Hong Kong variety show: The tycoon who emerged from Portland Street
Chapter 102 Digging and digging in Fang Zhixin's corner
"Yes. At the beginning of the year, I thought marriage might change our relationship, so I brought up the idea of getting married, but he rejected me."
"He said he wanted to wait until he got a promotion before getting married."
"Now, I'm actually somewhat relieved that he rejected me that time."
With that, Sandy picked up her glass and drank it down in one gulp.
After hearing Sandy's words, Chen Mo roughly guessed why the two couldn't get married.
Fang Zhixin is now a senior inspector in the police station. He is not old and can be considered young and promising.
However, in terms of both social status and income, he was far behind Sandy, who was already a top lawyer.
Moreover, he was a few years older than Sandy, and Sandy often came into contact with people from various clubs.
Fang Zhixin would habitually try to control her.
Over time, both of them felt the pressure.
Chen Mo was secretly delighted; the corner of the wall was already loose enough that he didn't need to dig much.
"Perhaps your subconscious has already realized that your boyfriend isn't a suitable marriage partner!"
Chen Mo quickly dug it down with a hoe.
Sandy was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Maybe you're right. We might not be as well-matched as we seem."
After saying that, he poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing that she was about to pour more wine, Chen Mo quickly stopped her, saying, "I was just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously!"
"You'll get drunk very easily if you drink like that, you should stop."
"It's okay, I don't get drunk that easily." Sandy pushed Chen Mo's hand away and continued pouring the wine.
"I'm not worried about you getting drunk, I'm worried about your boyfriend getting jealous!"
He gave me the cold shoulder last time, and if I run into him again, I'm afraid he'll shoot me in the back!
Sandy laughed at Chen Mo's words: "Okay, then I won't drink it."
Although Sandy drank less this time than last time, her condition wasn't much better.
Chen Mo drove her home again.
Not long after they set off, Chen Mo noticed that a car was following them.
As they approached Sandy's house, Chen Mo asked, "Sandy, look behind you, isn't that your boyfriend's car?"
Sandy shook her head, stared at the rearview mirror for a while, and then shook her head again: "No, I don't recognize that car."
Chen Mo frowned: "That car has been following us all the way. If it's not your boyfriend, then it's coming for me."
"You hold on tight to the handrail, I'll shake it off."
Chen Mo stepped on the gas, and the car accelerated instantly, without slowing down at all as it passed the entrance to Sandy's residential area.
He didn't know who was following him, and taking Sandy home now would only expose her address and might put her in danger.
After several sharp turns at intersections, Chen Mo finally shook off the car behind him.
After a long time had passed and the car had not yet appeared, Chen Mo slowed down.
"Stop...stop the car..."
Chen Mo turned his head to look when he heard Sandy's voice from the side.
Sandy was gripping the car door handle with one hand and covering her mouth with the other, clearly about to vomit.
Chen Mo quickly pulled over and parked the car.
Sandy immediately opened the car door, got out, and started vomiting.
Chen Mo walked over to her and patted her on the back.
"Are you alright?"
"It's nothing," Sandy waved her hand and straightened up. "I just felt a little carsick. I'm much better now."
Chen Mo's driving skills are mediocre; it's no wonder she gets carsick after several sharp turns.
However, vomiting actually helped her get rid of a lot of the alcohol, which made her more sober.
"Was that car chasing you?"
"Probably. It's normal for people in gangs to be chased."
"You've vomited quite a bit; your stomach must be almost empty. Let me take you to get some sugar water!"
The two got back into the car, and Chen Mo drove Sandy directly to a night market food stall near his home.
"Boss, give her a bowl of red and white wine."
Chen Mo greeted the boss and then led Sandy to a table to sit down.
"What is red and white?" Sandy asked, puzzled.
Just then, the boss brought over a bowl of dessert that was half white and half red, shaped like a yin-yang symbol. "Brother Mo, this is the red and white dessert you ordered."
"Alright, give it to me."
Chen Mo took the bowl from the shopkeeper and placed it in front of Sandy: "Red and white is a combination of red bean paste and tofu pudding. You drank tonight and just threw up, so a bowl of this is just right."
"You only ordered one bowl, aren't you going to drink it?" Sandy couldn't help but ask when she saw that Chen Mo hadn't ordered anything.
"I don't get carsick, and I don't drink much alcohol, so there's no need for me to drink this. Besides, I don't really like drinking this," Chen Mo said with a hint of disdain.
If it weren't for trying to poach Sandy, Chen Mo wouldn't have brought her here to eat this stuff.
Are you kidding me? How can you eat tofu pudding mixed with red bean paste?! It's so sweet!
It was only because girls loved this food that Gang Sheng and Qiu Di often came to eat there that Chen Mo learned about the shop.
For Chen Mo, savory tofu pudding is the only way to go!
Unfortunately, the owner is a native of Hong Kong Island and doesn't know how to make braised soup.
"It's delicious!"
After taking a bite, Sandy couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"The red beans were cooked until very soft, and the tofu pudding was very smooth. It looks beautiful and tastes delicious!"
"If you like it, eat more. There's also a black and white one here, made with sesame paste and tofu pudding; you should like that too."
"Really?" Sandy's eyes lit up, and she immediately called to the owner, "Boss, another bowl of black and white tea, please."
As a lawyer with a comfortable family background, Sandy rarely eats at street food stalls.
Everything here was new and exciting to her.
After finishing two bowls of sweet soup, Sandy was full again.
Chen Mo didn't take Sandy home; instead, he drove straight to his own house.
"That car followed me to your neighborhood, and it might still be lurking around there. Taking you home might put you in danger, so why don't you stay at my place tonight?"
"Isn't this inconvenient? Maybe I should just stay at a hotel?"
Sandy was a little embarrassed.
She dated Fang Zhixin for three years, but never spent the night at his house.
She's finding it hard to accept suddenly moving into the home of a man she's only known for a short time.
"There's nothing inconvenient about it. I have plenty of rooms at home, and I have a girlfriend there too."
Without giving Sandy a chance to refuse, Chen Mo had already driven home.
As soon as he arrived at his doorstep, Chen Mo immediately sensed that someone was secretly watching him.
Chen Mo ignored the people secretly watching him and led Sandy directly into the house.
It's not too late yet; He Min has just finished her tutoring session for the day and is preparing to leave.
Upon seeing Chen Mo return, Gang Sheng and Qiu Di immediately came to greet him.
"Brother Mo, you're back!"
Seeing Sandy following behind Chen Mo, Gang Sheng couldn't help but ask, "Did you bring us another sister?"
"No, no, you've misunderstood!" Sandy quickly denied.
Sandy was already surprised to see that Chen Mo had more than one girlfriend, but now Gang Sheng's words made her feel a little awkward.
"I am Mr. Chen's lawyer. My name is Liang Guixin. You can call me Sandy."
To ease the awkwardness, Chen Mo explained, "Sandy is my lawyer. She just finished handling a case for me. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, she'll be staying here tonight. Please take good care of her."
"Sandy, this is Gangsheng, and this is Qiuti, they are both my girlfriends."
"This is Ms. He Min, my private tutor."
Chen Mo also introduced He Min to Sandy to avoid any further misunderstandings.
