Chapter 104: Busy Bee

Jin MO had already arrived at the restaurant. He sat at a table in a corner and placed one hand on the dining table. His fingers were very fair.

Xing Shu had always known that Jin MO had an air of elegance about him.

During her college years, there were many admirers who professed their love for Jin MO on a daily basis. However, Jin MO would always gently reject them. He gave off a different vibe from Cheng Lang. Cheng Lang radiated a sense of distance; it was a wild wish to get close to him. Jin Mo—on the other hand gave a boy-next-door, good egg vibe that is gentle and approachable. But in actual fact, he was like flowing water that slips through one’s fingers—unable to catch or hold on to.

Xing Shu walked over. “Senior, I’m sorry for asking you out last minute. Did I mess up your plan?”

Jin MO raised his head and looked at Xing Shu with a gentle smile. “No, it’s my honor that you want to treat me to a meal.” He stood up and pulled out a chair for Xing Shu. Then, he handed the menu over like a gentleman. “Take a look and see what you would like to eat.”

Xing Shu pushed the menu back. “Senior, you order. I’m fine with anything.”

Jin MO nodded and asked the waiter over to take their order. After ordering, the two of them chatted. Xing Shu asked curiously, “Senior, are you still writing scripts this year?” As the most talented screenwriter, Jin Mo’s past scripts had propelled many celebrities to fame. Some of them had even catapulted to the stratosphere of superstardom. Many of the current A-listers in the entertainment industry had Jin Mo’s scripts to thank for their fame. Hence, Jin Mo’s status in the entertainment industry was not inferior to Cheng Lang’s in the corporate world.

“I’m still thinking about it. I wanted to write a script for the mystery genre this time, so I went overseas for inspiration a while back.” Jin MO crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking relaxed and satisfied. ‘You don’t have time to watch television dramas, right? You’ve always been a busy bee.”

Xing Shu replied, “I do have time to watch an episode or two. I’ve seen the ethics drama you wrote before. It’s quite good.”

Jin MO laughed. “You haven’t changed much. You’re still the same, like during your college days.”

Back then, Jin MO and Xing Shu had met in Beijing University. It was Xing Shu’s final year, and Jin MO had been invited back to Beijing University to guest lecture for a month. Xing Shu was preparing her graduation thesis and needed to do a lot of research. She practically lived in the library and almost got locked in there several times. That was when Jin MO appeared. It was raining. He held a black umbrella and walked over from afar.

“Senior.” Xing Shu remembered greeting him like this. Jin MO looked up at her as he held the key to the library in his hand. It was already past 11 p.m., and the library had long since closed. However—due to the rain she could only wait for the rain to stop since she did not have an umbrella.

“Xing Shu?” Jin MO opened the door of the library and said, “Come in and seek shelter from the rain. I have to do some research and might have to stay up all night.”

This was exactly what Xing Shu needed. She subsequently graduated with honors. Her thesis received a distinction grade, and was even posted on the official website by the faculty advisor. Therefore, Jin Mo’s impression of Xing Shu was rigorous, serious, and clear-headed. The Xing Shu now was still the same.

Xing Shu asked for a glass of fruit juice and smiled. “I’ve changed a little. Senior, you’re the one who hasn’t changed much.”

Jin MO chuckled. “Do you have any other plans today? Do you want to visit the set later?”

Xing Shu was indeed very curious about filming. She wanted to say yes, but she remembered Cheng Lang’s message. Coincidentally, her cell phone vibrated at this moment probably a new message. However, she did not look at it as it was not polite to look at her cell phone at this time.

Xing Shu looked at Jin MO and shook her head helplessly. “I would love to go, but President Cheng suddenly asked me to prepare a document. I have to go back and work overtime later.”

Jin MO asked, “Isn’t it the weekend today? Is Cheng Lang such a slave master?”

Just then, Xing Shu’s cell phone rang. “Sorry, I have to take this call.” She whipped out her cell phone and saw three big words flashing on the screen—Mr. Sugar Daddy. This was a name she had casually saved on impulse. Faced with the embarrassment of being seen by Jin MO, Xing Shu’s face heated up and she hurriedly pressed the answer button. “President Cheng.” She wished she could hide under a rock. No matter how thick-skinned one was, they would still feel embarrassed and awkward now.

Jin MO lowered his eyes.

Just then, the door of the restaurant was pushed open. Liu Chun walked into the restaurant with a few socialites in the Beijing upper-class circle. She immediately saw Xing Shu, who was on the phone. She frowned and lamented her bad luck. She then saw a man sitting opposite Xing Shu. The potted plants in the corner blocked her view, so she could only see the man’s white suit..
