Chapter 1354: Light It Up

Her friends, when they see Chu Yao, act as if they want to eat her flesh and drink her blood; can you really say Qiao Man never stirred things up?

Chu Yao is not a fool.

Qiao Man also never considered Chu Yao to be a fool.

She just didn’t expect Chu Yao to have no reservations at all, confronting her directly and speaking so harshly.

But her friend didn’t think that it was Chu Yao tearing off Qiao Man’s disguise; she only felt that that woman was outrageously arrogant, how could she scold someone in front of the victim like this?

It’s really despicable behavior.

“No way!

I must tell President Mo about this!”

“Forget it!”

Qiao Man hurriedly pulled her back, “Tingshen is Miss Chu’s brother, after all they grew up together, it’s not right for him to be partial between me and Miss Chu, just don’t tell him.”

“But she just scolded you like that!”

“It’s just a few curses, she didn’t do anything to me, it doesn’t matter.”

Her friend was deeply upset, her face was pinched painfully by Chu Yao, she couldn’t swallow this resentment, “What siblings!

They’re not related by blood, she wasn’t adopted by President Mo, and yet she’s clinging on him like that!

In the future, you’ll be the mistress of the Mo Family, who does she think she is?

You should use your status as the sister-in-law to discipline her; if I were you, I wouldn’t endure this in silence!”

“Forget it, forget it…”

Qiao Man held her back, persuading kindly, “Let’s go back, our parents and Tingshen are still waiting.”

Her friend glared at her, resenting her lack of spine, but thinking of Chu Yao’s madness, she didn’t dare provoke Chu Yao any further.

Forget it, don’t let her see her again; just an actress!

She brought too few people this time, let’s see if Chu Yao dares next time!

…

Chu Yao returned to the private room, didn’t close the door, nor did she go back to the card table, straight away heading to the bar, grabbed a bottle of red wine, and meticulously picked a glass, sitting there drinking alone.

When she was on her third glass, suddenly she heard the noise of a lighter igniting.

“Who the hell is smoking now!”

Chu Yao leaned back and shouted.

She herself smoked, but she was in a bad mood now, wouldn’t allow others to smoke, been holding back for a long time, so upon hearing the sound of the lighter, she frowned: “Give your sister a cigarette.”

Everyone: “…”

Mo Tingshen stood at the doorway, holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers, pulled out the pack, drew one and placed it in his mouth, handed the one in his hand to Chu Yao.

Chu Yao took it casually, deftly held it between her lips, turned her head just to speak, and was greeted by Mo Tingshen’s face, thinking she was drunk, seeing hallucinations.

Yet this mirage was somewhat unsettling, nothing good, only filth in front of her.

Until Mo Tingshen spoke: “I don’t have ladies’ cigarettes, can you smoke this?”

Chu Yao silently watched him for two seconds, corner of her mouth lifted, let out a laugh, leaned over, “Light it.”

Mo Tingshen sparked the lighter, shielding it with one hand, lighting for Chu Yao, planned to light his own, thought for a bit, and ended up tucking the cigarette behind his ear.

Bo Yanching noticed him straight away, pretended not, hoping someone would have sense enough to leave, but who knew Chu Yao’s keen ears caught him.

She cursed, Mo Tingshen really dared to come in to offer a smoke.

Bo Yanching had promised Chu Yao earlier that Mo Tingshen wouldn’t be there tonight, quickly dissociated himself, “Why did you come here?”

Mo Tingshen: “I happened to be dining here, didn’t know you chose this place to gather, thought you’d go to Minglun.”
