The secrets of the boudoir were a kind of melding agent for feelings, especially for two people who had a foundation of feelings. Often, the feeling of belonging to each other would make the relationship between the two people have a qualitative leap. This time, it was different from the first time. Xia Mang had done this while she was sober. Strictly speaking, she had done it willingly. Xia Mang had no choice but to admit that although her relationship with Cheng Mo was ridiculous at the beginning and she had always felt that she didn't like Cheng Mo, she was sure at this moment that if she didn't like Cheng Mo at all, she wouldn't have let such a thing happen again.
If they didn't have any emotional foundation, how could a man and a woman do such intimate things? When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel bitter. If Xu Wenhao didn't have a good impression of Chu Ning, then even if he drank, that wouldn't have happened, right? Last time, Yanyan had concluded with her professional medical knowledge that if a man was completely drunk, he would not be able to have sex at all. The so-called drunkenness was just an excuse. If such a thing happened, he would at least be 30% sober.
The bed under her was a series of grayish-white checkered sheets, but this time, the location was changed to Repulse Bay Villa. It looked like Cheng Mo's place of residence, not the Central Garden that was not popular at all last time. However, even though they had more than one intimate relationship, Xia Mang still couldn't face Cheng Mo face to face.
"Hungry?" Cheng Mo was carrying Xia Mang. Xia Mang's back was facing him, and her smooth back was pressed against his chest. She was petite and made him want to protect her. Cheng Mo felt like he was possessed. Holding Xia Mang like this made him feel more satisfied and peaceful than ever.
Xia Mang shook his head and pushed him away. He said in a low voice,""You get up first."
The hand that was wrapped around her chest started to move around again. There was a gentle and sticky kiss on her right earlobe. Xia Mang reached out to grab the restless hand on her chest and turned to glare at Cheng Mo.
"The food is cold." Cheng Mo pulled his hand away and hugged Xia Mang.
"It's not my fault." Xia Mang retorted. It was a very strange feeling. Although they were so intimate just now, she was still not used to being naked. Xia Mang did not dare to look into Cheng Mo's eyes and only buried her face in his chest. The solid and warm touch was completely different from her own, but it gave her a moment of peace.
Since he had decided to love, or had already fallen in love, there was nothing to regret. Xia Mang's rationality told her that Cheng Mo was not the best choice for her because choosing him would bring her a lot of unexpected troubles and conflicts. However, since fate had turned out this way, Xia Mang did not want to run away. She thought that after what happened to Xu Wenhao, she would never love again. She did not expect that a new love would come so suddenly and quickly. Perhaps she could no longer love so deeply and so purely, so she felt that she should grab hold of it when it came.
If she chose Cheng Mo, this relationship might be very difficult. However, no matter how hard it was to love, one still had to love.
In the end, Xia Mang didn't stay the night. Although Cheng Mo wanted to do so, Xia Mang insisted.
As the end of the year approached, work became especially busy. The days passed quickly, and the weeks passed quickly. After New Year's Day, it would soon be the Spring Festival. He became busier with his work and personal matters. Xia Mang had been working overtime a lot recently, and Cheng Mo was also very busy. No matter how busy the two of them were, Cheng Mo still insisted on picking her up from work. Sometimes, when he worked late, he would actually send her home. It was not a long journey from the company to Xia Mang's house. No matter how slow the car drove, there was not much time for them to spend together. Sitting down for a meal and a date became a dream that could only be realized on the weekends. With Cheng Mo's status, his persistence towards Xiamang and his romantic and considerate appearance once again attracted the envy of all the colleagues in the Ji Yuan Group's headquarters. When everyone was discussing it behind his back, they all said that Xiamang was really lucky, especially those unmarried female colleagues. They wondered why Xiamang had met such a rare man in the world and fell in love with him.
Because they were busy, they had less contact with their friends. It was always like this after work. She would be busy until the new year before she could take a break and ask Ye and the others to go shopping and buy gifts for her to buy new clothes or something.
Therefore, one day, when Xia Mang, who was extremely busy, received a call from Lin Ran, he did not recognize that it was Lin Ran. Lin Ran and Ye 'zi had been in love for more than a year, but this was the first time Lin Ran had called Xiamang.
"Oh, it's Lin Ran. What's the matter?”It was 5:30 pm, the normal time to get off work. However, Xiamang had been working overtime every day recently, so it was impossible for her to get off work on time.
"Xiamang, has Ye contacted you?”Lin Ran sounded hesitant.
"Uh, no. Why?" Speaking of which, Xiamang had not contacted Ye for a long time.
"Xiamang, give Ye 'zi a call.”Lin Ran was silent for a while before hanging up.
Only then did Xia Mang feel that something was wrong. Lin Ran did not explain in detail, so he vaguely felt that something had happened between Ye 'zi and Lin Ran. After sorting out the work on hand, he realized that most of the work could be dealt with tomorrow. He would leave work early today. At most, he would work overtime later tomorrow. Cheng Mo had been on a business trip to City H for the annual meeting of the Heng Long Group's headquarters the day before yesterday. It would take a week, so Xia Mang decided to get off work immediately and go straight to Ye 'zi's house.
As expected, something was off during the phone call. Xiamang didn't ask anything else. She packed dinner for the two of them at PizzaHut and went straight to Leaf's nest. When she opened the door, Ye 'zi's expression was a little bad. She looked dull and lost her usual heroic spirit as a heroine. The ominous feeling in Xia Mang's heart grew stronger, but he said,""Let's eat while it's still hot. I'm hungry.”
Ye Zi smiled and nodded. She was exceptionally silent.
"Lin Ran called me today. Ye 'zi, what happened between you and him?”Xiamang had wanted to ask in a roundabout way to ensure that her relationship with Ye was not as close as others, but before she could say it, she felt that it was better to be direct.
"They quarreled." Leaf's voice was low, as if she had no appetite.
"For…the house?" Other than that, Xia Mang could not think of anything else.
Leaf suddenly put down the pizza in her hand and sighed. She nodded and shook her head. She did not want to hide it from Xiamang, but she did not know how to say it at the moment. Like Xia Mang, she wasn't used to taking the initiative to talk about her feelings. She would only confess when the other party found some clues and asked about it.
It was only until now that Xia Mang found out that Ye and Lin Ran had an argument on Christmas Eve and then had a cold war. Now, they had been in a cold war for more than half a month!
"Ye 'zi, it's not a good idea for you to not pick up his calls and not let him see you, right?”The incident started on Christmas Eve. Ye 'zi and Lin Ran had arranged to have dinner together. They had already sat down to order food when Lin Ran was called back by his mother, saying that there were some matters at home. When Lin Ran's mother learned that Lin Ran and Ye 'zi hadn't had dinner yet, she asked Ye' zi to go with them. In the end, when they arrived at Lin Ran's house, it was nothing serious. It was just that a relative came to ask Lin Ran to find a better job for his child who was about to graduate. This wasn't the first or second time that something like this had happened. There were several times when Lin Ran was called home before Ye 'zi and Lin Ran had time to eat. When Ye' zi asked the next day, it was always the same thing. Lin Ran's mother was proud of Lin Ran. Her son was a first-class civil servant in the municipal bureau and was highly regarded by the leaders, so he boasted in front of his relatives. Moreover, the tradition of this society had always been like this. His mother had taken on many such matters. Over time, whenever relatives and friends had any problems, they would take the initiative to look for Lin Ran. Although Ye 'zi didn't have much patience for this, it was Lin Ran's family matter after all, so she didn't say much. She went to his house on Christmas Eve. When the relative heard that Lin Ran and Ye 'zi were having dinner outside and mentioned that the shop had raised the price several times that night, Lin Ran's mother lectured her. Although she was talking to her son, Ye' zi could hear the implication. As they talked about the house, Ye 'zi finally couldn't help but reply. Lin Ran's mother was furious. She was used to being authoritative at home and couldn't stand Ye' zi's retort. However, Ye 'zi didn't expect that Lin Ran would also stand on her mother's side this time. His reason was that there were guests present today and he had to take his mother's feelings into account. Ye' zi felt wronged and said that she wasn't feeling well before she took her leave. Lin Ran didn't ask to send her home. Ye 'zi took the car home. The streets were filled with lovers. The girl had a bouquet of flowers and a gift bag in each hand. She thought about how she had been dating Lin Ran for more than a year, but Lin Ran had never given her flowers. She thought about everything just now and the problem with the house. She could not help but cry in the car. Ye 'zi felt even more wronged when Lin Ran was not by her side or a comforting phone call. She suddenly felt that in this relationship, from the beginning, she had always been more proactive than Lin Ran. She never asked Lin Ran for material things, only for him to love and dote on her. However, Lin Ran today made her very sad and disappointed. Although Ye 'zi was independent and strong, she had grown up in a greenhouse. She had never suffered any grievances, and she could not suffer any grievances. This could be seen from her resistance to her climacteric female leader in the company. However, ever since he went to Lin Ran's house, some grievances seemed to be unavoidable, and some problems seemed to be difficult to solve. Thinking about this and thinking about how he had originally planned to bring Lin Ran to meet his parents during the new year, he became even more hesitant.
"Sammy..."
How could Xia Mang not understand Ye Zi's frown and hesitation? She sighed in her heart and asked,""Are you hesitating about bringing Lin Ran home for the new year?”
Xiamang didn't want Ye 'zi and Lin Ran to end up like this.
"Sammy, I've had some arguments with Lin Ran before. Every time we get into a fight, I'm the one who calls him first and then acts as if nothing happened.”
"This time, he should be the one who took the initiative, right?”
"But this time, I don't think it matters who calls first.”
" Ye 'zi…" Xia Mang sighed, not knowing how to comfort her. In Xia Mang's heart, he could not accept a mother-in-law like Lin Ran's mother, let alone Lin Ran's performance that night.
"I told him about meeting my parents during the new year and told my family about it, but now, if these things haven't been resolved, I don't think it's better to bring them home.”Leaf's eyes told Xiamang that she had made up her mind.
"Will Lin Ran have any ideas? Also, even if you're upset and angry, it's not right for you to not pick up his calls and not see him.”Xiamang could imagine what Ye 'zi had been thinking and considering in the past half a month. It seemed that Ye 'zi was seriously considering her future with Lin Ran. The cold war for half a month was a test for Lin Ran and himself. It gave the two of them time and space to think calmly.
"I understand."
After Leaf finished speaking, she got up and heated up the cold pizza. She then went into the kitchen to cook a bowl of instant vegetable soup. The two of them started eating again. Speaking of Xia Mang and Cheng Mo's current situation, Ye 'zi couldn't help but feel a little worried. She wanted to tell Xia Mang that she should read the gossip posts about marrying into rich families on the Internet, but she couldn't bear to dampen Xia Mang's enthusiasm. Besides, Xiamang seemed to be calm and rational, not blindly optimistic.
