Chapter 181 Can You Give Me A Little Time

When the car drove out of the parking lot, Lu Shaoqi remembered that Su Mo was still waiting for her.

She was holding the steering wheel with one hand, turning beautifully with one hand, while the other was busy calling Su Mo.

When Su Mo received a call from Lu Shaoqi, it was as if he had met a savior, and he said in an unbearably joyful voice, "Xiaoqi, why have you been away for so long?"

Lu Shaoqi said apologetically, "My dear, I'm sorry! I was in a hurry and left first."

"What? You left?" Su Mo couldn't believe what he heard?
Lu Shaoqi actually left her and left?

Seeing Lin Jinyao's happy expression for a moment, Su Mo's temples throbbed, "Xiao Qi, you must be joking, right?"

She was still trying to redeem this ending, but Lu Shaoqi said to her apologetically: "Little Jasmine, you will definitely forgive me, right?"

"I……"

"I knew you would forgive me. Don't worry, I will make it up to you another day. I'll call you when I'm done. That's it."

Completely talking to himself, Su Mo looked at the phone that had been hung up, and could only send her a word, "Lu Shaoqi, your uncle!"

These words were originally Lu Shaoqi's mantra. When Su Mo was hanging out with her in those years, he didn't learn other bad habits, but he learned them well.

Hearing her swearing, Lin Jinyao couldn't help but look at her tenderly and said, "Momo, you seem to have really changed a lot."

Only now did Su Mo remember that Lin Jinyao was still there, and his face turned red when he thought that he had sweared in front of him just now.

It was so rude just like that.

Seeing her shyness, Lin Jinyao couldn't help teasing, "But the habit of blushing at every turn has not changed."

In a word, it makes people feel ashamed.

The image of the perfect princess that had been preserved in front of Lin Jinyao for many years was completely ruined, Su Mo now just wanted to dig a hole in the ground and get in.

Lin Jinyao didn't think so, but felt that he and her were getting closer all of a sudden.

He said: "Since your friend left earlier, may I ask my honorable princess, can you give me a moment now and let me invite you to have a cup of coffee?"

That being said, there is really no way to refuse.

Su Mo nodded and said, "Alright then!"

This shopping mall is now owned by Lin's family. Lin Jinyao is naturally familiar with the distribution of the shopping mall, so he directly took Su Mo up to the eighth floor, where there is a freshly ground coffee shop.

After the two sat down, Lin Jinyao ordered directly without looking through the menu.

He still remembered that Su Mo's favorite coffee was caramel macchiato, which must be paired with a piece of chocolate cake every time, and it would be best to have a cup of mango pudding.

At that time, she was growing up and had always had a good appetite. While eating a lot of snacks, she was worried that she would gain weight.

In the end, I really got fat, so I blamed him all because he didn't stop it in time.

Obviously, she couldn't get rid of her gluttony by herself, so she insisted on relying on others.

So when she ate these things later, Lin Jinyao deliberately said to her: "Momo, if you become a fat man, I won't want you."

Su Mo knew his temperament, so he didn't believe his words at all, and still ate a lot of snacks every day, especially chocolate cake.

The result of unrestrained overeating was that after a month, Su Mo gained five catties.

At that time, they were in junior high school. Girls of that age were still between ignorance and youth, and they had just learned what is ugly and what is beautiful.

But Su Mo, who was well protected, just didn't know much about it.

Lin Jinyao still remembered that the atmosphere in the school was not good at that time, a group of people didn't study hard, and they liked to get together and gossip all day long.

Today, who has the most luxurious car, and who has the most beautiful skirt tomorrow.

Although Su Mo doesn't like to compare with others, it is inevitable that she will be compared. At that time, everyone said in private that she was a lucky princess.

It's a pity that the princess will also have troubles.

Once, two students in the class had a quarrel between classes, and Su Mo just happened to collect his homework, and accidentally stepped on a minefield.

One classmate couldn't understand her very much. He was in a bad mood at that moment, so he pointed at her and said something to her on the spot.

She said: "It's just a torn skirt, what's there to be proud of? When you grow up to be a fat man like Su Mo, I'll see if you dare to wear a skirt or not."

Being implicated innocently, and with such a strong personal attack, Su Mo collapsed on the spot, refused to accept his homework, and ran to find him crying.

Lin Jinyao still clearly remembered that she was crying so hard at that time, she fell into his arms and swore, "Brother Jin, I will never eat chocolate cake again, I don't want to become fat."

It was agreed that the scar would forget the pain, and within a few days after that incident, Su Mo forgot about it.

So for a long time, Su Mo hovered between keeping fit and enjoying delicious food, on the verge of painful entanglement.

Lin Jinyao was willing to see her so entangled, so he became cruel, and really ignored her for two days, even insisting not to talk to her when he was sitting in the same car to and from school,

After that, Su Mo made up his mind to give up chocolate cake.

God knows how hard he endured those two days?
Seeing how wronged his little princess was, his heart was tightly clenched together.

But there is no way, if he doesn't do that, Su Mo will indulge himself because he doesn't care, in case he really becomes a big fat man in the future...

Thinking of this, Lin Jinyao shook his head with a smile.

He found that every time he saw Su Mo, he would always think of the past, and they really had a lot to recall.

What Lin Jinyao ordered for Su Mo were caramel macchiato and black forest cake.

The food was served soon, but Su Mo just ate it, and now he really can't eat it.

Lin Jinyao looked at Su Mo. He hadn't seen her for a few years. She had really changed a lot. She lost the delicateness of the past and became more mature and beautiful.

"Momo." Lin Jinyao gently called her by her baby name as in the past, "Can you tell me how are you doing now?"

Stirring the coffee stopped, Su Mo raised his head, looked at Lin Jinyao for a while and said, "Brother Jin, I'm doing well now."

This sentence is actually very hurtful, because without him, she can also live well.

And he had to admit that Xiao Nanye took good care of her.

There will still be resentment, if he hadn't lost his memory back then, he would have taken good care of him, no, it was even better.

Facing Su Mo's clear gaze, Lin Jinyao forced a smile, and finally asked the questions that he had borne in his heart for a long time. "You and Xiao Nanye are really dating?"

"Ah."

Su Mo lowered her eyes shyly. Except for Lu Shaoqi, this was the first time she talked about her boyfriend with anyone, especially this person was her very important friend.

Seeing Su Mo's shy face, Lin Jinyao felt a sudden pain in his heart, "Momo, do you still remember what day it is?"

Su Mo nodded, "The first time we met was at my birthday party, when you were rejecting a little girl who confessed to you."

"You remember."

Recalling the scene when we first met, Lin Jinyao smiled, "At that time, I was just afraid that she would keep pestering me, so I lied to her that I already had a girlfriend, and then you showed up."

In fact, such a young child doesn't know what liking is at all.

But when Su Mo appeared in front of him, wearing a crown and a pink princess dress, at that moment Lin Jinyao felt that this is what a princess in a fairy tale should look like.

So he walked over, took her hand, and said to his admirer braggingly: "Look, I didn't lie to you, my princess is here."

Su Mo obviously also remembered that incident, and said with a smile: "I still remember that girl cried when she left, and kept asking her mother, why isn't she a princess?"

At that time, although he lost his parents, the Su family was still there, and Su Mo was still a well-clothed little princess.

The Su family is long gone, do you think you are still the little princess of the Su family?

The smile froze at the corner of her mouth, obviously thinking of some unpleasant things, those people were actually right, without the Su family, she had indeed lost her self-willed capital.

Seeing Su Mo's sudden silence, Lin Jinyao was a little worried, "Momo, what's wrong with you?"

Su Mo looked at him, shook his head slightly and said, "Brother Jin, I'm fine."

In fact, Lin Jinyao could tell that she was fine, but she just didn't want to say it.

During the time when the Su family had an accident, Lin Jinyao just lost his memory, and the Lin family deliberately kept it a secret, so he didn't have a deep impression of what happened during that time.

Even the best detective in the world can't detect a person's heart. He will never know what Su Mo went through during that time?
If it were not for Xiao Nanye's 1000 million, the Su family might get a vicious reputation, she might be thrown eggs in the street, and she might even be arrested and sent to jail.

That transaction saved the Su family's reputation, which is enough to make Su Mo grateful for a lifetime.

Lin Jinyao would never force Su Mo to say things she didn't want to say.

Although he cared about it in his heart, it was different now. What he had to do now was to win back Su Mo's heart.

"Momo." Lin Jinyao took out a blue box from his pocket, "I'm sorry for missing your birthday so many times, I hope I still have a chance to make it up."

Lin Jinyao put the box in front of Su Mo, looked into her eyes with gentle eyes, and said, "Momo, happy birthday!"

When Su Mo heard the long-lost 'Happy Birthday', Su Mo's eyes turned red instantly. How familiar is this scene?
"I'm sorry, I..." Su Mo couldn't help himself for a while, covering his face and crying.

Lin Jinyao looked at Su Mo distressedly, got up and walked to her side, raised his hands, then slowly put them down on those tender shoulders.

The moment Lin Jinyao held the crying man in his arms, Lin Jinyao felt an unprecedented satisfaction.
