Chapter 1358: A Rising Storm! A Love That Was Never Meant to Be! (8)
‘How about we get engaged first…’ A thought suddenly entered Mo Feifei’s head.
Putting herself in Shang Mo’s shoes, if her boyfriend were to go overseas for three years and could not meet her frequently, she would be whiny too. As such, Shang Mo’s displeasure was understandable. Hence, if she told him to get engaged with her, would it provide some sort of consolation to him?
Just opened her mouth and hesitated on how she should break the news to him when her colleague screamed for her name.
“Feifei, the department head called for you to go to his office.”
Her colleague’s voice was pretty loud, even Shang Mo who was on the other line could hear her. “You can continue with your work first.”
“Okay, we will continue with our conversation when we get home.” Mo Feifei ended the call and went to the department head’s office.
From the beginning, Da Wei, the department head and also known as ‘Pretty Uncle’, had a very poor impression on Mo Feifei.
After all, he disliked people who went through the back door the most. However, his impression of Mo Feifei totally changed after working with her.
She was capable and had a passion for learning. Most importantly, she had a great personality and was very reliable. Even Da Wei wanted to personally train her to become a designer which was far different from the time she first entered the office. She was often left to fend for herself before.
He placed a file on the table and pushed it towards Mo Feifei. “These are the details for our collaboration project with DK. In the next two months, I hope you can assist me in completing this project.”
In the next two months? But she was leaving at the end of the month…
She pondered for a moment before breaking into a smile. “There’s something I have wanted to say. I have applied to RISD and recently received their acceptance letter. As you are aware, RISD is starting school at the end of the month, so…”
Da Wei was very surprised and his eyes twinkled. “You’ve been accepted into RISD?”
“Yes, I am going abroad for advanced studies for three years and I will be leaving at the end of the month. Hence, I may not be able to finish the project with you. Nonetheless, I am very thankful for your hospitality for the past few months.” Mo Feifei gave a shy smile.
“That’s great.” Da Wei happily said, “The company has a talent program where you can be provided with a three-year scholarship, however, you have to work for the company once you are finished with your studies.”
“There’s such a program?” Mo Feifei was very surprised. If she could get it, it would indeed save her a lot of trouble, at least she need not work to earn her school tuition fees while studying.
“Of course! I can pass a recommendation letter for you, but you must be mentally prepared that you might not be selected.”
“Alright, thank you.” For obvious reasons, Mo Feifei was not surprised that Shang Mo did not tell her about the program. Her guess was that he would probably just give her a card if he found out that she was short of cash.
Da Wei gave Mr. Shang a call. But he didn’t put too many hopes and expectations that he would agree to his request. He initially thought that he would have to spend a long time persuading him, however, Mr. Shang agreed upon the mention of Mo Feifei’s name and that surprised him a lot.
He gave a sigh. Indeed, everyone had a good eye for talents. Then again, talented people always shone under the spotlight regardless of where they went.
In the afternoon, Da Wei told Mo Feifei the good news; however, Mo Feifei did not seem very happy.
It was because when she went to apply for her visa in the afternoon, she got rejected.
The embassy rejected her for the fear that her motive for going abroad was not simple and that the possibility of her staying abroad was very high. Upon hearing their reasoning, she felt like she was going to have a headache… She really could not understand how her motive for going abroad was not simple.
However, the other party refused to listen to her explanation and waved her away.
After two days, Mo Feifei went again, but she was rejected for the second time. Because it had only been a short while, the embassy recognized her and even said that her persistence only made her seem more suspicious.
Mo Feifei: “…”
