But she just couldn’t think of any good ways to stop her at the moment, so all she could do was to seek help from Liu Zhi with a sob in her voice, "Mom, what should I do now?"
Was she really going to just watch helplessly as the man she liked and the coveted Mrs. Li position was snatched away by Tong Mo?
Liu Zhi patted her shoulder affectionately, speaking with the confidence of a winner, "Don’t worry, Mommy has already arranged everything."
As she spoke, a glint of malice flashed in her eyes, as if she were planning something sinister.
"Mom, what arrangements did you make?" Tong Nian became curious upon hearing this.
But Liu Zhi didn’t tell her, simply stroking her head and saying, "Don’t worry about it, Mommy has ways to prevent those two from getting married for now."
Upon hearing this, Tong Nian immediately felt relieved, even the look she gave Li Zijue was full of a winner’s confidence.
Tong Mo, on the other hand, was completely immersed in happiness, utterly unaware of the other party’s scheming.
"The flight is in the evening, let’s go now." Li Zijue, fearing that delay would bring trouble, was eager to whisk the young lady away overseas to register their marriage immediately.
Tong Mo couldn’t help scratching her head, suddenly feeling hesitant, "Aren’t we moving too fast?"
"Not fast!" Li Zijue, fearing her regret, looked at her anxiously and worriedly.
That look suddenly made Tong Mo feel as if she were a heartless woman who abandoned husband and child.
She quickly averted her gaze, refusing to make eye contact with him.
"Don’t forget, you’ve already accepted my proposal. Could it be that you want to back out?" The man’s expression suddenly became even more aggrieved.
Tong Mo was embarrassed, "I just think we should get to know each other a little deeper before considering marriage?"
After all, marriage is no trivial matter; one can’t just register so casually.
"You want to understand deeper?" Li Zijue’s slender eyes suddenly narrowed, gleaming with profound meaning.
Tong Mo immediately understood that the man had misunderstood.
She rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, "Don’t think nonsense, the deeper understanding I’m talking about isn’t what you’re thinking."
"Then what is it?" Li Zijue pretended not to understand.
"Stop playing dumb!" Tong Mo rolled her eyes at him again.
"Momo... let’s go get the certificate, look at me, I’m not getting any younger. Could you really bear to see me at this age without a wife?" Li Zijue wrapped his arms around the young girl’s slender waist from behind, his chin resting on her head as he spoke, his tone full of grievance.
Tong Mo’s heart instantly softened.
She had always been , responsive to kindness but resistant to force.
If someone was tough with her, she would be even tougher, but if someone was gentle, she would soften.
In the end, Tong Mo agreed.
"But you have to treat me well!" Tong Mo added.
Li Zijue asserted firmly.
After a sweet smile, Tong Mo took the initiative to take his hand and head outside, "So what are we waiting for, let’s catch the plane."
After an indulgent smile at her, Li Zijue took her hand instead and headed towards the door.
On the way to the airport, Tong Mo’s heart thumped wildly as if a little deer was running amok inside.
She took several deep breaths to calm down and then quickly pulled out her phone to share the good news with her best friend Mengmeng.
Tong Mo: [Chun Mo, your sister is getting married!]
