At the moment, Chu Yi was very despondent.
He had fallen into Mo Beihan’s trap once more!
He had been on tenterhooks all this time in the capital, always careful to avoid detection by Mo Beihan. He had not dared to do this or that, for fear that Mo Beihan would discover him.
Later on, when the medicine that Gu Qingyao had given him proved to be effective, he had been too happy to sleep. He thought that although it was dangerous and risky here, it was worth it.
But now, he discovered that everything had been part of Mo Beihan’s plan. Even Gu Qingyao treating him had been planned.
He really… had nothing to say!
At that moment, Chu Yi was truly emotionally exhausted!
Too emotionally exhausted!
He admitted defeat!
He took a deep breath and sat down in front of Mo Beihan. He looked at the table full of delicacies. This was the first time he felt so relaxed when he was eating.
He was not stupid. As Gu Qingyao said, they probably did not intend to kill him!
If Mo Beihan really wanted to kill him, he would not get Gu Qingyao to treat him. Since they had sought him out after he was partially treated, it was clear that they wanted to negotiate.
Perversely, he relaxed at that thought!
As long as they had a plan and set conditions, that meant Mo Beihan would be willing to cure him as long as he could meet the conditions.
It was worth it in exchange for his health.
Even if it was not Mo Beihan, he would be willing to pay any price if someone could cure him.
Mo Beihan also relaxed when he saw Chu Yi’s stance!
To be honest, Chu Yi had hated him for so many years and had made every effort to cause trouble for him, regardless of the cost. He had been really afraid that this fellow’s brain would not work properly and would continue to fight, regardless of anything!
Fortunately, he was not too stupid. He knew how to weigh the pros and cons.
Little Mo Yang’s eyes lit up when he saw that Chu Yi had really sat down to eat. He immediately grew bolder and earnestly used his chopsticks to place a chicken wing in Chu Yi’s bowl.
“Handsome Uncle, try this. The food in my house is the best. This is my mother’s restaurant, I can eat here for free! If you have no money in the future, you can come and look for me, and I will treat you to meals here!”
Chu Yi: “…”
What do you mean if I have no money?
Brat, are you hoping that I will go bankrupt?
Mo Beihan ate with Gu Qingyao for a while. Chu Yi sat opposite them and ate in a relaxed manner. When he was done, he looked at Mo Beihan and said, “Speak! What are your terms?”
Mo Beihan glanced at his wife and child and said with a smile, “You carry on eating. I’ll go and talk to him.”
With that, he got up and left his seat.
This was a private room that Gu Qingyao had specially reserved, and there was another adjoining room. Mo Beihan and Chu Yi prepared to hold their discussion there.
Little Mo Yang immediately jumped off Mo Beihan’s lap. He did not obey Mo Beihan’s instructions to stay with Gu Qingyao and eat. Instead, he grabbed his father’s sleeve and said hopefully, “Father, I want to go too.”
How could he miss such an exciting event?
It would broaden his experience!
Gu Qingyao frowned. Yang Yang might be smart, but he was too young!
Mo Beihan glanced at his son and raised his brows. “You really want to go?”
“Um! I really, really want to!” Mo Yang nodded vigorously.
Mo Beihan took his hand and said to Gu Qingyao, “Then I’ll bring him. Wait for me!”
Gu Qingyao did not object when Mo Beihan said that. After all, Yang Yang was a boy, and as he grew up, his father’s guidance was paramount. As long as he wanted to, he could tag along!
