Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

Chapter 13 Modern World 13: Green Tea

Mo Xuewei yelled these words, her body shaking uncontrollably with anger, but she still stared at Quan Zhuojun with a firm look, as if she was the only person left in the world!

The entire venue was silent. Mo Xuewei turned around at this time and slowly walked out.

Zuo Zhizhi looked back at Quan Zhuojun, who was completely stunned. Although Zuo Zhitao was still making small movements, she did not attract his attention at all.

Quan Zhuojun still maintained the same posture as before, looking in the direction where Mo Xuewei left.

They had originally planned to attend the welcome party, so the three of them naturally didn't eat anything, especially Zuo Zhizhi and Zuo Yunting, who didn't even have a drop of water.

Zuo Yunting quickly booked a private room and took the two of them to dinner.

Mo Xuewei was like a lifeless rag doll. Now she had no life at all, not even anger.

Zuo Zhizhi glanced at Zuo Yunting and signaled him to think of a solution.

Who knew that Zuo Yunting shrugged his shoulders, looking nonchalant, and it seemed that he had no intention of taking care of this matter at all.

With a slight sigh, Zuo Zhizhi could only speak stiffly, "I think sometimes it's wise to cut your losses in time. People like him are not worth getting angry about!"

Who knew that Mo Xuewei still looked as if she had no feelings at all, as if the world had lost anything that could attract her attention.

Zuo Yunting chose a very private restaurant with an elegant environment and fresh and delicious food, which is very suitable for small gatherings.

It’s a pity that the people in front of him had no intention of appreciating the food, especially Mo Xuewei.

I was originally in a daze and completely walked into my own world, but I don’t know what I was thinking about, tears started falling one by one.

Zuo Zhizhi and Mo Xuewei had known each other for such a long time, but they had never seen her like this. After all, both of them were the type to fight but never talk, and they would say a few words even if there was nothing to do.

But now, looking at Mo Xuewei's weak and helpless appearance, Zuo Zhizhi did not feel happy, but felt very uncomfortable.

She carefully sat down next to Mo Xuewei, patted her back gently, and gave her silent comfort.

Mo Xuewei sensed this warmth and cried even harder. She threw herself into Zuo Zhizhi's arms and burst into tears.

Her voice was very loud, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered. She no longer had the stubbornness and brilliance of the past.

For a moment, the only sound in the entire private room was Mo Xuewei's crying.

It was not until she had cried her heart out that she finally came to her senses.

She went to the bathroom and tidied herself up briefly. The cool water splashed on her face, helping her calm down. Mo Xuewei finally returned to her original appearance.

Originally, he and Zuo Zhizhi had no relationship at all, but because of what happened today, the two of them were suddenly involved with each other.

The food that had been ordered was delivered to the private room one by one. The restaurant's singing and dancing performances were ignored, and the few people just ate in silence. For a moment, the room was silent.

Zuo Zhizhi couldn't help but quiet down. Even if she came across something she liked, she would just marvel in her heart and say that she would bring Xu Mingzhu over to eat it later.

At this time, Mo Xuewei's phone suddenly rang.

Mo Xuewei glanced at the incoming call and her fingers unconsciously clenched the phone. After an unknown amount of time, she threw the phone on the table and continued eating.

The other two people also waited silently, wondering when the current situation would end.

The ringtones kept ringing, but Mo Xuewei didn't check them at all.

It wasn't until after dinner that Mo Xuewei's phone rang again.

Hearing this unique ringtone, Mo Xuewei finally perked up and burst into tears.

"mom--"

He originally called to settle the score with her, but he didn't expect to hear his daughter like this, and his heart softened all of a sudden.

"You kid, this is clearly a marriage between two families, and you want to break off the engagement now. What will everyone think of you in the future?"

"But……"

"It's inevitable for two people to quarrel. And even though Zuo Zhitao isn't a relative, our two families are related, so we can't make things too ugly! Quan Zhuojun has already apologized, so just accept his excuse and live your lives in peace!"

"Haha," Mo Xuewei laughed sarcastically, "Then you should first see what they did."

After saying that, Mo Xuewei put down the phone immediately without waiting for the other party's reaction.

Zuo Zhizhi thought for a moment and said to Mo Xuewei, "Do you want me to ask the director for leave for you? It's better to deal with this matter properly first!"

Mo Xuewei nodded and said, "I'll go back and explain it to them tonight, but I'll be there tomorrow, so there's no need to tell the director!"

Zuo Yunting drove Mo Xuewei home, rejected their family's invitation, and took Zuo Zhizhi back temporarily.

It was quite late, and Zuo Zhizhi was too lazy to go back to the crew, so she just rested at home.

But in fact, he was chatting with Xu Mingzhu on WeChat.

Xu Mingzhu: [None of your relatives are to be trifled with!]

Zuo Zhizhi: [What else? You know, I lived like this as a kid!]

Xu Mingzhu: [Hug!]

Zuo Zhizhi: [One is a green tea, and the other is always against me, so I’m almost fed up with these relatives!]

Xu Mingzhu: [But judging by the way they look, it's impossible for them to coexist peacefully. So what are you going to do next?]

Zuo Zhizhi: [Let’s go with Mo Xuewei. After all, I’m allergic to green tea!]

The two didn't chat for long before Mo Peilan came to Zuo Zhizhi's room.

"My dear mother, how come you have time to come to see me?"

Mo Peilan stood not far away with his arms folded across his chest, looking like someone who was not someone to be trifled with.

Zuo Zhizhi immediately became alert, sat obediently on the bed, and looked at Mo Peilan with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Mo Peilan could only sigh helplessly, “Tell me, what happened today!”

Zuo Zhizhi immediately felt the urge to talk and told him everything that happened today.

After all, she didn't make any mistakes today. She was a completely considerate and helpful girl.

When Mo Peilan heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

"This Xiao Tao looked pretty good before, but I didn't expect she would be like this in private!"

Zuo Zhizhi curled her lips, obviously disagreeing with such words.

Mo Peilan raised an eyebrow, "Why, you don't agree?"

Zuo Zhizhi immediately shook her head. "I gladly accept Ms. Mo's answer. That's right..."

"Just tell me what you have to say."

"This isn't the first or second time Zuo Zhitao has done something like this! The word 'green tea' is simply her defining characteristic!"
