Chapter 862: 215: Can you get first place like this?!_3 Chapter 862: 215: Can you get first place like this?!_3 “I just returned this afternoon,” Mo Qishen said.
Mo Baichuan glanced at Mo Qishen, then continued, “Has Uncle Six been very busy outside lately?”
Asking a universally acknowledged useless man if he has been busy is practically the sa as mockery.
In fact, Mo Baichuan couldn’t be bothered to mock this worthless Uncle Six.
He wanted to see how Ni Yang would react.
How could Ni Yang not be tired after acting with Mo Qishen for so long?
Mo Qishen’s thin lips curled slightly, his hands still peeling a pogranate, “So-so.”
“What has Uncle Six been busy with outside?” Mo Baichuan promptly asked.
“Trade secrets.”
Upon hearing this, the mockery in Mo Baichuan’s eyes deepened.
Trade secrets?
Such words might pass if they ca from soone else’s mouth, but coming from Mo Qishen, they were truly bizarre.
No wonder Mo Qishen’s reputation outside was so poor.
“Since it’s a trade secret, then I won’t pry.” As he spoke, Mo Baichuan’s gaze swept past Ni Yang.
Ni Yang was just like before, her attention entirely on the plate of gleaming, jade-white lychees as if she hadn’t spared him a glance from start to finish.
Had she really not looked at him?
Mo Baichuan narrowed his eyes, then turned to look at Grandfather Mo and Grandmother Mo before continuing, “Grandpa, Grandma, I plan to get engaged to Jingrong soon.”
As Grandfather Mo was drinking tea, he sprayed out all the tea in his mouth upon hearing this, “What, what did you say?”
Grandmother Mo was also startled, “Baichuan, marriage is no trivial matter! You can’t just do whatever cos to your mind.”
Mo Baichuan was also at the age suitable for marriage and having children. Under normal circumstances, hearing such news, the two elders would certainly be very happy.
But now, they couldn’t be less happy.
After all, Mo Baichuan’s intended fiancée was Zhao Jingrong.
The outside world knew that Zhao Jingrong was once Mo Qishen’s fiancée. If Mo Baichuan really got engaged to Zhao Jingrong, what would the outside world think of the Mo Family?
Mo Baichuan then said, “Jingrong and I have been together for such a long ti, I know she is a very good girl, so I want to settle the matter sooner rather than later.”
Claiming the engagent was a spur-of-the-mont decision.
He wanted to provoke Ni Yang.
Upon hearing he was to get engaged to Zhao Jingrong, Ni Yang definitely couldn’t hold back.
Grandfather Mo wiped his mouth with a tissue, “Baichuan, calm down, Zhao Jingrong is not a good match.”
Mo Baichuan looked up at Grandfather Mo, “Grandpa, Jingrong is my girlfriend, I know better than you whether she is a good match or not.”
In the ti Mo Baichuan had spent with Zhao Jingrong, she was gentle, considerate, kind—a very qualified girlfriend.
Grandfather Mo sighed.
Grandmother Mo hesitated, then spoke, “Baichuan, Zhao Jingrong, she… she used to…”
“Are you trying to say that Jingrong was once Uncle Six’s fiancée?” Mo Baichuan said.
“Yes,” Grandmother Mo nodded, “You know that’s good. All these circumstances, I need not say more, you should be very clear, right?”
Grandmother Mo truly looked down upon Zhao Jingrong.
Mo Baichuan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he continued, “The reason Jingrong broke off the engagent with Uncle Six is that Uncle Six had no ability to keep her! Moreover, she and Uncle Six were initially betrothed as children, and it’s been so many years since such practices were abolished. Child engagents are already null and void, and Jingrong has the right to choose her happiness. You and Grandpa can’t dismiss her as a good girl just because she broke off the engagent with Uncle Six!”
Grandmother Mo wanted to say sothing more, but Grandfather Mo raised his hand, “Alright, alright, you want to get engaged to her, right? Then get engaged! We won’t interfere with this matter, but let say sothing beforehand.”
“Please speak,” Mo Baichuan said.
Grandfather Mo continued, “Since you have decided to get married, don’t think about getting divorced later. Our Mo Family can’t afford to lose face like that!”
“You can count on ,” Mo Baichuan said, full of conviction.
Grandfather Mo’s expression was a bit gloomy, but in front of Ni Yang, who had been Mo Qishen’s fiancée, it wasn’t good to blast her openly.
What if it scared the future daughter-in-law?
Ni Yang didn’t want to get involved in Mo Baichuan’s business and, moreover, Mo Baichuan was too conceited. If she stayed any longer, he would likely get the wrong idea again, so she proposed to leave.
Besides, she wasn’t suited for staying in such a situation.
“I’ll take you,” Mo Qishen said, packing the peeled pogranate into a bag.
Leaving?
Mo Baichuan looked up at Ni Yang.
Was Ni Yang feeling jealous, so she decided to leave?
