It was already twelve o'clock. Lin Mo went back to her bedroom and didn't continue doing the questions.
Instead, she lay on the bed, her peach blossom eyes fixed on the ceiling.
She wondered which area Zhao Ziling was living in now.
How long it would take her to get home.
Her domineering husband's tone was too overbearing.
If she heard such overbearing words, she would just slap him!
Lin Mo thought Zhao Ziling's current marital status was very unhealthy.
But after all, it wasn't her marriage.
Even if she was her best friend, she couldn't interfere in her marriage.
After thinking for a while, she sent Zhao Ziling a WeChat message.
[Let me know when you get home.]
Then she threw her phone aside, turned off the light, tilted her head, and fell into a deep sleep.
She didn't see that the light in the downstairs living room was on for a long time that night.
Nor did she see that in the deepest part of the night.
A tall and straight man knelt on one knee beside her bed.
He lowered his head and kissed her fair instep.
Just let him be perverted one more time.
This would be the last time.
The kiss was so fleeting that he could hardly feel the warmth of her instep, only a charming fragrance.
He tried his best to control the impulse to do more.
The man with a pair of deep and gloomy eyes stood up.
He stared at the girl's clear and fair face for a long, long time...
Until dawn was breaking.
The handsome and cold - looking man took one last greedy look.
The moment he turned to leave.
A tear hung in the air and fell on the carpet beside the bed, leaving a moist mark.
Lin Mo still got up early to go to school the next day.
After washing up, she came downstairs and found the butler wearing a suit and a bow tie downstairs.
She was a bit surprised. "Uncle Butler, why did you come to work so early today?"
The butler smiled and said, "Sir is on a business trip today, so I have to come earlier."
Lin Mo was a bit stunned for a moment. "Ah? Xie Guanyan is on a business trip? Where did he go? Is his hand fully recovered?"
This big shot really didn't take his body seriously for the sake of making money.
And it was so sudden.
She didn't hear him mention it last night when she saw him.
The butler replied, "He went to Europe and will be away for some time. As for his hand, it should be okay. By the way, I'm planning to arrange two maids to live in the house during this period. Is that okay?"
Lin Mo blinked her eyes. "Of course it's okay. I'm going to school first."
After all, this wasn't her house. Whether to let the maids live in was up to Xie Guanyan to decide.
She didn't have the right to comment.
She didn't even have the right to know when he was going on a business trip.
The driver had already driven the car with Shen Ji'an waiting outside the villa.
Lin Mo got in the car. Shen Ji'an handed her breakfast, a bowl of three - fresh rice noodles.
"Sis, eat it while it's hot."
The so - called "Buddha of the Beijing Circle" arranged a high - end business car to take them to school.
The back seat was very spacious.
You could even eat hot pot and slurp noodles in the car.
Lin Mo looked at the steaming rice noodles.
Although she didn't have supper last night, she suddenly had no appetite this morning.
Why didn't Xie Guanyan tell her that he was going on a business trip today?
Thinking like this, the next second she thought again.
No, who was she?
Why should Xie Guanyan tell her?
She was just a tenant!
Noticing that Lin Mo was in a bit of a strange mood, Shen Ji'an frowned under his long bangs and asked, "Sis, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing her fourth brother's question, Lin Mo looked up and smiled. "It's okay. Let's eat together."
When they arrived at school, Lin Mo didn't have time to think about Xie Guanyan.
It was time to study.
Moreover, Lin Mo could feel that many people in the class were secretly looking at her all morning.
Their looks were various.
Even students from other classes and other grades came to look at her during the break.
It was as if she was a monkey.
Shen Ji'an was so angry that he clenched his fists and wanted to beat someone up, but was stopped by Lin Mo.
There were too many of them. He simply couldn't beat them all.
It was noon.
Shen Ji'an said, "Sis, let me treat you to a meal outside. The food in the school cafeteria is terrible."
Lin Mo of course knew that Shen Ji'an was afraid that more people would look at her in the cafeteria.
But she wasn't afraid.
"Who says the food in the cafeteria is bad?"
Except for the innovative dishes made by the aunts in the No. 1 Middle School cafeteria, the rest was still okay.
Sure enough, many people in the cafeteria were stealing glances at Lin Mo, and some even talked loudly.
"How dare she come to the cafeteria to eat. This old woman has such a thick skin!"
"The last - ranked student in our school woke up and her ranking went up. Hahaha!"
"I heard that there's Shen Yihan behind her, that so - called 'Buddha of the Beijing Circle'. Tsk, tsk, we don't know what their relationship is!"
As soon as Shen Jing entered the cafeteria and heard these comments, a smile flashed across her eyes.
She stopped Zhao Zixin after class, and the two came to the cafeteria together.
Hearing these comments, Zhao Zixin frowned tightly.
Shen Jing glanced at her, and the smile in her eyes widened.
She also hated Lin Mo, right?
Who would like this 29 - year - old old hag?
She rolled her eyes, thinking about how to make Zhao Zixin hate Lin Mo even more!
Here, Lin Mo was having her meal and didn't hear what others were saying at all.
Because she had no intention of listening.
Zhao Ziling didn't reply to the message she sent last night.
She thought Zhao Ziling might have forgotten.
So as soon as she sat down to eat, she sent her another WeChat message.
[Are you up?]
Five minutes passed, and there was still no reply.
No way, was he so tired from working all night that he couldn't even keep his eyes open?
Or, had something happened to Zhao Ziling?
