40 Chapter 40

Jiang Moxi caught the emphasis on the word "lesson" in the man's words. He intentionally added weight to his tone, causing her ears to turn slightly red.

But she still smiled and answered, "If Third Master Fu feels the need for a lesson, I won't refuse."

Fu Youhan's sharp, eagle-like eyes narrowed as he attempted to discern other emotions from her gaze, but just as the elevator door "dinged" open at that moment.

Jiang Moxi immediately turned over and got off his lap smoothly.

As if none of the intimate moments had happened just now, she pushed him into the private room.

After that, she changed back into her waitress uniform and resumed her work as usual.

Fu Youhan didn't ask further about her and Fu Yiming's affairs.

As if between them, there was only a normal relationship between a customer and a waitress.

Tonight, the person accompanying Ye Chen was still not Yu Dingding.

An Yang was dressed in a fishtail dress, softly leaning against Ye Chen's embrace.

"Young Master Ye, I didn't pay attention and drank a lot of iced lemon tea!"

"Is iced lemon tea not good? Then how about I get you a cup of iced coffee?"

Ye Chen swirled the red wine glass, his lips still carrying the gentle curve that could make women swoon.

"You're mean! I meant to say that my period is coming in a few days, and drinking cold beverages will give me cramps."

"Oh, I see. Then I'll have someone prepare some painkillers for you later."

The man's indifferent look made An Yang once again resort to being cute to resolve the embarrassment.

Jiang Moxi, holding the drinks, couldn't help but sneak another glance at the two.

She could even discern An Yang's implied meaning, and she didn't believe that Ye Chen, who mingled among women, couldn't catch on either.

But facing An Yang's coquetry, Ye Chen could only chuckle throughout.

This reminded Jiang Moxi of a previous incident when Ye Chen personally made ginger brown sugar water for Yu Dingding during her menstrual period.

She couldn't help but think that Ye Chen still cared a bit about Yu Dingding.

Otherwise, he could treat her just like he treated An Yang.

But if he truly cared, why did he let Yu Dingding go to the eighth floor?

While Jiang Moxi was lost in thought, a cold male voice suddenly came from behind.

"Leave work and come with me."

Jiang Moxi turned around in surprise and saw Fu Youhan with cold eyes.

She furrowed her eyebrows slightly, realizing that Fu Youhan really intended for her to attend the "lesson" tonight.

Still, she nodded and left the private room with the tray.

As Jiang Moxi left, Ye Chen's teasing comment followed as expected, "Oh, did you guys make up already?"

Fu Youhan took a sip of his drink and replied, "No."

In fact, he and Jiang Moxi couldn't be said to have made up or not. He hadn't intended to let her repay him tonight with her body for the favor he did for her.

But when he saw her staring absentmindedly at Ye Chen, he felt uncomfortable. So uncomfortable that he wanted to ruin everything.

"Why are you still spending time with her after work?" Ye Chen prodded on.

Fu Youhan glanced at Ye Chen's gossipy expression, his lips curling coldly.

"And why do you call her 'baby' but let your 'baby' accompany someone else?"

"I can't argue with you." Ye Chen immediately dropped the gossiping expression, laughing mockingly.

Later, he got drunk.

An Yang offered to send Ye Chen back, but Ye Chen insisted that he wanted his devoted bodyguard, Yu Dingding, to escort him.

In the end, the manager had no choice but to personally go to the eighth floor, invite Yu Dingding up, and send Ye Chen back...

Jiang Moxi finished work and, as arranged, got into Fu Youhan's car.

Upon arriving at the Tianqin Bay Villa, Chi Jing sensibly drove away.

Once inside the villa, Fu Youhan went directly to the bathroom.

Jiang Moxi decided to sit on the sofa and checked the new messages on her phone.

Fu Yiming sent the most messages, mostly threatening Jiang Moxi not to tell Fu Youhan about the SereniFlex Pill incident.

Jiang Moxi couldn't be bothered to read the contents and simply deleted the messages.

Besides Fu Yiming, there was also a message from Mu Wanting.

She sent a difficult calculus problem and then a screenshot of a certain live broadcast room.

The picture showed Xiao Zhong giving a live lecture on calculus, and Mu Wanting's account "MM" repeatedly commented on the calculus problem from earlier.

Then, Mu Wanting sent her a text message, "Moxi, that Xiao jerk is definitely incapable of solving this problem. Look, he doesn't even dare to respond to me!"

Jiang Moxi chuckled and replied, "Why is he 'Xiao the jerk' now? Wasn't he 'Xiao the male god' before?"

Mu Wanting was quick to reply because she was playing with her phone. "He's targeting you so openly, shattering the positive image I had of him in my heart."

Jiang Moxi replied, "He's targeting me, not you. You don't have to take it to such an extreme."

"He's targeting you much more than me. Don't you know our relationship is fated and preordained in the course of time? Now I feel like tearing him apart with my own hands!"

Mu Wanting quickly sent Jiang Moxi another screenshot.

The screen still showed Xiao Zhong giving a lecture, but the comments in the live chat had taken a different tone.

"Teacher Xiao, MM is asking you a question, reply to him!"

"Teacher Xiao isn't ignoring the comments; he just can't solve that problem, right?"

"He can't even solve a problem sent by a netizen. How can he claim to be the most outstanding math teacher at Top One University?"

Jiang Moxi knew that Mu Wanting was deliberately putting Xiao Zhong in a difficult position for her sake.

In truth, she wasn't too concerned about these comments, but seeing Mu Wanting so eager and anxious for this matter made her realize that studying at the Technical Institute wasn't a waste of time after all.

At least, she had made genuine friends here...

Lost in thought while staring at her phone, Jiang Moxi suddenly heard a familiar male voice.

"What are you looking at?"

She turned around to see Fu Youhan, dressed in a dark gray bathrobe, with a few droplets of water in his ink-black hair, and his gaze deep and dark.

"Nothing."

Jiang Moxi put away her phone and was contemplating whether to take a shower when the man leaned down and kissed her.

Then, everything became uncontrollable.

Jiang Moxi only remembered being teased and played with, and it seemed like the man whispered in her ear during the haze.

"Ye Chen is not right for you..."

She wanted to ask him why he associated her with the playboy Ye Chen.

But she was too exhausted, too tired even to keep her eyes open.

In the end, all her questions were carried away into her dreams...

--

The next morning, Jiang Moxi received a call from Yu Man.

"Where did you go last night? Do you think this house is a hotel? If you really don't want to stay in this house, why don't you just move out?"

Jiang Moxi had just woken up and answered the phone without checking the caller ID.

Upon hearing Yu Man's barrage of questions, she realized that she had picked up Yu Man's call.

"I was out last night..." Jiang Moxi was about to come up with an excuse for her night out.

But Yu Man interrupted her before she could finish.

"I don't care what you did last night or where you are now. You must come home within half an hour and go with us to the Cultural Center to see Weiwei's photography exhibition!"

After saying that, Yu Man hung up the phone directly.

Jiang Moxi stared at her phone for a while before forcing a bitter smile.

In fact, the only reason why Yu Man proactively called her was probably to get her to join them in going to the Cultural Center to see Jiang Weiwei's photography exhibition.
