"What ’Master Mo’ has scared you so much?" the young woman said discontentedly, her expression suddenly changing, "Mo... Master Mo!"
Could it be that her own husband was referring to that Master Mo! Only that person dared to be called Master Mo, and she had actually dared to provoke Master Mo!
The young woman raised her head, shivering in fear, "Mo, Master Mo, I’m sorry, did I speak too loudly and bother you? I will definitely speak more softly in the future."
Where had she offended Master Mo to be thrown so far away? Could it be because she spoke a little too loudly and upset Master Mo?!
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly, "Master Mo, please forgive my wife. She didn’t mean to, and I will properly discipline her when we get back."
Mo Yunchen’s gaze was dark and icy, "You did not offend me, but you did offend my wife!"
The middle-aged man wiped the sweat from his forehead despite the cold winter, "Master Mo, you might be misunderstanding something; we did not provoke Madam Mo."
He had not even seen the shadow of Madam Mo, so how could he possibly have provoked her?
Rumors had been spreading that Madam Mo’s face was disfigured, so every time he went out, he was careful to watch out for women with disfigured faces, afraid of provoking someone he shouldn’t. Now, who in Jingdu City didn’t know that it was okay to provoke anyone except for the person dear to Master Mo’s heart, Madam Mo—Qin Qin.
"Yes, yes, we were just talking to this woman..."
The young woman raised her head and pointed at Qin Qin standing behind her. Her face changed suddenly, and she turned incredulously to look at Qin Qin, who gazed back with a smile not quite a smile.
Her pointing hand trembled suddenly, and her whole body began to shake.
The middle-aged man also looked over and nearly fainted. Could it be... who on earth spread the rumor that Madam Mo was disfigured? She was clearly a beauty capable of toppling empires. He was finished; he was surely done for, losing his job was the least of his concerns now that he had offended Madam Mo, whom everyone feared to provoke.
Mo Yunchen stepped past the two kneeling people, walked forward, and wrapped his arm around Qin Qin’s waist in a possessive gesture.
"Who said my wife was picking out clothes for some other men?"
Mo Yunchen’s voice was low, yet it carried an intimidating chill.
The young woman was so frightened that she lay prostrate on the ground, "Master Mo, I was wrong, I didn’t know anything; Madam Mo, I’m sorry, Madam Mo, please forgive me; it was my fault for being ignorant. Please be magnanimous and forgive me."
The young woman wanted to rush forward and cling to Qin Qin’s legs but was kicked away by Mo Yunchen.
Clutching her kicked shoulder, the young woman pleaded for mercy again.
The middle-aged man, trembling and sweating, wanted to beg for mercy for his wife but did not dare to speak.
He looked up and met Mo Yunchen’s piercing eyes, halting his breath, "Mo... Master Mo!"
Mo Yunchen cruelly curved his lips, "My wife is for my eyes only. As for what you did just now... "
Before Mo Yunchen could finish, the middle-aged man suddenly burst into tears, "Master Mo, I was blinded by foolishness; please spare me, I won’t dare to do it again."
"You won’t dare again?!"
A cold light flashed in the depths of Mo Yunchen’s eyes as he forcefully stepped on the man’s shoulder, causing a cracking sound as it broke.
The middle-aged man bore the pain, sweat from his forehead dripping continuously; he didn’t dare to utter a sound of agony.
As the two were taken away, Mo Yunchen held Qin Qin close and softly said, "Wife, sorry for the trouble you’ve been through!"
Qin Qin shook her head, linking her arm with Mo Yunchen’s, "You stood up for me, didn’t you? Husband, you are so good."
Mo Yunchen nodded in satisfaction, his mood very good after being praised by his wife.
"The clothes look good!"
Qin Qin glanced at the clothes Mo Yunchen was wearing – his strong upper body clad in a white sweater as a base layer with a black overcoat she had chosen. It accentuated Mo Yunchen’s vitality, with his handsome features being highlighted by the simple cut of the black coat, making him look even more dashing and perfect. Her husband was handsome indeed!
"Is it the person or the clothes that look good?"
Hearing what she had said, Mo Yunchen, slightly displeased, leaned close to her ear and spoke in a deep voice. Qin Qin laughed and pushed him away, "Good, it’s you who look good. Because you look good, the clothes look good, too. Are you satisfied now?"
Mo Yunchen’s lips curved slightly, barely satisfied.
The sales associate nearby watched enviously as the legendary Master Mo and Madam Mo affectionately displayed their love. They were fortunate to witness such a scene today, truly a blissful sight – indeed, Master Mo and Madam Mo’s relationship was as strong as people said.
"Please pack them up for me!"
