The Rejuvenation System of Hehuan: Starting with a Young Woman in an Apartment

Hearing Bai Ling's voice, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile inwardly. Before he even turned around, he seemed to hear Bai Ling's smug voice. Chen Mo thought to himself, although it seemed that Bai Ling had succeeded, it was actually him who had succeeded, because this was all bait that Chen Mo had laid, and now Bai Ling had taken the bait.

However, the next moment, Chen Mo pretended to be disappointed, then turned to look at Bai Ling and said to her, "I really didn't expect her to be this kind of person."

"I thought we had found a kindred spirit because we got along so well, but I never expected that he was just after my apartment shares."

"Is it really so hard for someone like me, who doesn't have many years left to live, to meet someone who truly cares about me?"

Seeing this, Bai Ling's smug expression vanished instantly, replaced by sympathy.

Because Bai Ling knew this feeling, she felt a pang of pity that she had to silently endure this loneliness alone.

After all, money doesn't really matter to someone like Chen Mo; he just wants some warmth and affection. But that warmth and affection was forcibly shattered by Bai Ling's selfishness.

After all, Bai Ling was primarily concerned with her own affairs, specifically protecting her apartment from vandalism.

Seeing Chen Mo like this, Bai Ling didn't know what to say for a moment. She just opened her mouth and said to Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, I..."

Seeing Bai Ling like this, Chen Mo couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. See, he had stirred up Bai Ling's emotions again.

The next moment, Chen Mo waved his hand and said to Bai Ling, "It's alright, I understand. This is your good intention. You've shown me the ugly state of my new girlfriend."

"I know all of this is because you have good intentions."

Hearing Chen Mo say this, Bai Ling's already overwhelming guilt was instantly struck, her eyes welled up with tears, and she couldn't speak. Then she said to Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, I..."

Seeing Bai Ling's reaction, Chen Mo knew he had a chance and needed to press his advantage. The next moment, Chen Mo took another step closer, looked at Bai Ling, and said, "Actually, I'm the one who should apologize."

"I've only known this new girlfriend for a day, yet I trust her so much. I must be getting senile."

"But I forgot that you were the one who truly cared about me, with good intentions, and didn't want me to be deceived."

"Your grandfather is my best friend, and you are his granddaughter. You also gave me a job so I could support myself in my old age and didn't hold grudges against me. Logically speaking, I am your elder and should be the one taking care of you, but instead, you are the one taking care of me."

"And you've been under so much pressure in your career, yet you still have to put in so much effort for me. In the end, I don't trust you, but instead trust a complete stranger I've only known for a day. I'm truly ashamed of myself."

"When I get to the other world, I will definitely tell your grandfather that you are a good child."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling instantly broke down. She was fine before, but when Chen Mo mentioned another world and that he wanted to praise Bai Ling in front of her grandfather, she completely lost her composure and broke down instantly.

For Bai Ling, the main reason she has struggled to maintain this business is because of her grandfather. She doesn't want to betray his trust, nor does she want to ruin the business he left behind.

If Bai Ling does this, it means that she wants to be a career woman, which means that she has to take responsibility and face emptiness and loneliness. Therefore, she has nowhere to talk about her bitterness and cannot tell others, otherwise others will take advantage of her.

But Bai Ling didn't expect that Chen Mo was like a mind reader, able to pour out all her grievances in an instant. Of course, if it were just ordinary venting, Bai Ling would not have felt anything.

Bai Ling broke down in her defenses because Chen Mo wanted to speak on her behalf to her grandfather, telling him about her hardships and how good he was. This was exactly what Bai Ling had been thinking and wishing for.

Because everything Bai Ling did was to let her grandfather know that she had not betrayed his trust.

The next moment, Bai Ling couldn't hold back any longer. She threw herself into Chen Mo's arms, hugged him, buried her head in his chest, and cried. She said to Chen Mo, "Uncle Chen, I'm so sorry. I scared your girlfriend away, but you're still so good to me."

"If Grandpa knew I did this to his best friend, do you think he wouldn't forgive me?"

At this moment, Bai Ling's defenses were completely disarmed by Chen Mo. At this moment, Bai Ling was a complete woman, without that hard layer of defense.

Seeing this, Chen Mo's lips curled slightly; he knew he was only one step away from success.

The next moment, Chen Mo said to Bai Ling, "Child, how could I blame you? I believe your grandfather won't blame you either. You're helping me; you're saving your grandfather's friend."

"At least in my eyes, you're a good kid."

After saying that, he directly cupped Bai Lin's face, looked at Bai Ling's face which was covered in tears, and then reached out to gently wipe away the tears on Bai Ling's face.

At this moment, Chen Mo looked at Bai Ling with an extremely doting gaze, while Bai Ling appeared weak and suspicious. The instant she met Chen Mo's eyes, Bai Ling felt as if she were a sailboat sailing on a boundless sea, and had finally reached the shore, finding a place of peace and comfort for her heart. It was a feeling that Bai Ling found very difficult to describe.

It was a feeling that Bai Ling was fascinated by, even longed for, a feeling that made her feel she could find refuge with Chen Mo for the rest of her life. Staring at Chen Mo's doting gaze, Bai Ling was momentarily lost in thought.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mo's eyes lit up instantly, and he thought to himself, "It looks like there's a chance." Chen Mo felt that it was time to press his advantage.

At this moment, Chen Mo stopped wiping Bai Ling's tears, his eyes began to reflect these thoughts, and then he looked at Bai Ling's lips and slowly moved closer.

At this moment, Bai Ling, seeing Chen Mo's face getting closer and closer, also began to come back to her senses. She couldn't help but tremble for a moment, but she did not flinch. Instead, she stared intently into Chen Mo's eyes, her breathing becoming rapid, and you could even hear her heartbeat.
