Chapter 646 - 656 Romantic Journey (2)
As time ticked by, Fu Nancheng’s phone suddenly rang. He turned around and walked to his desk, picked up the phone, and glanced at the number. His gaze softened a bit."Are you done with work?" Qiao Mo stood downstairs at his company, calling him.
"Mm, I have one more meeting, then I’m done."
Qiao Mo nodded, "The team that took our wedding photos called me, asking if the shoot will go as scheduled?"
"Yes, three days from now."
Qiao Mo showed a faint smile. Thinking of the upcoming wedding photo shoot lifted her spirits quite a bit, causing a trace of anticipation, and her cheeks blushed slightly.
"Okay, come home early."
"Xiao Mo..."
Just as Qiao Mo was about to hang up, Fu Nancheng suddenly called her name.
She paused, but he didn’t say anything further. On the line, there was only silence and the soft sound of his breathing.
"You... don’t wait for me to have dinner."
In the end, the words turned into a gentle reminder, as Fu Nancheng softly instructed.
Actually, he was just a little worried if she might be upset because of the rumors. He wanted to ask if she wanted to take a break for a while.
But thinking of the news he saw this morning about her meeting with Louis, he figured Louis would probably continue employing her as usual.
Seeming to sense what was on his mind, Qiao Mo felt a warm sensation inside: "I got it, don’t worry~ I ran into Aunt Xu Wan this afternoon and spent half the day with her shopping at the mall, I’m in a really good mood."
Qiao Mo laughed lightly, not mentioning the paparazzi taking secret photos.
"Mm." He responded softly, then hung up the phone.
Subsequently, he looked at Zhuo Lin and said, "Go check the IP address from where the original news was posted, and investigate those small websites spreading the rumors, find out who contacted them and how they were paid."
"Yes." Zhuo Lin replied, relieved as he quietly exited.
...
When Qiao Mo took the elevator straight up to his office, he wasn’t there.
Upon seeing this lady, Zhuo Lin immediately put on a big smile, worried that any slight negligence might worsen the situation.
His office was very spacious, and with nothing better to do, Qiao Mo sat on his executive chair, spinning around a few times. Then, feeling a bit bored, she lay on the sofa and played some mobile games.
Not long after, her eyelids grew heavy, and her phone ’thud’ fell from her hand to the floor.
Qiao Mo wiped the corner of her mouth, checking to make sure no drool had escaped. She picked up the phone, put it away, and completely collapsed onto the sofa, falling asleep.
By the time Fu Nancheng finished his meeting, it was nearly seven o’clock. Since he had to take Qiao Mo to shoot the wedding photos in three days, followed by the wedding in about half a month, he’s been quite busy lately.
As he pushed the door open, the first thing he saw was a small figure curled up on the sofa.
Perhaps due to the cold while sleeping, Qiao Mo hugged her arms tightly, her brows furrowed, looking rather uneasy.
In a drowsy state, she heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor and struggled to lift her eyelids.
Then, a warm sensation enveloped her as a suit was draped over her.
Qiao Mo closed her eyes for another ten minutes or so, then sat up, sleepily gazing at the man who looked strikingly handsome in his shirt, like a little fangirl.
"You’re back."
"Mm, how come you didn’t let me know you came?" Fu Nancheng was somewhat displeased, as he approached her, pulling her into his arms.
"Hehe, it’s just because I missed you..." She nuzzled gently against his chest.
Feeling the chill on her arms, he felt a bit heartbroken and hugged her even tighter, trying to give her more warmth.
