Chapter 14 Determination to Leave

Su Mo was shocked when she heard Lan Fengchen's voice. Remembering that she had indeed left for a long time, she felt a little apologetic in her heart. "Mr. Lan, I'm sorry. I happened to meet a friend and we chatted for a while." Lan Fengchen smiled and said in an understanding manner, "I saw that you have gone for so long. I came to find you because I was worried about you. I didn't disturb you from reminiscing with your friend, did I?" Su Mo shook her head and looked at Lin Jinyao with eyes full of reluctance. When her gaze fell on his arm, she felt a slight pain in her heart. She never thought that Brother Jin, who doted on her, would belong to someone else. This feeling was really bad. Six years ago, she wanted to ask him why two people who loved each other could not be together. But now, it was completely meaningless. Su Mo forced a smile and said, "Brother Jin, I am really happy to see you again. I have a friend waiting for me. I will go first. Goodbye!" Before they left, she couldn't help but glance at Lin Jinyao and Meng Xiaoyun again before turning to Lan Fengchen and saying, "I'm done talking. Let's go!" Lan Fengchen nodded. He saw that Lin Jinyao's lips moved. It was obvious that Lin Jinyao still had something to say. However, Su Mo had already turned around and left, so Lan Fengchen had no choice but to follow. He pondered in his heart., "Didn't Young Master Lu say that this girl already had a keeper?" "Could it be that after the keeper left, the pet would find a new lover?" As he was thinking of the person that Lu Shaoqing mentioned, the corners of Lan Fengchen's lips slowly curved up. He had seen Su Mo crying when she turned around and left. It seemed that she had a deep relationship with this "Brother Jin"! He couldn't eat this meal anymore. When they got back, Lan Fengchen asked the waiter to bring the bill. After leaving the restaurant, Su Mo apologized to him with red eyes. "Sorry, I haven't returned home from abroad for many years. I didn't expect to meet my old friend here." Lan Fengchen didn’t really care about it and he made a gentlemanly gesture, "Where are you going? I'll send you there." Su Mo wanted to refuse, but then she heard Lan Fengchen say, "You are Shaoqi's friend. If she finds out that I left you in the restaurant and left by myself, she will definitely be angry with me later." Su Mo's heart was a mess, so she did not insist on refusing him. Along the way, she looked like her mind was unhinged. Lan Fengchen sent her to the hotel. She thanked him and got out of the car. After she entered the elevator, her tears silently flowed down. She wiped them with the back of her hands, but the more she wiped, the more she cried. She just could not stop. Back in the room, the exhausted girl fell to the floor and looked at the ceiling with a pair of dull eyes. In fact, she did not feel much sadness in her heart. No matter how difficult the day was, she had already gone through it. She just felt a little wronged. Perhaps there were some regrets. She couldn't explain more. In short, she felt very depressed. It was as if her heart was blocked by a ball of cotton, making her unable to breathe. She had always thought that she and Lin Jinyao loved each other so much. Even if she had been alone for the past few years, she had never forgotten about this person. In the past ten years, he was not only the person she liked but also her family. So seeing him with Meng Xiaoyun today was still a big blow to her. What troubled her the most was Lin Jinyao's words, "Should I know you?" This was more hurtful than any words. She thought that perhaps he had really made up his mind to forget her! When the phone in the room rang, Su Mo remembered that she had forgotten to charge her mobile phone since yesterday. The phone was called by Lu Shaoqi. The purpose was naturally to listen to how Su Mo felt about Lan Fengchen. "Su Mo, is this boyfriend I introduced to you handsome enough?" The person on the other side of the line said excitedly, but she found that the other party did not respond. Having been friends for so many years, Lu Shaoqi would never think that Su Mo was silent because she was shy. Lu Shaoqi realized that something was wrong and asked her, "Su Mo, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell?" It was rare for Miss Lu to be so gentle. Hearing her concern, Su Mo finally could not help but cry out. She cried so hard that the person on the other side of the line was frightened and said to her, "Don't just cry! What happened? Did someone bully you?" Su Mo kept crying and did not speak. Miss Lu had a bad temper and soon became impatient. She scolded, "Did Lan Fengchen bully you? This bastard, does he think he is so great because he is handsome? I will go and settle the score with him!" "No, he didn't bully me." Although Su Mo felt very uncomfortable in her heart, her mind was still clear. She felt very good about Lan Fengchen and didn't want to implicate him. She just had other things on her mind. She had just come back this time for a few short days, but her life here was full of the bad experience. She was suspecting that coming back this time was the wrong decision. Especially after seeing Lin Jinyao today, she was even more certain that she should not have come back. Now she just wanted to leave this place. "Little Qi, I want to go back to France." Although Lu Shaoqi did not know what had happened to Su Mo, she could tell that Su Mo had really made up her mind this time. After a moment of silence, Lu Shaoqi asked, "When do you want to leave?" Being considerate at this moment, Miss Lu knew that it was not suitable to ask Su Mo for a reason. This made Su Mo very touched. Su Mo put her arm on her eyes to cover the dazzling light. Her lips moved and she choked, "The sooner, the better." "Okay, leave this to me. Remember to turn on your mobile phone. I'll call you when I'm done." Lu Shaoqi hung up the phone. Her car made a sudden turn on the road. She had wanted to find Su Mo for dinner, but now it seemed that she had to go home first. Miss Lu's efficiency was still very high. She used some unknown methods, and then after only one night, she called Su Mo to get up and pack up. "The helicopter is ready. I will pick you up at the hotel at nine o'clock." Su Mo was sleeping soundly. She only woke up a little after receiving the call, so she got up to pack up. Although she still had many questions, such as why Lin Jinyao said those words. Now, her heart was very fragile, and she did not want to face this city that brought her too many memories. She thought to herself, "Please forgive me for choosing to escape again." She felt lightheaded for the past two days. She felt that her brain was not working. When Su Mo packed her luggage and went out, she looked at her mobile phone. It was only eight o'clock. She and Lu Shaoqi had agreed to meet at the entrance of the hotel at nine o'clock. It was still early. Perhaps because she was in a hurry to leave this place, she did not have the mood to go to the restaurant for breakfast. She directly went downstairs to the front desk to check out. The phone screen lit up. It was a text message from Lu Shaoqi. [Did you get up? I am ready to go out.] Su Mo immediately replied to her, [Yes. Drive carefully on the road!] After sending the message, Su Mo opened the address book on the mobile phone. There were only three numbers in it. Lu Shaoqi, Xiao Nanye, and Lin Jinyao. She was familiar with the last number, but in the past six years, she never dared to call it. [Brother Jin, I'm leaving. I'm afraid we will never meet again this time! Please forgive me for being willful for the last time. I don't want to bless you!] Su Mo felt that she must have gone crazy after sending this message for some reason. She stood alone at the entrance of the hotel with her luggage. She looked at her mobile phone every few minutes. She didn't know if she was waiting for the call or looking at the time, but she felt that today's time was particularly slow. At the corner of the street outside the hotel, a black luxury car was parked. The car had parked here a long time ago. The person inside did not get out of the car but looked at the hotel opposite through the window. At the entrance of the hotel, Su Mo was still waiting for a person out of boredom. It was a little cold in the early autumn. Today, she wore a loose beige sweater and a pair of light-colored jeans. On the white canvas shoes, there was a picture of a Mickey Mouse. Her face was white and clean without any makeup, and she looked like a student. Her hair was very beautiful. Her long hair hung down, blocking half of her face. She stood by the side of the road, kicking the stones at her feet with her head down. She glanced at her mobile phone from time to time and looked at the intersection from time to time. She seemed to be waiting for someone. No matter how slow the time passed, it would eventually reach the end. It was already nine o'clock. Lu Shaoqi still hadn't arrived. Su Mo didn't call her to hurry her. She just looked up at the sky. She didn't know what she was thinking. The mobile phone in her pocket vibrated. Su Mo thought it was Lu Shaoqi. She took it out and looked at it. The name jumping on the screen surprised her, but she felt more panicked. Her hands froze for a few seconds, then she immediately hung up the phone. The call was from Xiao Nanye. If he had not called, she would have almost forgotten about this person. It was this phone call that caused the memories of that night to surge like a tide. The words that the man said before leaving made her feel afraid. She looked around, hoping that Lu Shaoqi would come quickly. After being hung up, Xiao Nanye was not surprised. He sneered and called her again. This time, the phone was also hung up. Seeing the gloomy expression on the boss's face from the rearview mirror, the driver asked, "Boss, do you want me to invite Miss Su over?" "No need." The corners of Xiao Nanye's mouth curled up. The strange smile on his face made people shudder. He knocked on the windowsill with his fingers. "A disobedient girl should be taught a lesson. Ken, drive the car over." "Yes, boss." When the brakes rang out, Su Mo was delighted. When she turned around and saw that it was not Lu Shaoqi's car, she felt a little disappointed. But soon, she couldn't care less about this because she found that the car looked familiar. She had only been back for a few days, and the number of cars she had taken could be counted on one hand. It was easy to imagine what kind of car she found familiar. Soon, she remembered whose car this was. The door to the driver's seat was pushed open, and a man with a stiff face walked out of the car. Su Mo recognized him at a glance. It was the man who followed Xiao Nanye last time. "Miss Su, please get in the car!" Ken came over and wanted to take her luggage. Su Mo hurriedly used her hands to protect her luggage. She thought to herself, "I have just hung up the phone of the beast and his subordinate is already here. How could there be such a coincidence?" "Could it be that the beast installed a monitor on my body, and he knew that I'm going to run away today, so he sent someone to catch me?" She was thinking that no matter how bold Ken was, he would not dare to attack her on the streets. Only then did Su Mo feel a little relieved. She straightened her neck and said to him, "I have nothing to do with your boss. Get out of the way, or I'll call the police!"
