Now, so many people are looking here as if they are watching a show. If you don't drink the glass of wine in front of you, you will tell everyone present that Mo Yurou is indeed at odds with Jiang Moyao, and this
The grudge is deep-rooted.
But if she drinks it, firstly, Mo Yurou will feel aggrieved because she really doesn't like Jiang Moyao. Secondly, her body won't allow it. She hasn't touched alcohol for a year since the car accident.
It seemed that Jiang Moyao was betting that Mo Yurou couldn't drink, and deliberately made Mo Yurou unable to come to the stage.
Mo Yurou sat there quietly, and she was also thinking about how to resolve such an embarrassing situation.
"Miss Mo, why don't you drink? Does Miss Mo still have prejudice against me?"
Jiang Moyao looked at Mo Yurou with a kind face and a calm tone, as if he was chatting with a friend he had known for many years.
Mo Yurou had to admire this woman's acting skills. She hated her to the core at first, but now she could drink with her so elegantly and calmly. As expected, she still underestimated this woman's skills.
But acting! After all, she was influenced by her stepmother. Although she couldn't learn the essence of it, she still had 80% to 90% skill.
No, Mo Yurou also had a slight smile on her face, but instead of raising her glass, she raised her head and glanced at Jiang Moyao, then lowered her head slightly, showing a guilty expression, and replied.
"Ms. Jiang, I'm sorry, the doctor told me not to drink alcohol."
I thought this would be the end of it. After all, there were so many outsiders present, so Jiang Moyao wouldn't cause too much trouble.
But Mo Yurou still underestimated Jiang Moyao's hatred for her. Jiang Moyao picked up the red wine again, poured himself a glass, and handed it to Mo Yurou again.
"Miss Mo, this glass of wine is a tribute to our past grievances. I hope that they can be wiped out in the future. Since Miss Mo is not in good health, I will do it and you can do whatever you want."
After saying that, Jiang Moyao drank it all in one gulp.
This time, Mo Yurou's face was a little gloomy. Jiang Moyao's aggressiveness also annoyed her a little. What made her even more angry was that as the host of this dinner, could Xiao Zichen just let this woman do whatever she wanted?
To hold on to her on such an occasion would not only be a loss of face to the other guests present, but also a loss of face to Mr. Hodder.
No, Mo Yurou directly turned her finger on Xiao Zichen, but just when Mo Yurou was about to speak, Xiao Zichen spoke first.
"Director Jiang, you drank too much."
His seemingly calm tone revealed a hint of anger.
Immediately, Xiao Zichen stood up, picked up the red wine in front of Mo Yurou, and then said to Mr. Hodder and other guests present.
"I'm sorry, everyone. Director Jiang drank too much and made everyone laugh. I drank this glass of wine for Miss Mo."
After saying that, Xiao Zichen drank it all in one gulp, and then pulled Jiang Moyao back to his seat.
Jiang Moyao seemed to want to speak, but Xiao Zichen glanced at her, and Jiang Moyao felt calmer.
Afterwards, there was an awkward atmosphere in the private room. Although they seemed to be chatting and laughing, those people looked at Mo Yurou and Jiang Moyao with amusement in their eyes. Fortunately, the dinner ended not long after.
"Mr. Hodder, wait a moment."
When Mo Yurou and Mr. Hodder were about to leave, Xiao Zichen stopped them.
"Mr. Xiao, is there anything else?"
Hod spoke.
"This is the cooperation plan drawn up by Dora Jewelry. I wonder if Mr. Hodder can take the time to read it."
Huo De looked at the time and saw that it was still early, so he nodded. Then, Xiao Zichen took Mo Yurou and Huo De to a small box next to them.
As for Jiang Moyao, Xiao Zichen was probably afraid that something would happen to her, so he asked the driver to take her back first.
"Wait a minute, I'll take a call."
When he was about to enter the box, Huo De's cell phone rang, and he asked Mo Yurou and Xiao Zichen to go inside first.
"I apologize to you on behalf of Momo for what happened just now."
After entering the box, Xiao Zichen said.
Mo Yurou smiled faintly, but felt a little sad in her heart. Why did he need to apologize for that woman's matter? The more she saw Xiao Zichen's love for Jiang Moyao, the more ironic Mo Yurou felt.
"Mr. Xiao, I have let go of the past. Please go back and tell Miss Jiang that she will not do such childish behavior in the future."
Mo Yurou's tone was not very kind.
Xiao Zichen nodded, then sat down opposite Mo Yurou, and the box fell into an eerie silence.
Mo Yurou took out her phone and flipped through it boredly. Xiao Zichen looked here and there. Maybe he couldn't stand the atmosphere, so he finally spoke to break the silence.
"How are you doing in England?"
Mo Yurou thought she had heard wrong, but when she looked up and saw Xiao Zichen looking at her, she knew it was not an illusion.
However, Xiao Zichen like this gave Mo Yurou a misunderstanding. When did this man learn to care about others, and this time the person was still the one who used to speak harshly to her whenever they met.
"Very good, thank you for your concern."
Mo Yurou replied awkwardly but politely. To be honest, she felt uncomfortable saying this.
"you……"
"I haven't had time to wish you a happy wedding!"
The two spoke in unison, but Mo Yurou's words drowned out Xiao Zichen's voice.
"Happy wedding?"
Xiao Zichen didn't react and asked instead.
Mo Yurou thought Xiao Zichen was showing off, and was about to speak when the box door opened.
"Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry for the long wait."
Hodder came in from outside.
"It's okay, please sit down."
Xiao Zichen retracted his doubts and nodded to Huo De.
After that, Xiao Zichen and Huo De talked about cooperation. Mo Yurou was a little bored, so she took out her drawing book to pass the time.
At about nine o'clock, the matter was finally finished, and Xiao Zichen was about to get up and leave, but at this time the box door was knocked again.
"Please come in."
Afterwards, the door was pushed open, and a blond man with blue eyes stood at the door, followed by Hodder's assistant Mike. The leading man held a box of cakes in his hand.
"Yu...oh! Yurou, long time no see! Happy birthday!"
The man spoke in unfamiliar Chinese, then walked towards Mo Yurou enthusiastically and gave her a big hug.
"Mixiu, long time no see! Thank you, but I told you I don't like birthdays."
Mo Yurou's eyes dimmed, and she was not happy because of Mi Xiu's arrival.
When Xiao Zichen saw the birthday cake, he remembered what day it was. He felt a little rude, but he felt that Mo Yurou didn't need his blessing, so he stood up and said.
"I won't interrupt you all to reminisce about old times. I'll leave first. Mr. Mo, I'm sorry. I didn't know your birthday in advance and didn't prepare anything."
After saying that, Xiao Zichen was ready to leave.
Mo Yurou had no intention of keeping her, she had been married for a year, and her birthday was on Christmas Eve, so she didn't remember it.
Even if she didn't remember it before, she handed him the divorce agreement a year ago tonight. After all, she was not the one he cared about.
"Mr. Xiao, if you don't mind, stay and have some cake. I would like to introduce you to Mi Xiu, my eldest apprentice and the chief operating officer of Fansite."
Hodder spoke at this time.
Xiao Zichen hesitated for a moment and glanced at Mo Yurou, but Mo Yurou kept her head lowered.
"Mr. Xiao, is that right? I've been looking up at you for a long time. Please sit down."
Mi Xiu immediately remembered Xiao Zichen's identity and walked over to say hello. Now, Xiao Zichen was too embarrassed to refuse.
Michu opened the cake, lit the candles, and then looked at Mo Yurou.
"Make a wish!"
In fact, Mo Yurou didn't want to think about her birthday at all, but seeing how enthusiastic Mi Xiu was, even after flying for more than ten hours and not even taking a break, she couldn't help but refuse.
Put your hands together, close your eyes, make a wish, open your eyes, blow out the candles, and make it all at once.
"The gift I give you is unique in the world."
Mi Xiu handed a beautifully wrapped gift to Mo Yurou. Mo Yurou opened it and found a Patek Philippe watch. However, judging from the style, it should be an exclusive design. Thinking that Mi Xiu and Patek Philippe have always cooperated, she knew that this was indeed a watch.
It's unique.
"Thank you, Michu."
"My gift will be for you tomorrow."
Hodder said from the side.
"Thank you, teacher."
"Quick, cut the cake."
Mi Xiu on the side urged.
Mo Yurou cut five pieces of cake and handed one to Xiao Zichen.
"Happy birthday."
When taking the cake, Xiao Zichen whispered something, but Mo Yurou didn't give any response.
"It's getting late, Yurou, I'll ask the driver to take you back!"
After a simple birthday party, Huo De looked at the time and said that they were all staying at the Grand Hotel, and only Mo Yurou needed to go back.
"I'll take Miss Mo back!"
At this time, Xiao Zichen opened his mouth.
"No need, it's not convenient."
Mo Yurou refused directly. Yuting Bay and Huating Mingyuan were in two directions of the Haoting Hotel, which was indeed not convenient.
"It's okay, I'll go back to Xiao's house today."
Xiao Zichen said again.
Mo Yurou still wanted to refuse, but Huo De patted her shoulder, then looked at Xiao Zichen and said.
"Then I'll trouble Mr. Xiao."
With that said, he was about to push Mo Yurou's wheelchair out of the box. Xiao Zichen saw this and walked over.
"I'll do it. Mr. Hodder, please stay."
"Then we won't send you off. Goodbye."
After that, Huo De, Mi Xiu and the others went upstairs directly, and Xiao Zichen pushed Mo Yurou into the elevator going down.
As soon as she entered the elevator, Mo Yurou spoke.
"Actually, Mr. Xiao doesn't need to. Mr. Hodder appreciates the design style of Dora jewelry very much. Your company has always been Mr. Hodder's most valued cooperation partner."
Mo Yurou always regarded all of Xiao Zichen's abnormal behavior as a sign of his desire to promote this cooperation.
"you misunderstood."
Xiao Zichen only said these few words without much explanation.
After leaving the hotel, Xiao Zichen first let Mo Yurou get into the car, and then put the wheelchair into the trunk.
It took about twenty minutes to drive from the hotel to Huating Garden. After getting in the car, Mo Yurou turned her back to Xiao Zichen. This gesture made it obvious that she didn't want to talk.
Along the way, Xiao Zichen was quiet and focused on driving.
