Mingdai was about to get into the car when Mo Tingchuan stopped her from entering.
"We're not divorced yet, what's wrong with having a meal together?"
Mo Tingchuan's expression was very unpleasant.
"Didn't you used to really want to go out to eat with me when I wasn't so busy?"
Mingdai was disgusted by these words.
"You said it yourself, it was in the past."
"Even if you want to eat with your third uncle, he doesn't have time for you anymore; he already has Fang Li."
"Think whatever you want."
Mingdai was too lazy to explain.
She herself felt very bad about it.
She didn't want to waste time here with Mo Tingchuan either.
"I have met Liu Mei."
Upon hearing Mo Tingchuan's words, Mingdai slowly narrowed her eyes.
In the restaurant.
From Mingdai's location, you can see the bustling streets.
Mo Tingchuan ordered all the dishes, but Mingdai had no appetite. Every time she saw him, she thought of how blind and heartless she had been over the past few years. She despised herself and wanted to kill Mo Tingchuan.
"Guess what Liu Mei told me?"
Mo Tingchuan cut the steak, one slice at a time, his sharp eyes fixed on Ming Dai, as if the knife in his hand was cutting Ming Dai herself.
Mingdai is completely innocent.
What are you trying to say?
Mo Tingchuan sneered, "Aren't you going to defend yourself?"
Mingdai picked up the champagne and took a sip; her throat felt dry.
"What did I do that I need to explain?"
Do I really have to say it?
"What kind of word games are you playing? How am I supposed to know if you don't tell me?"
There's nothing to be afraid of about Mingdai.
Anyway, Mo Tingchuan is a heartless person. Whether she does it or not, Mo Tingchuan will scheme and make things difficult for her.
Besides, she didn't get much money from him at all. On the contrary, he only needed a few months of planning to severely damage the Ming family.
"You knew all along that Qingying had ordered jewelry from Liu Mei, and you had also been in contact with Liu Mei privately on many occasions. You even encouraged Liu Mei to ask me for money."
Liu Mei wasn't a good person, so she naturally resented Ming Dai after being arrested.
"so what?"
Mingdai stared calmly at Mo Tingchuan.
"Did I encourage Mo Qingying to order the jewelry? If she doesn't have money, why is she putting on airs?"
Mo Tingchuan was shocked.
Is this something Mingdai would say?
Mingdai got up, not intending to eat anymore.
"Why don't you go eat with your little lover?"
I believe Qin Weiwei would be very happy to accompany Mo Tingchuan.
Mo Tingchuan took a deep breath, turned around, and caught up with Mingdai in a few steps.
He grabbed Mingdai's wrist tightly.
"Let's eat first and then talk about it."
His strength was so great that Mingdai's wrist hurt.
Mingdai loathed this about him.
That's too violent.
The restaurant was bustling with people, and the two of them made quite a commotion.
Mingdai was shy and afraid of being discovered by acquaintances.
She suppressed her anger and glared at Mo Tingchuan.
What exactly do you want to do?
She didn't believe he really just wanted to have a meal with her.
Mo Tingchuan forcefully pulled Mingdai back to her seat.
"We haven't eaten together in a long time."
Mo Tingchuan sat down opposite Ming Dai.
He was somewhat dazed, his heart filled with a mix of emotions.
Lately, he has been thinking a lot about the past, those details that he had intentionally or unintentionally ignored.
Love and not love are just too obvious.
People always wake up after they lose something.
Mo Tingchuan wasn't sure if he was sober, but he did feel pain from time to time about Mingdai no longer loving him.
Ming Dai fell silent after hearing Mo Tingchuan's words.
She glanced out the window.
Once upon a time, her only wish was to have a quiet meal together with Mo Tingchuan during his busy schedule.
She never excessively desired his affection; she knew he had a hard life and understood his difficulties.
She loves him.
She was willing to give her all for him, and she didn't care about anything else.
Although we can finally sit down together quietly now, things have changed.
Mingdai picked up her knife and fork, but couldn't eat.
After a moment of silence, Mo Tingchuan suddenly spoke with difficulty.
He said, "Mingdai, I still don't want to divorce you."
Regardless of the reason, Mo Tingchuan...
"As long as you promise me you won't get a divorce, I can leave some things open to negotiation."
Mingdai gripped her knife and fork tightly, knowing that Mo Tingchuan was giving her a hint.
She thought.
If they don't get divorced, will the investors in those projects not withdraw their funds, and will all the crises be resolved?
But she couldn't deceive herself.
She couldn't treat Mo Tingchuan with the same respect as a guest, nor could she completely ignore him.
What should we do about Qin Weiwei?
Mingdai looked at Mo Tingchuan.
What should we do about the child?
Mo Tingchuan had already considered this issue.
He doesn't love Qin Weiwei.
The warmth and softness of the jade are only temporary, and there will be more in the future, but for now, he only wants to stop Ming and Dai from being at odds.
"I will make her leave."
"The child must stay. If you don't want to raise him, then find someone else to raise him."
What a cruel heart.
"If Qin Weiwei heard what you said, how heartbroken she would be."
“She knew from the beginning that this would be the outcome, and I made it very clear to her that she didn’t care about anything and didn’t want anything.”
Mo Tingchuan completely absolved himself of any responsibility.
“I will give her a sum of money, enough for her to live a life of comfort and ease.”
Men are just that heartless.
Mingdai asked Mo Tingchuan sarcastically.
"You'll treat me like this in the future, won't you?"
"Won't."
Mo Tingchuan looked at Mingdai with what he thought was deep affection.
