Chapter 69
"Madam, your snacks are really delicious." Mo Keyu said.
The eldest son in the family has been behaving strangely lately, so Li Ru follows the clues and eventually finds the Mo family.
Now it seems that both sides are hiding and even a little slow.
"Ming Li added it specially." Li Ru said directly.
"Oh, so, our preferences are quite..."
No, Shen Mingli doesn't like desserts. Last time, she was the one eating them and he didn't touch them at all.
In an instant, Mo Keyu's entire face turned red, almost as red as blood.
These are her favorite foods.
[Ahhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhh.]
[So, is it really what I think?]
【Host, that should be it. 】
[Dad, what did he say to Dad just now?]
[He said that he also admires girls like you and hopes your father agrees.]
[Really? What about dad? What did dad say?]
[Your father looked shocked and thought he had misheard.]
[Then pinch?]
【Then Shen Mingli solemnly stated to your father that this was not a business negotiation, but a personal matter that he was serious about and would be responsible for for the rest of his life.】
Mo Keyu was in no mood to continue eating. He buried his head in his hands, feeling very anxious.
Reserved! Reserved!
I don’t know how long it was before Shen Mingli and Mo Zhengtian came back.
Mo Keyu felt a little embarrassed to look at Shen Mingli, and also embarrassed to look at Mo Zhengtian.
Shen Mingli said this to her father in person. He actually said this to his father in person!
Mo Zhengtian had a strange expression on his face, and his steps were unsteady as he walked in. It took him a long time to come to terms with what he had just said.
The eldest son of the Shen family is very outstanding, but he never thought that he also likes his own daughter?
No wonder Mo Keyu has been working so hard recently, just to keep up with the other party.
The Shen family is very good, and the Mo family is not bad either.
Mo Zhengtian looked at Shen Mingli, then at his daughter who was red as a ripe shrimp, and at Li Ru who had a sullen expression beside him, then something dawned on him.
Maybe this started a long time ago, and this time inviting them to dinner is just a simple meal!
Shen Mingli looked at Mo Keyu. His face looked like it was being roasted on a grill, red and hot.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" he asked softly.
"No, no." Mo Keyu denied it quickly and almost bit his tongue.
After a while, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she heard a small laugh, and then saw the other person's upturned mouth corners and curved eyebrows.
"Shen, Shen Mingli," Mo Keyu wanted to say something to him, "Thank you."
"You're welcome," he replied, "and you don't need to tell me again in the future."
Li Ru looked at the two of them from the side and felt quite emotional. At least there were no regrets between them.
"Meeting is fate. Since we are destined to meet, we should cherish each other and not let each other down," Li Ru said. Thinking of her youngest son, she suddenly felt a little worried. "Ming Li, I'm going to look for your brother. I'll leave this to you."
"good."
Mo Keyu didn't know how the night passed. She remembered that her father asked Shen Mingli many questions, and he answered them one by one, and looked at her from time to time.
Afterwards, Dad gradually relaxed and talked a lot with Shen Mingli. The more they talked, the happier he became.
She didn't expect Shen Mingli to be so popular with the elders. She was very slow in interpersonal communication, but he could still make the elders, whom she rarely saw, laugh.
Then, she and her father were sent back to the Mo residence.
When everyone was sitting at the dining table, they were chatting happily. Although Mo Keyu didn't say much because she was shy, she felt very happy at that moment.
Really happy.

Shen Mingwan asked someone for Qianqian's phone number and hesitated for a long time.
Back then, he didn't completely believe Xiao Qian, and didn't even understand why Xiao Qian broke up with him.
I didn't understand it until now.
If he had trusted me more back then... If he hadn't been so naive and held on tight...
After some hesitation, Shen Mingwan finally chose to dial the number.
It wasn't until the phone beeped for a long time that everything became completely quiet.
A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello?"
Shen Mingwan opened his mouth but did not speak for a long time.
"Hello?"
"flourishing!"
Shen Mingwan was scared. He was afraid that he would never be able to get through this call again.
It has been five years since they last saw each other. He has changed a lot in these five years.
Even his voice had changed, becoming deeper and deeper than before. He wasn't even sure if the other person could recognize his voice.
There was only silence on the other end of the line.
After several seconds, the other party's voice came:
"Tomorrow night, is that you?"
"Tomorrow night, is it you? Is it really you?"
The other party's voice also began to tremble.
"It's me." Shen Mingwan's voice was a little hoarse, and he even felt as if something was blocking his throat.
"Tomorrow night, it's really you. Tomorrow night, I have a lot to say to you. I was... I really feel sorry. I really want to find you to explain, but I'm really scared. Tomorrow night, I'm sorry."
"I once thought about looking for you to explain, but I was afraid. Sometimes I would look at your back from a distance and I didn't dare to go over to you. I thought you would be angry," the voice on the other end of the phone was even a little choked up, but even so, I still pretended to be strong. "I was too cowardly. Later, I went to look for you and found that you had gone abroad."
"Qianqian, don't apologize." Shen Mingwan said, his voice terribly hoarse, "I was wrong too, don't apologize..."
"Ming night, you are so nice, but..." The person on the other end of the phone seemed to take off his disguise and sobbed violently, "We have missed it... Ming night, I used to really like you, but, but... I am getting married next week."
Shen Mingwan's heart suddenly stopped. He finally understood what was blocking his throat. It was something called bitterness. When it came up, it was so painful.
His vision became blurred, and it seemed that something warm liquid was flowing across his cheek.
It turns out that if you miss it, you miss it.
At that moment, the connection between them was completely severed.
If I had been braver.
"Qianqian, then... I can, then, I wish you happiness."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Ming Wan. I really liked you at that time, but we can't be together anymore. If only I could make this call earlier. If only I could be braver.
"Tomorrow night, you are a very good person..."
Afterwards, both of them fell into a long silence, but neither of them hung up the phone.
Shen Mingwan closed his eyes and let the tears flow.

It was already midnight when Mo Keyu returned home. After washing up, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
At about a few o'clock in the morning, I dimly heard the special ringtone set for Shen Mingli.
The next morning when I woke up and looked at my phone, I saw a message from Shen Mingli.
—I can't tolerate anyone hurting you.
Mo Keyu was about to reply when her phone kept sending her messages about the Gu family. The internet was full of scandals about the Gu family.
There is news about the verification of more than 20 illegitimate children of the Gu family, as well as countless netizens' exclamations in the comment section.
"Netizens are still too naive. In fact, there are more than 30. If it weren't for Gu De's physical condition, there might be dozens more." Mo Keyu couldn't help but complain.
Gu Qun, the young master of the Gu family, was arrested, and the internet was flooded with photos of him in handcuffs, saying that he was involved in a murder case.
Afterwards, several illegitimate children jumped out to fight for the family property. This series of actions directly became a hot topic.
Nowadays, no one cares about who likes what dog, who likes what ice cream, who is fighting with whom in the entertainment news. In the face of the family disputes of the Gu family, all of them are grandsons.
Later, even the artist from the Gu family with the surname Gu became a hot topic.
Many fans left comments under their giegie posts:
—Brother, Gu’s family affairs should have nothing to do with you.
For the first time ever, the artist humbled himself and responded to his fans: It doesn’t matter.
—I knew my brother wouldn’t collapse.
Within a few minutes, another trending search came up: Shocking, an artist named Gu from the Gu family turned out to be a rotten cucumber!
Shocking! An artist named Gu’s child is already in primary school!
Fans are anxious.
—Brother, is that trending search true?
My brother was silent...
After eating melons for the whole morning, Mo Keyu finally realized how Shen Mingli got the evidence of Gu Qun's crime.
This at least requires getting inside the customer's home.
Now that Gu Qun's problem has been dealt with, her bodyguards should be able to be withdrawn.
Mo Keyu walked downstairs and found that there was one less car. The bodyguard captain saw her coming out and walked over: "Good morning, Miss Mo."
"Are you going to continue working for me these few days?" Mo Keyu asked. There was still a car full of bodyguards left here.
"All bodyguards have been cancelled. Mr. Shen is a little worried. Sorry, Miss Mo, if you mind, we will work with Mr. Shen..."
"Not really," Mo Keyu said hurriedly, "it's mainly because you guys have worked hard during this period, and I appreciate Shen Mingli's kindness."
"Okay, Miss Mo, to be honest, we don't find it hard to be with Miss Mo. President Shen also gave us a high salary and a first-class year-end bonus. We are very honored to be with Miss Mo."
The bodyguard captain said, open the car door for Mo Keyu.
Mo Keyu nodded to him politely.
Mo Keyu came to Baozi Entertainment and planned to merge Baozi Entertainment into the Mo Group.
The careers of artists have always been on the rise. With the Yan family leading the way in this circle, they have taken fewer detours.
Today Wu Xiaotian came to the company to take a break. When he saw his boss coming back, he was a little hesitant, as if he had something to say but couldn't open his mouth.
Mo Keyu briefly inquired about the agent's recent situation, and then looked at the schedules of the two artists.
"Boss." Wu Xiaotian came over with his head lowered, as if he had something to hide.
"What's wrong?"
Mo Keyu raised his head.
Maybe Wu Xiaotian dressed up a bit after coming to the city, and took some Mandarin training, so all his previous bad taste is gone.
He looks more like a boy who was born and raised in the city. He already has a good-looking face and a good figure. His temperament has amazed countless people.
"Boss, I've been in trouble recently."
Wu Xiaotian's voice was as soft as a mosquito's, and Mo Keyu needed a while to react.
