Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

As soon as Ye Yining left, Mother Tang said anxiously, “Oh my, Miss Tang. We finally tricked Miss Ye Yining upstairs, how could you let her escape?”

Tang Wan gave a faint smile, “Because I suddenly realized that this is not the best occasion for them to meet.”

Yes, luckily she remembered that her son Tang Yue had just been in a car accident, and his usual elegant appearance might have been diminished. If he was, by chance, rejected by Ye Yining, it would be a disaster. Hence, since she already had Ye Yining’s contact information, she could arrange a meeting later when the situation was appropriate. There was no need to rush.

After listening to Tang Wan’s explanation, Mother Tang nodded her head in realization, “Miss, you’ve certainly considered everything.”

“Well, Xiaoyue must be getting impatient. Let’s go in,” Tang Wan finished, pushing open the door to the hospital room.

However, she discovered that the “impatient Xiaoyue” she spoke of was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

……

Elsewhere, Ye Yining left the hospital and promptly called Gu Li.

Currently, Gu Li had just finished her brunch and was about to visit Mo Shiting at Xinghe Group after sending Lin Ranzhu home. Seeing Ye Yining calling her, she answered promptly.

“Pear, is Little Bamboo okay now?” Ye Yining started to inquire about Lin Ranzhu the moment she answered the call.

As Gu Li turned the steering wheel, she replied, “She went back to school to focus on her studies these past two years, and won’t work at the company anymore.”

“That’s good. After all, students should focus on their studies.”

“Yes, that’s why I didn’t persuade her.”

“By the way, Pear, do you know who I just saw?” Ye Yining asked excitedly, a rare emotion for her.

Gu Li’s curiosity was piqued, “Who? Murong Si? Or my sister Murong Qian?” After all, the only people they both knew, who could make her so excited, were those two. There was no one else.

Ye Yining gave her an ellipsis: “…”

Seeing Ye Yining’s silence, Gu Li could only say, “Alright, I know I guessed wrong. So, who did you see? Don’t tell me it was my dad?”

Ye Yining: “…”

“Maybe it’s your mom.”

Gu Li: “Speechless!”

“I mean it, she looks exactly like you, as if she was a mold identical to yours. Qianqian and I always thought you resemble your dad, but who would have thought that there’s a lady so noble, who looks even more like you. Speaking of which, If she were your mother, then you’ve truly inherited all their good points.”

As Ye Yining spoke, she became more excited, her tone was confident, as if the woman was indeed Gu Li’s biological mother.

On the other hand, Gu Li seemed calm. After all, her father had repeatedly emphasized that her mother was no longer alive. Although she still had doubts about this, she was no longer as insistent on finding her birth mother as she used to be.

“Of course, all I’ve just said were jokes. The noble lady seems to be less than forty, and probably doesn’t have a daughter your age.”

Ye Yining hastily added.

Gu Li smiled, “You seem to really like her?”

“Well, I find her quite appealing. It’s probably because she looks like you. We agreed to have tea together next time. Would you like to come along when we meet?”

Ye Yining suggested.

“Sure, but I’m going back to school. I probably won’t have time to come over these next few days.”

“That’s okay, she said she would stay here for at least a week.”

“Oh.”

After hanging up with Ye Yining, Gu Li couldn’t help but sigh: Does she have a common face? If not, why do so many people look like her?

While she was pondering this, a call from Mo Shiting came in.

Gu Li quickly answered, “Brother Ting, are you finished with your work? Have you eaten lunch yet?”

Mo Shiting: “I’ll eat after I meet with my two uncles.”

“Oh, then you go ahead. What would you like to eat? I can bring it over for you.”

Knowing he won’t be having a meal with his brothers, Mo Jianming, Gu Li playfully asked.

Mo Shiting’s thin lips curved up, a playful smile lighting up in his eyes, “You. Pack yourself up and come over.”

Gu Li’s sweet face blushed, “Stop it, be serious.”

Listening to the girl’s coquettish rebuke, a playful smile played on Mo Shiting’s lips, “Don’t you just like it when I’m not serious, hmm?”

“Who says? If you love pears so much, I’ll buy you ten kilos, hmph.”

“Good, I’ll be waiting, baby.”

“I’m hanging up.”

Gu Li yelled twice, then hung up the phone under his cheerful laughter.

Just as Lu Yang knocked on the door and entered, he caught Mo Shiting’s flirtatious smile. Without guessing, he knew Mo Shiting must have been talking to Gu Li.
