Chapter 199: Like an Old Friend Arrives 15

Su Mo subconsciously covers her eyes: "You, you quickly put your clothes on!"

Yue Ying, his face flushed, puts on his clothes and says, "All right~"

Su Mo lowers her hand, her face slightly pink, looks at the Yue Ying before her and says, "Since you've already taken shape, let's go eat together."

Yue Ying smiles obediently: "Mm, okay."

Heaven knows how much he now wants to rush over and hug the person, but it seems impossible; he's not even a boyfriend… In the Beast World, at least he originally had the status of a fiancé.

Thinking of this brings another handful of bitter tears.

When Su Mo takes Yue Ying past, Xuan Qing and the other two wore an expression of calm.

Xiao Jiu and Fu Ying look at the person behind her and can't help but be slightly surprised.

Fu Ying quickly catches on and laughs, "That fox's skin is truly amazing~"

Especially those eyes—wow, they're literally a soul‑capturing weapon!

Fu Ying whispers to Xiao Jiu, "No need to push Su Mo to make up that drink she and Xuan Qing registered for; let's wait a bit longer and let her treat everyone together."

Xiao Jiu nods; having to host a meal left and right for these matters is indeed troublesome.

Before the meal, she quietly takes a photo and then clicks send.

Fu Ying watches her sneaky actions and frowns, "Who are you sending a message to?"

"Long Yan~"

Fu Ying smiles, "If he knew and got anxious, he wouldn't have been preempted by Xuan Qing."

She shifts tone, "Wen Tun is a bit slow, but… his status is also indisputable."

…

The newly shaped fox is a bit clingy, waiting for Su Mo at work and after work precisely every day.

Almost all the small and big matters in Su Mo's clinic have been taken over by him.

Days pass one by one, and summer arrives quickly.

The temperature in South City rises day by day, and during this season people's appetites are poor.

Yet Su Mo's dining table is always filled with various exquisite dishes; before nightfall, Fei Yan sends her a message.

He says Xuan Qing has something tonight, and he'll come over to take her downstairs for a meal.

Some people seem to blend into life silently.

…

Inside the clinic, Fu Ying quietly says to Yue Ying, "Hey, fox, how long have you been a third wheel, and still no progress?"

Yue Ying looks at her unhappily, then whispers, "Rivals are many and hard to deal with… Sister, give me a tip~"

"Pfft~" Fu Ying can't hold back a laugh, then whispers a few words to him quietly.

Yue Ying's eyes light up at the words, nodding repeatedly.

From not far away, Su Mo glances at the two whispering, her eyelids twitch.

She only feels that what they're saying can't be good news.

As she walks toward Fu Ying, Yue Ying has already disappeared.

"What did you say to him again?"

Fu Ying raises an eyebrow, "What could I possibly say to him? With that brain of his, does he even need me to say anything?"

Just as she was about to continue, Su Mo turns her head toward the TV hanging on the wall.

A familiar license plate flashes across the screen.

The host, holding the topic, looks serious: "A chain‑reaction traffic accident occurred at the South City border; casualties are still unknown. Please await further reporting."

Fu Ying frowns, "Mo Xiao's car?"

Su Mo subconsciously pulls out her phone; before she can dial, she receives an incoming call.

"Hello, may I speak to Miss Su? Please come to South City Huan Shan Road…"

Su Mo hangs up, grabs the bag beside her and prepares to leave.

Yue Ying hurries after her, "I'll go with you."

When she and Yue Ying arrive at the location, the scene is chaotic, with car debris and some bloodstains; the sight is shocking.

She anxiously searches through the wreckage for that familiar figure, and finally spots the silhouette among the crowd.

Mo Xiao only has a scratched arm; when the police called Su Mo, he was receiving a bandage.

She is the first contact in his address book, so they called her first.

Su Mo looks at his bandaged arm, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes, then quickly eases.

Fortunately, it's only a minor injury.

Yue Ying beside her also lets out a sigh of relief.

Mo Xiao tells the people beside him a few words, then strides toward Su Mo.

Before she can react, he grabs her in a hug.

His deep voice sounds in her ear: "I like you, you know that, right? Whether in the past or now, I've always only liked you."

Between life and death, he's been thinking that after the reunion, he didn't get a chance to tell her this again.

He always thought she would understand; even if she doesn't remember what happened before, she'll recall those early feelings. Give her time, and it will work.

But after today's events, he suddenly realizes that some things are better said early than late.

They've already gone through an accident once, haven't they?

Life is always unpredictable, tomorrow uncertain; only the feelings of this moment are the most genuine.

What can be done today shouldn't be left for tomorrow.

Mo Xiao holds her and laughs, "This time, please allow me to fight for myself again; can you give me another chance, so I can prove to you that I'm worthy of your affection."

Su Mo leaned against his chest, curved her lips and said, "You don't need to prove anything to me any more; I've already seen how good you are."

Some people, once they appear, seem to gradually become an indelible part of one's life.

On the way there, she had only one thought in her mind: he must not get into trouble; she cannot lose him.

Fortunately, today was just a false alarm.

Not far away, Xuan Qing and Fei Yan arrived one after another, and they smiled knowingly at the embracing silhouettes not far off.

Only Yue Ying wore a sour expression; he felt that this Stinky Snake held a grudge against him!

In the past he fought him for the Right Husband position; now he's stealing the confession right in front of him!!!

Sure enough, the old rival lives up to his reputation, always knowing how to snatch him away!

—

Su Mo received another message from Long Yan, which came after she had been with those three for a little over a month since their registration.

He invited her to the place where he was, and also sent her many landscape photos.

He had sent these before, but most of them she declined, saying she was busy at the clinic.

This time, Su Mo felt it was time to go out for a walk. She still wants to continue further study and prepare for exams, so there might not be much chance to go out again.

The most critical thing is that several people at home are overly clingy… she urgently needs to get out and catch a breath.

Su Mo quietly booked a ticket, without telling anyone.

Only right before takeoff did she send them a message.

Yue Ying, fuming, gritted his teeth: "My Mo‑er, you were run off again by that shameless Stinky Dragon?!"

He asked the group: "Are we still chasing this time?"

Xuan Qing: "Not going."

Mo Xiao: "Not going either."

Fei Yan: "Agree."

Yue Ying: "..."

"What's this?"

He can't be the only one, acting like a jealous bottle, wildly chasing after them…

Fine, this time we'll just give that Stinky Dragon a chance!

After Su Mo arrived at the destination airport, she immediately sent Long Yan a message.

Soon a call came from that side: "Look to your left."

Su Mo turned around and saw the person waiting not far away; Long Yan was a bit darker than in the video, but his appearance hadn't changed much.

She dragged her suitcase toward him, and in a moment of carelessness didn't notice the person walking by her side, and she collided with them with a "Bang!"

The other's belongings fell to the ground, and Su Mo crouched down to help pick them up.

A voice, trembling with excitement, suddenly rang in her ears: "Wife Master?!"

Instinctively, Su Mo lifted her gaze and saw a youth before her, his skin so white it was almost translucent, and his light‑blue pupils seemed to glow.

When he looked at her, a gleam of clear water shimmered in his eyes, and an indescribable emotion surged and spread within them.
