After the Cannon Fodder Awakens, They Marry the Heroine! - Chapter 13

“Miss Wen Runan, are you willing to accept my pursuit and become my girlfriend?” Li Mo’s pleasant voice rang out in front of Wen Runan, as she extended the bouquet of roses she had personally trimmed and wrapped.

At that moment, not a single employee in the lobby spoke; even their breathing softened slightly.

They were all stunned. Was the person holding the roses and confessing publicly Li Mo? The cold and powerful Jiaheng President in their minds?

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Wen Runan still couldn’t help but blush when she actually saw and heard it. Especially her earlobes, which were enticingly red, making one want to take a bite.

“I… I do!” Wen Runan’s voice wasn’t loud but was incredibly firm.

Wen Runan, with a bright red face and her pounding heart, accepted the bouquet of roses from Li Mo under everyone’s gaze.

The smile on Li Mo’s face grew even more gentle. She immediately opened her arms and embraced Wen Runan, rubbing her chin against Wen Runan’s neck and whispering in her ear, “Hello, Girlfriend.”

Wen Runan’s breathing was erratic. She responded a little dazedly, “H-hello, Girlfriend.”

Oh my god, the great beauty really confessed to me, and in front of so many people! And the confession was right here, under the gaze of so many company employees!

Wen Runan felt that her joy and excitement couldn’t be compared to a hundred fireworks going off at once. Perhaps only a nuclear explosion could barely describe it!

Seeing Wen Runan’s reaction, the smile on Li Mo’s face became much more genuine. No longer restraining her desires, she directly took Wen Runan’s earlobe into her mouth, sucked once, and then gave it a slight, cool bite with her teeth.

Mmm, very springy and soft, just as I imagined.

Ding— The President’s exclusive elevator slowly opened, and an ill-tempered Li Beichen stepped out with a straight face.

What were all the people in the lobby doing? Staring blankly like a bunch of geese?

Following the employees’ gazes, Li Beichen saw two people embracing each other. One of the figures and the clothing were extremely familiar.

Who is Wen Runan hugging? Li Beichen’s expression instantly became serious. And who is this person in the white suit? She just broke up with me, and now she’s hooking up with someone else?

From Li Beichen’s vantage point, he could clearly see Wen Runan’s profile and the roses she held. Other than that, he could only see a tall figure in a white suit tightly embracing Wen Runan.

“Wen Runan, what are you doing?” His possessiveness flared up again. Li Beichen stepped forward, intending to pull Wen Runan out of Li Mo’s embrace.

Li Mo, whose moment was interrupted, let go of Wen Runan’s ear and cast a slightly displeased gaze at Li Beichen. “Shouting loudly in a public place shows you have no manners.”

Seeing Li Mo’s face, Li Beichen’s face instantly turned ashen. Connecting their recent actions and behavior, he exploded.

“You… you two are in that kind of relationship?” Li Beichen looked utterly astonished, his pupils shaking wildly! Although he had fleetingly guessed it, he had thought it more likely they were just close friends.

“Allow me to introduce my girlfriend,” Li Mo threaded her fingers through Wen Runan’s, sharing the warmth of their palms. “If there are no surprises, she’s also my future wife. Little brother, you shouldn’t address her by her full name anymore.”

Li Beichen’s face was green and black. What does ‘shouldn’t address her by her full name’ mean? Does she want me to call Wen Runan ‘Sister’?

“Pfft—” Wen Runan clearly thought of the same thing and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Meeting Li Beichen’s murderous gaze, she coughed lightly and gave an explanation with a smile. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to mock you. I just remembered that I have a girlfriend, so I laughed out of happiness.”

“Wen, Ru, Nan!” Li Beichen gritted his teeth, squeezing the words out one by one. “You are truly something.”

“Li Mo, your brother is so rude. He called me by my name again,” Wen Runan complained, taking a half-step back and hiding behind Li Mo. “His eyes look so scary when he looks at me. Does he want to hurt me?”

Li Mo’s eyebrows twitched. She very cooperatively shielded Wen Runan behind her. “You’ve frightened my girlfriend. Apologize.”

Li Beichen’s face was both black and green. When he caught sight of many employees watching the drama, he felt like he was about to explode.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t you say you wanted to learn from me a while ago?” Li Mo chuckled, her languid gaze falling on Li Beichen. “You lose your patience after less than a month of learning? That won’t do.”

Thinking of his plan, Li Beichen clenched his fists, desperately trying to swallow his anger back down.

Hold it in. I must hold it in. My plan is almost complete. I just need to endure a little longer, and Li Mo will disappear from my sight forever!

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know the woman Sister liked, so I reacted too intensely out of shock,” Li Beichen slowly exhaled.

“However, Sister, I have something I wanted to ask you. Is now a convenient time for you?” The veins on Li Beichen’s forehead were nearly popping, showing how hard he was struggling to hold back.

“No, it’s not convenient. I just successfully confessed and am taking my girlfriend out to dinner. If you have questions, you can find me in my office tomorrow morning,” Li Mo easily deflected him.

Asking her questions right now was clearly an attempt to create an opportunity to act. She wasn’t interested in taking the bait.

“Li Mo, I’m starving! I want to eat hot pot!” Wen Runan provided backup from the side. Compared to the unreadable Li Mo, her expression was much more animated.

In Li Beichen’s eyes, Wen Runan was practically engraving “gloating” on her face, looking extremely smug and utterly offensive.

“Alright, let’s go eat hot pot.” After the conversation shifted to Wen Runan, Li Mo’s tone instantly softened.

Watching the two of them leave hand-in-hand, Li Beichen grew angrier and angrier. Thinking about how he had been fooled by the two of them all along, and had even just been forced to apologize to Wen Runan, his breathing became increasingly rapid. Finally, his vision went black, and he collapsed.

“Quick, someone! President Li’s fainted!” an alert employee shouted.

“Ambulance! Call an ambulance! Who has President Li’s secretary’s number? Hurry up and notify him!”

Although Li Beichen had fainted, he still had a faint consciousness. He soon felt himself surrounded and lifted. Besides the exclamations, small sounds of discussion drifted into his ears.

“President Li fainting right now—could he have fainted from anger?”

“Although I want to say no, it seems that’s the case. President Li’s stress tolerance isn’t good.”

“I don’t know about that, but President Li is still far inferior to our President Li Mo…”

“But then again, President Li is quite pathetic. He probably liked Wen Runan, right? Now he’s lost face and he’s lost his girlfriend…”

“Perhaps this is the definition of losing both the wife and the army?”

Far inferior? Losing both the wife and the army? Hearing these vague statements, Li Beichen’s blood pressure started rising again. He wanted to jump up, grab their collars, and argue, telling them that things were not as they seemed.

But regrettably, as his anger surged, his vision went black once more, and he completely passed out from rage.
