. "Um, I'm sorry, forget what I said."

"What are you thinking in your head? I have other things to do tomorrow, real business." Leng Xiaoyao wasn't angry, just a little resigned.

"Uh-huh! Real business." An Chenmeng nodded. She wanted to emphasize the seriousness of it, but only made people feel that she didn't believe it.

Leng Xiaoyao didn't want to say anything again.

Yesterday they had roast duck, so today they went to eat some other specialties of the capital city.

Today Leng Xiaoyao offered to pay for the meal, so Li Mochen didn't rush to settle the bill.

After dinner, Li Mochen sent Leng Xiaoyao and other girls back again.

"What time are you going over tomorrow? I can give you a ride," Li Mochen said.

"Okay." Leng Xiaoyao didn't refuse because it wasn't convenient to take a taxi by herself when she went out. Generally, a person would buy a car when they lived in a big house, because there was a distance from the gate to the main building.
