Be a Good Boy and Marry Me-Chapter 407 - 315 Gu Li and Mo Shiting are related
Chapter 407: Chapter 315 Gu Li and Mo Shiting are related
Murong Si wore a serious expression, his tone somewhat imposing: “She has to come back. A Nation is her home, this is where she belongs.”
Gu Yuan of course knew what Murong Si felt for Gu Li, however, he did not support it.
From a man’s point of view, Murong Si was a young man with deep schemes, someone capable of great things, but from a father’s position, he did not trust this man with his daughter at all.
As for Mo Shiting, although he didn’t like him either, at least, he has moral principles, is benevolent, and not altogether bad.
Seeing Gu Yuan remain silent, Murong Si became impatient, “Uncle!”
“Ah Si…”
After forcefully drawing on his cigar twice, Gu Yuan finally spoke, “Gu Li does not have you in her heart. Even if Mo Shiting did not appear, with her personality, she would not like you. There are plenty of fish in the sea, why be infatuated with one flower? You might as well let go and pursue your happiness.”
“Uncle, Little Pear is my happiness. I don’t want anyone but her!”
Murong Si’s tone was very resolute, with a streak of ruthlessness quickly flashing in his eyes.
Gu Yuan stared at him, “You might want to reconsider. Though I don’t favor Mo Shiting, since Gu Li has already made her choice, I can only respect her decision.”
Not expecting Gu Yuan to no longer oppose their relationship, Murong Si’s hands clenched into fists unconsciously.

His face turned tight, remained mute for a long while.
The air was suddenly filled with silence, vaguely filled with a sense of escalating tension.
“Knock, knock, knock—”
At this time, the sound of knocking interrupted the unspoken standoff between them.
“Come in.”
Gu Yuan extinguished his cigar and spoke lightly.
As his voice fell, the secretary came in and respectfully reported, “Sir, the President would like to see you.”
Gu Yuan casually adjusted the collar of his shirt and stood up, “Understood. Get the car ready, I’m leaving now.”
“Yes.”
The secretary left after confirming, but not before giving Murong Si a covert glance.
Seeing the ghastly pallor on Murong Si’s face, he couldn’t help but surmise. Had Count Allen and him had a quarrel?
However, he decided better of prying into the private affairs of these important people.
The secretary soon left.
Murong Si stood up with a frosty face.
Knowing that Gu Yuan didn’t want to continue the conversation, and realizing he wouldn’t get the answer he desired, he suppressed his anger and bowed slightly, “Then, I’ll be leaving first.”
“Go on.”
Gu Yuan waved his hand, indicating for him to leave.
Catching Murong Si out of the corner of his eye as he reached the door, he slightly cornered his lips and stopped him abruptly, “Ah Si— ”
Murong Si halted his steps and slowly turned around.
“Love is not everything in life. You are the talent and future hope of A Nation. I hope you understand this and focus your mind on nation-building.”
Considering that he had watched him grow up all these years, Gu Yuan was reluctant to see him go astray and kindly reminded him so.
Murong Si curved his lips with a hint of ridicule in his heart, but the expression on his face remained as stoic as ever: “I understand. Thank you, Uncle.”
While speaking, he bowed again to Gu Yuan, then strode quickly out of the room.
The moment he stepped out of the office, his handsome face seemed particularly gloomy.
Gu Yuan watched his tall and straight figure, his deep eyes narrowed, shrouding a sense of helplessness.
Hopefully, he would come to his senses and stop being so obstinate.
Imperial City University.
Mo Shiting dropped off Gu Li at the school around five in the afternoon.
As he had to catch a flight, he didn’t stay long. He just pulled into the campus, allowed her to alight, and then left.
It was a hasty goodbye, but it was mutual, fearing that any delay would only intensify their reluctance to part.
Gu Li strolled down the tree-lined avenue with her backpack.
The setting sun illuminated her, casting an enchanting glow over her figure.
“Little Pear.”
A familiar female voice suddenly sounded behind her.
Gu Li turned around and saw Xiang Xiaoyue briskly walked towards her carrying a stack of books.
“Little Pear, I heard you took leave for some personal matters. Has everything been settled?”
Concern seeped through Xiang Xiaoyue’s words.
Gu Li smiled slightly, “Yes, everything’s settled.”
After that, noticing the pile of foreign language books in her hands, she couldn’t help but wonder, “Why are you carrying so many foreign language books? What are you planning to do?”
“I’m preparing for the English sixth level exam in December. I missed it by a few points when I was a sophomore, it was such a shame.”
Xiang Xiaoyue said truthfully, then asked, “By the way, have you passed the sixth level?”
