Mo Qing couldn't tell from his calm expression whether he was angry or not, but she knew that the more composed her brother appeared, the more furious he was inside.
She cleverly raised her lips and said with a sweet, flattering smile, "Brother, it's been so long since I've seen you, you've become more and more handsome."
"Haven't seen you in a while, and you're getting more and more talkative?" Mo Yanyu glanced at Mo Qing, who was trying to ingratiate herself, with a half-smile. Unfortunately, he didn't buy it and gave a cool smile. "You should say that to the people around you. I can't bear the thought."
Mo Qing gasped, feeling a pang of unease. "..."
Oh no, oh no, oh no…
Her brother is really angry! It's even more terrifying than last time.
They're even using such a polite tone, saying they can't afford it. Her brother is clearly warning her that if she really does that, he might just disown her...
"Brother, well...actually..." Mo Qing really couldn't come up with a reason, because she knew that being caught red-handed like this, any excuse would be clumsy, so she could only obediently lower her head and admit her mistake, "Brother, I was wrong, really, I know I was wrong."
"You always say the same thing to me." Mo Yanyu had given up all hope for Mo Qing's words and ruthlessly shattered her promise.
He'd heard too many of Mo Qing's apologies and promises every now and then, and he no longer expected her words to have any effect!
He glanced at Ji Muhan beside her with slightly cold eyes, his voice exceptionally indifferent, "Come here."
Mo Qing hesitated for a moment, her eyes filled with obvious pleading as she looked at Mo Yanyu.
"Aren't you coming over here? Do you want me to come and grab you?" Mo Yanyu's eyes were calm and indifferent. She wasn't angry at Mo Qing's unmoved attitude and said casually.
Mo Qing glanced at Ji Muhan beside her, which made Mo Yanyu's eyes even colder. Without saying a word, she took three steps forward, pushed aside Ji Muhan's movements, bent down and picked up Mo Qing in her arms.
"Lieutenant Colonel Ji, you don't need to take care of my sister. I can take good care of her myself. You should focus on managing your team. I hope we can go our separate ways and have no further contact. I believe you think so too, right?"
Who is Mo Yanyu? He is the heir carefully cultivated by the Mo family. Although he did not ultimately follow the path arranged for him by Mo Qing, his manners and upbringing are absolutely top-notch.
One thing the Mo family members (except Mo Qing) had to do was to keep their emotions hidden, and Mo Yanyu was already doing this very well when she was fourteen.
Therefore, even under such circumstances, Mo Yanyu was still able to keep it to herself, and a faint and distant address clearly defined the boundary between them.
Ji Muhan stared blankly at Mo Yanyu's hand on Mo Qing's waist, feeling inexplicably annoyed and uncomfortable. She couldn't help but want to go forward and pull Mo Qing back...
Mo Qing reflexively took two steps back. "Brother, I don't want to go back."
"Is it because of him again?" As she said this, Mo Yanyu subconsciously glanced at Ji Muhan behind her.
She pursed her lips. Although she didn't want her brother to develop a deeper prejudice against Ji Muhan, she had to admit that she did want to stay here because of Hanhan.
Mo Yanyu looked at her calmly, "You like him that much?"
Mo Qing was taken aback, then immediately nodded, her eyes revealing a rare firmness, "I like her very much. In this life, I will never like anyone else except Hanhan."
Because there will never be anyone who treats her as well as Hanhan, and there will never be another Hanhan; she is irreplaceable.
Mo Yanyu frowned. He was quite surprised when he heard Mo Qing's words. After all, he had always thought of Mo Mo as the girl in his memory who would cry loudly if she fell down.
Mo Qing stared at him with her beautiful, bright eyes, and tentatively asked, "Brother, do you really hate Hanhan that much?"
"Yes, I am. Will you listen to me?" Mo Yanyu had never compromised in front of anyone, not even his parents. He would only remain silent. But when it came to Mo Qing, he could only sigh helplessly.
"No." Mo Qing was taken aback, then answered without hesitation.
But another pretty face, streaked with tears, involuntarily surfaced in his mind, her eyes unwavering, and his heart trembled.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, wondering why he always encountered people so devoted to love.
My heart softened.
He reached out and gently wiped the dust off Mo Qing's face, a dust that seemed to have gotten on her from somewhere, and said ambiguously, "I understand."
Mo Qing was still a little confused. "Huh?"
Mo Yanyu's gaze towards Mo Qing grew increasingly profound. After a long while, he gently loosened his clenched fists, a tender smile playing on his lips, and let out a helpless sigh.
"Brother, does this mean you're agreeing to let me continue pursuing Hanhan?" Mo Qing's eyes lit up, and her previously somewhat aggrieved expression immediately turned into surprise. She subconsciously grabbed his arm and looked at him expectantly, seemingly determined to see him nod.
When Mo Yanyu heard her use the word "pursue" so casually, her brow twitched slightly, and she was somewhat displeased, but she didn't show it. Her expression remained indifferent. "I can only promise you that even if you return to Lindu, you can still see him. As for the rest, I will maintain my original attitude."
Although I don't like Ji Muhan, hearing my darling use the word "pursue" made me feel quite annoyed.
He thought to himself, "The girl they all dote on is someone he doesn't even bother to look at."
Okay, you can't interpret a sister-obsessed person's way of thinking with normal logic. He doesn't like Ji Muhan and Mo Qing getting together, but he also doesn't want Ji Muhan to look down on his spoiled little girl like this!
