If You Could Hear My Heart
Chapter 1057 - Chapter 1057 Chapter 1057 The Mayors Daughter

Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: The Mayor’s Daughter Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: The Mayor’s Daughter The crowd was everywhere, and she stamped her foot, kicking a small stone far away!

Such a petty man, is he even a man? Xia Chuqing couldn’t help but criticize him silently!

She hoped she wouldn’t catch him.

If she hadn’t been standing steadily just now, wouldn’t she have fallen flat on her face in front of so many people, all bruised and swollen? What if her face had been ruined? Would he take responsibility?!

With that thought, she angrily walked a few steps forward, but she couldn’t see Xiao Mo anywhere.

Xiao Mo wasn’t walking fast, he had just gone directly to a men’s clothing store near the airport to buy pants.

All the way there, he felt uncomfortable, knowing that Xia Chuqing must have done it on purpose.

However, what he hadn’t expected was that Xia Chuqing was quite clever.

She didn’t search blindly, but reasoned that Xiao Mo, no matter how fast he ran, couldn’t have completely disappeared in a matter of seconds.

Being such a face-conscious man, with his pants getting dirty, he had two options, first go to the restroom, second go to a men’s clothing store.

Being such a classy man, he probably wouldn’t go to the restroom to change pants, plus, what he cared about wasn’t the money, but his pride. So, his first instinct would definitely be to go to a men’s clothing store!

She was a frequent visitor at the airport in A City, she knew every corner clearly.

Men’s clothing store, there were just a few, she just had to watch the exit.

So, after stealthily waiting in a corner for ten minutes, surely enough, Xiao Mo came out!

“Xiao Mo, tell me, aren’t you a petty man? Do you realize how excessive your actions just now were?” Xia Chuqing confronted him directly.

Xiao Mo was startled at first, then glanced at her and elegantly smiled, “What did I do?”

“…”

Xiao Mo walked past Xia Chuqing, paying her no further attention.

Xia Chuqing thought about it and realized this man had no sense of responsibility. Was he even a man?

But his newly bought pants looked pretty good.

Tch, tch, tch, what was she thinking.

Xiao Mo walked towards the roadside, thinking that Xia Chuqing was rather clever, finding him even in such a crowded place.

Just as he was about to hail a cab to the hotel, Xia Chuqing clung to him like a plaster, impossible to shake off.

She ran over with her big red backpack bouncing on her back.

“Xiao Mo, I just don’t believe we won’t see each other again.” Xia Chuqing said.

“So what?” Xiao Mo turned his head, glancing at her.

“…” Xia Chuqing was at a loss for words.

Indeed, why did she want to see him? Such a boring person.

Just as she was unsure how to start a conversation, someone called out, “Chuqing.”

Xia Chuqing turned her head, it was her dad, he had actually come to the airport to pick her up himself.

“Dad, Dad, I’m here!” Xia Chuqing waved her hand.

A middle-aged man came over and hugged Xia Chuqing.

“Did you finish your exams? How did it go? Tired from the flight?”

“Not tired, not tired, it’s just…” Xia Chuqing was about to speak but looked around, where was Xiao Mo now?

Looking forward, a taxi had just driven past her.

That man, he sure ran fast!

“Chuqing, what’s wrong? What are you looking at?” Xia Chuqing’s dad asked.

“Nothing, nothing,” Xia Chuqing said.

“Let’s go home then, your mom made a special dinner, just waiting for you to come eat. Here, give the suitcase to dad!”

“No, no, no, I can’t trouble you, Dad,” Xia Chuqing laughed, “Dad, it’s so hot today, you better go rest in the car, I’ll handle it.”

“If I don’t bother you, then who should I bother? I am your dad, after all.”

The man pulled Xia Chuqing’s luggage without any explanation and personally placed it in the trunk.

“Where’s Uncle Zhang?” Xia Chuqing asked.

Uncle Zhang was their family driver, but she didn’t see him.

“I came to pick you up myself.” The man smiled.

“Ha ha, I’m so touched, Dad, I love you! I brought you a lot of specialties from C City, all your favorites!”

Xia Chuqing and the man chatted while entering the car, and by then, she had completely forgotten about Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo, sitting in a taxi, glanced back; he knew Xia Chuqing’s father, the mayor of A City, Xia Yongfang.

Coming to A City for projects and financing meant inevitably dealing with the government, and thus, the mayor. He was quite familiar with Xia Yongfang, just never expected him to be Xia Chuqing’s dad.

Xia Chuqing turned out to be the mayor’s daughter.

He chuckled, the world really was small.

But Xia Chuqing didn’t carry the airs of a mayor’s daughter, which was quite interesting; a lively young girl without any pretension or aloofness.

He had heard from Xu Chaomu before that Xia Chuqing was also doing quite well in university, approachable. It seemed Xu Chaomu didn’t know her dad was the mayor.

However, harboring grudges was not a good trait.

After the taxi drove away, he curled his lips, not wanting to dwell on it anymore, preparing to head to the hotel to tidy up before attending a meeting at the branch office this afternoon.

His visit to A City was a secret to Xu Chaomu, uncertain if Xia Chuqing would mention it.

Regardless, he had still picked out a gift for Xu Chaomu.

That evening, he borrowed a car from the branch office and drove himself to the hotel where Xu Chaomu was staying.

He brought her a cake, a beautiful cherry blossom pink one.

Though it wasn’t anyone’s birthday, for some reason, he just really wanted to buy her a cake.

“Knock, knock, knock,” he knocked on her room door.

Xu Chaomu was drawing under the lamp when she heard the knocking, quite surprised.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me, Xiao Mo.”

Xiao Mo? Xu Chaomu was genuinely stunned. How did he end up in A City?

Having been in A City for so long, apart from Xia Chuqing, she was surrounded by all sorts of strangers. Suddenly having Xiao Mo show up was a huge surprise!

She quickly went to open the door, and upon opening it, saw Xiao Mo standing at the doorway.

Nervously, she glanced behind him.

Xiao Mo smiled, “It’s just me.”

“Why are you here?” Xu Chaomu was delighted, “Come in and take a seat, I’ll pour you some tea.”

“A gift for you.” Xiao Mo handed her the cake.

“Wow, such a big cake, is it for me? But it’s not my birthday.”

“I know, I just bought it for you to eat.”

“Thank you so much, thank you, I love this.”

“I know.” Xiao Mo smirked, saying just three words.

In fact, he almost knew Xu Chaomu’s dietary habits by heart, aware that she loved eating cake.

After Xiao Mo entered, seeing the drawings on her table, he smiled, “Are you revising drawings?”

“Yeah, it’s giving me such a headache, this collaborator is so troublesome! I almost want to go back to Jin City and let them handle it themselves!”

“Don’t lose heart, that’s not like you.”

“I’m just saying, you know, I tend to be a bit timid.” Xu Chaomu laughed.

With that, she opened the cake box, took out the cake, and Xiao Mo helped her with it.
