Chapter 70: Can’t Bear to Part Mo Shenbai threw the tissue into the trash can. His eyes were piercing and flashed with determination as he said, “Xu Jialu, there’s no point in talking about this. She’s already my wife.”

Mo Shenbai had long known about Xu Jialu’s stance regarding his and Xu Youyou’s relationship. Hence, he could only resort to such a despicable method to keep Xu Youyou next to him. As for the consequences, he would deal with them as they came.

Xu Jialu sneered. “If I had a knife right now, I’d stab you to death!”

“You won’t,” Mo Shenbai said calmly, “You can’t bear turning Youyou into a young widow.”

“F*ck!” Xu Jialu cursed again upon hearing these words. He was angry, but he felt helpless at the same time.

‘I really can’t do anything! This bast*rd isn’t only my boss, but he’s my brother-in-law as well! F*ck!’

Finally, Xu Jialu said through gritted teeth, “Mo Shenbai, I’m warning you! If you dare to touch my sister, I’ll fight you to the death! It doesn’t matter even if we’re good friends!”

Mo Shenbai took another sheet of tissue and began wiping the table as he said slowly, “I won’t force her to do anything against her will.”

In other words, unless Xu Youyou was willing, he would not do anything to her.

“Also, don’t ever use your despicable capitalist’s methods against my sister again!”

“I won’t do anything to influence her judgment and feelings anymore,” Mo Shenbai said. Xu Youyou was now his heart, his person. He had time and patience to wait for her.

Xu Jialu took a deep breath and said warningly, “You better clean up that mess overseas. If you make Youyou sad, our friendship is over!”

Upon hearing Xu Jialu’s words, Mo Shenbai’s eyes darkened. However, he did not say anything.

......

Xu Jialu turned around and left. As soon as he opened the door, Pei Chuan stumbled and almost fell into the room. He quickly dodged and avoided Pei Chuan.

Pei Chuan hurriedly grabbed the doorknob to stabilize himself before he smiled sheepishly.

Xu Jialu scoffed and said, “Remember to buy me a new cup!”

‘D*mn it! That was a special cup that I bought after waiting in line for two hours!’

…

Xu Youyou did not use up her one-week leave and returned to classes after coming back from Ireland.

Some students were quite interested in Mo Shenbai’s gossip. Hence, after class, they sought confirmation from her.

However, before Xu Youyou could reply, Su Lanxu said unhappily, “What does it have to do with all of you?”

Su Lanxu was a year older than her classmates. She came from a wealthy family and kept a high profile in school. Hence, no one dared to offend her. As soon as she spoke, everyone found an excuse to leave.

“Lanlan…” Xu Youyou called out with a faint smile on her face.

Su Lanxu took a seat next to Xu Youyou and said teasingly, “Impressive, Youyou. You actually registered your marriage overseas!”

“Other people might not know, but you know very well about my relationship with Mo Shenbai,” Xu Youyou said as she tidied up her things, “We did it to clear the rumors on the Internet. After all, it might affect the company. We’ll get a divorce after a year.”

“Oh, is that so?” Su Lanxu asked meaningfully, “Can some people bear going separate ways a year later?”

“Why not?” Xu Youyou answered without hesitation.

“Oh, I’m not talking about you. Why are you getting so defensive?” Su Lanxu said with a cunning smile on her face.

Xu Youyou glared at Su Lanxu and pouted.

Su Lanxu did not fall for Xu Youyou’s cute act. Instead, she reached out for Xu Youyou’s iPad.

By the time, Xu Youyou regained her senses, it was too late to stop Su Lanxu.
