Chapter 151 Absence Sharpens Love

After Xiao Nanye finished speaking, Su Mo heaved a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Nanye, will I disturb you if I do this?" Su Mo asked hesitantly as she thought that he had said on the phone that he was resting.

"No." Xiao Nanye got up and walked to the window. He looked at the street outside the hotel and imagined her upset expression. The corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.

"Do you have something to say to me?" He asked.

Su Mo thought that he really knew her.

After leaving the aggrieved Jiang Shengze behind, Su Mo held her phone and did not say anything. She walked into her office, closed the door, pulled up the blinds, and sat down in front of her desk.

After she sat down, she bit her lips and asked in a low voice, "When, when will you come back? You are not at home. Little Hong and Aunt Liu have been talking about you all the time."

Xiao Nanye thought to himself, "Little Hong and Aunt Liu?"

"How she could think of it?"

A muffled laughter came from the other side, and a man's pleasant voice sounded, "Do you miss me?"

After interacting with Young Master Xiao for a long time, Su Mo felt her face also become thicker. Now, she was no longer shy. She nodded and said, "Alright, I miss you."

Su Mo was so honest that it made Xiao Nanye's heart itch. Right now, he was eager for the day to quickly light up, and then he could quickly handle all the work.

He wished he could immediately fly back and hold his girl in his arms, ruthlessly taking her in his arms.

"Momo, I want you!"

Originally, she was deeply lovesick, but his words changed her feelings. She thought to herself, "Just miss me. What do you mean by wanting me?"

Su Mo blushed and spat, "Xiao Nanye, do you still have any shame?"

Xiao Nanye smiled arrogantly. "Compared to face, of course, 'I want you' is more important."

He even deliberately emphasized the two words, causing Su Mo to blush. She could not help but curse in her heart, "Xiao Nanye, you are a pervert with a head full of horny waste material!"

"Are you shy?" Xiao Nanye asked, immediately understanding what was going on since she didn't speak.

"I'm going to be busy. Let's not talk about it for now." Of course, Su Mo could not admit that she was shy. She casually said that she had to work and hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Xiao Nanye felt that the smile on his lips froze.

He thought to himself, "This woman called me in the middle of the night, stirring up my desires. Not only was she not responsible for putting out the burning desires, she even dared to hang up on me!"

"Damn it!" Xiao Nanye lowered his head and looked at his “energetic brother”. There was a helpless embarrassment on his face, and he could only take a shower with his mind full of evil thoughts.

Thinking of the woman far away from A City, he gritted his teeth. "Woman, watch how I deal with you when I get back."

After talking to Xiao Nanye on the phone, Su Mo also became abnormal. She was in a trance all day and felt that today's time passed very slowly.

When it was almost time to get off work, Lin Xiaojuan knocked on the door and came in. She said that the department had a dinner party and everyone was going. She hoped that Su Mo could go with them.

If it were in the past, Su Mo would definitely not be willing to go. She liked quiet by nature and was most impatient to eat and drink with a group of people. She always felt that it was so noisy that it made her ears hurt.

However, she didn't want to go back today. She didn't like a home without Xiao Nanye. She always felt that it was too cold and cheerless.

Thus, she said to Lin Xiaojuan, "Then, wait for me. I'll pack up and go with you."

After Su Mo packed up her things, she called Yu Garden and told Aunt Liu that she would not go back for dinner since she would join the company's colleagues to have a meal today, lest Aunt Liu should wait all the time.

When Aunt Liu heard that Su Mo was not going home for dinner, she was particularly nervous. She kept telling Su Mo on the phone not to eat food outside randomly.

After leaving the company, everyone split up.

There were more than a dozen people in their department. Those who had cars drove, while those who didn't either freeloaded or took a taxi. Anyway, they were all gathering at the destination.

The address of the dinner party was a buffet hall of a four-star hotel. This restaurant seemed to have a good reputation.

Lin Xiaojuan left with Su Mo. She was lucky to sit in the boss's car, a low-key and luxurious black Bentley. She was so excited that she shouted all the way and even posted selfies to show off.

[I've finally become high-brow, hahahaha...]

Just as she sent it out, a message followed, [You won the lottery?]

Lin Xiaojuan replied in confusion, [Why can't I be kept as a mistress?]

That person replied to her, [To keep you? Who has such a heavy taste!]

Thus, Lin Xiaojuan cried and sent the following words, [Go away! Our friendship is over!]

When they arrived at the buffet hall, everyone greeted each other and immediately started eating.

There were all kinds of delicious food here that made one's eyes blur.

Seeing that everyone was eating happily, Lin Xiaojuan pulled Su Mo over and handed her a plate. "Su Mo, what do you like to eat? Do you like this one?"

Lin Xiaojuan carried a plate of salmon. Su Mo shook her head and said, "I don't eat Japanese food."

Someone beside her was waiting for sushi and just heard these words.

She had always been at odds with Lin Xiaojuan in the company. When she heard Su Mo's rejection, she couldn't help but sneer, "Some people just like to flatter, but unfortunately, they don't appreciate it at all!"

Her voice was too loud. After she finished speaking, she deliberately picked up a plate of sashimi and said, "If Miss Su doesn't eat it, you can give it to me! I love eating sashimi the most."

This person spoke deliberately and very loudly. Everyone else heard her words and could not help but laugh.

Her words were so direct that Lin Xiaojuan was so embarrassed that her face turned red. She did not know where to put her hands. She only explained in a low voice, "I didn't."

Su Mo also felt embarrassed, but after seeing Lin Xiaojuan's red eyes, she calmed down.

"It's better to eat less sashimi. If you eat too much, there will be parasites in your head." Su Mo put down the salmon in Lin Xiaojuan's hand and changed a plate of vegetable salad. "Eat this! This is delicious and nutritious."

When the female colleague who was eating sashimi heard the words "parasites", her expression changed. Although she held back and did not vomit, she could not swallow the sashimi in her mouth no matter what.

Su Mo looked at her coldly. "Moreover, now that the year of horse has passed, you should kiss a sheep's ass if you want to flatter. Miss, if you don't know common sense, you can ask google. Why do you need to point it out to make everyone laugh?"

These people were clearly laughing at Lin Xiaojuan just now, but when Su Mo said these words, it was as if they were laughing at her.

The female colleague was so angry that her face turned green. However, Su Mo was someone she could not afford to offend. She glared fiercely at Lin Xiaojuan and could only endure this.

Just as Su Mo mentioned "a sheep's ass", Lin Xiaojuan couldn't help but laugh. Seeing how Su Mo pissed that cunning woman away, Lin Xiaojuan immediately felt adored and gave her a thumbs-up gesture.

"Su Mo, you are so awesome. When I was in the company, I couldn't win her every time. Thank you!"

Su Mo smiled calmly and said, "I should be the one thanking you! After all, you are the only one in the company who is willing to be my friend."

The others were either fawning over Su Mo or mocking her with cold words. They were all envious, and none of them was like Lin Xiaojuan who made Su Mo feel at ease and say whatever she wanted.

In fact, from the moment Su Mo came to this company, everyone had an inexplicable hostility toward her. At that time, only Lin Xiaojuan was willing to get close to her.

After that, Lin Xiaojuan did not try to curry favor or distance herself from Su Mo just because Su Mo was dating Xiao Nanye.

Of course, ever since the announcement that Su Mo was the spokesperson for M Jewelry, many people in the company had come to get close to Su Mo. No matter what their purposes were, she slowly was accepted by them.

Lin Xiaojuan was a standard foodie. With delicious food, she quickly forgot about the unpleasantness just now. She pulled Su Mo and began to sweep the dishes crazily.

Both of them carried a lot of food, and in the end, the plates almost couldn't be put down on the table.

Before eating, Lin Xiaojuan was busy taking photos to post on her social media.

Su Mo found it interesting. She copied Lin Xiaojuan and took out her phone to take pictures. She also borrowed her beer to take a beautiful selfie. On the side, it was written that beer and fried chicken were really a perfect match.

Soon, there were comments on her WeChat friend circle. The first one was from Jiang Shengze. [Sister-in-law, you are so unkind! You actually didn't invite me when there was something delicious to eat.]

Following closely was Han Ziyi's. [An instant like. No explanations.]

Then, it was Lu Shaoqi's. She had a drooling expression on her face. [Little Jasmine, you don't love me anymore. You didn't even bring me along for a big meal. I am really heartbroken.]

Behind Lu Shaoqi's comment, there was a message from Jiang Shengze. [Be good. If she doesn't take you, I will take you. As long as you agree to be my girlfriend, I will take you to have a big meal every day.]

Lu Shaoqi replied with two words, [Get lost!]

Jiang Shengze replied, [... It can't be! Does my current charm not work?]

The last comment was from Qiao Mingyuan. He didn't comment on Su Mo's post but on Lu Shaoqi's comment. [Miss Lu, if you have time tonight, let's have dinner together?]

Lu Shaoqi replied very quickly with a shy expression and one word, [Sure!]

[What?] Jiang Shengze sent a distraught emoji, [Beauty Qiao, you're not nice! You dare to poach my people? Do the two of you think I'm dead?]

No one paid any attention to him. Only Han Ziyi comforted him. [Good boy, you can play dead now.]

After Su Mo finished reading these comments, she laughed so hard that she couldn't stand straight.

"Where are you?" Xiao Nanye quickly called her.

"In the department gathering," Su Mo said honestly.

"Don't you know what your alcohol tolerance is? How dare you drink! Do you want to be locked in the little dark room again?" Xiao Nanye asked unhappily.

"No, I didn't drink," Su Mo quickly explained.

At the thought of her drunken behavior, Xiao Nanye was very worried. He could only repeatedly emphasize, "Go back home after dinner. Don't drink. Do you hear me?"

"Do I need you to tell me that?" Su Mo shrugged to show that she already knew.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Nanye was still worried, so he called Ken to remind him to send Su Mo back early.

However, after eating, these people insisted on going to karaoke.

Su Mo originally didn't want to go. She didn't drink or sing, thinking to herself, "Won't that kind of place be boring to death?"

However, she could not resist Lin Xiaojuan's pleading. "Su Mo, you'd better go! If you don't go, won't it be boring for me to go alone?"
