Zhong Bingyuan did not doubt the ability of the Mo family’s crown prince at all.

Everyone adored him.

“So after what you’ve done today, you’ll seek out Fifth Uncle in the future?”

Mo Chengxi’s reply was very swift. “No!”

Zhong Bingyuan: “…”

“Then why did you do it?”

“Because I’m in a good mood today!”

Zhong Bingyuan: “…”

Everyone: “…”

Mo Chengxi was seated on his chair, and he turned to look smilingly at Zhong Bingyuan. His expression was clear. Everyone could clearly tell from the boss’s expression that he was in a good mood because he had brought his little girlfriend along for a meeting.

This girl was so lucky!

She had won Fourth Young Master Mo’s favor!

With that, Mo Chengxi got up and grabbed Zhong Bingyuan’s hand to walk out of the meeting room, leaving everyone behind to discuss it fervently.

Zhong Bingyuan’s face was rather flushed when they got back to the office.

“You… in the future, can you not… do… do that… in front of so many people…”

“Do what?”

Zhong Bingyuan bit her lips. She felt very shy!

Mo Chengxi laughed and stroked her head. “Why? You don’t like me doting on you so publicly?”

How could Zhong Bingyuan dislike it?

Which girl would dislike it?

“Yuan Yuan, I’ve decided to choose an auspicious date to visit the Zhong family and ask for your hand in marriage.”

Zhong Bingyuan was startled. “Ah?”

So fast?

Mo Chengxi pulled her over and sat her on his knee. Zhong Bingyuan was a pampered young lady, and she had known Mo Chengxi since she was a young girl. Mo Chengxi had always treated her very respectfully. He had almost never behaved intimately with her. So when he pulled her over, Zhong Bingyuan felt rather unused to it.

After all, this was her first time in his office and the first time doing such a thing in an office.

This was a place of work…

Mo Chengxi looked at her earnestly. “I don’t want to wait any longer. I’ve waited long enough. When I saw your mother introducing you to another man, I really wanted to go over and kill him. I don’t want this to drag on. You belong to me. I want to marry you as soon as possible so that those people won’t dare to look down on you!”

Zhong Bingyuan bit her lip. It was her fault. They had been together for so long, but she had not managed her mother’s perverse bias properly. Her incompetence as a girlfriend had caused her boyfriend to suffer.

Mo Chengxi was much more desirable than her, but he had never given her any reason to feel insecure.

Zhong Bingyuan’s heart ached. Her wonderful Brother Mo, who had waited for her for so long!

Zhong Bingyuan hugged him around his neck. “Sure. Pick an auspicious date and ask for my hand. I will marry you!”

Mo Chengxi was delighted!

He told Gu Qingyao about it when he got back.

Gu Qingyao raised her brows. “A proposal? Have you thought it through?”

Mo Chengxi smiled and rubbed his nose. “Actually! I’ve long wanted to marry Yuan Yuan, but after all, she’s still young, and with her mother like that, I didn’t want to pressure her, so I wasn’t in a hurry.

“But Yuan Yuan feels very guilty towards me because of the Su Yuwen incident! She is especially sorry that I had to suffer such an injustice. So I… mentioned it, and she immediately agreed!”

His tone was extremely smug!

Gu Qingyao’s mouth twitched. Her family’s little fox had managed to con this little rabbit!

Mo Yang clapped and looked pleased. “Oh, Fourth Cousin, you’ve finally used my strategy. I told you long ago to pretend to be pitiful, but you’ve always refused to listen to me! See! I’m so smart!”

Gu Qingyao: “…”
