If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1656: That Person Is Still in the Dim Light (7)

Chapter 1656: Chapter 1656: That Person Is Still in the Dim Light (7)

After three rounds of drinks, many of the boys were more or less drunk and began to talk nonsense. Some girls also drank too much and started letting loose.

Xia Chuqing was constantly being watched by someone and couldn’t touch alcohol, but she was quite sober.

Plus, she ate a lot! 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Chuqing, can you have a drink?" Suddenly, a boy approached Xia Chuqing.

Xia Chuqing politely stood up, but her cup contained orange juice: "Zhao classmate."

This male classmate was obviously drunk, his face was red. Xiao Mo didn’t intervene, just squinted at them.

Everyone knows, this guy clearly has a thing for Xia Chuqing.

"Chuqing, do you... have a boyfriend?" The boy took a sip of wine and asked slowly.

"I... do." Xia Chuqing sneakily glanced at someone.

"Can’t you reconsider me, I’ve never forgotten you these past three years, I still think like I did when we were in school, I can take care of you," the boy said, "These past three years I’ve been fulfilling my promise, I got a job at a listed company, have already become the sales director, and now, my annual salary is... eight hundred thousand, I have a house and a car."

As soon as he spoke, a girl nearby exclaimed "Wow!"

Xia Chuqing shook her head and smiled: "Zhao classmate, I really do have a boyfriend, and he treats me very well too."

Xiao Mo remained silent, not giving him any extra compliments?

Xiao Mo has always disliked class reunions or the like, he hasn’t attended any gatherings in these years.

Class reunions are nothing but breaking up couples.

He came today to check out the status of his rivals.

"Chuqing!" The boy shouted again, "Can’t you just consider me? Am I worse than your boyfriend?"

"That... it’s not that, I just prefer to stay true," Xia Chuqing said awkwardly.

The boy’s face reddened, casually tossing his car keys onto the table, and leaned closer to Xia Chuqing.

People around started whispering: "Zhao classmate is quite successful, look, the car is a Cayenne. And he’s handsome!"

"Yeah, and Xia Chuqing is being picky."

"True, with the trouble her dad’s got into, it’s lucky anyone’s into her."

"Why doesn’t Zhao classmate pursue me!"

Xia Chuqing quickly backed off: "Zhao classmate, you’ve had too much, I really do have a boyfriend!"

"I don’t believe you." The boy leaned in, "If you really have a boyfriend, then show me a photo? If you can’t produce one, then you don’t have one."

Xia Chuqing was torn, a photo? There was none on her phone.

Xiao Mo isn’t fond of taking pictures, let alone selfies. She wasn’t interested in taking sneaky shots either, plus, she sees him every day, no need for secret photos.

"Can’t find one meaning you’re lying? Chuqing, I know about your father’s situation, I don’t mind, I still like you."

Shuangshuang came over, patted Zhao classmate on the shoulder: "What’s the point of hesitating, you know what girls want."

Then, she whispered in Zhao’s ear: "Get them to drink a little more later, get a room, then everything’s sorted."

Xia Chuqing saw the situation was getting out of hand, so pointed to Xiao Mo, honestly saying: "He’s my boyfriend."

As soon as she spoke, everyone laughed, Zhao laughed even more.

"Chuqing, you don’t have to go that far to reject me, making up stuff? You haven’t drunk that much! Chuqing, I know, you have feelings for me."

Then, Zhao stepped forward suddenly, emboldened by the alcohol, to forcefully kiss Xia Chuqing.

Xiao Mo immediately stood up, grabbed him forcefully and knocked him aside.

Raised his eyebrow, coldly looked at Zhao classmate: "She said I’m her boyfriend, didn’t you hear?"

Everyone was stunned, what’s going on?

Then, Xiao Mo tossed the car keys from the table onto his body: "Where do you work?"

Zhao saw the situation wasn’t right, but took it as Xiao Mo coming to help, snorted coldly, grabbed the car keys and ran off.

Xia Chuqing glanced at him, is it really okay to scare people like that?

"Low-quality admirers." Xiao Mo threw out a casual remark and continued to sit down to eat.

The others only thought Xiao Mo was coming to help and didn’t link Xia Chuqing with Xiao Mo.

Xia Chuqing puckered her lips: "Told you not to come along, I could handle it myself. Now I’ve caused you trouble..."

"Why trouble, it’s insignificant."

Xia Chuqing squinted at him, moved closer and whispered: "What about Yao Hongming?"

"Getting bold." Xiao Mo lowered his voice, gaze sweeping over her face.

The matter had passed a long time ago, Xia Chuqing hadn’t seen Mr. Yao for ages. However, Xia Chuqing often joked about it, saying Xiao Mo was narrow-minded.

Can’t deny, Yao Hongming was indeed outstanding, no wonder someone sees Yao like a nemesis.

The room was lively, voices were chaotic, no one could hear what they were saying.

Shuangshuang and her friends didn’t dare make trouble either, initially Shuangshuang was thinking of flirting with Xiao Mo, but his expression stayed cold, she grew timid and backed off.

Around ten o’clock, the dinner was about to end, several boys suggested going for karaoke.

Xiao Mo had already left, so Xia Chuqing bid farewell to everyone.

Lingling had been standing by Xia Chuqing, she then asked softly: "President Xiao seems to care about you, does he have feelings for you?"

"Shh, he’s my boyfriend."

"No way? Xia Chuqing, are you drunk?" Lingling didn’t believe it either, looking incredulous.

"Do you think I’m not worthy of him? I think I’m quite pretty." Saying that, Xia Chuqing touched her cheek and grinned.

"Haha, you are quite pretty, but compared to President Xiao..."

"Alright, I know." Xia Chuqing wasn’t upset, smiled sweetly, "President Xiao is great, but he has one fatal flaw."

"Hmm?" Lingling seriously awaited her answer.

Xia Chuqing winked: "He’s blind!"

He must be blind, otherwise, how could he fancy her...

She told herself, in the future, she’ll definitely be able to match him, so as not to let down his affection.

"..." Lingling’s mouth twitched, refusing to believe Xia Chuqing’s words.

"Alright, wait until I get married and invite you, then you’ll know who my boyfriend really is." Xia Chuqing unexpectedly felt quite good.

"Alright, if I’m not married by then, I’ll be your bridesmaid."

"Deal!"

The sky outside was pitch black, no stars visible, only the moon showed a vague outline.

Yet another good night for a full moon...

Everyone exchanged farewells, some reluctant, some moved, some dismissive...

Even though it’s summer, the evening breeze brought a chill.

Xia Chuqing took a deep breath, sometimes gazing at the sky, sometimes at everyone.

People quickly left, one by one, Xia Chuqing stayed in the same spot, waiting for Xiao Mo.
