Chapter 2231 In the Past, I Was the One Who Carried You Down the Mountain

"On business trip?"

Tan Qingqing's delicate and fair face changed into several expressions in an instant.

His head, which was originally lowered, almost hit Mo Ziyi's face when he raised it suddenly.

Mo Ziyi's head subconsciously tilted back a little. Although they didn't hit each other, their breaths were intertwined at such a close distance.

The air was inexplicably tinged with subtlety.

"Well, it's a business trip."

He stared at her a little deeper.

"What if I won just now?"

Tan Qingqing suddenly took two steps back and asked while keeping a safe distance from him.

She finally knows now.

He called her to climb the mountain early in the morning and even placed bets for this purpose.

Mo Ziyi's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly. His elegant and noble temperament made Tan Qingqing feel dazed for a moment.

In the eighteen years that I have been with him, I have seen his smile like this countless times.

But now that I see it, I feel a little confused.

"Can you beat me?"

Mo Ziyi asked casually.

But he was determined that he would win today's competition.

Tan Qingqing pursed her lips and said stiffly, "I can agree to go back to work in Haochen, but I won't go on a business trip."

"Why?"

"I don't want your girlfriend to misunderstand, and I don't want to be thrown into a different place again."

"Qingqing, were you angry that day?"

Mo Ziyi's voice suddenly became lower and gentler, with a hint of helplessness and the doting she was familiar with in the past.

Tan Qingqing's heart suddenly tightened.

Instinctively deny, "I'm not angry, I just don't want something like that to happen again, so I won't go on a business trip with you."

"Shi Xi won't go this time."

"I'm not going anyway."

Tan Qingqing had an expression that said, "I won't go no matter what," she felt unhappy and didn't want to follow him.

She didn't know that she looked jealous.

Looking at Mo Ziyi, his eyes narrowed, "Do you want to be with Ye Zhan?"

"What's wrong with Ye Zhan?"

Tan Qingqing frowned, a hint of displeasure appeared on her face.

Mo Ziyi snorted, "Doesn't it matter? Who said last night that Ye Zhan is the boyfriend that grandpa and grandpa found for you. He is a man that they both like."

Having said this, his expression turned cold.

His eyes were focused on Tan Qingqing, who was retreating without trace, a few steps away from him.

He felt uncomfortable in his heart, "You don't want to go on a business trip with me, isn't it to cultivate a relationship with Ye Zhan?"

"Yes, I almost forgot if you didn't tell me."

Tan Qingqing had a look of surprise on her face, "Brother Ziyi, didn't you say you wanted to introduce me to a boyfriend before? If I like Ye Zhan, I don't have to trouble you anymore. What's wrong with that?"

When these words came out, the atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense.

The air seemed to freeze due to this.

Mo Ziyi's originally cold brows were covered with a layer of frost, and Tan Qingqing's gaze was cold and sharp.

It seems like I have returned to a certain scene four years ago.

When she broke up with him, and when she was leaving the country.

That's how he looked at her.

Now, he looked at her with this look again.

Tan Qingqing couldn't stand his look and wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, Mo Ziyi's cell phone rang.

He pursed his thin lips and took out his mobile phone.

When he saw the caller ID, his eyes changed.

Pressing the answer button with a long finger, the chill between his brows was replaced by a hint of coolness, and a calm voice overflowed his thin lips, "Hey, Shi Xi."

Tan Qingqing lowered her eyelids and looked at her toes.

She didn't know what Shi Xi said on the other end of the phone, but she heard Mo Ziyi ask, "What time is the flight?"

Pursing her lips, Tan Qingqing turned around and walked down the mountain.

Behind her, Mo Ziyi's eyes followed her back, and the temperature in his eyes cooled down again as she turned and left.

When Tan Qingqing went up the mountain, she took a small path in order to win.

But the result is still lost.

When going down the mountain, I gave up the path and took the "high road."

After descending the ten or so stone steps, her cell phone rang.

It was Tang Jinchen's call.

Tan Qingqing answered the phone, but before she could speak, Tang Jinchen's voice came, "Qingqing, where did you go so early in the morning?"

"I come out to exercise."

"A-Zhan and I are waiting for you to come back for breakfast. Come back quickly."

"Cousin, you don't have to wait for me to have breakfast. I ran far away and won't be able to get back until very late."

"How far can you run?"

Tang Jinchen didn't seem to believe it.

Qingqing chuckled, "I ran to the top of the mountain, not far away."

She looked down the mountain. Although going down the mountain was not as tiring as going up the mountain, her legs were a little weak.

Not fast either.

There were footsteps behind me.

She hung up the phone.

Mo Ziyi's voice sounded behind him, "If you don't want to go on a business trip, just go back to work in Haochen today."

Tan Qingqing stopped and turned to look at him.

He has handsome eyebrows and a cool complexion.

There is no sullenness or unnecessary emotion.

It made her feel like it was just her hallucination.

She blinked and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll start working today."

The voice with overflowing red lips is also plain and gentle.

Mo Ziyi lowered his eyes, glanced at her legs, and asked calmly, "Can I go down the mountain?"

"..."

Tan Qingqing was stunned for a moment.

After reacting, a flash of embarrassment at the past pretentiousness and willfulness flashed across her delicate face.

In the past, when she climbed to the top of the mountain, Mo Ziyi would mostly carry her on her back.

The reason is simple: my legs are weak and I can’t get down.

At that time, he always petted her head lovingly, and calmly squatted down amidst the teasing of others, letting her climb on his back.

"I can."

Mo Ziyi obviously thought of the past. There was a hint of warmth between Qingjun's brows, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curved.

"You weren't so good before. You would always go up to the top of the mountain and then you couldn't get back down. Then I would carry you down."

"That's what you are used to. Who makes you rely on me every time?"

When Tan Qingqing saw him walking to the front, she followed him and couldn't help but accepted his words.

The next second, he was so upset that he wanted to bite off his tongue.

Why are you so quick to talk?

Mo Ziyi in front of her turned her head as if she had eyes in the back of her head, and her eyes fell on the hand she raised to slap her mouth.

He looked at her with deep eyes and said, "In those years, I have always treated you as my future wife. I don't like you to spoil anyone."

"..."

The topic suddenly couldn't continue.

The atmosphere became awkward again.

Tan Qingqing wanted to look away from Mo Ziyi's eyes, but there seemed to be a strong magnetic field in his dark eyes, which deeply attracted her and she could not look away.

"But four years ago, you ended our relationship."

a long time.

Mo Ziyi's voice coldly awakened Tan Qingqing's dazed mind.

He looked away first.

He turned around and waited for a few seconds to see her standing there motionless.

Then he turned to her and said, "Let's go. If you don't come down from the mountain, Tang Jinchen and Ye Zhan will think that I have you under house arrest."
