Chapter 79 - 79: Keep a close eye on her_l
Meanwhile, at the Mo Group.
After reporting the incident of Gu Li trending for the wrong reasons to Mo Shiting, Lu Yang asked, “Young Master, do you want me to investigate this Count Allen?”
Mo Shiting gave him a cold glare, “Overstepping.”
A mere stranger is worthy of such fuss?
If Gu Li liked him, she would have been with him hundreds of years ago, why wait till now?
Seeing that he was not worried at all, Lu Yang couldn’t help but remind him, “Young Master, don’t forget, the Young Madam didn’t marry you because she liked you. If you’re interested in the Young Madam, you should keep a closer eye on her, lest she runs away one day.”
Struck by the truth, Mo Shiting’s handsome face swiftly darkened, “Have you finished your current work?”
Lu Yang straightened his back instantly, “No, I’ll get back to work.”
Even before Mo Shiting could reply, Lu Yang was out, faster than a rabbit.
Mo Shiting’s eyebrows knitted; just as he picked up his phone, he received a call from Gu Li.
With such a scandal, she finally remembered him?
He pressed the answer button, and a girl’s crisp voice came through from the other end, “Brother Ting, are you busy? Am I interrupting something?”
“What do you need from me?”
Mo Shiting asked in a deep voice, yet the corner of his mouth curved upwards unconsciously.
Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, Gu Li, probably clueless about her trending situation, asked cautiously, “Have you been online today?”
“Did you stir up trouble?”
Mo Shiting shot back.
Gu Li pouted, “How? I’m so obedient and cute, do I look like someone who would cause trouble?”
Mo Shiting:
“Brother Ting, I’m having a welcome dinner tonight for a friend who has come from afar. It’ll probably end late, so I won’t be coming back to the Blue Sky Blue Sea.”
Gu Li genuinely informed him of her schedule.
She thought he wouldn’t care if she came back or not, but to her surprise, he asked, “You’re planning to stay out all night?”
“Um…”
Gu Li stammered for a moment, “Don’t worry. I’m staying with my cousin. I stayed with her the days you were abroad too.”
Mo Shiting frowned.
So the moment he was away, she started living wild? She was living quite the free-spirited life.
“Brother Ting, are you listening?”
The girl’s sweet voice reeled Mo Shiting’s wandering thoughts back.
Mo Shiting responded with a hum. He intended to let her do her own thing, but for some reason, he found himself saying, “What time will it end? I’ll come pick you up.”
“Isn’t it too much trouble?”
Gu Li was taken aback.
“Not at all.”
“But…”
Gu Li’s eyes flickered, hesitating.
After all, the guest she was entertaining was Allen, and if they were to meet…
The picture was too beautiful; she dared not imagine.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door on Mo Shiting’s side. He promptly said, “This matter is settled. Send me the address.”
“Okay then, thank you.”
Fearing that further refusal would backfire, Gu Li accepted.
As soon as Mo Shiting hung up the call, Lu Yang, who had left not long ago, hurried back in.
“Young Master, I received news that Count Allen has just arrived at the Capital City International Airport.”
The hotel where Murong Si was staying was the same as Murong Qian’s.
After Da Ha helped him check-in, both of them went to find Murong Qian, or rather, the main person – Gu Li.
Gu Li didn’t really like the fact that Murong Si came to Hua Country at this moment, but she had no choice. After all, he was a guest, and she couldn’t just drive him away.
Luckily, although Murong Si was very active online, few people knew his real looks and Chinese name, so she wasn’t worried about being recognized.
As soon as Murong Si saw Gu Li, he rushed over to hug her, “Little Pear, I missed you..”
