Chapter 274 Abstaining

"Mo'er..." Gu Beichen couldn't help but frowned and shouted without waiting for Jian Mo's answer.

"Okay!" A faint smile spread across Jian Mo's lips, "No matter what happens, I will wait for you to come back."

Gu Beichen felt slightly relieved at this moment, but more worries spread.

He was afraid...that his leaving would cause certain things to get out of control.

Sensing Gu Beichen's rare uneasiness, Jian Mo gently raised her face and placed a warm kiss on his Adam's apple, "Except for being pursued, I will wait for you to come back for the rest..."

There was teasing in her delicate voice, as if she wanted to break the stiff and solemn atmosphere at the moment.

Gu Beichen lowered his head to look at Jian Mo. When he met her gaze, it was so hot.

But he didn't know if it was because of Jian Mo's provocative kiss on his Adam's apple just now, or because of her words.

The handsome face leaned down... and the kiss came like a violent storm, as if it was going to swallow up Jian Mo.

Jian Mo responded to Gu Beichen's kiss passionately. For two people who had just opened their hearts and fully tolerated each other...the brief separation suddenly turned into a situation where they were already missing each other before they were separated.

Xiao Jing propped his legs on the pillar behind him, looking at his mobile phone with his head lowered... His face lost the joking he had just felt in the car when he wanted to find out the gossip, and became a little more solemn.

Jian Heng's whereabouts suddenly became confusing, which made people feel like a stone was weighing on their hearts.

If Jian Heng was pulled as a scapegoat, who would he replace him with without any background?

After thinking about it, Xiao Jing finally put away his phone, looked forward, and narrowed his eyes slightly...

He didn't know how long they kissed, but when Jian Mo felt like she was about to suffocate, Gu Beichen let go of her.

Seeing her panting and blushing face, Gu Beichen hugged Jian Mo into his arms again with deep eyes, and said quietly, "Wait until I come back..."

Gu Beichen left, and he didn't go upstairs in the end... But before leaving, he took a moment to see Jian Mo.

The air conditioner in the conference room was turned on a little low, and Yu Ziyun was talking about the emperor's draft pitch on Friday.

Now Xiangyu plus Andy, three people who have returned from UCL, can be said to have stolen the show in Los Angeles these two days.

Jian Mo's thoughts were a little wandering. Gu Beichen had been away for three days. The two of them would text and call each other every day, but... the miss did not lessen, but instead became deeper and deeper.

Andy's blue eyes looked at Jian Mo opposite him, feeling a little aggrieved.

Isn't Jane with the pianist?

Why is her boyfriend someone else again?

Andy pouted, feeling that there were more and more obstacles in his pursuit of Jane...

"Jian Mo, if there is no problem, I wish you success!" Yu Ziyun finally said with a smile, "Xiaojing and I will be waiting for your gift for our wedding next week."

Jian Mo collected her wandering thoughts and raised her eyebrows confidently, "Go all out."

Yu Ziyun laughed, and immediately, applause came from the conference room.

Friday.

Due to Jian Mo's participation and the Emperor's attention-grabbing nature, the financial news had already kicked off the bidding competition for this architectural design early in the morning...

Different from four years ago, Xiang Wan was obviously much calmer this time, but he was still nervous.

Jian Mo sat calmly behind the long table in the conference room. She didn't know if it was a coincidence or something, but she was the last one again this time.

While listening to their design concepts being explained one by one, Jian Mo's thoughts were gradually drawn back to the draft for the Emperor's Club.

When did Gu Beichen fall in love with her?

The result of that pitch... was it really his divorce gift to her?

Jian Mo started to doubt...

She didn't think much about it at the time, but when the results came out that day, she called Gu Beichen... The call was clearly connected, but no one spoke.

Now that I think about it, something seems wrong?

Just as Jian Mo was thinking, Ding Dang suddenly pulled down his sleeve.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Ding Dang, and what caught her eyes was the shock and surprise on her face.

"Momo, look..." Ding Dang whispered in a condensed voice, and his expression turned bad.

Jian Mo frowned slightly and followed Ding Dang's line of sight to look at the 3D renderings of the company where he was explaining his design concept. With just one glance, his pupils suddenly dilated.

Xiang Wan's face also became anxious. Her breathing was so rapid that she couldn't help but look at Jian Mo...

Jian Mo listened to the man confidently explaining his design, until finally, he looked at Shang Junhao and said: "The design purpose of our company is based on home, and we hope that in high-end communities, people can regain warmth. thank you all!"

Applause came, some were happy and some were sad.

Jian Mo didn't move, but her expression turned bad...

Her eyes fell on the designer who sat across from him, his eyes filled with anger under questioning.

The designer looked at Jian Mo and frowned, then nodded politely and sat down with a calm expression.

Jian Mo's hand that originally held the pen clenched slightly. She looked at the designer and her breathing gradually became heavier.

If...the design last time was wrong, what about this time?

Can't her designs always clash with other people's ideas?

And...why is it always the Emperor's project?

Questions passed through her mind one after another, and Jian Mo's lips gradually tightened...

Another company has completed its design explanation, and it’s today’s turn, which is also the last company for this pitch... Xiangyu.

Shang Junhao hoped that Jian Mo would bring him a surprise. When he looked at her, there was obvious urgency in his eyes, "I'm going to invite Xiangyu's designers below!"

Ding Dang and Xiang Wan both looked at Jian Mo. At this moment, everyone was at a loss.

Jian Mo clenched her hands, with that company in front... Now, her design has become a waste product that cannot be taken out.

Everyone's eyes fell on Jian Mo. Here, there were two companies that were originally involved in the design of the Emperor's Club... Everyone said they were not curious about Jian Mo's temporary change of design.

However, because of the statement issued by the emperor, no one would lose their job and future because of curiosity... Naturally, no one said anything.

However, when everyone saw the new design plan, they didn't think much about it... After all, it was indeed better.

This time Jian Mo came back from UCL, and everyone was quite curious about her design...

Jian Mo didn't move, but her hands tightened.

Shang Junhao thought she didn't hear it, so he added, "I've invited Xiangyu's designer..."

Ding Dang and Xiang Wan's faces were as bitter as bitter gourds. After they looked at each other, they looked at Jian Mo again.

Jian Mo stood up, and when everyone was expecting it, she secretly gritted her teeth, looked at Shang Junhao and said, "Xiangyu abstains!"
