448 Take It to Heart
After Mo Rao took a breather outside the dining room, she felt much soberer.
She returned to the private room and was about to continue eating when there was a knock on the door.
“Please come in,” Shen Ke called out to the door.
Then, Gu Hai pushed the door open and entered. He smiled politely at the surprised people in the private room.
“Good evening, everyone. President Fu sent me to bring Miss Mo back,” Gu Hai said.
“President Fu sent you?” Shen Jia looked at Gu Hai in disbelief.
Could it be that because of the recordings and photos she had sent just now, Fu Ying couldn’t wait to pick Mo Rao up? Was Fu Ying that protective of Mo Rao? Or was he jealous?
Mo Rao looked at Gu Hai in confusion. “How did Fu Ying know that I was here?”
Gu Hai glanced at Shen Jia and said, “You will have to ask Miss Shen.”
Everyone’s gazes were fixed on Shen Jia.
Shen Jia still looked very calm as she smiled and said, “I just sent a few photos to Fu Ying and told him that I was eating with Mo Rao. I don’t know why he suddenly came to pick Miss Mo up.”
“Tsk, Fu Ying is really too much. Miss Mo is already his ex-wife, but he still cares so much about her.” Shen Zhen couldn’t help but roll his eyes, but Shen Jia rolled her eyes at him.
Mo Rao didn’t want to socialize here anymore. Since Fu Ying had given her a chance to leave, she might as well take advantage of the situation. She stood up and looked at the three members of the Shen family apologetically. “I’m sorry, since President Fu asked Gu Hai to pick me up, he must have something to tell me. I’ll be leaving now.”
With that, she followed Gu Hai and left the private room without looking back.
Shen Jia stared at Mo Rao’s back angrily and clenched her fists.
She had wanted to provoke Fu Ying and let him see Mo Rao’s true colors, but she didn’t expect to shoot herself in the foot in the end.
Mo Rao followed Gu Hai to the parking lot. After she opened the back door, she saw Fu Ying sitting in the car.
“You’re here too?” Mo Rao was a little surprised.
Fu Ying said calmly, “Are you surprised to see me here?”
“I thought you were still recuperating in the hospital.” Mo Rao couldn’t turn around and leave, so she braced herself and sat beside Fu Ying.
Mo Rao reeked of alcohol, making Fu Ying frown.
“You drank a lot?” Fu Ying asked.
Mo Rao opened the window and rubbed her temples as she replied reluctantly, “Not much.”
The cold wind blew into the car, making Mo Rao feel her cheeks burn.
“Drink less outside. Those people who keep urging you to drink don’t have good intentions,” Fu Ying instructed like a parent.
Mo Rao pursed her lips and ignored him.
Although she didn’t drink much, the alcohol was quite strong. Even the cold wind couldn’t dissipate Mo Rao’s drunkenness.
Since Mo Rao didn’t reply for a long time, Fu Ying turned around and realized that Mo Rao was already asleep. Her little head was nodding like a chick pecking at rice.
Seeing that Mo Rao’s head was about to hit the window, Fu Ying hurriedly reached out to cushion it and gently leaned Mo Rao’s head on his shoulder.
He looked helplessly at Mo Rao, who was sleeping soundly, and then a smile appeared on his lips.
Fortunately, he came to pick Mo Rao up in time. Otherwise, who knew how drunk she would be? Mo Rao might have been taken advantage of by those people.
Mo Rao had already fallen asleep and was sleeping very soundly.
For the first time, she realized that alcohol was also very conducive to sleep.
Fu Ying didn’t return to the hospital. Instead, he brought Mo Rao back to the house they had once stayed in.
When Mo Rao wasn’t around previously, Fu Ying would always return to their small home and try to find traces of her there.
He would lie in Mo Rao’s former room and look at everything in the room longingly. He would wrap himself in the blanket that Mo Rao had covered herself in. It felt as if Mo Rao was hugging him.
Fu Ying didn’t know when he had become so obsessed with Mo Rao. He was obsessed with every inch of her skin and every breath.
The next day, when Mo Rao slowly opened her eyes, she was shocked by what she saw.
Wasn’t this the room she had once stayed in?! Why was it exactly the same as before?
