Chapter 148 - So You Are Not Dense

Unexpectedly, Liusu could really hold back her curiosity. She understood the message in my eyes, and stomped her foot in a huff.

This girl…

I never knew that Liusu would be so patient. She didn’t talk to me for a long time after that. Elder sister Liu and brother Wei also realized that there was a little argument between the two of us, but no one came to act as a peacemaker. Since the two of us had never had an argument before since we came to work at this company, so it was normal for them to be curious.

I was not really angry. It was just a small misunderstanding anyway, but I was a man, so I couldn’t just rush to explain to her, right? Whether it was Dongfang or Dong Xiaoye, I didn’t feel guilty. If Liusu didn’t trust me at all, then it was really sad.

In fact, I also quite enjoyed the feeling now. Wasn’t this the legendary cold war between lovers? Watching Liusu hesitate to speak a few times, I actually felt great… This psychology seemed a bit abnormal.

However, my good mood changed when Mo Fei passed through the general operation team…

An off-white professional suit, which was no different than how she usually dressed, but today’s Mo Fei not only did not wear that pair of black-framed glasses, but she who had never deliberately decorated herself, put on light makeup!

Although it was very light, it was still very obvious, especially those eyes! The light smokey makeup combined with the upturned eyeliner at the end of the eye made her watery eyes no longer have the deep charm like the tranquility of the night. Instead, they were vivid and dazzling like the sun, still mysterious, but more alluring. Red lip wore a shallow layer of lip gloss, and the shiny and transparent texture made it look extra moist and tender.

No one was not surprised, no one was not stunned. If Mo Fei, who was already extremely beautiful, looked like a snow flower blooming on the top of an iceberg normally, then at this moment, she looked like the same flower bathing in the sun, less cold, more enchanting.

Others were dumbfounded, but I, on the other hand, because of the inexplicable fear that surged in my heart, turned a blind eye and continued to work, but the hand that was moving the mouse was shaking uncontrollably.

Mo Fei was beautiful, so beautiful that it would stir up my feelings. I was afraid that my already tilted balance would swing again, not because of her beauty today, but because I didn’t understand why she was so beautiful today!

Mo Fei’s mysteriousness and impermanence made me scared. In her heart, what was I to her? But this was no longer important, because I already had Liusu, so I would not, and could no longer have feelings for her, even if it was really like my shameless narcissistic mind guessed, she was wearing makeup for me…

When Liusu saw me calmly react, there was obviously a trace of relief in her expression, but she couldn’t hide the inferior feeling after seeing Mo Fei. ‘Did this girl not have confidence in me or herself?

If she did not have confidence in me, I would give her confidence, if she did not have confidence in herself, I would still give her confidence. This was what I said to myself…

“Chu Nan, come to my office.”

Her tone was so resolute that I almost slipped under the table. ‘Oh my god, is this a test?’

I turned around and looked at Mo Fei who had a slightly complicated gaze, but the person she was looking at was not me, but Liusu beside me. Then I turned to look at Liusu…

Her high heels stepped on my feet accurately and ruthlessly, smiling as sweet as honey, but concealing poisonous sting, “she is calling you, why don’t you go?”

‘You are stepping on my foot, how can I go?’ I want to cry. Since when did I become so popular?

. . .

“Had fun on the weekend?” After entering the office, Mo Fei did not hurry to sit down. Instead, she personally made two cups of coffee and handed one to me. Fearing that I didn’t know what she meant, she added with a smile, “with Cheng Liusu.”

“Yes.” I answered a very complicated question with only one word. Maybe it was too complicated, so I didn’t know how to answer it in detail.

Should I thank Mo Fei, or question why she invited Liusu behind my back and said something that would cause misunderstandings easily?

“Really,” Mo Fei didn’t have the slightest reactions in her eyes, sitting on her chair, and suddenly said: “She refused.”

I was confused “What?”

“Assistant,” Mo Fei put the cup on the table and gently turned the cup handle with her fingers, staring at me unblinkingly with smiling eyes, “She doesn’t want to be my assistant. ”

“She told me already,” I felt awkward, but didn’t show it. I sat down opposite Mo Fei properly, took a sip of hot tea, and said lightly: “Last Friday, you also invited her to a meal.”

After all, it was always inconvenient for me to ask what Mo Fei said to Liusu in person, so I wanted to force Mo Fei to take the initiative to admit that she had invited Liusu to dinner; not only because of this incident, but my tone has already explained everything: You are a boss and you want to promote your subordinates. Is there any reason for you to invite a subordinate to a meal?

Mo Fei was a smart person, it was impossible for her not to understand it. Sure enough, her expression was frozen, and then she smiled unnaturally, “She told you everything?”

This remark was tantamount to admitting that her behavior that day had another intention. My heart sank and I couldn’t help frowning, “Yes, but I don’t understand, Feifei, what were you… thinking?”

“I want friends,” Mo Fei stopped smiling, looked at me with her usual indifferent eyes, and said persistently: “I want friends and don’t want to lose friends, but I can feel that you are distancing yourself from me!”

“I’ve already said it, I didn’t…”

“You did!”

Mo Fei’s extremely affirmative expression made me feel guilty. I dared not look into her eyes, turned my face to a bitter smile, and said: “Maybe I am too tired recently, ignoring the people around me a little, which gave you this illusion, but what does this have to do with Liusu? Feifei, what you say to Liusu will be misunderstood by her.”

“It’s related to her, Chu Nan, I am a woman and I know women better than you. Cheng Liusu doesn’t like me being friends with you. I can see it, you can see it too, right?” Mo Fei aggrievedly looked at me, who was stunned, and said bitterly, “I felt it when I went to the amusement park that day. She competed with me everywhere. After that, she became jealous of me and always treated me as a love rival! Also, the last question on the questionnaire I gave to the general operation team: if only one employee needs to be laid off, who would you choose? Why would she fill in your name? Because she doesn’t want you to be close to me, am I wrong? !”

I was taken aback. I thought Mo Fei was a dense woman, I didn’t expect her to be so sensitive in this kind of matter, but… since you know Liusu’s affection for me, why did you do something that was easy to be misunderstood by her? ! Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat oozed from my forehead.

The feeling that I was being played made me smile bitterly. It turned out that Mo Fei knew everything, but I thought she knew nothing… However, this thought made me despise myself even more. Since she didn’t bother to expose Liusu’s thoughts, it meant that the feelings she had for me were nothing but more than the feelings between friends…

Mo Fei’s tone then changed, and she frowned while her eyes gleamed with wisdom and magnanimity, and she said, “Chu Nan, you are distancing yourself from me. Actually, you are afraid that Cheng Liusu will misunderstand our relationship, right?”

What she said true. However, it was not totally it. In fact, I was even more afraid that I would misunderstand the relationship between us… I could only smile bitterly, “Anyone will be afraid, right?”

“You finally admitted that it’s because of Cheng Liusu that you are distancing yourself from me.” I couldn’t tell whether Mo Fei was angry or sorrowful at the moment. It could only be clearly seen that her body was very stiff and her shoulders were shaking.

Men were hypocritical, so I would never admit it, “No, I just had that kind of worry, but I won’t distance myself from you, we are friends.”

Mo Fei was dazed, and suddenly smiled, “I know you are lying, but I’m still very happy, at least, you told me half the truth.”

Mo Fei’s smile contained sadness. These words made me ashamed and angry. I couldn’t help but get up suddenly and dropped the teacup heavily on the desk, frightening Mo Fei…
