Chapter 525: 357 Gu Yuan Dislikes _1

“Uncle.”

Mo Shiting called out to Gu Yuan and from the other side of the phone came Gu Yuan’s cold voice, “I’m in M Country, I heard you and Gu Li are also here?”

“Yes, we just arrived at noon.”

Mo Shiting answered truthfully, hiding the surprise in his eyes.

He wasn’t aware that Gu Yuan was also here.

However, there hadn’t been any diplomatic interactions between A Nation and M Country recently, so Gu Yuan must’ve come for personal matters, right?

Could it be for Tang Tang?

Mo Shiting slightly pursed his lips, only to hear Gu Yuan ask: “Is she participating in the World University Brain Competition?”

“Yes.”

“Let’s have dinner together tonight, I’ll have Gu Zuo pick you guys up.”

“There’s no need to trouble him, just give us the address and we can get there ourselves.”

“Alright! Then it’s 8pm at No. 22 Binhe Road Private Club.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Mo Shiting finished speaking, Gu Yuan had already hung up.

He looked at his watch, five in the afternoon, three hours until eight, plenty of time.

He wondered what that little girl was doing right now?

Mo Shiting simply dialed Gu Li’s number.

The phone rang for quite a while before finally being picked up.

“Hey, Brother Ting, why do you have time to call me? Have you finished your work?”

Gu Li put her phone next to the open-plan kitchen island, while peeling vegetables and chatting to Mo Shiting.

She was going to have a hot pot dinner tonight, so she was busy preparing the ingredients. As for Lu Cong and Murong Qian, they had gone back to the supermarket to stock up on more seasonings and hot pot side dishes.

“I’ve finished.”

Hearing the girl’s chirpy voice, Mo Shiting couldn’t help but smile, his mood instantly lifted.

“Oh, so you’re coming back for dinner? We’re having hot pot tonight.”

Gu Li asked with a smile, her words full of anticipation for the hot pot.

Mo Shiting didn’t have the heart to disappoint her, “Your father is here, he wants to meet us. We can’t have your favorite hot pot tonight.”

“Wow! How come he’s here?”

Gu Li raised her eyebrows in surprise, “It’s a pity he hates hot pot, otherwise we could have it together.”

“Right. I’m coming to pick you up now. Get ready.”

“Alright.”

Although they couldn’t have hot pot, it was still a good deal to see her own father.

…

Forty minutes later, Mo Shiting returned to the villa.

Having just parked the car, he saw Lu Cong and Murong Qian carrying several shopping bags from the supermarket, talking and laughing as they walked over.

Mo Shiting greeted them.

Seeing him, Lu Cong smiled and said, “How come you’re back? We thought you wouldn’t be back tonight.”

Mo Shiting replied indifferently, “I’m going to pick up Gu Li to see her father.”

Murong Qian was somewhat surprised on hearing this, “My uncle is here? He hasn’t been to M Country in years.”

Lu Cong curiously asked, “Really? How do you know that so clearly?”

Murong Qian gave him a look, “I’ve been in M Country for so many years, how can I not know? My uncle doesn’t like M Country, he even discouraged me from studying here. I secretly applied and informed him later.”

“Why doesn’t he like M Country?”

Lu Cong asked again.

Murong Qian: “How would I know? Why do you have so many questions?”

Lu Cong: “…”

“You guys continue chatting, I’m going to find Tang Tang.”

Mo Shiting didn’t wait for them, briskly picking up his pace, leaving the flirting couple behind him.

Watching his tall and straight figure, Murong Qian couldn’t help but admire, “Mo Shiting is really handsome, no wonder our Gu Li has been infatuated with him for so many years.”

Lu Cong narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing through them, “Are you also falling for him?”

“What? Of course not! He’s the man Gu Li likes, no matter how much I admire him, I wouldn’t have any inappropriate thoughts about him.”
