Chapter 1191 - Epilogue: I’m Interested In Him!
Trial Marriage Husband: Need to Work Hard
Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi
For quite some time, Qian Lanâs workmate had been attempting to organize a blind date for her. The target of this date was a high school physics teacher from the building next door; a young man in his early twenties that went by the name of â Mo Zichen.
His height was more perfect than a modelâs and his appearance was more attractive than a celebrityâs. But, rumors claimed that this young man came from a very poor family background.
If that wasnât the case, then why did he always dress in the same black suit and same boring black-framed glasses?
Qian Lan had run into this man in the past; his face was indeed attractive, but his actions werenât very interesting.
However, her friends insisted on pairing them together. So, she gave them some face and agreed to meet with him. To be honest, others did not have a good impression of the young man, but Qian Lan was surprisingly pleased by him.
After all, he was gentle, good looking and he appeared quite frugal, even though he didnât talk much. Qian Lan was surprised that, in this day and age, there was still a man that knew how to manage his money.
âMiss Qian, you are the first woman to sit opposite me for more than 5 minutes in silence without storming off in anger,â Mo Zichen laughed. His face was so exquisite that it was practically perfect.
âYouâre also the first frugal man Iâve met, whoâs still in his early twenties,â Qian Lan replied with a giggle.
âHello, Iâm Mo Zichen, a high school physics teacher.â
âIâm Qian Lan, a primary school english teacher.â
The two quickly fell silent again, but it wasnât an awkward silence. After all, Qian Lan was well known for being a bit strange herself. She didnât like men that looked too showy and especially disliked men that bragged.
Not only was Mo Zichen not sleazy at all, he even felt a bit cold and aloof as though he was purposely making people forget his existence.
Qian Lan liked his low profile personality.
âWill we get the chance to meet again?â Qian Lan asked straightforwardly.
âSure, when I have no class, Iâm usually quite free.â
The first meeting between the two was so plain and simple that it made others sleepy just by looking at it. Qian Lanâs friend had been monitoring the date from a hidden spot, so, as soon as Mo Zichen left, she yawned and approached Qian Lan, âThat guy was much too boring. Forget about it, weâll introduce you to someone else. Itâs just a shame that he was so good looking.â
âNo, Iâm interested in him!â Qian Lan giggled.
âWhat?â her friend cried in surprise. âQian Lan, is there something wrong with your brain? I donât expect you to find a tall, rich and handsome guy, but at least find someone thatâs normal. Look at Mo Zichen, he looks like a weirdo from head to toe. What do you like about him?â
âYou need to think it over carefully, Miss Mayorâs Daughter. Although you didnât rely on your parents to get to where you are, you canât be so shabby. Look at your older sister, she married some kinda MIT professor who recently opened his own laboratory. Do you want to lose to her?â
âThere are actually plenty of choices at the school. Itâs just that you wonât reveal your identity. If you did, plenty of men would throw themselves at you!â
Qian Lan brushed away her friends arm and laughed, âAs long as I like him, why does it matter what others say?â
âOh you, I really donât understand what youâre thinking.â
âFine, since you like him, Iâll get his phone number for you. Thereâs no need to thank me!â
As a result, Qian Lan got a hold of Mo Zichenâs phone number. But, she was too afraid to contact him because she was afraid he would find it too sudden. She was, after all, a woman, so she didnât really want to be the initiator.
After returning home, one of the maids approached and said, âSecond Miss, the Big Miss is waiting for you with the Madam.â
âOK,â Qian Lan changed into a pair of slippers and walked into the dining room. She then sat down at her usual seat on the dining table.
âQian Lan, your fatherâs found you a few young and capable men, when will you have time to meet with them?â Mother Qian asked as she held back a smile.
âMom, I want to find someone myself.â
âNo, I donât trust your judgment. Look at what a great husband your sisterâs found. Your father and I simply want to find someone to take good care of our little princess.â
Qian Lan revealed an awkward smile, but she did not say a word nor look at her sister.
Soon, her so-called brother-in-law came downstairs. But, Qian Lan simply greeted him timidly and left the dining table.
âThat childâs getting more and more bad mannered.â
âMom, itâs fine,â the man quickly comforted Mother Qian before he sat down beside his wife.
This manâs name was Xu Chunhao. He was once Qian Lanâs school senior who she also dated for two years. However, Xu Chunhao ended up going overseas, and when he finally returned, he somehow turned into her brother-in-law.
From that moment on, Qian Lan no longer expected too much from men. She simply wanted someone that was honest and low key; someone like Mo Zichen.
It seemed, Xu Chunhao found her sister was more mature and successful.
That night, Xu Chunhao came knocking on Qian Lanâs door and walked in like he was thereâ to give her honest advice, âMomâs only doing this for your own good. She wants you to meet some good men.â
âIf I find a good man, Iâm sure youâll be put in a difficult position,â Qian Lan laughed. âIf thereâs nothing else, please leave. I still need to prepare for my class tomorrow.â
There was nothing that Xu Chunhao could do. So, he simply left the room.
The only reason why Qian Lanâs sister wasnât jealous was because she knew her husband was going into Qian Lanâs room to show off.
After all, it was impossible for Qian Lan to find someone better.
At that moment, Qian Lan felt tempted to message Mo Zichen.
So, she pulled out her phone, and after staring at it for ages, she finally sent him a message. It was just a few simple words: âHi, itâs Qian Lan, are you asleep yet?â
...
At the time that Mo Zichen received Qian Lanâs message, he was having dinner at home because his brother had returned from the military.
Because Mo Zixi made it into the military university, he had to undertake training at the army base.
âZichen, you sure enjoy struggling. Hai Rui is such a big company, but instead of casually helping dad out and enjoying the life of an heir, youâve gone to be a teacher.â
Compared to Mo Zichenâs tall slender body, Mo Zixi was more on the built and strong side.
His skin was tanned from his time in the military and it gave him an especially healthy glow.
âBig Brother and Brother Two, stop chatting, come in and help mom carry some dishes,â Mo Ziyan cried from the kitchen.
âComing,â Mo Zixi said cheerily as he turned towards the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Mo Zichen tried to recall how long it had been since he last returned home? Even he couldnât remember properly. Perhaps, 5 years...
When he saw that his parents were still as distinguished and elegant as they always were, Mo Zichen felt as though he had only left home for 5 days.
Mo Ting still looked the same and was still as powerful and respected as ever. Everything about him was good except for the fact that he wouldnât allow his three kids to cause Tangning too much trouble because he was a complete wife slave.
Meanwhile, Tangning didnât change much either. Her legs were still long and gorgeous and she maintained her appearance well.
âZichen, I think itâs almost time that you return home,â Tangning said to her son.
Mo Zichen had been smart from a young age, so this helped him set his own ideals in life. As a result, he left home many years ago to experience life on his own. But, no one had any idea that he was actually the son of The Big Boss of Entertainment, Mo Ting, and The Mother of Sci-fi, Tangning.
