Chapter 18: Give Me a Hint, Big Brother Ting

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He’s not letting me go upstairs?

He’s guarding against me just as if he’s guarding against a thief. He might as well not even let me enter his house.

Gu Li couldn’t help complaining, but she still smiled and asked the receptionist, “When did he give the order?”

“This afternoon.”

The receptionist answered truthfully.

This afternoon?

Gu Li frowned, unable to figure out how she had offended him.

She walked to the sofa in a corner of the lobby and called Mo Shiting.

The man didn’t answer and only replied her with a question mark. [?]

Very well. You’re a man of few words, right?

Gu Li took a deep breath and copied him. [??]

After waiting for a long time, he didn’t reply. Gu Li exploded in anger. [Mo Shiting, I’m at your company’s lobby. Why aren’t you letting me go up?]

She originally thought that he wouldn’t reply, but unexpectedly, he replied to her instantly. [Think about it yourself.]

What?

Think about it myself?

If I could think of the reason, would I still need to ask him?

Gu Li puffed up her cheeks and quickly typed on her phone. [Give me a hint, Big Brother Ting.]

At this moment, Mo Shiting was listening to the company’s executives report their work. His originally cold and handsome face suddenly had a hint of warmth on it when he saw the girl’s message which had the words, ‘Big Brother Ting’ on it.

He pursed his lips lightly and replied, “Wait downstairs.”

When Gu Li saw this message, she subconsciously glanced at the time. It was almost six in the evening. Is he asking me to wait for him to get off work?

That’s fine too. I have nothing else to do anyways.

Gu Li sat down and started playing games on her phone.

With that, she waited until eight in the evening.

After the meeting ended, Mo Shiting went down to the lobby. From afar, he saw the girl sitting with her legs crossed and her head lowered as she played with her phone.

The man’s gaze was fixed on her fair and straight legs, and his eyes darkened slightly.

The dress is too short.

Gu Li was having so much fun that she didn’t notice that someone was approaching her at all until he walked up to her and snatched her phone away.

“Hey, return it to me—”

Gu Li immediately jumped up. However, her feet went numb, and thus she staggered and fell forward.

Mo Shiting quickly grabbed her, but he used too much force and so he pulled her into his embrace.

Bang!

Her straight and pretty nose hit his chest hard, and it was so painful that tears fell out from Gu Li’s eyes.

Mo Shiting immediately let go of her. “Are you alright?”

That’s rare of him. This is the first time he ever showed concern for me throughout this period of time.

Gu Li was a little touched. Unfortunately, it only lasted for a second before he reached out his hand and pinched her nose. “It’s not broken.”

Gu Li shooed his hand away and glared at him with tears in her eyes. “My nose is completely natural. How can it be broken so easily?”

Completely natural?

Mo Shiting glanced at her. There is indeed no plastic surgeon that could have created such a beautiful face through plastic surgery.

She definitely wanted to enter the entertainment industry because of her beauty that could bewitch all the men.

At the thought that she had actually gone to attend a messy variety show recording behind his back, the glint in Mo Shiting’s eyes turned cold, “Gu Li!”

Gu Li was still rubbing her nose when she suddenly heard him call her name in a serious tone. She couldn’t help but straighten her back. “What?”

“You must be punished for violating the 101st Mo family rule!”

“What do you mean?”

Gu Li was dumbfounded.

What did I do? How did I violate the family rules? Why do they have so many family rules?

Mo Shiting didn’t explain and just simply raised his right hand.

The two bodyguards following behind him quickly stepped forward, grabbed Gu Li, and dragged her out.

Gu Li: “???”

When she regained her senses, she struggled with all her might.

“Let go of me!

“Mo Shiting, what exactly do you want?

“Mo Shiting—”

Fortunately, the company’s employees had already gotten off work and the lobby was empty. Otherwise, all of this would have definitely stirred up a commotion.

Mo Shiting ignored her. Gu Li screamed her lungs out, but it was futile. In the end, she could only let them drag her into the car.

Boohoo, if I had known earlier, I would have definitely escaped. I wouldn’t have foolishly sent myself to his doorstep and waited here for him for two hours!

Boohoo…
