Chapter 2000: TryBo Cixue could not help but laugh. “Brother Tang Mo, the truth is that you’re not a good man either. So many girls have been hurt by you.”
Tang Mo raised his eyebrows, looking extremely proud. “That’s my charm.”
Luo Zhou coughed and exposed Tang Mo’s embarrassing incident mercilessly. “When Mo’er was of age, he fell in love with a girl and that girl also left her contact details. They contacted each other for half a month and on the day of the girl’s coming-of-age ceremony, she invited Mo’er. This fellow came back and was happy the entire night.”
“However, the next morning, he saw a message on his phone.”
Tang Mo glared at Luo Zhou. “Continue if you don’t want to die.”
Luo Zhou said, “The girl sent a message saying, Young Master Tang, can you call the Crown Prince over?”
Bo Cixue understood and smiled. “So it turns out that the girl liked the Crown Prince. Brother Tang Mo, now that this has happened, I admire you for being friends with the Crown Prince!”
Tang Mo huffed angrily. “Bros over hoes. How could I fall out with my brother because of a woman?”
Luo Zhou said, “You can only blame yourself for being less charming than Jie.”
Tang Mo placed his cards on the table and chased after Luo Zhou.
The others could not help but laugh.
Even the usually serious and cold Ye Jie could not help but smile.
Bo Cixue looked at him from the corner of her eye.
After he became the Crown Prince, he had been under a lot of pressure and she rarely saw him so relaxed and happy.
She took out the phone Ah Zuo had sent her and secretly took a photo.
The moment they were done, his dark eyes looked over at her.
Bo Cixue hurriedly put her phone into her pocket. She stood up and said to Tang Mo and Luo Zhou, who were playing, “I’ll go help out in the kitchen. You can call someone else to play with you!”
Bo Cixue entered the kitchen.
The person who was cooking was an auntie. Bo Cixue walked in and said with a smile, “I’ll help you wash the vegetables!”
The auntie was cutting vegetables and when she saw Bo Cixue, she shook her head. “Miss Bo, no need. Go out and play with them!”
The auntie insisted on not letting Bo Cixue help, so she had no choice but to leave the kitchen.
In the living room, Tang Mo and Luo Zhou were playing cards with Ye Jie. Bo Cixue was not familiar with the others and went to the balcony alone.
Opening WeChat, there were already countless messages in her best friend group.
Tang Wu and her friend were about to start an entertainment agency and had already signed with two students from art schools.
Nan Xun, the female devil in the workplace, also met a man who pursued her, but she did not like him.
Tang Wu even mentioned Lan Yue. She said that she could not be able to find that boy after returning to the country.
Bo Cixue thought of Chu Li. Looking at Chu Li, she did not seem to care about Lan Yue.
Tang Wu sent another message: Do you think something happened to her after she was dumped by Chu Li and I kissed him forcefully?
Bo Cixue: You can go to the hospital to visit Lan Nuo. You might meet him.
Tang Wu: Sisters, why did you guys suddenly appear today? He went to the hospital and hired someone to take care of Lan Nuo. I asked around and that person doesn’t know where he went. That brat seems to have disappeared.”
Bo Cixue: I had a fight with Chu Li this morning and was punished. But she was made to run 20 laps. I’m resting.
Tang Wu: It’s good to have someone to back you up. Say, the Crown Prince is so good to you. Did he fall for you?
Bo Cixue: In the past, he was very nice to me even though he didn’t have any feelings for me.
Tang Wu: That’s true. This is really sweet torture.
Bo Cixue: I’ll show you the photos I took secretly.
Tang Wu: Send it over quickly. Nan Xun is probably still in a meeting. Let me have a look.
Bo Cixue sent the photo she had taken secretly.
Tang Wu: F*ck, who is this? He looks so good when he smiles. I’m going crazy!
Bo Cixue: Who do you think it is?
Tang Wu: Oh my god, it’s the Crown Prince?
Tang Wu: Oh my god, I’ve never seen him smile before. He actually looks so good when he smiles. His teeth are so white and neat! I’m melting.
Bo Cixue: Hold it in.
Tang Wu: He’s so good-looking. It’s like he wants to capture your heart.
Bo Cixue: In my next lifetime.
Tang Wu: Waa, I just want to ship you two for the rest of my life.
Bo Cixue: You might as well ship me with Chief Cheng.
After Bo Cixue’s hair was done, she seemed to have noticed that something was wrong and a refreshing breath sprayed from the back of her neck.
Bo Cixue turned back and was shocked when she saw the man who was standing behind her with his head lowered and looking at her phone.
“You…” Seeing that he was looking at her phone, she hurriedly put her phone back into her jacket and lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him guiltily.
After all, he had seen her secretly taking his photo earlier. Now, she was even posting his photo in the group for her best friends to admire.
“It’s so cold on the balcony. I’m going in.”
She moved to the side, wanting to leave.
But he moved a little and continued to stand in front of her.
He supported himself on the railing on both sides of her body with his long arms and she was instantly wrapped between his chest and the railing.
Bo Cixue blushed and raised her hand to hit him.
However, before she could touch his shoulders, he grabbed her hand.
“You like to bite people and now you like to hit people?” He looked at her with his dark eyes.
Bo Cixue struggled but could not break free. She raised her leg and kicked him.
He was faster than her and pinned her lifted leg down.
The atmosphere became strange.
Bo Cixue looked at the man close to her and her breathing slowly tightened.
Their gazes were intertwined and everything around them seemed to fade into the background.
Her heart started to beat faster. She was afraid that he would see something and did not dare to look away, so she could only look into his eyes.
It was as if a century had passed when she heard him say,
“Cixue, let’s give it a try after the military training.”
Bo Cixue widened her eyes.
Was there something wrong with her hearing?
“What… did you say?”
His Adam’s apple bobbed and he was about to say something when Tang Mo’s voice trailed over. “Where are you? Are you still playing cards?”
Bo Cixue pushed him away.
When Ye Jie turned back, he could not see her anymore.
Tang Mo found Ye Jie on the balcony. Seeing his dark expression, especially when he came over with eyes as sharp as knives, he touched his nose in confusion. “Boss, did I offend you again?”
Ye Jie said, “Get away from me.”
Tang Mo was speechless. How had he offended him? Hadn’t he just won a few more rounds of mahjong?
…
In the afternoon.
The auntie made a table full of dishes.
Wherever there were men, there would be cigarettes and alcohol.
Bo Cixue was about to return to the cafeteria for dinner, but Tang Mo and Luo Zhou stopped her.
Ye Jie also asked her to stay and eat with them. His expression was as cold and dark as ever, as if he was not the one who had said those words.
Bo Cixue thought that her heart was calm, but his words made her heart flutter again.
Damn it, she was too spineless.
However, she was the only one who knew clearly that she had repeatedly said that she had no feelings for him and would not like him anymore. However, that was all self-hypnosis. She had liked him for eighteen years, so how could she remove him from her heart so easily?
Not wanting anyone to see that something was wrong, Bo Cixue stayed for dinner.
After drinking two glasses with Tang Mo and the rest, Ye Jie looked at her, his eyes slightly dark. “Drink less.”
Tang Mo and the rest jeered. “Who are you to care about Sister Cixue and not let her drink? Fine, help her drink then.”
Bo Cixue was about to refuse when she saw him pour wine for himself and said softly, “Okay.”
When the man started drinking, there was no end to it. Since they were all reputable people, it was really lively when they started chatting.
Tang Mo, Luo Zhou, and the rest took the chance to make Ye Jie drink more. Ye Jie also let go and drank to his heart’s content.
After dinner, the men were a little drunk.
Tang Mo still had plans in the afternoon, so he got up to leave with Luo Zhou and the others.
Ye Jie leaned against the sofa and nodded at them.
Bo Cixue had only drunk two glasses and was still sober. Seeing that Ye Jie was in no state to send guests off since he had drunk too much, she sent Tang Mo and the rest downstairs alone.
After they left, Bo Cixue stood downstairs.
She was conflicted about whether she should go up again.
Her mind was still in a mess.
Ye Jie’s words of ‘let’s try after the military training’ kept repeating in her mind.
He had rejected her for so many years. Did she have to respond to him the moment he did something?
Bo Cixue took out her phone and called Ah Zuo.
After Ah Zuo answered, she said to him, “His Highness drank too much. Come and take care of him.”
“I’m going to settle some important work now and I’m afraid I can’t take care of His Highness. Miss Bo, I’m sorry to trouble you.”
Without waiting for Bo Cixue to say anything, Ah Zuo hung up.
…
Bo Cixue went upstairs and the man who had drunk too much was still leaning against the sofa.
He was not like other drunks. He lay quietly, his eyes closed, his eyelashes long and thick. His thin lips under his tall nose were more beautiful than usual, and his fair skin was slightly flushed.
The dining room had not been tidied up and Bo Cixue found a bottle of honey from the kitchen cabinet, made a cup of honey water and brought it to the sofa.
“Brother Xiaojie,” she called him.
The man slowly opened his eyes, his drunk black eyes landing on her as he hummed hoarsely.
Bo Cixue handed him the honey water. “I’ll clean up the table. You can lie down on the bed after drinking it.”
Without waiting for him to say anything, Bo Cixue walked toward the dining room quickly.
She did not know why, but she felt like she was going to have a heart attack from being stared at by him like that.
Bo Cixue arrived at the dining room and was about to pack up when her phone rang.
Someone had requested to add her as a friend.
One was Luo Zhou, and the other was Cheng Yan.
Both of them had written their names in the notes.
Bo Cixue accepted their requests.
She had just accepted Cheng Yan’s request when she received a voice message.
“I heard from Auntie Yan that you’ve been having military training recently. You should be taking good care of yourself.”
Bo Cixue was about to reply politely when she felt something tighten around her waist.
A refreshing breath with a faint smell of alcohol gushed from behind her.
Bo Cixue’s heart skipped a beat.
