Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

“Here.”

Lu Yang was driving and glanced back when he heard the voice.

“Drive slower.”

“Yes.”

Knowing that the young master intentionally wanted to make those people wait, Lu Yang didn’t say a word, only drove at a snail’s pace.

Meanwhile, at Mo Family Villa.

The main hall of the large house was packed with people.

It was the same group of elders as before, however, the one with the most influence, Mo Xingxian, Old Master Mo’s younger brother, wasn’t there.

The old man was sick and resting in bed, unable to come.

“Uncle, the civil affairs bureau’s system shows that Shiting and Gu Li are really divorced. You have no arguments left, right? Please return control to Shiting.”

Mo Jianming stood in the middle of the hall, speaking to Old Master Mo, who was seated in the main seat.

His attitude was respectful, but the tone of his words was particularly irritating.

Old Master Mo cleared his throat, “You don’t need to rush, everything will be clear when Shiting arrives.”

“Uncle, it’s not fun if you talk like that.”

Mo Jianyu began to support Mo Jianming, “Awhile ago, everyone here swore in front of our ancestor’s tablets. Now that Shiting’s divorce is a fact, do you still want to cover up for him?”

Old Master Mo was infuriated by the two brothers, “Who said I’m covering up for him? If Mo Shiting dares to divorce, I’ll be the first to not let him off!”

Seeing this, the elders looked at each other in dismay.

One of them couldn’t help but advise the old master, “Big brother, don’t get upset. I see, Jianming and Jianyu are not lying. Shiting’s marriage itself was strange…”

The old man became even more unhappy, “You shut up! What do you mean strange? Is the marriage I arranged strange too?”

“This…”

The elder was silenced, his face red with embarrassment.

Old Master Mo was holding his own against a dozen people, no one dared to argue with him.

Firstly, they couldn’t win the argument. Secondly, he was the oldest in both age and generation here. If there were any unforeseen incidents, Mo Shiting would surely kill them, wouldn’t he?

While the elders had their own designs on Mo Shiting, they were still deeply wary of this junior member.

It is precisely because of their fear of Mo Shiting that they secretly want to support Mo Jianming and Mo Jianyu to take over.

If the person in power became Mo Jianming or Mo Jianyu, their descendants would still have a chance of seizing power in the future. But if Mo Shiting remained in power with his autocratic and capable command, when would they ever get a chance?

Therefore, after thorough calculations, they had no choice but to join forces with Mo Jianming and Mo Jianyu.

Today, it’s their only chance to pull Mo Shiting down. They naturally tried their utmost against Old Master Mo only to be defeated miserably.

Unable to quarrel with Old Master Mo, the elders left angry threats, “Fine! Let’s wait for Shiting to come and see what he has to say!”

While Mo Mansion was in chaos, Gu Li’s place was quiet and peaceful.

She woke up naturally, picked up her phone and saw that it was already nine in the morning.

She had planned to go shopping with Ye Yining, so she didn’t dare to procrastinate, and quickly got up to wash up.

As soon as she washed her face, someone rang the doorbell.

During this period, the “Mo Shiting branded” love breakfast would always arrive promptly at half-past nine. It was no exception today.

After finishing the luxurious breakfast, Gu Li sent a routine text message to Mo Shiting, saying “Thank you”.

In the past, Mo Shiting would always reply with “As long as you like it.”

But today, Gu Li was surprised to see his text: “I might not be able to buy breakfast for you in the future.”

Gu Li’s heart skipped a beat. For a moment, she felt a sense of loss.

She wanted to ask him why, but she deleted the words one by one after typing them.

Taking a deep breath, she was about to reply “got it”, but suddenly his message popped in, “I’m unemployed now, will you support me?”

Gu Li was taken aback and immediately replied: “Don’t joke around, how could you possibly lose your job?”

“I’m not joking. Divorce means unemployment.”

Gu Li:

“I can’t be bothered with you.”

Thinking he was just teasing her, Gu Li pouted, feeling a bit angry.

How dare he lie about something like this?

Did he think she was a three-year-old?

No, even the three-year-old Murong Yun wouldn’t be easily fooled.

Speaking of Murong Yun, Gu Li missed him a bit at this moment.

She wondered where Mo Shiting had taken him, that made the boy not want to come back home, without even a single phone call.

Such a heartless little guy.

On the day this happened, Gu Li mentioned it to Murong Qian. Surprisingly—

Murong Qian, Murong Yun’s biological mother, wasn’t worried at all about her son being lost. She even comforted Gu Li, “Oh, if he’s lost, he’s lost. When he wants to come back, he’ll come back on his own.”

Gu Li was flabbergasted, “That’s your son, aren’t you afraid that Mo Shiting would mistreat him?”
