Chapter 52 Charming (First Order Request!)
The sun rises, and the warm sunlight gently shines through the morning mist, dispelling the coolness of the night and covering the pedestrians on the street with a layer of golden veil.
The weekend mornings in the capital were still bustling. Chen Mo went downstairs early to buy breakfast and sent a message to Xu Hongdou to tell her that he was waiting for her directly at the gate of the community.
While waiting for Xu Hongdou, Chen Mo had breakfast in the car.
Not long after waiting, Chen Mo saw Xu Hongdou's figure walking towards him in the morning light:
Xu Hongdou was wearing a black sweater with bright yellow patterns, paired with black and white striped shorts, and a pair of black boots with gold stripes and white bows on the front. Her hair was simply and casually tied behind her, and she wore tassel earrings, a small shoulder bag, and a pair of black women's sunglasses with a hint of light brown on her face.
Today, Xu Hongdou looks full of energy and vigor, with an indescribable "coolness". She is completely different from her usual work-related appearance.
After Xu Hongdou got on the bus, Chen Mo was a little bit afraid to recognize her, and couldn't help but jokingly said: "Beauty, did you get on the wrong bus?"
"This passenger seat is reserved for my girlfriend. You can't just sit there casually. She will be unhappy."
Xu Hongdou stretched out her slender fingers and gently pulled down her sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. She turned her head and looked at Chen Mo, her eyes cold but a little charming:
"Then I'll go?"
"Now that you're here, why not have breakfast before leaving? If my girlfriend comes later, just help me explain it." Chen Mo handed the bread and yogurt in his hand to Xu Hongdou.
"What do you want to explain? Explain that you didn't cheat, or explain that I'm not a mistress?" Xu Hongdou took it and said, glancing at Chen Mo.
"Explain to me how you could make me fall in love with someone else, and let her learn from you." Chen Mo said seriously.
Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at Chen Mo from behind her sunglasses, then brushed her hair back with her hands and said with a hint of pride, "Beauty is something you can't learn."
"I think so too." Chen Mo nodded in understanding.
Chen Mo drove to the hotel where Xu Hongmi was staying, while Xu Hongdou was eating breakfast in the passenger seat.
"Why is your style so different from when you're at work?" Chen Mo asked while driving.
"When you're at work, there are dress codes, including hairstyle and makeup. You can't wear earrings like these, so it's certainly different."
Xu Hongdou ate bread with one hand and gently fiddled with her tassel earrings with the other, looking beautiful and playful.
Unfortunately, Chen Mo was driving and had no chance to see this scene.
"That's a pity. The rules of your hotel restrict your beauty and affect your performance." Chen Mo said regretfully.
"It's okay. It just gives my colleagues some wiggle room. Otherwise they will be under too much pressure." Xu Hongdou said "open-mindedly".
"Hiss~That's true." Chen Mo agreed with it.
After Chen Mo finished speaking, he still couldn't help laughing. Xu Hongdou was a little conceited from time to time, which was quite cute.
"What are you laughing at?" Xu Hongdou asked.
"Nothing, I just saw that the sun is shining today and I'm in a good mood."
"I'm not lying this time." Xu Hongdou muttered while eating bread.
Xu Hongdou was referring to the time when it was pitch black last night and Chen Mo said the weather was good.
"What did you say?" Chen Mo didn't hear clearly.
"Nothing, just saying you are honest."
"Really? That's because I have good taste." Chen Mo thought Xu Hongdou was talking about how he had just praised her for her beauty.
Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Mo strangely. Why did it feel like the two of them were not on the same wavelength?
Forget it, Xu Hongdou shook her head and drank the yogurt.
The two chatted about irrelevant topics and soon arrived at the hotel where Xu Hongmi was staying.
As soon as the two entered the hotel lobby, they heard a childish cry.
"Aunt~~" Lingling saw Xu Hongdou and immediately ran over.
"Lingdang baby." When Xu Hongdou saw Lingdang running over, she quickly squatted down to catch her.
"Have you had breakfast?" Xu Hongdou asked while holding Lingling in her arms.
"I've eaten~~" the bell said sweetly.
"What did you eat~"
The two, one big and one small, started chatting.
Chen Mo looked at Xu Hongmi who was walking behind Lingling. She was wearing heavy makeup, red lips, and a professional suit. Her high heels created an oppressive rhythm when she stepped on the ground. She had a fierce temperament that was completely different from Xu Hongdou. You could tell at first glance that she was a strong woman.
"Sister Hongmi." Chen Mo greeted.
Although Chen Mo had never met Xu Hongmi, when he heard the conversation between Xu Hongmi and Xu Hongdou last time, Chen Mo easily matched the person in front of him with the voice.
"Are you Chen Mo?"
In fact, Xu Hongmi noticed Chen Mo next to Xu Hongdou at first sight. He had an upright figure, easy-going temperament and handsome appearance. No wonder he could win the heart of her sister. Xu Hongmi examined and commented on him in her heart.
Because Xu Hongdou didn't tell her that Chen Mo would come with her, Xu Hongmi was a little surprised by Chen Mo's arrival. "It's me, Sister Hongmi." Chen Mo smiled and nodded, looking at the two people who were chatting "enthusiastically" next to her, and said, "I'm the driver for them today."
"So that's how it is." Xu Hongmi smiled, and then "complained": "Hongdou is really annoying, always bothering you like this."
"No, no, I just happened to have nothing to do today, so I asked Hongdou if she could take me with her." Chen Mo stated the truth in a joking tone.
However, Xu Hongmi did not take Chen Mo's words seriously. She thought that Xu Hongdou could not wait to bring someone to see her, so there was an inexplicable meaning in Xu Hongmi's eyes when she looked at her sister Xu Hongdou.
"I was thinking of letting Hongdou talk to you later. We made an appointment to have dinner together tonight. We agreed on it last time." Xu Hongmi took the initiative to say.
"No problem. It depends on your time, Sister Hongmi. I don't have anything to do these two days." Chen Mo replied with a smile.
"Oh, right." Xu Hongdou just remembered at this time that she was so busy chatting with Lingling that she hadn't introduced Chen Mo to Xu Hongmi. The last time they talked, they had only talked on the phone and had never met.
Xu Hongdou quickly stood up and found that Xu Hongmi was already chatting with Chen Mo, so she quickly said, "Sister, this is..."
"We already know each other." Xu Hongmi interrupted.
Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Mo, and Chen Mo smiled and nodded.
"Then it saves me a lot of trouble." Xu Hongdou didn't care and said with a smile.
Xu Hongmi looked at Xu Hongdou and knew that her sister really didn't treat Chen Mo as a stranger, otherwise she wouldn't have let Chen Mo come over to take care of Lingling, and she didn't care about leaving him aside. It was obvious that the two of them were familiar with each other and didn't feel awkward.
Xu Hongmi really wanted to ask Xu Hongdou what the current situation was, but now was obviously not the time.
"Then I'll leave the bell to you. I just told Chen Mo that we'll have dinner together tonight." Xu Hongmi said to Xu Hongdou.
"Well, okay, don't worry." Xu Hongdou nodded.
"Then see you in the evening. I have a meeting later, so I'll leave first." Xu Hongmi said to Chen Mo again.
"See you in the evening, Sister Hongmi." Chen Mo said.
After Xu Hongmi left, Chen Mo also greeted Lingling.
"Hello, Lingling." Chen Mo squatted down and waved his hand gently.
Lingling looked at Chen Mo, then at Xu Hongdou, and asked innocently, "Uncle, are you my aunt's boyfriend?"
Chen Mo and Xu Hongdou looked at each other and were both surprised by Lingling's words.
Chen Mo was very curious about his current status in the eyes of Xu Hongdou's family.
Xu Hongdou also wanted to know what consensus her family had reached, and why even Lingling said so.
"Lingdang, who told you that this belongs to your aunt's boyfriend?" Xu Hongdou asked, touching Lingdang's head.
"I heard what my mom and grandma said when they were on the phone," said Lingling.
"Lingling, let's not listen to what your mother and grandmother say. You are still young and don't know what a boyfriend is." Xu Hongdou said quickly.
At this time, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but complain in her heart that Xu Hongmi was unreliable, saying nonsense, and even corrupted Lingling.
"How come Lingdang doesn't understand? My aunt's boyfriend will be my future uncle-in-law." Lingdang said in a baby voice, then looked at Chen Mo and asked:
"Uncle, do you want to be my uncle?"
Chen Mo was also amused by the bell, but he still answered seriously and softly: "Uncle wants to, but what if your aunt doesn't agree?"
"Why doesn't my aunt agree?"
"Because uncle is not your aunt's boyfriend yet." Chen Mo answered patiently.
"Then why isn't uncle my aunt's boyfriend?" Lingling tilted her little head.
"Yeah, why not? You have to ask your aunt. Uncle also wants to know." Chen Mo looked at Xu Hongdou beside him.
Xu Hongdou glanced at Chen Mo, ignored him, took Lingling's hand and walked out:
"Lingdang, come on, auntie will take you out to play, let's stop talking to the bad uncle."
"But aunt, if he is a bad uncle, why did you bring him to see Lingling?" Lingling asked puzzledly.
"Uh" Xu Hongdou didn't know how to answer this question for a moment.
"I asked you to lie to a kid and call you a bad uncle. Is there any bad uncle as handsome as me?" Chen Mo followed the two of them slowly.
Chen Mo looked at the two people in front of him, big hands holding small hands, big eyes staring at small eyes, one was confused, the other embarrassed. This scene was very interesting.
"What defeated you was not innocence but innocence, Xu Hongdou." Chen Mo sighed to himself as he walked behind.
When Xu Hongdou heard what Chen Mo said, she turned around and glared at him in anger.
This moment of scenery is so beautiful.
Chen Mo couldn't help but smile knowingly. How could someone look so good even when he was embarrassed and angry? It made people reluctant to look away.
Ask for all support!
