Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2282: Chapter 86: You Think Saying Sorry Is Enough?

"Shi Xi also returned to G City?"

Qin Qingqing’s voice carried a hint of surprise.

Last night, she saw Shi Xi at Old Master Ye’s birthday banquet, and now she was back.

"Yeah, since she couldn’t marry Ye Zhan, she came back."

Mo Ziye’s mocking tone carried a faint chill.

Back then, he had people investigate Shi Dongping for a long time without uncovering any issues, but instead, they discovered Shi Xi’s secret of having had an abortion.

Thinking of something, a cold glint flashed in Mo Ziye’s eyes, but they quickly returned to a gentle warmth. He said to Qingqing on the other end of the phone, "Qingqing, I’ll tell you in detail when I get back." Then he hung up the phone.

Mo Ziye immediately dialed Mo Xiuchen’s number.

Standing up, he walked away from the desk to the floor-to-ceiling window. As the call connected, Mo Xiuchen’s gentle voice came through, "Ziye, what’s the matter?"

"Dad, I told Mom what you said at noon, and she got angry. You’d better come back and keep her company yourself. And, Qingqing said she’ll wait for you and Uncle Qin to come back before getting the marriage license with me."

"Did you mess something up?"

Upon hearing that Wen Ran was upset, Mo Xiuchen’s attitude towards his son changed from summer to autumn.

Mo Ziye said innocently, "How could I mess something up? I just said you and Uncle Qin would only come back after avenging Aunt An and asked me to take good care of her and the family."

"I knew you would mess it up."

Mo Xiuchen sneered in anger. freewёbnoνel.com

The same words, when spoken by him, could mean something completely different.

Since coming to the Imperial City, he hadn’t called Ranran yet.

It wasn’t because he didn’t miss her, nor because he was too busy.

It was a small guilty conscience; he hadn’t told her he would stay here before coming, nor had he told her that he took Qing Yang away...

"Dad, you and Uncle Qin hurry back, Qingqing listens to me usually, but when it comes to something as important as marriage, I have no say at all. Especially with Mom, I can’t handle her."

"I’ll call your mom in a bit, don’t exaggerate things. We know full well whether Qingqing listens to you. If Uncle Qin could come back, I wouldn’t be staying here."

In the end, Mo Ziye still couldn’t convince Mo Xiuchen.

He furrowed his brows, returned to the desk, sat down, tossed the phone on the desk, picked up his water cup, and took a couple of sips, pondering for a few seconds.

Pressing his lips together, he unlocked the phone with his index finger and dialed Ye Zhan’s number.

After two rings, a deep and powerful "Hello" accompanied by faint noise came through. Mo Ziye didn’t exchange pleasantries, directly cutting to the chase, "Ye Zhan, have you found any clues?"

"How could it be that fast? If it were that easy, wouldn’t you have found something long ago?"

"Who said I didn’t find anything? I’m pretty sure now that the person who killed Aunt An is either Shi Dongping or Shi Dongliang, or maybe both of them."

"Without solid evidence, don’t use the word ’sure.’ Weren’t you getting close to Shi Xi to avenge Aunt An? Why did you suddenly want to break up with her? I’ll let you know when I have news."

"Didn’t you waste the opportunity to marry into the Shi Family to gather evidence of their crimes?" Mo Ziye retorted with a cold laugh.

Nowadays, the Shi Family values Ye Zhan highly.

Yet he didn’t directly take both Shi Xi and her sister Shi Zhen under his wing.

"This kind of deceitful thing, I’m not as good at it as you."

"Don’t think that wearing a military uniform makes you a righteous gentleman." Not waiting for Ye Zhan to retort, Mo Ziye changed the subject, "I just remembered, you should check into the man who caused Shi Xi’s abortion."

"What man caused Shi Xi’s abortion? You haven’t given me any information?"

Ye Zhan sounded confused, and due to the earlier taunt, his tone was unpleasant.

"Were you injured?"

Mo Ziye finally heard clearly what the noise over there was.

He couldn’t help but ask with concern.

"It wasn’t me; Jinchen got hurt a bit."

They had just returned from completing a mission an hour ago.

"Tang Jinchen, he won’t die, right?"

"..."

Ye Zhan remained silent.

Mo Ziye chuckled and said, "If his injuries are severe enough to stop him from performing tasks, he can come to G City for a few days."

"He goes to G City, and then you send Gu Zhitong away?"

Ye Zhan’s words caused a certain injured man’s expression to subtly change, his gaze suddenly sharp.

The last time Mo Ziye caused trouble, Tang Jinchen didn’t know about it, but Ye Zhan found out unintentionally.

"Don’t pin the blame on me. I’ll send you the relevant information in a bit. Check it out as soon as possible and let me know."

"No problem, once I find out, I’ll tell you immediately."

After finishing their conversation filled with sarcasm, they switched to discussing serious matters earnestly.

"By the way, I also need you to do something for me." Before hanging up, Ye Zhan suddenly remembered something.

Mo Ziye asked nonchalantly, "What thing?"

"The Ye Family hasn’t given up yet, especially Shi Zhen. I need you to deal with her."

"Ye Zhan, are you joking? Shi Zhen is in the Imperial City, and she’s deeply in love with you. I’m thousands of miles away; how am I supposed to deal with her?"

"That’s your problem."

Ye Zhan directly ended the call with Mo Ziye.

Mo Ziye coldly laughed at the disconnected call,

Ye Zhan really thinks too highly of him, wanting him to deal with his romantic troubles. It’s not like he has nothing better to do.

——

At 5:30 in the afternoon, Mo Ziye received a call from Zhang Minghui, saying he and Mo Xin were about to reach G City, asking where he should take Mo Xin.

"Just go directly to Yi Pin Xuan."

Mo Ziye instructed coolly before hanging up the phone.

He went home to pick up Qin Qingqing.

By the time they arrived at Yi Pin Xuan, Zhang Minghui and Mo Xin had already been waiting for a few minutes.

Mo Ziye, holding Qin Qingqing’s hand, pushed open the door to the private room, his narrow eyes coldly sweeping over the two people inside.

Zhang Minghui immediately stood up.

Mo Xin, upon meeting Mo Ziye’s gaze, felt like a storm was stirring in her heart, making it hard to maintain her composure, causing her to forget to stand up.

Mo Ziye led Qin Qingqing into the private room and approached the table. As he reached out to pull a chair for Qingqing to sit down,

Mo Xin abruptly stood up, causing the chair to make a noise.

Qin Qingqing looked up at the sound and saw Mo Xin, realizing her face was somewhat pale.

Their eyes met.

Qingqing’s eyes were clear and calm as she looked at Mo Xin.

Mo Xin’s emotions shifted several times before she finally bowed deeply to Qin Qingqing and stiffly said, "Qingqing, I’m sorry."

"Do you think a simple apology is enough?"

Mo Ziye’s eyes shot out a cold glint, and his aura instantly chilled.

Mo Xin’s face grew even paler; she tightly pressed her lips together and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"What you owe us is not a simple apology, but a detailed explanation. Why did you do that back then, and who was advising you?" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Mo Ziye’s words were icy, and his gaze towards Mo Xin carried not a hint of familial warmth.
