Chapter 1375: Chapter 1375: I Heard That Love Will Come

Xu Chaomu took Xia Chuqing to an exquisite morning teahouse. It had been a long time since Xu Chaomu himself had gone out for breakfast, and today, specifically to find Xia Chuqing, he even got up early.

"Chaomu, sorry about that, it’s not that I intentionally ignored your calls, my phone was just turned off. I needed some time alone to clear my head," Xia Chuqing apologized.

"It’s okay, I’m relieved now that I see you. Tell me, what’s bothering you?"

Xia Chuqing pouted, uncertain where to begin.

After a long pause, she rested her head on her hand and said, "I should have known better than to invite Shen’s people for the lecture."

"Hmm? Are the folks from Shen’s bothersome? Did they do something to you?" Xu Chaomu was anxious.

That shouldn’t be possible, right? The company headquarters wouldn’t harbor such malicious individuals.

Xia Chuqing didn’t know how to describe her feelings, sipping on soy milk while resting her head in her hands, looking very troubled.

"You tell me, and I’ll decide what to do for you. If someone really did something wrong, firing them wouldn’t be an issue," Xu Chaomu said.

"That person is really annoying," Xia Chuqing stated bluntly, seeing that Xu Chaomu was apparently unaware that the lecturer was Xiao Mo.

"Hmm? Tell me the name, and I’ll go ask Shen Chi about it."

"He was handsy with me, and even wanted to use his power to make me go along with him," Xia Chuqing deliberately said.

Xu Chaomu felt this issue was very serious and said solemnly, "Tell me the name, and if you don’t know it, I will help you investigate."

"Xiao Mo."

"..." Xu Chaomu’s mouth twitched as he held his forehead, "Are you sure it’s Xiao Mo?"

"Yes," Xia Chuqing replied melancholically.

"That’s impossible, from what I know of him, he wouldn’t do such a thing," Xu Chaomu had firm faith in Xiao Mo.

"I actually hope he did do it," Xia Chuqing held her forehead, "Chaomu, how can you believe everything?"

"..." Xu Chaomu gave Xia Chuqing a disapproving look, realizing she was teasing him.

Xia Chuqing ate her breakfast, her gaze lost as she watched the crowd coming and going outside the window.

"So it was Xiao Mo who gave the lecture, no wonder you’ve been so distracted," Xu Chaomu said, as if everything suddenly made sense.

She already knew that Xia Chuqing fancied Xiao Mo, and had thought that a girl like Xia Chuqing would be more bold, but it turned out to be quite frustrating...

"I’ve told you many times, if you like him, just go for it. The line of people who fancy Xiao Mo could stretch from the north gate to the south gate of your school," Xu Chaomu said.

"Exactly because he’s so outstanding... I don’t dare..."

"Xia Chuqing scared? Now that’s a laugh," Xu Chaomu mocked her.

"What about it, I’m also a reserved young miss," Xia Chuqing pouted.

"Alright, alright, keep being reserved then. I’ve said all I needed to say, don’t expect me or Shen Chi to confess for you. That’s absolutely out of the question," Xu Chaomu said while drinking milk.

"I feel like he doesn’t like me..." Xia Chuqing shook her head.

"Did he say that himself?"

"He didn’t."

"Well, there you have it. As long as he didn’t say it himself, it’s possible. Besides, he doesn’t have a girlfriend, why don’t you take the initiative?"

Having heard Xu Chaomu’s words, Xia Chuqing was still extremely conflicted. She probably feared that if she confessed and was rejected, they couldn’t even remain friends, which would be even more embarrassing.

"Chaomu..." Xia Chuqing shook Xu Chaomu’s arm, "What kind of girl does he like?"

"I don’t know, ever since I’ve known him, he hasn’t had a girlfriend by his side."

"Then why not ask President Shen himself?"

"No need to ask, Shen Chi has never been interested in other people’s privacy."

Although Xia Chuqing had only met Shen Chi a few times, she knew from Xu Chaomu that Shen Chi indeed never concerned himself with others’ privacy.

But Xia Chuqing simply couldn’t make up her mind. She wasn’t usually indecisive, but in this matter, she was completely lost...

"It’s better to make your own decisions about personal matters. First, figure out in your heart if he is the man you want to love for a lifetime. If he is, then be a bit bolder," Xu Chaomu advised.

Xia Chuqing nodded. She really liked him, only feeling that initial flutter of the heart when she saw Xiao Mo.

She knew that love and fondness were different, and she could distinguish them.

"Alright, don’t get hung up, maybe he likes you too, what do you say?" Xu Chaomu encouraged her.

She remembered that while in the United States, Xiao Mo even traded back the lilies from a little girl. At that time, she bet with Shen Chi that Xiao Mo liked Xia Chuqing.

"I don’t think so." Xia Chuqing’s head drooped in dejection. She genuinely didn’t feel it.

Xiao Mo’s attitude towards her was neither cold nor warm; it was simply non-existent.

If he had said even one flirtatious word to her or done something even slightly suggestive, she might have garnered more courage. But it never happened.

"Then keep getting tangled up, Miss Xia, I need to head home," Xu Chaomu said, holding her forehead.

"Don’t go..."

"Chuqing, I’ve given you his contact information, and I informed you right away when he was recovering from his injury in the hospital. If you keep being this indecisive, I won’t be able to help you," Xu Chaomu spread her hands.

The current Xia Chuqing was very different from the Xia Chuqing she first met, who was so confident and smart.

Indeed, no one is immune when it comes to falling in love.

She had been this foolish before too...

Xia Chuqing stared out of the window in a daze, her eyes veiled with a layer of mist: "They say love will come..."

"But you also have to be brave to pursue it," Xu Chaomu added.

The breeze entered gently through the window, and Xu Chaomu quietly drank her milk. Outside the window, there was a large cluster of Chinese roses with a variety of colors, very beautiful.

Xia Chuqing fell silent, quietly eating her breakfast.

Before she left, Xu Chaomu said to her, "Make your own decision."

No matter what Xia Chuqing decided, she would not interfere; she would definitely respect it.

But in her heart, she still hoped Xia Chuqing and Xiao Mo could be together. Xia Chuqing was much more passionate than Xiao Mo, but both were very smart, making them a good match.

Xia Chuqing nodded and said to Xu Chaomu, "Take good care of yourself, take care of the baby in your belly and Xiaobao, I’ll come see you when I have time."

"Mhmm." Xu Chaomu smiled, "You’re not doing a good job as a godmother; Xiaobao hasn’t seen you in a long time."

"Just wait a little longer, I’ll go when I’m on summer vacation."

"Alright, focus on your studies, keep it up," Xu Chaomu said. "If you really have problems with your schoolwork, you could ask Xiao Mo for help, he’s very knowledgeable and will help you."

"Mhmm," Xia Chuqing nodded.

Xu Chaomu knew that Xia Chuqing had been a good student and a dutiful girl since she was young, and she was very obedient.

...

After Xu Chaomu left, Xia Chuqing sat alone in the morning tea shop and ordered another cup of green tea.

The green tea’s aroma was rich, fresh, and pleasant. In this early summer morning, the teahouse was not crowded, making it appear even more peaceful and relaxing.
