Chapter 317 - Domineering and Forceful
“Regardless, I won't back down this time. What's there to fear? I can handle it.” Gong Haoran remained resolute, even displaying confidence.
Xi Men Yu couldn't help but smirk. “Do you, Gong Haoran, take me for a fool?”
Even if he were begged on bended knee, he wouldn't yield the tools needed for childbirth unless it was for his daughter's sake. He was adamant, even in the face of coercion.
“Where's the promised daughter, wife? There's no room for any more delays! Xi Men Yu still awaits his sister.”
Using his eldest son as leverage was merely a ploy to secure his own daughter.
“Ha! Don't think I'm unaware of your intentions. I know exactly what you, Gong Haoran, are up to,” Xi Men Yu retorted, seeing through Gong Haoran's facade.
Despite being business rivals, the marriage between Xi Men Yu and Gong Haoran required considerable effort, given their families' enmity.
Had it not been for Gong Haoran's initiative in securing transportation and tickets, allowing the birth of Xi Men Family's eldest son, Ximen Zero, they might not have cooperated. However, Gong Haoran often bore the brunt of the consequences, having abandoned Xi Men Xi previously but now compelled to return.
“Seriously, can't you focus? Is now the time for chitchat?”
Nong Mobai, parked nearby, couldn't tolerate the distraction. Their purpose was to rescue Mu Sifa.
“Why fret? Xu Moyu has everything under control. Our assistance isn't required; we're simply accompanying Xiaojie through the formalities,” Gong Haoran reassured, pulling Xi Men Yu closer.
Xi Men Yu complied, remaining by Gong Haoran's side.
Mu Sizheng silently embraced Nong Mobai, pulling him close, as if they were assembling a formidable team.
Mo Ya observed quietly, reminiscing about a past love marred by his own actions.
Having hurt his beloved years ago, he had come to Hua Xia to escape and start anew.
He avoided his former love, lacking any reason to remain by their side.
“Cut the affectionate act and focus.”
Nong Mobai, disliking Mu Sizheng's domineering nature, was preoccupied with concern for Mu Sifa, unable to entertain romantic gestures.
“Why the fury? Just observe quietly; we'll resume when we're ready.”
Mu Sizheng responded calmly, attending solely to his own affairs, indifferent to Nong Mobai's remarks.
An hour earlier, Mu Sizheng had successfully diverted Nong Mobai's attention. Originally planning to spar until dawn, Mu Sifa's unexpected situation necessitated his swift departure.
“Beast? Who's got the energy to entertain you?” Nong Mobai swatted his hands away.
Unperturbed, Mu Sizheng simply grasped Nong Mobai's waist.
Nong Mobai cursed inwardly, swiftly removing Mu Sizheng's hand.
“Damn it, are you asking for trouble?”
He muttered under his breath, directing his ire at Mu Sizheng.
Undeterred, Mu Sizheng persisted in his actions.
“You!”
Nong Mobai was on the brink of boiling over due to Mu Sizheng's actions.
“It was an urgent matter earlier, so I must take my leave. Prepare yourself for when I return!”
“Prepare yourself? Get lost.”
Damn it, I've barely returned! I've been on the grind twenty-four seven. Don't I deserve some rest?
“I'm heading to Mu Sifa and the others' place later. Return to your own abode and cease pestering me.”
Ye Zichen shot a stern glare at Mu Sizheng, urging him to behave.
“If you want me to cause a scene in front of others, I won't hesitate. Let's settle this!” Ye Zichen warned Nong Mobai sternly.
Seriously, what's wrong with him? Does he have nothing better to do than torment me every single day? How shameless.
