Chapter 58 Am I really that pitiful?
"Haven't had a fight in a long time, huh!"
Shi Jingsheng dismissed it with disdain.
"I'm serious. You don't think I'm joking, do you? Do you think I'm that bored?"
Mo Ziyuan kept his head down and didn't speak. Sitting on the sofa, anyone who didn't know him would think he was a very good and innocent person. The main reason was that the man felt it wasn't appropriate for him to speak at this time, right? Otherwise, what if he accidentally revealed that he strongly agreed with Shi Jingsheng's idea?
"Quickly, get some medicine for my sister."
"Tsk, why are you taking medicine? Don't you know that all medicines have some side effects?"
Lin Yi'an was about to speak when he suddenly looked at the innocent-looking Mo Ziyuan.
"Why did you get sick from holding it in?"
"Ahem, he must be too infatuated with the woman he likes. Asking Ziyuan about this is pointless, you don't even know this."
The innocent Mo Ziyuan finally spoke.
"Jing Sheng, please prescribe some medicine for me. I'm not afraid of poison, but her family doesn't agree, so there's nothing I can do."
“Speak properly. There are no outsiders here. What are you pretending for? I already said I would help you, and you still don’t want my help.”
Even Lin Yi-an couldn't stand it.
Shi Jingsheng was speechless. Who was he trying to disgust? It's not like we don't know his true colors, yet he was still pretending.
"I didn't say I wouldn't let you help, because I was afraid I couldn't argue with him. But she and I are truly in love, and I hope her family can gradually accept it."
Lin Yi'an almost threw up. How did Mo Ziyuan become like this? It's quite frightening.
"Okay, then let her family accept it gradually. But if you two like each other, it should be easier for her family to accept it."
Mo Ziyuan: "Mhm."
Shi Jingsheng: "..."
Lin Yi-an: "What about my sister? Will it affect her health?"
"It has an effect, you can try dietary therapy, eat some lamb, beef or something..."
Mo Ziyuan was very dissatisfied with this answer. He felt that he was quite suitable to help Yi Luo. Could Lin Yi'an even focus his attention on him? He was so good, and he wouldn't suffer any loss... Forget it, he would just help her secretly at night.
…………
Mo Ziyuan stood up and prepared to leave.
Lin Yi-an: Where are you going?
"Go to work." He should hurry up and go now so he can have some fun tonight.
…………
As dusk slowly streamed into the office, the man rubbed his temples, and seeing that he had almost finished his work, he prepared to go home.
Zhao Ming walked in; he was the last person Mo Ziyuan wanted to see.
"What's up?"
Zhao Ming was still oblivious to the fact that he was being disliked, and continued talking to himself.
"Young Master, news has come from the manor that the head of the family requests your return."
"What are Jing Sheng and Yi An doing?"
"The two young masters should still be drinking."
"Understood, arrange a car!"
Honestly, I finally finished my work, and Jing Sheng and Yi An are still at home, not even going out for drinks, which is a waste of time.
…………
At the Mo family's old mansion, the butler stepped forward to take his young master's coat. He could sense that his young master seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Young Master, please sit at the dining table and wait. The head of the family will be down shortly."
At the dining table, Mrs. Zhou glanced at her manicured nails from time to time, Zhou Li leaned back in his chair playing games, and Zhou Xiao looked at Mo Ziyuan as if she had something to say but didn't know what to say.
The moment Mo Family Master stepped into the restaurant, the servants all straightened their backs. Zhou Li hurriedly turned off the game, and Zhou Xiao also stood up, calling out in unison, "Dad."
Only Mo Ziyuan was sitting there.
The Mo family leader glanced at them and then asked them to sit down.
Mo Ziyuan: "Did Father call me home for something?"
“There are indeed some things. You’re not young anymore. I’ll find you a few young ladies from prominent families who are good-looking and gentle. Go have a meal with them.”
The words had been spoken when everyone present was shocked.
Mrs. Zhou: "Why didn't you discuss this with me?"
The Mo family leader glared at him.
Madam Zhou quickly explained, "I was just worried about Ziyuan and wanted to help him find someone suitable."
"You don't need to worry about Ziyuan's affairs. After all, he's not your biological child. Just take care of the other two."
Mrs. Zhou's smile froze on her face instantly. Her fingertips unconsciously rubbed the rim of the cup. After a long while, she managed to force a smile.
"Father, I'm not in a hurry about this."
"Aren't you in a hurry?" The head of the Mo family slammed his hand on the table, causing the cups and saucers to tremble slightly.
"I know you're busy, so I found a few for you. Go take a look."
"I'm not going. I have someone I like, and we'll get married." The man's tone was calm, but every word was firm and resolute.
The leader of the Mohist school was truly furious.
"You have someone you like? Who? Just play around. The person I found not only comes from a good family and is beautiful, but will also benefit your business."
"I don't need it."
Mo Ziyuan maintained a cold expression.
"Father, please don't worry about my affairs."
Mrs. Zhou was extremely anxious.
"If Ziyuan doesn't want it, then let's show it to Lili. Lili should get married soon."
Zhou Xiao chimed in from the side, "That's right, Father. My brother definitely has his own opinions."
The Mo family leader stopped speaking, and the scene became very quiet.
Mo Ziyuan stood up. "Father, it's getting late, I'll head back now."
As they reached the door, the Mo family patriarch finally spoke.
"Stop right there."
But Mo Ziyuan seemed not to hear him and left directly.
…………
Back home, Shi Jingsheng and Lin Yi'an were having a good time, with their arms around each other's shoulders, drinking and chatting happily.
Mo Ziyuan: "Take them both to the guest rooms."
The butler quickly stepped forward.
"Yes, young master."
Ilo stood at the top of the stairs, looking down.
Mo Ziyuan: "What is Yiluo baby doing here?"
"I've been waiting for you!" A soft, sweet voice rang out, instantly soothing Mo Ziyuan's heart and moving him deeply.
"Come on, let Brother Ziyuan take you back to your room."
The two sat on the soft bed, Lin Yilu tilting her head, her clear eyes fixed on Mo Ziyuan.
"Brother Ziyuan, are you unhappy?"
Seeing that she had discovered him, Mo Ziyuan made no attempt to hide it and simply pulled the girl into his arms.
"Brother Ziyuan is unhappy."
"Then why aren't you happy?"
"My father wants me to get married." Mo Ziyuan looked even more heartbroken as he said this.
"You want my brother to get married? Who will he marry?" Lin Yiluo grabbed his clothes anxiously, her fingertips trembling slightly.
"If I were to marry someone that Brother Ziyuan doesn't like, I would be unhappy."
Lin Yiluo's eyes were red.
"Then let's not get married, okay? You shouldn't marry her."
Mo Ziyuan then said that his marriage was not good.
“If I get married, Yi Luo and Yi An won’t be able to live in my house anymore, because there will be a strange woman coming to my house. Yi Luo won’t be able to like me anymore, let alone kiss me, and I won’t be able to kiss Yi Luo either.”
"Ah, no, Brother Ziyuan, you can't get married."
"Yeah, I don't want it to be like this either, but everyone has to get married and spend their whole life together. Am I so pathetic that I can only stay with someone I don't like and then marry her and have children?"
Upon hearing this, the girl began to cry and sob uncontrollably.
"I don't want you to get married, not at all."
"I don't want to either."
After a long while, Mo Ziyuan raised his head and met Lin Yiluo's gaze.
