Chapter 67

Bao Er rested for two days in her “golden nest”, and miraculously Tan Jingmo didn’t visit during these two days.

For the next two days during the weekend, Tan Jingmo still didn’t appear. This was a little contradictory with his usual style. Bao Er recalled back in detail about the time when Tan Jingmo visited her “golden nest” and found that it was mostly during the two days of Fridays and Saturdays. He was quite punctual like a woman’s menstruation.

No, it was not only for these two days, because Tan Jingmo had no idea that she was resting. Bao Er thought very seriously about it and realized that it had been half a month since she last saw Tan Jingmo.

Half a month? It has already been half a month? Within this period, he didn’t call or message her, so what did this mean?

Bao Er didn’t miss him, she just thought that this must mean: a sign of losing his affection!

This was the first thing that she thought of in her mind. When she realized that this might be the truth, she unexpectedly felt happy.

Without the ties between her and Tan Jingmo, she had less things to worry about. She didn’t need to worry that other people would look down on her after this affair was discovered, and she also didn’t need to do things that she didn’t enjoy just to please him.

Although, generally for these three months, Tan Jingmo didn’t always come to the “golden nest” and didn’t stay for a long time either. He also didn’t ask her to do anything that would cause her trouble in particular.

So, Bao Er acted more like a child when she was hanging out with Lu Xi Jie.

Lu Xi Jie’s pretty bratty face immediately darkened when he heard Bao Er’s words. This woman really had no image at all. She was abating his elegance to the extreme.

Bao Er turned around and continued walking forward. She didn’t consider Lu Xi Jie as someone important at all.

Walking around the zoo was nothing special. The animals that were closed up in their enclosure didn’t look lively. Bao Er felt sad from just watching. They were like someone who wanted freedom but were trapped in their houses unable to go out. She thought that she could understand this feeling.

“So, do you still want to see the pandas? If you do, be fast, or else we’re going back!” Bao Er rolled her eyes at Lu Xi Jie who was still dilly-dally at the back.

“Of course, let’s go now!” When Lu Xi Jie heard that they were going back, he obviously didn’t want to. He came all the way to the zoo today to see the pandas, so of course he wasn’t going back before seeing them.

When they reached the place where they kept the pandas, Bao Er and Lu Xi Jie stood outside to watch them. Two round and fat pandas were hiding inside, playing while eating the bamboos. They looked so comfortable.

This was also the first time for Bao Er to come to the zoo or to see the pandas, so she was quite excited as well. The adult and child watched delightfully while standing at the fence.

“Woman, if you eat more, you’ll become as fat as the pandas inside!” Lu Xi Jie said as he glanced at Bao Er who kept stuffing food into her mouth while walking.

Women were most afraid to be called fat. Body shape and weight were topics that should never be talked about, Bao Er was no exception.

She looked at her small arms and legs, with only around ninety pounds, how was she fat? Lu Xi Jie’s mouth just wouldn’t say anything nice.

“Lu Xi Jie, I won’t think that you’re mute if you don’t speak. As for you, you already act like an old man when you’re just seven years old. How do you want to live when you turn seventy years old?”

Not only the two of them were interested in the pandas, there were still other tourists who brought children with them just like Bao Er.

For example, there was a very pretty small girl at the side who glanced at Lu Xi Jie after she heard Bao Er’s words. She found that he didn’t look like an old man so she was very confused.

“Papa, why does this old man not have a mustache? Don’t all old men on television have white, long mustaches?”

That parent looked at Bao Er and Lu Xi Jie awkwardly after he heard that. He hugged his own daughter to move further away from them.

“Hahaha”, Bao Er laughed heartily while holding her stomach. That little girl was truly cute.

“Lu Xi Jie, why don’t you have a mustache? The little girl thinks it’s very strange!”

Lu Xi Jie’s small face wrinkled cooly as he glanced at Bao Er in an imposing manner. One word slowly came out of his mouth. “Psycho”, then he continued walking forward without looking back.

Bao Er felt a little dejected to be ignored by a seven-year-old. Ever since Lu Xi Jie found out that the mouse she scared him with was a “fake”, Bao Er realized that there were lesser things that could threaten Lu Xi Jie.

That was why Lu Xi Jie became so pompous again.

“Ai Ai, walk slower, hey, Lu Xi Jie did you hear me? You’re not listening to me? If you don’t, I’ll make you go and sleep with the pandas!”

Lu Xi Jie continued walking forward.

He wasn’t an ignorant kid. Although he was still young at the age of seven, he was quite adept on how to differentiate things. He wasn’t like the children of his age who believed those fairytales and prince charming. That time when he was startled by Bao Er’s mouse was purely an accident.

Lu Xi Jie was bitten by a mouse when he was five years old. It was a quite serious incident so it became a trauma in his heart. He started to become scared of mice.

At that time, Bao Er caught his weak point so Lu Xi Jie was forced to relent unwillingly. When Bao Er unwittingly blurted out that it was a fake, Lu Xi Jie almost killed her with his eyes and even looked down at her scornfully for one week.

The two days of the weekend passed just like that. Bao Er continued going back to “VK” to work after she decluttered her mind.

That Monday when she went back to work at “VK”, Bao Er was shocked by the huge poster of her and Mo Xiaoyi when she arrived at the ground floor of the company.

The poster was of her fashion in a princess outfit. On her head was the only one crown that Liang Qing Qing designed, and she was wearing a small light pink gown over her body that accentuated her waistline beautifully. The length of the gown was also just right to emphasize her slender body and to show off her long legs and thin waist. She looked tempting beyond her innocence and the smile at the corner of her mouth was very refreshing like a summer breeze. It fits nicely together.

Beside her was Mo Xiaoyi’s poster who was also in the young ladies’ look. She smiled cheerfully, playful and pure. They looked very striking together.

Looking at this scene, Bao Er’s brain was murky for a while before she figured it all out after twists and turns. She guessed that Liang Qing Qing’s design must have won, or else why would they display it at such an obvious position.

Bao Er silently contained the dynamic emotions in her heart as she lowered her head and walked forward slowly.

When she reached the design department, Mo Xiaoyi hopped towards Bao Er.

“Bao Er, have you seen the poster outside? Wakaka, Qing Qing Jie’s design actually won the prize, it’s really within my expectation!” Mo Xiaoyi was overjoyed, her face was full of delight.

Bao Er blinked. She was still very happy to hear the news. She raised her head to ask: “Which prize? Champion?”

There was a reason why Bao Er guessed this, because the poster outside didn’t just have Liang Qing Qing’s design but also others. However, only Liang Qing Qing’s young ladies’ series was placed at the most obvious position.

“No, it’s the top creativity prize. But don’t underestimate this top creativity prize, this is the first time this prize is introduced in this company, and Qing Qing Jie got it. Now everyone in the company is envious and jealous!”

Mo Xiaoyi talked so jovially that her face was flying with colors. She looked completely different from her usual dense and heartless self.

Bao Er smiled too but not as exaggerated. “Yes, we reap what we sow!” She was referring to when Liang Qing Qing didn’t even rest or sleep when she was drawing the designs.

Mo Xiaoyi nodded. She pulled Bao Er towards Liang Qing Qing’s office.

“Yes, have you seen the full set of photos? I’ve printed them out, three sets, each of us has one because Qing Qing Jie wants one too. We can only get them by tomorrow, I’ll pass them to you then. Hahaha, we look so pretty, you should see it. This is the only time in my lifetime that I look so dominant, yup, I like this queen look!”

Mo Xiaoyi said while making a handsome pose towards Bao Er. But after she saw the person behind Bao Er, her swagness reduced by half. When she noticed that person’s face was icy cold and his whole body was giving out a chilly aura, her entire person froze.

Mo Xiaoyi put down her leg that rose up to the air and her face spontaneously became calm like nothing had happened.

Three seconds later, Mo Xiaoyi secretly took a quick glimpse at him and found that the man’s face was becoming darker. She slowly walked towards him with both her hands behind her, looking like a typical small child who had done something wrong.

“Brother, hehe, you’re so early today!” Mo Xiaoyi greeted Mo Shaoyang dryly as her heart silently grumbled.

Mo Shaoyang was expressionless as he looked at his sister who was acting obedient and cute in front of him and found that her hands were rolling both ends of her shirt habitually. The typical way of showing her remorse.
