awkward

Chen Mo's heart softened for a moment that day, and he said something casually, but he didn't expect the other party to take it so seriously.

The girl began to run to the company door every now and then to wait for him to get off work. On weekends, she actively asked him out for dinner and movies, and would bring him supper every time she worked overtime.

Of course, except for the time when he cried in the car, he never accepted any date or kindness from Song Jia.

After a long time, he unconsciously escaped. He would drive away from the underground garage after work. On weekends, he would deliberately go to the company to work overtime or go to a friend’s house as a guest, in order not to let himself have any free opportunities and refuse all kinds of things. date.

Song Jia could also sense it, but she didn't stop walking, she still insisted on going her own way, and even became crazier, and once even stayed in front of his house until one o'clock in the morning.

In the end, Chen Mo couldn't take it any longer, and took advantage of the lunch break with Ye Mu to make a cold face, "Hey, help me find a way."

Ye Mu was eating the rice there, thinking it was funny, "She's a pretty good girl, why can't you accept it?"

Chen Mo pursed his lips, and said with a straight fair and handsome face, "Since you think it's good, I'll let you."

Ye Mu was helpless, with a sigh in his tone, "You know I can't do it."

Chen Mo squinted at him, "Whoever stipulates that gay guys can't fall in love with girls. I don't believe you were born like this."

Ye Mu continued to eat rice, "It's true that it's not natural, but it's hard to go back."

Chen Mo snorted coldly, his expression worried, "If you want me to say that you are making excuses."

Ye Mu pursed his lips, his expression dull, "What about you, if it were you, would you be willing to consider falling in love with me?"

Chen Mo paused, and after a few seconds, he put on a look of contempt and disgust, "It's too late for me to be disgusted, how could I be with a gay guy."

Ye Mu was used to his constant complaints, so he didn't get too angry, "So in the same way, you should also think that I'm not making excuses, some things can't be forced."

Chen Mo was indifferent, smirking at Zhang Jun's face, "Whatever you say, you can't escape this matter."

Ye Mu also had nothing to do, and looked up at the time, "It's not too late to talk about this matter in the future, it's getting late, we can start first, and we have to go to Song Shi Group to sign the IPO project contract later."

Chen Mo felt that he might have been tortured too much, as long as he heard this Song character, he would feel a little headache, and couldn't help frowning and pinching the center of his brows.

Ye Mu didn't pay much attention to him, he went out and prepared the materials by himself, then went downstairs and drove the car to the entrance of the company.

Although Chen Mo was unwilling in his heart, he also knew the importance of this business. After another meeting, he got up and went downstairs, opened the car door and sat in with a dark face.

The agreed time was one o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still 5 minutes left when the two arrived there. The secretary welcomed them to the conference room, "Mr. Chen, please sit here for a while. Our Mr. Song said he will be there soon."

Chen Mo nodded in response, his face was indifferent, his expression was like an iceberg.

The secretary didn't say much, and thoughtfully poured them a cup of tea before leaving.

Ye Mu glanced sideways at Chen Mo, shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Relax, I'm not seeing my father-in-law now."

With a stiff face, Chen Mo raised his hand and placed the phone screen in front of him.

Ye Mu glanced and found that it was a text message.

——Chen Mo, I heard that you are coming to my dad's company today. Wait for me and bring you delicious food.

After reading, he smiled, and couldn't help pursing his lips and said, "I just want to see you, don't be so nervous."

Chen Mo narrowed his eyes in displeasure, feeling a little irritated, "If she keeps going on like this, I will almost have a rejection reaction to women."

Ye Muwan, "It's not as serious as you said, maybe it's just a whim, and it will fade after a while."

Chen Mo frowned, even his tone was cold, "I don't think so."

Ye Mu slowed down his tone and said, "Recently, there is a big client in the UK. If you want, you can go on a business trip with me, just to avoid the limelight."

Chen Mo hummed in a low voice, with the same expression on his face that no one should enter.

Ye Mu didn't try to persuade him anymore, he picked up the teacup and drank hot tea.

Within a few minutes, the old man Song arrived in a hurry, and he did not forget to lead his precious girl into the office with his face full of joy. Although it was the first time he met Chen Mo, he seemed to regard him as his son-in-law, " Chen Mo, the boy is quite handsome, no wonder my daughter will fall in love with you."

As he spoke, he patted Chen Mo on the shoulder like an elder, with a familiar and warm attitude.

Chen Mo frowned, unable to adapt, his face was cold, and he didn't speak.

Old man Song didn't mind either, and enthusiastically pushed Song Jia to his side, and said with a smile, "Look, the two of you standing together really look like a man and a woman."

"Dad~" The girl was a little embarrassed.

Old man Song smiled very happily, "Don't, we are all our own people, so there is nothing to be shy about."

Song Jia quickly waved her hands, "No, he hasn't agreed to associate with me yet."

The old man Song comforted, "Hurry up, my daughter is so beautiful, which man would not like it."

Although he said this to his daughter, it was nothing more than telling Chen Mo to tell him not to know good from bad.

Chen Mo also held his breath quite calmly, he didn't say it directly to save face, and just kept silent there with a gloomy face.Although he didn't speak, it was also used to tell the surname Song that he didn't like his daughter, and it was up to him to sign the contract or not.

That old man Song is also quite familiar with the world, looking at Chen Mo's lukewarm attitude, he knew what was going on, but he didn't force it. Hope that's how it's done.

Chen Mo looked at him, turned his gaze away indifferently, and didn't want to take the initiative to step on it. His thin lips were tightly pursed, revealing a kind of sharpness like the edge of a sword.

Ye Mu knew that the two were competing with each other, but he had a lot of scruples and coughed and said: "Mr. Song, our Mr. Chen is not in good health today, and it is not convenient to talk. If you can, please sit down first, and I will talk to you." Let’s talk about the signing of the IPO contract.”

The old man Song had been cooperating with Ye Mu for quite a long time, and he was embarrassed to be cold-faced after seeing what he said, and sat down as he said.

Ye Mu didn't say any more polite words, and directly talked about business.The two talked for a long time, the specific steps, the feasibility and profitability of the plan, and the relevant share, took about an hour.

Old man Song carefully read the contract again, and without further embarrassment, he signed it with a flick of a pen.

Chen Mo didn't say a word the whole time, and after he signed the paper, he left without even saying hello.

This is still not in line with the rules and etiquette, Ye Mu sighed, his thin lips parted slightly, and he could only apologize there, "Mr. Song, I'm really sorry."

The old man Song smiled, his heart was broad and fat, "It's okay, young people, you should, and besides, this kind of thing can't be forced."

Ye Mu lowered his eyes and said lightly, "No matter what, thank you for giving us this opportunity this time."

Old man Song shook his head, "It's just for your sake, when you were with Yan Chen, you also helped me a lot in the LOTTO company both openly and secretly."

When mentioning the past, Ye Mu couldn't help but dim his eyes, but it disappeared for a moment, and smiled slightly: "President Song is serious, it's all my job."

"Just tell the truth, don't be polite." Old man Song pursed his lips, pondered for a while, and said, "However, there is something I have to tell you in advance."

Ye Mu looked at him with an inexplicably bad premonition in his heart.

Old man Song squeezed the agate stone in his hand, and said in a deep and slow voice: "LOTTO is not satisfied with the cooperation between our two companies, so they made a special phone call and threatened to use government relations to obstruct the progress of the project. I can't bear it. , It is estimated that a supplementary agreement will be signed with them in a few days, allowing them to participate in assisting the IPO."

After Ye Mu heard this, his face was a little ugly, but he couldn't help it if he didn't have the power, "I know."

Old man Song nodded slightly, "That's good. After all, you have worked in both companies, and you will be more experienced in handling them than others."

Ye Mu gave a perfunctory "um", and didn't say any more after that.

Old man Song is also a shrewd person, knowing that he has a thorn in his heart, he will not keep him anymore, "Then let's do this for today, and I will contact you later if there is anything else."

Ye Mu nodded, said goodbye briefly, and left, but his complexion suddenly became heavy, and his long dark eyelashes cast a gloomy shadow on his eyelids.

He really didn't want to have anything to do with that person again...

Leaving aside the unpleasantness of the conversation here, the two on the other side were not much better.

Song Jia followed after Chen Mo left. Although Chen Mo walked fast, he couldn't get rid of her no matter what.

Because they came by Ye Mu's car at the beginning, so they could only stand in the parking lot of the underground garage and wait in the end.

Song Jia chased him all the way, and the two stood together in a small space, looking at each other speechlessly.

The girl stared at the man in front of her for a long time, and finally summoned up the courage she had had for many days.

"Chen Mo, do you know, I, I like you so much." She confessed, although it was a few simple words, it seemed that it took a lifetime of effort.

Chen Mo leaned sideways on the car, not looking at her with downcast eyes, his handsome face was paralyzed.

After a long time, he said without any emotion in his voice: "Well, I like me too."

This sentence sounds harmless on the surface, but it is also tantamount to a cruel rejection.

Song Jia lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, bit her lips heavily, "What do you dislike about me, just tell me, and I will definitely change."

Chen Mo looked at the ground expressionlessly, his profile showed a little lifelessness, and asked back: "Whatever you like about me, I will definitely change."

Song Jia was very sad, "I don't want to live alone anymore, so you should just accompany me."

Chen Mo didn't speak. He was silent for a moment, moved his lips, and said in a deep and magnetic voice: "My brother Ye Mu is very good, you can think about him."

Song Jia looked at him, her eyes were slightly red, and her tears couldn't stop flowing, "Won't your heart ache when I'm with him?"

Chen Mo's thin eyelids drooped, his face was stern and handsome, and his thin lips spoke slightly, "No."

The corners of Song Jia's lips twitched slightly, but she still didn't want to give up, she took out the last trick and started crying, "Why can't you agree to date me?"

Chen Mo's expression was cold, "Because I don't feel it."

Song Jia broke the casserole and asked, "Why don't you feel it?"

Chen Mo pursed his thin lips tightly, and his slender phoenix eyes showed indifference, "I don't know."

Song Jia's makeup was all over when she was crying, "I don't know what, you must know, but you just won't tell me."

After that, he started to cry again, and the sobbing sound was terrible.

Chen Mo had a terrible headache, and only asked her to stop arguing. After a long time, he finally couldn't help making up a reason, and said with thin lips, "Actually, I'm crooked."

Song Jia's expression froze for a moment, her eyes dimmed with tears, "When did you bend?"

Chen Mo remained expressionless, silent for a long time, his thin lips slightly parted, "I was frightened by your confession."

Song Jia: "..."

fuck it!
