[Love and Producer] Passive strategy

After reading it calmly, Li Youxue calmly squeezed the note into a ball between her fingers, clutching the small damp paper ball, and finally glanced at the little snowman on the membership card, and then Close the balcony door and return to the living room.

Witnessing the girl's figure disappearing behind the drawn curtains, Xu Mo grasped the edge of the curtains with five fingers and tightened slightly, his deep purple eyes were dull.

The mobile phone placed on the table vibrated suddenly. Xu Mo looked back and saw that the column on the screen that should have displayed the number or remarks was blank and empty, and his expression turned cold sharply.

……

When Li Youxue got off the bus, the snow was still falling.Thin and soft snowflakes fell like elves, and occasionally one or two fell on the top of the head, turning into a little decoration on the black hair.

When the director of the Municipal Orphanage saw her, he immediately smiled brightly: "Miss Li, it's been a long time! Why are you here today? It's snowing so much..."

"It's not New Year's Day, so I came here to bring something for the children." Li Youxue raised the red handbag in her hand, shaking it with a smile. "By the way, I want to chat with you."

The dean was slightly startled, and soon showed a clear smile: "The children are taking a free reading class, please come with me!"

The study room for children with autism is still quiet.When Li Youxue entered, not many children noticed her, which showed how focused they were on reading.

Li Youxue's mood wasn't too good, but she wasn't too bad either. She just smiled, opened the bag she brought, took out the picture album, colored pencils and hardcover books, and piled them on the podium .

Then, according to the dean's suggestion, she took chalk and wrote "Happy New Year's Day, please choose your own gifts" on the blackboard word by word, and walked out the door lightly.

The director of the orphan stood at the door and smiled at her: "If I'm not mistaken, Miss Li came here to ask me the same question as last time, right?"

"You guessed it." Li Youxue nodded generously. "Indeed, I want to ask clearly what happened here 17 years ago."

The dean sighed slightly, glanced at the yard covered with glistening white snow outside the corridor window, and then slowly said, "Miss Li, come with me."

……

director's office.

Putting a cup of steaming tea in front of Li Youxue, the dean sat down opposite her, with a hesitant look on his face: "Miss Li, although I guessed that you would come, I'm still thinking about it." , Should I tell you what happened at that time?"

"... Guessed it earlier?" Li Youxue repeated this worrying word, and doubts arose in her heart.

"Ah, to be precise, it was Xu Mo who told me." The dean was taken aback for a moment, and corrected him a little awkwardly. "Speaking of which, this white tea was also brought by Xu Mo."

Li Youxue looked down in surprise, maybe she was a little concerned, and she realized that there was a faint tea fragrance in the air, and in the white porcelain cup in front of her, the tea soup was orange-yellow and clear, which made people feel uncomfortable. I feel happy when I see you.

"...I see." The forced kiss happened the night before, and upon hearing Xu Mo's name, Li Youxue felt a little complicated, so she just nodded.

"Xu Mo said, Ms. Li is very curious, and I'm afraid she will come over one day to ask for clarification. I hope I can tell the whole story." The dean sighed as he said. "But that incident is strictly speaking black history, so..."

Li Youxue frowned, concentrated her mind, and listened very carefully.

"Our orphanage was built and supported by the Lianyu City Government, and its initial scale was far larger than it is now." The director said with concern. "Seventeen years ago, someone anonymously reported to the media that the orphanage was engaged in child reselling and drug smuggling. Although the charges were later cleared during the investigation, the reputation of the orphanage was also affected..."

A piercing cell phone rang suddenly.

The dean was taken aback, and when he realized it, he immediately explained apologetically: "I'm sorry, Miss Li, I'm going to answer the phone. You sit and drink tea, and I'll be back in a while."

Answer the phone and go out to answer it?Is it something that cannot be known?Li Youxue guessed and nodded calmly.

So the dean hurried out with the cell phone that was still ringing. The footsteps quickly passed through the corridor, and even the ringing of the cell phone was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

Sitting there feeling bored, Li Youxue inadvertently glanced at the hardcover and painted fairy tale books on one side of the bookshelf, picked one out and opened it, just in time to see the first story - "The Daughter of the Sea".

It had been a long time since she had read such a book. Li Youxue took a sip of white tea, and in the fragrance of the tea, read this long-lost story with great interest.

When she read "She felt that every step was like walking on an awl and a sharp knife, but she was willing to endure the pain", the office door was pushed open with a "squeak".

Li Youxue subconsciously raised her eyes and looked over, just in time to meet the gentle gaze of the young man.

——She couldn't help pinching the hard spine of the fairy tale book in her hand.

"Are you reading a fairy tale book?" Xu Mo asked her familiarly, bending his eyes, as if he was not surprised at all.

Li Youxue took a breath and forced herself to respond with the calmest expression: "Yes."

Xu Mo smiled, walked over slowly, took the book in her hand lightly naturally, glanced a few times: "Daughter of the sea?"

His natural attitude made Li Youxue feel disgusted, but she still nodded reluctantly: "Yes."

Xu Mo flipped through a few pages lightly, seeming to have read the story at a glance, and then asked her with a smile: "Do you like this story?"

"I don't like it." Li Youxue replied lightly. "The Little Mermaid is so silly."

"Really?" Xu Mo murmured, as if thinking.After two seconds of silence, he asked meaningfully, "If you were the Little Mermaid, what would you do?"

"No matter what method I use, I must let that prince know that I am the one who saved him." Li Youxue laughed mockingly as she thought about it. "It's so ridiculous to give up love and even give up life without even trying, despite paying so much, neither explaining nor fighting for it."

Xu Mo's expression became a little complicated.

Li Youxue glanced at him, not thinking about what this guy was struggling with, and asked him, "Why are you here?"

"I'm just guessing, maybe you'll come here." Xu Mo looked at her and answered seriously.

——Meaning that he came here specifically to find her?When Li Youxue came to her senses, she sneered in her heart and didn't take it seriously, she continued to ask calmly, "Did you have something to do with me?"

"I think..." Xu Mo paused, looking at her very tenderly. "I should say goodbye to you."

Li Youxue waited quietly for his next words.

"There is an academic exchange meeting in the imperial capital, and I need to go there." Xu Mo was not frustrated by her cold reaction, and continued with a smile. "I'll be back as soon as possible...before the New Year."

Li Youxue really wanted to reply "Why do you go and tell me I don't care", but she always felt that it might be too much to say that, so she thought about it and decided to give Xu Mo a chance— — "Is that all you have to say?"

... If this guy can apologize for the forced kiss incident, she is not such a stingy person.

[! ! ] The system was taken aback. 【etc!Your Lady Queen!Xu Mo is the target of the attack!He forcefully kissed you just means that he likes you, so forget it if you are unhappy, why are you angry instead? 】

"Have you ever seen a girl who was happy when her first kiss was taken?" Li Youxue said expressionlessly. "Even if it's for the strategy, the sacrifice is too great... Isn't spiritual love good?"

[…] The system was speechless.

Xu Mo was obviously taken aback, as if he was trying to understand something, he stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms - because of the height difference between Li Youxue sitting and standing, he easily let her lean on his abdomen, and then, gently Gently and lovingly rubbing her little head.

Maintaining this movement, he was silent for two seconds, and said softly, "Wait for me to come back."

... Li Youxue, who had waited for a long time and thought that she would be able to say "I'm sorry" or "I was wrong", felt inexplicably angry. She struggled to push away Xu Mo's hand touching her head, and was about to stare at him when she was caught unexpectedly. He held his face in his hands, and a light, cool kiss fell on his forehead.

Li Youxue was stunned for a moment, and heard Xu Mo whispering in her ear, "When I come back, I have something to tell you."

——When he comes back, could it be... Li Youxue blinked, and asked the system strangely: "He said he will apologize after he comes back? It's just an apology, and he still needs to prepare his mind for a few days?"

The system is inexplicably silent: […]

"Promise me, you will take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back..." Xu Mo was still speaking in a gentle and peaceful tone, but Li Youxue always felt that he seemed a little anxious, and even crossed his fingers and held her right hand tightly for the first time ever. Stare into her eyes. "Promise me, will you?"

Li Youxue pursed her lips tightly and nodded - her intuition told her that if this request was rejected, Xu Mo would probably react strangely.

Finally getting her approval, Xu Mo relaxed and showed a smile - compared to his polite smiles that were superficial, this one was obviously much more real.With that smile, he reached out and touched her cheek: "Good girl."

I always felt that this nickname was so weird and disgusting, so Li Youxue turned her eyes away from him.

Xu Mo didn't care about her reaction, and glanced at the teacup in front of her with interest: "It's white tea...Are you used to its taste?"

"You like it very much?" Not very happy to tell him what she likes, Li Youxue asked back.

Xu Mo smiled slightly to meet her gaze, picked up the teacup calmly, took a sip slowly, and then replied softly: "I like it very much."

Wei Wei opened her eyes wide and looked at the teacup in his hand that belonged to her. Li Youxue twitched the corners of her mouth, suppressing the desire to curse and glared at him: "That's my cup."

Xu Mo paused, and his smile grew stronger: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it...do you care?"

——It’s not intentional.Taking his smile into her eyes, Li Youxue couldn't help thinking angrily.

The author has something to say:

Although Xu Mo doesn't have many roles, but if you read it carefully, you will find it very interesting...Xu Mo has really worked hard to pick up girls, even though girls don't like this.

The story of The Little Mermaid, I believe anyone who has read Xu Mo's new card attached to the foreign contract some time ago, should be able to understand it?If you don't understand, you can leave a message and ask me.
