Xu Youyou pursed her lips. “No, I’m just protecting my legitimate rights and interests!”
“Yes, yes, protecting your legitimate rights and interests as Mrs. Mo,” Su Lanxu said with a laugh. She did not think there was anything wrong with Xu Youyou’s idea. Instead, she was a little gratified. It seemed like Xu Youyou was really growing up; Xu Youyou now knew how to protect herself and defend her love.
As night fell, the lights lit up one after another.
The streetlamps quietly escorted the people home.
At this time, there were a few customers in the bar. Some of them were very observant and were quick to notice Su Lanxu. They came up to her and greeted her. Their expressions were a little curious as their eyes shifted to Xu Youyou.
“This is…”
Su Lanxu replied with a smile, “This is Mrs. Mo…”
Those people’s expressions changed slightly as they exchanged a look. None of them expected Mo Shenbai’s taste to be so strange. He actually married a young girl. The young girl did not like an adult at all.
Xu Youyou was already used to the misunderstanding about her age. She said calmly, “I’m an adult. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the bar manager.”
Xu Youyou’s voice was soft, and her smile was sweet. She was like a flower blooming under the sun, causing people’s hearts to stir.
After greeting her, those people returned to their seats. From time to time, they would glance at Xu Youyou and whisper among themselves.
“Did Mrs. Mo come here to get drunk because she’s about to get a divorce?”
“Look at her behavior. Does she look like she’s about to get a divorce?”
Who could smile like a flower if they were about to get divorced? Moreover, the man was someone who stood at the top of the pyramid.
Xu Youyou seemed oblivious to the whisperings and the gazes directed at her. She picked up her phone and saw a message from Mo Shenbai asking if she was at home. Then, she sent him her location and continued eating.
The manager of Blue Temptation was worried that it would not be enough for Xu Youyou to only have fruit juice so he specially sent someone to buy a lot of delicious food back for her. The entire round table in front of her was filled with food. He was worried that if he did not serve her well, Chairman Mo would be unhappy, and in turn, his boss would teach him a lesson.
After eating for a while, Xu Youyou guessed that Mo Shenbai was about to arrive so she rose to her feet and bade farewell to Su Lanxu. Before she left, she even winked a few times at Su Lanxu and said, “I’ll leave the rest to you.”
Su Lanxu made an ‘okay’ sign, telling her not to worry and that she would definitely handle this small matter well.
As soon as Xu Youyou walked out of Blue Temptation, the few who had come over earlier immediately came to sit next to Su Lanxu with a drink in hand. After exchanging pleasantries, they went straight to the point.
“Lanxu, is your best friend really Mrs. Mo?”
Su Lanxu took a sip of her cocktail before she cocked an eyebrow and asked, “Who do you think has the audacity to impersonate Mrs. Mo?”
“Then, is she really going to get a divorce?”
Su Lanxu pretended to widen her eyes in surprise before she said, “Divorce? How’s that possible?” Then, she added with an exaggerated expression, “Back then, Chairman Mo was the one who took the initiative to pursue my best friend. He loves her to death! It’s okay to date, but initially, my best friend didn’t intend to get married. After all, he’s nine years older. Who knows how many years he would be with her… However, he pestered her for a long time, and in the end, she could not resist him. They got married as soon as she reached the legal age to do so.”
Su Lanxu sounded very convincing when she spoke.
A few of them looked at each other in disbelief.
“Isn’t it said that Chairman Mo is averse to women?”
“Is it really true?”
They did not believe Su Lanxu. After all, the person Su Lanxu described did not seem like the Mo Shenbai they knew.
“Apart from those who have erectile dysfunction or those who like men, have you ever met a man who’s not interested in women?”
The few of them fell silent. These words made a lot of sense.
Su Lanxu rolled her eyes and said, “You guys don’t believe me? Chairman Mo is going to pick her up soon. You can all go and take a look and see for yourselves…”
…
After leaving Blue Temptation, Xu Youyou stood at the side of the road and sent a message to Mo Shenbai.
“Youyou…”
Xu Youyou heard a familiar voice calling out to her.
Xu Youyou raised her gaze and saw Lin Yin walking toward her.
Lin Yin’s expression was gloomy under the light, and his eyes were filled with love and distress.
“What a coincidence.” Xu Youyou’s heart was without any ripples at this moment. There was no fluctuation in her emotions at all when faced with Lin Yin. After all, he was not the person who gave her the courage to survive back then, and he had never loved her. Although she had interfered in his relationship with Bai Qingyu, she had also tolerated Lin Zhihuan’s actions time and time again. It could be considered repayment to him; they did not owe each other anything.
Lin Yin’s voice was hoarse as he said, “I heard from my friend that you’re here so I came to look for you.”
“Why are you looking for me?” Xu Youyou asked.
Lin Yin studied Xu Youyou’s delicate face. There was no trace of sadness on her face at all. He thought that she must be acting tough in front of him. After all, how could she not be sad?
Finally, Lin Yin said, “I know everything. You don’t have to hide it from me, and you don’t have to pretend to be strong in front of me.”
Xu Youyou: “???”
“Youyou, I’ve warned you long ago. You won’t be happy with him,” Lin Yin said as he gazed at her, “What kind of man is Mo Shenbai? How could he love you for the rest of his life?”
“Did you misunderstand something?” Xu Youyou looked at Lin Yin in confusion as he spouted nonsense.
“Youyou…” Lin Yin took a deep breath as though he had made up his mind. Then, he said, “It was my fault for neglecting you in the past, and it was also my fault for abandoning you on our wedding day. In the past, I thought that I couldn’t let go of Qingyu, but after that, I realized that I had already let her go a long time ago. The person I truly love is you.”
Xu Youyou looked at Lin Yin in shock and disbelief, wondering much Lin Yin had drunk.
“Lin Yin, are you… okay here? Are you sober?” Xu Youyou asked as she pointed at her head, wondering if he was drunk or if he had eaten something he should not have eaten that caused his mind to be so muddled. Then, she said, “I’m Xu Youyou, Xu Jialu’s sister. Not Bai Qingyu.”
How could Lin Yin possibly love her when he had been holding onto Bai Qingyu for years? Now that she had left, he suddenly said he loved her. How strange.
“I’m very clear-headed now, Youyou,” Lin Yin said with a serious expression. He stared at her with burning eyes as he expressed his deep feelings to her. “Youyou, I’m the only one who truly loves you. Leave Mo Shenbai and come back to me. I promise I’ll treat you well, and I won’t let you suffer any more grievances.”
After saying that, Lin Yin seemed to be worried about something so he quickly added, “As for your relationship with him, I don’t mind and I also won’t despise you for it. I understand that a man like him is difficult for young girls to resist.”
Xu Youyou looked at Lin Yin incredulously. In the past, she thought he was very selfish, but now, she also thought he was sick in the head. Where did he find the courage to say that he would not despise her? She was so angry that her cheeks puffed out, and her eyes narrowed.
Just as Xu Youyou was about to retort, a hand reached out from the side and wrapped around her shoulders.
Xu Youyou looked up and saw a handsome face. The light that illuminated him made him look like a fallen angel.
At this time, the man used his other hand to gently caress her lower abdomen as he looked at her affectionately and asked, “Baby, didn’t you tell him that the crystalization of our love is in here?”
