After Mistakenly Binding The Matchmaker System

Chapter 65

The three faced each other, and inexplicable sparks flew everywhere.

Mo Yanzhi couldn’t understand why someone was always trying to steal his person every time. If he wasn’t worried about Li Shu’s displeasure, he would announce his relationship with Li Shu to the whole world and declare his sovereignty.

“President Mo.” Under Mo Yanzhi’s intimidating gaze, Su Qing took a step back. Even though his status had changed greatly, he was still just a small shrimp in Mo Yanzhi’s eyes, with no possibility of resisting.

“The junior the Chen family recognized?”

This was a major event that happened in the capital while Li Shu was away filming. The current head of the Chen family originally had an older brother, who was groomed to be the successor by the former head of the family. This child lived up to expectations from a young age. Except for marriage, the previous head was satisfied with him in every aspect.

Like many plotlines in dog blood novels, the rich son fell in love with an outstanding girl from a humble background, and faced strong opposition from the family. At that time, the Chen family was already planning to marry into another prominent family. The girl was the youngest daughter of the family. She was very favored, had studied abroad, and was sweet-tongued. Both families were satisfied after meeting, and the marriage was arranged promptly.

Unexpectedly, the heir of the Chen family found someone he wanted to spend his life with. Disregarding the family’s opposition, he married the girl. Of course the former head of the Chen family couldn’t accept the heir being tied down by a commoner girl, and even planned to give up everything for her. So he sent someone to warn the girl. Despite several suppressions, their relationship only grew stronger.

It just so happened that the girl got pregnant at this time, so the previous head of the Chen family gave in and allowed the girl to enter the Chen family.

The girl from the prominent family that was originally going to get married was unwilling, and somehow got involved with the current head of the Chen family. The two sides soon cooperated closely, one wanted the person and the other wanted power.

A plane crash took the lives of both husband and wife. The former head of the Chen family discovered some truth, but by then, his younger son had grown up, so he had no choice but to secretly send the grandson away to prevent him from being killed off in some accident.

The child sent away was Su Qing.

Later, the former head of the Chen family passed away, the Chen family’s power struggles ensued, and the connection between Su Qing and the Chen family was completely severed.

When Su Qing left the Chen family, he was too young to remember anything. Since childhood, he had lived in an orphanage without anyone telling him about his past. He always thought he was just an ordinary orphan.

This was exactly what Su Qing wanted to tell Li Shu. His return to the Chen family was already set in stone, and the Chen family would soon make this matter public. He wanted to tell Li Shu about this himself rather than let Li Shu find out from the news.

“Brother Li, I didn’t mean to hide anything from you. This matter wasn’t settled until recently, and I wanted to wait until there was a definite outcome before telling you.” Su Qing held a porcelain white cup in his hands, looking at the person sitting across from him through the mist of hot steam.

When the future was uncertain, he dared not bring danger to Li Shu’s side. If he did, he would not forgive himself, not to mention the man next to Li Shu.

Since Mo Yanzhi had come to the airport, it was naturally impossible for Li Shu and Su Qing to be alone together. Mo Yanzhi instructed his assistant to book a private room and followed along.

In front of Li Shu, both men maintained a superficial friendliness, but countless battles of will had been waged out where Li Shu couldn’t see.

Even with the unexpected Mo Yanzhi present, Su Qing still revealed these old things. He knew that even if he kept silent, Mo Yanzhi would eventually find out.

“Why would you think I would be angry with you over this matter? The path you choose is your own, and I have no right to interfere. You just need to think it through yourself. However, if you choose to return to the Chen family, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you much in the future.”

Knowing the truth from back then, Su Qing would definitely seek revenge for his parents when he returned to the Chen family. Regardless of his future plans, his current focus would undoubtedly be on the Chen family.

In the original plot, the blackened Su Qing swallowed the entire Chen Group with the help of a mysterious person. He renamed and restructured it, abandoning most redundant industries. The Chen Group fell overnight, and the love-hate relationship between the protagonist gong and the protagonist shou truly began. The original plot did not mention that Su Qing was the child of the Chen family who had been abandoned, but considering what Su Qing had just said, the recent decline in happiness value should be related to his knowing his identity.

However, all this was supposed to happen late into the plot. With Li Shu, a butterfly who didn’t play by the rules, the plot had long veered off course. After various plot lines collapsing in the previous world, Li Shu could be said to be quite adaptable now.

“Brother Li…”

“Ding Ling—”

The ringing of the phone interrupted Su Qing’s words. Li Shu took out his phone from his pocket. It was Qin Ran calling.

He stood up. “Sorry, I need to take this call.”

After Li Shu left, the atmosphere between the two men sitting opposite each other suddenly became tense, and they both showed obvious hostility towards each other.

To Mo Yanzhi, Su Qing’s appearance was unpleasant no matter how he looked at it. He wasn’t a good person to begin with and insisted on pretending to be a rabbit in front of Li Shu, just to take advantage of Li Shu’s soft heart.

Similarly, Su Qing also couldn’t stand Mo Yanzhi. After stripping away that big boss filter, he saw Mo Yanzhi as a possessive villain who forcibly kept Li Shu by his side, and was completely unworthy of Li Shu. Once he took control of the Chen family, he would definitely rescue Brother Li from this man’s clutches.

“I say,” Mo Yanzhi lowered his voice, controlling the volume so that the person on the phone couldn’t hear, “if you have any ill intentions toward Shu Shu, I advise you to get rid of them as soon as possible. Otherwise, you won’t want to know the consequences. Also, don’t have any inappropriate thoughts. Shu Shu is mine.”

“Is that so? But Brother Li is an individual, not an object,” Su Qing replied in the same low voice. “He has his own thoughts. Isn’t it disrespectful for you to say ‘Shu Shu is mine’? Oh, and one more thing, do you know how much trouble Brother Li has encountered because of you during this time? President Mo, you have a good memory, so you probably don’t need me to list them one by one, right?”

This statement hit a nerve with Mo Yanzhi, and he retorted with a dark face, “That’s a matter between Shu Shu and me. There’s no need for an outsider like you to meddle!”

Mo Yanzhi deliberately emphasized the word “outsider”.

The two men went back and forth, refusing to back down, with each sentence aiming to hit the other’s sore spot. There was no trace of the demeanor of a business tycoon or a noble family’s nouveau riche.

When Li Shu finished the call and returned, the two men quickly resumed their appearance of getting along well, astonishing 1314, who had been watching the whole time.

1314: What should have been a pair of lovers unexpectedly turned into a shura field under the host’s charm.

“Sorry for the wait.”

Mo Yanzhi stood up to pull out a chair for Li Shu, and only sat down after Li Shu was seated. His movements were skillful, indicating that it wasn’t the first time he had done this.

Seeing this scene, Su Qing’s eyes flickered with some emotion that flashed past so quickly it was hard to grasp.

The way the two interacted was somewhat different from what he had expected, but so what? His decision would never change.

Before parting, Su Qing found an opportunity to say to Mo Yanzhi alone, “President Mo, if you ever hurt him, I will snatch him away from you no matter the cost!”

“Rest assured, you will never have that opportunity!” Mo Yanzhi looked at Su Qing indifferently, with a chill in his eyes.

How could he give up the person he finally managed to catch?

Qin Ran had called Li Shu to discuss work matters. “Seeking The Sword” had finished shooting early, giving Li Shu a considerable vacation time. Coincidentally, Jonathan, with whom Li Shu had worked before, sent an email asking if Li Shu was available at the end of December, as he might need to fly to the United States then.

There was also something related to Wei Yangyun. With the release of the new album, Wei Yangyun had to appear on a variety show to promote it. Since Li Shu had left the crew early, he could make it to the recording of the program. Wei Yangyun wanted him to be a special guest.

Li Shu agreed to both of these things, but Mo Yanzhi wasn’t very happy after learning about them. He had been looking forward to Li Shu‘s return for a long time, only to have Li Shu leave for work again after enjoying only a few days of their time alone together.

Mo Yanzhi felt like a little wife guarding an empty boudoir from ancient times, except he was neither little nor delicate.

After returning to the capital, Li Shu went to the company and once again encountered the great actor, Fu Xilan, in Qin Ran’s office. Fu Xilan was in a good mood, while Qin Ran had a helpless expression.

When Li Shu entered, he happened to hear Qin Ran saying, “Alright, alright, I’ll go along with you. Just don’t cause trouble this time. I’m tired of cleaning up after you all the time.”

The two were very close together, with Fu Xilan’s hand resting on Qin Ran’s waist. After receiving a fierce look, he let go of his hand and sat down on the sofa aside.

“Did I disturb Brother Qin and Brother Fu?” Li Shu asked.

“Ahem, no, it’s fine,” Qin Ran coughed in embarrassment. He waved his hand, and stopped engaging in meaningless conversation with Fu Xilan. “You’ve been working hard lately, have a seat.”

He took out a neatly packaged album from the nearby shelf and handed it to Li Shu. “This is from Young Master Wei Yangyun. He wanted to visit you, but the director refused to agree, so he could only leave the stuff here.”

Wei Yangyun sent not only the album but also some merchandise that would be sold alongside the album. Li Shu rummaged through the large paper bag and found a pair of familiar dolls.

—They were the characters he played in the music video.

One black and one white, and exquisitely crafted. The dolls were in a chibi style and very cute.

The moment Mo Yanzhi saw them, he couldn’t take his eyes off them.

‘How could they be so adorable!!!

Tiny, cute, and portable Shu Shu!’

After unpacking the items and placing them on the glass coffee table, Li Shu found various posters and postcards, some belonging to him but most belonging to Wei Yangyun.

Li Shu was organizing these items and planned to find a storage locker to put them away. When he asked Mo Yanzhi, the latter took his hand and led him to the study.

Li Shu rarely visited the study. Sometime ago, Mo Yanzhi renovated it, opened up the next room, enlarged the space, and added a lot of empty display cabinets. He knew what these were for without asking.

Sure enough, Mo Yanzhi’s gentle voice sounded in his ears, “This is where you can put your things.”

Li Shu: “You’ve worked hard. Then I’ll give you a little gift.”

So, the employees of the Mo Group suddenly found a pair of black and white dolls on their boss’s desk.

!!!

When did the boss develop such a hobby?!
