Chapter 2511: Chapter 315
Momo’s heart skipped a beat for a second.
Her eyes faintly glanced at Fang Die, who had a proud and boastful expression, and she casually asked He Qinqin, "Miss He, are you going inside?"
"I’m going with my cousin to greet Young Master Ye. Miss Mo, you know him too, right? Do you want to join us?"
He Qinqin’s last word was spoken softly, with a slight change in tone.
It was because Fang Die, standing next to her, secretly pinched her when she said that.
Momo appeared not to notice their minor actions, her delicate face showing a gentle smile, "I won’t go, you go ahead."
"Miss Mo, I heard from Qinqin that you’re soon returning to work at the TV station. Could I invite you for coffee someday?"
Momo raised an eyebrow.
Fang Die smiled charmingly again, explaining, "I felt an instant connection with Miss Mo and really want to be friends."
"Sorry, I don’t like making friends with just anyone."
Momo’s indifferent refusal changed Fang Die’s expression.
But Momo didn’t care, she turned to go back to her private room.
Just as she took a step, Fang Die’s voice, carrying suppressed anger and sarcasm, asked, "Miss Mo doesn’t want to be friends with me probably because of Ah Zhan, right? I always knew Miss Mo was Ah Zhan’s ex, and you dated him, but Ah Zhan told me your dating didn’t really count, wasn’t a real relationship."
Momo turned her head, her smile faded, and her eyes carried a faint chill, like the night of this season, making people inexplicably feel cold.
Fang Die thought this hurt Momo, her smile became even more alluring and seductive, "Miss Mo doesn’t need to feel bad, Ah Zhan always appreciated your sacrifice to save him back then. Even if I marry Ah Zhan in the future, you’ll always be our friend."
"Haha!"
Momo suddenly laughed.
Laughed brightly.
"What’s Miss Mo laughing at?"
Fang Die narrowed her eyes, a hint of displeasure mixed into her smile.
Momo lowered her eyes, looking at her phone, as if pondering something.
After a moment, she lifted her head and said to Fang Die, "Since Miss Fang is with Ye Zhan and we’re meeting here, it’s kismet. I’ll join you to greet him."
Fang Die’s expression changed, "You want to greet Ah Zhan, that might not be convenient."
"Miss Fang might not know, Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion is under Haochen’s subsidiary, no matter how distinguished the guests are, it’s never inappropriate for me to greet them. Besides, I’m Ye Zhan’s lifesaver; if anything is inappropriate, he won’t mind, right?"
"Okay, then let’s go."
Fang Die bit her lip silently.
"Although my relationship with Ye Zhan isn’t stable yet, Miss Mo and he have already broken up, so you won’t do anything uncomfortable, right?"
Momo truly found Fang Die amusing.
She didn’t answer, just smiled and walked ahead.
Hearing this, He Qinqin finally understood, worriedly using her gaze to ask Fang Die if Momo meeting Ye Zhan would cause any trouble.
Fang Die’s face darkened, quickly following.
Their dining room was at the other end of the corridor. Fang Die pushed the door open, and Momo looked past her line of sight into the room.
Around the large round table were four men and a blonde middle-aged woman.
The person facing the door was a foreigner Momo had interviewed before, who had business dealings with Haochen, and the blonde woman next to him was his wife.
When Momo followed Fang Die inside, her eyes lit up, and she used her unskilled Chinese to cheerfully call out, "Miss Mo."
She immediately got up from her seat and greeted her.
Ye Zhan, who was talking to Mr. Smith, heard the call of "Miss Mo" and his eyes subtly moved, turning to look towards the door, where his deep gaze met Momo’s.
His eyes unconsciously became warm, his tall stature also standing up.
Also at the table were Ye Zhan’s secretary and another middle-aged man, seeing Mr. Smith and Ye Zhan stand up, they followed suit.
Momo smiled and hugged Mrs. Smith, greeted her, then lifted her eyes to greet Mr. Smith.
Fang Die had no time to introduce her, only able to watch helplessly as Momo stole the spotlight the moment she entered, while she was treated as invisible by everyone.
This wasn’t what angered her most.
What angered her most was Momo’s relaxed demeanor and fake smile. To her, Momo’s smile was insincere, like an alluring vixen.
"Miss Mo, I just asked Young Master Ye about you, didn’t expect to see you so soon, I’m really thrilled."
Momo’s heart shook slightly.
Feeling Ye Zhan’s gaze constantly on her.
Momo turned her gaze, smiling as she approached.
Their eyes met again, the air in the room instantly filled with a subtle tension, Ye Zhan’s eyes holding a warm smile, "Momo."
His voice was deep and clear, extraordinarily pleasant.
Especially calling her name "Momo," naturally infused with deep affection, tender enough to stir the heart.
Momo’s smiling eyes spread, her clear gaze brushing over his right arm, softly and gently asking, "Is your injury better?"
Ye Zhan kept his gaze on her, "Almost healed."
Momo’s delicate brows furrowed lightly, "So it’s not fully healed."
"Yes, not completely recovered."
Ye Zhan’s lips curved as he answered honestly.
Momo’s eyes flickered slightly away from his unveiled gaze, the corner of her eye catching Fang Die’s jealousy as she suddenly remembered the purpose of her presence.
Smiling, she said to Ye Zhan, "I met Miss Fang in the corridor, she said she was dining here with you."
Ye Zhan looked at Fang Die upon hearing this.
Meeting his gaze made Fang Die’s heart tremble.
Clearly the same man, yet his gaze when looking at Momo and now at her was as different as spring and winter.
She quickly responded with a smile, "I saw Miss Mo dining here, so I invited her over."
Ye Zhan said nothing, retracted the coldness from his eyes and looked at Momo again, instantly warm as spring.
Momo’s face showed an apologetic smile, "I didn’t know your guests were Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Although Miss Fang mentioned it might not be convenient, I thought since this is Yi Pin Xuan, I’d come to greet."
"..."
Fang Die’s smile froze.
She hadn’t expected Momo to be such a woman.
She actually exposed her on the spot.
Thinking of the things she had just said, her face grew increasingly ugly.
Ye Zhan left his seat to come to her, disregarding those present, naturally holding her hand like lovers, ignoring her body which stiffened slightly from his touch, his smile becoming even softer, his voice indulgent and low, "There’s nothing inconvenient, since you’re here, accompany me for some food, Mrs. Smith just asked about you."
