Chapter 88

“Babe, let’s go out to eat as well.” After they left, Tan Jingmo stood up and told Bao Er.

Bao Er shook her head in fright. She absolutely disagreed.

There was so much horrible gossip down there right now, and he still wanted to bring her around, wasn’t that just giving others more chances to gossip? If it were just one or two people bad mouthing her, then it was fine because there was no perfect person, there would always be people who dislike you. But the problem was almost everyone in the company saw her in that way, so how could she maintain her composure?

“I’ve already eaten with Xiaoyi down there just now, you should go on your own! It’s true, you can ask her if you don’t believe me.” Bao Er averted his gaze without batting an eyelid, then directly shoved him out before Tan Jingmo could react.

“You should quickly go and eat, don’t starve yourself.”

Tan Jingmo felt a warmth in his heart after he heard her words. At least this woman would still use such a lame excuse to show concern for himself, but this could still be improved.

“Actually, I am really starving.” Tan Jingmo looked at Bao Er with a naughty smile. His eyes slowly moved down from her face, then looked at Bao Er’s chest openly with fiery eyes.

Bao Er glared at him in both embarrassment and anger. She closed the office door with a “bang”, then yelled at Tan Jingmo: “Pervert.”

So she wanted to jump out of this hole. To change the current situation, the only way was to distance herself from Tan Jingmo.

At night, Bao Er came out after she’d finished her business, then sat beside Tan Jingmo.

She had gotten used to his behavior of staying in the “golden nest” for the past few days. The reason was because Bao Er tried to convince herself that Tan Jingmo was her gold lord so he had his own choice.

Tan Jingmo grabbed the remote control and switched it to her favorite television program, then pulled Bao Er into his embrace to watch it together.

“Ah Mo, I have something to tell you.” Bao Er deduced that he wasn’t in a bad mood, so she spoke softly in his ears.

Tan Jingmo nodded slightly while watching the television, “What? Tell me?” His impassive response looked like he wasn’t listening at all.

How should she tell him? To say that I don’t want to stay in your place, please transfer me away!

Bao Er shook her head. Not good, this wasn’t good. Her stance was too strong and it felt like their positions were the other way around.

Or should she blink her large eyes intensely with a pitiful look, then tell him with a weeping face that she didn’t want to stay there as she wasn’t used to that place, and she even had to be the subject of gossip?

If she used this technique, men would usually be more susceptible, but to do it or not was a problem. If he listened and fulfilled his promise, that would be the best. The worst thing that could happen was she would sacrifice her body. But if he didn’t agree? Not to mention that acting cute didn’t fit her personality, she might even anger Tan Jingmo, losing more than she hoped for.

Tan Jingmo was puzzled when he saw that she stopped speaking after saying one sentence. He turned towards Bao Er, to see that she sometimes nodded and sometimes shook her head. The changes in her facial expression looked so strange yet cute.

“Say whatever you want to say, or else I’m going to sleep.” Tan Jingmo glanced at her, and spoke with a calm voice.

“Why don’t you let me go back to Qing Qing Jie’s place!” Bao Er heard his words, and subconsciously blurted out the words that were in her mouth. She quickly lowered her head after she said that.

She pretended that she didn’t see his face. This was the best way.

Tan Jingmo’s eyebrows rose lightly, giving his sharp brows a beautiful curvature, matched with the faint smile at the corners of his lips.

“You’ve been thinking about this for the past few days?” Tan Jingmo asked.

He thought that Bao Er had given up on it, and he didn’t expect that she would talk about this again.

Bao Er lifted her head and met his eyes. She nodded in silence.

“What’s the reason?”

Tan Jingmo’s tone didn’t change much from before, but he was slowly making plans in his heart.

His plan of “raising¹TN: Means to support her livelihood” Bao Er.

This was his first time he broke his principle, to bring her to his side because he had a small interest towards Bao Er. He could see that she’d only accepted his request because of money like other women, and not willingly as well. But this wasn’t the main point, the main point was he gave her money with the aim of only raising her.

What kind of woman who had been “raised” by someone else still needed to go work outside? Wasn’t it enough to go stroll the streets, makeup and shop?

He’d been so lenient towards Bao Er, so why did she still have such wild thoughts? Was it so difficult for her to stay beside him? To the extent that she wanted to escape from him all the time?

Thinking about escaping, Tan Jingmo really felt that at least Bao Er was someone who kept her promise. At least she didn’t leave without a word.

But if that was really the case, he would also bring her back without batting an eyelid.

He had always acted this way, being concise and straightforward.

Bao Er saw that there was no expression on his face, so she lowered her voice a little.

“I have nothing to do there, it will attract gossip. Now, many people in the company have started talking about this privately. This is a bad influence and won’t be good to the company.”

Tan Jingmo smiled faintly and indifferently, “So you want to go back to Liang Qing Qing’s side?”

He suddenly raised his head to gaze at Bao Er, but his eyes looked unfamiliar to Bao Er. “You’ve already done it yet you’re afraid people will talk about you?”

Bao Er was stunned. Her face turned pale immediately. She slowly bit her lips and said nothing. Perhaps she’d never expected him to say this, which smashed all her reasons and excuses into pieces at once.

Yeah, she’d already done it, yet she was afraid that people would talk about her.

Once the news spread, if someone came and heard the news, then indirectly passed it to her parents, what should she do? Did she still have the face?
