Be a Good Boy and Marry Me Chapter 420: 319 - I Find You a Bit Annoying Here2

The two of them lingered in the hotel for most of the day. By the ti they got back to the Mo Mansion, it was already past five in the afternoon.

Old Master Mo was practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard. Seeing them walk in hand in hand, he gracefully retracted his movent and took a deep breath. “Grandpa ”

“Grandpa, we’re back.”

The couple simultaneously greeted him.

Old Master Mo glared at Mo Shiting, then turned to Gu Li with a smile. The warmth in his attitude towards Gu Li was a stark contrast to his harshness towards Mo Shiting. “Little Pear, you’re finally here. Let’s go inside the house and play chess.”

“Absolutely, let’s go.”

Gu Li didn’t decline. She instantly “abandoned” Mo Shiting, took Old Master Mo’s arm, and helped him walk into the main house.

Seeing this, Mo Shiting had no choice but to follow behind them.

Once inside the house, Old Master Mo ordered Uncle Guan to fetch an antique chess set from the study.

The older man and the young girl sat across each other while Mo Shiting stood behind Gu Li, watching her play chess.

Gu Li was not very good at chess, and lost to Old Master Mo every ti.

But Old Master Mo wasn’t any better, soGu Li was the only one he could feel superior to.

At the sight of both of them playing poorly, Mo Shiting couldn’t stand it anymore and moved a piece on behalf of Gu Li.

This move effectively blocked Old Master Mo’s retreat.

He was not pleased. “You cheeky brat,” he fud, “don’t you know that a true gentleman never comnts when observing a chess ga?”

Mo Shiting smirked, even as he brazenly refuted him, “Grandpa, I didn’t say anything.” He had simply made a move.

“You…”

Old Master Mo was left speechless, his frustration manifesting in a slap to the table. “Why are you so free today? Neglecting a business worth billions just to watch us play chess?”

Mo Shiting:

Gu Li burst into laughter, “Grandpa, let’s ignore him and play our ga. I’ll take back our moves and start again sowhere else.”

She quickly undid Mo Shiting’s move.

Old Master Mo sniffed, “Little Pear is considerate. Unlike that cheeky brat who only knows how to irritate his grandpa.”

“Grandpa, Brother Ting was just helping because I’m so bad at chess. If it weren’t for him, I would have lost horribly. Please don’t bla him. If you must bla soone, bla my poor skills.”

“You’re always covering for him!”

After blaming Gu Li, Old Master Mo glared at Mo Shitingagain, “I think you’re a nuisance here. You should go and work.”

Mo Shiting:

“Yeah, Brother Ting, you should go do your things. You don’t need to keep company here.”

Gu Li felt bad for Mo Shiting and suggested him to leave.

Feeling unwanted by both, Mo Shiting awkwardly scratched his nose.

Just then, Lu Yang called to report an urgent eting that needed to be held imdiately.

Mo Shiting ended the call and said to Gu Li, “I need to attend a eting at the Other Garden. I’ll be back soon.”

Gu Li nodded eagerly, “Alright, go ahead with your work.”

“Off you go.”

Old Master Mo impatiently ushered him out.

Mo Shiting shookhis head, put his hand in his pocket, and strode off.

Once he left, the spacious main house was left with only the old man and the young girl locked in a chess battle.

The outco was inevitable; Old Master Mo was sure to win.

After losing several gas, Gu Li declared, “I can’t do this anymore. It’s so boring to lose every ti.”

“Haha…”

Old Master Mo chuckled and stroked his white beard, “It seems like you’re eager to join that brat. Aren’t you?”

“Not at all!”

Gu Li’s face blushed slightly, “Grandpa, do you think I’m that kind of person? I’m just tired of losing every ga.”

“Alright, then. We won’t play chess. Would you like to chat with grandpa instead?”

“Sure.”

Talking was far more interesting than playing chess.

Plus, she had always wanted to ask Old Master Mo about Brother Ting’s father. Now, she finally had the chance.

“Grandpa, I heard that Brother Ting’s father is a very important and impressive figure. Can you tell about him?”

Gu Li brought up her question.

Old Master Mo packed up the chess pieces, his eyes deepening into a thoughtful state as if he was sunk in mories.

Gu Li patiently waited for him to speak. However, as the minutes ticked away, he still remained silent.

Gu Li started to feel apprehensive. Had she said sothing wrong?

“Grandpa?”
