?Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Not feeling suffocated, but rather finding it sweet   Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Not feeling suffocated, but rather finding it sweet                                   “Because I like you, I don’t feel suffocated, instead, it feels very sweet,” her slender fingers climbed onto the man’s shoulders.


    Mo Chen’s eyes were deep as he stared at her slightly parted rosy lips, “Say it again.”


    Qiao Ruoxin was startled for a moment, thinking this man really had a lot of tricks up his sleeve.


    “Mo Chen, I like you… Mmm!”


    Before her words could fall, she was silenced by the man’s long fingers pressing against her head, as he forcibly kissed her lips.


    The kiss turned from gentle pecks to a fierce, passionate one, as if he wanted to engrave Qiao Ruoxin into his very being.


    Qiao Ruoxin had wanted to struggle and push him away, but remembering his possessiveness, she couldn’t bear to do it and let him have his way with her.


    Perhaps after five minutes, ten minutes…


    Mo Chen finally let go of her pitifully swollen red lips.


    His long fingers caressed Qiao Ruoxin’s lips, his voice low and sexy, “Does it hurt?”


    “Mm… You were too rough,” she nodded, resting on the man’s chest, listening to his heartbeat.


    Qiao Ruoxin suddenly looked up at the man’s handsome face, “Have you had dinner?”


    “No.”


    “Why didn’t you eat? Didn’t I tell you to eat properly?”


    The man spoke with a casual tone, “Not hungry.”


    “Because you didn’t see me home?”


    “Mm…”


    Qiao Ruoxin chuckled softly, “Mo Chen, let’s go out for dinner, then watch a movie after we’re done!”


    “Watching a movie again?” There was disdain in the man’s eyes.


    “What’s with that face? I won’t make you watch ‘Spirited Away’ again, I know you’re tired of it, let’s go to the cinema and watch something else.”


    The man’s expression eased a bit, “Okay.”


    Qiao Ruoxin stood up, “Now that our rtionship is public, we can date openly!”


    Mo Chen stood up, towering over her by a good distance, and took her small hand, “Let’s go.”


    Suddenly, he seemed to have regained his appetite.


    …


    Qiao Ruoxin went for dinner first with Mo Chen, and then the two of them arrived at the cinema with a bodyguard escort and booked a VIP hall.


    She chose a Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster, assuming men generally like sci-fi movies, right?


    Clearly, Mo Chen at least paid serious attention to the movie screen.


    She snuck a nce at the man’s handsome profile and whispered, “Do you like it?”


    The man responded, “Mm.”


    Throughout the two-hour movie, by the second half, she had fallen asleep on Mo Chen’s shoulder.


    When the end credits started to roll, Qiao Ruoxin opened her eyes in a daze.


    “It’s over already? Was the movie that short…” she rubbed her eyes and sat up straight.


    Mo Chen snorted dismissively, giving an unfeeling coldugh, “You slept for an hour and twenty minutes.”


    “…”


    This was so awkward, she had wanted toe watch the movie and ended up sleeping through an hour and twenty minutes of it!


    “Cough cough, I’m tired, let’s go home to sleep, so sleepy…”


    She got up quickly to make her escape.


    The man rose slowly and followed behind her, watching her embarrassed figure, a smile of indulgence curling on his lips.


    On their way out of the cinema, they were identally photographed by the paparazzi.


    The sh of the camera startled Qiao Ruoxin at first, but then she thought, “We’ve already announced our rtionship, what is there to fear from paparazzi? Let them snap away.”


    The man wrapped his arms around her slender waist and said in a deep voice, “We are being secretly photographed.”


    She nodded calmly, “The rtionship is public now, let them take pictures.”


    A satisfied smile appeared on Mo Chen’s handsome face; he liked her reaction and held her waist even tighter.


    …


    At midnight, #MoChenQiaoRuoxinLateNightDate shot up to the trending search!


    [Ahh! So sweet! True CPs are the sweetest! Mo Ye is looking so doting, I’ve never seen him smile like this.]


    [ChenXin’s perfect match has got me locked in! Nobody better try to split them! I won’t allow it!]


    [The sugar offered by the main characters themselves is so sweet! Is Simon feeling heartbroken now? Hahaha…]


    [Did Mo Chen and Qiao Ruoxin get married? Checking in on day one…]


    [Boohoo… Qiao sister, you’ve really broken my heart. Ate-night date, does this mean you’re living together now? Oh no! I’m going dark here! Talk is cheap, promised no dating, but then turned around and got back with an ex! A total washout!]


    [I’m certain! They’ve slept together! These intimate gestures, the way Mo Ye looks at Qiao Ruoxin, definitely, without a doubt, they’ve slept together!]


    [Are you f***ing PornHub’s moderator upstairs? How can you tell just by looking?]


    [I told you, they were sure to get back together, now I don’t have to livestream myself eating shit. Let me make another prediction, within a year they will definitely get married and have kids! Otherwise, I will livestream myself drinking piss!]


    …


    The next day.


    Qiao Ruoxin officially returned to work to shoot a game endorsement ad for Simon.


    Now, almost everyone knew about her reunion with Mo Chen, and they treated her with the utmost respect—after all, with such a powerfulpany backing her, who would dare to slight her?


    Kong Ling and the other girl group members stood to the side, their eyes filled with envy and hatred.


    “She is just so lucky, born into wealth, Mo Ye’s ex-girlfriend in her teens, and now she has sessfully reunited with him, even securing the endorsement for the entire LK series from Hengzhong Group!”


    “What can you do about it? It’s because you’re not as pretty as her, nor as good at acting coy.”


    “Think about it, a girl who caught Mo Ye’s eye in her teens, could she be anyone ordinary?”


    “Tsk tsk… ording to rumors, Mo Ye took an interest in her when he was eighteen. How old was she then, learning to seduce men at such a young age?”


    “I also heard that her mom climbed her way up from being a mistress.”


    “Who did you hear that from?”


    “That Qiao Sisi who quit thepetition, saying Qiao Ruoxin was just like her mom, particrly good at winning over men.”


    Kong Ling scolded sharply, “Enough, all of you! Let’s get back to work! Do you want to provoke Qiao Ruoxin and have her retaliate against you?”


    The girl group members immediately shut up; they didn’t dare to provoke Mo Chen, the big sponsor ‘daddy’.


    …


    After getting changed, Qiao Ruoxin arrived at the shooting location and saw Simon standing there on the phone with his back to her.


    As she passed by, she happened to hear Simon say, “No one is to touch that USB drive; leave it in my office. I’lle to get itter. Remember, don’t touch it! Anyone who does is fired!”


    A glint of light shed across Qiao Ruoxin’s eyes.


    Could it be… the original copy of that video?


    She watched Simon talking on the phone with a grave expression, brushing past him.


    After the shoot that day, Simon approached her with a bottle of water.


    But today, she uncharacteristically epted the water he offered her.


    “The shoot is over, where do you n to go?”


    Qiao Ruoxin took a couple sips of water, then sized up Simon before her, “I think I’ll visit the Lawrence Family’s branch in China. I’ve never been there; I want to see what it’s like.”


    Simon smiled, “Sure, I’ll take you on a tour. It’s also where your mom and my dad met.”


    Yes, Qiao Ruoxin’s mother had previously worked at the Lawrence Family’s local branch.
