Chapter 548: Chapter 377: What a Mo Shiting, he actually left her and ran away?_1

Show off?

“Pfft–”

Gu Li couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.

“You guys–hmph!”

Seeing them openly teasing him, Old Master Mo was even more annoyed and walked away even faster.

Looking at his vigorous stride, he didn’t appear to be an octogenarian at all.

Gu Li couldn’t help but secretly agree, the old master was indeed as robust as Mo Shiting had said.

This fact made her instantly cheerful.

In the daze, a large hand suddenly draped around her shoulder, followed by an extremely ambiguous low male voice in her ear, “Let’s go back to the room and rest, ok?”

Gu Li’s pretty face turned pink.

It wasn’t her fault to overthink, but why did she feel that his words were up to no good?

As it turned out, Gu Li guessed right. After returning to their room, Mo Shiting took her unceremoniously into the bathroom to have his way with her.

The consequence of excessive love was that Gu Li couldn’t get out of bed the next day.

As for a certain culprit, he was refreshed and cheerful early in the morning, changed into comfortable sportswear and went for a morning run.

“Grandpa–”

Old Master Mo always had a habit of exercising in the morning, and there he was, running into his grandson beside the artificial lake behind the villa.

Old Master Mo had just performed a few moves of Tai Chi, and seeing Mo Shiting running towards him, he was unexpectedly reminded of how this young man had defied him last night, choosing not to propose marriage at the Gu family, making him so annoyed that he didn’t want to deal with him.

Mo Shiting slowed down and jogged up to him, asking casually, “Really mad?”

“Hmph!”

Old Master Mo snorted, “How dare I get mad? I was just showing off.”

Mo Shiting: “…”

It seemed he was truly mad.

Old men can be as stubborn as children, and there was no lie in that statement.

Mo Shiting curved his lips, his eyes softening a bit, “Grandpa, Tang Tang is destined to be the Mo Family’s daughter-in-law. How can you not trust me at all?”

Old Master Mo just wanted him to get married right away, afraid that Tang Tang would be snatched away by others, didn’t he?

However, Mo Shiting was not worried about this at all.

First, he deeply believed in Gu Li’s loyalty towards him; second, he was steadfast in his love and commitment, once he had decided on her, he would never let go for a lifetime, and would not give Gu Li any chances to change her heart.

Old Master Mo glared at him, “As far as I know, all the men who like Little Pear are nobles, each one more outstanding than the other, yet you don’t seem anxious at all.”

“Heh!”

Mo Shiting scoffed disdainfully, not wanting to comment on those so-called rivals in love.

This was showing the greatest indifference to those people.

Seeing him act this way, Old Master Mo finally didn’t worry so much. After all, although the other men who liked Gu Li were outstanding, his grandson was no less impressive.

Whether in terms of appearance, ability, background, or strategy, there were very few in the world who could compete with him.

He had purposely said those words just now to provoke him, but who knew, this young man didn’t take the bait, quite a disappointment.

“Sigh!”

Old Master Mo sighed heavily, then asked him calmly, “So when do you plan on going to A Nation?”

Without hesitation, Mo Shiting replied, “After breakfast, I’ll make a move. I’m not taking Tang Tang with me.”

This time going to see Gu Yuan will inevitably come with some difficulties. He is capable of handling it, there’s no need for Gu Li to suffer with him.

Furthermore, although he’s not worried about Gu Li being snatched away, he still eagerly wants to become husband and wife with her in the true sense as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this, Old Master Mo nodded in satisfaction, “That’s more like it, worthy of being my good grandson.”

Mo Shiting said, “I’m going to trouble you to take care of Tang Tang for the next few days.”

Old Master Mo was speechless, “What? Are you afraid I’ll mistreat her? Are you deliberately trying to drive me to an early grave just for your grandpa’s antique chess set?”

Mo Shiting: “…”

After the morning run was over and Mo Shiting had comfortably taken a shower and returned to his room, Gu Li was still sleeping, of course.

Mo Shiting didn’t wake her up, but rather walked quietly to the side of the bed, bent down to kiss her forehead, whispered a quiet “Baby, I’m leaving,” and then reluctantly left.

Gu Li didn’t wake up until late in the day.

She reached for her phone on the nightstand and saw that, wow, it was already noon.

Where is Brother Ting?

Why didn’t he wake her up?

Oh, today is Friday, Brother Ting probably went back to the company, right?

As Gu Li thought, she slowly got up, supporting her slender waist.

After freshening up, she finally had the chance to check her phone.

She opened WeChat and noticed that Mo Shiting had sent her a message two hours ago.

[Baby, I’m going to your house. Take care of yourself.]

Reading this, Gu Li pouted.

This Mo Shiting, he actually left her behind and ran away?

That was too much, wasn’t it?

She was frustrated but still worried about him. Thus, she affectionately replied: [I know, Brother Ting. Be safe out there. If my father gives you a hard time and sets some harsh conditions, just ignore him.]

Perhaps Mo Shiting was on the plane, as he didn’t immediately reply to her message.

Gu Li’s stomach was grumbling with hunger, so she decided to go downstairs and find something to eat.

Just as she got down the stairs, she saw Aunt Liang walk in from outside with a beaming smile, “Young Madam, Old Master Mo has ordered the kitchen to prepare your favorite hot pot. We’re just waiting for you to come to the main building for a meal.”

“Wow, really? That’s great.”

The moment she heard that there was hot pot, Gu Li’s eyes immediately lit up.

Now that the weather was getting colder, nothing could be more satisfying than a hot and steamy hot pot meal.

Rushing to the main building, Old Master Mo was indeed sitting at the dining table, reading his newspaper and waiting for her.

Gu Li swept back her hair and walked over feeling a bit embarrassed, “I’m sorry, Grandpa, for coming late and making you wait.”

Old Master Mo put down his newspaper and revealed a kind smile, “It’s fine, I’m not hungry anyway. But you must be starving, aren’t you?”

“Hehe, it’s alright.”

Gu Li gave a bashful smile, sat down across from him, and skillfully started dipping pieces of beef into the hot pot.

She was starving, at this point, she could probably eat a whole cow.

However, no matter how hungry she was, she had not forgotten her manners, and took care of Old Master Mo first, “Grandpa, have some beef.”

With that said, she directly put the cooked beef into Old Master Mo’s bowl.

Old Master Mo was beaming, finally having some meat to eat, but just as he took a few bites, he heard Gu Li saying, “Grandpa, even though you are robust, you have high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol. You should eat light, so no more meat. I’ll cook more vegetables for you.”

Old Master Mo: “???!?!!”

If he had known earlier, he would have taken advantage of her absence to eat some meat first before she came.

Gu Li saw through Old Master Mo’s thoughts, her beautiful eyes twinkled and she cheerily said, “Grandpa, there’s a vegan hot pot restaurant that’s very good and super healthy. How about I take you there next time?”

“Really? Then let’s consider it a deal.”

Old Master Mo was overjoyed.

Gu Li smiled and nodded, “Ok!”

Mo Shiting, looking travel-worn, arrived in A Nation. It was already past 8 PM local time.

He did not return to his hotel to rest, but went directly to visit Gu Yuan at the Gu Family’s residence.
