Chapter 109 - 109: Taking Her Back to the Office_l
Their eyes met and neither of them dared to look away for a while.
The afternoon sunlight shone through the gaps in the tree leaves, casting spots of light on them. Unexpectedly, this scene created quite a romantic picture.
“Your… your back, it is alright?”
Mo Shiting, after all, could not help but ask.
Their eyes were deep, carrying undeniable concern.
Gu Li ripped his hand off her arm, retreating a step back, responded indifferently: “I’m fine, thanks for your concern, Young Master Mo.”
Then, she coldly turned and tried to start walking towards the parking area.
“Wait.”
Mo Shiting quickly stopped her, “I have a document for you.”
Gu Li turned her head, blinked her eyes: “What document?”
“Follow me.”
Mo Shiting didn’t answer directly. After speaking, he instantly took off, leaving with evident fear of her refusing.
Gu Li’s eyes flickered; she struggled while standing in place, but in the end, she couldn’t control her emotions and followed him with a droopy head.
Unexpectedly, Mo Shiting brought her back to his office.
“Sit.”
He pointed to a spot in the sofa area for her to sit.
But stubbornly, Gu Li stood upright, muttering: “That’s okay. Whatever documents you want to give me, just hand it over. After I receive it, I’ll leave.”
The document is probably like the “Divorce Agreement” she guessed. Maybe because she didn’t sign the previous one, he wants her to sign it again.
Thinking about this, her heart felt like it was being stabbed again.
Seeing her cold and distant attitude, Mo Shiting also felt uncomfortable.
He pressed his lips together, not saying anything, and walked towards the bar.
Gu Li noticed this, her eyes flickering ominously.
In not much time, he walked over carrying a cup of juice and handed it to her.
Gu Li shook her head, still unemotionally: “Thank you, but I’m not thirsty.”
Mo Shiting’s handsome face stiffened slightly, he chose to drink it himself, and then walked to his office desk.
He placed the cup on the large desk and sat back down to start his work.
Gu Li gently pulled at the corner of her mouth, “It seems, Young Master Mo is deliberately trying to annoy me. I’m really busy, so I will take my leave.”
After saying that, she turned to walk towards the door.
Finally, Mo Shiting got to the point: “Wait until Lu Yang arrives. Please have a seat.”
Gu Li unconsciously gazed at him. Seeing his frown implying his unhappiness, her heartache grew stronger.
She clenched her fist, took a light breath, and then made her way over.
She settled into a single-seater sofa, not too far, not too close, just three meters away from Mo Shiting’s office desk.
Neither of them spoke, and the large office suddenly fell into silence, with only the sound of their heartbeats vaguely audible.
As time passed and there was still no sign of Lu Yang, Gu Li couldn’t help but ask impatiently: “Why hasn’t Lu Yang arrived?”
“Don’t worry, let’s wait a little longer.”
Mo Shiting said while turning pages of documents.
Gu Li had no choice but to grit her teeth and continue waiting. Just when she thought Lu Yang wouldn’t show up, there was a knock at the door.
“Come in.”
Accompanied by Mo Shiting’s icy instruction, the door was pushed open, and Lu Yang, holding a stack of documents, came in.
Seeing Gu Li, he opened his mouth in surprise.
Realizing his own surprise, he quickly adjusted his glasses and politely greeted: “Young Madam, you are here.”
Young Madam?
Gu Li scoffed internally. She was no longer any Young Madam.
No, she never was!
She hid her inner disappointment with a smile, nodding in acknowledgment, a subtle greeting to him.
“Young Master, these are the documents that need to be signed today.”
Lu Yang placed the documents on the large office table, reporting respectfully.
Mo Shiting “Mhmm,” started to do the paperwork..
