433 Chapter 433. Zhuang Bai’s Suspicion
“Why did you suddenly come back? I’ve heard from uncle Zhuang that the company you’re managing overseas has been developing by leaps and bounds recently. You’ve already secured many foreign projects.”
Zhuang Bai looked at the very approachable young Master Mo in front of him and felt a little confused. Where did this familiar and intimate feeling come from?
Ming En Corporation had indeed been collaborating with the Mo Corporation recently. He could occasionally hear news about Mo Qian from his father’s mouth, but he didn’t know that his father and Mo Qian’s relationship had become so close!
One must know that it was not easy to get the honorific ‘uncle’ from Mo Qian’s mouth!
This meant that Mo Qian had honestly treated his father as an elder that needed to be respected. He was no longer just an ordinary company CEO.
“I just got off the plane this afternoon. I’ve already completed the preliminary work at the company, so I thought of coming back to visit my family. President Mo, you’re too kind. The project we have is nothing compared to the Mo Corporation.” Zhuang Bai replied softly. His tone was more distant and polite, very different from when he talked to Mo Ye.
Zhuang Bai wasn’t someone who didn’t know his limits. He knew what he had to do. Mo Qian was close to Zhuang Ming, but that didn’t mean he was a friend.
Young Master Zhuang was overthinking things. Not only did Mo Qian want to be his friend, but he also wanted to be his only brother-in-law.
However, Zhuang Bai was unaware of the complicated relationship between his sister and Mo Qian.
Mo Qian chuckled, looked at Zhuang Bai, and said gently, “President Zhuang, you’re being too humble.”
Mo Ye stood at the side, watching the two suddenly be polite and civil to each other. She found it very interesting and couldn’t help but chuckle. “What’s going on between the two of you? Didn’t you all come here to wait for Zhuang Xian? Why are you making it so official and polite?”
She laughed lightly and teased him. Then, she looked at Mo Qian and asked, “Didn’t you come here to chase Zhuang Xian? Where is she? Could she still be angry? Are you that bad at coaxing people?”
Mo Qian glanced at his cousin, who was eager to see the world in chaos while observing Zhuang Bai’s expression from the corner of his eye.
When Zhuang Bai walked over to him, he had already seen the food container in Zhuang Bai’s hand. Zhuang Bai should be here to look for Zhuang Xian.
That was indeed the case. The things in the bag were definitely for Zhuang Xian.
As Mo Qian thought of this, he replied with a faint smile, “Today, they were training around the mountain. They were covered in dirt the whole day. She went back to wash up and should be coming down soon. I’ll wait for her here and take her to eat.”
As Zhuang Bai listened to Mo Qian’s words to Mo Ye, a faint suspicion appeared between his brows. He did not choose to remain silent but asked directly, “President Mo, are you close to Zhuang Xian?”
Logically speaking, this sister of his should not have had any interactions with someone like Mo Qian. Why did it seem like the two of them were very familiar? Mo Qian knew what Zhuang Xian had done and what she would do today! This was very strange.
Thinking back to what had happened at the infirmary entrance, Zhuang Bai had a strange guess in his heart. Could it be that Mo Qian was like that boy and liked his sister?
He hadn’t even seen Zhuang Xian with his own eyes yet, and he had already bumped into his sister’s two suitors. This has confused our young Master Zhuang.
Not knowing if he should laugh or be confused, Zhuang Bai fixed his eyes on Mo Qian, hoping to get some information from his eyes and expression.
Mo Qian looked at Zhuang Bai and nodded his head lightly. He opened his mouth and said, “I am close to her. Zhuang Xian has helped me a lot. I am very grateful to her.
I’m not only familiar with her, but I’ve also been pursuing her, but she’s always been hesitant! Mo Qian thought to himself. He didn’t tell Zhuang Bai the truth. He felt that since this was his first time meeting Zhuang Bai, he should leave a good impression.
To tell the elder brother that he liked his sister and was pursuing her didn’t seem like Mo Qian’s style.
Zhuang Bai nodded his head in confusion. He was about to ask something else when Mo Ye, who had suddenly spoken, caught his attention.
