Chapter 416: Am I Spoiling You Too Much (1)
Looking at the small sixty square meters room, Qiao Mo felt a bit lost.The apartment she rented wasn’t big, just one bedroom and one living room, plus a storage room, which she cleared out to use as a studio.
She checked the time; it was close to six o’clock.
Qiao Mo cooked some noodles for herself and stopped overthinking.
Her gaze fell upon the small house on the coffee table, softening a bit.
The wooden little house was still the same as before, covered with tape, looking worn but having a unique charm.
Gently pressing the switch, a warm glow emanated, and scenes of the past unfolded one after another in front of her eyes.
Among all things related to Fu Nancheng, she only took this one.
She originally didn’t want to take it, but at the thought of possibly having no further connection with him after his engagement, she couldn’t help but want to keep a memento.
...
For three days, Qiao Mo had been at ease.
However, on Fu Nancheng’s side, it was like a stormy turbulence. Everyone in the villa and the company was tense, afraid even to breathe too loudly.
"What are you doing, three days, and yet you can’t find a single woman’s whereabouts!"
He spoke coldly from behind his desk, his voice chillingly intimidating.
Fifteen lowered his head: "We’ve checked and found no hotel or rental information for Miss Qiao, nor any phone card registered under her name. We’re currently tracking the surveillance near her neighborhood."
The ashtray on the desk was already filled to the brim with cigarette butts. Fu Nancheng’s expression was very grim, his gaze particularly ominous.
Ha, it seems this woman is determined not to let him find her!
"Go investigate Xie Qinghuan." Fu Nancheng ordered coldly.
"Yes."
After Fifteen turned and left, Fu Nancheng lit another cigarette, squinting slightly, his gaze carrying a hint of danger.
He wanted to see exactly where she could hide!
These few days, Qiao Mo had been enjoying her rare peace, though she wasn’t quite used to the new apartment.
Whenever she couldn’t sleep, she’d work instead, busy as a spinning top.
Qiao Mo knew full well that without money, life in this society was extremely difficult.
At least this time, if it weren’t for bumping into the generous Chen Shiqing, she wouldn’t have the money to repay Fu Nancheng, or to rent an apartment and buy fabrics, not to mention any talk of freedom.
So, the only solution to all worries was to become wealthy!
On the fourth day, early in the morning, Qiao Mo’s phone wouldn’t stop ringing.
Annoyed, she covered her head with the blanket, unwilling to listen, too sleepy to open her eyes...
She hadn’t been able to get used to the place these days, the bed was too hard, damp, and wet, and she had hardly slept well.
But it seemed the other party was particularly intent on bothering her, as soon as she hung up, it would start ringing again within seconds.
Qiao Mo got up with a dark expression, looking at the number. It was her ancestor Xie Qinghuan.
That made sense, since no one else seemed to know her new phone number...
"Miss Xie, your instructions..." Qiao Mo spoke softly, weakly.
"Didn’t sleep well?" Xie Qinghuan checked the time; it was almost nine o’clock.
"Yeah... sleepless without company, nights are long and hard to get through." Qiao Mo continued weakly, amusing Xie Qinghuan.
"What, missing your Mr. Fu already?"
"What do you mean my Mr. Fu, we’ve settled everything between us." At the mention of Fu Nancheng, Qiao Mo opened her sleepy eyes and rubbed them.
"Alright, I have something serious to tell you."
"At your command, madam."
"Jing Hao found me, says he needs to see you."
