Chapter 9 - Hoes Over Bros

"Female Devil! If you are so concerned about him then come out now! Why are you threatening me with my salary~ T_T" Yan Chu replied, his heart broke into pieces, and he thought was this what 'Hoes over Bros' mean.

"No. I didn't threaten you, you have the freedom to say no," Mo Xi replied immediately.

When Mo Xi found out that Jing Mo Chen had been looking for her, she was very happy because this meant that for the past five years, it was not only her that thought about him. She had the urge to show up in front of him right now, but at the same time, she didn't want to because she was afraid that she would reveal her feelings. It may sound crazy, but when she looked into Jing Mo Chen's eyes five years ago, her heart fluttered. It may be very natural and usual for someone who was seventeen to develop feelings, but it wasn't the case for Mo Xi. She was cold, she never really felt any emotion. Her eyes could tell whether someone is good or bad, people usually try to figure out if someone has ill intentions with the person's eyes. It is similar for her case, except for the fact that she doesn't figure it out, she sees it clearly. People are like transparent in front of her, that was also the reason why she knew who to work with or know when someone intends to harm her. She had seen all kinds of people and that was why it was very hard for her heart to flutter. She only wanted to help Jing Mo Chen last time because he was in danger and she knew those people were all wanted people. However, she didn't expect that that mere look into his eyes trapped her till now. She doesn't believe that she will get married because she wasn't ordinary. Her eyes were special and so were all her other senses. Her hearing, smelling, tasting, and touch are all extremely sensitive. That was why she could hear people talking from far away, detect different chemicals from the scent, analyze different things added in food, and even dodge attacks. Every single cell in her body was very sensitive, but this also poses a problem because a little amount of drug or gas could harm her easily. She didn't want to let her feelings for Jing Mo Chen grow and that was the reason why she didn't know Jing Mo Chen was the one she helped back then because she made sure to not look for him. It was also why she didn't want to come back, however, she had to because she still wanted to find her family. She was afraid to see that Jing Mo Chen doesn't like her, she was even more afraid that Jing Mo Chen would not be able to accept her difference.

Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen look at the changes in facial expression of Yan Chu as they wondered what happened.

"Sorry about that. Please do have some food." Yan Chu said with a very business tone again.

"Tell me where she is!" Jing Mo Chen raised his voice slightly.

Yan Chu was on the verge of a breakdown. F*ck! Why are Jing Mo Chen and Mo Xi so troublesome! WuuWuuWuu! My salary!

"We will talk after we finish eating. If you don't want to you may leave now," Yan Chu said casually.

"OK! However, you must tell us everything we want to know later," Lu Jin Xiao said and he turned to Jing Mo Chen, "Let's eat, we can ask him after we eat."

"Mm." Yan Chu replied nonchalantly but deep in his heart he was already crying.

Since when did my job become so difficult. T_T

After they finished eating, Jing Mo Chen spoke immediately.

"Where is she?"

"Firstly, I owe you all an apology for what happened then although I didn't fight, I was involved in the incident. Sorry. Secondly, I need to thank you all for letting me go, if not I wouldn't be here talking with you all. At that time, I was forced to help them because they took my girlfriend then, as a hostage. You all should already know that I am an orphan, so at that time my girlfriend was my everything. However, luckily Mo Xi came and revealed their schemes. She knew that my ex-girlfriend wasn't a hostage and that those people just wanted to make use of my fighting ability. My ex-girlfriend was, in fact, a part of the gang. She deliberately came to me just to trick me into the gang and help them. So, thank you."

"So, where is Mo Xi?!" Lu Jin Xiao couldn't hold it any longer as well.

"She is right here in the Capital City."

Lu Jin Xiao and Jing Mo Chen were elated to hear that Mo Xi was in the city, especially Jing Mo Chen. Jing Mo Chen was always calm and composed, he was very strong, talented, and cold when he took over the Jing's Corporation. Jing's Corporation only ranked third together with Yang's Company in the past. Yang's Company belongs to Jing Mo Chen's mother, Yang Shu Ling's family. However, after Jing Mo Chen took over, he made it the top most influential and powerful company in the Capital City. Hence, everyone was afraid of him, yet, he lost all his self-control when it came to Mo Xi.

"Why is it that we can never find her or you? Over the past five years, she would show up suddenly and disappear suddenly and she never left a trace?" Jing Chen Mo asked hurriedly.

"It wasn't that we left without a trace but that you guys followed the wrong trace," Yan Chu said calmly.
