Engaged

"Jin.. Let her be. I understand." Li Weiwei gave a sad smile. She understood that Li Yue was indeed a very prideful woman. However, she had already made up her mind to help her. Since she could not convince Li Yue, then she was planning to have their mother talk to her instead. Surely, Li Yue was not that ungrateful to actually ignore their mother's advice, right? She eyed Mo Li who was silently drinking his wine. "Sister Yue… this makes me wonder… did you come back for my wedding alone?"

"…" Who told her that she came back for her? Li Yue could not comprehend Li Weiwei's thinking at all. Was she so used to the world revolving around her? "No. I came back for business."

"Oh. Business?" Xia Jin immediately got interested. Was it possible that Li Yue was going to start her own business? "I have a few contacts that would help with a start up. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to contact us."

"Of course." Li Yue said. The conversation was interrupted when their orders arrived. Since this was a very prestigious restaurant, everything here was expensive and of course very delicious, wasn't this why Xia Jin and Li Weiwei chose this restaurant? However… there was something wrong with the scene before this couple.

"You ordered this?" Mo Li frowned. "This is not good for your health. Change this one." He immediately asked the waiter to summon the chef. "I want you to make the best for this woman. Healthy and good." Why was Li Yue still eating the cheapest and greasiest one? Mo Li was furious. Was it because she thought Xia Jin and Li Weiwei won't be able to afford it? Or… was it because she thought the couple would ask her to pay for her own food? He eyed the woman's skinny arms. "Everything that this woman will eat tonight… I will pay for it."

"Yes, President." The Chef immediately bowed and left. Seeing this, a smile appeared on Mo Li's face. He eyed everyone at the table and continued. "Oh… don't mind me. Just act as if I am not here." He said as he started drinking wine again.

"…" Until now, Li Yue didn't know how to react. Wasn't this man too excessive? The reason why she chose such food was because it was the easiest one to cook! Everything on the menu needed at least twenty minutes to prepare. While that one was only ten minutes. She was too hungry to wait! And why did this man seem to sound strange? She eyed Mo Li and she wondered if… this was indeed Mo Li. 

She remembered the information that she received about this man. Currently, Mo Li was already the one running the Mo Entertainment and Mo Industry. He was a tycoon who won against his own father's schemes. Even Sun Fengmian was proven useless against Mo Li's actions.

Li Yue remembered that after the incident four years ago, Mo Li didn't go to college. Instead, he started working directly under his father. Then… after a few months… Sun Fengmian suddenly became ill. Until now, the woman was bed ridden and no one knew when she would be able to wake up!

Even the Sun Family were helpless about this matter. However, Li Yue knew that this was all Mo Li's plan. After Sun Fengmian's downfall, her son Mo Fang was forced to leave the country to continue his studies abroad. Then… Mo Ying suddenly resigned, leaving everything to Mo Li.

Too fast!

Everyone who saw it immediately knew that something was wrong. Why was the transition so fast? Mo Li was now the richest man in Yin City. It had not even been a year since he graduated from Highschool! Such a frightening genius in the business world!

While everyone was praising Mo Li, some of them knew that he must have schemed against the whole Mo Family for him to acquire the entire Mo Family's wealth. But wasn't this too ruthless? More importantly, why would he even do that? Did the Mo Family do something that made him mad?

Of course, not one of those people decided to voice their questions. They decided to keep these to themselves and started sending the man gifts instead.

Right now, Mo Li was a very successful businessman. He was cold and ruthless, smart and cunning. His name was known not only in this city but also in this country and abroad. 

"Well… he is right, Sister Yue." Li Weiwei started to speak to ease the awkward atmosphere. "We should all eat healthy food. In the future… you should take care of your health more." A gentle expression was on Li Weiwei's eyes. Li Yue was not as skinny as before but she was still considered small. Was it because of poverty?

Li Weiwei felt her heart ache. She couldn't help but feel guilty about this. After all, she was the reason why Li Yue had to leave the Li Family. She immediately lowered her head to hide the guilt in her eyes. In the future, she needed to help Li Yue more. 

Seeing this, Li Yue didn't know if she should laugh or laugh harder. These people thought that she didn't have money to buy food? It seems that they don't understand how creating an art requires time— a lot of it. Sometimes, a painting requires two days or more of non stop working. After all, Li Yue was always like that. Once she started painting, she couldn't stop herself and wouldn't even bother eating until she finished the piece. Of course, this was the reason why she hired someone to cook for her and bring her food while working. With her current wealth, Li Yue could actually eat everything that she wanted. However, she really was too busy sometimes.

Of course, this fact did not concern them at all. Li Yue just smiled. These people could think whatever they want. She wouldn't care at all.

She was here to finish her quests. That's all.

"Oh… By the way… I heard that Mr. Mo is already engaged to someone?" Xia Jin suddenly said as he looked at Mo Li. "Congratulations! Mr. Mo!"
