Translator: 549690339

Lu Cong briefly described everything Gu Li had done to save Mrs. Song, and the listeners reacted in different ways.

The complexions of Mr. and Mrs. Song became extremely unsightly. After all, they had just taken advantage of Mo Shiting and Gu Li’s departure to badmouth Gu Li to the Song family members who arrived later, accusing her of not allowing the servants near the old lady, thereby delaying the rescue.

Now that the truth was out, it was a slap in the face for them.

Song Yunque immediately spoke up for Gu Li, “So it was sister-in-law Gu who saved grandmother. From now on, sister-in-law Gu will be the Song family’s benefactor. Uncle and Aunt, am I right?”

Song Xueming and Wan Yao looked at each other but kept silent.

The other members of the Song family, however, agreed and expressed their thanks to Gu Li in person.

Though the old lady was out of danger, she still needed a week of hospital observation.

They all waited outside her ward for a while. When she woke up, she didn’t want to see anyone and had them all leave.

When leaving the hospital, Song Yunque brazenly got into Mo Shiting’s car.

Lu Yang drove and Song Yunque sat in the passenger seat.

Once the car was on the road, he turned his head towards Gu Li, “Sister-in-law, my grandmother is a stubborn person and is used to having her way. If anything goes against her wishes, she will throw a fit. Be cautious in dealing with her. You can’t be tough, only gentle.”

“Okay, I understand. Thank you for the reminder.”

Gu Li was genuinely grateful.

She didn’t have many opportunities to interact with Mrs. Song, but she had already figured out her temperament, which was indeed as Song Yunque described.

Hearing their conversation, Mo Shiting raised his eyebrows and warned Song Yunque, “Mind your own business.”

“Whine, whine, whine.”

Song Yunque whined in a wronged tone, “Brother, I am considering sister-in-law’s interests. You don’t want her to be constantly troubled by grandmother, do you?”

“Ha…”

Gu Li chuckled at his antics, “Don’t worry, your brother will protect me.”

Speaking of this, she suddenly turned her head to look at Mo Shiting with a teasing smile, “Isn’t that right, Brother Ting?”

Mo Shiting stared intently at her, his lips parting as if to say something. Suddenly, the car brakes screeched, and Gu Li instinctively lunged towards him.

Reacting instinctively, he caught her in his arms. Immediately following, Lu Yang’s apologetic voice rang out, “Sorry, young master, a child ran onto the road.”

As soon as Lu Yang’s voice trailed off, they saw a woman holding a child standing on the roadside through the car window, looking extremely startled.

“Thank goodness nothing happened.”

Gu Li murmured, completely oblivious to the fact that she was lying on someone’s chest.

Song Yunque noticed and chuckled knowingly.

The car started again.

Finally realizing how intimately they were positioned, Gu Li’s face turned slightly red, and she quickly sat up straight.

Feeling her leave his arms, Mo Shiting felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

At this moment, Song Yunque turned his head again, “Oh, right. I watched that variety show of yours, Gu Li. It practically didn’t feature you at all. I don’t know who the miserable wretch is that intentionally cut your screen time. Once I find out, I’ll make sure they pay for it.”

The hand that Lu Yang used to grip the steering wheel trembled involuntarily.

The miserable wretch Song Yunque mentioned was his young master. He knew it, but he could not say it.

Thinking about this, Lu Yang sneaked a glance at the rearview mirror, only to catch a glimpse of the sharp look Mo Shiting was giving him. His hand trembled again.

Gu Li didn’t seem to mind, “It doesn’t matter. I don’t plan on becoming a celebrity anyways, so it’s okay if I have less screen time.”

As long as her master could see it, that’s all that really mattered. But would her master really see it? How reliable was Da Ha’s suggestion?

Every time she thought about her master, Gu Li couldn’t help feeling a bit dejected.

Watching her expressiveness, Mo Shiting caught a glimpse of her melancholy, and a shadow flickered in his eyes.. He couldn’t help but ask her, “If you don’t want to enter the entertainment industry, why did you participate in the variety show?”
