Chapter 244: Chapter 249: Modern Version of Cinderella (9)

Ling Momo felt a warmth in her heart, and she suddenly realized that what she had been concerned about all day was responding to Enson’s message.

Hastily, Ling Momo tapped out a reply on her phone to Enson, "I really appreciate it, I truly didn’t expect you would do such a thing!"

After sending the message, she patiently waited for a response from Enson.

Three minutes later, there was no reaction from her phone. Ling Momo kept picking it up to check, feeling a slight sense of disappointment.

Ten minutes passed, and as Ling Momo was staring blankly at her phone, Chen Wanru lazily sat up from the couch, peeling off the facial mask from her face. She gently raised her hand, patted her cheeks, and looked up to see Ling Momo. Her movements paused for a moment before she continued to pat her face dry.

Chen Wanru noticed Ling Momo still fixated on her phone, oblivious to the fact that Wanru had awoken. Standing up, she lightly coughed to clear her throat, "You’re here."

Only then did Ling Momo look up. Her previously downcast expression instantly brightened into a smile as she hastily stood up and exclaimed, "Sister Chen, you’re awake."

Chen Wanru nodded, walked over to a table, picked up a bottle of toner, took a piece of cotton pad, dampened it, and carefully wiped her face in front of the mirror.

Ling Momo smiled softly, "Sister Chen, I really want to thank you for today. I didn’t expect you to come to my aid."

Chen Wanru remained silent, meticulously applying skincare products to her face while looking into the mirror.

Seeing that Chen Wanru didn’t speak, Ling Momo found herself at a loss for words, simply standing there and watching Wanru busy herself.

Without any makeup, Chen Wanru finished with the primer and turned around, casually tying her hair up. She glanced at Ling Momo and smiled gently, "No need to thank me."

Ling Momo thought Chen Wanru was merely being polite and shook her head quickly, "How can I not thank you? You’ve helped me twice now!"

"If I say there’s no need to thank me, then there’s no need," Chen Wanru said, looking around as if searching for something. Her words were casual, "Ling Momo, if you really want to thank someone, go thank that person."

"That person?" Ling Momo was puzzled and asked reflexively, "Who is that person?"

"Who do you think it is, isn’t it..." Chen Wanru suddenly stopped mid-sentence, her expression becoming slightly stiff. What was she doing? She was always so careful, how could she let something slip out like that?

"Who is it?" Ling Momo, increasingly curious, pressed on after hearing Chen Wanru stop halfway.

Chen Wanru frowned slightly. Li Qingshen had warned her seriously not to utter a word about his affection for Ling Momo, even making her take an oath.

Chen Wanru didn’t dare to cross the line with Li Qingshen.

Now that the conversation had inadvertently come this far, she had to continue somehow.

Moreover, how much longer would it be until this girl realized all the things Li Qingshen had done for her if he kept them a secret?

Deciding to be the good guy this time, Chen Wanru reasoned that as long as she didn’t say the name, giving a hint wouldn’t be breaking her promise. With that thought, she turned to look at Ling Momo again, fell silent for a moment, and then with a sly smile said nonchalantly, "Who else could it be?"
