Su Xu's meal was like chewing wax on the side. The four elderly people happily discussed the wedding, occasionally mentioning the embarrassing events of their childhood, while Xue Chen and Wang Shuo loved each other. What they said and what they said, although Bai Mo didn't interrupt them often, they were a family, so naturally they had an intangible tacit understanding.

Their family … Only she was an outsider.

She felt a little uneasy that Baimo had brought her to such a private family dinner. She was too afraid that her family would misunderstand her relationship with Baimo, and she just wanted to stay out of it.

She could avoid responding to Bai Mo's feelings, but she could not get angry over Bai Mo's actions. Bai Mo's care and care for her was a debt that she owed.

"Su Xu, a girl of such young age and with such great working ability, it's really not to be underestimated." It was unknown when the conversation shifted to her, but Bai Mo's father praised her, "The current child, surpasses the blue."

She hastily corrected him, "No, no, uncle, this is all Master's work. Everything I learn is taught by them."

Bai Mo smiled and said, "Not bad, it's always good to be modest."

Su Xu also smiled at him.

This was the most ordinary conversation they had, but the way they smiled at each other was different in the eyes of the elders.

"Su Xu, when are we going to meet your parents?" Baimo's mother said to her, "It's even more lively if we all gather together."

She did not hear the sound of the probing.

Su Xu pursed her lips, "My parents are no longer here."

The situation instantly turned awkward. "Ah, I'm sorry. I'm not aware of the situation."

This meal was prepared for the wedding, it was a joyous thing. Her words were somewhat dispirited, she should have used a better excuse to avoid the question.

Bai Mo said seriously, "There's a saying, master is the rebirth of his parents. Dad, mom, you finally understand how hard I worked, right? I worked hard, and I was both a father and a mother!"

Su Xu hurriedly cooperated with him, "Yes, yes. Master has put in a lot of effort. Let me toast you and give birth to your mother."

The last sentence was accentuated and matched with her crafty expression. It was truly strange.

Everyone present could not help but laugh at their conversation. They could not help but laugh.

Under the table, Paimon silently took her hand. He squeezed her fingers, and when Susu turned to look at him, he smiled at her soothingly.

Su Xu heaved a sigh of relief.

"You didn't say the wrong thing," she whispered. "Don't be so strict with yourself, Su-Xu. Just relax, as usual."

"Mm. Alright." Su Xu agreed.

For the rest of the time, Su Xu was no longer tense. She thought, if she could not let it go, everyone else would also be affected.

She couldn't ruin the dinner about Snowdust and Wang Shuo's wedding. She had to make the others happy, and she had to make them think that she was very happy too.

After the meal, Su Yu was exhausted.

Actually, she hadn't suffered any grievances at all. It was mainly because she was mentally exhausted. Ever since she was a child, she had been thinking too much about him.

It was already very late after dinner. They walked out of the room and waited for the elevator in the hall. While they were talking, Su Xu noticed a familiar figure with sharp eyes. That man was still with her yesterday and they were snuggling together.

Now he was talking and laughing with the beauty in his arms.

Qin Zheng stood at the window of the hall, holding a cigarette in one hand and conversing with a group of business friends in the other. The beautiful woman at the side held Qin Zheng's arm and revealed a perfect smile.

Looking at them from afar, she truly felt that they were an absolutely compatible couple that no one could compare to.

The beautiful girl said something that attracted the man to turn his head and look sideways to listen. Then, very naturally, he saw Su Xu through the hall.

This was a very strange feeling. The man opposite her was both familiar and unfamiliar, and Su Xu's heart was very calm. It was as if after seeing the Night Emperor Palace, she already had a premonition that she might run into Qin Zheng here.

"Su Xu, come shopping with me next time." Bai Mo's mother affectionately held her hand.

She withdrew her gaze and nodded at the woman before her with a smile. "Okay."

Ye Xue Chen cried out and joked: "Mom saw Su Xu and forgot about my daughter."

"Alright, alright. Let's enter the elevator." Bai Mo interrupted and naturally held Su Xu's waist as they walked forward. Su Xu felt that it was inappropriate, but she also couldn't avoid it.

The instant the elevator closed, she clearly saw Qin Zheng turn his face to the side and continue befriending the beauty, but he had put out his cigarette.

After they left the hotel, they said their goodbyes to each other. Naturally, Bai Mo took on the task of sending her home.

As the car drove up to the apartment, Su Xu smiled and said, "Thank you for sending me back."

Bai Mo looked at her without saying anything, the corner of his mouth slightly hooked up, but it was not his usual warm smile. Today, he didn't wear his glasses, and without the covering of the glasses, Bai Mo's eyes had the ability to see through people's hearts.

"Master, I'll head back first. Good night." She wanted to escape.

"Wait."

Just as Su Xu was about to open the door, Bai Mo grabbed her arm.

Su Yu was stunned. "Is something the matter, Master?"

Bai Mo looked at Su Xu with blurred eyes. He paused for a long time and then slowly said, "Su Xu, I like you."

Su Xu's brain exploded with a buzzing sound.

She knew that Bai Mo had always been good to her, but it wasn't because she didn't feel the peculiar gaze when Bai Mo looked at her. She had always been hiding her head like an ostrich, thinking that this way she could avoid trouble.

She did not know love, and she would not love him.

Su Xu frowned slightly and said without any explanation, "Teacher, my arm is hurting a bit."

He quickly looked down at her arm. Two faint traces of red could be seen in the dim interior of the carriage. He gently loosened the strength in his hand, lifted Su Xu's arm to his mouth and blew slowly.

The sky was very dark. Su Xu gazed at the man in front of her and softly said, "Master, I like you too."

Bai Mo revealed a happy expression, his handsome face looked even more gentle.

"Not just you, I also like Master Song, and Master Li Lin." Su Xu continued to speak leisurely, "You have taught me a lot."

Bai Mo sighed and gently let go of Su Xu's arm. After a while, he caressed Su Xu's hair and smiled: "I knew it would be like this."

"I'm sorry." Susu saw a hint of sadness in his smile.

"Heh, there's nothing to be sorry about. It's too late. Let's go back. "

"Mm. Master, good night." Su Xu opened the car door and waved to Bai Mo.

Walking to the apartment, a crack finally appeared on the calm face Su Xu maintained. She shouldn't have provoked Bai Mo, she shouldn't have, she couldn't respond to Bai Mo's feelings, she felt guilty and uneasy.

This guilt was simply going to drown her. She couldn't bear his love. Su Xu buried her face in the pillow and didn't sleep for the whole night.
