Chapter 74 Deja vu
Thinking about her food that Mo Li had been eating for the past few years immediately sent some relief inside her. Mo Li had been eating her food almost everyday. That should mean something, right? In Bai Lan’s mind, eating her food was akin to telling her that he already acknowledged her presence!
"What are you waiting for?" She asked. "Once Mo Li comes in here and sees that you still didn’t take this woman out, he will surely fire you from your jobs! Do you know what happens to people who are fired from the Mo Entertainment? Not one of them has been able to find a job again! Mo Li will make sure that you will never be able to find a job again for endangering this company!"
"Bai Lan... your imagination is really getting wilder and wilder." Li Yue mused. She finally raised her head and looked at everyone in the spacious but minimalistic office. "When Mo Li told me that he wanted to marry me... I immediately refused him. However... this attitude of yours is making me rethink my previous decision." Heh, seeing someone beautiful getting angry was really enjoyable. It reminded her of Mo Fang and Sun Fengmian.
"What did you say?"
"You heard me." She shrugged and looked at her phone again.
Li Yue’s nonchalance made her tremble in rage.Bai Lan balled her hands into tight fists, she could feel pure anger shot through her head like a hot lava, melting her insides and preventing her brain from seeing any kind of reasons. "How could Mo Li marry a commoner like you?"
"Aren’t you adopted from the orphanage as well? Therefore, you and I are just the same." Li Yue smirked. "You really think you are so high. However, the only reason why you are here now is because of your mother. I heard your mother Sun Fengmian is already bed ridden, what do you think will happen if she dies? You think you can still hold your position in this company?" A victorious smile slithered on Li Yue’s face. Her information about Bai Lan was not lacking. Meaning, she knew a lot of things that she can use against this woman.
"How dare you talk about my mother like that?" She tightened her fist, she could feel her nails scrape her palms. "I— I am here because of my—" Bai Lan’s face was really hot. However, she realized that Li Yue was only playing with her. How could she lose control and act like an uneducated woman? How could she lower herself to someone like Li Yue? With this in mind, she looked at the security personnel. "Take her away or I will fire you."
"Why would you fire someone that is not your employee?" Mo Li’s cold voice immediately made the atmosphere more tense. He walked inside with his secretaries in tow. Without even glancing at Bai Lan, Mo Li walked towards Li Yue. "Are you okay?"
Heh, being saved even if she was not distressed is really a nice feeling. Li Yue thought inwardly as she smiled at Mo Li and nodded. "You really should talk to your fiance." Li Yue said. "She is really angry, right now."
"Why are you angry?" Mo Li asked Li Yue. "You think Bai Lan is my fiance? Are you jealous? Don’t worry... I will fire her for you." He looked at one of his secretaries. "Take care of the paper works." Then he motioned the security to take Bai Lan out of the office.
This...
Everyone in the room was speechless. This development was too strange.
"Mo Li! What does this mean?" Bai Lan was the first one to recover from Mo Li’s words. She immediately walked towards him. "What are you talking about? Did something happen?" Mo Li didn’t even spare her any glance. "Mo Li—" fear flashed in her eyes. How could that be?
Does Mo Li hate her? She wondered. But... Mo Li loved her cooking so much. She already successfully used her skills to make him love her. Why was this happening now?
"Take her away." Mo Li said as she accepted Li Yue’s phone that she silently handed to him. "What’s this?"
"Nearest mental facility." Li Yue said. "You should ask your men to take her to this place." She looked at Bai Lan’s pale face, a trace of pity flashed in Li Yue’s eyes. "You should take care of your mental health. It seems that you have been hallucinating a lot of things lately."
"You— Mo Li... are you really going to kick me out because this woman came back? What about the moments that we shared? The food that we shared? What about our bond?"
"This is getting troublesome." Mo Li said and looked at the security again. "Do your job properly!"
"Yes Sir!"
"No! Let me go! Until you give me an explanation now... I will not leave this place! Mo Li! Answer me! Are you really going to forget our feelings because she is back? Can you really forget me—"
"Miss Bai... the President didn’t eat the food that you sent." One of the security decided to intervene. "It was us... we are the ones who ate it."
The second security personnel added, "Miss Bai...we apologize but the President would give us the dish that you prepared everyday. For a few months now... all security personnel have been sharing the dishes you make and... and we would bring the leftovers to our family. It was the President’s orders."
"You— You are so cruel!" Bai Lan couldn’t stop the tears from her eyes. "You are so cruel! How dare you play with my emotions like this? How dare you hurt me like this? You— I will kill you!" Of course, these are mere words. The two security personnel were already holding her arm. There was no way that Bai Lan would be able to defeat the two and attack Mo Li.
Seeing this, it was as if something inside Li Yue clicked. She could feel some sort of a deja vu, a familiar feeling that is telling her that this had happened before. She shook the thoughts out of her head. Strange.
Very strange indeed.
