Chapter 529: 361: Suddenly Confessed to_1

The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it seriously. Unexpectedly, Tang Yue had already taken a DNA test for Gu Li and Tang Wan, and the results shockingly showed that they were not mother and daughter. This made Mo Shiting frown.

How could they not be mother and daughter?

She evidently is Tang Tang…

Where exactly did things go wrong?

“Shiting? Are you listening?”

When Mo Shiting didn’t respond, Tang Yue couldn’t help but call out to him.

Mo Shiting regained his composure, “When did you test Gu Li and Chairman Tang’s DNA?”

“A while ago.”

Tang Yue answered truthfully, “I had this idea the first time I saw Gu Li. Later, Shu Rong got a hair sample from Pear and tested the DNA. The result proved that she is not Tang Tang.”

Undeniably, Tang Yue sounded a bit regretful at this point. After all, Little Pear looked too much like his sister.

In contrast, the girl who recently acknowledged them looked only vaguely similar.

“Shiting, no matter how you look at it, I feel guilty about not being able to go and cheer on Pear tonight. I don’t know if you guys are free tomorrow, but I would like to invite you to dinner.”

Tang Yue spoke sincerely.

Mo Shiting pursed his lips, “Alright, I’ll bring her.”

“Then I won’t interrupt your match viewing anymore. Cheer on Pear for me.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Mo Shiting stood with one hand in his pocket, gazing at the bustling traffic outside the stadium, his deep eyes veiling a hint of darkness.

The stadium was already quite noisy, and judging by the time, the match was about to start.

However, knowing that Gu Li would advance directly, Mo Shiting wasn’t in a hurry to enter.

He stood there for a while before calling Lu Yang.

“Young Master, you’re looking for me?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Yang was still busy in the lab of the M Country Branch. Seeing Mo Shiting’s call, he was slightly surprised. The Young Master should be watching the Young Madam’s match. Why was he still free to make a call? Had something happened?

Mo Shiting spoke calmly, “There’s a matter that requires your attention.”

Hearing the Young Master’s instructions, Lu Yang immediately perked up. “Yes.”

…

In the stadium.

The match had been going on for quite some time. With the final top two battle approaching, Mo Shiting still hadn’t returned.

During the halftime break, Murong Qian finally couldn’t hold back her curiosity and tugged at Lu Cong’s arm, asking, “Hey, where the hell did your buddy go? It’s almost Little Pear’s turn, why isn’t he back yet?”

Even Ye Yining had flown all the way from Hua Country to cheer on Little Pear. If Mo Shiting wasn’t present during such an important moment, it would be unacceptable.

Lu Cong glanced subconsciously at the empty seat next to him and felt a twinge of worry in his heart.

Could there be a problem?

Just as he was about to call Mo Shiting, he saw a tall figure striding over, relieving him of his worries.

“You kiddo. I thought you were going to miss the match.”

Once Mo Shiting took his seat, Lu Cong laughed and playfully punched him.

Mo Shiting hooked his lips into a slight smile without saying a word.

Lu Cong asked with concern, “Nothing happened, right?”

Just as he finished speaking, Murong Qian’s head poked over, evidently eager to hear why Mo Shiting would miss the match to attend to something urgent.

Unfortunately, Mo Shiting only vaguely mentioned, “A minor problem. It’s been resolved.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Without getting an answer, Lu Cong didn’t probe further.

Murong Qian then said, “It’s good you made it in time. It would have been a pity if you had missed Pear’s shining moment.”

“Hm.”

Mo Shiting chuckled lightly, his gaze fixed on the center of the stage. Just at the moment, contestants who had previously returned backstage for a rest started returning one by one, and his Little Pear reentered his line of sight.

Perhaps due to some kind of heartfelt connection, Gu Li also looked in Mo Shiting’s direction.

Seeing that he had finally returned, a weight lifted off her mind, and she beamed at Mo Shiting.

“Go, honey!”

Mo Shiting mouthed these words silently, giving her a thumbs up.

Having understood his message, Gu Li responded in sign language, “I love you, honey!”

“Heh.”

Mo Shiting was amused, his stunningly handsome face catching Gu Li’s eye. Even the stage lights seemed to lose their shine in comparison.

As the cheerful music started, the elegant host took center stage.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the finals of the World University Supersmart Brain competition. As everyone can see, tonight’s competition is really intense. Congratulations to contestant No. 18, Qiao Se, for standing out amongst numerous competitors and successfully advancing to the final championship round. Now, let’s give our two excellent contestants a warm round of applause. They are contestant No. 7, Gu Li, and contestant No. 18, Qiao Se.”

As soon as the host finished speaking in an excited tone, a thunderous applause erupted in the audience.

“Go, Little Pear!”

“Go Pear!”

Murong Qian and Ye Yining screamed like delirious fans, waving Gu Li’s placard repeatedly.

The infectious atmosphere also influenced Lu Cong, who found himself unconsciously waving the placard as well.

Seeing this, Mo Shiting’s eyes softened into beautiful crescent shapes.

At this moment, Gu Li and Qiao Se stepped into the center of the stage amidst the applause.

They each stood on either side of the host.

The host handed the microphone to Qiao Se, asking, “Before the ultimate PK begins, do you have anything to say to your opponent?”

Qiao Se took the microphone and glanced at Gu Li, his words catching everybody off-guard, “The beautiful Miss Gu Li, I am very taken with your beauty and talent. After the competition ends, would you be my girlfriend?”

Roar——

The crowd instantly exploded.

Nobody had expected that at such a tense moment, Qiao Se would actually confess his feelings to his opponent.

My God, is he serious?

This was just too thrilling!

People are always hungry for drama. Whether it was the contestants on stage or the audience below, no one remained calm.

Everyone was looking forward to Gu Li’s answer.

Of course, there were also some who rejoiced in schadenfreude, who loved a good show. For example, Murong Qian, who leaned across Lu Cong and said to Mo Shiting, “Haha, the charm of my Pear is irresistible. Even at a competition, she still attracts admirers. Mo Shiting, you have quite a few rivals, don’t let your guard down.”

Mo Shiting glared, warning Lu Cong, “Control your woman.”

Lu Cong shrugged helplessly, “Sorry, can’t help you. Family hierarchy is quite clear.”

Mo Shiting: “…”

So you’re proud that you’re afraid of your wife?

As though reading his mind, Lu Cong grinned, “Aren’t you also henpecked?”

Mo Shiting scoffed, “Afraid of my wife? Nonsense!”

This little girl, he hadn’t kept an eye on her for a few days and she dared to flutter around like a flirtatious butterfly. Wait and see how he disciplines her later!

Unaware of a certain jealous man simmering with anger, Gu Li was also left speechless with surprise by Qiao Se’s unexpected confession.

What on earth was happening?

As far as she remembered, she hadn’t even spoken to this Qiao Se. How had he taken a liking to her?
