"Of course, you can."
Tong Mo nodded with pride.
Then Li Zijue personally got out of the car to open the door for her and invited her inside.
It wasn’t until Tong Mo sat down that she remembered the man had clearly gone to work this morning, so she couldn’t help asking, "How do you have time to come back, weren’t you off to the company?"
"I remembered you had to go to school, so I made time to come back and drive you," Li Zijue said.
Although he mentioned it casually, in reality, he had turned down a project worth over a billion just to make it in time to drive her.
Upon hearing the man’s words, Tong Mo felt sweet inside, but she pouted and said, "I could have taken a taxi to school."
"It’s not safe for a girl to take a taxi alone," Li Zijue said while driving.
Tong Mo felt even sweeter inside.
Her beautiful phoenix eyes looked at the man’s handsome and mature face, and after a moment of contemplation, she said, "Li Da, I will break off the engagement with Young Master Li as quickly as possible!"
She was clear about her feelings; she liked him, and she definitely wouldn’t marry someone like Young Master Li.
"I...," Li Zijue started to reveal his identity when the young girl interrupted him again.
"Wait until the birthday banquet of Mrs. Li in three days. Young Master Li will surely attend; I’ll discuss our matter with him," Tong Mo had made up her mind.
Hearing this, Li Zijue swallowed the words he’d been about to say and tentatively asked, "What if Young Master Li doesn’t want to break the engagement?"
"How could that be possible!" Tong Mo shook her head without thinking and pointed at herself, saying, "For an at most average-looking girl like me, Young Master Li must have seen thousands, if not tens of thousands; how could he possibly cling to the marriage contract."
Tong Mo certainly didn’t think Young Master Li was such a superficial person!
"What if he just wants to cling to it?" Li Zijue asked again.
After stroking her chin for a moment, Tong Mo said decisively, "Then I’ll just tell him straight he’s been cuckolded, that I’m already with you!"
She couldn’t believe that Young Master Li would still accept her if she did that!
By then, Viscount Li was almost at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Didn’t this mean he had cuckolded himself?
"What’s with that expression?" Tong Mo felt that Viscount Li seemed a bit unusually strange today, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on what exactly was peculiar.
Li Zijue shook his head, "It’s nothing."
"Momo, actually I..."
Just as Li Zijue was about to reveal his true identity once again, the young girl cut him off.
"Don’t talk for now; hurry and open the car door, if I don’t leave now, I’ll be late," Tong Mo was urgently rushing him at that moment.
Li Zijue quickly unlocked the car, calling out to her retreating figure, "Momo, actually I have something very important to tell you."
"Even if it’s something incredibly important, wait until after my class is over to tell me!" Tong Mo was in a hurry to get to the classroom, fearing being scolded by the professor for being late; she had no time to listen to him chat and ran off after responding.
When she arrived at the classroom, the class hadn’t started yet.
Tong Mo exhaled in relief.
Heaven knows how strict this professor is, any student who is late or misses class, regardless of gender, has to do push-ups in the front.
Just as she was about to find a seat to sit down, Tong Nian came over curiously and asked, "Sis, I heard you’re not staying in the dorms, so where are you staying at night?"
