Smile in the Face of Everything

Zhang Hong, Zhang Tianhao, and others were stunned.

Could Xu Mo be any more low-key?

With solid evidence – both witnesses and physical proof – already in hand,

He still wanted to distance himself from the credit.

To claim that this good deed wasn’t his doing?

For anyone else,

They would be scrambling to take credit for it.

But Xu Mo?

Not only did he not seek credit,

He even wanted to pass the credit to someone else.

What an admirable character he has!

Zhang Hong coughed, looking serious as he said,

“Mo, don’t try to deny it. Does my old man Zhang Hong look that scary?”

“One is one, two is two.”

“If you’ve done it, just admit it. A real man should stand tall and accept his actions.”

This time, it was truly impossible to argue.

Xu Mo forced a bitter smile and awkwardly nodded.

“Yes – there is indeed such a thing.”

The ladies blinked.

Xu Mo always managed to do things that surprised them.

But for them, this was already nothing new.

Ahh!

The one who reacted most strongly was, of course, Xu Fuqiang.

Uncle Xu let out a sharp intake of breath.

His head full of question marks.

This kid Xu, not bad at all!

He’s been quite skilled at playing the underdog.

If it weren’t for Zhang Naixi’s persistence,

No one knows how things might have turned out.

Chances are, Xu Mo would have never admitted it.

Next, Zhang Hong and Xu Mo chatted for a while.

Of course, a return gift was inevitable.

But it would only take a few days.

That is, during Xu Mo’s wedding,

Zhang Hong decided to have the Zhang Family bring over some invaluable little treasures

As a wedding gift.

Because, after all, a wedding is a significant event.

And Zhang Hong took this matter very seriously.

He directly brought Xu Mo and Zhou Qiaoqiao, the new couple,

To the center of the banquet hall.

“Huh? What’s going on? What’s happening? Are there more good news tonight?”

“I don’t know! Whoa, Zhou Qiaoqiao from the Zhou family is actually quite pretty, huh! Hey – back when Xu Mo was chasing Shen Manni, why didn’t I notice that?”

“Is there something major about to be announced?”

“Isn’t that already over?”

The crowd murmured among themselves,

Not sure what was happening.

They looked at each other, confused.

Zhang Hong, with a smile on his face, took the microphone and said: “There is one more big announcement tonight!”

The crowd fell silent.

All eyes turned to Zhang Hong.

After a pause, he continued,

“The wedding of the couple beside me will be advanced, happening within the next few days.”

“The exact date will be finalized tonight, and I will notify everyone.”

Only then did the guests understand what was going on.

This was a huge reveal!

Not to mention the wedding being advanced,

Back then,

Xu Mo was extremely reluctant to marry Zhou Qiaoqiao from the Zhou family.

He had his heart set on pursuing Shen Manni.

But now, it seemed he had seen the error of his ways.

“Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!!!!!!!! I never thought the fastest wedding in our circle would be Xu Mo’s.”

“Oh my God!!! I’m freaking out!! Just when I found a decent guy in Magic City, he’s gone.”

“Marriage is a man’s grave. What does marriage bring to men? Yes, it’s restrictions! I thought Xu Mo would become a case study for me, for not wanting to marry. Oh damn– who just hit the back of my head—“

“Don’t you dare talk about not getting married! Within six months – no, three months – if I don’t see my daughter-in-law, you’re out of this house! I’ll just start over!”

“Dad, calm down, I’m not actively looking, right? I’m not looking for the expensive type, just the right one.”

“Looking for the expensive type – do we even have that kind of money? How could I have given birth to such a degenerate!”

Xu Mo’s case

Was being used by many wealthy families to discipline their children.

After all, they were already at the age to marry.

Not passing on the family line and still relying on their parents?

This generation was hopeless.

They pinned their hopes on the next.

To get back to the point,

Going back to Xu Mo’s side,

【This wasn’t really my choice, though,】

【This time, it wasn’t me consciously pushing the story forward】

【Everything just happened naturally】

【Huh – why is that demoness holding my hand?】

When Xu Mo realized,

His hand felt a warm touch.

Warm and comforting.

Zhou Qiaoqiao blinked at Xu Mo, then pursed her lips and smiled.

Zhang Hong handed the microphone to Zhou Qiaoqiao,

“Speak a few words, you newlyweds.”

Xu Mo’s personality, Zhang Hong knew.

The kid didn’t like to dwell on troublesome things.

Zhou Qiaoqiao took the microphone, nodding to Zhang Hong, and still didn’t let go of Xu Mo’s hand.

This was her rightful husband. Not a stranger; there’s nothing to fear.

“Because of certain circumstances, the wedding has been advanced. First, I apologize to everyone here~”

Half of this was for the guests,

The other half was for the female leads.

Several piercing gazes shot straight at Zhou Qiaoqiao.

Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled back at them.

Of course,

These people weren’t just anyone.

They were Yang Jingying, Han Zhiqi, and the others.
