Chapter 144: Gentleman

“It’s a preposterous argument! It’s all a preposterous argument!” Ye Erruo said through gritted teeth.

“He he… Tell us, little sister-in-law, how did our chief manage to capture your heart?”

“…”

Their chief was really different from others when it came to chasing girls.

He pushed his way through and would not take no for an answer! Rejecting him would result in a death sentence!

This was a great idea that was very much his style.

“But if the girl doesn’t like you, how can you get her into bed with you?”

“Ha ha ha… Xiao Deng, let me tell you…”

Xiao Deng picked up the pair of chopsticks beside him and pretended to throw it across the table. “Quit horsing around!”

“How can you say that I’m fooling around? Haven’t you been going after that girl for a long time? Chey!”

“…”

“Xiao Deng has been chasing after that girl for two years already. He finally managed to hold her hand recently. Judging from the speed at which their relationship is developing, he’ll have to wait ten years before she’ll bear a child for him.”

“I’m a gentleman. A gentleman has to respect a girl,” he rebutted indignantly.

“Yeah… You better learn from our chief. What’s there to say about love? Is there a need to be a gentleman? Don’t be silly!”

Xiao De fixed his eyes on Mo Jiangye and probed, “What if we did it and she got mad at me? What should I do?”

“Ha ha ha ha… Boss, what should he do?” Xu Xu asked with interest.

“You just keep doing it with her until you win her heart.” The man shot a glance at the man in question while continuing to deshell a prawn for his love.

“Isn’t this considered playing dirty?” Xiao Deng was bothered by the reply.

“Don’t teach him to do the wrong thing.” Ye Erruo elbowed her man.

“There’s a caveat to his tactic. The girl you have been chasing must be interested in you as well, but your relationship has to reach a certain level of maturity before you do it with her. If you do that with her when she’s not interested in you, then it’ll be…” She trailed off as she counseled him.

Her man’s orbs turned pensive. She’d had no feelings for him at all initially. In fact, she had detested him. Had he forced himself on her? So what if that was true? Isn’t this how I kept her by my side?

“That’s right. Sister-in-law’s words are true. She must have been in love with our chief, which is why he won her heart in the end!”

Mo Jiangye did not comment.

Soon, the men at the table turned rowdy with jokes and laughter.

“Young Madam, someone is looking for you again.” A servant brought in a bowl of soup, placed it next to Ye Erruo, and whispered in her ear as she passed her the cell phone.

She took the phone quizzically with furrowed brows. “Oh, really?”

“Xiao Ruo, Gu Feirou is blind now. She needs a cornea transplant if she wants to see again. Why are there so many men over at your place? Where are you?” Ji Sichen asked.

It was too noisy at the dining table, so she got up to find a quiet spot to take this call. Mo Jiangye held her back with his hand. “Where are you going?”

“I’m taking a call. It’s from Ji Sichen.”

He put the prawn that he had deshelled for her into her mouth.

“Senior, I’ll return your call shortly.” She spoke into the phone as she munched on the prawn.

“Gu Feirou is blind,” Ye Erruo whispered.

Mo Jiangye had no expression on his face. Of course, he had known that long ago!

She should consider herself fortunate that only one of her eyes was damaged. She should have known that she would stay blind for the rest of her life when she’d chosen to harm his woman. No hospital would dare to find a new cornea for her without his order!

“What? Was that the man who tried to take a dig at our chief again?” Whoever dared to claim to be little sister-in-law’s lover in front of their chief was courting death!
