After Li Ziyu was rejected by Ling Xicheng, he happened to meet Zhang Huiqing who came out of Li Mo's office in the stairwell. Seeing Zhang Huiqing's cheerful expression, Li Ziyu couldn't help curling his lips. Wasn't it just being called away by Li Mo several times alone, as for such a dog-legged look? Although he didn't think much of him in his heart, Li Ziyu didn't show his face, and took the initiative to stop him and talk to him, "Are you coming down from upstairs?" Zhang Huiqing

realized that it was Li Ziyu who was talking to him, and instinctively felt a little defensive . The rumors about Li Ziyu in the company are not very pleasant, so he thought about his words and replied, "Minister Li told me some work, I just went up to report the progress." "I

heard that you also graduated from S University?" Li Ziyu took the initiative to provoke a common topic .

"Well, yes." Zhang Huiqing nodded honestly.

"Me too! But I'm from the Department of Enterprise Management, so I don't know if you have any impression of me."

Zhang Huiqing looked at Li Ziyu in a daze, shook his head and said, "Sorry, I don't seem to have seen you..."

"It's okay," Li Ziyu's voice showed a bit lonely, "I'm not a famous person, you don't know it's normal." "

Uh... don't get me wrong, I didn't participate in school activities very much before, and spent most of my time in Tianguang Studio Self-study over there, so..." Although Zhang Huiqing intuitively thought that something was wrong with this person, he couldn't help but explain a few words when he heard Li Ziyu's sad voice.

"Hey, you were also a famous person in school, and I have seen your art exhibition!" Li Ziyu deliberately opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhang Huiqing curiously, with a bit of innocence in his tone, "Speaking of which, why did you choose Why don't you continue your studies when you come to Chenshi?"

"Because Senior Li Mo, I admire Senior Li Mo very much, and I always wanted to meet him, so I came here as soon as I graduated." Looking at Li Ziyu's ignorant appearance, Zhang Huiqing also gradually let go of his defenses. It should be a misunderstanding, he looks very innocent, he doesn't seem to have any evil intentions. "Then why did you come to Chenshi? Everyone was very surprised. Why did you, a graduate of the business management department, come to the design department?" "

I..." Li Ziyu lowered her head and remained silent for a long time.

"What's the matter with you?" Zhang Huiqing noticed that Li Ziyu's mood was a little off.

"I'm here because of Brother Xicheng...No, it's Boss Ling."

"Huh?" Zhang Huiqing opened his mouth wide in surprise. Ling Xicheng was Li Mo's husband, Li Ziyu's tone seemed to have something to do with Ling Xicheng.

"Boss Ling and I have a very good relationship. I also know my identity, and I didn't want to compete with Li Mo. Unexpectedly, he still can't tolerate me." Li Ziyu deliberately spoke vaguely to arouse Zhang Huiqing's sympathy . Li Ziyu found out that Zhang Huiqing, who has been very close to Li Mo recently, is a person with a very detached personality and no discernment. If he can get close to each other, maybe he can get news about Li Mo from him. Li Mo is now well hidden by Ling Xicheng, even if he is in the same company every day, he has no chance to get in touch with Li Mo.

Hearing Li Ziyu's words, Zhang Huiqing frowned. He instinctively rejected Li Ziyu. Although Zhang Huiqing was a little innocent, he was not stupid. Although Li Ziyu's words were pitiful, it was obvious that Li Mo had been bullying him.

Zhang Huiqing was displeased, so he didn't show too much mercy when he said, "Senior and Ling are always legal couples, and it's a couple's business if there is anything they can tolerate. I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

Li Ziyu was confused by Zhang Huiqing, he didn't expect that Zhang Huiqing would worship Li Mo so blindly. It's just an assistant to a designer with no name and no distinction. With Li Mo's backing, he dared to mock himself like this, and he would not let them go.

Zhang Huiqing, who was separated from Li Ziyu, thought about the conversation just now, the more he felt something was wrong, avoided other people in the office, and quietly turned back to Li Mo. Knocked on the door, but there was no response, Zhang Huiqing thought that Li Mo was too focused and didn't hear, so he opened the door on his own initiative, but he didn't expect to meet President Ling who was pestering Li Mo for a hug.

"Uh..." Zhang Huiqing said in embarrassment, "I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Ling, the senior, you are busy first, so I will go down first." Zhang Huiqing quickly closed the door and left. This is really embarrassing, I really can't afford to see my boss flirting with the president in the office or something...

But after thinking about it, Zhang Huiqing felt that Mr. Ling and his seniors have such a good relationship, and they can't do without him at work. What Li Ziyu said should be It's all rumors! Since it's all rumors, I'd better not learn what I just said to my seniors, so as not to embarrass the couple. After solving a problem in his mind, Zhang Huiqing returned to his work station.

Lingxi City on the other side was more depressed. I thought no one would look for Li Mo, so I habitually left the door unlocked, but I forgot that there was this new elementary school boy. Seeing Li Mo's darkened face, Ling Xicheng rubbed over and cautiously persuaded, "Mo Mo, don't be so stern, let's get off work together!

" Swallowing the words, he gritted his teeth and said, "President Ling, it's time for you to go back to work!"

Li Mo could hardly maintain his prudent elite image, and it was almost as if he was seen cuddling with the president by his junior and future assistant in the office. can not imagine. I don't do my job properly during working hours, how will I face my elementary school students in the future?

"Uh... dear, don't mind too much, it shows that we have a good relationship." Looking at Li Mo's increasingly serious face, Ling Xicheng felt that something was going to go wrong.

"You go out, I want to calm down alone!" Li Mo couldn't listen to Ling Xicheng's words at all, he couldn't bear to push him out of the door and locked it behind him. I thought to myself, I usually indulged him too much, and when I got into trouble, I didn't even care about the occasion.

Li Mo ignored Ling Xicheng until he got home, and even asked the driver to take him off after get off work. Ling Xicheng sat in the office and waited for a long time, but Wenli told him that he had just seen Li Mo go back alone.

When Ling Xicheng got home, Li Mo had already changed his clothes and was cooking. Looking at the closed kitchen door and the intermittent sound of cutting vegetables, Ling Xicheng had an ominous premonition.

as expected. At dinner, Ling Xicheng looked at the dishes on the table and felt bitter in his mouth. Cold bitter gourd, bitter gourd eggs, bitter gourd stuffed with meat, even the dessert after the meal is bitter gourd pear soup, Ling Xicheng felt that he had lost his appetite before eating.

"Momo, this is..." Ling Xicheng swallowed and asked, pointing to the dishes on the table.

"Bitter melon is just right for you. It's good to eat more." Li Mo's answer was quite cold. He knew that Ling Xicheng didn't like bitter melon, especially the harsh taste of bitter melon. But today Li Mo didn't know what was wrong, so he intentionally cooked a large table of bitter gourd dishes. Maybe it was really because of Ling Xicheng's lack of restraint, so I also wanted to see how embarrassed he was.

"Hey," Ling Xicheng hesitated and didn't know where to start to put down his chopsticks, and felt bitter when he looked at any dish. In the end, Ling Xicheng frowned and put some tender-looking bitter gourd eggs in the bowl. After hesitating for a long time, he still wanted to eat it.

Li Mo looked at his reluctant expression and thought he was cute, and couldn't help laughing out loud, "I'm not a child, don't be picky eaters, eat it quickly." Li Mo said, deliberately picked up a lot of cold bitter gourd and put it on the table. In Ling Xicheng's bowl, he scooped up a large bowl of bitter gourd pear soup.

Looking at the dishes Li Mo put into the bowl, Ling Xicheng's expression became a little more gloomy, and Li Mo suddenly felt that his mood was much better.

"Mo Mo!" Ling Xicheng called Li Mo in a accusing tone.

"What's the matter? Don't you like the dishes I cook?" Li Mo said with a sad look on purpose, maybe he's used to the recent changes in Lingxi City, and now Li Mo doesn't get along with him as stiffly as he used to . Occasionally, I also want to embarrass Ling Xicheng and see him pampering me.

"It's okay, I like it very much." Knowing that Li Mo's grievance was pretending, Ling Xicheng still couldn't bear to say the word he didn't like, so he could only silently swallow the bitter gourd in his mouth. Li Mo has failed in his studies, but he is still the cute and obedient Mo Mo back then. Ling Xicheng thought depressingly, no matter what happened, as long as he met Li Ziyu, he would turn bad. Ling Xicheng blamed Li Ziyu for all the reasons for today's unhappiness. He didn't realize that the reason for Li Mo's anger was because he was messing with others in the office and was discovered by his subordinates.

"Okay, don't act like I'm bullying you. I blanch bitter gourds with water, and the bitterness has long since faded away. In addition, I add sugar to some extent in these dishes, or other ingredients that can neutralize the bitterness , not as serious as you imagined. Besides, don't you even dislike onion and ginger now? Why are you still afraid of bitter gourd?" Li Mowen persuaded Ling Xicheng to try these dishes. Although it was intentional to punish him, he still did it with his heart. The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, eating some bitter gourd to reduce the heat is also good for Ling Xicheng's body.

Seeing Ling Xicheng frowning and reluctantly swallowing the bitter gourd, Li Mo shook his head, got up and went to the kitchen to take out the stewed potatoes and beef in front of Ling Xicheng, he still didn't want him to be wronged, knowing that he might There is no way to pretend.

Ling Xicheng happily hugged Li Mo, "I knew you loved me, Mo Mo! You wouldn't be so cruel as to tell me to eat so much bitter gourd." "

You don't take me seriously at all. ..." Li Mo turned his head and complained softly.

"I can't control it," Ling Xicheng couldn't help but hugged the awkward Li Mo tightly, kissed his lips, and said seriously in his ear, "When I sit in the office every day, I can't help thinking of You, especially knowing that you are next door, are even more..."

"Okay, let's eat quickly." Li Mo hurriedly pushed Ling Xicheng away to interrupt his nonsense, and the meal would be too much to eat any more. How come I didn't realize that Ling Xicheng's love words were so fluent before, and he didn't need to draft.

Looking at Li Mo's blushing ears, Ling Xicheng didn't speak, but smiled and ate the bitter gourd in the bowl. In fact, if you taste it carefully, it is really not bitter and has a touch of sweetness. Maybe I will also like bitter gourd in the future, Ling Xicheng thought, just like liking Li Mo.
