CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 897. Lu Moqing is completely dead.

Chapter 897: 897. Lu Moqing is completely dead.

Xia Yumo was left somewhat speechless by her series of questions.

"The date isn’t even set yet, so why are we talking about marriage? As I’ve said before, let things take their course. We’ll take it one step at a time."

Xia Yumo didn’t want to talk much about her relationship with Gu Junhang to Qiaoxu, fearing it would remind her of Lu Moqing and make her uncomfortable. So, she subtly changed the topic and said:

"Today, a new dessert shop opened at Hongrun. The flavor is great, sweet but not greasy. I know you like sweets, so I specially came to find you to try it."

Qiaoxu was not in the mood for sweets, but she knew Xia Yumo was worried about her and came to cheer her up on purpose.

She didn’t brush off her kindness, agreeing with a nod.

"Alright."

However, as soon as the two of them arrived at the dessert shop and before their mood adjusted, Qiaoxu encountered someone even more annoying.

Su Suqin didn’t expect to meet Qiaoxu while catching up with her best friend over dessert.

These past few days have probably been the most comfortable days of her life, as she had been stifled in front of Qiaoxu for so long. That day at Old Man Lin’s birthday banquet, she was humiliated by Lin Jingshu and her lover, making her feel extremely uncomfortable lately.

But perhaps God started to sympathize with her, as Qiaoxu’s biggest backer, Lu Moqing, was now in trouble.

Although Lu Moqing’s whereabouts were still unknown, there was a 90% chance he was done for.

Without Lu Moqing, what did Qiaoxu amount to?

Especially now that even the Lu’s were on the verge of collapse.

As for Qiaoxu, without Lu Moqing, the Lu family, and the Qiao family, she wondered if she could still be as arrogant as before.

Now, Su Suqin was not afraid of Qiaoxu at all. She even seemed to resent that she wasn’t miserable enough. As soon as she spoke, she jabbed at Qiaoxu’s heart.

"I didn’t expect to run into you just by coming out for some dessert, it seems I really have some fate with Mrs. Lu."

Qiaoxu was annoyed just by seeing Su Suqin, with no interest in arguing with her.

She wasn’t even willing to give Su Suqin a glance and was about to push open the door to enter the dessert shop.

Seeing Qiaoxu ignoring her, Su Suqin thought Qiaoxu was afraid of her. Remembering the humiliations she had suffered at the hands of Qiaoxu, she couldn’t possibly let her leave quietly now.

"I thought with Lu Moqing in trouble, you’d be hiding in your bed crying. I didn’t expect you to still have the mood to come out for dessert. It’s such a waste of Lu Moqing’s efforts to protect you. If he knew that you’re out eating dessert before he’s even dead, who knows how disappointed he’d be in you."

Qiaoxu stopped in her tracks, her face instantly covered in a cold frost.

Seeing Qiaoxu stop, Su Suqin became even more smug, continuing to poke at her heart, saying:

"Even though he’s not dead yet, you’re already in the mood for dessert. If he’s really dead, would you celebrate with fireworks and remarry with that drag? With that face of yours, those widowed or divorced old men would still be willing to marry you, you... "

Before she could finish her sentence, her face was slapped by Qiaoxu.

She didn’t expect Qiaoxu, facing such a difficult situation, wouldn’t try to please her but would slap her in public.

"Qiaoxu, you... you still dare to hit me!"

She covered her face, her eyes filled with angry red fire, staring at Qiaoxu.

Seeing Qiaoxu shaking her numb wrist, she said, "I almost forgot, my Moqing said that you have thick skin and should be hit with slippers so it won’t hurt."
