These people, all at least in their forties or fifties, must be Mo Shiting’s elders, right?
But they all looked so ferocious and menacing. This wasn’t good.
Gu Li’s eyes flickered, hearing Mo Shiting declare coldly, “Allow me to introduce, my wife, Gu Li.”
Boom —
The entire room was stunned.
Everyone exchanged looks, utterly surprised. At this crucial moment, they didn’t expect Mo Shiting to pull such a move.
He got married?
How is that possible!!!
Not only the members of the Mo Family, but even Gu Li herself was taken out of the loop.contemporary romance
However, despite her confusion, she didn’t dare to offend Mo Shiting and dutifully played along, “Good to meet you all, uncles. This is our first meeting, so please guide me.”
“…”
No one paid attention to her. They all cast their incredulous glances at Mo Shiting.
“Shiting, this isn’t like you. We all know you are single. Why do you need to hire an actress to put on this act? And even if you wanted to play pretend why not find a more reliable target? This girl here, she doesn’t even look of age yet.”
“Exactly, don’t take us for fools.”
“Marriage is no joke! Stop messing around!”
…
Listening to their relentless attack on Mo Shiting, Gu Li finally understood. It seemed in some roundabout way, she managed to serve Mo Shiting.
It seemed her life was spared for now.
She took small steps towards Mo Shiting’s side, blinking her eyes in feigned confusion, “Husband, what are they talking about? Could it be that the red booklet we got from the civil affairs office is just a prop?”
As she spoke, she opened her purse and took out the little red booklet.
A quick-acting member of the Mo Family immediately snatched the booklet away.
Seeing the seal, and the names and photos of the two of them, there was a brief silence.
“What’s going on?”
Mo Jianming asked with a stern face.
He didn’t anticipate this turn of events. He never expected that Mo Shiting would go so far as to stage a fake marriage.
Yes, it had to be fake.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
“Shiting, when did you and Miss Gu meet? How did it turn into marriage all of a sudden?”
“Indeed, indeed, it’s too sudden.”
Everyone was filled with confusion.
“No comment!”
Mo Shiting calmly replied. Without waiting for them to react, he directly asked them to leave, “It’s getting late, please go home.”
“…”
Seeing the standoff, and realizing they were not going to get anything out of it, the Mo Family grudgingly left.
Before leaving, Mo Jianyu took a lingering look at Gu Li, a strange glimmer flashed within his eyes, hidden behind his glasses.
Once everyone left, only Mo Shiting and Gu Li remained in the spacious room.
The atmosphere inexplicably grew eerie.
Quietly, Gu Li moved a few steps back to put some distance between herself and Mo Shiting while sizing him up.
Mo Shiting was seated on the sofa, his posture relaxed, however, an intense aura surrounded him, sending a chill down her spine.
Her glittering eyes turned, and Gu Li softly tried to probe, “Young Master Mo, perhaps we could have a proper conversation, hm?”
Mo Shiting looked up, his gaze icy cold, “There is no one in this world who has outsmarted me and gotten away with it.”
She hissed …
Taken aback, Gu Li inevitably retreated another two steps.
Mo Shiting noted her small movement, and raised an eyebrow.
At that moment, Gu Li said, “Just now, so many people knew about our marriage. If later on, they can’t find me, don’t you think they would get suspicious?”
“…”
Seeing his silent response, as if considering her words, the girl became bolder and moved closer to him, “I’ve helped you after all, why don’t we call it even?”
Mo Shiting remained aloof, ignoring her.
“Don’t be so petty. Keeping me alive is better than killing me.”
Gu Li got closer, completely unaware that she had unknowingly reached his front.
The faint sweet scent from the girl wafted towards him, causing a ripple in Mo Shiting’s heart. He impatiently pushed her away, “Go stand there.”
Gu Li: “…”
What the hell!
Isn’t she a breath-taking beauty? How was it that in front of him, she didn’t seem to have any charm at all?
Could it be that he’s not interested in women?
No wonder Grandfather Mo was always worried about his lifelong affairs.
It was indeed troubling.
Mo Shiting didn’t bother with Gu Li’s little thoughts.
He quickly stood up, “We’ll discuss the divorce later. For now, you need to help me pretend to be a married couple in public.”
“What if I don’t?”
