Chapter 39 Throwing Yourself into His Arms

Everyone had been sitting and dining for quite a while, yet Feng Tingshen and Yu Moxun hadn't engaged in a conversation with each other. Upon hearing this, Feng Tingshen picked up the napkin beside him, gently wiped the corner of his lips, looked at Yu Moxun, and smiled. "I do have such an idea. What does Mr. Yu think?"

Yu Moxun naturally wouldn't turn down a business opportunity that presented itself. "It would be an honor for Changmo to have Mr. Feng's attention."

Lin Wu would be delighted to see Feng Tingshen and Yu Moxun cooperate. After all, if Feng Tingshen and Yu Moxun had closer interactions, she would have more opportunities to communicate with Yu Moxun. By then, it would be easier to win Yu Moxun over. Thinking of this, she cast a cold glance at Rong Ci.

Rong Ci had been mostly engaged in conversation with Professor Liu. Although she was also aware of the activities of others at the table, she wasn't overly preoccupied. If Yu Moxun truly intended to cooperate with Feng Tingshen, she naturally had no objections. She had no reason to oppose something that could bring in money.

As the meal neared its end, people didn't remain seated all the time. If they had intentions of cooperation, they would get up and gather on the sofas nearby to talk. Feng Tingshen had only verbally mentioned his desire to cooperate with Changmo during the meal. Whether there would be an actual cooperation, Rong Ci wasn't sure. However, Mr. Yuan, who was having dinner with them, was genuinely interested in collaborating with them. Before the meal was over, he had already pulled the management team he brought along to chat with Yu Moxun.

Rong Ci followed suit. Rong Ci was proficient in technical matters, but when it came to negotiation for cooperation, it was Yu Moxun's domain. Rong Ci sat quietly on the side, speaking only rarely. When she noticed that Yu Moxun's cup was empty, she picked it up. "Let me refill it for you."

Yu Moxun smiled. "Thanks."

Seeing Rong Ci acting as a secretary - like figure beside Yu Moxun, Lin Wu, Lin Lilan, and the others became even more certain that Rong Ci's role at Changmo was mostly to do menial tasks for Yu Moxun.

Rong Ci took the cup and turned to walk away. After taking two steps, when she was near Feng Tingshen, someone on the side suddenly turned around and accidentally bumped into her. Rong Ci lost her balance for a moment. Holding the water cup, she lunged forward and fell into Feng Tingshen's arms.

Upon seeing this, everyone around paused. Rong Ci seemed to have been knocked down, but who could tell if she did it on purpose? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she fell right into Feng Tingshen's arms? However, Rong Ci was truly stunning. She had an alluring figure, soft curves, and skin as tender and fair as tofu... Although Lin Wu was also very sexy and beautiful, in the eyes of many men present, Rong Ci was even more captivating.

Being deliberately embraced by such a woman, to be honest, quite a few men around were tempted. But Feng Tingshen was indeed different. With a cold expression, he gently steadied Rong Ci by her shoulders and then promptly pushed her away, showing no signs of being swayed by her beauty.

It was only when Rong Ci was pressed against Feng Tingshen, catching a whiff of his familiar scent, that she realized she had fallen onto Feng Tingshen. Recovering her senses, her expression turned indifferent. She straightened up, softly said "Sorry," and then turned to leave.

Lin Wu, Lin Lilan, and the others also thought Rong Ci had deliberately thrown herself into Feng Tingshen's arms. Lin Lilan snorted and said to Lin Wu, "I knew she couldn't stay quiet."

"But all her scheming is in vain." Because Feng Tingshen remained completely unmoved.

"Indeed," Lin Lilan smiled. "Tingshen's reaction really gives you a sense of security."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wu lowered her head with a sweet smile.

Lin Lihai frowned. He also felt that he had misjudged Rong Ci. He hadn't expected that despite her quiet appearance, she was full of ulterior motives.

Noticing the situation, Yu Moxun immediately stopped his conversation with Mr. Yuan and rushed towards Rong Ci.

"Are you okay?"

Rong Ci shook her head.

"Did you sprain your ankle?"

"A bit."

Her ankle was indeed throbbing with pain. It must have been sprained. Seeing Yu Moxun's concerned look, Rong Ci felt a warm sensation in her heart, but also a twinge of sadness. She was aware of the way people around were looking at her. She knew they thought she had intentionally thrown herself at Feng Tingshen. Even now that she was injured, they probably thought she deserved it.

As for Feng Tingshen... He didn't even bother to support her properly. When she fell, he didn't even ask if she was okay. The only one who truly cared about her here was Yu Moxun.

"Let me take a look?"

"No need..." There were so many people present...

Yu Moxun ignored her. He picked her up in his arms, carried her away from the crowd, sat her down, then squatted down, took off her high - heeled shoes, and gently lifted her calf. Seeing that her ankle was indeed swollen, while instructing the waiter to call a doctor, he also asked them to buy a pair of flat - soled shoes for Rong Ci.

Seeing Yu Moxun's blatant concern for Rong Ci, quite a few people at the scene were taken aback. For a moment, many people thought that perhaps they had been too hasty in assuming that Rong Ci had thrown herself at Feng Tingshen. After all, Rong Ci and Yu Moxun seemed to have a really good relationship.

Lin Wu pursed her lips and withdrew her gaze. Then, she looked at Feng Tingshen. Although Feng Tingshen noticed the intimate interaction between Rong Ci and Yu Moxun, he continued to chat with others as if nothing had happened, showing no concern for their closeness. Lin Wu's pursed lips relaxed, and she also smiled and resumed chatting with others, no longer paying attention to Rong Ci.

Before long, the on - site doctor from the restaurant arrived. After examining Rong Ci, he prescribed some medicine for her. After the doctor left, Yu Moxun applied the medicine for her. Rong Ci wanted to do it herself but was glared at by Yu Moxun. She raised her hands in surrender and gave up.

After Yu Moxun finished applying the medicine, the waiter brought the shoes over shortly. Rong Ci stood up and tried them on. "It's okay. I can walk."

"That's good."

However, with her injured foot, it was indeed inconvenient. Yu Moxun decided that she shouldn't go back to the exhibition hall. After all, he had already asked someone to take pictures of the exhibits at the exhibition. She could review them through the videos later. Although it was a pity, there was no other way.

Yu Moxun informed the others and then sent Rong Ci home first. After they left, the others also prepared to disperse.

...

After sending Rong Ci home, Yu Moxun had other matters to attend to and left soon. Rong Ci had been busy for most of the day and was exhausted. She wanted to rest and planned to discuss the "assignment" given by their teacher with Yu Moxun later when he was done with his business.

She placed her phone aside and was about to go to sleep when it rang. She picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. After a moment of hesitation, she answered it. "Hello, may I ask who this is?"

"He Changbai."

Rong Ci was startled and sat up in bed. "Mr. He?"

To be honest, she had been so busy today that if He Changbai hadn't contacted her, she would have really forgotten about what happened that morning.

"I've had someone take care of your car. You can come and pick it up later." Before Rong Ci could say anything, He Changbai added, "If you're busy, I can have someone drive it back to you."
