Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!

Chapter 1786: He’s Innocent?

Xu Qingzhi only took a casual glance before looking up again. She was surprised to see the man striding in.

Then, she frowned.

“What are you doing here?”

What was this man thinking?

When she needed him, she would never see him. When she didn’t need him, he would haunt her.

Her words made the man’s face darken. However, he walked up to her and sat down on the chair beside her.

Xu Qingzhi was speechless.

Chu Yi was speechless.

The door opened again. This was her second bowl of rice.

When she entered the room and saw that there were suddenly three people in the room, she was slightly puzzled. She placed the rice beside Xu Qingzhi and took out a new pair of chopsticks from the spare table beside her. Then, she walked out with a puzzled expression.

...

What... was going on?

It seemed different from what was said online.

When she turned to close the door, she glanced inside again. Mr Li took out his chopsticks and ate the rice she had just given him.

Oh...

What was said online was indeed wrong.

Who would believe them?

Xu Qingzhi’s face turned colder when she saw her rice being eaten.

She grabbed the bowl of rice in front of Li Mo.

“This is mine.”

Li Mo glanced at her and said, “I’m hungry.”

Xu Qingzhi sneered and picked up her chopsticks to eat a mouthful of rice.

“Did you just want to show your elegance in front of Miss Mo? Are you too embarrassed to eat?”

Li Mo stared at her as she swallowed the rice. His lips twitched imperceptibly. “Of course. How can I let others see my true self so easily? Some things can only be seen by my wife.”

Xu Qingzhi almost choked on her second mouthful of rice.

She clutched her chest and glanced at him. She wanted to say something, but she felt more and more uncomfortable.

Li Mo picked up the cup beside him and turned his body to the side. His hand caressed her back as he brought the cup to her lips. He did not let go.

Xu Qingzhi held the bottom of the glass and took two sips.

Li Mo caressed her back gently.

He was simply a typical loyal dog boyfriend.

However, Xu Qingzhi didn’t notice. She calmed down and turned to look at him.

“Limo, why did you suddenly... go crazy?”

How could he have said those words?!

Was this guy a fake?

Li Mo’s face darkened. He placed the cup on the table, but he didn’t remove his hand from her back. Instead, he caressed her shoulder.

Xu Qingzhi frowned deeply.

Where did this monster come from?

She turned to look at him, but he smiled at her. His gaze landed on the bowl in front of her. “Do you want more?”

How could she eat when she was in his arms?

“What the hell are you doing?” She looked at him in confusion, her brows furrowed and her expression full of suspicion and resistance.

Anger burned in Li Mo’s heart, especially when he saw her expression. It was as if a bucket of oil had been poured into his body, and the suppressed fire surged.

His expression didn’t change, but his grip on her shoulder tightened.

“If you’re not eating, I’ll continue eating.”

As he spoke, he picked up the bowl of rice with one hand and took a bite naturally.

Xu Qingzhi’s lips twitched.

She looked up at Chu Yi, who was sitting opposite her.

She seemed to be asking Chu Yili what was going on.

Chu Yi shrugged, indicating that he had no idea. However, the smile on his face was indescribably... strange.

A dull pain came from her shoulder, causing Xu Qingzhi’s face to crease.

At this moment, Li Mo raised his head and looked at Chu Yi with a faint smile.

“Why did Best Actor Chu come all the way here?”

Chu Yi raised an eyebrow and picked up his chopsticks to eat a mouthful of food. “I can’t reject an old friend.”

“Old friend?” Li Mo gave a fake smile.

“Of course, Young Master Li might not know, but Qingzhi and I are childhood sweethearts. We haven’t seen each other for many years, and it’s rare for us to meet in our careers. We’re quite fated.”

Xu Qingzhi’s eyelids twitched as she glared at Chu Yi.

Were all the men today crazy?

Childhood sweethearts?

How many times had she seen him when she was young?

Sensing the increasing strength of the hand on her shoulder, Xu Qingzhi’s expression changed slightly and she shrunk her shoulders.

He loosened his grip.

He was trying to kill her by making it sound so ambiguous!

Li Mo nodded. “I see. It’s indeed rare. Since you’re my wife’s childhood sweetheart, I naturally can’t neglect you. If you need any help in the future, don’t stand on ceremony.”

Xu Qingzhi gave up struggling completely. In a short period of time, she was used to these two monsters pretending to be polite under her nose.

Chu Yi said, “That’s great. Sorry to disturb you in the future.”

Li Mo paused. “How many days do you plan to stay here?”

“I can’t be sure, but at least a month.”

Li Mo’s face darkened visibly.

Chu Yi pursed his lips and took a sip of water.

In the end, Li Mo finished Xu Qingzhi’s bowl of rice.

The few of them stood up to end the meal. Li Mo pulled out a chair for Xu Qingzhi.

Xu Qingzhi looked up at him and walked out of the gap. The next second, her waist tightened.

Her body froze slightly. She looked down at the hand on her waist and her heart tugged slightly.

The doubts and rejection just now had become docile.

This was what she wanted.

Although his sudden change confused her, it would be great if everything was true.

However, just as she was feeling smug about this beautiful situation, the moment she opened the door, the joy and passion in her heart was suddenly dampened.

“Chu Yi, it’s really Chu Yi!”

“Chu Yi is indeed with Madam Xu!”

“It’s really...”

A group of reporters surrounded them and kept taking photos.

She sounded as if she had expected this.

Clearly, someone knew that she was having dinner with Chu Yi.

Xu Qingzhi stood rooted to the ground in Li Mo’s embrace and smiled sarcastically to herself. In front of the reporters, she remained calm and composed.

When the reporters had enough photos, they realized that it was different from what they knew.

They couldn’t let go of news about Best Actor Chu.

Moreover, it was a scandal between Madam Li and Best Actor Chu.

The wife of the richest man in Rong City was actually together with Best Actor Chu. If they really found out... Just the thought of it made her excited.

The popularity of this news was comparable to Shen Fanxing, a hot topic in Ping Cheng City.

Just as they were feeling smug, they realized something.

This material seemed to be ruined.

If it was just Chu Yi and Xu Qingzhi, it would be fine. Even if there was a third person, they could confirm the relationship between Chu Yi and Xu Qingzhi.

Of all things, he shouldn’t be the man standing beside Xu Qingzhi—the CEO of the Li Corporation, the husband of the rumored female lead, Limo.

It was said that Chu Yi and Mrs Li had a close relationship and they were even having a meal together privately. However, if the couple were to have a meal with Chu Yi, all the gossip would not be valid.

No matter what, it was impossible for a man to be a cover for his wife and adulterer, right?

Not to mention, he was the CEO of the Li Corporation.

That was why...

What was the situation now?

Xu Qingzhi and Chu Yi were not rumored.

Xu Qingzhi and Limo weren’t the rumored couple who were on the verge of breaking up.

Everyone used to gossip about Fatty, but now, he had been beaten up. His face hurt.

They were clearly on good terms.

If Limo had suddenly barged into the private room and tried to be intimate with her, she would be baffled and confused. However, when she saw so many reporters, Xu Qingzhi knew everything and came to a realization.

So that was it.

Facing the reporters who had suddenly surrounded him, Chu Yi frowned subconsciously. After a while, he chuckled and pulled up his hat slightly to face the reporters.

“Chu Yi, do you have any work arrangements in Rongcheng?”

“Yes.”

“Can you reveal what it is?”

“I can’t.”

“Then what’s your relationship with Mrs. Li?”

“Friend.”

Although there was an answer, it was better not to say it.

The word “friend” was no longer a simple term.

Everyone turned their attention to Xu Qingzhi and Li Mo.

Li Mo held Xu Qingzhi’s waist intimately. The woman’s abdomen was slightly protruding and she had a faint smile on her face. It was obvious that the two of them were on good terms.

When the few of them left, Chu Yi suddenly stopped and turned to ask the reporter beside him.

“Can I ask how you know that we’re eating here?”

The reporters looked at each other.

“In the beginning, the video of Chu Yi at the airport was uploaded online.”

“There are photos of Chu Yi getting into Mrs Li’s car...”

“After that, we received an anonymous call saying that Mrs Li and Best Actor Chu were having a meal together...”

Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and his lips curled into a meaningful smile. He looked at the backs of the two people hugging and sneered.

Interesting.

They walked to the parking lot, but the reporters didn’t follow.

Xu Qingzhi stopped beside her car.

“That’s enough. The reporters aren’t following us.”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes but didn’t move.

“You’re being sarcastic. What do you want to say?... No matter what you want to say, Xu Qingzhi, you’d better recognize your current status. Whether it’s the young mistress of the Li family or my wife, I can’t afford to lose face by having such a scandal with the Best Actor!”

Xu Qingzhi stood there in silence for a long time. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again. She turned slightly from his embrace and looked up at the man beside her who had a cold expression on his face.

“The Li family’s face is their face, and so is yours. With my face, Xu Qingzhi is nothing. She deserves to be stepped on by you.”

After saying that, she sneered and said, “But indeed, I’ve thrown my face at you from the start...”

Her words reminded Limo of what she had said to him a few days ago. Anger surged in his heart. Every time she said something, it made sense. Was he being unreasonable and looking for trouble?

“It seems like you do know your limits in this aspect, but it’s not enough. Xu Qingzhi, since you’re married to me, you have to know that you have to understand and do more than that.”

Li Mo paused and his dark eyes widened. His gaze was like a tight chain that locked onto him.

She thought that he would push her away almost reflexively the moment she touched him.

Then what about the Li family’s reputation? His reputation? Even hers?

In that case, she would... give up completely.

But she didn’t.

She didn’t dare to look at his face or face everything she imagined.

Now...

After a few seconds of indifference, she slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze suddenly met Li Mo’s dark eyes. She paused for a moment before lowering her toes and slowly moving away.

She lowered her head and tucked her hair behind her ear.

“Are these okay?”

She clenched her fists tightly. “For the sake of your reputation, you suddenly returned and acted as a loving couple with me. Is that really okay?”

Li Mo’s eyes flickered and a bone-chilling coldness emanated from his body.

“So...” He reached out and gently brushed his lips with his fingers, as if to wipe away the traces of Xu Qingzhi’s kiss.

“How unwilling are you to do this?”

Xu Qingzhi smiled sarcastically at his words.

“I’m willing and not aggrieved.”

She said coldly as she looked behind Li Mo.

“My dignity is indeed not worth mentioning. Everyone knows that I’m a despicable woman who will do anything to get married. Her future is bright and glorious. It’s too unfair for her to be involved with a woman like me.”

Li Mo’s eyes darkened visibly.

That was why she suddenly pounced on her and kissed her.

It wasn’t for the Li family, him, or herself. It was for the so-called international Best Actor with a bright future.

“Ha.”

He suddenly sneered. “So you’re willing to do anything for him?”

Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips and said, “I just don’t want to implicate innocent people.”

“He’s innocent, so I deserve it?”

Xu Qingzhi’s heart skipped a beat and her eyes trembled uncontrollably.

She stared at him and suddenly laughed. “Limo, don’t forget that the child in my stomach is yours.”

Li Mo sneered and the coldness on his body intensified. “Yan Ze, if it were another man, would you marry them too?”
