The Expensive Ex Wife of a Wealthy Family

Chapter 386: Sudden Fainting

Shen Chu's heart was suddenly shaken, as if the things she had resisted thinking about were exposed by someone, and suddenly she could not help but invade all her nerves.

"Why are you telling me this?" Shen Chu snorted coldly, with resistance in her tone.

"I just saw the news..." Chu Zixiao said without expression on his face, "After all, this is the first big project you have taken up designing again after so many years away, and I feel it's a pity."

Shen Chu gritted her teeth tightly, and her breathing became heavy.

She admitted that Jian Mo's design was very good, but she didn't believe she would lose.

If Gu Beichen could make an exception for Jian Mo and let her change the design drawings under such circumstances, it would not be impossible to find Chen Xuan to help Jian Mo regain her face in Huayu after the defeat of Emperor, right?

Thinking of this, Shen Chu gritted his teeth tightly.

The breath condensed for a while, and Chu Zixiao did not speak, waiting for Shen Chu to digest it.

Time passed by second by second, and it was unknown how long it had passed. Shen Chu clenched her hands and asked, "What good will it do for Beichen if you tell me this?"

Chu Zixiao narrowed his eyes slightly, "I just want to know if you are willing or not...that's all."

Willing?

How could she be willing?

Shen Chu's face was cold. What originally belonged to her now belonged to Jian Mo...

She tried hard to fight for it, but she had been a pawn of her father's power since she was a child.

Now that she thought about it, the only thing she really lived for herself was to study design at UCL...But now, the only one, the only one, was going to be taken away by Jian Mo?

Shen Chu didn't say anything else, but just hung up the phone.

Yes, she was unwilling!

Shen Chu gritted her teeth, with resentment in her eyes.

That kind of hatred seemed to want to annihilate everything...

...

Jian Mo called Gu Beichen after the meeting.

The screen of the mobile phone flashed silently on the desk. Gu Beichen was in a video conference. He lowered his eyes and glanced at Jian Mo. Seeing that it was Jian Mo, his eyes deepened.

"Take a ten-minute break!" Gu Beichen said indifferently, and then cut off the video signal.

Picking up the phone, he heard Jian Mo's flattering voice, "I got the design of Huayu!"

"Yeah..." Gu Beichen's thin lips overflowed with a smile.

Before Jian Mo knew the result, Chen Xuan had already told him.

He didn't tell Jian Mo, but just hoped that she would have the joy of expectation...

"Just 'yes'?" Jian Mo was dissatisfied.

Gu Beichen's cold face showed a touch of tenderness, "Otherwise?"

Jian Mo hummed in her nose, and then said happily: "Do you have anything to do tonight?"

Gu Beichen's eyes fell on the schedule. There was a dinner party tonight, "No!"

"Really?" Jian Mo was a little unconvinced.

Gu Beichen seemed to be particularly busy recently. He flew to other cities twice in one week...

She knew that although Gu Mohuai came back, it seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, the Emperor was already undercurrent.

"Yeah." Gu Beichen just responded lightly.

Jian Mo wanted to share her joy with Gu Beichen in private, so she didn't think much about it, "See you at home tonight..."

"Okay!" Gu Beichen's eyes were already filled with smiles.

"Then you go first, I have to go too."

"Okay!"

Gu Beichen responded, and put down the phone after Jian Mo hung up the phone.

After pressing the internal line, Gu Beichen said calmly: "Cancel the dinner tonight."

There was silence on the phone for a while, and then Susan's hesitant voice came, "Mr. Chen, there is a dinner with several major banks tonight, do you really want to cancel it?"

"Yeah." Gu Beichen responded, his indifferent face was full of domineering and awe-inspiring under the cold arrogance.

Susan hesitated and responded with a heavy heart.

After hanging up the phone, Susan was distressed, thinking about how to tell the people from the major banks...

In the current situation of the emperor, the major banks must cooperate.

But who to cooperate with became a problem.

Susan opened the phone record book and planned to explain bitterly. Before she dialed the phone, she saw Xiao Jing walking in while talking on the phone.

"I understand..." Xiao Jing answered and hung up the phone, "The young lady called to ask if Chen Shao has anything to do in the evening."

"Then what?" Susan asked.

Xiao Jing shrugged, "I told the truth..."

Susan's eyes lit up immediately.

Now, there is no one else except Jian Mo who can make Chen Shao abandon his work and have no moral integrity and bottom line.

"The young lady said that she would find a reason, so..." Xiao Jing glanced at the phone book, "You don't need to make these calls."

It was an hour later when Jian Mo called Gu Beichen, and he just finished the video conference.

"Husband..." Jian Mo called out in a greasy voice.

Gu Beichen frowned slightly. He knew something was wrong from Jian Mo's tone, "Hmm?"

"That..." Jian Mo grinned, "I might go back a little late tonight."

"Hmm?" Gu Beichen exclaimed again.

Jian Mo pouted, "Boss Yu said that I finally got a big design after coming back, and he will treat everyone to dinner tonight... You know, Xiang Wan and the others like to play, I can't pour cold water on them."

Gu Beichen's dark eyes deepened.

"How about..." Jian Mo deliberately asked, "Will you go with me?"

"I won't go." Gu Beichen said dotingly, "Call me when you're done, and I'll pick you up."

"No," Jian Mo said hurriedly, "otherwise, I was thinking of you to pick me up, and I didn't have enough fun."

What a joke, she wasn't really going out to play.

Gu Beichen smiled faintly on his thin lips and responded.

Night came when the lights were just coming on.

The weather was gloomy during the day and it became even darker at night.

After Jian Mo went back to the villa and had a simple meal, she told Aunt Luo not to say that she came back early.

Aunt Luo was already accustomed to the "little tacit understanding" between Jian Mo and Gu Beichen, and nodded with a smile.

After cleaning the table and letting Jian Mo draw with peace of mind, Aunt Luo and the servants all left the villa...

Jian Mo looked at the sketch of the villa with her left hand on her chin, and couldn't help but smile.

"I don't know if Shao Shi likes this design..." Jian Mo muttered to herself.

Although Shao Shi said that she was free to play with the overall design, she couldn't help but add her own preferences to the design because she liked both the environment and the design concept of the logs.

In such a place, with the one you love, with birds singing and flowers blooming in the morning and insects chirping and fireflies surrounding you at night, it must be very warm and comfortable.

Jian Mo took a deep breath, and what she imagined in her mind was not Shao Shi and his lover.

But herself and Gu Beichen...

Jian Mo curled her lips and collected her thoughts. She looked at the sketch again. There was nothing that needed to be modified, so she packed it up and put it in her handbag.

She stood up...

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness came over her.

Jian Mo hurriedly supported the dining table, but in an instant, her face turned pale, and there was no blood color under the light.

"Um..."

Jian Mo muffled a pained sound, subconsciously glanced at the door, with a hint of hope in her eyes.

However, before she had time to think about it, she felt her eyes go black, and she still collapsed to the ground...
