"You have things to do, I'm sorry to keep you here!"
"..." Mo Tingqi choked. With this little girl's thick skin, how could she be embarrassed?
It's obvious he's telling him, "I don't want you here. Whether you're busy or not, get out of my way and don't interfere with my romance..."
Mo Tingqi glanced at her with a half-smile, his gaze meaningful as he asked, "Is it because you're embarrassed to stay, or because you don't want to stay?"
Mo Xiaoqing winked playfully.
She tilted her head slightly and smiled slyly, "Well, Third Brother can interpret this question however he wants!"
That wasn't exactly what I said to him directly; it was simply a matter of how he felt about it, and how he interpreted it was up to him!
Mo Tingqi was amused by her. Although he had always known that Mo Mo was heartless, he never expected that she would be so heartless even when she was with him!
When Mo Xiaoqing wasn't paying attention, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes. His originally devilishly handsome appearance was now marred by this melancholy gaze, which added to his mystique.
If any girl who admires Mo Tingqi were here, she would definitely be heartbroken by that one look from him, and feel extremely distressed!
After all, Mo Tingqi usually follows a path of extraordinary talent, so it's rare to see him looking so melancholy and sad!
Ji Muhan raised an eyebrow. Although it was just an inconspicuous gesture, both Mo Xiaoqing and Mo Tingqi could clearly feel his momentary good mood.
He liked Mo Xiaoqing's slightly playful mannerisms, just like when they first met. She spoke with a certain arrogance that seemed perfectly natural, yet it didn't make her seem repulsive.
In his world, there is only one person, Mo Xiaoqing, who can make him lower his bottom line again and again. To him, Mo Xiaoqing is a priceless treasure that is hard to come by.
That's why he was willing to indulge Mo Xiaoqing's little temper tantrums. Even though she did such audacious things in the special operations brigade, he still spoiled and protected her without hesitation.
perhaps…
Falling in love with her was something he hadn't expected, yet it was inevitable. But he never regretted it. It was only after falling for Mo Xiaoqing that he realized there were still beautiful things in this world.
Mo Xiaoqing tilted her head back and smiled at Ji Muhan, her eyes crinkling.
When the two of them looked at each other, it gave the impression that no one could get in, as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them! Everyone else was just insignificant...
Mo Tingqi smiled faintly, his narrow phoenix eyes slightly narrowed. He used all his strength to suppress the anger that was about to burst forth. Before anyone could react, his barrage of words was already directed at Ji Muhan. "I'm entrusting my precious Momo to you. I hope you won't disappoint me."
If Momo were to suffer even the slightest harm in his hands, he would take Mo Xiaoqing back without hesitation.
If Mo Xiaoqing could hear what her third brother was thinking, she would definitely roll her eyes in exasperation. She was right under his nose yesterday, and something still happened!
“Of course,” Ji Muhan replied firmly.
Mo Tingqi raised his long, narrow, and beautiful phoenix eyes slightly, a desolate and cold look deep within them. "How can I trust you?"
What he really meant was to ask Ji Muhan, "What do you have that I can believe in?"
"I value her life as my own!" As long as he remains standing, he will never allow anyone to have the chance to harm Momo under his very nose!
Ji Muhan didn't hesitate at all, as if it were a subconscious reaction.
Mo Xiaoqing blinked. It wasn't that she wasn't shocked by Ji Muhan's words, but after Ji Muhan confessed to her before, she already knew that someone with Ji Muhan's personality would inevitably value her more than life itself once she fell in love with her.
Therefore, she had no doubt about Ji Muhan's words. At the same time, she felt a warm current slowly flowing through her heart and limbs, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
Mo Tingqi narrowed his eyes. "I hope you can keep your word!"
"Goodbye, Third Brother."
Mo Xiaoqing's voice was as sweet as ever, each word enunciated clearly, soft and pleasant to the ear, but to his ears it sounded exceptionally harsh and unpleasant...
"Hmm." He also unusually refrained from laughing and joking with her.
After Mo Tingqi turned around, his eyes became incredibly sad for a moment.
No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, the only person standing by Momo's side right now, the only person who could make her happy, was Ji Muhan.
And he was also... Momo's favorite person...
Now, he has to admit this fact.
His precious treasure, which he cherished dearly, had already been taken away by someone else, and... that person was powerful enough to rival him. Such a man... he really had no reason to stop him!
Mo Tingqi closed his eyes. The usually arrogant man crumbled before her without her having to do anything. It wasn't that he hadn't considered forcing her...
I just couldn't bear to see her sad...
Mo Tingqi left, driving away under the watchful eyes of the two of them.
Mo Xiaoqing's delicate and beautiful face was unusually serious, as if she was thinking about something.
Ji Muhan remained silent. "Your third brother and you really have a good relationship!"
“Yes!” Mo Xiaoqing nodded without thinking too much about it.
“He’s very hostile towards me too!” Mo Tingqi has never hidden his hostility towards him, so how could he not see it?
