Chapter 424: 320 Hope is Her Master_3

Gu Li complained with a bitter face.

Only then did Mo Shiting give up.

He jokingly ruffled her hair and said, “You usually eat no less than you do now.”

Gu Li had her mouth full and couldn’t talk. She could only glare at him, of course, while taking the opportunity to kick him under the table.

Watching the two of them flirt as if no one else was there, Old Master Mo silently bowed his head and ate his meal. He had never experienced such a drawn-out mealtime.

It seemed that in the future, he would only invite Little Pear to come home for dinner.

As for that rascal Mo Shiting, hmph, he could get lost. Better yet, never return, so that he won’t turn into a light bulb.

Not long after dinner, it was time to enjoy the moonlight.

Previous Mid-Autumn Festivals at the Mo’s house were very quiet.

However, this year was much more lively because of Gu Li.

The servants had set up several tables on the open grassy yard, laden with various fruits.

Mo Shiting and his wife sat at one table with Old Master Mo, while the servants sat at separate tables. The master and the servants enjoyed the moon together, creating a particularly warm atmosphere.

Not even 10 o’clock, Old Master Mo felt drowsy and left early.

Subsequently, the servants also made their excuses and retired.

Before long, only Mo Shiting and Gu Li were left in the yard.

“Did they agree to leave together? Why did they all leave?”

Seeing the lively scene suddenly disappear, Gu Li was taken aback.

Mo Shiting smiled, “Perhaps it’s because the moon is so big and bright tonight.”

“What does that mean?”

Gu Li was speechless.

Mo Shiting moved his handsome face closer, his voice was a bit wicked, “Do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to?”

“I really don’t understand.”

Gu Li pushed him away, “Enough, let’s get back to business. Do you really intend to take charge of the Mo family again?”

“What else?”

Mo Shiting replied.

From the day he left, he knew such a day would come, but he didn’t expect it to come so soon.

“It seems these guys are even weaker than I thought.”

“It’s just that you’re too strong.”

Gu Li said sincerely.

Mo Shiting raised his eyebrows, his tone suggestive, “I’m too strong? It seems you’re quite pleased.”

“You…”

Not expecting him to bring it up like that, Gu Li glared at him, “Young Master Mo, your image has totally collapsed.”

“Really? I didn’t notice.”

“You’re too close to the situation to see it clearly!”

“Alright, whatever my wife says is right.”

Gu Li:”…”

Ever since they started dating, she found that he was getting better and better at this.

He would casually sweet-talk her, where did he learn all those sweet nothings?

The autumn breeze blew gently, the weather was cool, and the two cuddled together, enjoying their calm yet romantic happiness.

Gu Li suddenly remembered that Song Yunque had accepted the old lady’s invitation for her, and she couldn’t help asking Mo Shiting, “Are you free tomorrow?”

“I have meetings in the morning and afternoon. Why?”

Gu Li honestly told him about the old lady’s invitation.

“Should I go?”

She decided to ask his opinion.

Without hesitation, Mo Shiting replied, “You don’t need to go.”

“But… after all, she’s your grandmother.”

Gu Li thought it would be improper not to accept the invitation.

Mo Shiting furrowed his eyebrows, after a moment he said, “Alright, I’ll go with you.”

“But don’t you have meetings?”

“A visit won’t take long.”

“Oh, okay then.”

Since he’ll be accompanying her, she had nothing to worry about.

“It’s getting late, let’s go back to rest.”

After finishing his sentence, Mo Shiting stood up.

He extended his hand towards her.

Gu Li naturally reached out, taking his hand.

The two of them, hand in hand, strolling under the moonlight, and the atmosphere gradually filled with sweetness.

When they returned to another garden and passed the study on the second floor, Mo Shiting stopped, “Remember last time, you said you wanted to see a photo of my father, want to see it now?”

“Yes!”

Gu Li immediately nodded.

Oh my, she almost forget about it.

Thank goodness Brother Ting remembered.

“Then come in.”

Mo Shiting opened the door.

It wasn’t her first time in this study, so Gu Li was quite familiar with it.

Once inside, Mo Shiting went to get the photo, while she was touching the architectural models here and there, couldn’t put them down.

In a little while, Mo Shiting pulled out the photo from the drawer and called Gu Li over, “Come here.”

“Oh.”

Gu Li trotted over.

“There’s only one, but it’s fairly clear.”

Mo Shiting looked at the photo for a few moments, then handed it to Gu Li.

Gu Li held the old photo tightly in her hand, closed her eyes uncontrollably, and was somewhat afraid to look at it.

She was filled with anticipation, hoping this was her master.

But what if it wasn’t?

“What’s wrong with you?”

Seeing her eyes tightly shut and her eyelashes flickering a few times, a hint of concern flashed in Mo Shiting’s eyes..
