Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict
Chapter 2228: Chapter 32: One Mountain Cannot Hold Two TigersChapter 2228: Chapter 32: One Mountain Cannot Hold Two Tigers
The spacious living room quieted down instantly because of Mo Xiuchen’s words.
Everyone’s gaze turned toward Mo Ziye, who came in together with Gu Kai.
His tall and slender figure was wrapped in a finely tailored, well-fitting suit, complementing his god-like chiseled handsome face, with a touch of aloofness amidst his elegance and noble demeanor.
When his eyes met the sight of Ye Zhan standing by the sofa, a fleeting glimmer passed through his deep eyes.
The corner of his mouth curved into a faint smile, and he didn’t linger on Ye Zhan, instead addressing his father Mo Xiuchen first. “Dad, I didn’t expect the house to be this lively. Just now when I met Uncle outside, I thought he was alone.”
At this point, Mo Ziye greeted Wen Jin, Luo Haofeng, Bai Xiaoxiao, and others one by one.
Polite and modest toward the elders, without a trace of arrogance.
Finally, he stopped in front of the sofa.
His gaze swept over Tang Jinchen and landed back on Ye Zhan. “Ye Zhan, long time no see.”
“Long time no see.”
Ye Zhan looked at Mo Ziye’s outstretched hand.
His eyes flickered as he reached out to shake hands with him.
After the words, as simple as they could be, Ye Zhan’s hand, upon shaking with Mo Ziye, felt his strength.
Both had warm and gentle expressions, showing no signs of the underlying competition in their grip.
Speaking of which, back then Ye Zhan had once tried to touch Qin Qingqing’s face and was challenged by Mo Ziye, who was two years younger.
The two had fought once.
Though Ye Zhan was older than Mo Ziye, he didn’t gain any advantage.
Years later, today, Mo Ziye once again startled Ye Zhan.
“How long are you two going to shake hands?”
Beside them, Tang Jinchen watched Mo Ziye and Ye Zhan’s secret contest, fearing they might fight like when they were kids.
He chuckled and asked.
The two glanced at him and released their hands simultaneously.
Ye Zhan was the first to speak, “Mo Ziye, if we fight again now, who will win?”
His mouth curled into a mischievous smile, watching Mo Ziye’s unchanged expression.
“Draw.”
Mo Ziye lowered his gaze and calmly uttered two words.
“You two are not kids anymore, are you really going to fight upon meeting?”
Tang Jinchen looked at them incredulously.
Ye Zhan isn’t the type to cause trouble; isn’t he usually kind and warm towards comrades in the army? Why does he become like this when he sees Mo Ziye…
He couldn’t quite express this feeling, but it seemed Ye Zhan and Mo Ziye couldn’t coexist in peace like two tigers on a mountain.
It was as if both wanted to take the other down.
Mo Ziye, though his expression was calm, lacked the gentleness and warmth he’d shown while greeting the elders earlier.
Instead, he was in a stance to brawl with Ye Zhan anytime.
“I think so too.”
Ye Zhan chuckled, “There’s nothing to fight for if it’s a draw. When the time comes when one can surpass the other, we’ll have a good fight.”
“I’m always ready.”
Mo Ziye answered calmly and confidently.
Turning his gaze to Wen Ran, who was sitting beside Mo Xiuchen, he smiled and asked, “Mom, where did Momo take Qingqing and Qingling?”
“Maybe they’re watching a movie on the third floor.”
Wen Ran said uncertainly.
A few minutes ago, Momo called them upstairs to watch a movie, and the three went together.
“I’ll go upstairs to change clothes first.”
Mo Ziye said goodbye and went upstairs.
Ye Zhan, watching Mo Ziye leave, said to Tang Jinchen beside him, “Jinchen, it’s getting late. Let’s not disturb Uncle Mo and Aunt Wen any longer.”
“Okay, I’ll call Qingqing to come down so we can go home.”
Tang Jinchen took out his phone under Ye Zhan’s gentle smile. Ye Zhan didn’t voice agreement or disagreement.
Instead, he bid farewell to the elders.
On the third floor.
Momo, Qin Qingqing, and Bai Qingling were deeply moved watching a movie on the sofa when her phone rang.
Seeing the call, she stood up and said, “Sister Momo, Qingling, you two keep watching, my cousin is calling; he’s surely urging me to go home.”
“They can’t find home themselves? Let them go back on their own. Qingqing, stay with me tonight.”
Momo said with a smile, pulling Qin Qingqing’s hand.
Bai Qingling chimed in, “Exactly, Qingqing, let’s finish the movie, we’ll all stay at Sister Momo’s place tonight.”
Qin Qingqing shook her head, “Next time, my cousin and Ye Zhan just moved to my place today; if I don’t go home tonight, my ears will have no peace tomorrow morning.”
She’ll be nagged endlessly by her grandpa and granddad.
Qin Qingqing walked out from the sofa as she answered and headed toward the door.
“Hello, cousin.”
She called out, reaching to open the door.
Tang Jinchen’s voice came through, “Qingqing, come down, we’re going home.”
“…”
Opening the door and seeing the man standing outside, Qin Qingqing forgot to say the “okay” hanging on her lips.
Her beautiful almond eyes looked at the man’s handsome brows in surprise.
Such an unexpected sight, her heart stopped for a second, then began racing wildly.
On the sofa, Momo and Bai Qingling also saw Mo Ziye standing at the door.
Neither spoke.
They turned back, continuing to watch the movie.
Qin Qingqing gathered herself, presenting a faint smile, “Brother Ziyi, why are you back?”
Mo Ziye just looked at her, not speaking, but made her feel an unusual pressure.
She wanted to step out.
But with his tall figure there, she seemed unable to exit at all.
Thinking if she should ask him to step aside.
Her wrist was suddenly caught by a large hand, and the man gently pulled her out of the room.
“Brother Ziyi…”
Qin Qingqing was pulled into the next room, her body pressed against the wall. Her watery eyes stared vigilantly at Mo Ziye’s cold brows before her.
Being enveloped by his presence, her breath became uncontrollably erratic.
“Why casually bring unfamiliar men home?”
Mo Ziye watched Qin Qingqing’s wary gaze, a hollow feeling in his chest, surrounded by a chill.
She was on guard against him but trusted unfamiliar men?
Qin Qingqing blinked forcefully.
“My cousin is not an outsider.”
“Ha!”
Mo Ziye sneered.
“What about Ye Zhan, is he not an outsider too?”
Qin Qingqing bit her lip lightly, avoiding his sharp gaze, also dodging his hot breath on her delicate face.
Being pressed against the wall by him like this, she felt utterly unsafe.
Especially since she had been forcefully kissed by him once after returning to the country.
Afraid he might suddenly kiss her again… especially since he now had a girlfriend, and just returned from her side…
All her emotions quickly ebbed like a tide, even her heartbeat slowed.
Facing his gaze again, she calmly said, “Ye Zhan is also not an outsider; he is the boyfriend my grandpa and granddad chose for me.”
