Novel Bin Chapter 94 - Mean
Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Mean
Why does Wu Xueqing have my mobile phone number?
“Did I interrupt you? I’m sorry, I found your phone from Feifei’s phone book.” Wu Xueqing was a little afraid of me. It felt like she was very nervous.
I was relieved, but still confused, “Can I help you with something?”
Wu Xueqing said: “No, I just want to ask you, is Feifei in the company?”
“Huh?” I frowned and asked, “Isn’t she at home?”
“No,” hearing what I said, a faint of concern immediately appeared in her tone. “After you left yesterday, I went back to her villa in the Rose Garden Community. She called me last night and said that there was something she needed to deal with in the company, so she would be home late. But she still hasn’t come back. I have been trying to call her cell phone since last night but her phone is always off. Chu Nan, is, is she really not in the company?”
Mo Fei didn’t go home last night? I was taken aback, and then asked in a serious tone, “were you arguing with her again?”
“No!” Wu Xueqing hurriedly denied, and then grieved: “I know that I have caused trouble to you, so I dare not to argue with her. After being criticized by her for a long time, I said nothing…”
“Is it…” although I felt strange in my heart, after the gangster showed up in her flat, coupled with the fact that I got something on her, it was indeed unlikely that she would dare to argue with Mo Fei. But then, why did Mo Fei suddenly go missing?
Wu Xueqing was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked with a tentative tone, “She wasn’t with you… *cough*, last night, she didn’t go out for dinner with you last night?”
I couldn’t help but be dazed, “she went out for dinner with someone last night?”
“No, no,” Wu Xueqing’s panic made my heart suddenly sink. I didn’t like what I just heard, “I don’t know, I thought she would invite you to dinner together, hehe…”
Listening to Wu Xueqing’s dry laugh, I felt the muscles on my face twitched, and my heart seemed to be clenched by a fist. Mo Fei went out to meet someone, and she didn’t go home last night, and Wu Xueqing suspected that the person was me…
“Don’t worry, Auntie, it’s fine. She called the secretary in the morning and said that she would come to the company in the late afternoon. When I see her, I will ask her to call you back.”
When I hung up the phone, my hand was still shaking slightly. It was really unreasonable. The extremely anxious and irritated feeling made me want to open the window and yell, where did Mo Fei go last night?
I came straight to Mo Fei’s office as soon as I came out of the toilet. When I was about to find Song Jia, she happened to come to the general operation team to find me.
“Chu Nan, you came back just at the right time. Ms. Mo wants to see you.”
I was dazed, “Ms. Mo is back?”
“Uh Huh, just came back,” Song Jia noticed that my expression was different, so she asked curiously: “What’s wrong?”
“Oh, it’s nothing,” I quickly suppressed the complex thoughts in my mind and asked while pretending to be casual and walking toward the office: “why did Ms. Mo just come to the company? Is there something wrong at home?”
“At home? It doesn’t look like it, she didn’t seem to go home yesterday.”
“How do you know?”
Song Jia loved gossip the most and she smiled ambiguously and said: “When Ms. Mo called me in the morning, she was still in the Shangri-La Hotel.”
What was Mo Fei doing in the hotel? For some reason, there was a twisting pain in my heart, and strangely, I still asked the same question, “how do you know?”
“She told me. She also said that her phone ran out of battery, so if there was anything urgent, I could call the hotel and connect to her room. Hehe, Chu Nan, what do you think? Could it be that Ms. Mo rented a room in the hotel with a man?”
Song Jia’s joke was not funny at all, I flicked her forehead, “Don’t talk nonsense, Ms. Mo is not that kind of person.”
Mo Fei is a woman. Even if she went out to have dinner with someone, did she really have any other reasons not to go home but rent a room in a hotel? I wish I had the same sense of humor as Song Jia, but what I thought was exactly the same as hers…
“It’s not nonsense. When I was off work yesterday, I heard that she called a man to make an appointment for dinner,” Song Jia pouted her lips, and her expression contained a faint of pity, “Ms. Mo is a woman after all, and she is still a twenty-five-year-old single woman. It would only be strange if she doesn’t want a man. It’s just that I don’t know which guy is so lucky.”
“She made an appointment with a man?”
Thinking of Mo Fei’s usual coldness and aloofness, Song Jia was not surprised to see my surprised expression. Even she herself was also very surprised. “When she answered the phone, I just went in to send documents, although I did not clearly hear what the person said on the phone, I could tell that it was a man’s voice, then Ms. Mo told him to meet at a dumpling restaurant. If it was about business, why would she meet with the person in a dumpling restaurant? What is the name of the dumpling restaurant again?…Yes, Zhuoya, Zhuoya dumpling restaurant.”
Zhuoya Dumpling restaurant? The small restaurant with only 30 to 40 square meters that Mo Fei and I have been to? The last bit of fantasy in my heart also disappeared. As Song Jia said, the person she met definitely wasn’t a business partner…
I wanted to laugh with a smile, but my lips were very stiff. I didn’t feel very well. Actually, that feeling… It felt terrible… Although I believed that Mo Fei was not the type of woman that would seek casual relationships, Song Jia’s word was like a steel thorn piercing into my heart.
“Chu Nan, you are here, sit.”
Mo Fei was in a good mood. Even in front of Song Jia, she still showed me a generous smile. Such a smile was rarely seen by Song Jia.
Song Jia smiled secretly at me with her back to Mo Fei and shrugged her shoulders. It was like she was saying: Look, the woman who has been moistened by love is really not the same as usual, right?
I felt even more awkward in my heart. I gave Song Jia a fierce glare, blaming her for keeping feeding me this kind of thought and then sat down.
Actually, I also couldn’t help myself but think that way. Especially when I saw that Mo Fei was wearing the same suit as yesterday, I really wanted to ask her where she went, who did she meet and what she did yesterday! But I understood that I was in no position to ask those questions. Mo Fei was not my wife. Why did she need to tell me those things?
After Song Jia went out, I said to Mo Fei, “Ms. Mo…”
“Cough!” Mo Fei coughed heavily, and then took off the flat glasses from her pretty nose, staring at me with her beautiful eyes.
Her gaze stunned me.
Of course, I knew that she was dissatisfied that I called her Ms. Mo. But unlike her dissatisfied look before, now, her watery eyes rippled with anger, dissatisfaction, grievance, sadness… It was too complicated to understand.
In the past, they were just mistakes, but today I was not willing to call her intimately. I understood that this was not fair to Mo Fei. It was me being selfish and mean, but she also overreacted to it. When Song Jia was here, she smiled so sweetly. Why did her face change so dramatically as soon as Song Jia left? Did it mean that the smile she had earlier wasn’t for me?
“… Feifei…”
“Chu Nan, I don’t want to hear the same mistake again in the future,” Mo Fei interrupted me coldly, and then kept a straight face, said lightly: “Song Jia said that you were looking for me in the morning, what’s the matter?”
I don’t like Mo Fei’s attitude. Generally speaking, she should be angry when other people call her by such an affectionate name, right? Who am I to her? Or who does she think that I am to her? Why does she want me to call her so affectionately? In an instant, a fit of anger surged up in my mind, and it couldn’t be suppressed.
Mo Fei, you are so cunning, and you are so vicious!
Clearly, you don’t want to give me a chance, but why do you want to give me hope? Knowing clearly that I have already made up my mind to start a relationship with Liusu, but why do you want to destroy it? To make me feel guilty? Or make me understand how shameless I am? I admit that I am fickle, and I don’t deserve Liusu’s love, but if you despise a man like me, why do you want to tease me?
Maybe I felt inferior, maybe I felt guilty, but I didn’t know when, the dissatisfaction had already blown up my body like a balloon, and it was about to explode, but I still tried to suppress it, and endure it. Because I don’t think I will be foolish enough to question Mo Fei.
After all, I am a greedy toad, and it is a mistake to expect love from a swan, I am in no position to question her.
It was actually very easy if I don’t want to be teased, mocked and played, all I needed was to admit that she was too good for me.
