Chapter 23: Doting on Gu Li

“Okay, go ahead then.”

Thinking that his progress with Gu Li was very fast, Old Master Mo looked at him much more kindly.

Mo Shiting nodded slightly. After taking two steps, he turned around and said, “She didn’t sleep enough last night. You should come look for her later.”

“Okay. Hurry up and go.”

Old Master Mo waved his hand impatiently.

Am I such a mean person?

Little Pear can sleep as long as she likes. I won’t disturb her.

Hmph!

…

“Is anyone there?

“Help—

“Mo Shiting—”

She shouted until her throat was sore, but there was still no movement outside the room at all. Gu Li could only give up on asking for help and start to rely on herself.

Of course, she had no idea that Old Master Mo, the only person who could save her, had just been tricked to leave by that scheming man.

In order to untie the knot that bound her, she kept rolling around on the bed like a fat worm.

Unfortunately, a certain someone had tied a dead knot, and both of her hands were under the blanket. So no matter how she struggled, it didn’t work.

In the end, she slowly got out of bed, put her feet together, and jumped towards the door.

As she passed by the bathroom, she suddenly remembered that Mo Shiting had drawn something on her face. Thus she hurriedly jumped into the bathroom to look in the mirror.

She wouldn’t have known it if she didn’t look in the mirror. But once she did, she broke down straight away.

That darn Mo Shiting actually made me look so ugly. How am I supposed to face anyone?

How would I still have the cheek to jump out in this state?!

…

When they returned to the main house, Old Master Mo immediately instructed Uncle Guan, “Hurry and inform the kitchen to make some more dishes that Little Pear likes, as well as some tonics. She’s too skinny, so she needs some nourishment.”

“Yes, Master.”

Uncle Guan smiled.

He was also there when Mo Shiting said those words just now.

He didn’t expect them to progress so quickly, and he was also sincerely happy for them.

After Uncle Guan left, Old Master Mo called Aunt Liang over. He smiled as he said, “Go get a few more sets of clothes for Little Pear. Bring them to her when she wakes up.”

“Yes, Master. I’ll do it right away.”

Aunt Liang left in a hurry.

After taking care of Gu Li’s clothes and food, Old Master Mo still felt that it wasn’t enough. After thinking about it, he decided to call Song Yunque.

Song Yunque was in a daze when his phone suddenly rang. He was full of anger from being woken up.

“Who is it? They’re being so noisy so early in the morning!”

He originally wanted to scold the person who called him fiercely, but when he picked up his phone and saw that it was Old Master Mo, his expression instantly changed. “Good morning, Grandpa Mo! Why are you looking for me so early in the morning? Hehehe…”

“Look at how delirious you are. Did you just wake up? Young man, this isn’t a good habit!”

Mo Shaoyuan couldn’t help lecturing him.

Song Yunque felt aggrieved, but he could only smile apologetically and say, “Okay.”

Thankfully, Old Master Mo didn’t reprimand him for long before getting to the main topic. “Hurry and buy a car right now and drive it to the old residence for Little Pear.”

Hearing that Old Master Mo wanted to buy a car to send Gu Li, Song Yunque was instantly spirited. “Are you saying that Fourth Sister-in-Law is at the old residence?”

“Yes! Go do it quickly. Don’t delay it.”

“Is there a budget?”

Song Yunque jumped out of bed swiftly and asked.

“Why should there be any budget? If you like it, just buy it. There’s no limit! Remember to put it on Mo Shiting’s tab.”

“Okay, okay.”

Song Yunque hurriedly nodded.

After hanging up, he hummed a song as he walked into the bathroom.

I’m so nervous! I’m going to see ‘A Sweet Pear’ in person for the first time!

I have to look more handsome!

…

“Is there anyone here that can save me?

“I’m so hungry…”

Gu Li collapsed on the sofa and called out weakly.

She hadn’t eaten anything since noon yesterday, so it has been nearly 24 hours since she last ate and she was about to starve to death.

Mo Shiting, you bastard.. When I’m free, I definitely won’t let you off…
