What else?
Mo Yunhao faltered. Besides a good family background and being pretty, he really could not think of what other good points Bai Youran had.
Jiang Hongying hurriedly added, “Youran is the daughter of a wealthy family. She has manners and is well brought up. She is gentle and gracious. Where would we find another girl like her? Old Master, surely you have no reason to disapprove?”
Old Master Mo glanced at Jiang Hongying. His glance was deep and stern.
“Your son earned a little money recently, so you think you can have your way in the Mo family, is that right?”
Jiang Hongying paused. Her expression grew ugly.
“N-no, why would you say that? I’m just very pleased with Youran. I panicked a little when you didn’t give your approval.”
Jiang Hongying lowered her head slightly. Mo Beihan was in dire straits, and her son had suddenly become successful. She was overjoyed to have won this round.
After all these years, she could finally hold her head up high. As a result, she had been rather arrogant of late!
Old Master Mo was very old now, and he would not live much longer. Jiang Hongying felt that soon, the power in the Mo family would shift.
Since Mo Beihan had failed, the Mo family was only left with her son!
How could she not be arrogant?
One might say that Jiang Hongying currently believed that the future of the Mo family belonged to her son.
Of course Old Master Mo could guess Jiang Hongying’s thoughts.
He grunted coldly. “Since you don’t think that you’re beyond my control, shut up. I didn’t ask you!”
Jiang Hongying turned pale and sat down without a word.
Old Master Mo turned his attention back to Mo Yunhao. “Yunhao, you must think this through carefully. You are the Mo family’s grandson, and you’ve grown up in the Mo family all these years. You know the various major families in the capital. Let me ask you one more time. Do you really want to marry Bai Youran?”
Mo Yunhao did not consider the question at all. He said with certainty, “Of course, Grandfather. I really like Youran. I definitely want to marry her!”
Old Master Mo looked at Mo Yunhao’s determined expression. He was completely disappointed!
This was also his grandson. Even though he had fallen short, even though he had a mother like Jiang Hongying, he had never really treated this child as an outsider.
But he was utterly disappointed with Mo Yunhao’s performance.
Mo Yunhao was not a boy anymore. He had matured long ago, and it was time he established his own family.
The Mo family had been in the capital for so many years but had practically no dealings with the Bai family. It was true that they knew each other, but the two families did not interact. They only exchanged some superficial pleasantries.
In fact, they were privately at odds.
Did Mo Yunhao not even know this at his age?
Now he actually wanted to marry Bai Youran. What was he thinking?
The truth was that he desired the Bai family’s power and felt that if he married Bai Youran, he could better suppress Mo Beihan. He was just greedy.
Old Master Mo sighed. Forget it!
Since he could not control him, he would not bother trying!
Although Mo Beihan had not mentioned certain things, Old Master Mo was well aware of them.
Mo Beihan’s business empire was so large. And Mo Yunhao had recently made a fortune. Old Master Mo was certain that something was going on behind the scenes.
He was a little grateful, and also a little grieved!
They were all grandsons of the Mo family. He hoped that they would love and respect each other as brothers and get along well. But this was clearly impossible.
Mo Beihan was a truly talented man. For him to act against Mo Yunhao at this time proved that he was showing his grandfather respect. That was a good thing!
