[Love and Producer] Passive strategy

"I..." Li Youxue already had a conditioned reflex to refuse, but suddenly thought that Li Zeyan, the board of directors of Huarui, must be very understanding, and immediately changed the subject: "Okay, if you don't mind me wasting your time."

"The time I wasted because of you is not bad." Li Zeyan responded bluntly.

[Li Zeyan's favorability +31!Li Zeyan's affection for you has risen to LEVEL-6! 】

"Just pretend," Li Youxue smiled sarcastically as soon as she heard the system's prompt, realizing the active heart of this guy. "Aren't you just worried that I won't pass the review?"

"You're thinking too much." Li Zeyan replied very calmly. "It's not a day or two for you to be passionate about yourself."

"Then, see you tomorrow morning." Li Youxue smiled secretly, and hung up the phone without waiting for Li Zeyan to say anything.

[Li Zeyan's favorability degree +21! 】

"Look, Li Zeyan is indeed a masochist." Li Youxue nodded affirmatively. "The more I don't like him, the more he likes him."

System: [... You always complain about the male lead, do you really want to attack him? 】

"Didn't you ask me to attack him?" The corner of Li Youxue's mouth twitched.

The system was speechless.

Li Youxue's attention had already been diverted, completely ignoring the system, and instead staring at the company gate downstairs outside the window.

A figure had already appeared there, standing under the gardenia tree, wearing an iconic black shirt and white coat, making passers-by unable to look back.

As if aware of her gaze, the man raised his head and smiled slightly at her.

……

When Li Youxue stood in front of Xu Mo, on the stone steps at the entrance of the company, she looked towards him with a half-smile.

Xu Mo looked at her with gentle and patient eyes, while stretching out a hand to her, and said softly, "I'm here to pick you up."

Li Youxue didn't follow his routine, and stood still, ignoring the hand and asked him, "How do you know I'm here?"

"Guess," Xu Mo smiled slightly, continuing to extend his hand, as if he didn't see her deliberate static movement. "I just thought that Huavel's investment review will be next. If you value the company's development so much, you must be here... It turns out that I know you well enough."

"Then you can also understand what I'm thinking when I'm standing here now?" Li Youxue asked him in a low voice with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

"If you wish." Xu Mo continued to respond with a smile calmly.

Li Youxue looked at him, but couldn't see anything from his polite appearance, so she put her hand on his with some regret.

【My Lady Queen, I thought you would completely ignore Xu Mo until the end. ] Li Youxue finally gave Xu Mo face, and the system expressed surprise.

"Face is of course to be given, after all, it is one of the targets." Li Youxue answered the system's doubts casually. "But how did Xu Mo know about Huarui's investment process?"

[Did you...] The system started in a complicated way, so there will be no further text.

"In short, Xu Mo's favor is the most difficult to gain. This shows that this man's mind is very strange. Most of the time, it is not the same as Li Zeyan's duplicity." Li Youxue speculated softly, and suddenly thought of Xu Mo just being ignored. A smile as steady as Mount Tai. "Just now, he didn't show any obvious reaction to his face. It doesn't look like Zhou Qiluo's masochistic thinking."

【... Your analysis is actually very reasonable? ] The system was also taken aback.

"What do you want to do first?" Xu Mo kept observing the subtle changes in her expression, and asked with a smile at this moment.

"Why don't you go shopping." Li Youxue had already thought of a countermeasure and looked at him tentatively. "If you want to know me, why not start with what I like?"

Xu Mo's smile, who was stared at by her, remained unchanged, and even faintly became brighter: "Okay, I'm very happy—" He blinked, staring at her with deep purple eyes full of ambiguity. "You gave me this chance to get to know you."

"The end of this road is Xinguang Department Store." Li Youxue looked away from him, ignoring the hormones he emitted, and pretended to study the route seriously. "Just go there and have a look?"

"Okay, you can say whatever you want." Xu Mo also smiled naturally, took her hand, and led her down the steps - without letting go.

Li Youxue glanced at him unexpectedly, tried to pull her hand out... failed.

"...I've already stepped down, you can let go now, I won't fall on flat ground." Li Youxue stared at Xu Mo for two seconds, seeing that he really didn't let go, she had to say that.

"There are a lot of people, and it's not easy to get lost while holding hands." Xu Mo waved their holding hands in front of her, explaining gently and kindly.

Li Youxue almost blurted out "You lied" - today is Friday, how could there be so many people!

But she didn't say it directly, mainly because she suddenly saw Xu Mo's eyes - his deep purple pupils stared at her intently, with a kind of gentle but hard to ignore eyes, as if begging her not to refuse.

Li Youxue pursed the right corner of her mouth vigorously, gave up communicating with Xu Mo, and diverted her attention to walking... She reluctantly agreed to be dragged away by Xu Mo.

[Xu Mo's favorability +22!Xu Mo's affection for you has risen to LEVEL-5! 】

Accompanied by the system's notification tone, Xu Mo also showed a slight smile in time.

Li Youxue already had a kind of self-destructive anger - it was the first time she found that Xu Mo was like a brown candy, the kind that couldn't be shaken off and would not eat hard.

"If you want me to be happy, you might as well promise me one thing first." Looking at Xu Mo maliciously, Li Youxue narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Take off the white coat first?"

Xu Mo was taken aback, this time he really looked at her in surprise.

"I've never seen someone go shopping in a white coat." Li Youxue squinted and stared at him confidently. "I also think it's weird if you do this."

"Okay." Xu Mo shook his head helplessly and smiled, stopped walking, let go of her hand, and really started taking off in the middle of the road—fortunately, this is the time when ordinary people go to work, there are not many passers-by, and he moves quickly , Take off the white coat and hang it on your arm.

Li Youxue watched the whole process of him taking off his white coat, but she was very calm. By the way, she reached into her bag, took out a silver-white metallic pen, and handed it to him: "Your pen, it was left in the studio last time. hall."

"So it's with you." Xu Mo raised his hand to hold the pen barrel, stroked it lightly, raised his eyes and stared at her with a smile. "I'm still wondering where I put it."

"It seems that this pen is quite important to you?" Li Youxue looked at his reaction thoughtfully. "After all, if you lose it, you will still care about it."

"But you are more important to me." Xu Mo followed this topic very naturally. "If you lose it, maybe my world will be bleak from now on."

Li Youxue looked at him intently, and was a little surprised to find that although he had a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes at all—if the eyes are the windows to the human soul, then, what is actually living in his empty heart at the moment? What?

"Professor Xu, who is good at reading thoughts, will also know what I am thinking right now?" Li Youxue bent her eyes calmly, not meeting those eyes.

"I guess it's about me?" Xu Mo asked with a smile in his dark purple pupils this time.

"I was thinking, although it's the beginning of autumn, you often dress like this, isn't it hot?" Li Youxue rolled her eyes and looked at him with a calm smile.

"So, I guessed right?" Xu Mo didn't focus on her question, so he blinked at her. "That's great."

Under the gaze of those eyes, Li Youxue felt a strange feeling in her heart.

"As for whether I'm hot or not..." Xu Mo chuckled, his voice gradually deepening. "It seems that you care about me...I'm very happy."

"I didn't like it, it seems that the so-called happiness is fake." Li Youxue spoke to the system expressionlessly.

[...You can't completely take the favorability as a criterion, can you? 】The system sighed in disbelief.

"Let me hold it for you." Li Youxue opened the backpack and motioned for Xu Mo to stuff his clothes in. "Wouldn't it be troublesome if you were holding clothes all the way?"

"Thank you." Xu Mo rolled his eyes, tilted his head happily, and put the white coat in his hand into her backpack. "Thank you... for thinking of me like this."

[Xu Mo's favorability +13! 】

"Don't get me wrong," Li Youxue saw that he was happy and couldn't help but slap him, so she stabbed him naturally. "I think about it personally."

Xu Mo laughed, but he didn't take her words to heart.

While the two were talking, they had already stepped into the lobby on the first floor of Shin Kong Department Store.

The first floor of Shin Kong Department Store is often referred to as "Food Department Store" or "Food Paradise".The corridors on both sides are symmetrically distributed with clothing stores and grocery stores, while the central hall is full of various food stalls.

"Look, isn't it cute?" He happily bought two handmade lollipops from a passing snack shop, and Li Youxue held them up to Xu Mo with a smile.

——Lollipops with unique shapes, one is a cute bunny with round eyes, and the other is a little fox with pointed ears and a pointed mouth.

"Very cute." Xu Mo said, and couldn't help covering his lips with a chuckle.

"Cute, isn't it?" Li Youxue raised her eyebrows proudly, and gave him the little fox lollipop in her hand. "Come on, you are a fox and I am a rabbit."

"Oh?" Xu Mo raised the corner of his mouth, took the lollipop, and took the time to twist the cellophane on the surface with his hands. "Why am I a fox?"

"Because you are smart and cunning like a fox, and you also like sweet talk." Li Youxue smiled innocently with the intention of mocking him. "So, it's fox again, it's sugar again, it's perfect for you."

The plot of Xu Mo's first date has changed drastically.
