1291: Should I Ask For Her Hand In Marriage?

Should I Ask For Her Hand In Marriage?

Gu Qingyao's lips twitched. She also felt that Mu Mu was rather unlucky.1

But she still said, "Nonsense. It's Sister Yuan's mother who has poor taste. Your Fourth Cousin is such a good man, but she doesn't know how to appreciate him. Your Sister Yuan is smarter!"

Mo Yang: "…"

Mo Chengxi laughed and glanced at Mo Yang. "See, Aunt is so nice to me. Brat, you're always making fun of me."

Mo Yang immediately widened his eyes. "Since when have I ever made fun of you? Fourth Cousin, don't malign me."

Mo Chengxi laughed and said, "I'm stating the facts, not maligning you! You are full of naughty ideas. Aunt should discipline you properly."

Mo Yang: "…"

Everyone said that Fourth Cousin was the smartest one in the family before he was born. He was sly, cunning and scheming. Sure enough, it was true.

How petty!

He would even quibble with a small child. Um! He must learn so that he could be even more scheming than Fourth Cousin in the future!

But Fourth Cousin's mother-in-law despised him even though he was so clever. It must be because he did not know how to be good and lovable. He was different. He was such a sweet-talker and knew how to coax others. Parents all loved him.

When he grew up, his mother-in-law would dote on him like a son!

Mhm!

That's the way!

Mo Beihan said, "Hasn't the Zhong family always approved of you and Yuan Yuan? Surely the Zhong family wouldn't look down on a child from our Mo family!"

Mo Chengxi said, "The other members of the Zhong family are all pleased with me and are more than happy for Yuan Yuan to marry into the Mo family. Only Yuan Yuan's mother dislikes me. She has some kind of perverted loftiness. She's always trying to control Yuan Yuan's life. She likes scholarly people and feels that a businessman like me is too money-minded."

Mo Beihan: "…"

With Mo Beihan's status, he had almost no interactions with Zheng Lin. He really did not know what this woman was thinking.

His Mu Mu was the most intelligent of the children who had grown up in the Mo family. His future was immeasurably bright.

Now Mu Mu was still young, and the Mo family maintained a low profile in many things, so he had not displayed the full extent of his prowess. Only Mo Beihan knew how much this child was helping him and how many things he was in charge of.

He was sure that practically no one among the younger generation in the capital could surpass Mu Mu. Mo Beihan just could not understand why Zheng Lin would despise a talented person like that.

He frowned. "What do you think? Why don't… I go straight to the Zhong family and ask for her hand in marriage?"

Boss Mo's status in the capital had grown. The Gu family had also progressed more and more quickly, and their alliance had grown increasingly stable. Now Mo Beihan was much more imperious when he spoke. Even though all the major families in the capital had risen, the Mo family's status continued to climb.

If his Mu Mu liked someone, they would have her even if they had to snatch her away.

Mo Chengxi smiled. "Don't worry, Young Uncle. I will manage it properly. Yuan Yuan still has some feelings for her mother, but she hates it when her mother keeps trying to control her and interfere with her. Presently, the Zhong family increasingly dislikes Zheng Lin, especially Old Master Zhong. Yuan Yuan's relationship with me has raised the family's position and has helped the Zhong family to progress.

"As long as Yuan Yuan and I are willing, and love each other, it is a win-win situation for the Zhong family. But Zheng Lin keeps making unreasonable demands and trying to come between us. She is affecting the Zhong family's future. It's not just Old Master Zhong. All the other members of the Zhong family dislike a woman like that.

"Yuan Yuan is rather worried. If she doesn't protect Zheng Lin a little, her mother might be thrown out of the Zhong family one day. After all, she is her mother. She doesn't want things to reach that stage."
