Bai Jinyan’s complexion was pale, and his footsteps wavered as he retreated backward.
Gu Qing, standing to the side, grasped Bai Jinyan’s hand. He withdrew his hand, leaving Gu Qing’s hand hanging in mid-air.
"Jinyan, it’s not like that, she’s talking nonsense," Gu Qing tried to explain. Bai Jinyan closed his eyes, his head ached slightly, and fleeting images flashed by. He tried to grasp them but could not.
"It’s you who’s talking nonsense, all nonsense, get out, just get out!" Gu Qing saw Bai Jinyan was ignoring her, in apparent agony, and she yelled toward Qin Qin.
"Who dares to tell my fiancée to get out?!" A deep and sultry voice rang out, and two middle-aged men and women walked in respectfully, with Mo Tang and Mo Sheng following closely behind.
Mo Tang and Mo Sheng saw Qin Qin and nodded to her with smiles.
"Master Mo, your presence at the Bai Family truly graces us," Bai Jinyan’s father said with a smile as he walked beside Mo Yunchen.
Mo Yunchen ignored the fawning of Bai Jinyan’s parents and strode forward towards Qin Qin.
Qin Qin stood still, her expression slightly excited, watching him come toward her.
Mo Yunchen stopped at Qin Qin’s location, ignoring the shock and astonishment of those around him, and took Qin Qin’s right hand to hold her tightly in his embrace.
"How did you get here?" She had planned to deal with the matter and then return, never expecting Mo Yunchen would actually come from Jingdu City.
Mo Yunchen held Qin Qin, his face darkened, "Why didn’t you call? Do you know how worried I was?"
Heaven knows how he spent the previous night searching incessantly without any word from her. Neither the Mo Clan nor the Qin Gang had rested, and he had practically combed the entire Jingdu City. Later, he had someone search in Jin City, and as soon as she was spotted, he hastily made his way to Jin City at the greatest speed.
He never would have guessed that the little ungrateful girl wouldn’t contact him; instead, she had arrived at the Bai Family? He could only notify the Bai Family and make his way here.
"I’m sorry, my phone must have fallen out at some point, so I couldn’t contact you," Qin Qin said with guilt, pushing away Mo Yunchen to look into the darkness of his eyes, "Did you not sleep at all last night?"
Such dark circles under his eyes, and the scent of dust on him, were these the same clothes as yesterday’s? Him, a man so particular and seriously germophobic, was actually wearing the same clothes for two days? Was it all because of her?
"Yes, I was worried about you!" He worried the whole night searching outside and never returned home.
"I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!" Qin Qin kept repeating her apologies. Mo Yunchen’s phone number was so easy to remember, yet she had never thought to memorize it. This incident served as a lesson for her; she must remember his number from now on.
Mr. and Mrs. Bai stood to the side, shocked by the scene before them. Wasn’t the Master Mo of Jingdu City known for his ruthless coldness? Could they have truly mistook the man who was showing such deep affection for a girl?
Bai Jinyan, on the other hand, had not expected that Qin Qin, who came here, would actually be the fiancée of Master Mo of Jingdu City.
Gu Qing turned pale. Seated in her wheelchair, she shifted uncomfortably. She had heard of Mo Yunchen—Master Mo of Jingdu City, notorious for his cruelty and heartlessness.
And she had just been shouting at his fiancée.
After the two finished expressing their feelings, Mo Yunchen turned his head to look at Gu Qing, his slender phoenix eyes cold and menacing, "Was it you who told my fiancée to leave?"
Mr. and Mrs. Bai’s faces changed, and they stepped forward, "Qinger, what’s the matter? Apologize to the young miss right away."
Having offended the fiancée of Master Mo, they couldn’t protect her anymore.
Gu Qing bit her lower lip, looking toward Qin Qin, "I’m sorry, Miss Qin, I was too agitated just now."
Qin Qin did not look at Gu Qing but spoke to Mo Yunchen at her side, "Let’s go; we’re heading back."
Mo Yunchen nodded and was ready to leave with Qin Qin in his arms.
Bai Jinyan, clutching his head with a mournful gaze, looked towards Qin Qin, "Miss Qin, could you take me to see Qianqian? I want to see her."
Qin Qin stopped in her tracks, without turning her head, she said, "She doesn’t want to see you."
Pain flickered in Bai Jinyan’s eyes, "Please, Miss Qin, let me see Qianqian, I’m begging you."
Just now, scenes of him and Yu Qianqian spending time together kept surfacing in his mind—so light-hearted and joyful, an experience he had never had with Gu Qing, and in that moment, he realized that the reason for his recent abnormal behavior was because of Qianqian, because he loved her. He loved Yu Qianqian, and his feelings towards Gu Qing were only out of a sense of duty. Now that Gu Qing’s legs could be healed, and once again it was Yu Qianqian who saved him, he could no longer ignore the feelings deep in his heart.
