Mo Wenjie flew to Zhongjiang City in Ontario alone.
He took a taxi to the city center. Not in a hurry to find Jia Yunting, he went to the vicinity of his company to get a better understanding of his situation. It is not advisable to judge a situation based on one-sided information.
Mo Wenjie got off at the Yun Tian International Hotel, and walked into the hotel lobby.
The front desk receptionist politely asked, "Sir, are you alone?"
Mo Wenjie smiled and nodded.
The receptionist continued to ask, "Sir, are you here for a meal or for accommodation?"
Mo Wenjie answered, "I'll first handle the check-in process, and then I'll have some food!"
The receptionist politely said, "Sir, please show me your ID card so I can assist you with your check-in."
Mo Wenjie completed the check-in procedure and headed towards the elevator with his room card in hand.
Suddenly, a stunning beauty came up to him, gave him a glance, and said in a woman's voice, "Hello, handsome guy. I'm Zhao Qingchen. Are you staying here?"
Mo Wenjie replied, "Miss Zhao, it's a pleasure to meet you. I just checked in."
Zhao Qingcheng smiled and said, "How about this, handsome guy? Can you do me a favor? I'll give you a reward after the task is done!"
Mo Wenjie smiled and asked, "What kind of help do you need?"
Zhao Qingcheng smiled and said, "Pretend to be my boyfriend. After the task is completed, I will pay you money and guarantee that it will satisfy you!"
Mo Wenjie shook his head. "I'm not short of money, you should find someone who needs help. " Then he got into the elevator.
Zhao Qingcheng rushed in with him. It was already ten thirty-five. The person my parents had arranged for me to meet was in the hotel's private room. I can't find a better one in such a short time.
Mo Wenjie looked at Zhao Qingcheng in surprise. How am I suitable? Am I a face of a pretend boyfriend or am I more like a white boy?
Zhao Qingcheng was amused by Mo Wenjie's words. "Handsome guy, you're quite humorous. What's your name? Where are you from, and what do you do for a living?"
Mo Wenjie smiled and answered, "Xincheng native, Mo Wenjie, security!"
Zhao Qingcheng smiled and said, "Mo Wenjie, security! Although this identity is a bit incongruous, it will have to do for now. Looking for the right horse while riding is more appropriate."
Mo Wenjie nearly lost his temper upon hearing this. What's this about looking for a horse while riding one? I'm not that bad, are you? Forget it, what does her business have to do with me? I'll rest in my room for a while and then go eat.
As Mo Wenjie walked out of the elevator, opened the door, and didn't expect Zhao Qingcheng to follow him into his room.
Mo Wenjie looked at Zhao Qingcheng entering his room and said, "What are you doing in my room? I'm a respectable gentleman, please leave my room!"
Zhao Qingcheng nearly fainted at his words. "Do you think I'm some kind of person? I just wanted you to pretend to be my boyfriend for a short time, and I'll take care of your meals and accommodation here."
Mo Wenjie muttered to himself, "All inclusive, that means you're going to sponsor me. This is too humiliating, my reputation as a hero is going down the drain. You should find someone else!"
Zhao Qingcheng was so angry that she stomp her foot. "You jerk, Mo Wenjie! I've already told you that my parents and the person they've arranged for me to meet are in the private room downstairs. Now there are only fifteen minutes left. How can I find someone else? Even if I beg you, it's just for a short time. Can't you just do it?"
Mo Wenjie asked, "Is the man your parents have arranged for you to meet ugly?"
Zhao Qingcheng replied, "He's not bad either."
Mo Wenjie looked at Zhao Qingcheng in surprise. "If he's not bad, why are you still unwilling?"
Zhao Qingcheng replied, "He is the eldest son of the top noble family in Zhongjiang, Cao Xuan from the Cao family. He's proficient in all aspects of eating, drinking, and entertaining, a typical playboy."
Mo Wenjie asked, "Don't your parents know about this?"
Zhao Qingcheng replied, "We know. But our company is facing a crisis and will go bankrupt without a hundred billion yuan. Cao Xuan has been pursuing me for a long time, but I haven't agreed. Now he has convinced his father Cao Tianshine to offer my father conditions: just stay with him, and he will inject one hundred billion into our family company. My parents are pressured by the company to force me to be with him. For my own happiness, I'd rather die than agree to him."
Mo Wenjie said, "It's a shame to die with such beauty. Never mind, brother will help you out this once."
Zhao Qingcheng, seeing that Mo Wenjie agreed, immediately pulled him downstairs, "Hurry, time is up!"
The two arrived at the VIP 999 private room in the hotel.
Mo Wenjie saw a middle-aged couple and a young man who looked quite good-looking.
Zhao Qingcheng pulled Mo Wenjie and said, "This is my boyfriend, Mo Wenjie. This is my father Zhao Guoquan, and this is my mother Tong Xiangyu."
Zhao Guoquan, Tong Xiangyu, and Cao Xuan were all stunned upon hearing this.
Cao Xuan said furiously, "Uncle Zhao, what's this all about? Are you playing a joke on me? Qingcheng already has a boyfriend. You guys want to play a setup and trick our family's one hundred billion yuan investment? You'll go to any lengths!"
Zhao Guoquan's head was spinning. "What's going on right now? Our daughter is still so irresponsible. She really hopes our family to go bankrupt. Such a daughter is truly a burden for her father."
He burst into anger and scolded, "Qingcheng, I don't care whether you and this Mo Wenjie are in a relationship or not. I now order you to make him leave immediately. I don't want your reckless behavior to ruin our Zhao family forever. If you still insist on being stubborn, I will revoke all your positions in the company. If your grandfather knows that you are so irrational, he will definitely expel you from the family. Don't leave no room for backtracking."
Zhao Qingcheng saw the attitude of her parents was so firm, and her tears couldn't help but flow. She looked at Zhao Guoquan and Tong Xiangyu, "Dad and Mom, you are all for the family's interests, but at the expense of my life happiness. I don't know if I'm even your biological daughter. No parent doesn't want their children to be happy and fulfilled. But you are willing to sacrifice my happiness for the family's gain. Since you have said it to this extent, then I wish you never had me as a daughter!"
Zhao Guoquan roared angrily, "Our family raised you so much. Do you think you can just detach yourself from the family? You must repay the family for raising you. Even if you want to detach yourself from the family, you must also compensate the family."
Zhao Qingcheng, seeing her father's ruthless attitude, no longer held any illusions about her parents. "Dad and Mom, you guys can say it. How much compensation do you want for the family's interests? From the moment I pay the compensation, our familial affection will come to an end."
Zhao Guoquan and Tong Xiangyu were both taken aback upon hearing this. "Our daughter is determined to break away from us," they thought. "We were only trying to threaten her into submission, but we never expected things to develop into this extent," they realized. "Now we're stuck," Zhao Guoquan quickly gave Tong Xiangyu a look.
Tong Xiangyu saw the look in her husband's eyes, and she felt a sharp pain in her heart. Her daughter was being pushed to the edge by her husband, and if things continued like this, they would truly lose their daughter.
She opened her mouth and said, "Qingcheng, don't be so emotional. Are there any parents who don't wish their children well? We're doing this for your own good. Although your father's words were a bit harsh, he meant well. You'll have a life of ease and comfort if you marry Cao Xuan, living a carefree life. Isn't that good? Why would you want to live a hardship? Even though your father's tone was heavy, his intentions were good. If you and this young man are really in a relationship, and he truly cares about you, he should leave you to have a good destination for yourself, silently wishing you well. That's true love!"
Zhao Guoquan also turned his attention to Mo Wenjie. "Young man, I don't care if you are Qingcheng's boyfriend or not. If you're smart, leave Qingcheng alone. I'll give you enough money for a breakup. Leave Qingcheng and find someone else. If you insist on your stubbornness, not only will you not get any money for the breakup, but you will also bring trouble to yourself. I'm doing this for your own good. You should think it over by yourself."
Cao Xuan looked at Mo Wenjie and didn't want to have anything to do with him, but given the current situation, if he didn't speak up, it wouldn't make sense. "Kid, where are you from? What do you do for a living? Do you know what 'matching the families' means?"
Mo Wenjie replied in a calm tone: "New city native, works as a security guard at Feiyang Group."
Cao Xuan laughed heartily upon hearing this. "Qingcheng, Qingcheng, I thought you'd find a son from a top noble family in the provincial capital. Who would have thought you'd end up with a security guard? Does his monthly salary even cover the cost of a bag for you? I really can't figure out if you've lost your mind."
Zhao Qingcheng heard this and was enraged. "What does your wealth have to do with it, Cao Xuan? And what about Mo Wenjie's poverty? I just like being with him, even if it means living with plain tea and simple meals. I don't care about your so-called superior lifestyle! I don't want it!"
Cao Xuan looked at Mo Wenjie with a provocative gaze, "A man hiding behind a woman, is that even a man? I really don't know what kind of courage you have to stand here."
Mo Wenjie was just posing as Qingcheng's boyfriend and didn't want to get involved in such messes. Who knew there were some idiots who had to court their own demise by angering him.
He replied indifferently: "The courage to stand here is not lacking in me. Compared to you, I am cleaner, more honest and reliable, younger and more talented, with a brighter future and a more upright character. Just because I have some STDs, just because I change my mind often, just because I rely on my parents, just because I'm running out of time, just because my heart is dark. What qualifications do you have to compare with me?"
Cao Xuan, who was angered by what Mo Wenjie said, shouted angrily: "You're making up things. You're just full of bullcrap!"
Mo Wenjie said: "Are you itchy down there recently? Are you controlling it with medication now? Last night to now, you've been involved with four women, haven't I got that right? You're nothing without your father. You've been feeling weak lately, and your dreams are restless, haunted by ghosts and monsters. You're in the early stages of kidney failure. Every day, all you want to do is get that beautiful woman into bed."
Cao Xuan blurted out, "How do you know?" He suddenly realized he had said something wrong. He quickly tried to explain, "You must have heard that scumbag babble."
Mo Wenjie smiled and said, "Firstly, I'm a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. The first step in the four diagnostic methods is observation. Secondly, I am proficient in the Book of Changes (I Ching), face reading, and Qimen Dunjia. Do I need to listen to others?"
Zhao Guoquan, Tong Xiangyu, and Zhao Qingcheng all looked at Mo Wenjie in disbelief. He was really that powerful? Aren't traditional Chinese medicine practitioners supposed to become more skilled with age? How could a young man be so capable?
Mo Wenjie continued, "To prove that what I say is true, Aunt Tong, you have been feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath for the past few days. You wake up at one in the morning and can't fall asleep until three. You've been taking medication for eleven days, but your symptoms haven't improved at all. In the morning, your mouth feels dry and bitter, and eating spicy foods causes you to have a sore throat. Am I right?"
