"Xu Mo, thank you for sending me back today." Back home, You Ran hurriedly dried her damp hair, picked up her phone after finishing everything, and dialed Xu Mo's number.

"It's just a matter of raising your hand, you don't have to be so polite with me. Besides, it's raining so heavily, I don't want the little girl to become a wet stray cat."

"Hahahahaha, your metaphors are always so cute... By the way, next Monday's filming will trouble you even more. The program team has found a partner for you, and you may need to communicate with them in advance."

"Well, no problem." Xu Mo smiled gently, "I just don't know if the partner you mentioned is willing to share the stage with me. After all... I sometimes talk to people other than you. ...very sharp." He deliberately elongated the "other than you", as if he could see the face of the little girl on the opposite side was a little red again.

"You don't have to worry! She said that she admires Professor Xu Mo very much and would like to share the stage with you!"

"Oh? You admire me? Are you my student?"

"Xu Mo, you are too modest. There are many people who admire you in the world, not just your students. This guest was also introduced by a member of the program team. Her name is Margaret, and she is... .”

The brain suddenly buzzed, and large snowflakes fell rapidly, covering all thoughts.Youran was still talking to Xu Mo endlessly, but he couldn't listen to a single word.

Xu Mo himself didn't realize that he had been silent for a long time.It was too long to call him leisurely, "Xu Mo Xu Mo, are you listening?"

"Sorry...you said just now that her name is Margaret?" Xu Mo's tone was a little low, but Youran didn't seem to notice it.

"Yeah! She seems to be willing to reveal her English name only. It's called Marg...Margaery? Because I can't pronounce it well, she just said it is a bit awkward, so just call me Margaery."

"..."

"Xu Mo? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I got it. Youran, I have a call coming in from here, I'll call you back later."

"Well... that's fine."

"Well, let's do this first."

Hastily hung up the phone.It was never Xu Mo's usual style to reveal the anxiety that was eager to cover up, at least in front of You Ran, he always acted as if he could do his job with ease, today was an exception.

But the reason for this exception was clear to him, it was an "accident" that was difficult to conceal and control.So Xu Mo immediately stood up, put on a black windbreaker, picked up the car keys on the coffee table, and hurried out the door.

The original 10-[-]-minute drive took Xu Mo only [-] or [-] minutes to arrive. While waiting for the red light, his fingers tapped the steering wheel countless times. As soon as the green light came on, he kicked the accelerator and rushed out. .

He was irritable, anxious, and eager to rush to the BS building to question all of this.

"You came very quickly, Ares." He was still the man sitting with his back to the door and facing the floor-to-ceiling windows. While turning the jade finger on his thumb, he greeted Xu Mo who broke into the door in a playful tone.

"What do you mean?" Xu Mo's tone was as frosty as a hundred years old, straightforward.

"What do you mean? Hahahaha." The man turned the swivel chair around, tapped the handle of the swivel chair, and said, "Ares, your movements are too slow. If you complete the task at half the speed of what you rushed over today, the organization doesn't have to give it to you." Call in a helper."

"I have my own plan, I don't need any help."

"Don't say that." The man smiled unabated, "President Huarui and the members of the task force are watching more and more closely. If you are a golden boy and a jade girl, with her to help you, I believe that your task will be completed soon."

Xu Mo stopped talking, he knew that any verbal resistance at this time would be unwise.After a while, he snorted coldly, then turned and walked to the door.But before leaving, she still stopped: "I'll put my words here first. If she gets hurt in any way because of this incident, I can't guarantee what she will do."

"Don't worry, Margaery is also father's child, she is better than you think."

Walking out of the BS building, the air is humid.The raindrops gently swept Xu Mo's body.As he walked, he raised his head inadvertently, and heaved a long sigh, and the white mist rose in the cold night sky.Glancing at his watch, he pointed out that it had stopped at exactly 12:10 midnight.The streets in the cold night are colder, with few vehicles passing by, and even less pedestrians.With the sound of rustling footsteps, with hands in pockets, I gradually walked to the bus station where there were no more trains to stop.

He stopped, and then spoke slowly, as if he was talking to himself, his voice was gentle and soft with some unclear emotion: "Are you going to follow behind all the time, won't you come out?"

The shadow behind him shook for a moment, and then a slim and graceful figure walked out from the corner of the wall, shrugging his shoulders, "I was discovered by you again."

"When did you run out of the house? Didn't you tell me?"

"When did you get into such a bad habit?" The girl didn't answer directly, but she laughed, her eyes curved like some kind of small animal.

From nowhere, he started smoking when he was depressed.

She stretched out her hand through the smoke ring that Xu Mo spit out, gently took the cigarette held between his fingertips, and threw a beautiful arc in the air, the just lit cigarette butt sighed in the dense rain. After a wisp of blue smoke went out.

"You know, I don't want you to get involved in this matter."

"I know." She raised her eyes, blinked her eyes, and immediately held Xu Mo's cheeks, "But my brother has been away from me for so long, I don't know what happened to him, and he didn't take the initiative either. Tell me. Do you think he is cunning? I'll have to see for myself."

"Margaery..."

"Ares," she looked straight into Xu Mo's eyes, without any sign of backing down, but there was still a pool of spring water in her eyes, "Do you still think that I will disrupt your plan? Or...you put I also regarded it as a spy sent by the organization? Huh?" Xu Mo didn't know how to answer the question raised with a smile.It should and should not, should not and should not.In such a situation, Xu Mo consciously bowed down.

The conversation lasted only 5 minutes.

She held the long-handled umbrella that Xu Mo had forced for her in one hand, and spread five fingers in the other hand, waving towards Xu Mo in the air as lightly as a child, then turned and walked away stepping on the water.

Looking at her slender back gradually submerged in the night, Xu Mo frowned.

"I still have nothing to do with her." He sighed, and began to question himself why he couldn't do anything with her when he was a child, and he still can't do anything now.

Perhaps this question is not without an answer: he thought that in front of other people, he could be Xu Mo, who could solve everything with ease and grace; but in front of her, he would always be Ares, even taking out Xu Mo's A trace of a gentleman like jade, and a bright wind and a bright moon, are all like tricks that she can see through at a glance.

It was her who knew him too well.It is also because of her that there is another side of Ares.
