1275 Marriage Alliance
Chu Jie was very satisfied with the fake Mo Long’s answer and asked shyly, “Really? Then what does Mr. Mo Long think of me? What do you think of me?”
The fake Mo Long looked at Chu Jie. Although he pretended to be serious on the surface, his eyes were already filled with desire.
However, he still pretended to be serious and said, “Miss Chu is a rare beauty. This is the first time I’ve met someone as beautiful and outstanding as you.”
Chu Jie’s face was completely red and she could not say a word for a while.
When Kang Xue’s father heard this, his expression was as ugly as it could be.
What do you mean by first time? Could it be that Jiang Yu was not more beautiful than Chu Jie? Was he not more outstanding than her?
At first, old master Chu felt that Chu Jie’s question was very presumptuous. However, when the fake Mo Long gave him an answer, his face brightened up and his voice trembled with excitement, “President Mo, actually, our Chu family has the intention to form a marriage alliance with the Mo family…”
As soon as he said this, the audience went silent. Even Kang Xue’s father was shocked.
He looked at the fake Mo Long in surprise and bewilderment, trying to see the rejection on his face.
However, the fake Mo Long’s face was extremely calm, and his emotions couldn’t be seen at all. What he said next shocked everyone. “Alright.”
This time, even Jiang Yu and Mo Long, who were in the audience, almost couldn’t hold it in.
“He actually used your face to agree to this marriage?” Even though she knew that the person on stage was a fake Mo Long, Jiang Yu was still very displeased that he agreed to such a request with a face that looked exactly like the real Mo Long.
Mo Long’s brows were also tightly knitted. He did not expect this person to be so bold as to use his face to agree to the marriage.
If his fake identity was discovered, the Chu family would be the first to come after him, much less the Mo family.
Kang Xue’s father couldn’t hold it in any longer. He pulled on the fake Mo Long’s sleeve and questioned, “Mo Long, what do you mean by this? Did you really break up with Jiang Yu?”
The fake Mo Long frowned and shook off his hand impatiently, saying, “I advise you not to meddle in my affairs. I’ll say it again, you can come back and meddle in my business when you’ve settled the relationship between your daughter and your son-in-law.”
After saying that, the fake Mo Long returned to the inner courtyard, leaving Kang Xue’s father alone on the stage awkwardly.
Chu Jie quickly caught up with the fake Mo Long and held his arm affectionately. She asked in a sweet voice, “Mr. Mo Long, who is Jiang Yu? From what that uncle said just now, Jiang Yu is your ex-girlfriend?”
The fake Mo Long casually replied, “yes, I don’t have any feelings for him. At first, I just thought she was pretty, but after I got tired of her, I thought she was just so-so.”
“Ah?” Chu Jie couldn’t help but frown. “Then, will Mr. Mo Long get tired of looking at my face one day? ”
The fake Mo Long paused. “No, you’re different from them.”
The fake Mo Long didn’t say how they were different.
However, Chu Jie was now in the state of a little girl who had seen her sweetheart. No matter what the fake Mo Long said, she would believe it and would not ask for the reason.
She followed the fake Mo Long back to the inner courtyard and told some jokes.
Meanwhile, in the outer courtyard, old master Chu looked at Kang Xue’s father with a dark expression, “Mister Kang, I respect house Kang, that’s why I sent the invitation. However, please don’t speak so arrogantly in my Chu clan just because of this respect.”
Kang Xue’s father’s face turned red with anger. He said angrily, “Alright, I’ve already come to your Chu family’s banquet. I’ve already given you face! But the relationship between house Chu and house Kang will end here!”
With that, he flicked his sleeve and left.
Old master Chu did not expect things to turn out this way. He was worried that the mood of the people present would be ruined because of this and the banquet would become dull. So, he said, “every gentleman and lady today will receive a gift after the banquet.”
Jiang Yu could not help but laugh and said softly, “Old master Chu is really considerate of Chu Jie.”
However, they didn’t plan to stay here any longer. The gift wasn’t important to them at all. Furthermore, the most important thing right now was to find out who the mole was and who had revealed Mo Long’s movements.
As such, Jiang Yu and Mo Long decided to leave. However, just as they turned around and were about to leave, old master Chu called out, “Please wait a moment,”
Jiang Yu stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at old master Chu. She asked with a smile, “Hello, what’s the matter?”
Mo Long also looked at old master Chu in surprise.
