Chapter 99 What methods does Young Master Mo intend to use against my girlfriend?
Mo Yuan stared at Chu Rou for a few seconds before looking away. His wife was still standing beside him, so he had to be more discreet.
Chu Rou regretted coming with Qi Hang. He was too conspicuous. As soon as she entered the banquet hall, people kept coming and going around her, giving her no chance to leave. Her legs were sore from standing.
With a smile, she whispered in Qi Hang's ear, "Mr. Qi, I'm tired and would like to sit for a while."
Qi Hang looked at her affectionately, then said to the people gathered around, "Excuse me, everyone, my companion is tired. I'll take her to rest first."
Those around him joked, "Young Master Qi is feeling sorry for him, hahaha!"
People scattered in all directions, and Chu Rou could no longer maintain her smile.
Qi Hang helped Chu Rou to the rest area and sat her down next to Mo Chi.
Chu Rou turned her leg to the side and pressed on her calf muscles.
"Rou Rou, does your leg hurt? Let me rub it for you." Mo Chi bent down to touch Chu Rou's leg.
Chu Rou dodged, "Are you crazy? Your second brother is still here. Are you afraid he doesn't know about our relationship?"
Mo Chi sat up straight and touched his nose. "I'm just used to it!"
Qi Hang suddenly said, "Or should I do it?"
Mo Chi's gaze was like swords and knives, as if he wanted to stab Qi Hang's body into countless bloody holes.
Chu Rou chuckled dryly, "President Qi, please stop joking."
Qi Lin then stretched out her little foot, "Brother, my foot hurts, can you rub it for me?"
Qi Hang scoffed, "Your feet smell terrible, put your shoes on properly."
Qi Lin withdrew her foot and put on her high heels with a wronged expression.
At this moment, the banquet hall became noisy again, and Mo Chi and his group looked towards the entrance.
"Mo Chi, your parents are here," Qi Lin reminded him. "Shouldn't we go over and greet them?"
It turned out that Mo Chi's parents had arrived. Chu Rou looked over carefully.
Mo Chi's father looked to be in his fifties, with a few gray hairs at his temples, but he was upright and had bright, piercing eyes. Mo Chi's eyebrows and eyes were very similar to his father's.
Upon seeing Mo Chi's mother, Chu Rou was somewhat surprised; she was too young and looked more like Mo Chi's older sister.
Chu Rou turned to look at Mo Chi and asked, "Is that really your mother?"
Mo Chi nodded and said in a deep voice, "My mother is 15 years younger than my father."
Chu Rou said "Oh," and added, "Your mother is so beautiful!"
Not only is she beautiful and young, but she also maintains a great figure. No wonder she was forced to marry Mo Chi's father!
Mo Chi stood up. "Rou Rou, I have to go now. You rest here for a while. There's food over there if you get hungry."
Chu Rou nodded. "Go ahead, go ahead, I'll watch over you from here."
Mo Chi and Qi Lin walked over together.
Qi Hang didn't move.
Chu Rou looked at him, "Mr. Qi, aren't you going over to say hello?"
"No rush, would you like something to drink? I'll get it for you," Qi Hang asked.
"Juice, thank you!"
Chu Rou was both thirsty and exhausted. Attending such banquets was truly exhausting, but the wealthy seemed to enjoy it immensely, all for the sake of building a wider network of connections.
"Beautiful lady, we meet again."
A figure blocked the light in front of Chu Rou. She looked up and saw that it was Mo Chi's second brother, Mo Yuan.
Chu Rou withdrew her gaze, sat up straight, and pulled her shawl tighter to cover her shoulders and chest.
"Are you sure you've got the right person? I don't know you."
Mo Yuan didn't leave. Instead, he sat down next to Chu Rou, leaned over, and stared at Chu Rou's profile.
Chu Rou felt a chill run down her spine. This man was so rude! How could he stare at a girl like that? She turned and glared at Mo Yuan. "This seat is taken. My friend will be back soon. Please leave."
"Friends?" Mo Yuan smirked. "Qi Hang? You'd be better off following me than him."
Chu Rou laughed angrily, "What good is it to be with you? Can you compare to President Qi?"
“Try it,” a glint of lust flashed in Mo Yuan’s eyes, “You’ll know how good I am once you try it!”
Chu Rou was disgusted. She clenched her fists. If the occasion weren't so inappropriate, she would have let him test how hard her fists were.
She glanced at Mo Yuan and said sarcastically, "Judging by your age, you should be over 30. Men of this age are already on the decline. How can you compare to young men in their 20s?"
"Your face is pale, your eyes are sunken, and you walk with a limp gait. It's obvious that you've been indulging in excessive sexual activity. I think you should take better care of your health."
Mo Yuan's face turned from pale to black, and his eyes became sinister. "You're not going to listen to reason with me. You're forcing me to use underhanded methods, aren't you?"
"What methods does Young Master Mo intend to use against my girlfriend?"
Qi Hang brought over two drinks. He handed the juice to Chu Rou and asked, "Rou Rou, what did you do to offend Young Master Mo?"
"Girlfriend?" Mo Yuan looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Chu Rou knew that Qi Hang was helping her out of her predicament. She took the juice from his hand and smiled, "Thank you, darling."
She glanced at Mo Yuan and said to Qi Hang, "This gentleman is trying to poach your man, saying he's better than you, better than you."
“I didn’t want to say a few words to him, and he got angry and wanted to deal with me.”
Qi Hang's face darkened. "Isn't what Second Young Master Mo is doing a bit too much?"
Mo Yuan stood up and smiled awkwardly, "It's just a misunderstanding, Young Master Qi, don't worry about it. Let's get together alone another day, my treat, as an apology."
Qi Hang gave a casual "hmm," and Mo Yuan wisely left.
Chu Rou glared angrily at Mo Yuan as he walked away, and spat, "What a scoundrel! How could Mo Chi's second brother be so shameless!"
“He’s more than just shameless,” Qi Hang said, sitting down next to Chu Rou. “Tonight, you have to stick close to me and don’t give him a chance to make a move.”
Chu Rou was somewhat shocked, "He wouldn't really use some kind of trick, would he? He even dares to touch your girlfriend?"
"He wouldn't dare to act openly, but who knows what might happen secretly." Qi Hang narrowed his eyes; Mo Yuan was too ruthless.
Chu Rou's expression turned serious. Perhaps Mo Chi didn't dare to put her in the open for the sake of her safety.
His second brother was not an easy opponent.
Chu Rou searched for Mo Chi's figure.
He and Qi Lin stood beside his parents, and his father was introducing the Ink Pond to everyone.
If she hadn't appeared, Mo Chi might have married Qi Lin, which would have given him the support of the Qi family, making it much easier to eliminate Mo Yuan.
But what if he married her? Chu Rou asked herself honestly, what benefits would she gain from marrying Mo Chi?
She can help him manage his money and prevent him from squandering it; she can keep him in check and prevent him from going astray; and she can also assist him at work to make his life easier.
She wasn't entirely useless; she could be even better to Mo Chi and give him more love, something no one else could provide.
Perfect!
Chu Rou's mental preparation is complete.
After Mo Chi and the others had dealt with the situation to a certain extent, Qi Lin seemed to point in Chu Rou's direction, and then the four of them walked over together.
Chu Rou:......
What are they here for?
