CHAPTER 101: CHAPTER 101: JUST BE TOGETHER

"Actually, what I wanted to say is, since you have a child already, why not consider just getting together?"

When Rui heard his words, he furrowed his brow and said without thinking, "Are you joking?"

Let’s not talk about whether or not you’re planning on getting married; even if you were, it would be to someone you love.

The thought of being with a complete stranger—it’s impossible.

"You’re so resistant, you surely have someone you like, don’t you?" Mo Han teased inquisitively.

He occasionally glanced over at Rui, trying to discern any unusual emotions.

Unfortunately, Rui’s face remained icy cold, without a hint of emotional fluctuation.

Mo Han had no choice but to give up, letting out a deep sigh.

He secretly grumbled to himself.

To make this eternal iron tree bloom seems quite unlikely.

...

"Rui, do you really have no impression at all of Jingxi’s mommy?" After a long silence, Mo Han spoke up again.

"No." Rui replied irritably, thinking if he had an impression of that woman, he wouldn’t need to be pondering this now.

He would simply go find that woman.

Mo Han was somewhat skeptical of what he said. If it was just a passerby, it might be forgettable.

But if it’s someone you’ve had relations with and you can’t remember, that doesn’t quite make sense, right?

Besides, for the past few years, there haven’t been many women around Rui; he should have some impression.

So, he spoke again, "Rui, think carefully, have there been any women around you these few years?"

Being asked, Rui felt annoyed, just as he was about to say no, a face suddenly flashed through his mind.

His brow furrowed unconsciously.

Speaking of women, there really was one a few years ago.

But Rui had never associated that woman with Jingxi’s situation.

Now, hearing Mo Han ask, he couldn’t help but be a little suspicious.

His eyes squinted slightly, a flicker of light that was hard to detect passed through.

Mo Han, watching the changes in his expression, seeing his eyes squint, got a little excited and asked, "Did you remember?"

Rui did not respond to his question but glanced toward the direction of the office door, saying, "Go find Assistant Ye’s contact information."

Mo Han: "Huh?"

Dumbfounded for a full ten seconds.

Weren’t we discussing Jingxi’s mommy? How did it suddenly jump to Assistant Ye?

Oh my goodness.

Isn’t the topic change a bit too sudden?

"What?" Rui raised an eyebrow and asked.

Mo Han snapped back, feeling a bit baffled.

He opened his mouth and said puzzled, "Rui, can you be serious? We’re talking about Jingxi’s mommy, how did you divert to Assistant Ye?"

If you don’t want to talk, just say so, there’s no need to brush me off like this; it’s disgraceful, you know.

Mo Han mentally added, but dared not to say it out loud.

"Do I look like I’m chatting idly?"

Which eye did you see me being unserious with?

Mo Han quickly waved his hands, saying, "No, no, it’s just that your sudden change in tone is a bit hard to adjust to."

"Have you adjusted now?"

Mo Han nodded. He was already accustomed to such sudden shifts from him.

But each time, it still felt like being caught off guard. Because he simply couldn’t figure out what this master was planning...

"Then go." While Mo Han was in a daze, Rui’s voice eerily rang in his ears.

Startled, he quickly stood up and headed for the door, saying, "Understood, boss."

He answered his question while walking out.
