Chapter 137: Marriage Rumors
The news that Jin Mo had spent the night at the old mansion reached Qin Manwen the next day.
When he heard this news, his mouth almost wouldn’t close.
He asked several times, “Really?” “Are you sure?” “Is there a mistake?”
His subordinate said with certainty, “We’re sure. We saw them go in together with our own eyes. We also saw them having lunch together. They’re still at the Gu family’s vacation home now.”
Qin Manwen quickly made a call to Gu Zhenxuan.
Gu Zhenxuan on the other end of the phone had also just received the news, and neither of them knew what to say.
It was just a blind date, how did it end up in bed?
This kind of speed caught the two old men completely off guard!
“Um, should we start preparing a wedding for them?” Gu Zhenxuan spoke first. “Things have progressed this far, I don’t think an engagement is even needed!”
These words were exactly what Qin Manwen wanted to hear.
He didn’t have many days left. The doctor had given him a final deadline of just one or two months.
Before he died, if he couldn’t see his grandson born, seeing his son get married would be good too.
He figured that as long as it was settled, he would directly hand over the company to Jin Mo.
“I think it’s a good idea!” Qin Manwen endured the urge to cough, his face flushed red, and said, “You go home and ask Tingting what she thinks. I’ll ask Mo Mo what he thinks on my end. Once we have results, we’ll discuss it!”
“Okay!”
As soon as he hung up the phone, Qin Manwen began to cough violently, his whole body shaking, his neck and face turning red, and a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Aunt Ju heard the noise and hurried in to pat him on the back.
Jin Mo had originally planned to go to the company after eating, but Bai Xian had followed him, so the company was naturally left behind.
If Jin Mo didn’t leave, Gu Tingting naturally couldn’t leave!
Forced to do so, she could only return to her room and complain to her boyfriend.
“Ayu, why is Jin Mo so shameless, just hanging around here!” Who would have thought that Gu Tingting, who was so proper outside, would completely change once she entered her room.
Most people from wealthy families probably need a bit of disguise!
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned when he heard Gu Tingting’s words.
“Jin Mo?”
“Yes, the one I told you about who reached an agreement with me! What’s wrong, Ayu, do you know him?”
“Ah? Oh, no!” The person on the other end seemed a little out of it. “Tingting, you told me yesterday that this…Jin Mo has a boyfriend, and you’re helping him cover for it?”
“Yes! I’m helping him cover so he can meet his boyfriend. He’s pretending to be the person I’m going to marry on the surface!” Gu Tingting lay on the bed, rolling around as she spoke.
“He has a boyfriend?” The person on the other end’s tone was a little low, almost inaudible if you didn’t listen carefully.
Gu Tingting thought that her boyfriend’s focus was on the words “boyfriend.” “Yes, he’s gay! I really didn’t expect such a good-looking man to be gay. What a pity!”
The silence on the other end lasted even longer, so long that Gu Tingting thought the line had been cut. She picked up her phone to check, and it was still connected.
“Ayu?”
“Yes, I’m here!”
“Oh, I thought you’d gone offline!”
“Hehe, no, I’m just a little surprised!” The person on the other end laughed.
“But, I saw his boyfriend too. He’s really a dragon among men. No wonder Jin Mo likes him!”
Bai Xian’s image appeared in Gu Tingting’s mind, and she couldn’t help but click her tongue. That man’s eyes were full of Jin Mo, and no one else could enter his eyes. She was really envious, jealous, and hateful!
Not only was he handsome, but he was also tall, rich, and completely devoted to her. The person who got him would be so lucky.
Gu Tingting always felt that she was the one who took the initiative more often in her relationship with her boyfriend, and the other person was always lukewarm. Sometimes, she would feel that he didn’t love her, and sometimes she would feel that she was just overthinking it, after all, he was a cold person.
But now, seeing how Bai Xian, who was also a cold person, treated Jin Mo, she felt a little creeped out!
“Ayu!”
“Yes!”
“Do you love me?”
The other end was silent for a moment. “I do!”
Gu Tingting was also silent for a while. She heard a trace of hesitation in the other person’s silence, and her heart was also lifted.
But she understood that she could only pretend to be ignorant and not investigate further.
“I love you too!” She replied without hesitation.
After hanging up the phone, she sat up and stared blankly at the willow tree outside the window, its leaves falling.
Jin Mo snuggled in Bai Xian’s arms like a little milk dog, his arms wrapped around Bai Xian’s lean and strong waist, pecking Bai Xian’s face from time to time.
“Brother!”
“Yes!”
“I don’t want you to leave!”
“…”
Bai Xian’s hand had been gently stroking Jin Mo’s face, and his eyes showed even more reluctance than Jin Mo’s.
Jin Mo was suddenly speechless.
He didn’t want his brother to leave, and his brother didn’t want to leave even more.
“Once Qin Manwen’s funeral is over, we can be together in peace!”
“Okay!”
“I’m his son, and my heart belongs to my mother. I really can’t just leave him alone!”
“I know!”
“Although it’s not right to lie to him, a lie told out of kindness can give him peace of mind when he leaves. I think my mother would be happy too!”
“Yes, Mo Mo is very soft-hearted!” Bai Xian lowered his head and shared a long kiss with Jin Mo.
It wasn’t until five o’clock in the afternoon that Gu Tingting finally couldn’t bear it anymore. She stormed in, pointing at Jin Mo. “Are you leaving or not! If you don’t leave, I’m leaving!”
Jin Mo blinked a few times, and finally slowly climbed off Bai Xian.
“Let’s go!”
After getting a reply, Gu Tingting once again walked towards the elevator entrance with heavy steps.
Jin Mo had rested for a day, and he could finally walk properly. He pulled Bai Xian and walked towards the elevator entrance as well.
“Brother, I’ll leave with Gu Tingting first. You and Brother Xu can leave later!”
“Okay!” Bai Xian’s eyes were full of reluctance, making Jin Mo unable to hold back and pounce into his arms again.
In the underground garage of the old mansion, Jin Mo saw Xiao Feiwu and Xu Jiahao, whom he hadn’t seen for a month.
Xu Jiahao flinched when he saw Jin Mo.
As Jin Mo passed in front of Xu Jiahao, he gave him a look that said, “You just wait, kid.”
“Brother, I’ve secretly gotten your phone number again. This time, I’ll be careful not to let Qin Manwen find out!”
Jin Mo whispered in Bai Xian’s ear, “I’ll call you often!”
The corners of Bai Xian’s mouth turned up. “Okay! Go back and take some anti-inflammatory medicine!”
Jin Mo’s face flushed red. “I know!”
“Let’s go!” Gu Tingting rolled down the car window and shouted out.
Jin Mo turned his head and left a sentence, “Pay attention to maintaining your ladylike image!” Then he flirted with his brother for a few more minutes before leisurely getting into Gu Tingting’s car.
“Brother, wait for my call!”
“Okay!”
“Brother Xu, hehe, Brother Feiwu, you two must send my brother back safely!”
Xiao Feiwu responded readily, “Don’t worry!”
Xu Jiahao didn’t say a word. He felt guilty and ashamed! He was even more threatened by Jin Mo’s “hehe”!
Not only did he not do his job well, but he also passed on incorrect information, which was an even greater crime!
If this was a normal customer, it wouldn’t matter, and he wouldn’t care whether it was true or not. But this was his VIP customer.
He was his bread and butter. He sent it out without verifying it. If Bai Xian overthought it and something went wrong, his sin would be great.
But clearly Bai Xian didn’t blame him and even let him stay and secretly follow Jin Mo, which made his ashamed heart feel relieved!
