Chapter 451: 451, Roman Holiday
“So what do you plan to do now?” Su Wenwen asked again.
Mo Weiyi was candid, “I don’t know.”
“In my opinion, Xiao Yebai is so aloof because he knows you like him, right? You’ve been pursuing him and treating him well since you were young, but what about him? You should let him experience what it feels like to be treated indifferently! Just separate, live in the school dorm, and use this time to study well and prepare for final exams.”
“But I can’t focus on studying at the moment,” Mo Weiyi said listlessly.
Originally, she had agreed to Xiaobai’s request to be in the top ten for the purpose of having a baby, but now… it seemed like doing anything was meaningless.
“Mo Xiaose! Let me tell you, studying is for yourself! So is hard work! It’s not for a child! It’s not for anyone else! What you learn will always be yours! And you have already been working hard for more than a month, you only have twenty more days left, just because of Xiao Yebai, you’re going to say ‘I give up’? Is everything for him? Can you stop being so pathetic?” Su Wanwan finished, took a breath, looked at the time, “I have to go to class, you should think things over.”
After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for a reply.

Mo Weiyi lay on the sofa and slowly put down the phone.
Her clear catlike eyes stared steadily at the ceiling, unmoving for quite a while.
Until the phone rang again.
This time it was Ling Zhizhou who was calling.
Mo Weiyi answered, “Hello.”
“Hello Sister, your husband didn’t get mad at you yesterday, did he?”
“What?” Mo Weiyi was momentarily taken aback.
“Your textbook, the signature was torn off by me, your husband didn’t get mad, right?”
“Oh.” Mo Weiyi bit her lip, “Don’t worry, it’s okay.”
In fact, Xiao Yebai hadn’t even seen the textbook, but now… none of it mattered anymore.
“Glad to hear that.” Ling Zhizhou paused, then said, “This afternoon our English class is going to screen a movie, are you coming to watch? ‘Roman Holiday’.”
“I won’t be coming, I’m not feeling very well.”
“Alright then, Sister, you should rest.”
“Mm.”

Mo Group.
After finishing the morning meeting, Xiao Yebai returned to his office.
Zhong Kai followed him, and after thinking for a while, he went back to his office, then took out a bag and knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
With caution, Zhong Kai walked in, “President Xiao, this is for you.”
Xiao Yebai glanced at it, expressionless, “What is it?”
Zhong Kai quickly replied, “This is a scarf that the princess gave you yesterday, there’s a little coffee stain on it, but it should be okay after washing.”
The princess had a misunderstanding with President Xiao and Miss Tian yesterday, and made a bit of a fuss.
But now that a whole day has passed, the two of them should have made up by now, right?
Zhong Kai saw Xiao Yebai calmly and rationally during the meeting, acting the same as usual, and concluded that this pair of young newlyweds must have made up.
If Xiao Yebai knows now that the princess came to give him a gift yesterday, he will certainly be very happy. Who would have thought that as soon as he put the bag on the desk…
“Get out.” The man’s voice turned very cold.
“…..” Zhong Kai was startled.
What’s going on with President Xiao?
Receiving a gift from the princess, shouldn’t he be happy?
Xiao Yebai narrowed his eyes, “Do I need to ask you to leave?”
Zhong Kai’s legs wobbled in fear, he quickly turned around, “I’ll go right away.”
What a scare, being so fierce when someone was just being nice and giving a gift.
After the door closed, Xiao Yebai sat there, the black eyes falling on the bag.
A while later, his slender bony hand took the bag.
Inside was a cream-colored scarf stained with coffee. His brows furrowed slightly. He crumpled up the scarf and stuffed it back into the bag, unobtrusively putting it away in a drawer below.

In the afternoon, Mo Weiyi still went to school.
Over time, she got used to going to school everyday, occasionally staying at home made her restless.
Su Wanwan saw her daydreaming and rolled her eyes, “I’m going to the library. Are you coming with me?”
“Mm.” Mo Weiyi nodded listlessly.
The two came to the library, Su Wanwan soon became absorbed in studying, after reading several pages of ‘Communication Theory’, she looked up to see Mo Weiyi staring out the window in a daze.
Su Wanwan couldn’t help but roll her eyes again.
She was really fed up, just because of a man she was acting as if her life was falling apart.
She would never do that.
“Sister?” a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Mo Weiyi returned to her senses and looked at Ling Zhizhou.
“So you came to school. How are you feeling?” Ling Zhizhou asked.
“I’m feeling better.”
“Do you want to watch a movie with me?” Ling Zhizhou added, “It’s an original soundtrack movie; it will help you learn English.”
“What movie?” Su Wanwan asked.
“Roman Holiday.”
Su Wanwan nodded, it was a romance movie.
As her eyes roamed around, she suddenly said, “I want to watch it too, let’s go together.”
Mo Weiyi looked at her in surprise.
“Come on.” Su Wanwan got up, pulling her along.
It was time for her to see what it really meant to be in a mutually loving relationship.
