Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2146: Chapter 2140: I Will Never Settle

Mr. Mo’s words left Nangong Susu speechless. She was being pressured about marriage again. Does every acquaintance have to ask her when she’s getting married?

"Mr. Mo, why aren’t you married?" Nangong Susu didn’t want to discuss her personal affairs, so she changed the topic.

"Haven’t found the right one for me." Mr. Mo knew what Nangong Susu meant, but he still answered her question.

"I’m like you, Mr. Mo. I can’t find someone who matches me perfectly, and I absolutely won’t settle to marry for the sake of marrying." Nangong Susu would never do something she doesn’t want just because her age calls for marriage.

"Why are you so stubborn? Here’s the deal: from today onwards, apart from working hours, you need to go out wherever you can. Whatever you do, you’re not allowed to hang around the hospital." Mr. Mo laid down the ultimatum.

"Mr. Mo, isn’t that a bit much? Wouldn’t I be better off staying at the hospital where I can study the cases more?" Nangong Susu looked at Mr. Mo speechlessly, wondering if he needed to be so extreme.

"No need for that. There are others in the hospital to handle things; you just need to get out and explore. If there’s something urgent, I’ll call you back." Mr. Mo knew she didn’t agree with her family, and that’s why she wasn’t loved by them. Otherwise, she wouldn’t live alone and spend so much time in the hospital. What normal girl would do such a thing? Only Nangong Susu would.

Mr. Mo felt for her, so ever since he discovered her talent, he kept an eye on her, eventually taking her under his wing, and guiding her till today.

"Mr. Mo, you really don’t need to worry. The matter of marriage, when fate decides, it will naturally come, and if there’s no fate, it won’t happen even if you rush it." Nangong Susu felt really indifferent about this matter.

"While that is true, you also need to put in some effort yourself." Mr. Mo shook his head. Although she wasn’t his daughter, he had always treated her as his own, so he had to care about her affairs.

"Got it, Mr. Mo. Let’s go over there and have a look. These outstanding people are always trouble magnets." Nangong Susu thought of Chu Molin’s looks and aura; surely, he was the center of attention, and Qin Xue was an equally excellent woman. This family really had it all; the good things all ended up with them.

But what could she do? Heaven favored them so much, leaving a mere mortal like her to stand by and just enjoy the view.

"Alright, let’s go." Mr. Mo thought for a bit and agreed, since Nangong Susu was right; exceptional people easily attract jealousy.

The crowd from earlier fell silent once Mr. Mo arrived. They had assumed Chu Molin had no background, but it turned out he had a strong future and was also the eldest son of The Chus. Seeing him bantering with Mr. Mo, they were even more intimidated, wondering who these prominent people were, each of them influential figures, even if rarely seen in the Imperial Capital.

If they had known from the start how powerful Chu Molin was, no matter what he said or did, they definitely wouldn’t have spoken as they did, especially that woman who had been hit earlier. She looked at Chu Xiaoqiao standing nearby, not anticipating that once that tomboy changed clothes, she’d look so stunning. It drove her crazy that she hadn’t noticed this woman was Chu Xiaoqiao, otherwise, she wouldn’t be in such a plight now.

Yet, there is no remedy for regret in this world; otherwise, she would have pondered carefully before acting.
