Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing? - Chapter 977
Chapter 977: The Story of Ling and Heng (240)
Feng Ling turned his head and looked at him while waiting for the red light. “What do you want to do to me?”
Qiao Fei smiled. “I attended a dinner party last night and didn’t sleep all night. Send me to the hotel first, and I will tell you when I get there.”
Feng Ling was wary. “I will not send you up to the room. I will only send you to the hotel.”
“My room is on the first floor.”
Would there be a room on the first floor of a hotel? And Feng Ling noticed the name of this hotel, which seemed to be a very famous and luxurious seven-star hotel in Los Angeles. The first, secondm and third floors of this kind of hotel were mostly large banquet halls. Why would there be rooms?
When they were about to arrive at the hotel, Qiao Fei turned to look outside the window, and his voice was tired and husky. “My parents arranged a blind date for me, but I don’t like it. Tonight, there will be a dinner party in the hotel, so I want to borrow you for a night.”
Feng Ling still drove intently. “Borrow me for a night?”
“I know Boss Li likes you, and you obviously also like him.” Qiao Fei paused. “You can take a horse to the waterm but you cannot make it drink. I won’t force you, but can you pretend to be my girlfriend tonight? Then my family won’t push me so hard.”
Feng Ling braked abruptly and then calmed down before turning to look at him as if he was a lunatic, and then she continued driving. “No way.”
“It is a charity dinner party hosted by several important Chinese families in Los Angeles. In fact, it is just a way these big families build relations with each other. Don’t worry. You don’t have to change clothes specially. You just need to go with me. ”
“I’m not going. I will leave after taking you to the hotel.”
“The guests have almost all arrived. Do me a favor.”
“Brother Qiao, you should know me. No one can force me to do anything I don’t want to do.”
“But you owe me one.”
“Huh?”
“I had been keeping your secret for so long and never made you do anything for me. I like you, but I never forced or disturbed you but just watched you and Boss Li playing lovey-dovey in front of me. Don’t you think you owe me? Anyway, you’ve gotta do me this favor tonight. Otherwise, I’ll tie you up and take you there.”
Feng Ling pursed her lips. “I don’t quite understand why you are trying to muddle through this way. If you don’t want a blind date, just tell your family.”
“It’s just their temporary decision. They wanted me to see the girl at this dinner party. I think the best way to refuse a blind date is to show them my girlfriend. You don’t need to say or do anything. All you need to do is to stand beside me.”
“…You can just find a random female friend to go with you.”
“No, I can’t.”
“Why?”
“Because I don’t like them. I won’t look like a man in love having any of them standing beside me. Then my family won’t believe me.”
“…”
Although Feng Ling knew very few about feelings, she could understand what he meant.
So he specifically called her, came to pick her up, gazed at her all the way, and played pitiful in front of her just to try to persuade her to pretend to be his girlfriend tonight?
She hadn’t even learned how to be a normal girl. How could she pretend to be his girlfriend?
Feng Ling didn’t speak anymore. When they arrived, she unpacked the seat belt and got out of the car.
“Feng Ling.” Seeing that she was about to go without saying a word, Qiao Fei got out of the car, and walked quickly to stand in front of her to block her path. “Can’t you do me a favor?”
“I can’t.” Feng Ling looked up at the man who was much higher than her. “I don’t know how to play this role, and this kind of thing is too embarrassing. I won’t, and I can’t do it.”
“You don’t need to say anything. Just stand by my side tonight.”
“No, I can’t.”
Looking at her for a while, Qiao Fei silently stepped aside and gave way to her.
Feng Ling looked at him. “Brother Qiao, I’m sorry, but I really can’t do it…”
“It’s okay. I’ll have a driver to take you back.” Qiao Fei said, picking up the phone.
Feng Ling had been avoiding him just now. Now standing so close to him, she found that he looked gaunt and gloomy, and the alcohol on his body became stronger now.
If he weren’t in an extremely bad mood, Qiao Fei who was such a self-disciplined man, wouldn’t have stayed up all night drinking.
Was he really distressed?
“I’ll take a taxi. I know the address of the apartment.”
She sounded as if she was already familiar with Li Nanheng’s apartment. Qiao Fei paused and said nothing. He dialed a number and seemed about to call the driver over.
Seeing him so silent, Feng Ling pursed her lips and walked to him. “Brother Qiao, I really don’t know how to pretend to be your girlfriend. I’m afraid that I may end up embarrassing you.”
Hearing her words, Qiao Fei turned to look at her. “Are you willing to do me the favor?”
Feng Ling: “…I’ll do you this favor in return.”
Qiao Fei smiled. “It’s still a few hours before the dinner party. If you’d like, you can change into an evening dress, but I know you won’t, so be it. Anyway, even if you wear no make-up, you’re still a pretty girl. My parents can definitely tell that I really like you when they see you and me being together. Then they will not give me another blind date.”
Hearing he said he liked her, Feng Ling remembered Li Nanheng also once said he liked her.
It seemed that the men around her were all so straightforward. Perhaps that was because they all came from XI Base. When they liked someone, they just spoke it out. To them, there was nothing to hide.
But Feng Ling was aware that when Li Nanheng said that to her, she was willing to accept it and her heart was even trembling, while she was only grateful and wanted to escape when Qiao Fei said that to her.
Was this the so-called difference as Li Nanheng said?
Thinking of Li Nanheng, Feng Ling turned to look at the hotel behind her. Boss Li said that he would not come back home today because he had something to tend to. Perhaps he went back to the Li family or the base. She didn’t think she would meet him in such a place.
So even if she helped Qiao Fei, it shouldn’t matter, as long as it wouldn’t be learned by Boss Li.
Otherwise, she would be in serious trouble.
