Chapter 2242: Chapter 46: Each According to Their Own Ability
Mo family
Mo Ziye put away his phone and turned to look at Ye Zhan beside him.
“What did you just say?”
While Ye Zhan was talking, he was somewhat distracted watching the goldfish in the pond, and didn’t catch what he said. Qin Qingqing’s call came in at the same time.
He couldn’t be bothered to think about what was said earlier.
His long eyes glanced indifferently at Ye Zhan’s cold brows.
Ye Zhan flicked off the ash from his cigarette, his voice as aloof as the late autumn, “You should persuade Qingqing to return to the Imperial City, instead of wasting her youth here.”
“Ye Zhan, aren’t you overestimating yourself?”
Mo Ziye sneered.
A thin layer of coldness gathered in his eyes as he looked at Ye Zhan, “What makes you think that I would persuade Qingqing to go back to the Imperial City?”
“Because you have a girlfriend. You can’t give her happiness, yet you keep her by your side, watching you flaunt your love with another woman.”
Ye Zhan stood up, matching Mo Ziye’s height, with similar coldness in the air, his brows icy.
There was even anger in his eyes, different from Mo Ziye’s mockery, “Mo Ziye, even if you’ve been good to Qingqing for over a decade, you can’t torment her like this. You’ve already broken up; you should let her go.”
“She chose to stay herself; how is that my tormenting her?”
Mo Ziye looked at Ye Zhan’s anger indifferently, “To take it a step further, even if I truly am tormenting her, it’s none of your business. If you have the ability, go ahead and take her away. If you can’t, then don’t tell me what to do.”
No matter if he and Qin Qingqing end up tormenting each other for a lifetime, it has nothing to do with Ye Zhan, an outsider.
He has no right to judge.
Mo Ziye’s aura grew colder.
The air grew stagnant in the standoff between the two men, the temperature quickly dropping to zero.
After a long while, Ye Zhan suddenly laughed.
A reckless and mocking laugh, “Don’t worry, I will definitely take Qingqing away. It’s all about ability, right? I will make you admit it convincingly.”
“Don’t forget what you promised me.”
Mo Ziye directly changed the subject, ignoring his provocation.
If Ye Zhan can take Qin Qingqing away, there’s nothing he wouldn’t accept.
Someone who can be taken away isn’t his.
She had already left once four years ago.
Four years later, if she leaves again… Mo Ziye’s fingers gently curled at his side, ignoring the tightness in his chest.
Ye Zhan quickly followed his train of thought, nodding, “I’ll accomplish what I promised. If the Shi Family does have problems, I’ll definitely collect the evidence.”
At this point, his voice paused slightly, then said coldly, “You should also handle that Shi Xi properly. If she bothers Qingqing again, I won’t be polite to her.”
Mo Ziye raised an eyebrow, “If you have the ability, go ahead and wipe her out.”
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the direction of the living room.
Ignoring Ye Zhan’s puzzled expression.
Did he mean, he wouldn’t stop anyone from standing up for Qin Qingqing?
Ye Zhan watched Mo Ziye walk away, throwing the cigarette butt into the trash can a few steps away.
A dark gleam flashed in his eyes, Mo Ziye towards Shi Xi…
——
In the late autumn season, at five thirty in the morning, it was still dark.
Qin Qingqing woke up only because she set an alarm.
After washing up and going downstairs, she felt a bit surprised to see three grown men sitting on the sofa in the living room.
“You all got up so early?”
Tang Jinchen and Ye Zhan sat on the same sofa, while Mo Ziye sat alone on another one, all three were looking at their phones.
When they heard her footsteps on the way down, Mo Ziye was the first to look up at her, his calm voice meeting her surprised gaze, “Didn’t you arrange to meet Shi Xi at six? How could we not come earlier?”
As he finished speaking, footsteps came again from the hallway.
The next second, Momo’s voice rang out, “Qingqing, good morning, am I not late?”
“Sister Momo?”
“I was the one who told Momo.”
Mo Ziye looked at the approaching Momo and explained with a calm tone, “I was afraid you might soften up.”
Momo’s expression changed slightly, looking at Mo Ziye, “Ziye, I don’t like how that sounds, are you saying Qingqing might soften up, and I’m just a cold-hearted person?”
Is this person really her brother?
Qin Qingqing’s mouth twitched a bit, she stepped forward and grabbed Momo’s hand, smiling sweetly, “Sister Momo, don’t be mad, Brother Ziyi thinks I’m useless, timid and afraid of trouble, that’s why he asked you to come bolster my courage.”
“I know he’s not.”
Momo made a dissatisfied hum, pursed her lips, and advised, “Qingqing, since Ziye sees me as a venomous woman, you better not let me down later. However she bullies you, you should repay her doubly, understand?”
“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t forgive her easily, even if she’s Brother Ziyi’s girlfriend, it’s no use, unless you say it’s okay.”
Qin Qingqing amused Momo with her words, her unhappiness dissipated, her laughter lighting up her refined and pretty features, “Haha, Qingqing, you’re the best.”
After Momo and Qin Qingqing sat on the sofa, Momo then said to Ye Zhan and Tang Jinchen, “When I came here just now, my dad asked me to tell you that Uncle Qing Feng will be coming to take you to the airport later.”
“There’s no need to bother…”
Tang Jinchen’s words were interrupted by Momo, “If you don’t want that, let my dad know, I’m just telling you what I was told.”
“Then we thank Uncle Mo in advance.”
Ye Zhan spoke politely and warmly.
During his stay at the Mo Family, even though there wasn’t much time spent with Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran, he truly respected them.
He couldn’t ignore their kindness.
With five minutes till six, Mo Ziye’s phone began to ring.
In the quiet living room, it was distinct and loud.
Several pairs of eyes simultaneously looked toward his phone, Mo Ziye raised an eyebrow slightly and responded casually, “Hello.”
“Ziye, I’m already at the Qin Family. Do you want to come over?”
Shi Xi’s gentle voice was heard.
“Come on in, I’m here.”
Mo Ziye said, and then hung up the phone.
Not caring if Shi Xi had more to say.
Two minutes later, the servant led Shi Xi into the living room.
Today she wore gentle and peaceful attire, compatible with her pure style, her gentle and elegant appearance most inclined to inspire pity in men.
Qin Qingqing’s eyes narrowed.
Shi Xi is smart.
However, she still miscalculated; Qin Qingqing isn’t one to tenderly cherish beauty.
Before Shi Xi could approach, Qin Qingqing spoke mockingly, “I heard from Brother Ziyi that Miss Shi insists on apologizing to me. Initially, I didn’t believe it. But Miss Shi really came, wondering how do you plan to apologize? Is it by kneeling down or asking me to go home?”
A few steps away, Shi Xi’s face turned slightly pale, where her initially gentle gaze at Mo Ziye quickly gathered a layer of moisture, her appearance seemed pitiful, evoking sympathy.
If it were another man, he wouldn’t have let her apologize; he might have felt sorry enough to lead her away.
However, Mo Ziye on the sofa remained indifferent.
He didn’t so much as glance in Shi Xi’s direction.
His aura grew cold and oppressive with Qin Qingqing’s words, an invisible pressure pressing toward Shi Xi, her heart sank at the sight.
With hands clenched into fists, she walked up to Qin Qingqing.
Her gaze swept over the others on the sofa, she pursed her lips, her voice softly self-deprecating, yet incredibly sincere, “Miss Qin, I’m sorry, that day I was incited by vile people and acted impulsively by going to your office, but at first, I just wanted to come and chat with you…”
Implies that had it not been for the confrontation, she was there to make friends, not to humiliate her.
