Chapter 84: Chapter 84: So Embarrassing! Chapter 84: Chapter 84: So Embarrassing! Amidst Qiao Ruoxinâs panic, she burrowed into the manâs suit jacket to shield her head.
So embarrassing!!!
On the other hand, Mo Chen appeared quite calm, his large hand cradling her head, a flash of irritation showing on his handsome face.
The manâs deep voice mixed with anger, âAre you now trying to treat me as an equal, not even knocking on the door?â
Assistant Liu stood there with an embarrassed expression, stammering, âPresident Mo, Iâm sorry, I⦠I didnât know Miss Qiao was inside, Iâ¦â
âNow you know? Still not leaving? Waiting for me to kick you out?â the manâs tone was filled with displeasure.
The Qiao Ruoxin hiding in his embrace couldnât help but let out a laugh.
âOh, yes, yes! Sorry, President Mo! Sorry, Miss Qiao!â
Assistant Liu backed out of the door and carefully closed it behind him.
After hearing the door close, Qiao Ruoxin peeked up and finally, he was gone.
Then, she unceremoniously slapped the manâs shoulder, âItâs all your fault! This is an office! Canât you behave less like an animal! How embarrassing!â
The man chuckled lowly, his laughter filled with indulgence as he watched her with angry little eyes and pinched her cheek.
Qiao Ruoxin slapped away his hand, got down from him, and sat on the nearby sofa.
âAre you angry?â Mo Chen glanced sideways at her pouting little mouth.
She snorted haughtily, âAssistant Liu must have something urgent for you, go deal with it.â
The phone vibrated.
The man picked up the phone to answer, âGo ahead.â
Whatever was said on the other end of the phone, Mo Chenâs expression darkened for a moment before he hung up the call.
He looked at Qiao Ruoxin beside him, âGo to the rest room, my mother is here.â
ââ¦â
Jerk!
Is she that unbearable to be seen?
Forget it, better to hide, she didnât really want to confront Mrs. Mo, especially not in this office.
Qiao Ruoxin stood and walked towards Mo Chenâs private rest room.
Sitting on the sofa, Mo Chen frowned slightly, a faint irritation shrouding his handsome face.
Then, the office door opened.
Mrs. Mo arrived in a black dress, entering the office and sitting on the couch across from him.
âMom, what brings you here?â
âYou havenât visited the estate once in fifteen days, so I had to come to you,â Mrs. Mo spoke elegantly and slowly, with a dignified grace.
Mo Chen, âWorkâs been busy.â
âEnough with the excuses. How about meeting Uncle Liâs daughter tonight? The girl is very pretty.â
A trace of annoyance appeared on the manâs handsome face as he looked up at his mother across from him and said in a deep voice, âIâve met her at the last banquet, too ugly.â
Mrs. Mo frowned, âApart from Qiao Ruoxin, who do you not find unattractive? I know sheâs your type, but sheâs too thoughtless, just like two years ago, when you were so busy, and she wanted to break upâ¦â
Frustration showed in Mo Chenâs eyes as he retorted angrily, âMom!â
âTwo years ago, my son was so promising, an AI research engineer, but ever since that car accident, you havenât stepped foot in the lab again, youâ¦â
At this point, tears welled up in Mrs. Moâs eyes.
Mo Chenâs handsome face tensed, expressionless as he stared at the documents on the coffee table, deadly silent.
He might never enter the lab again.
The car accident caused such severe headaches whenever he overexerted his brain.
Mrs. Mo stood up sharply, her voice cold, âMo Chen, you better keep her by any means necessary this time, otherwise whatâs the point of wasting this time? You donât need a marriage alliance, for the Mo Family has climbed to the peak in Asia, but you must take good care of your health because youâre an only child.â
Having said her piece, Mrs. Mo turned and left the office.
