Chapter 1147 Star Wish: Invitation; Letter of Surrender
With Xiao Mo's full support and guarantee, although the Han family has fallen into decline and its former glory is no longer there, the quality of life of the family of three has not decreased but increased, and is even better than before.
Xiao Mo's attitude towards the Han family, whether as a future son-in-law or fiancé, was perfect, almost reaching the impeccable "ceiling" level.
He showed great concern for Han's father and mother, asking about their well-being and providing them with meticulous care in their daily lives;
In his career, he also demonstrated strong abilities and resources, and promised to help the Han family regain its momentum.
The two elders of the Han family are worldly-wise people. Even if Xiao Mo is not so outstanding, they will not waver in their determination to marry their daughter off for the sake of the family's interests.
What's more, Xiao Mo is not only excellent, but also shows full sincerity. His sweet words make them dizzy and full of joy.
Just two days after being immersed in the beautiful fantasy brought by Xiao Mo, the two elders of the Han family began to become high-profile again, as if the heavy blow they had received from the Gu family before was just a passing cloud and not worth mentioning.
They spread the news everywhere, claiming to be Xiao Mo's father-in-law and mother-in-law, with smug looks on their faces and boasting in their words.
In response to this, Gu Yunqian and Lao Mo both found Xiao Mo one after another, wanting to confirm his true intentions and thoughts.
However, Xiao Mo's eloquent mouth is not fake, he can always respond to various doubts and inquiries skillfully.
When facing Gu Yunqian, he sincerely comforted him, "You know her level better than anyone else. Instead of letting her become a time bomb that threatens you, it's better to keep her under your nose. Anyway, I just need a tool to marry, so it doesn't matter who I marry. Besides, you were so cruel in the beginning, so I have to prepare a way out for you. Who doesn't have a chance in life?"
His tone was sincere and his eyes were firm, which made people believe what he said.
But when Lao Mo came to question him, he was able to quickly change his words and explain his behavior and motives clearly and logically, which made Lao Mo feel that there was some truth in it.
In short, with Xiao Mo's efforts, Gu Yunqian no longer pursued the Han family, and Lao Mo also accepted the reasons he gave.
In this way, it seems that it is only a matter of time before Xiao Mo and Han Zhiyuan get married. Although they claim that this is a marriage that is mutually beneficial, the two still took the proper attitude in the process of preparing for the wedding.
Xiao Mo made careful arrangements for the wedding and put in enough pomp to show his importance to Han Zhiyuan.
When trying on a wedding dress, he would praise his wife openly in front of others, his eyes full of affection. His ardent gaze seemed to melt people, making it difficult to tell whether his feelings were sincere or motivated by considerations of profit.
Han Zhiyuan also tried her best to select each wedding dress. She looked at those exquisite dresses carefully, and occasionally stared at a certain style and lost in her own thoughts.
During rehearsals, she would often stare blankly, as if her soul was out of her body, until someone around her gave her a reminder, and then she would suddenly remember what to do next.
There were a few moments when her thoughts drifted away, as if she saw Gu Yunqian wearing a neat suit, smiling, and walking towards her impatiently, just like the sunny, cheerful, gentle and considerate senior when they first met.
However, when the reminder sounded in her ears, the light that originally enveloped Gu Yunqian gradually dissipated, and was replaced by the face of Xiao Mo, her nominal husband from now on.
At that moment, Han Zhiyuan's face showed disappointment without disguising it, and the loss and helplessness in her eyes were clearly visible. Xiao Mo saw this scene, and although he was a little bothered, he didn't say much.
In the following process, both of them chose to end it hastily, as if they both wanted to escape from this awkward and complicated atmosphere as soon as possible.
Indeed, even if a marriage is chosen for the sake of interests, it is not possible to give up those unnecessary emotions overnight.
What Han Zhiyuan is showing now is this kind of "withdrawal reaction". She needs time to adapt and adjust to face her inner emotional entanglement and the upcoming marriage life...
Xiao Mo parked the car steadily downstairs of the towering building of Miaoyin Media. The body of the car reflected a cold and hard luster in the sunlight.
He remained silent, just sitting quietly in the driver's seat. After a moment, he moved his slender fingers slightly and took out a beautiful envelope carefully wrapped in festive red wrapping paper from the side. There was a golden ribbon tied on the envelope, which was gleaming in the sun.
He turned sideways and handed the envelope to Han Zhiyuan who was sitting in the passenger seat.
Han Zhiyuan lowered her eyes at this time, staring at the envelope, as if she wanted to see through it. She clenched her hands in front of her, her fingers turned white from the force, and she couldn't reach out to take it for a long time.
The envelope was like a door to painful memories of the past, which made her hesitate.
After a long time, when she finally mustered up the courage to reach out, she felt as if a pair of invisible hands were pulling her back, preventing her from touching.
With great difficulty, her fingertips touched the envelope and she held it in her hand. It was obviously just a thin piece of paper, but at this moment it seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, weighing down her heart and making even her breathing become heavy.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo frowned slightly and groaned heavily, breaking the suffocating silence in the car.
Then, he spoke softly and said, "I will send the invitations to other members of the company, but this one,"
As he spoke, he pointed his chin at the envelope in Han Zhiyuan's hand.
"It belongs only to Gu Yunqian! No matter what, we will see each other every day in the future, so you still have to deliver this invitation alone."
After all, he will be your senior brother from now on, so you have to be submissive, apologize, and give him the face he deserves!
His voice was low and calm, but every word was like a nail, driving deeply into Han Zhiyuan's heart.
Han Zhiyuan still kept her lips tightly closed and said nothing. She took a deep breath, as if to swallow all the grievances and unwillingness, and silently pushed open the car door and got out.
Xiao Mo sat in the car, looking through the window, following her figure closely.
He watched the woman dragging her feet as she walked from the passenger seat to the front of the car. Her back looked so lonely and helpless, and every step she took seemed to be in the mud, extremely difficult.
Then, she slowly moved forward from the front of the car, her body becoming more and more hunched, as if her back was bent by the burden of life, until finally she disappeared behind the majestic gate of the company.
The corners of Xiao Mo's mouth slightly raised, outlining a meaningful arc, and he looked like he was in a very good mood.
He leaned back comfortably on the seat, folded his hands behind his head, and tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, making a crisp and rhythmic "click" sound, as if he was playing a song of victory.
Then, a series of melodious whistles were heard in the car, playing David Tao's emotionally entangled song "Love Me or Him?"
The melodious tune kept echoing in the small space of the car. Xiao Mo was immersed in it, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was enjoying this moment of pride, and as if he was carefully planning the next step of the chess game in this melody...
