Chapter 218 - You’re Here Too
Chapter 218: You’re Here Too
Steamed pork ribs with garlic pumpkin, boiled fish in salt and pepper sauce, fried eggplant, stir-fried vegetables… Mo Li also grabbed some rice. After what she went through, she needed some carbs to recover her strength.
Just as she was about to indulge, she heard the exclamation of the female nurses and doctors from the medical team. “Oh my God, who is he! He’s so handsome!”
Before the praises ended, another voice exclaimed, “Look at him! His looks is perfect. But he… is a bit on the thin side.”
Mo Li rolled her eyes. Have these people being cooped up at the military base for too long? No matter how handsome a person is, they can’t be more handsome than Quan Yu. Mo Li followed their gaze and looked over. Instantly her rice fell onto the place. Mo Li immediately averted her eyes. Jesus, why is he here?
Mo Li snapped back to her senses and prayed that Quan Yu didn’t notice her. She would finish her meal and leave as soon as possible.
“Quan Yu!” Lu Qin was delighted to see Quan Yu. She didn’t expect to run into him at this godforsaken place. Even though Lu Qin had no idea why he was there, she was happy to see him. She waved at Quan Yu and edged over to free up space for Quan Yu to sit…
“Do you know how much danger you’ve put yourself in today?” Quan Yu didn’t even acknowledge Lu Qin. He walked past her and stopped before Mo Li.
Lu Qin slowly pulled back her arm. She was in great disbelief. Did Quan Yu just ignore me? They were childhood friends. She was 2 years younger than Quan Yu so Quan Yu had always treated her well. Quan Yu had never raised his voice against her but today he had completely skipped over her existence. Lu Qin was confused. She turned and saw it was Mo Li whom Quan Yu was addressing. They know each other?
“Erm, you got the wrong person.” Mo Li really didn’t want to entangle further with this man so she pretended to not recognize him. She picked up her tray and tried to move to another table. “Excuse me, sir…”
But as she moved left, Quan Yu also moved left; she turned right and Quan Yu turned right.
Mo Li caught Lu Qin’s incredulous expression and she sighed internally. Mo Li gritted her teeth and sat back down. She tried to treat Quan Yu as air. Mo Li didn’t want to have too much of interaction with Lu Qin due to the girl’s history with the original Mo Li but Quan Yu’s appearance had ruined everything. Mo Li could already foresee the trouble in the future.
Thinking back, Lin Qi did talk to Quan Yu in private that day, it would explain why Quan Yu was there. They were close to the border, so Quan Yu’s appearance here probably had to do with the Quan Family’s little-known involvement with the border people.
Mo Li prayed that Quan Yu would not make a big scene but her prayers were not heard. A pair of black sports shoes appeared before her eyes and then the spoon was forcibly taken out from her hands.
Mo Li looked up and saw Quan Yu dressed in casual slacks and long-sleeved shirt. It accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist. It made Quan Yu look tall and handsome. No wonder the girls were so crazy for him earlier.
“No way! Who is this Mo Li? Why does she seem to know everyone?”
“He’s so handsome. If he’s my friend, I’d probably faint from excitement.”
“But did you guys see what happened earlier? Doctor Lu seems to know this man too but he…”
“Shush! She can hear you!”
…
Lu Qin planned to walk over to talk to Quan Yu but when she saw how fully focused Quan Yu was on Mo Li, she stopped as the fury burned through her.
Meanwhile, Quan Li stared at Mo Li with a hint of undetectable anger in his deep, dark eyes. Has that old man Lin Qi lost his mind? How can he allow Mo Li to do such a risky thing? The car was right beside the cliff and Mo Li was only five steps away from it. If the car tipped over, Mo Li would be dragged down with it!
Other than Mo Li, Qin Xuan who sat beside her was feeling the pressure. He could feel Quan Yu’s desire to murder him.
“Still pretending not to know me? I’ll recognize you no matter what! I’m familiar with every side of you! Have the people of the Mo Family gone crazy to allow a high school student to come to a place like this? Do you know what place is this?” It was clear that Quan Yu was very angry but he found that he couldn’t raise his voice at Mo Li.
