Translator: 549690339

When Cheng Jia arrived at the construction site, it was already dusk.

MO Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng were each wearing a safety helmet, standing on the construction site, and talking with the chief engineer about the blueprint. Occasionally they would glance up at the skyscraper in front of them.

Seeing Cheng Jia, Luo Haofeng’s eyes narrowed sharply. He lightly nudged MO Xiuchen with his elbow and softly said, “Why did Cheng Jia come here? Did you invite her?”

MO Xiuchen didn’t even lift his head, his eyes on the blueprint. He answered in a flat tone, “Yeah, this afternoon, she called saying she had something to give me. I don’t know why, but she didn’t get to the office for more than an hour. When I came out, I asked her to come here to avoid her running into Xiao

Wenqing at the office which might lead to any unwanted situation.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Luo Haofengs eyes. He casually said, “I saw her on the street with Bai Xiaoxiao and Wen Ran, but she didn’t see us. She turned into an alleyway. I don’t know what for.”

MO Xiuchen’s gaze sharpened. He looked up at Luo Haofeng. “She said there was a traffic jam, but actually, there was no traffic jam on that route today. I know. ”

Luo Haofeng roared with laughter, “It seems Cheng Jia has been up to no good.”

“Never mind her.”

MO Xiuchen glanced at Cheng Jia, who was quickly approaching them, ending his conversation with Luo Haofeng.

A short while later, Cheng Jia reached them. She looked at MO Xiuchen, her eyes filled with a subtle joy, but she didn’t dare display it too openly. She simply greeted him respectfully, “Young Master MO!”

“Wait a few minutes.”

MO Xiuchen kept his eyes on the blueprint, listening to the chief engineer speak. He didn’t even glance at Cheng Jia. She pursed her lips and whispered ‘okay’, standing quietly listening to their conversation.

After ten minutes, MO Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng took off their safety helmets. Cheng Jia followed them off the construction site to the car parked nearby.

“Ah Feng, you can go first.”

MO Xiuchen said flatly to Luo Haofeng.

Luo Haofeng nodded, glanced at Cheng Jia in her sexy outfit, got into his car, and drove off.

“You can talk now.”

MO Xiuchen leaned nonchalantly against the car. He didn’t open the car door, or show any intention of letting Cheng Jia get in. Cheng Jia hesitated, then said softly, “Young Master MO, could I invite you for a cup of coffee? Some things are inconvenient to speak of here.”

As she spoke, she looked around. Considering they were at a construction site currently under intense build-up, the noise indeed made having a conversation difficult.

A hint of consideration crossed MO Xiuchen’s eyes. He turned around, opened the car door, and got in.

Cheng Jia’s face lit up. She was about to go around the front of the car and get in the passenger seat when MO Xiuchen stopped her, “Sit in the back.”

She paused her expression freezing.

“Young Master MO, how could I let you play the chauffeur for me?”

When MO Xiuchen asked her to sit in the back, he was only concerned about her dirtying Wen Ran’s seat. He hardly cared about he becoming her chauffeur because of that.

Seeing a hint of annoyance cross MO Xiuchen’s face, Cheng Jia tightly clenched her fists. She opened the backdoor, bent down, and climbed in.

In the café

MO Xiuchen leaned back in his chair, his deep and narrow eyes lazily watching Cheng Jia across the table. She pulled out a locked diary from her bag. It was pink— obviously the one she used to write down her inner thoughts.

“Young Master MO, I have recorded everything that has happened in recent years in this diary.”

She held out the diary with both hands to MO Xiuchen.

MO Xiuchen’s eyes narrowed sharply, his gaze on Cheng Jia more critical and scrutinizing, seemingly questioning the truth of her statement.

Under his sharp gaze, Cheng Jia straightened her back subconsciously, forcing herself to withstand the formidable pressure he exuded. She insisted that he take the diary.

The diary contained not only what MO Xiuchen wanted but also her own emotions.

When she first wrote this diary, she did it hoping that MO Xiuchen would read it someday. Thus, any dirty deeds she performed naturally didn’t make it onto the diary—she was smart about that.

Only after her hands began to weaken from holding up the diary did MO Xiuchen lazily reach out his hand and take it from her. He put it on the table and said casually, “Actually, you could have just told me directly. This diary is your private property. It wouldn’t be right for me to read it.”

Cheng Jia’s face flushed slightly. The idea of MO Xiuchen reading her diary made her heart race. She felt an inexplicable joy at the thought.

Once he read the diary, he would know how she had admired him over the years, worshipping him as if he were a god.

She didn’t believe that MO Xiuchen was incapable of having the slightest emotional reaction to any woman other than Wen Ran. Weren’t there idioms that said persistence could bore through a stone or melt a metal?

She believed that as long as she was patient and consistent, given the right conditions, MO Xiuchen would eventually develop feelings for her.

“Young Master MO, it would be too chaotic to say everything out loud. It would be better to read from the diary. Don’t worry, everything in it is true, documented when I found out about it.”

MO Xiuchen remained silent, picking up his coffee, taking a sip, then placing it back down.

“There’s one thing. I don’t know if I should tell you.”

MO Xiuchen arched his eyebrow, indicating for her to speak.

“Actually, I wrote about this incident in the diary as well. About three years ago, I accidentally discovered Xiao Wenqing and a man booking a hotel room.”

Cheng Jia’s voice was very low, as if she felt embarrassed about even mentioning the subject.

An expression of disapproval crossed MO Xiuchen’s face. His thin lips moved slightly, “Who was that man?”

“I don’t know. Over the years, apart from Xiao Wenqing, I didn’t see anyone else. I eavesdropped on or occasionally witnessed some things. However, she met a man named Wu Tianyi most frequently.”

“Do you remember what that man looked like?”

MO Xiuchen asked in a low voice. He had only recently learned of Wu Tianyi’s existence. Xiao Wenqing was as cunning as Cheng Jia and was extremely cautious in her actions. That’s why he only found out about Wu Tianyi recently.

He wasn’t yet sure about their relationship, though.

Wu Tianyi hadn’t visited G City recently, so even if there were any unsavory affairs between them, he wouldn’t Imow.

Cheng Jia frowned and tried hard to remember the scene she had seen. She murmured, “The man was of average height, a little fat. Oh! He spoke with a northern accent. There’s more, but I can’t remember right now. However, I wrote down everything very carefully in the diary at that time.”

She was indirectly emphasizing that he must read the diary.

A cold smile tugged at the corners of MO Xiuchen’s mouth. He sat up straight and asked, changing the subject, “How have you and Little Liu been doing recently?”

Cheng Jia was taken aback, seemingly unable to adjust to his abrupt change in topic. She blinked blankly before answering softly, “Little Liu has been very busy these days, so I haven’t seen him much.. Young Master MO, if after spending time with Little Liu, I find we’re not compatible, can we really part amicably?”
