447 Chapter 447. Angry? Jealous?
After silence, he nodded and replied, “If that’s the case, I’ll have to prepare more gifts when I visit him.”
Mo Qian took this matter to heart. He thought that after he returned, he would get Mo Xi to release this news as soon as possible and do his best to help Zhuang Xian solve some unnecessary problems. Just like Zhuang Xian had said herself, as long as it could be solved with money, it was not a difficult task.
Just like that, Zhuang Xian accompanied Mo Qian the entire time. They chatted slowly, and the atmosphere was warm and comfortable. Time passed by just like that.
Just as the acupuncture was about to end, Mo Qian seemed to have remembered that he had not had the time to ask Zhuang Xian.
He looked at Zhuang Xian, who was removing the needles for him, and his eyes showed a hint of concern and probing. “When we were downstairs just now, it was your first time seeing Zhuang Bai, right? ”
When Zhuang Xian heard this, she paused for a moment before continuing.
“When you saw Zhuang Bai, what did you think? Why did you cry? Should you have such a big emotional fluctuation if there wasn’t any special reason? You’re not that kind of person! So, can you tell me the reason? I’m worried about you!”
Mo Qian’s eyes had been fixed on Zhuang Xian’s side profile the entire time. He felt a little anxious when he saw that Zhuang Xian had put away all the silver needles and was still silent. However, he was too weak, and forcing himself to ask Zhuang Xian seemed tricky.
He tiredly closed his eyes and thought briefly before saying, “Is it related to your secrets again? You still can’t tell me?”
Looking at Mo Qian’s tired and sweaty face, Zhuang Xian frowned and sighed. After a moment of silence, she hummed with mixed feelings. “Since it’s a secret, I can’t let anyone know. I understand that you care about and worry about me, but I want you to understand that everything I’m doing now is something I must do. If I don’t do it, I won’t be able to live in peace for the rest of my life.”
As Zhuang Xian spoke, she retracted her gaze and took a light breath before continuing, “I misunderstood what happened between you and Mo Yep. I apologize to you. The proposal I mentioned before is long-term; you don’t have to worry about it! Whatever I, Zhuang Xian, have said, I will keep my word!”
Mo Qian’s eyes were closed as he listened to these words. He felt both angry and amused. How did these words sound like something a 16-year-old girl would say? What did she mean by every word that she, Zhuang Xian, had said was true?
Was she trying to do business with him? Or did she want to fight him?
Mo Qian felt helpless and tired. He opened his eyes and looked at Zhuang Xian, “I understand what you mean, but you never seem to know what I want. I want to understand you, to understand you! I like you, that’s why I care about you, do you understand? I already don’t know what I must do to gain your trust, make you believe in me wholeheartedly, and think that I’m someone you can rely on on!
I used to think I was a stubborn and closed-off person, but after meeting you, I realized I’m not!” Mo Qian said as he slowly propped himself up.
He looked at Zhuang Xian gently, but the light in his eyes had already dimmed, and there seemed to be a lot of disappointment.
“Zhuang Xian, you’re the most stubborn and conservative person.”
Hearing Mo Qian’s evaluation of her, Zhuang Xian’s heart trembled. She suddenly felt her heart flustered. She raised her eyes to look at Mo Qian and was burned by the greed and dominance in his eyes.
Mo Qian could no longer control himself, which was why he appeared to be a little paranoid. He was worried that his behavior would scare Zhuang Xian, so after taking a few deep breaths, he said, “I’m sorry, Zhuang Xian, I lost my composure! I’m a little tired tonight. If there’s anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. I’ll get Mo Xi to take you back now.”
As he spoke, he shouted at the door. When Mo Xi and Mo Ye came in, he lowered his eyes and said softly, “Mo Xi, the streetlights in the military area won’t be very bright at night. You should take Zhuang Xian back safely now.”
