Translator: 549690339

“What has Gu Li done to offend you?”

Old Master Mo simply put down his cup, bracing himself for a conflict.

Mrs. Song, hearing his defense of Gu Li in his words, looked even more displeased, “What do you mean by ‘offend me’? Are you implying that I’m intolerant?”

“Aren’t you?”

“You ”

Mrs. Song was on the verge of anger, blue veins throbbing in her forehead.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu worried she might faint from the anger and hurried over to massage her back.

No matter what, this old lady was their protective shield and was also the biggest helping hand for Miss Yunsi’s upcoming marriage to Young Master Mo. Of course, she didn’t want her to suffer any mishaps.

Mrs. Song took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down: “Gu Li sent Wan Yao to the police station. I am helpless. I can’t get Wan Yao out. Could you help?”

Mo Shaoyuan stared in disbelief, almost refusing to believe what he just heard, “You said, Gu Li landed Wan Yao in the police station? That’s impossible!”

“Do I need to lie to you?”

“Mo Shaoyuan, Gu Li has repeatedly shown disrespect to elders, violated the Mo family rules again and again. As the head of the family, are you just going to let her continue with her antics?”

The old lady was sharp and persuasive.

Mo Shaoyuan massaged his forehead, burdened with an impending headache, ready to make an excuse to end the call. At that moment, he heard her mournful and angry voice: “Now, she has even stepped into the entertainment circle, showing herself to the world. Aren’t you worried about the tragedy of 20 years ago recurring? Let me warn you, if anything happens to Shiting, I will not spare you even if it costs me my life!”

Mo Shaoyuan:

The train station.

Gu Li and Da Ha divided the work and searched inside and outside the station.

An hour passed, and they still didn’t find anyone.

“Boss, do you think she has already taken a train and left?”

Da Ha wiped his sweat, panting a little.

Gu Li pouted, pondered for a moment and said, “How about, let’s ask the broadcast station to announce her name?”

Da Ha: “Will it work? She deliberately hides from us, otherwise, she wouldn’t have left.”

“True.”

Gu Li sighed, “What should we do now? Once she leaves Capital City, it will be even harder to find her.”

“That’s why at crucial times, we need Mo Shiting!”

“Right!”

Da Ha’s words suddenly snapped Gu Li out of her thoughts.

At that moment, Gu Li realized that in her rush to find Ye Yining at the train station, she had completely forgotten about her appointment with Mo Shiting.

Oh no, he wouldn’t be angry, would he?

In a panic, Gu Li quickly opened her bag, took out her mobile phone and saw there were dozens of missed calls.

There were calls from unknown numbers, Murong Qian and also from Mo Shiting…

She immediately called Mo Shiting back.

However, what greeted her was only the monotonous mechanical tone of the call being disconnected; he had directly hung up on her.

“Is he really this petty?”

Gu Li pouted, undeterred, she tried to redial his number.

The result was the same – no answer.

Never mind, she should head to the Mo Group first.

An hour later, the taxi arrived at the Mo Group headquarters.

The car couldn’t drive into the compound, so Gu Li had to get down at the main entrance and walk in.

It was already 2 pm by then, the peak of the heat.

She didn’t carry an umbrella, but luckily, she was shielded from the harsh sun by the trees all the way.

When she got to the first floor of the building, Gu Li wiped her sweat and headed towards the elevator lobby.

At this time, a very familiar figure walked in from the side door not too far away.

Seeing Mo Shiting, Gu Li’s face brightened, just as she was about to call out to him, a young, beautiful, and unfamiliar woman suddenly appeared in her line of sight.

The two were walking and chatting, making their way to the elevator lobby in unison.

Gu Li froze.

So he didn’t answer her calls because he was with that woman?
