Chapter 68

At this moment, Shen Mingwan stood there like a sculpture, staring at Lu Liang with red eyes, saying word by word:

"You are not worthy of talking about her."

"Tomorrow night?" Li Ru looked at Shen Mingwan worriedly and did not let anyone come over to stop him.

This cousin really deserves a beating.

[Huh? What's going on? What's going on tomorrow night?]

[Wasn’t he eating well just now? Could it be that Lu Liang’s words irritated him?]

[This guy is such a big mouth, he can't even stop talking while eating.]

[Talking about someone else's crush in front of them is just asking for trouble.]

[However, Shen Mingwan still looks a little strange. He seems to be in pain. Is he missing Xiaoqian?]

"No, no? Um, this, this, this, this," Lu Liang's brain was still a little short-circuited, and it took him a while to straighten himself up, "Not this, Shen Mingwan, what are you doing!"

There were also several of Mo Keyu's bodyguards, several of the Shen family's nannies, as well as a housekeeper and a personal assistant standing in the hall.

They were also shocked by the scene.

The people who were most shocked were the aunts who had worked in the Shen family for many years. The two Shen brothers were both emotionally stable and polite to others, just like those young masters with many advantages on TV.

Even though Shen Mingwan was still a child, he would not hit anyone directly, let alone do it suddenly in front of everyone.

The air seemed to freeze, and the bodyguards could not move without Mo Keyu's order.

Their boss is the eldest Master Shen. If they were to recruit people, it would be beyond their job scope. On the other hand, recruiting the second Master would be inappropriate.

Shen Mingwan's lips trembled slightly, and in the end he said nothing and just turned and left.

Lu Liang was hit on the face so hard that if the force was stronger, his bones might have been dislocated. But the person who hit him just walked away as if nothing had happened?

"Cousin, look at your son. He beat me up, and you didn't do anything about it. I came to your house for a meal and talked about what happened in high school, and your son beat me up. I didn't expect the second young master of the Shen family to be so rude!"

Lu Liang wailed, with dozens of pairs of eyes staring at him. He simply sat on the ground and shouted, as if to announce Shen Mingwan's true identity to everyone.

Mo Keyu looked at this guy with disgust. This guy probably played too much. He had dark circles under his eyes and sunken cheeks, and seemed to lack yang energy. He looked more like a gangster from outside when he was acting like this.

Li Ru rubbed his brows and sighed, seeming to feel ashamed of this farce.

Then she spoke:

"Your father is still in the hospital. As a son, you should stay by his side."

Lu Liang was completely confused. Was his cousin trying to chase him away? His cousin had never treated him like this before. After all, he was still her younger brother.

"What do you mean? Cousin, what do you mean? Why are you acting like this to me too?

"They say the Shen family has good upbringing, but I think he's a savage, and he protects his son. Your son hit me, cousin, your son hit me!"

Mo Zhengtian didn't expect things to turn out like this. How did their meal with the Shen family turn out like this?

Lying on the ground was Lu Liang, the youngest son of the Lu family. How could the descendants of the Lu family be so despicable?

Was it Shen Mingwan who just beat someone up?

Mo Zhengtian was still confused. Looking at the current situation, even though he was the elder, it was not appropriate for him to intervene.

After all, this is someone else's family affair, and I can only stand aside and watch the fun like everyone else.

At this moment, Li Ru showed the same expression as Shen Mingli, frowning slightly:

"Lu Liang, I have guests. If you continue to act unreasonably, don't blame me for forcing you to leave."

Under such pressure, Lu Liang calmed down a lot. He looked at this dignified and beautiful cousin with somewhat blurred eyes, with a look of astonishment.

At this time, personal assistant Xiao Lin also came over. He pushed his glasses and said calmly:

"Sir, please leave."

"Okay, you guys are the best. I think you're all the same, just like that old immortal!"

Lu Liang sat up, then suddenly jumped up from the ground, glared at everyone, then slapped his butt and walked out cursing.

I don't know where he learned those dirty words.

Seeing Lu Liang completely walk away, Li Ru smiled awkwardly at the Mo family father and daughter:

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"It's okay, it's okay." Mo Zhengtian replied.

Now there were only three of them left at the table, and they had no appetite to eat.

[Really? Lu Liang showed up halfway through and ruined the good atmosphere.]

[Actually, I still don’t know why Mrs. Li asked me to come here.]

[It's just a simple meal, but what is it? He even called his dad over.]

[I wonder how Shen Mingwan is doing now.]

"Mr. Mo, and Ke Yu, are you guys full?"

"I'm full, I'm full." Mo Keyu nodded like a rattle. This meal would really be tasteless if he continued to eat it.

"I've also heard Ming Li mention you. You are very friendly people. This time I invited you to dinner as a gathering among friends. I was inconsiderate and made you laugh. I'm sorry," Li Ru said, waving to Assistant Lin next to him, "Then I'll let Xiao Lin take you back."

At this moment, the sound of a flute was heard outside, and the housekeeper walked up to Li Ru and said, "Madam, the young master is back."

Mo Keyu's whole body tensed up all of a sudden.

Shen Mingli is back!

Li Ru noticed Mo Keyu's abnormality and said:

"Please wait a moment. Now that Mingli is back, let him greet the guests first."

"No need. The eldest master is so busy at work, he will have to say hello to us when he comes back. We won't bother you. Ke Yu, let's go." Mo Zhengtian had no idea what the young people were thinking, and pulled Mo Ke Yu to leave.

It was quite unexpected to come here for dinner, and to have the eldest son of the Shen family personally greet us as soon as he came back, how could it be such an honor?

However, Mo Keyu stood there motionless as if a nail had been driven into his foot: "Dad, it's not good for us to leave when someone comes."

At this moment, there were several hurried footsteps outside the door.

Shen Mingli walked in, covered in dust. As he walked, he took off his black coat and handed it to the assistant next to him. Then he pulled the black gloves on his hands. At this moment, he stopped.

"Ming Li, you're back." Li Ru smiled at him.

Shen Mingli nodded, his deep eyes looking straight at the girl next to Li Ru.

He had just come back from outside, and there were still tiny drops of water on his forehead and the tip of his nose was slightly red, adding an extra touch of embellishment to his handsome and cold face.

He hummed.

Mo Keyu also stared at him, his mind went blank and his heart couldn't stop beating.

"We invited the Mo family's father and daughter to our house for dinner today, and they were just about to leave." Li Ru said. She had never looked away from the two of them, so how could she not see it?

"Okay," he said, then took off his gloves, revealing his slender hands, and continued, "It's too hasty to leave right after dinner. Let's chat for a while before leaving."

"No, Mr. Shen, thank you for your hospitality, but I have some things to do at home..."

When Mo Zhengtian heard this, he thought it was just a polite remark from the other party and blurted it out.

Mo Keyu pulled Mo Zhengtian's hand hard and refused to leave.

"Dad, I still feel a little hungry!"

Mo Keyu tried hard to give Mo Zhengtian a look, but her father was a little too stubborn. He didn't even think about the young man and actually thought his daughter was hungry, so he started to look embarrassed.

"I'm so busy today that I haven't eaten anything this afternoon. Is there any dinner at home?"

Shen Mingli asked.

"Yes, there are many more," said Li Ru.

"Then let's have dinner together." He said, signaling Mo Keyu with his eyes.

Mo Keyu quickly agreed: "Okay!"

Since Shen Mingli said so, what else could Mo Zhengtian say? He had no choice but to go back.

At this time, the nanny had replaced the bowls and chopsticks they had just used on the table with new ones, and also brought some desserts after the meal.

Shen Mingli walked straight to the table, and Mo Keyu followed him slowly. However, when he stopped, Mo Keyu also stopped behind him.

"Sit down," he said.

"Okay, Mingli."

When he heard the word "Ming Li", a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Mo Keyu found a chair and sat down, and Shen Mingli sat next to her.

The bodyguard captain was tactful enough to take his men out to wait, and the nanny and housekeeper beside him kept a considerable distance from the dining table.

"Why did you suddenly come here today?" he asked, his voice still as pleasing to the ears.

"I got an invitation from your mother, and we were just having dinner."

Shen Mingli glanced at his mother, and Li Ru was smiling at them.

He looked at Mo Zhengtian next to him, who was also looking at them with suspicion.

[By the way, I haven’t told my family about that yet. I’m afraid my dad will worry about me.]

[Should I ask Shen Mingli how he handled this matter? Does he need any help?]

[My father is still here. In order to avoid exposing this fact, I acted like I didn’t know Shen Mingli at all in front of him.]

[But actually…actually I really…I really like it…]

[Actually, I really like him.]

Mo Keyu started to daydream again, and as she thought about it, her face turned red.

Shen Mingli's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, his eyes became deeper, and then he took a sip of tea lightly.

When Mo Zhengtian heard this, his face turned pale instantly.

Although it was the voice of my heart, I couldn't let my imagination run wild! If I guessed correctly, the people in the Shen family seemed to be able to hear it!

And what about this "this matter"? What does this matter refer to? Doesn't it make him worry that he has offended someone serious?

At first, Mo Zhengtian was still guessing that Mo Keyu had offended the Shen family, but now he found out that his daughter was taking sides and that she had actually offended someone else.

“Cough cough cough cough cough cough,” Mo Zhengtian had no choice but to use his ultimate move again, “Ke Yu… cough cough, give me a glass of water.”

"Oh, Dad, why are you coughing again?" Mo Keyu hurriedly brought him some water and patted Mo Zhengtian on the back.

"Ke Yu, how about we leave first?" Mo Zhengtian couldn't help but suggest. He was really afraid that if his daughter's true feelings were revealed, it would cause some trouble in the Shen family.

Although he has achieved certain success and status in the business world, if he provokes the Shen family, he will be in a lot of trouble.

Besides, didn’t we hear before that a big family like the Shen family was going to form an alliance? Even though the Pei family lost a fake daughter, they still had a real daughter.

Even if the Shen family has a good reputation, the affairs of this big family are unclear, so it is better for him to keep a distance, not to mention that he only has one daughter, Mo Keyu.

Shen Mingli knew that Mo Zhengtian could hear what was in his heart, so he suddenly stood up and said to Mo Zhengtian:

"Mr. Mo, I want to talk to you alone, is that ok?"

"Oh? Sure."

Afterwards, Shen Mingli walked towards a corridor in the hall. Mo Zhengtian had no reason to refuse. In addition, the Shen family and the Mo family had a cooperation, so he could not refuse.

[Hey, why did you suddenly take Dad out?]

[Is Shen Mingli going to talk about the Gu family incident? Or is he just simply discussing cooperation?]

[Yes, I should talk to my dad about the bodyguards. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why there are so many bodyguards all of a sudden, and they are all from his company.]

As Mo Keyu thought about it, she no longer cared about what Shen Mingli said to his father. Rather than that, she wanted to know whether Shen Mingli had encountered any difficulties or whether he would encounter an unscrupulous business rival.

Just then, the nanny brought in a few plates of small cakes. They were Bibimbap-shaped cakes with a thin layer of chocolate sauce on them.

Mo Keyu remembered this dessert. Last time in the cafe, she ate several of them and praised them highly. In the end, Shen Mingli even asked her to pack a bag to take back.

I didn't expect to meet you here again.

"In the past, we rarely had dessert after dinner. Sometimes I would order some pastries, but recently I noticed that there are more snacks on the menu at home." Li Ru said, and chuckled at Mo Keyu, "No one at home likes desserts, and Mingwan has gradually stopped eating them as he grows up. It's not like he would put snacks in the shape of little bears or cherry blossoms on the table."

[So what are these desserts about…]

[Could it be that...Mrs. Li has the same preferences as me!]
