Hmph!

Isn’t he supposed to be giving her the silent treatment?

Why on earth did he suddenly remember to call her?

She won’t answer!

Just seeing him annoys her.

When Miss Gu Li’s temper flared up, she simply hung up the phone.

Mo Shiting hadn’t expected that she would dare to hang up his call. His handsome face was immediately coated with frost, chillingly cold.

Won’t answer, huh?

Fine, he’ll keep calling until she answers!

Consequently, he redials her number.

Seeing his call again, Gu Li directly rejects it.

Mo Shiting is determined to force her hand, so he calls back.

Once, twice, thrice…

Like little children playing a game, they kept repeating the process of calling and hanging up. After an unknown number of tries, Gu Li finally presses the answer button.

“What do you want?”

She sounds pretty pissed, the anger in her voice clear as day.

Mo Shiting’s tone is no better, “Come to the company.”

“No!”

She resolutely refuses.

“You must come!”

Mo Shiting’s tone allows no denying.

Puffing her cheeks, Gu Li says, “I refuse!”

“You—”

Mo Shiting, his temples throbbing from her obstinance, threatens her, “In half an hour, I want to see you! Or else–”

“Or else what? Stay away from me forever?”

Gu Li helps him finish his sentence, sounding quite pissed off.

Mo Shiting is caught off guard.

He d been angry just then and might have said exactly that.

But it was a good thing he didn’t. Once this girl gets all stubborn, there’s no way to win.??????????????????????????????? 7

“Cough cough…”

Clearing his throat to change the subject, he says, “There’s something really important that I need to tell you, you must come!”

“What is it? You can just tell me over the phone.”

Gu Li isn’t backing down.

Mo Shiting takes a deep breath and decides, ‘No. I want to tell you face to face’ You must come!’

With that, he hangs up the phone before Gu Li could reply.

Gu Li:”???”

“Aaaaah–”

Unable to contain her frustration, Gu Li yells in her car, “That damn Mo Shiting, thinking that if he does this, I’ll go see him? In his dreams!”

After ending the call, Mo Shiting looks up and unexpectedly meets Assistant Lu’s gossipy gaze.

His handsome face darkens and he sternly scolds, “Have you nothing else to do? What are you standing around here for?”

“Young Master, I have some important matters to report,”

Lu Yang bows slightly, responding seriously.

“Speak!”

“President Tang Yue of the Tang Group personally called. He said that he had been out for awhile due to a car accident, so he appointed General Manager Qin Shurong to negotiate. He expresses his regret for failing to reach an agreement between our two companies, and hopes to invite you to M Country to make a final decision. I think you should consider it.”

After all, the Tang Group is the richest entity in M Country. Although they might not be as strong as the Mo Family, they are still among the top ten richest groups in the world. Furthermore, their president Tang Yue is a highly influential and capable individual. Lu Yang wouldn’t want to offend them without good reason.

“Alright, I got it.”

Mo Shiting kneads his forehead, not agreeing or disagreeing.

After all, his mind is completely on Gu Li right now, all the work-related stuff has been thrown far from his thoughts by now.

Seeing his bad mood, Lu Yang adjusts his glasses and tactfully says, “Young

Master, shall I come to ask for your decision tomorrow?”

“Hmm.”

Mo Shiting nods his head, signaling him to leave.

Lu Yang takes a deep look at him before heading out.

I wonder if the Young Madam will come to the company?

Perhaps, he could concoct a scheme to lure the Young Madam here?

After all, as soon as the Young Madam arrives, the Young Master’s mood will undoubtedly improve.

Only when the Young Master is in a good mood, they, the subordinates, could have a better life.

With this in mind, as soon as Lu Yang returned to his office, he quietly called Gu Li on the phone.

Well, it’s time to test his acting skills.

Gu Li indeed had no plans to seek out Mo Shiting.

She had been driving towards the riverbank, almost reaching the creative park, when she got a call from Lu Yang.

“Young Madam -”

Lu Yang’s voice sounded very anxious.

Gu Li frowned, sounding concerned, “Assistant Lu, what’s wrong?”

“Young Madam, please save our Young Master.”

“He’s got a high fever, he won’t take his medicine, he won’t go to the hospital, he’s just languishingin his office.”

To be honest, Lu Yang’s performance was very exaggerated and his acting skills were not convincing.

Unfortunately, the Gu Li on the other end of the line did not realize this at all. Hearing that she needed to save Mo Shiting, she was stunned, “What? He has a high fever?”

Didn’t he just have a fight with her? And he looked fine. He didn’t seem like someone with a high fever at all?

Yes, just measured him with a thermometer and it’s 40 degrees. Young Madam, can you come over and bring some fever-reducing medicine on your way? Young Master Lu has gone to M Country, and the Young Master won’ t allow other doctors to examine him.”

Lu Yang’s performance was becoming more and more convincing, gradually gaining momentum.

Gu Li believed him, sighed helplessly, “Alright then, I’ll go now. You might want to get some ice to cool him down.”

“Alright.”

With his plot successful, Lu Yang nearly broke into a chuckle.

After hanging up the phone, fearing that Gu Li would call Mo Shiting, he cunningly blocked the signal in Mo Shiting’s office.

Young Master, for your sake, I have put in a lot of effort, please don’t punish me when you learn the truth!

On the other end, Gu Li went straight to call Mo Shiting.

She wanted to scold him before telling him that she was going to the Mo Group

out of a humanitarian concern, and that he shouldn’t be too smug.

But no one answered her call.

What?

Was his fever truly so severe?

Has he become unconscious?

The more Gu Li thought about it, the more worried she became, and she subconsciously increased her driving speed.

After stopping by at a pharmacy and buying some cold and fever medicine, about twenty minutes later, she arrived at the Mo Group campus.

After getting out of the car, she carried the bag of medicine and hurried into the building.

Mo Shiting had already registered her fingerprint and iris information in the access control and elevator identification system, so she smoothly took the exclusive elevator to the top floor.

In the CEO’s office.

Mo Shiting sat in the large chair, tapping lightly on the desk with his mobile phone.

A minute flew by swiftly, she hadn’t shown up an hour since he hung up on Gu

Li. Presumably she wouldn’ t come looking for him.

She was truly stubborn!

It was his fault for spoiling her!

Mo Shiting pursed his lips, albeit feeling gloomy, he couldn’t help curling his

lips as he thought of Gu Li’s sweet, happy smile.

Should he call her again?

Mo Shiting hesitated for a moment, then dialed her number again.

He kept failing to get through to her?

What was going on?

Mo Shiting narrowed his eyes and quickly checked on his computer.

Ah, Lu Yang!

He stood up, ready to confront Lu Yang personally. Just as he was about to step out, the office door was flung open from outside. His eyes caught a glance of the girl panting heavily.

She came?

Mo Shiting’s heart jolted heavily, and in an instant, every cell in his body was filled with excitement.

He strode quickly towards her.

After catching her breath, Gu Li lifted her eyes to look at him, but a tall figure suddenly loomed over her.??????? °

She blinked, still processing, when she was suddenly pressed against the wall by him and kissed.
