Chapter 71: Mo Chi Apologizes

“Why did you run away from home for no reason?” Mo Chi asked.

However, Qin Ran didn’t answer. She just sat at the dining table and ate the snail noodles.

Mo Chi could only stand up and come to her side. As soon as he approached, he frowned at the smell that assaulted his face. What was this lass eating?

“If you think it doesn’t smell good, you don’t have to force yourself to stay at my house.” After Qin Ran finished speaking, she picked up another piece of noodle and stuffed it into her mouth.

Upon hearing this, Mo Chi’s frown deepened. Why was this lass so angry?

“What’s wrong? Don’t you want to sleep in the master bedroom?” It was indeed him who had instructed Butler Zhang to move Qin Ran’s things to the master bedroom. After all, he couldn’t live a life where he could only watch and not eat after marrying such a beautiful woman.

Qin Ran was still focused on eating her noodles.

“I just thought that if Grandpa comes to the residence one day and sees the two of us separated, it will definitely not be good for his health.” Using Grandpa as a shield should be useful.

Unexpectedly, when Qin Ran heard this, she put down her chopsticks and took a big gulp of soda to wash the food in her mouth. She stood up and said with a serious expression, “Mr. Mo, I don’t know how bad Grandpa’s body was. I don’t know how many more changes I have to make for Grandpa. However, I want to say that because the child is gone, we should get a divorce and never have anything to do with each other again. However, It’s my affection for you that I’m willing to compromise and continue to be a fake couple with you. You must not treat this as my obligation.”

Before this moment, Mo Chi had always treated Qin Ran as a child. The way he doted on her was a little similar to doting on his daughter. Suddenly, his daughter talked to him about obligations and feelings. He was a little stunned.

However, these words were stuck in Qin Ran’s heart for a long time. Since she had started, she would say them all. “Mr. Mo, is it really reasonable for you to let the butler enter my room and move my things without my permission? I’m not your doll, I can’t be placed wherever I want. I’m an independent person. I also have my privacy and secrets. Have you really considered my feelings when you do this?”

“I was wrong.” Mo Chi, who had reacted, chose to apologize immediately.

“Also, you always use Grandpa’s body as an excuse to make me do things that I don’t like. Forgive me for not being able to accept it. Of course, I’m also very grateful for your help previously, but this doesn’t mean that you can use it as a bargaining chip to ask me.” Qin Ran ignored Mo Chi’s apology and continued.

“Alright, alright, alright. It’s all my fault. I was too careless and rash.” Everyone knew that the chairman of Tian Mo Corporation was cautious, calm, and knew his limits. Who would have thought that there would be times when he was rash and careless?

Qin Ran remained silent, her pretty face tense.

“I’ll definitely remember everything you said just now. Don’t be angry.” Mo Chi held Qin Ran’s shoulders with both hands and apologized sincerely. Previously, there was no such thing as bowing his head in his dictionary. Now, he had broken the rules again and again for this lass. Who asked him to like her? He was truly helpless.

“You must remember!” Qin Ran reiterated.

“Okay, okay.”

If she had something to say, she would say it directly. If she could resolve it, she would. If she couldn’t, she would part ways. This had always been Qin Ran’s personality. Therefore, as long as Mo Chi didn’t interfere with her privacy in the future, she was willing to continue living in the Mo Residence and stabilize Old Master Mo.

“Then let’s go home now?” Mo Chi saw that the lass’s expression had turned from gloomy to cloudy and chose the right time to say.

“After I finish eating the snail noodles.”

Well…

That was fine too. If he could persuade Qin Ran to go home, it’s okay if he waited a little longer. Even if every minute and second of waiting was mixed with a taste that Mo Chi could not accept.

After eating and drinking her fill, the two of them returned to the Mo Residence. Qin Ran was in a good mood when she saw that everything had returned to its original place. She took a shower and went to sleep comfortably.

The next morning, Qin Ran, who was still sleeping, was woken up by the sound of her phone ringing.

“Who is this? It’s disturbing my sleep!” Qin Ran muttered as she reluctantly placed the phone to her ear.

“Qin Ran!” A harsh voice came from the phone. “How can you go back on your word!”

It was Mrs. Qin, Xing Li.

“You clearly promised not to pursue Zhang Lan’s responsibility yesterday. Why is there a new situation online today?!” Mrs. Qin continued to bombard her with questions.
