Transmigrating into the Reborn Male Lead's Ex-BoyfriendCh31 - Looking for a Boyfriend

Translated by Eve

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice and saw a fair-skinned, young man with a gentle aura walk over. Although he was walking at a hurried pace, he still looked elegant. Zx2Xlm

Bai Mo walked over to Xiao Yuanmu and asked worriedly, “Are you okay?”

The spectators, who were curious about the young man, exchanged glances when they heard this. This young man dressed in expensive clothes seemed to have come to help Xiao Yuanmu.

However, Xiao Yuanmu only gave him a cool glance as if he wasn’t moved by the other’s arrival. His chilly voice was distant and apathetic. “I’m fine.”

When Bai Mo heard this, he smiled and said, “That’s good.” After that, he turned to look at the waiter he had stopped. There was an apologetic look on his face. “I’m really sorry that this happened. I apologize on my employee’s behalf.” Ll8uSG

The people watching this scene were all slightly startled before realizing that the person in front of them was likely the person in charge of this club.

Song Jiabao didn’t think that Bai Mo would cause trouble for him at this time. He pushed down the surprise in his eyes and said in a meaningful tone, “Bai shaoye, although you’re the young master here at White Moon, as the master of this establishment, shouldn’t you hear your subordinate’s side of the story before condemning him? You’ll disappoint them like this, ah.”

Bai Mo furrowed his brows and said to Song Jiabao, “Mr. Song, the first thing every single one of White Moon’s employees learns upon hiring is to respect our clients. The customer is always right. Even if it’s only a little detail that causes our client’s dissatisfaction, we must apologize. This isn’t just for the sake of our clients’ experience but also because of White Moon’s philosophy of putting our guests first. Moreover, my employee has indeed made a mistake. How could I be disappointing them?”

After saying this, Bai Mo told the waiter, “Right now, apologize to Mr. Xiao again like how you were taught.”

The waiter’s lips were trembling, being watched by so many people. He carefully gazed at the indifferent Xiao Yuanmu before bowing down to a ninety-degree angle and saying, “I apologize profusely for having spilled wine on you. If you don’t mind, please allow me to take you upstairs where you can wash up. We will help wash your clothes before returning them to you.”

When they heard this formal apology, the spectators all realized that although the employee had been apologizing this whole time, he had never mentioned taking Xiao Yuanmu upstairs to change. Simply apologizing for ruining someone’s clothes really didn’t have any sincerity behind it. No wonder Xiao Yuanmu hadn’t paid attention to him.

Moreover, Xiao Yuanmu still hadn’t spoken. He hadn’t said that he wouldn’t accept the apology. They had all rushed forward to speak on the waiter’s behalf before he could. Hadn’t they been forcing him to accept the apology? If it was someone with a rebellious nature, they would not feel like accepting the apology now after having been criticized like this even if they had originally intended to do so.

When they thought like this, their gazes towards Xiao Yuanmu changed yet again. Regardless of Xiao Yuanmu’s identity, he hadn’t been giving the waiter a hard time just now. They had blindly condemned him and had taken advantage of their numbers to bully him. LbMQuU

When he saw that Bai Mo had managed to change the tides with a few words, Song Jiabao’s expression changed slightly. His eyes were full of anger.

He hadn’t thought that Bai Mo wouldn’t give him any face over Xiao Yuanmu. Not only that, but Song Jiabao had also just told the waiter that he was off the hook, using his authority as the event’s host. However, Bai Mo now wanted to pursue the matter and have the waiter apologize again. This was like a slap to Song Jiabao’s face, forcing him into an awkward situation he wouldn’t be able to get out of.

Just as Song Jiabao’s expression turned uglier and uglier, Xiao Yuanmu said, “I won’t accept your apology.”

His voice was cold, and his tone was flat. There was no emotion in it. Everyone wondered if they had heard him wrongly. YzCv3E

Everyone here thought like that. They hadn’t expected that, even when the person in charge of the club had personally apologized, Xiao Yuanmu would still put on airs and refuse to accept it.

At this moment, no one was more overjoyed than Song Jiabao. He couldn’t do anything to Song Xuanhe. Furthermore, Bai Mo was protecting Xiao Yuanmu. However, they couldn’t stop Xiao Yuanmu from being troublesome on his own. This person really thought that he was a young master equal to them after spending some time in the higher strata of society. It was time to remind him of his place.

Only Bai Mo remained as gentle as before. He pursed his lips, two dimples appearing. He looked even more amiable and approachable. His eyes were full of trust when he looked at Xiao Yuanmu. He asked, “Is there something I don’t know about?” 5WLeQ2

Xiao Yuanmu’s eyes softened imperceptibly. He looked at Bai Mo, tone not as cold as before. His voice was still as pleasant to listen to as before. “When he bumped into that woman, his steps were still steady. When the wine fell towards me, his expression was calm.”

Bai Mo’s expression froze. He was surprised. “Are you saying that he did it on purpose?”

Xiao Yuanmu didn’t respond, his expression indifferent.

Bai Mo frowned. He turned to the waiter and said, “Tell me what really happened.” dz4bKy

The waiter shook his head at once. “It was really an accident! I don’t know why this gentleman says that I did it on purpose! I don’t gain anything from spilling wine onto him!”

When Bai Mo heard this, he looked at Xiao Yuanmu, looking like he was stuck in a difficult position. Even if he trusted Xiao Yuanmu, as long as this waiter refused to admit that he did it on purpose, he couldn’t penalize his employee without proof.

Xiao Yuanmu hadn’t said anything yet when another voice chimed in. “I have proof, ah.”

Song Xuanhe had been dragged over helplessly by Zhou Nan. As soon as he got his footing, Zhou Nan continued, “I had been drinking wine over there and just so happened to see Song Jiabao give that waiter some money. I had thought that it was a tip. I hadn’t thought that it was actually for his ‘service.’” AU1Bqw

As soon as Zhou Nan said that, Song Jiabao raised his voice, “Zhou Nan, you have to have proof when you make these accusations. I will not stand for you slandering me without any grounds.”

“Do you think I’d stand up without any proof?” Zhou Nan’s lips curled up into a wicked smile. “You know, it’s one thing not to find a reliable person to do work for you, but you should have found a place without anyone around before you had given him money. You’re a little too overly confident, don’t you think? You even think it’s other people who are stupid.”

Bai Mo interrupted Song Jiabao before the other could refute this. He asked Zhou Nan gently, “Zhou shao, if you have proof, can you take it out? I would like to clear Mr. Xiao’s name as quickly as possible on behalf of the club.”

Zhou Nan had a pretty good impression of Bai Mo, so he didn’t cause trouble for him. He swept a gaze over the crowd before his eyes landed on a waiter not too far away. “Brother, can you come over here for a second? Take out your cellphone while you’re at it.” vx6ey3

The waiter was startled. He took two steps back in alarm, seeing everyone’s gaze on him. His face had turned deathly white.

Zhou Nan smiled, “You didn’t do anything wrong. All you did was capture a scene of bribery. What are you so nervous about? You can clear the name of one of the club’s guests with your phone. Your club’s boss is here too. He will definitely give you a promotion and raise.”

When Bai Mo heard this, he agreed. “Yes. If you can provide proof, the club will reward you.”

This reassured the waiter. He pulled out his phone and walked over. T r1W5

When everyone saw this, there was no need for them to even see the evidence on the phone. They all already knew that Zhou Nan hadn’t been lying.

Later on, it was discovered that the video on this waiter’s phone showed exactly what Zhou Nan had said. That other waiter had been paid by Song Jiabao to splash wine onto Xiao Yuanmu. Furthermore, you could hear a bit of their conversation through the video. Song Jiabao had no way to say that it had just been a tip.

Now that the truth had come to light, Song Jiabao’s expression flickered between fear and anger under everyone’s eyes. In the end, his face turned the shade of pig’s liver. Despite it all, he could not refute the evidence.

The majority of people here were future employees of Song Jiabao’s company. Quite a few of them were also possible partners as well as a few rich second generations who had been invited. kuJ5XK

Everyone kind of wanted to continue watching this farce, after having seen Song Jiabao get crushed and face-slapped after failing to trap someone else. However, although it was an entertaining show, their impression of Song Jiabao still fell.

Even the new employees, who had just joined the company, now had doubts about their boss’s reliability, let alone the biggest investor, Guo Tao. His expression was incredibly ugly right now.

He hadn’t seen the entire process. He had been upstairs with a few other possible partners earlier. He hadn’t expected that halfway through, his assistant would knock on the door and tell him about Song Jiabao.

Guo Tao had already been vexed over Song Jiabao’s lack of regard for time and place in trying to make things difficult for Song Xuanhe. Later on, after Song Xuanhe had warned him, his issue with Song Jiabao only grew. He had been planning on investigating the matter after going home. qydI0M

But what he hadn’t expected was that even before this reception was over, Song Jiabao would once again be up to no good.

He knew Song Jiabao’s personality. When he had heard that Zhou Nan had evidence, he apologized to the big shots he had been with and came downstairs immediately. Who would have expected that Song Jiabao would have been so stupid as to give someone money in public and be caught while at it? Forgive him for being harsh, but not even a pig was that stupid.

Right now, even if he didn’t look into what Song Xuanhe had said, Guo Tao really didn’t want to work with Song Jiabao anymore. Something was bound to crop up, working with someone like this. As long as Song Jiabao was around, his future would not be safe.

It was just that, although Song Jiabao didn’t invest a lot into the company, it wasn’t a little amount either. It wouldn’t be easy to find a new partner to make up for that shortfall. dGR7oJ

When he thought of this, Guo Tao could only suppress his anger and dissatisfaction. He came to break up the scene. “Song shao, you’re here, ah. I was just upstairs with a few guests and had originally planned on having Bai xiao shaoye send you wine. I just finished up though and was planning on opening a bottle of good wine. How about we have a glass together? Mr. Xiao, Zhou shao, and Bai xiao shaoye can also join. What do you think?”

Since Song Xuanhe had come over, Xiao Yuanmu’s eyes had been glued onto him. Song Xuanhe didn’t know what the other was thinking. He could only do his best to act natural and wait for Xiao Yuanmu to look away.

However, even though Zhou Nan had pulled out proof, Song Jiabao’s expression had changed, and Bai Mo had even apologized, Xiao Yuanmu’s gaze was still on Song Xuanhe, pensive. Song Xuanhe couldn’t do anything like this. Now that he had heard Guo Tao’s request, he relaxed and nodded. “Okay.”

The party of five went upstairs, and the crowd in the hall dispersed. Only Song Jiabao stayed, face pale and livid. FdBHxg

He was Guo Tao’s partner, but the other had called Song Xuanhe and co. to leave with him without calling him too. The other wasn’t giving him any face at all.

However, no one upstairs cared about how Song Jiabao felt. After Guo Tao sat down, he apologized to Song Xuanhe. “Song shao, Mr. Xiao, sorry. I have made you suffer an unpleasant night.”

Song Xuanhe waved his hand, indicating that it was fine.

Guo Tao sighed in relief before turning to Bai Mo. He gave his sincere thanks. “Bai xiao shaoye, thank you so much for today. Without you, everyone would have misunderstood Mr. Xiao. I wouldn’t have been able to face Song shao if it had come to that.” There was an intimate joking tone over his last sentence. 41CaG2

Bai Mo smiled and said, “No matter what, I am the owner of this club. You don’t have to thank me. Furthermore, I felt like Mr. Xiao and I were friends at first sight. I feel like we are good friends. It’s only expected that I help a friend in trouble.”

As soon as Bai Mo had spoken, the atmosphere became strange.

Although Bai Mo had called Xiao Yuanmu a friend, everyone here knew that he was Song Xuanhe’s partner. Therefore, it was a bit inappropriate for him to say such things.

Furthermore, Song Xuanhe had also been around this whole time. However, Bai Mo had said that ‘It was expected.’ This was secretly hinting that Song Xuanhe didn’t care about Xiao Yuanmu. waDFjr

At this time, no one spoke.

When Bai Mo saw this, he was first surprised before an expression of self-blame took over. He first looked at Xiao Yuanmu and then at Song Xuanhe. “Song shao, I didn’t mean it like that just now. I misspoke. Sorry. I definitely don’t have any other intentions towards Mr. Xiao. Please don’t misunderstand.”

Song Xuanhe raised a brow. He was about to speak when he heard Xiao Yuanmu say in an insipid tone, “He won’t misunderstand. I would never have any intentions towards you.”

Eve: Bai Mo…rubs me the wrong way so much. BUT YOU GO MUMU. Put him in his place. Draw those lines!!! Let everyone know you only have Xuan bao in your eyes! 0Zf7HT
