Forbidden Game: Ruthless CEO, Please Set Me Free

Chapter 689 - 699 Follow-up (11)

Qiao Mo glanced over and discovered several cute little flower pots on the table—pink, yellow, blue, some painted with floral patterns, others with cartoon animals.These small flower pots were filled with lovely, crystal-clear little plants.

There were haworthia, bear paw, and many other small plants she couldn’t name, with some planting a few in a pot and others occupying a pot alone.

The soil in the pots was also full of white sand and stones, with a few adorable cartoon toys standing in it, exuding a youthful charm.

"You’re pregnant now, and it’s not good to face computers and phones every day. Having more small plants around can help protect against radiation, which is good for the baby," Xu Wan advised earnestly.

Qiao Mo was moved, showing a gentle smile at Xu Wan, "Aunt Xu, you’re so kind."

Xu Wan was slightly taken aback, then smiled, "They’re just a few small plants, nothing expensive."

Qiao Mo looked at her silently. Indeed, they’re not worth much money.

But precisely because of that, they seemed even more precious.

Sometimes, for people who already have wealth, what is worth spending time on is often more precious than money.

"Oh, right, you’re not nearsighted, are you?" Xu Wan suddenly seemed to remember something.

Qiao Mo shook her head, "No, why?"

Xu Wan immediately took out a pretty glasses case from her bag and placed it on Qiao Mo’s desk, then pulled out a compression bag.

Qiao Mo looked at the items on the table, not understanding her meaning for a moment.

Xu Wan pushed the glasses case towards Qiao Mo and instructed, "These are glasses I got for you. They’re non-prescription but anti-radiation. You should wear them while working, especially now that you’re pregnant. You must be extra careful."

"And this, it’s a radiation protection suit. You should wear it regularly. I checked many stores, and none of them looked good. I picked this one after a long search, but it still seems a bit ugly." Xu Wan muttered to herself, opening the compression bag.

Indeed, inside the bag was a light pink radiation protection suit with white heart-shaped patterns on it.

It’s not really ugly, but wearing it in the office generally might not look very nice.

"Anyway, you definitely need to wear the glasses. These small plants can help a bit. Remember to eat more fruits and vegetables and maintain a balanced diet," Xu Wan advised again.

Qiao Mo’s eyes were slightly moist as she opened the glasses case to take a look.

Inside the case was a pair of half-rim glasses.

The frame was very thin, black in color, and the temples were metal, very pretty.

"How are they? Do you like them?" Xu Wan asked softly.

Qiao Mo looked at her and nodded firmly, "I like them, I really do."

"As long as you like them...that’s good." Xu Wan patted Qiao Mo’s hand, looking quite pleased.

Qiao Mo gave her a small smile, feeling slightly choked up.

For some reason, at that moment, she suddenly thought of Yang Peiyun.

She was her real mother, yet for so many years, she had never been by her side. Does she even know she’s expecting a baby now?

Forget it...forget it.

All these years without her, she had managed just fine. Why expect so much?

"Xiao Mo, do you have any plans after work later?"

Qiao Mo thought for a moment. Besides planning to visit Qiao Yun at the hospital, she seemed to have no other plans.
