Chapter 858: The Truth Behind the Broken Engagement (4)
Liu Tinglan heard this and a look of urgency indeed flashed across her face, but she pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Well, if he wants to meet, let him meet. Can you make decisions for him?"
Mo Yan suppressed her laughter and with a reproachful tone, said, "I didn’t expect you to be so heartless. Brother Shen is truly pitiable! In that case, I really hope that Brother Shen finds the woman of his dreams soon and lives a happy and blissful life together till old age."
Even though she knew her friend’s intention, hearing her say so made Liu Tinglan’s heart sour as if marinated in vinegar, and she said annoyedly: "Stop it, Smelly Yanyan, I won’t fall for your trick!"
Mo Yan was about to tease her friend about falling for some trick, but seeing Liu Tinglan’s nearly tearful face, she feared overstimulation and that it would be hard to coax her back, so she swallowed the words she had ready to say.
The two chatted aimlessly about other topics until sleepiness overtook them in the late night, and they fell asleep without realizing it...
Liu Tinglan rested at the Mo Family home for a full seven days, until Mr. and Mrs. Liu thought she was more or less recovered, and then sent their coachman to fetch her back home.
Having enjoyed good food, drink, and fun at the Mo Family home, Liu Tinglan really didn’t want to leave, and grabbing Mo Yan’s hand, she pleaded, "Yanyan, I haven’t had enough fun. Could you write a letter to my parents, telling them my poison hasn’t completely cleared, and let me rest at your place for another ten days or half a month?"
Mo Yan found this amusing and urged, "You’d better hurry back and deal with the Du Family’s affairs. There’s no need for me to write a letter, your father and mother will be eager to send you over to ’clear your mind’ soon enough!"
She deliberately emphasized the words "clear your mind."
Liu Tinglan was a smart girl and understood instantly. She immediately put on a sad expression: "Like this?"
Mo Yan held back her laughter and praised her friend’s excellent performance with a thumbs up: "Not bad!"
