Chapter 589 Blackmail
The plane landed at the international airport of the island country. Xu Mo and Eun Jing stepped off the plane side by side. As soon as they entered the arrival hall, they were blocked by an elderly woman dressed in jewelry. The old woman had a smile on her face, but with a bit of cunning. She grabbed Xu Mo's sleeve and kept shouting some incomprehensible Japanese.
Eunjung frowned at the situation in front of her, trying to figure out what was going on. She quickly switched to Japanese and asked the old woman politely: "Hello, what can I do for you?"
The old woman glanced at Eun Jing and seemed not to let Xu Mo go. She continued chattering, pointing at the suitcase in Xu Mo's hand and then at herself, as if to imply that it belonged to her.
Xu Mo didn't know why and looked at Eun Jing for help. After Eunjing patiently listened to the old woman's explanation, she translated to Xu Mo: "She said that your suitcase contains important items she lost, and she insisted on opening it to check."
Xu Mo felt helpless. He knew that there was nothing else in the suitcase except their clothes and personal belongings. He gently explained to the old woman, but she was obviously not convinced and still kept pestering her.
At this time, the airport staff noticed the dispute and hurriedly stepped forward to mediate. With the help of the staff, Xu Mo and Eun Jing opened the suitcase under the surveillance video and confirmed that there was nothing inside as the old woman said.
However, the old woman did not give up, but intensified her cry and began to cry loudly, attracting the attention of many tourists around her. The scene fell into chaos for a time, which made Xu Mo and Enjing both embarrassed and anxious.
Enjing decided to take the initiative and calmly called a local lawyer friend to seek legal assistance. At the same time, she explained the situation to the onlookers and hoped that everyone would not be misled by the old woman's performance.
Under the guidance of a lawyer friend over the phone, Enjing decisively called the police to handle the matter in accordance with local laws and regulations. After the police arrived at the scene, they learned about the situation in detail and obtained relevant surveillance videos. They finally determined that the old woman was making trouble unreasonably and ordered her not to harass Xu Mo and Eun Jing anymore.
In the early morning of the next day, the sun shone into the luxurious suite through the gaps in the curtains. Xu Mo woke up naturally from a deep sleep and felt that there seemed to be a soft weight in his arms. He turned his head slightly and suddenly discovered that Enjing had curled up in his arms without knowing it, her cheek pressed against his chest, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and her peaceful sleeping face looked particularly moving in the morning light.
He moved his body carefully, trying not to wake up Enjing, but the slight movement still made Enjing wake up. She opened her eyes and saw Xu Mo close at hand. A shy and embarrassed smile suddenly appeared on her face: "Brother Xu Mo, I'm sorry, I may have been confused last night."
Xu Mo smiled gently and responded in a low voice: "It's okay, Enjing, don't worry. You may have been too tired last night, and the environment here is unfamiliar. It's normal to have such a reaction. The important thing is that we all have a good rest. Now, get ready for a new day.”
After hearing this, Enjing felt warm in her heart. She nodded gratefully and quickly stood up and started to make the bed. At breakfast time, the two met in the hotel restaurant, enjoying a sumptuous meal while discussing the specific arrangements for today's e-sports cultural exchange activities.
On the day of the event, Xu Mo and Eun Jung once again relied on their professionalism and excellent teamwork to successfully promote the progress of various agendas and win wider recognition from the island country's e-sports industry. In between their busy schedules, they never forget to encourage and support each other, and their special tacit understanding and trust become even deeper.
In the evening, the two returned to the suite and sat together again, reviewing the day's gains and talking about future plans. Enjing looked at Xu Mo's serious face at work, and feelings of dependence and appreciation arose in her heart.
"Brother Xu Mo, I think we performed well today. We not only completed the set tasks, but also unexpectedly narrowed the distance between the e-sports industries of the two countries. I think this is all inseparable from your persistence and wisdom." Eunjing said sincerely exclaimed.
Xu Mo put down the pen in his hand and turned to look at Enjing with a firm light in his eyes: "Enjing, this is the result of our joint efforts. Every step forward and every breakthrough is created by us together. The future There is still a long way to go, and we must continue to work together to let more people understand and love e-sports culture.”
Late at night, Xu Mo was still sorting out activity information in his room, when Enjing suddenly knocked on his door. The moment he opened the door, Xu Mo was a little surprised to find that Enjing was wearing lavender pajamas. The soft color made her skin look better than snow, adding a bit of softness.
"Enjing, why did you come here dressed like this?" Xu Mo asked doubtfully, with a ripple in his heart.
Enjing lowered her eyes, and a blush appeared on her face. She bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and looked directly at Xu Mo, with an unprecedented nervousness and expectation in her tone: "Brother Xu Mo, In fact, I have always admired you and have a special feeling for you. Tonight, I can't control myself. I... I want to do something with you that adults would do."
Xu Mo was stunned. He saw that the usually capable and decisive woman in front of him now showed rare shyness and uneasiness, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment. His heart was churning. On the one hand, he was not completely ignorant of Eun Jing's feelings. On the other hand, he deeply missed Lin Yue in the distance.
"Eunjing, you know my feelings for Lin Yue, and I also cherish our friendship and cooperative relationship." Xu Mo considered his words and tried to stay calm, "I am touched by your feelings, but our current relationship , should not cross the line.”
After hearing this, the luster in Enjing's eyes dimmed instantly, but she still held back her tears and squeezed out a smile: "Brother Xu Mo, I understand, I was impulsive. Just pretend that I didn't say anything about what happened tonight. We Our working relationship will not be affected.”
Xu Mo nodded, with mixed feelings in his heart. He patted Enjing's shoulder and comforted: "Enjing, you are a very good girl. You will definitely meet someone who is really suitable for you in the future. Now, let's focus on Focus on work and work together to make this e-sports cultural exchange event a success. This is the most important thing.”
Enjing nodded vigorously. Although she was full of disappointment, she knew that Xu Mo was right. She turned and walked towards the door. Before leaving, she turned back and gave Xu Mo a relieved smile: "Brother Xu Mo, good night. Tomorrow, we will fight together."
Xu Mo silently watched Eun Jing's leaving figure, silently wishing her to find her own happiness in the future. And he himself felt a little uncomfortable in the inner turmoil...
The next morning, Enjing knocked on Xu Mo's door early and suggested that they go to the beach to watch the sunrise together. Xu Mo was slightly surprised, but still agreed readily. He knew that Enjing had always been a girl who loved life and was full of vitality. Such activities might help them temporarily put aside yesterday's embarrassment and troubles.
When the two came to the beach, the sky had just turned white, and the sea breeze blew on their cheeks with a hint of coolness. Enjing wrapped her shawl tightly and sat side by side with Xu Mo on the beach, quietly waiting for the moment when the sun rose.
Just as the sun was rising and the golden sunshine filled the sea, several young people in the distance were trying to light a bonfire on the beach, but they repeatedly failed because of the strong sea wind. Upon seeing this, Enjing immediately stood up and took the initiative to help. Her decisiveness and enthusiasm infected Xu Mo, and the two of them joined in setting up the bonfire.
After a lot of hard work, the bonfire finally burned brightly, the young faces cheered, and Enjing's face was filled with a satisfied smile. Sitting around the campfire, everyone began to share their stories. Eunjing actively mobilized the atmosphere and talked about the development process of China's e-sports industry and the importance of cultural exchanges during their trip.
Just when the atmosphere was getting heated, a sudden wave wetted the beach under everyone's feet. Seeing that the bonfire was about to go out, Enjing quickly found dry branches and sand, cleverly protected the bonfire, and successfully resolved the situation. crisis.
After the sunrise, everyone dispersed. Xu Mo looked at Enjing's side face illuminated by the morning light and couldn't help but sigh: "Eunjing, you always show your admirable side at critical moments."
Enjing smiled slightly and responded: "Brother Xu Mo, I just don't want to live up to every beautiful moment. Just like how we treat e-sports, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we must persevere and use practical actions to create more possibilities."
Afterwards, the two ended their early morning trip to the seaside amid laughter and laughter, and returned to the hotel to prepare for a new day's journey. On the way back, the young people traveling with them kindly teased Xu Mo and Eun Jing, speculating whether there were emotions between them that went beyond friendship. Faced with everyone's jokes, Enjing turned slightly red and lowered her head in silence, while Xu Mo responded with a smile and chose silence.
During lunch, Enjing found Xu Mo alone, and the two sat in a corner of the restaurant enjoying a moment of tranquility. Enjing summoned up the courage to express her feelings to Xu Mo again: "Brother Xu Mo, I know you are embarrassed by my confession last night, but I just want you to know that I am willing to accompany you through any storm, no matter it is Work or life.”
Xu Mo took a deep look at Enjing, his heart full of complicated emotions. He responded softly: "Enjing, you are an excellent and kind girl. I am touched by your true feelings. But now I only feel for Lin Yue." Responsibility and commitment. I hope you can understand that I don’t want to hurt you, let alone blur the boundaries between us.”
After hearing this, Enjing's eyes were red, but she held back her tears. She forced out a smile and nodded: "Brother Xu Mo, I understand. I respect your choice and will stick to my position. We are still the best With a good partner, I will adjust my mentality and work together for the cause of e-sports.”
In the days that followed, Enjing devoted herself to work as always, and worked with Xu Mo to deal with various challenges. Xu Mo was also deeply grateful for Eunjing's understanding and support, which strengthened his determination to lead the team to achieve greater success.
At a business meeting, when Xu Mo and Eun Jing were having in-depth exchanges with the elites of various industries in the island country on behalf of China's e-sports forces, the old woman who had been entangled at the airport unexpectedly appeared at the venue, surrounded by a group of people who seemed to be here. Unkind characters. They walked straight towards Xu Mo and Eun Jing. The old woman's eyes were full of provocation and pride.
The old woman waved the document in her hand and made a loud noise, trying to frame Xu Mo again for stealing her valuables in front of everyone, in an attempt to destroy their image in the island country and the smooth progress of this cultural exchange event. People from the surrounding island countries looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Enjing stood up and calmly explained to everyone present the real situation that happened at the airport in fluent Japanese, and showed the surveillance video at the time as evidence. However, the people brought by the old woman did not buy it. One of the men came forward arrogantly and tried to forcibly search Xu Mo's belongings.
Faced with such a provocation, Xu Mo did not back down. He straightened his back, stared at the man with burning eyes, and said word by word: "We have clarified the misunderstanding through legal channels. If you insist on infringing on my rights, then I can only take corresponding legal measures to safeguard my innocence." .”
Before she finished speaking, Enjing quickly contacted her former lawyer friend and also notified the local police. With the intervention of lawyers and the police, the group of troublemakers finally had to curb their arrogance and leave the venue angrily.
The meeting returned to normal after a brief disturbance. Xu Mo and Eun Jing won unanimous praise from the guests present with their professional abilities and calm performance in times of crisis. After the meeting, the organizers specially arranged a celebration dinner to express their gratitude for their outstanding performance.
At the dinner, Enjing raised a glass to pay tribute to Xu Mo: "Brother Xu Mo, you were so brave just now, just like you commanding Ruoding on the e-sports battlefield, which is admirable." Xu Mo responded with a smile: "Enjing, this is not Bravery is the principle and bottom line that we must adhere to. In this process, you also performed well. Your wisdom and courage are an indispensable strength of our team.”
As night falls and the starry sky shines brightly, Xu Mo and Eun Jing walk on the beach, recalling the twists and turns and growth of this journey. They agreed that no matter what challenges they face in the future, they will work together to defend their dignity and career with actions.
"Eunjing, thank you for accompanying me through this difficult time. Your tenacity and wisdom make me more convinced that we can create more miracles together." Xu Mo said with emotion.
Enjing looked up at the starry sky with a confident smile on her lips: "Brother Xu Mo, we will definitely do it. No matter how many unknown challenges there are ahead, as long as we are united, nothing is invincible."
The conversation drifted away in the sea breeze at night, leaving behind two steadfast figures, moving forward bravely towards a common goal. This friendship of fighting side by side and common expectations for the future have undoubtedly become the most precious things in their life journey. memories. (End of chapter)
