Mr. Mo handed the gift to Mo Shu and said, "Here, take a look."
Mo Shu glanced at it casually and said, "It’s nice. I quite brand of chocolate."
Yu Chen felt very conflicly standing nearby.
Although this brand primarily sold chocolates, what was inside the box were flowers!
Exactly ten red roses.
Fearing that Young Master Yu would be unhappy, he dared not give the enduring nine roses, nor the eternal eleven roses.
Ten roses, which perfectly symbolized perfection.
But unexpectedly, Princess Mo didn’t even bother to open it, dismissing it with a single remark.
Changed in a way that was heartbreakingly sad!
Si Qiao, seeing her so indifferent, felt a heavy sink in his heart.
In the past, she would have opened gifts he brought with great enthusiasm, sweetly calling out his name while unwrapping them—’Brother Si Qiao,’ although a bit contrived, her attitude was at least very pleasant.
Now, she didn’t even want to pretend, just scowling and acting as if she despised the gift?
Who was she showing this disdainful face to?
In front of Grandpa Mo, was she trying to show her dissatisfaction with him?
Grandpa Mo also noticed Mo Shu’s lack of enthusiasm and did not see the ecstatic joy he expected, secretly admiring her composure.
Indeed she had grown up!
She could even pretend so convincingly!
He, as a grandfather, couldn’t expose her true face and merely asked, "How did things go with Yun Jing today?"
Mo Shu didn’t want to discuss this in front of Yu Siqiao and just replied casually, "It was okay."
Mr Mo, seeing this, felt it was not okay.
If it had been okay, she probably would have told him by now.
He sighed and said, "It just so happens Si Qiao is here..."
"Grandpa," Mo Shu quickly interrupted him, "I’m a bit tired, I’m going in."
"What’s the hurry," Grandpa Mo chided her with a glance, "it just so happens Si Qiao..."
"Won’t you even let your grandpa speak?" Yu Siqiao said coldly, his tone distant as he gave Mo Shu a cool look, then asked, "What does Grandpa Mo want to say?"
Mo Shu scoffed, "I’m talking to my grandpa, what’s it to an outsider like you?"
"Who’s interrupting, you or me?" Yu Siqiao’s eyes were sharp, "Grandpa Mo wants to talk to me, it was you who interrupted." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ⓝovelFire.net
Mo Shu snorted, "Grandpa was clearly talking to me, and you just had to butt in, making trouble for no reason. Are you twisting the facts now?"
"Enough," Mr. Mo helplessly interrupted them, "stop this pointless bickering."
Yu Siqiao kept a serious face and said, "I didn’t interrupt."
Why does this statement feel a bit off?
Mr. Mo laughed heartily, "Have a good talk with Shushu. It just so happens she arranged to meet your jewelry designer for dinner today."
Mo Shu closed her eyes and turned her head away, shouting, "Grandpa!"
Such a terrible team player!
Mr. Mo, however, was all smiles, stood up, and said, "Alright, you two have a good chat. This old man won’t disturb you anymore."
Saying so, he actually walked away.
Yu Siqiao crossed his legs, looked at her with a slight raise of his eyebrows and said in a half-smiling manner, "So, you arranged to have dinner with my designer today; what are you planning?"
