From Dusk till Dawn!

Chapter 423: Embarrassing past

"Alright, I'll take them into consideration," Mo Yuhan indifferently nodded at the woman named Lan Xingyu after the discussion was over.

"Of course. Thank you, President Mo," She stood up, "Do you have a girlfriend?" If you don't, I can take the place. The woman smiled elegantly, masking her inner thoughts. 

"No."

"Then-" 

"I have a wife."

"_" This was unexpected for Lan Xingyu who ran away from her brother to find the boy of her dreams who had now grown up into a flawlessly desirable man.

Lan Xingyu nodded before walking out of the office cursing the girl named Lili in her heart. Back then, if that classmate of hers hadn't stolen her love letter, then she would have been his wife today.

Her footsteps came to an abrupt halt as her eyes widened. Don't tell me he is married to her? That thief! Her fingers curled into a fist. No, if he really married that girl, then she will snatch him from under her nose. 

She took out her cellphone before looking at the address that her private investigation team has sent her. Grace Villa? Her brows tugged together slightly. Will he think of me as a creep if I go there?

Lan Xingyu shook her head. Before her brother comes here, she will have to complete her mission. 

...

"I missed you," Tang Li kissed Mo Yuhan as soon as he opened the door for her. 

As their lips parted, he pressed a soft kiss on her forehead, "Dinner is ready. Get freshened up, first." 

"Alright," She paused in her tracks, "Yuhan, do you think Zihan is busy? I tried to call him but he is not responding to my calls at all. And I couldn't contact Yueyue."

"The situation in Su Corps is a bit messy recently but he will get through this on his own. They must be busy now. You can talk to them when they are back."

"Alright," Tang Li pressed a soft kiss on his lips before running there. 

Mo Yuhan stood there, running his fingers on his lips as his eyes darkened. This could not be counted as a proper kiss.

After freshening up, the couple sat at the dining table. 

"This is so good," Tang Li licked her bottom lips. 

Mo Yuhan wiped the corner of her lips with his thumb before putting it in his mouth, "Hmm, good." 

She blinked. 

Just as she opened her mouth to say something, the doorbell rang. 

"Do we have a guest?" She glanced at him. 

"I'll check," Mo Yuhan stood up and walked towards the door. 

Tang Li glanced at the time. Who could be here at this hour? 

The frown on her face got deeper when she heard a woman's voice which sounded slightly familiar to her but she could not pinpoint where she had heard the voice until she saw the face. 

Mo Yuhan looked at her, "This is Tang Li, my wife and this is President Lan Xifan's younger sister."

Lan Xingyu was speechless. Did he just see her as her brother's younger sister? Shouldn't he at least introduce her as an investor? 

Wait...Tang Li....? Her eyes widened and her head snapped towards the woman within a second. A gasp escaped her mouth when she recognized her, "You...?"

Tang Li raised an eyebrow, ''Didn't expect to see you here.."

Mo Yuhan glanced at Tang Li, "You both know each other?"

"We've met in the airport back when we were in States," Tang Li's voice turned lower towards the end.

Mo Yuhan narrowed his eyes, "The one you had given your ticket to?" 

She slowly nodded. 

Wordlessly, the man glanced at Lan Xingyu, "Wait here, I'll get the files," With that, he walked upstairs leaving both the women in each other's presence. 

The atmosphere turned a bit awkward. 

Tang Li glanced at the woman who had her eyeballs almost popping out. She cleared her throat, "Well, you know me already. Tang Li," She extended her hand towards the woman. 

The woman took her hand before shaking it slowly, "Lan Xingyu."

"WHO?!" Tang Li's eyes narrowed ever so slightly as she retracted her hand.

"I am Lan Xingyu." 

Red hair. Lan Xingyu. 

No...It must be a coincidence. Still, Tang Li opened her mouth to ask, "Were you, by any chance, Mo Yuhan's schoolmate?"

"Yes, how do you know that?

"That's because I was your classmate," Even though Tang Li mumbled it under her breath, Lan Xingyu still heard it. 

"But I don't remember knowing anyone by your name..." Lan Xingyu frowned.

That's because no one knew my full name. Tang Li thought to herself. 

How could she forget her classmates, moreover, one with such strikingly beautiful looks? She looked at her from head to toe but only a few features started registering in her mind. Hazel eyes. Long black hair. Lan Xingyu's eyes widened, "Are you Lili?"

Tang Li did not think the woman would manage to recognize her, "Well..." 

And that moment of hesitation was enough for Lan Xingyu to know everything. Tang Li. Li. Lili.

Her face turned red in anger, "If you did not steal my love letter, then I would have been his wife today..."

Tang Li pursed her lips, "Don't delude herself,'' At that time, Mo Yuhan treated her like a sister so out of her insecurity, she did that but now that she knew how he felt, she was sure that he would have been hers regardless if he received a letter from someone or not. 

"You..." Lan Xingyu took a few deep breathes, "If you weren't jealous of me or if you weren't worried that I'll succeed in becoming his girlfriend, why else would you steal my love letter?"

Because I was young and immature. I just did not want to take risks. Tang Li thought to herself but did not voice it out.

"What's with that expression?"

Tang Li massaged her forehead, "I owe you one for what happened," No matter what, the fact that she stole someone's private belongings and destroyed it could not be justified.
