My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 445 - : 445, hit on the spot

Chapter 445: 445, hit on the spot

“Sister Jingyi, what do you mean by that?” Mo Weiyi’s brows knitted in confusion.

Chu Jingyi twirled a section of her burgundy waterfall tresses, exuding a charming smile, “Nothing, I’m just engaging in conversation.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Su Wanwan squinted her eyes.

What’s wrong with this Chu Jingyi?

Is she cursing others because her marriage is unhappy?

Who’s she trying to impress by acting so bizarre?

“Since you all are busy, I’ll leave first, bye.” Chu Jingyi turned around to leave right after she finished her sentence.

“Bye, Sister Jingyi.” Mo Weiyi waved her little hand, looking endearing.

Unable to resist her curiosity, Su Wanwan asked, “Are you close with her?”

“Of course not as close as I am with you.” Mo Weiyi affectionately hooked her arm, “Should we call Secretary Shi next time and go shopping together?”

“She’s a powerhouse, busy all the time, do you think she’s like us?”

“Regardless of how busy, she must have some leisure time, right? Or… we could have dinner together.”

“…”

The two walked and chatted, and when they got outside, Su Wanwan checked the time, “Do you still need to shop? If not, let’s go.”

“Alright, I’ll drop you off at school first, then I’ll go to look for Xiaobai at the company.”

“Uh-huh.”

Mo Weiyi hailed a taxi, dropped Su Wanwan off at the school gate, then directed the driver towards Mo Group.

It was a little past three in the afternoon when she arrived.

Mo Weiyi thought for a moment, made a detour to the coffee shop next door on the ground floor, bought a load of desserts, milk tea, and coffee, then walked into the office building with two waitstaff carrying packs and parcels.

The receptionist on the ground floor naturally recognized Mo Weiyi, immediately stood up in surprise and picked up the phone, “Miss Mo, I’ll notify Mr. Xiao right away.”

“Don’t!” Mo Weiyi interrupted, “I want to surprise Xiaobai.”

“Okay.” Both receptionists nodded blankly.

Lucky Princess knows how to play, staging a surprise… essentially she’s trying to catch someone in the act.

**

Soon, Mo Weiyi took the elevator to the top floor. As soon as she stepped out, she saw Zhong Kai walking over with a laptop.

Seeing the approaching Little Princess, Zhong Kai almost dropped his computer out of shock. He stuttered, “Pri…Princess? Why are you here?”

He has been an assistant at the Mo Group for several years, and Mo Weiyi almost never comes to the office. Why did she choose to come today?

Upon hearing the words “Princess”, both the men and women in the nearby secretarial office turned their heads to watch.

The Mo family’s Little Princess was not someone they could easily meet. The Mo family protects her very well, and she rarely comes to the office.

Under the bright corridor lights, Mo Weiyi’s pretty face beamed brilliantly, “Zhong Kai, where’s Xiaobai?”

Zhong Kai hesitated for a moment before answering, “Erm, Mr. Xiao… Mr. Xiao… ”

“Is he in a meeting?”

“No.”

“Then what is he doing?” Mo Weiyi tilted her head, her innocent and sweet demeanor highlighting her bright cat eyes.

If she finds another woman in Mr. Xiao’s office, she probably won’t look so sweet. Zhong Kai thought to himself while stammering, “Mr. Xiao… Mr. Xiao… ”

After watching him hesitate, Mo Weiyi’s refined eyebrows furrowed as she slightly squinted her cat eyes.

The next second, she moved toward the President’s office.

The two waitstaff lifting her bags of goods dutifully followed.

Zhong Kai hastily followed, “Princess, Princess, please don’t misunderstand!”

If he hadn’t said anything, Mo Weiyi wouldn’t have rushed. But now, her steps quicken.

With a hardened gorgeous face, she arrived at the office door, swung the door wide open without knocking.

The loud crash startled the woman inside, causing her to spin around in shock.

“Miss Mo?”

Wearing a channel dress, Tian Ye’s hair styled beautifully, and features stunning, her expression was surprised, and seemed to hold a degree of anxiety.

But none of that mattered.

What mattered was that she was holding Xiao Yebai’s coat.

Her brightly distinguished cat eyes instantly fell on the coat.

Tian Ye looked down, following Mo Weiyi’s gaze, and quickly set down the coat on the black office chair by her.

Mo Weiyi lifted her chin and shot her a cool look, “Miss Tian, can you explain why you’re here in my husband’s office? And why were you holding his coat?”

“Miss Mo, you really mustn’t misunderstand.” Tian Ye quickly replied.

“What am I misunderstanding?” Mo Weiyi looked at her and sneered, “This is a straightforward matter, isn’t it? Weren’t you just holding my husband’s coat in your hands? Isn’t this his office?”

Zhong Kai had already chased her in. He pushed aside the two waitstaff carrying bags to hurriedly explain, “Princess, you mustn’t misunderstand.”

Mo Weiyi’s face instantly got colder, “And you’re also telling me not to misunderstand?”

Suddenly, she turned to look at the lounge.

The door was closed.

She clenched her fingers and suddenly strode towards it.

“Princess!” Zhong Kai’s voice was loud, as if trying to provide a warning.

But by then, Mo Weiyi had already arrived at the entrance to the lounge. She reached out, but as soon as she touched the doorknob, the door was opened from inside.

Xiao Yebai stood behind it.

He wasn’t wearing his glasses, his hair slightly tousled, brows furrowed, and his handsome face was slightly flushed.

He was still decently dressed, black shirt, dark cashmere sweater, black trousers, a perfect fit, only revealing a few undone shirt buttons.

After Mo Weiyi swiftly scanned him and found nothing… suggestive on his neck or collarbone, she felt a sense of relief.

“What are you doing here?” Xiao Yebai’s voice sounded in the ensuing silence.

Mo Weiyi walked forward and hugged his arm, then turned to Tian Ye and asked with the air of the main lady of the house, “I should be asking you that, why is this woman here?”

Xiao Yebai looked down at the beautiful woman clinging to him, “I asked, what are you doing here?”

His face was expressionless, looking slightly harsh and aggressive without his glasses.

Mo Weiyi pouted, wondering why she blurted out, “It’s my family’s company, isn’t it normal for me to be here?”

Xiao Yebai looked at her. Without the glasses to filter his emotions, his eyes were blackest black, showing clear signs of coldness.

He said, “However, this is your family’s company. You have every right to be here whenever you want.”

Mo Weiyi was shocked and hurriedly tried to apologize, “Xiaobai, I didn’t mean it like that, I…”

But it was too late.

The complexion on Xiao Yebai’s face cooled noticeably, although his voice remained calm, “So, what is the actual reason for your visit?”

“I….” Mo Weiyi was at a loss for words.

Her hands, clutching the shopping bag and coffee, unconsciously clenched tightly. Her face turned increasingly pale.

As she looked at the man’s cold profile, she felt as if a cloud of darkness had engulfed her heart making her suffocate in agony.

She tried to explain, “Xiaobai, don’t be angry. I really…”

“If there’s nothing else, go ahead, I still have work to do.” Xiao Yebai sat down behind his desk, picked up his glasses and smoothly slipped them onto his nose, reverting back to his usual calm and indifferent demeanor.

His face devoid of any emotion, his movements steady and unhurried, he turned on his computer. His focus was seemingly on the screen, but his demeanor suggested he was distancing himself from everyone else.

This was exactly how he was before they got married. Every time she tried to get close to him, he would be just like this…

Tian Ye’s voice rang out gently, “Yebai, I’ll leave now.”

“Alright.”

“Wait!” Mo Weiyi abruptly demanded, “You haven’t told me why you’re here? Why do you have…”

“Zhong Kai.” Xiao Yebai cut her off calmly, “Take the princess home.”

Mo Weiyi was vexed: “I’m not going anywhere!”

“Zhong Kai!”

Zhong Kai had to step forward, pleading softly, “Princess, let me take you home first.”

Mo Weiyi looked at Xiao Yebai, a hint of red showing in her eyes, her voice choked, “Won’t you explain this to me?”

But Xiao Yebai didn’t even lift his head.

The atmosphere in the office became unbearably tense.

After a few seconds, Mo Weiyi abruptly threw the shopping bag and coffee onto the floor with a loud clatter before turning to run out of the office.

“Princess!” Zhong Kai panicked and quickly followed after her.

The two servers stood at the corridor, each still holding a bag of takeout. They exchanged unsure looks, uncertain of what to do next.

Tian Ye withdrew her gaze and glanced at the man still maintaining his impassive demeanor. She cautiously began, “Yebai, Miss Mo seems to have misunderstood…”

“You can leave now too.”

“Would you like me to explain to Miss Mo? Actually, I was just…” Tian Ye hesitated.

“Need me to arrange a ride for you?”

Tian Ye: “…”

Having known Xiao Yebai for seven years, she was quite familiar with his personality.

What Mo Weiyi said earlier, intentionally or inadvertently, had hurt his pride, the most sensitive part of him.

Not to mention that her and that assistant were there at the scene.

Due to his unique position, he had to put in twice the effort to earn the Mo Family’s approval and trust. Regardless of how extraordinary he was, he was just the adopted son and son-in-law of the Mo family…

With a heavy heart, she softened her voice even more, “Then I’ll take my leave. You must take care of yourself, remember to take your gastric medication. If you feel unwell, you must go to the hospital for a checkup. We can’t neglect a stomach disease.”

Xiao Yebai didn’t respond.

Left with no choice, Tian Ye picked up her coat and bag, and gently left the room.

The office quieted down.

Only the occasional sound of fingertips tapping on a keyboard echoed in the room.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yebai finished reviewing a document. He got up to leave but stepped on something.

Looking down, he saw a beige scarf peeking out of the shopping bag, covered in a large coffee stain. The dark carpet was wet from the coffee that spilled from the shattered cup.

The dark depths of his eyes flickered momentarily. Then, he stepped over it and walked away.

**

Upon reaching the ground floor, Mo Weiyi waved down a taxi.

Clad only in a thin suit, Zhong Kai shivered in the cold wind. He stuttered, trying to explain, “Princess, you’ve misunderstood. Xiao just had a social engagement and had a bit too much to drink…”

“Shut up!”

“Princess, you’ve truly misunderstood Xiao. He didn’t do anything…”

“I said shut your mouth!”

“Then… Princess, let me take you home. It’s hard to get a cab from here.”

No sooner than he finished his sentence, a taxi pulled up in front of them. Zhong Kai’s face fell crudely. Before he could ask the driver to leave quickly, Mo Weiyi had already gotten in and drove away hastily.

Left shivering by the roadside, Zhong Kai was worried. But he couldn’t do anything other than returning to the office.

Having reached the top floor, he found the CEO’s office door tightly shut.

After some thought, he plucked up the courage to knock.

“Come in.” Xiao Yebai’s voice was deep and chilly.

Zhong Kai took a deep breath and walked in, “Xiao, Princess got in a taxi and left.”

“You may leave.” From behind his desk, the man didn’t lift his head.

Zhong Kai swallowed hard, suggesting with good intentions, “Xiao, how about giving Princess a call to explain? You were just socializing and had a bit too much to drink. Your gastric issue was triggered…”

“Get someone to clean the carpet.” Xiao Yebai glanced at him coldly, “It’s dirty.”

Zhong Kai looked at the ruined carpet. His facial muscles twitched, “…Alright.”

He had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Dammit!

At this time, should he really be worried about whether the carpet is dirty?

What the hell!

Xiao’s personality of not explaining himself and stubbornness combined with Princess’s childish temperament…I’m at my wit’s end!

By the time Su Wanwan received Mo Weiyi’s call, it was already past seven in the evening.

She was originally preparing to study in the library. But upon hearing Mo Weiyi’s disoriented, drunken voice on the phone, she rushed out of the campus and immediately took a taxi to the club.
