C632 It Ended Before It Even Started
Qiao's eyes lit up when she saw Mo Jue agree to try it.
Although she might not know where this joy came from, she felt that the taste in her heart was especially sweet. It was so sweet that it made people want to eat it.
"Hey, Mr Mo, you eat this." Qiao also sat beside Mo Jue and gave him a pair of chopsticks.
Mo Jue had actually already prepared to go and get the chopsticks, but his movements were a little slow, and the dessert Qiao picked up was already in his mouth.
What should he do? Should he eat or not?
Mo Jue hesitated slightly. He did not want Qiao to be unable to get off the stage, so he turned around and approached the dessert. He opened his mouth and bit the dessert.
In order to prevent Qiao from picking up the dessert again and waiting for him, Mo Jue simply put the entire dessert in his mouth.
Although the dessert was small, it was not easy to chew it.
Qiao watched from the side and said with a smile, "Mr Mo, eat slower, I'll help you with the bite first..."
"No need, no need." Mo Jue hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I like to eat like this."
As he mumbled indistinctly, Mo Jue endured the dry chewing of dessert.
Whether the dessert was delicious or not, he did not taste it. He just felt that the scene in front of him was really fucking awkward.
Qiao sat by the side gently and watched Mo Jue finish eating. She helped him pour some tea in time and said, "Mr Mo, drink some tea smoothly."
"Cough, cough..." Mo Jue did not care about anything else at this moment. He held the teacup and drank it.
After drinking the whole cup of tea, Mo Jue finally tasted the dry and sweet taste in his mouth.
Qiao looked at Mo Jue with anticipation and asked, "Mr Mo, how is it?"
"Hmm?" Mo Jue was stunned for a moment and nodded. "It's delicious. It's delicious."
Qiao blinked and her eyes were a little disappointed. "That's it?"
She thought Mo Jue would say something else. She did not expect Mo Jue to only say "delicious."
Mo Jue opened his mouth. His EQ was not low. At this time, he subconsciously wanted to say something to comfort Qiao. He knew that as long as he said a few words, Qiao would definitely be happy.
However, just as the words were about to pop up, Mo Jue swallowed them back.
Even Dou Ge, that blockhead, could see that Qiao treated him differently. How could he not see it?
Since he had no doubt about Qiao, he naturally did not want to give her any hope or misperception.
After making up his mind, Mo Jue did not say anything else. He just said indifferently, "I don't have much knowledge about dessert. In my eyes, it's enough as long as the food can be eaten."
Qiao was stunned, as if she did not expect to receive such an answer from Mo Jue.
However, Qiao's thoughts were very simple. She did not realize that Mo Jue was trying to distance himself from her. She just nodded seriously and said, "I understand, Mr Mo. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed you at this time. You must be discussing something very important, right? I'm sorry, it's all my fault... "
Mo Jue was stunned. He frowned and said," You don't need to apologize. It's nothing much. We just finished discussing. "
Qiao smiled and her eyes lit up again. She said to Mo Jue, "Mr Mo, you should rest well. I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, she stood up and turned around to walk out.
This made Mo Jue startled.
Just like that? Gone?
So easy to get rid of?
His gaze swept across the dessert that was still on the table. Mo Jue called out to Qiao, "Take these away."
"Put them here first." Qiao turned around and smiled. She said to Mo Jue, "Mr Mo, I don't see any snacks in your room. Put these away first. I will come back tonight and keep them."
"Oh, okay." Mo Jue subconsciously nodded in agreement.
When Qiao walked out, Mo Jue finally realized what had happened.
Something was not right.
If she came over at night to collect... then wouldn't she have to come over at night?
When he thought of this, Mo Jue reached out and rubbed his temples. He could not help but feel a headache.
In his long life, besides being in Dark Department, he had only liked Tali Linna ever since he came out.
The two of them were very similar. They had the feeling of a soul mate. Basically, they did not need to talk much. They could understand each other's meaning with just one look and one action.
Although they were fated to be together, they were destined not to be together in this life. However, the true love that Mo Jue wanted was Tali Linna.
A simple love that could connect one's heart and soul, that could save him a lot of trouble.
But Qiao was different, or it could be said that she and Tali Linna were two extremes.
Tali Linna was straightforward, decisive, and powerful. Qiao was sensitive, simple, and timid.
When you were with Qiao, you had to take care of her feelings. Mo Jue admitted that he was not a person who was good at taking care of people, so there had never been such a person in his friends, regardless of whether they were male or female.
He had accidentally saved Qiao, but she could only be considered as a friend. He did not plan to give the two of them a chance to develop further.
Sighing, Mo Jue looked at the dessert on the table for the last time and raised his hand to give a high-five.
"Young Master Mo."
The guard of Qiao Family who was guarding the door walked in and said respectfully to Mo Jue.
Here, they addressed Mo Jue and Ying as young master Mo and young master Ying. Otherwise, it would be hard to recognize them if there were too many masters.
Mo Jue pointed to the dessert on the table and instructed, "Take this to Qiao's room and tell her that she doesn't need to come to my place."
"Yes."
The guard nodded and did not ask any more questions. He lowered his head and came in. He then left with the dessert in his hand with his head down. He still remembered to close the door.
Mo Jue looked at them and sighed with emotion, "It would be great if those guys from the Dark Department were as easy to manage as the people from the Qiao Family."
It was a pity that the upper echelons were not upright and the lower echelons were crooked. If he, as the leader, was like this, it could be imagined how casual the entire Dark Department was.
When the guards sent the dessert to Qiao's room, Qiao was humming a song as she folded her clothes.
Seeing him come over, she could not help but ask, "Is there something you need from me?"
"This was sent by Young Master Mo. He said that Miss Qiao doesn't need to go to his place."
Qiao was stunned. Seeing the dessert that did not move again, her heart felt a little disappointed. She bit her lips and looked at the guard and asked, "Did Mr Mo really say that?"
"Yes."
The guard nodded and turned around to leave.
Qiao walked to the table and looked at the box of desserts. The sweetness in her heart slowly fermented into a bitter taste, as if it had passed a period of time. After the bitter experience, there was sourness again.
After a while, she only felt that her face was cold. She reached out and wiped her face. She did not know when she started to cry.
"I... Why am I crying?" Qiao was stunned and quickly took a tissue from the table to wipe her tears.
It was just that the tears seemed to have gone out of control. The more she wiped, the more tears she shed.
In the end, Qiao could only throw the tissue and lay on the table in despair. She buried her head in her arms and started to cry in a low voice.
Previously, she only knew that she relied on Mo Jue. Not long ago, in Jian Haixi's room, When she saw Ning Jiwei and Jian Haixi getting along, she was moved for a moment. But very quickly, she suppressed that urge.
She told herself that she only wanted to repay Mo Jue, and purely wanted to treat him well.
So she made those desserts, but at this moment, those desserts were sent back.
Looking at that box of desserts, Qiao could no longer lie to herself and tell herself that she only relied on Mo Jue.
Because the pain and soreness in her heart could not be clearer, it had clearly told her that it was not reliance, but that she fell in love with Mo Jue.
Unfortunately, her feelings were the same as hers, too insignificant and petty.
She knew Mo Jue's feelings for Tali Linna, and also knew how much Tali Linna cared about Mo Jue.
Even if she no longer followed Tali Linna, she still felt unwilling to step between the two of them.
Furthermore, Mo Jue had already told her what he meant.
Qiao sniffed, clenched her fist and pressed it against her chest, and muttered to herself, "Qiao, you have to hide your feelings well. You must not make things difficult for Mr Mo, and you must not betray Eldest Sister."
As she spoke, Qiao's voice could not help but choke.
When it came to relationships, it was despair to be sentenced to death before the start. Furthermore, she had to hide it. She did not even dare to expose it under the sun.
- -
Time went back a little bit. Let's talk about the story of Ning Jiwei and Jian Haixi.
After Ning Jiwei left Mo Jue's room, he went back to find Jian Haixi.
Qiao saw him come over and tactfully left.
Before Jian Haixi could recognize the words Qiao wrote on the back of her hand, she first smelled Ning Jiwei's scent.
So she did not need Qiao to write and said with a smile, Ji Wei, are you back?
Ning Jiwei lowered his head and kissed her forehead, answering with a kiss. Jian Haixi was sure.
After Qiao left, Ning Jiwei pulled Jian Haixi's hand and sat down, then helped her put on the headphones.
Jian Haixi impatiently asked, "Did you guys come to an agreement? What are you going to do? When did you set the time?"
Ning Jiwei held her hand, but did not answer her question." Haixi, is it time for you to take a medicated bath? "
Jian Haixi paused and nodded. "Pretty much. But it doesn't matter if you drag this on for a while. Tell me first..."
"You can't drag it on." Ning Jiwei interrupted her and said, "I will get someone to prepare to go."1
"Ji Wei..." Jian Haixi still wanted to ask more, but Ning Jiwei had already comforted her by rubbing her tightly knitted brows and said, "Don't worry, I will tell you while you take a bath later."
Jian Haixi then let out a sigh of relief. But thinking about it again, she felt that Ning Jiwei's words were very ambiguous.
Fortunately, the festering wound on her face had not healed yet. Even if her face was a little red, Ning Jiwei could not tell.
The medicine bags were prepared in advance by Mi Kai. Ning Jiwei asked someone to put water in the medicine bags, threw the medicine bags in, closed the door, and carried Jian Haixi over.
"I..." Jian Haixi pulled on her clothes tightly and said, "I will do it myself..."
Ning Jiwei smiled and said, "Are you sure? I have something very important to tell you urgently. Are you sure you want to come by yourself? Don't you think you're wasting time?"
Jian Haixi paused for a moment and shyly let go of his hand.
Ning Jiwei's gaze swept across her body. This way, he could see the injuries on Jian Haixi's body more clearly.
He did not dare to look at the pain in his eyes. He quickly peeled it off for her and carried her into the bathtub.
