C16 A Note Notification!
At this moment, Yuen Mo cleverly wrote a note to Gu Feixi, asking if they should interrupt the meeting. Gu Feixi shook his head, declining the suggestion.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Gu Feixi continued to ask.
Meanwhile, Ann Yuv, who was next to Mo Li, started squealing excitedly. Mo Li abruptly ended the meeting and turned off the video.
"What are you doing?" Mo Li asked Ann Yuv.
Ann Yuv's eyes were sparkling with excitement as she sweetly asked, "What's going on between you and Director Gu? He actually apologized to you in such an important setting. Wait, someone like him? Apologizing?"
Ann Yuv was so shocked she could hardly form a sentence, persistently urging Mo Li to explain everything.
But Mo Li didn't know what to say. She had no idea why Gu Feixi chose this moment to apologize. He was always like this, and she had gotten used to it, but his sudden apology caught her off guard.
Seeing Mo Li had ended the video and left, Gu Feixi informed Yuen Mo to conclude the meeting. He then stood up and called Mo Li.
"Why did you end the meeting?"
"Why did you say those things? They had nothing to do with the meeting, and everyone was watching."
"Those were my true feelings."
Mo Li was at a loss for words because of Gu Feixi, so she chose to remain silent.
"Come have dinner with me tonight."
Gu Feixi thought, since he couldn't turn down Tang Soong's invitation and had to meet Mi Qi'an, he might as well bring Mo Li along to avoid any misunderstandings.
"Why?" Mo Li was upset. Yesterday, they were supposed to have dinner together, but she was left behind.
"Consider it an apology."
"It's really not necessary."
"Dress up a bit tonight. I'll come pick you up early. If your outfit isn't up to par, I'll take you shopping," Gu Feixi said in a tone that sounded more like a command before hanging up.
Mo Li was exasperated. What did he mean by "not up to par"? She thought she looked great in anything. So, she decided to skip work and dragged Ann Yuv to a nearby mall to shop for clothes.
Ann Yuv laughed so hard she nearly doubled over, watching Mo Li constantly criticize Gu Feixi. But to Ann, it was all just sweet banter. She thought if Tang Soong treated her like that, she'd be thrilled.
When the workday ended, Mo Li was all dressed up and ready, waiting in the office. From the window, she could see the cars below until a Rolls-Royce pulled up.
Gu Feixi drove Mo Li straight to the restaurant. On the way, Mo Li asked, "Why are we having dinner together?"
Gu Feixi's expression was indifferent as he focused on driving, not bothering to respond. Seeing this, Mo Li decided to stay silent as well.
When they arrived at the destination, instead of going to the address Tang Soong had sent, Gu Feixi led Mo Li straight to a private room. As they pushed the door open, they found Mi Qi'an and Tang Soong already seated inside.
The three of them, except for Gu Feixi, were stunned, exchanging glances as if time had paused for a few seconds. It wasn't just Mo Li's unexpected arrival that surprised Mi Qi'an and Tang Soong; the most awkward part was that Mo Li and Mi Qi'an were wearing the same outfit!
The latest release from Hg had become a must-have for many fashion-forward women. Mo Li had bought the outfit specifically for the evening, while Mi Qi'an had chosen it to impress Gu Feixi. To their dismay, it turned out to be the exact same dress.
