Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Mo Qin's first project related to Lu's has progressed more than half.
It was not known whether it was because of Lu's trust in Mo's or because their business acumen was not sensitive enough, but by the time they found out they had been cheated, it was already too late to make amends.
Although it was not a major loss that threatened life, it still caused them to lose a lot of money.
Father Lu endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help it and called Father Mo to ask for an explanation.
Father Mo held the phone, listening to the voice on the other end. His tone was full of doubt and innocence:
"I just found out about this... I never thought there would be an accident..."
"Of course not. Our two families have been friends for so many years, how could I do such a thing? Don't you still trust me?"
"Ah? No! Qinqin was just bored at home, so she came to the company to play. Children are very curious, but how can they compare to your Yueqi..."
"Sure, no problem!"
When Mo Qin heard that her father had hung up the phone, she looked up and met his resentful eyes.
Father Mo said dotingly, "Look at the good things you've done, and now they're calling to question you."
All the bad things were done by his daughter, and in the end he, the old father, had to clean up the mess.
It is said that plans cannot keep up with changes, but in this pit... project, Mo's father deeply felt Mo Qin's ability to adapt.
He was incredibly proud.
Mo Qin blinked and smiled at Father Mo:
"I did the work, but it was all with your consent. We, father and daughter, work together very well!"
“…”
Can Father Mo refute it?
Of course he couldn't, and he was even very happy in his heart.
After the fun was over, Father Mo said:
"Your Uncle Lu said that our two families should have dinner together this weekend."
Mo's father guessed that the other party wanted to take this opportunity to discuss the marriage of Mo Qin and Lu Yueqi. This matter was arranged when they were young, and everyone in the circle knew about it, but there had been no formal engagement ceremony.
Recently, Mo Qin has repeatedly rejected Lu Yueqi's advances, and now the Lu family has proposed that the two families have a meal together.
The smile on Mo Qin's face faded as she waited for her father's next words.
"Qinqin, what do you think of Yueqi? Is it true..." Father Mo confirmed again and again, "You don't like him and don't want to marry him?"
Not long ago, at the doctor's suggestion, Mo Qin went to the hospital for a more detailed examination.
The doctor’s answer was that as long as there were no accidents, living past the age of 20 would not be a problem, but the follow-up remained to be seen.
For a moment, both Mo's father and mother were full of hope for the future.
For someone who doesn't live past the age of twenty, it doesn't matter whether they are engaged or married. But now that Mo Qin's health has improved and she still has a long life to live, marrying into the Lu family is indeed not a good choice.
If Mo Qin really doesn't like Lu Yueqi anymore, then they will have to start looking for a son-in-law for Mo Qin.
Mo Qin had no idea what the Mo family's parents were thinking. She just wanted to deal with the Lu family first.
"No, I don't want to marry Lu Yueqi."
Father Mo observed Mo Qin's face for two seconds, and after confirming that Mo Qin was serious, he made the final decision:
"Okay, then let Mom and Dad take care of this matter. We'll cancel the Lu family's engagement."
This time, Mo Qin shook her head and said, "Dad, there's no rush."
Father Mo was confused. He had just said that he didn't want to get married, so why was he no longer in a hurry to cancel the engagement?
"What's the meaning?"
"The Lu family just suffered a loss, and now we want to cancel the engagement, they definitely won't agree." Mo Qin speculated reasonably, "Even if they agree, will you have to give them another 'apology'?"
Of course, Mo's father knew about these things, but he didn't take them to heart at all.
Father Mo waved his hand and said in a heroic tone, "What's the big deal? If you don't want to get married, then don't get married. Mom and Dad can still solve this problem."
"Don't worry about that."
Mo Qin couldn't help but laugh, "Dad, I have a better way to cancel the engagement, and the Lu family is in the wrong, but we just need to wait a little longer."
Thinking of the non-stimulating photos she had recently obtained, Mo Qin had an idea in mind.
Father Mo smelled something from it, and all kinds of thoughts turned in his mind, but he couldn't grasp any useful clues.
"Did that kid from the Lu family do something to offend you?"
Mo Qin didn't tell the truth, but just said:
"Dad, just listen to me on this matter. I'm sure I can handle it."
What else could Mr. Mo do? Of course he would obey.
My daughter is grown up now, so I have to pay attention to her.
-
At the weekend dinner between the Lu and Mo families, the Lu family took the opportunity to propose an engagement ceremony for the two children.
Mo's father brought up Mo Qin's health.
Mo Qin's condition is still unstable. Not only is the engagement stressful and tiring, but she also feels guilty for delaying the development of such a good child like Lu Yueqi.
Besides, their daughter is young and not yet nineteen years old. They just want to spend more time with her and don’t want her to get married so early.
Father Lu's smiling face froze a little, and he couldn't help cursing in his heart. He tried to wink at Lu Yueqi, and the latter understood.
There was a large round table with six stools sparsely placed on it, and Lu Yueqi happened to sit next to Mo Qin.
He quickly told the three Mo family members the good news:
"A few days ago, I received good news from the research institute I funded. They have developed a drug that can treat Qinqin's heart disease, and it is currently in the trial stage."
These words seemed to ring a bell in the hearts of Mo's father and mother.
No matter how much they tried to hide it, they couldn't hide the shock and excitement in their eyes.
"Yueqi, are you telling the truth?"
Lu Yueqi showed a confident smile, "Of course it's true."
He took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket, which contained only two pills.
"This is the research result they submitted. Uncle Mo, you can ask someone to verify it and you will know that I am not exaggerating."
The medicine bottle was placed on the turntable and came in front of Mr. Mo. Mr. Mo looked at the ordinary-looking pills and couldn't wait to test them.
Mo Qin looked at the excited Mo father and Mo mother, and was also a little curious about the pills in the bottle.
Can medicine made from mermaid blood really cure diseases that cannot be treated by humans now?
In the plot, was the original owner's death intentional by the Lu family, or was the medicine not that useful?
Lu Yueqi knew that he had made the right move. "Once the clinical trial results come out, Qinqin's disease will be cured."
Having said that, Lu Yueqi turned to look at Mo Qin.
The only hope of survival is in his hands. Can Mo Qin still be as cold to him as before?
As it turns out, she really can.
Mo Qin smiled faintly and questioned him in a gentle tone:
"The world's top experts haven't found a solution yet. I wonder which research institute you funded could have achieved such impressive results? It must be a very famous one, right?"
These words woke Mo's father and mother from their joy.
In order to treat Mo Qin's illness, they even invited internationally renowned experts.
Many experts have examined it, but in the end they were powerless to do anything.
If there really was any progress, how could they not know?
"Yueqi, which research institute did you fund? Were you scammed?"
