Chapter 1834: Wronged?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Li Mo, who had been pressed behind Xu Qingzhi, suddenly spoke in a low voice.

“Which thing?”

Mo Xiaona shook her head. “No, regarding that matter… there’s a misunderstanding… I can explain.”

Looking at her flustered expression, he finally had an answer to the doubts that he had been unable to confirm all these years.

It was like a final decision.

!!

“Alright, since you’re afraid of being wronged, of course you can explain. If I really wronged you, don’t worry, I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory apology.”

Xu Qingzhi said calmly.

When she was with Fanxing in the past, she always felt that Fanxing was too calm when facing certain matters.

It was as if she wasn’t the one being insulted.

Now that it was her turn, she finally understood that being angry was just a joke.

The closer one was, the happier the enemy.

That was exactly what the other party wanted to see.

Moreover, there was no need to be too agitated. It was beneath her status.

She looked more like a clown.

Most importantly, she was used to it.

After seeing so many ugly comments, it didn’t seem like there was much to feel anymore.

Just like now, she was very calm and her mind was unusually clear.

Faced with Xu Qingzhi’s calmness, Mo Xiaona panicked.

She glanced at Limo and sensed that he was staring at her. Her eyes narrowed coldly.

She hurriedly retracted her gaze and pursed her lips. “Everyone had fun back then… I forgot…”

Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips sarcastically.

“If that’s the reason, then…”

Li Mo could hear the sarcasm in her voice. He held her waist and turned her around with a frown.

“What are you talking about? Today is the winter of our graduation… Are you talking about my birthday?”

As if he had been poked by something, he took a deep breath and continued, “Speaking of which, Xu Qingzhi, why didn’t you come on my birthday the year I graduated?! Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you?!”

Xu Qingzhi’s eyes flashed. “You’re waiting for me?”

Li Mo gritted his teeth and said, “The last birthday before graduation, you actually stood me up! You attended it every time, but the last time…”

“Limo,” Xu Qingzhi said suddenly, her grip on his waist tightening.

Li Mo seemed to have sensed something and loosened his grip. His large palm rubbed against her waist as he massaged her awkwardly.

Xu Qingzhi looked up at him calmly and said, “You changed the location of the gathering at the last minute, but you didn’t tell me…”

Li Mo was stunned. After a long pause, he seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Mo Xiaona.

“You didn’t tell her?”

Mo Xiaona’s scalp turned numb and she opened her mouth. “I forgot…”

Limo was silent for a few seconds, his expression ferocious.

“You said that you’re going to rehearse the play in the activity room. You’ll tell her personally when you see her!”

Mo Xiaona’s body trembled slightly. “I really forgot…”

“I forgot that you didn’t let me call her!”

Li Mo suddenly raised his voice. His tone was so cold and terrifying that it could scare someone to death.

Mo Xiaona shrank her neck in fear as tears welled up in her eyes. “I…”

Everyone fell silent in fear.

Xu Qingzhi smiled at her.

“Everyone knows the news except me. Miss Mo, in terms of targeting and hostility, do you still feel wronged before me? You can continue to explain…”

Mo Xiaona bit her lips tightly and clenched her fists, but she couldn’t say anything.

She glanced at Li Mo, but his gaze didn’t linger on her for long.

What could she say?

Li Mo, Xu Qingzhi, and she were about to confront each other.

What she had done back then could not be undone now.

Li Mo held Xu Qingzhi’s waist with one hand and her slender arm with the other.

“So, you went to the same place that day?”

Xu Qingzhi looked at him, her gaze sliding across his face inch by inch.

“Why did you suddenly decide to change the address of the gathering?”

Li Mo pursed his lips tightly and his face darkened.

“It’s my fault.”

Xu Qingzhi asked with a burning gaze,

“Did you decide it yourself, or did someone suggest it?”

Li Mo looked as if he had done something wrong. “Someone suggested it.”

“Who are the others?”

Li Mo stared at her and said in a low voice, “You want me to snitch on her in front of her… You’re… not giving her face and not giving me face?”

“So Mo Xiaona suggested that you change places at the last minute, right?”

Li Mo pursed his lips and nodded his head.

The fingers around her waist tightened their grip.

He reminded her to save him some face.

Xu Qingzhi looked at him and smiled. When she spoke again, her voice was slow and soft.

“I did. I went to your original location, but none of you were there. I couldn’t get through to you. When I finally picked up, it was Mo Xiaona who answered. She gave me the address, but she didn’t tell me which venue you were at. I thought she would inform the service staff, but I was still rejected. I called you again, but there was no response.”

Li Mo’s hand froze on her waist.

“Do you know why I said it was the winter of the graduation year?… Because your birthday was the same as today. It was snowing heavily. I kept calling you until your phone ran out of battery. I was worried that I would miss you if I left for half an hour, so I waited for you outside the club for the entire night…”

Recalling the past, the grievance that Xu Qingzhi had suppressed in her heart spread uncontrollably. Her voice trembled and her eyes turned red.

Li Mo’s Adam’s apple bobbed and his heart couldn’t help but surge with emotions.

“Me too… I waited for you all night, afraid that you wouldn’t be able to find me if I left…”

He didn’t continue. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his embrace. He kissed her forehead. “Sorry…”

“I worked for more than two months to prepare a birthday present for you, but I didn’t give it to you. The next day, I fell seriously ill and didn’t go to school before the new year. When school reopened next year, your attitude was completely different. You didn’t give me an explanation, nor did you give me any chance to get close to you and ask you clearly…”

“I’ve thought about it a lot, but I don’t think I’ve done anything to make you unhappy before your birthday. That’s why you want to fool me…”

“I didn’t,” said Li Mo. “If it wasn’t for… the fact that I can see you… and that you’re so obedient and unwilling to go against me, I would feel better. I wouldn’t want to celebrate my birthday…”

Li Mo’s words were stiff and awkward. In front of Xu Qingzhi, he revealed his feelings for her and his hidden thoughts…

She felt really awkward.

The two of them had been at odds for so many years, but neither of them had given in to the other.

She was already used to this kind of interaction.

Speaking of which…

He didn’t feel as awkward as he did at her product launch.

However, once or twice was the same.

She had gotten used to it.

In front of her, he had long been shameless. Why was he still being pretentious now?

Xu Qingzhi grabbed the hem of his shirt. Hearing his words, she couldn’t maintain her low spirits.

Li Mo planted a few kisses on her forehead before slowly releasing her and reaching out his hand.

Xu Qingzhi was puzzled. “What?”

“Where’s my present? Where’s my birthday present?”

Xu Qingzhi paused and turned her head away. “I’m not prepared this time.”

Li Mo frowned. He didn’t look happy. He pursed his lips, and his handsome face looked aggrieved.

“Although I’m very happy that you’re here for the birthday party, I’ll be even happier if I can receive your birthday present.”

Xu Qingzhi was speechless.

Li Mo kissed her cheek ingratiatingly. “You’re definitely prepared, right? Hurry up and give me… En?” (As the author, I can’t imagine what kind of strange creature a CEO who can say ‘en’ is.)

Xu Qingzhi lowered her head slightly, but her grip on her bag tightened.

“I really didn’t this time…”

Li Mo’s eyes were sharp. Sensing her little action, he reached out and “snatched” the bag from her hand.

Then, he opened her bag on the spot and rummaged through it. Other than a car key, a lipstick, and a velvet box, there was nothing else.

In comparison, the box looked like a gift.

He took out the box and looked at Xu Qingzhi smugly. Without hesitation, he opened it.

Inside was a platinum bracelet.

It didn’t look like something a man should wear.

Li Mo paused and picked up the bracelet. He looked at Xu Qingzhi and asked, “Is this for me?”

Xu Qingzhi blushed and reached out to snatch it. “Give it to me if you don’t like it!”

Li Mo subconsciously raised his hand to prevent her from snatching the bracelet away.

“You really prepared this for me?”

“…”

Xu Qingzhi didn’t say anything, but it seemed like she agreed.

However, she still reached out to snatch it. In the end, Li Mo raised her even higher.

The two of them were obviously enemies.

Li Mo looked like a child who was teasing a girl.

Typical—

The more he liked someone, the more he wanted to tease and bully her.

At this point, everyone present knew what was going on.

“You’re accusing Mrs Li of maligning her. You’re targeting her because she’s your ex-girlfriend and you’re hostile towards her. Tsk, why don’t you take a look at what you’ve done?”

“She was already so scheming when she was in school, but she actually fooled people like this?! She made them wait in the snow for an entire night!”

“She must have something on her mind, right? She’s so daring to play with people. Isn’t she afraid of being exposed?”

“So she has long been hostile to her. Why is she so ruthless on her birthday? Since she paid so much attention to Mrs Li back then, she should know that she worked back then, right?”

These words were undisguised. Most of them were people who had just sympathized with Mo Xiaona.

The thought of being deceived made him burn with anger.

“I inexplicably want to know what birthday present she gave President Li back then. Is it because she’s afraid that it can’t compare to Mrs. Li’s gift?”

“I know,” someone suddenly said. “Just like today, I gave Limo a watch. It’s just that I didn’t put it on him personally like today.”

Everyone sneered in surprise. “What watch? With CEO Li’s status, she can’t even give away an ordinary watch, right?”

That person added, “It seems to be a famous watch. The price for those few years was tens of thousands. Back then, I was very curious. Mo Xiaona came from an ordinary family and she could afford a watch that cost tens of thousands. That’s impressive…”

Mo Xiaona’s pale face stiffened again.

“I don’t know if I’m overthinking, but there have been many thefts before Limo’s birthday…”

“Huh?!”

“Huh??”

Everyone was surprised. “Steal?”

Their gazes landed on Mo Xiaona. “Her family background is ordinary and she even gave her a luxury watch. Where did the money come from?”

That person shrugged and said, “I’m not sure. I’m just saying… Don’t think too much. What if you’re wronged?”

“Pfft…”

Wrongfully accused?

Wasn’t it because of Mo Xiaona’s accusation?

However, the truth was obvious.

It was difficult not to connect the two.

Everyone looked at Mo Xiaona with undisguised disdain.

Li Mo, who had been teasing Xu Qingzhi, turned his gaze over.

Xu Qingzhi snatched the bracelet when he wasn’t paying attention.

Li Mo didn’t say anything. Instead, he stared at the person who had just spoken and suddenly strode towards him.

“Fan Zhe?”

The man paused. “How do you know my name? Although we’re classmates, we don’t seem to have any interactions…”

Li Mo’s face darkened. “Who asked you to come?”

Fan Zhe raised an eyebrow and suddenly smiled. “It’s a secret. But I really want to ask CEO Li, are you satisfied with Mrs. Li’s outfit today?”

“Fan Zhe?”

Before Li Mo could say anything, Xu Qingzhi’s voice sounded as she walked over suspiciously.

“Yes, Student Xu, I’m glad you still remember me.”

Xu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Of course. You helped me a lot back then. I haven’t thanked you properly… Are you in Rongcheng now?”

“Yeah.”

“If you have time, I’ll treat you to a meal…”

Xu Qingzhi wanted to continue walking, but Li Mo grabbed her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

“What treat? Does she lack your meal?”

Xu Qingzhi was speechless.

Fan Zhe: “…Yes.”

Li Mo frowned. “I’ll return you double what you gave me in the past! It’s enough for you to eat for a few years.”

Fan Zhe asked, “What?”

Li Mo gave him a disdainful look.

“Feng Geng!”

“Yes, President Li!”

“Go and order a truckload of sanitary pads for Mr Fan! Remember, you have to order branded ones. Free, Sophie, ABC, super thin and long ones! That way, we can show our sincerity!”

Xu Qingzhi was speechless.

Fan Zhe was speechless.

Everyone was speechless. “…”

This… was amazing!

She actually knew so much!

Although others didn’t know why Li Mo would suddenly say this, Fan Zhe and Xu Qingzhi knew!

Xu Qingzhi’s face turned red. “Limo, what nonsense are you spouting?!”

Fan Zhe smiled awkwardly. “I think President Li is joking. Why would I need so many sanitary pads?”

Forgive him for being shy, but he couldn’t even speak properly.

She was a little impressed by Li Mo’s eloquence!

Li Mo snorted. “Nothing is certain. I wonder if a man who always has sanitary pads on him when he goes to school is a psychopath?”

“…”

Fan Zhe’s lips twitched.

“I suspect the reason why CEO Li remembers me.”

“Yes, because you’re a man with sanitary pads!”

Fan Zhe paused for a moment. “President Li, do you have to be so jealous and disregard the occasion? You’re still wearing the birthday present that your ex-girlfriend personally wore. Are you sure you want to continue being jealous?”

Li Mo’s face stiffened and he lowered his gaze. Xu Qingzhi glanced at him and then at his wrist.

His lips twitched and his heart skipped a beat.

“No wonder you don’t like my bracelet. That’s true. Men still like watches the most…”

“Who said that!”

As Li Mo spoke, he removed the watch and threw it aside without hesitation.

“How vulgar is it for a man to wear a watch? I like wearing bracelets!”
