Chapter 492. Why not consider Xiao Lingchen (third watch)?

~7 min read 1,314 words

"Miss Mo, I’ll accept your congratulations." Ye Jiuliang, with his hands in his pockets, glanced at her with disdain, "If there’s nothing else, I won’t see you out."

Mo Su nodded with a smile.

The moment she turned around, the smile on her face vanished without a trace, and a frightening coldness swept through her eyes.

What a Ye Jiuliang, her sharp wit had certainly impressed her.

Watching Mo Su’s car leave the Li Mansion, Ye Jiuliang curled his lips into a smile.

Lately, he had met quite a few people with the surname Mo.

First, there was a Mo Chen, and now there was a Mo Su.

The same brown eyes, the same blond hair, even their facial features bore a certain resemblance.

If these two claimed to be unrelated, it would be too much of a coincidence.

Ye Jiuliang got back into his car and drove away.

On the road, Old Master Li brought up the background of Mo Su.

"Xiaojiu, that woman named Mo Su claims to be the heiress of the Tengyue Group."

These days, he had also realized that the little girl from the Ye Family was not as simple as she appeared on the surface. The attitude of people like Wei Bei towards her was indication enough.

"Tengyue Group?"

Ye Jiuliang’s eyes darkened slightly, quite a significant background indeed.

"I understand, there’s no need to worry about it, I’ll handle it."

Her assured tone naturally inspired trust, and Old Master Li stroked his grizzled beard.

"By the way, Xiaojiu, did you tell your grandfather about you and Mohan getting your marriage certificate?"

"Not yet," she admitted honestly.

Old Master Li was surprised that she had not yet told the Ye Family. "You don’t plan to tell them?"

"We’ll see. After today, everyone who should know will find out," Ye Jiuliang spoke nonchalantly.

Realizing belatedly, Old Master Li asked, "Then where did you get the household registration book from?"

If Old Master Ye didn’t know she was getting a marriage certificate, then who gave her the household registration book?

She said, "I stole it."

"..."

It seemed he had thought too simply. If Old Master Ye discovered the household registration book missing, he would probably be furious.

**

The temporarily suppressed news exploded, immediately becoming a hot search topic.

The rumors that had circulated for just a day were cleared, Li Mochan did not have amnesia. With photo evidence, the video the reporters took yesterday in front of the MK Group’s entrance silenced those gossiping voices.

So much for a broken romance, the couple in question was sweeter than anyone else.

A whole bunch of girls expressed their desire to have candied haws too, wanting their own version of ’Fifth Master’.

As if the surprise wasn’t big enough, a second wave of relationship news hit hard, with people capturing Li Mochan and Ye Jiuliang at the marriage registration office, claiming the two had obtained their marriage certificate today.

In an instant, many were envious, and some unconvinced people insisted that without the confirmation from the parties involved, the marriage was just a baseless rumor.

Mo Su also saw the news, her face darkening.

The narrow carriage suddenly felt oppressive, making it somewhat difficult to breathe.

Fingertips painted with red nail polish dug into the palm, but Mo Su didn’t feel the pain.

What a move by Ye Jiuliang, it seems she had underestimated her.

Mo Su’s voice was cold as she spoke, "After we go back, call Qian Mian and ask if that medicine of his has any effect."

Since Ye Jiuliang had beaten her to the punch and gotten married first, she would have to make other plans.

Mengzhu nodded, "Miss, Ye Jiuliang and Li Mochan have already gotten married and registered. What do you plan to do next?"

"What does marriage matter, it’s just a piece of paper." Mo Su sneered contemptuously, "Only Ye Jiuliang would get carried away by such trivial passions and affections."

Love was the most elusive and contemptible thing in the world to her. Mo Su didn’t need love; her goal was to make Tengyue Group the world’s number one financial empire, the undisputed King of the commercial kingdom.

Mengzhu pondered for a moment before asking, "Miss, I’ve reviewed the information of the various noble families in the capital. Xiao Lingchen of the Xiao Family isn’t bad either, why don’t you consider him?"

"Xiao Lingchen’s qualifications are indeed not bad," Mo Su said as she twirled the ring on her finger, her eyes brimming with mocking laughter, "But don’t forget his status. Li Mochan is different. No matter how you look at it, he is more suitable for a marriage alliance with our Mo Family."

For her, marriage could also become a bargaining chip to achieve her goals.

...

Just as the old master Li had anticipated, upon hearing about Ye Jiuliang and Li Mochan’s marriage registration, he immediately went to search the study for the household register.

Seeing the empty drawer, he was so angry that he nearly had a heart attack.

The damn girl, she actually stole it when he wouldn’t give it.

That was the ’minor thing’ she talked about; even marriage registration was considered minor, deciding on such an important matter without a word, it infuriated him.

"Master, don’t be angry. How about making a call to have Miss Jiuliang come back and ask?" Aren asked cautiously as he watched the person pacing back and forth in front of him.

"What is there to ask, the household register has been stolen by her, what’s done is done, there’s nothing left to ask," the old master Ye exploded in rage.

Aren lowered his head, looking innocent.

The more he thought about it, the angrier the old master Ye became, and he strode out, "Prepare the car for me, I need to go to Mo Garden."

He was determined to confront that damned girl Ye Jiuliang and ask her who allowed her to make such a hasty decision about something as important as marriage.

Aren wanted to persuade him but couldn’t find the words, so he hurried after him.

Going to Mo Garden would surely lead to a confrontation.

"Mom, grandpa is storming out furiously, where is he off to?" Ye Xin came back from shopping just in time to see old master Ye leaving.

"He’s going to Mo Garden to find Ye Jiuliang," Xiang Zhen shook her head. "Haven’t you heard the news that’s been going around outside?"

Ye Xin asked, "Are you talking about the news that Ye Jiuliang and Li Mochan have registered their marriage?"

Xiang Zhen nodded, "The news is everywhere, and the old master has found out too. It is said that Ye Jiuliang stole the household register from the old master’s study, which infuriated him."

"Stole the household register?" Ye Xin was surprised, and then she said sharply, "Isn’t Ye Jiuliang’s audacity a bit too much? She steals the household register this time, what does she plan to steal next?"

"Alright, these matters don’t concern you. When your grandfather comes back, don’t be a busybody either," Xiang Zhen cautioned.

"But what Ye Jiuliang did was really excessive," Ye Xin complained dissatisfiedly.

"Mom, is it true that Li Wuye has amnesia? Is the news spreading outside true to any extent?"

"Whether it’s true or not, I don’t know, but the matter of Ye Jiuliang and Li Mochan getting their marriage certificate is set in stone. Regardless of whether Li Mochan has amnesia or not, you should not provoke Ye Jiuliang. Listen to me and don’t get into trouble," knowing her impulsive nature, Xiang Zhen reminded her worriedly.

Ye Xin huffed and replied noncommittally, "I know."

If Li Mochan had amnesia, Ye Jiuliang’s strong backing would become unstable, and it would be much easier to trip her up than before. Ye Xin’s scheming mind began to stir.
