Chapter 129: Rivals in Love
Since that day, Xu Mo has not appeared in front of Lin Xiran, and she naturally moved back to the hotel to continue the investigation of Ling's internal affairs, but did not sneak back to the company to check the previous files, but chose to wait for the news found by the private detective.
On this day, Xu Mo unexpectedly received a call from Ling Hao, and the two made an appointment to meet in the café of the Emgrand Hotel, as promised, and looked at Ling Hao with a tired and anxious face on the opposite side, and from time to time his eyes swept over An Xiaomei next to him.
He didn't understand the purpose of the other party's appointment with him, and he wanted to use An Dong's means that they wouldn't find anything at this time, and they wouldn't come to him for help.
"Mr. Xu, I'm taking the liberty to disturb you."
An Xiaomei smiled and got up to say hello, and then made a gesture of invitation to the opposite position.
At this moment, Xu Mo finally understood in his heart, it seemed that their husband and wife had come to ask him for help with something, but it was unknown whether he could help with this favor, glancing at Ling Hao on the other side and slowly sat down.
"Miss An is polite, everyone is an acquaintance, let's get straight to the point, I don't know what the two of you are looking for me to do?"
Seeing the subtlety between the two, Xu Mo directly threw out the question, wanting to further confirm Miss An's position, and I had heard that she had been instigating Lin Xiran to participate in the Ling family, but I didn't know if it was true or false.
It's just that I heard that after her several provocations, Lin Xiran suddenly became suspicious of the Ling family's affairs, so she began to meddle in one or two, but ended up being driven out of the Ling family by An Dong.
It's also strange to say, he can't understand An Dong's jealousy of Lin Xiran, and he can't make any waves if he thinks about a small planning director, so they are serious.
"Uh, this thing..."
An Xiaomei obviously didn't expect Xu Mo to be so direct, and she lowered her eyes a little embarrassed and thought about how to speak, in her opinion, Director Lin was the director of the Ling family, and she wanted the other party to help, and she lacked a saying that she had to help.
I don't want her to think clearly, Ling Hao, who was tired next to her, answered, "Have you seen Xiran recently?" ”
Originally, Xu Mo's directness had already surprised An Xiaomei, and she didn't want even Ling Hao to be like this, An Xiaomei's eyes wandered on the two and began to question their relationship, although she had heard that the two had already known each other.
But Director Lin and Mr. Xu Mo are not in a working relationship, how to listen to Ling Hao's words, there is a sense that Director Lin was abducted by the other party.
can't help but think of the rumors I heard at the Ling family's front desk before, could it be that the two of them really have a relationship history?
Thinking about it carefully, it was only after seeing that he and Director Lin were so intimate that day that Ling Hao took her to the bar to drink, so that after hearing her drunken words, he began to investigate the internal problems of the Ling family, so it seems that Director Lin is really not simple with this Xu Mo.
"What does Mr. Ling mean by this? Have you ever considered Miss An beside you? ”
Listening to the words Xiran coming out of Ling Hao's mouth, Xu Mo's eyes were cold, and then he glanced at An Xiaomei, who was full of doubts, and said, in his opinion, this Miss An didn't care about their previous relationship.
But the reason why Ling Hao dared to be so unscrupulous must have some support from this Miss An behind her, so it seems that if she either loves Ling Hao deeply, she hates the Ling family to the core.
When it came to An Xiaomei, Ling Hao was guilty between his eyebrows, but at this moment, he was more worried about Lin Xiran's safety.
His eyes quickly glanced at An Xiaomei next to him and said, "This matter has nothing to do with her, where is she Xiran, are you hiding her?" ”
"Why does Mr. Ling think that I hid her?"
Xu Mo asked Ling Hao with a deep look in his eyes, and then said mockingly: "Even if I hide her, it doesn't matter if one of us is unmarried and the other is unmarried. ”
In disguise, he swore that they were more suitable, and Ling Hao in front of him had already been kicked out, and now he couldn't control everything about Lin Xiran.
Ling Hao, who had already been disturbed by worry, of course wouldn't care about these at the moment, at this moment, he only wanted to confirm that Lin Xiran was safe with Xu Mo, at least she didn't fall into the hands of An Dong.
casually took out a piece of information and put it on the table and said: "A few days ago, someone watched you leave from the tea room with a woman who looked like a bustle, and this new property you bought, Xu Mo told me if she was bustling?" ”
Glancing at the information in front of him, Xu Mo had already guessed the approximate situation, glanced at An Xiaomei and said, "Mr. Ling likes to investigate my private life so much, this is not good, there is no comment on this." ”
Although this incident did not cause him a loss, Xu Mo was still a little unhappy to be investigated so inexplicably, just because although he did not deliberately do this at that time, he was still very secretive.
Now that being placed in front of the table like this, he began to wonder how many people could find out about this, since Ling Hao had found out, how much did the Ke couple know about this matter, and whether Ke Yunrou would go directly to disturb her.
Thinking of this, he got up directly, and An Xiaomei's anxious voice came from behind him.
"Mr. Xu, please understand that this matter is related to Director Lin's safety, we are too worried to be..."
"Investigate me? Miss An really loves Ling so much, and she even helps explain this kind of thing. ”
Xu Mo suddenly turned around and said, in his opinion, An Xiaomei in front of him was really enough to let Ling Hao go so far, and defend him for this kind of thing about his predecessor.
"I..., please ask Mr. Xu to see Director Lin to help tell me not to come back yet."
Being poked directly at the center, An Xiaomei was embarrassed and couldn't explain it, but she still took a few steps forward and whispered to Xu Mo begging Xu Mo to help convey it.
Looking at An Xiaomei with an embarrassed face and not forgetting to beg him for help, Xu Mo couldn't help but soften, how good it would be for him if Xiran was willing to do this, thinking that this was just an extravagant hope.
His face changed, and he said in a cold tone: "I am not as generous as Miss An at this point, and I can't help my rival in love to spread the word." ”
Although he also knew that Lin Xiran was not suitable for him to appear at this time, but even so, he still couldn't help Ling Hao pass the word, in his opinion, Lin Xiran had already belonged to him Xu Mo from that day.
Therefore, her moodiness does not need other men to participate, of course, what he cares about the most is that this person is Ling Hao.
drove out of the hotel and went straight to the community, entering the password and twisting the handle to see the mess left by that day, only then did Xu Mo understand that she had not returned here at all after that day.
Helplessly sat on the sofa and stared coldly at the wallet on the floor, thinking back to the stubbornness in her eyes that day, rubbing her stinging sideburns and still couldn't understand why she insisted on drawing a line with him.
and the person she said prevented her from getting close to him, he repeatedly checked for so long and didn't find any party with such logic, and what he couldn't understand the most was how they could provoke such a person when they were still high school students.
The cigarettes burned out one after another, Xu Mo just held it to his fingertips and watched lightly, letting it burn out and fall in the trash.
Lin Xiran, who had been busy in the hotel restaurant all day, finally couldn't help but protest and walked out of the room at eight o'clock in the evening.
"Miss Lin?"
Suddenly, a smiling face appeared in front of him, Lin Xiran smiled and looked at Nick in casual clothes in front of him, only to find that the other party's legs were so long and straight, this is not the legendary long legs.
Hesitantly, he retracted his gaze and beckoned, "Let's have a bite to eat?" ”
Lin Xiran, who was originally staring at the menu and worried that she wouldn't be able to finish eating, found a good excuse to check many dishes at once, and it would be good to have one more person to eat, so she finally didn't have to choose.
"Beauty, please eat, of course, it is better to be respectful, than to obey your fate."
Nick smiled and sat down, wanting to say that he had this intention, and after not seeing this Director Lin for a few days, he was still a little worried, and now this hanging heart can finally be put down.
After the two exchanged pleasantries for a few minutes, Nick looked at a large table full of dishes and was stunned for a few seconds, where is this to eat something, it is clearly the sea to eat, but then again, it is the first time he has seen such a girl who can eat.
Of course, she is definitely the only one who can eat so much and still eats in front of him, but can she really eat so much?
"Let's eat it, this and this are all specialties of our restaurant."
Looking at the dishes with full color and flavor, Lin Xiran recommended a few favorite dishes, you must know that she liked these dishes once before, but it is a pity that it would be better if Linda was at this time.
With that snack with her, she can eat openly, but guarding Nick at the moment is different, and it is not difficult to see from his eyes that he can't accept her eating.
But think about it, most girls can skip meals for the sake of their figures, but she is an exception, not to mention that she can take care of these things after a busy day, and how to work overtime at night if she doesn't eat enough at the moment.
Ignoring Nick's bowed head and eating, Nick, who had taken a small bite, followed her movements as if he was infected by her, and half an hour later, the entire table of dishes was eaten by the two of them.
After being full of wine and food, Nick proposed to take a walk downstairs in the hotel together after eating too much, of course Lin Xiran wouldn't mind, so the two of them appeared in the crowd coming from the parking lot, one left and one right, talking and laughing.
Xu Mo, who had just returned to the hotel, also happened to see this scene, and walked into the service desk after watching it with a gloomy face for a few seconds.
When Nick came back from a walk, he said that he wanted a gentleman to send Lin Xiran back to the room in person, and the two of them staged a farewell in the elevator without leaving and saying goodbye again, and in the end, Lin Xiran still couldn't resist Nick's insistence.
The two of them just walked in the corridor jokingly, rock-paper-scissors this game Lin Xiran lost again, she chose to walk backwards with her face like a flower, and Nick repeatedly joked that her words didn't count, and she was telling the truth.
I saw her turn her back and take two steps, and suddenly her feet slipped and instinctively grabbed forward.
Nick quickly reached over her waist to prevent her from slipping, and in her panic, she tugged at someone's shirt tightly with both hands, and the two of them looked at each other closely.
At this moment, even the air was a lot quieter, and each other seemed to be still for a second and motionless to maintain the movements just now, and there was a crisp click behind them, and then several guests walked out of the room and glanced at the two curiously.
Lin Xiran hurriedly withdrew his hands and smiled awkwardly: "Thank you for sending me, I've arrived!" ”
Opened the door and quickly hid into the room, leaning against the door panel and covering her hot cheeks, she was really embarrassed, how could she be so careless.
