Trial Marriage Husband: Need to Work Hard

Chapter 286: Isnʼt That Too Cruel？

Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi

After they finished talking about their collaboration, Coque wanted to invite the couple to dinner, but Mo Ting politely turned him down.

The couple left the manor and bid farewell to Coque. Mo Ting then drove Tangning back to the hotel. On the way, Mo Ting couldnʼt help but ask, ”How did you feel about your interaction with the kid?”

”It was a little overwhelming...” Tangning thought about it carefully, ”Kathy is much too naughty.”

”OK, Iʼll take note of that,” Mo Ting suddenly replied.

”Huh?”

”In future, our child canʼt be too naughty,” Mo Ting replied in a serious manner.

Tangning let out a gentle laugh and looked at Mo Ting, ”Do you think you have a choice how your child turns out?”

”I can teach it...”

Hearing this, Tangning started imagining Mo Ting as a father; sitting on the sofa as a little munchkin knelt before him admitting to its mistake. Just the thought of it was much too beautiful.

”Do you really want one?”

This time, Mo Ting looked at Tangning seriously and shook his head, ”Letʼs wait a few years. All I want to do now is to love you.”

Tangning wanted to lean over into Mo Tingʼs driverʼs seat and print a kiss on his cheek, but Mo Ting reminded, ”Itʼs dangerous, sit back in your place.”

”Dangerous? Or is someone tailing us?” Tangning asked, ”Did you think, with my level of sensitivity, I wouldnʼt be able to notice the black car thatʼs been following us? The camera is so reflective, itʼs almost blinded me a few times. I bet they captured a few photos of Kathy and I at the manor, didnʼt they? What is this all about?”

”The people from Hua Rong Studio are following us...” Mo Ting explained.

As expected, he couldnʼt underestimate his woman! She was much too observant.

”What do they want?”

”According to the comments they left online, it seems they are claiming you have multiple men. At the moment, they are trying to capture more evidence.”

”So, youʼre playing along?” Tangning guessed, ”But...”

”I canʼt keep waiting,” Mo Ting interrupted Tangningʼs sentence before swerving the car into a dead end and explaining, ”I want to take this opportunity to announce our relationship...I want to tell everyone, you are Mo Tingʼs wife; the woman I treasure the most. But, if I was to directly announce it, the people from Hua Rong would continue to gather evidence, make claims and try to defame you.”

”Rather than letting that happen, I might as well wait for them to make a move first. After they reveal their ultimate plan, I can completely get rid of them and then announce our relationship.”

”So, you deliberately lured the people at Hua Rong, didnʼt you? Also, back at the airport, when you suggested to walk through the normal route, you wanted people to know of our whereabouts,” Tangning finally understood what Mo Ting had done.

Hua Rongʼs people had endured for so long, there was no way theyʼd stop at simply posting a photo. ʼAmbitionʼ was written all over Editor Linʼs face.

Editor Lin wasnʼt hard to deal with. But, what Mo Ting wanted was an opportunity for him and Tangning.

”Will you blame me?”

”Blame you for what?” Tangningʼs eyes suddenly turned red, ”Blame you for being so calculative? Or blame you for calculating everything to protect me and to make otherʼs acknowledge me?”

”Just like how I appeared in front of you when I went against Han Yufan and Mo Yurou, I want to see the true Mo Ting.”

”I love you. So, I am willing to stand on your side.”

”We still have a lifetime together...”

Mo Ting reached out his hands and pulled Tangning into his embrace; he couldnʼt help but sigh, ”God has really been good to me because he brought you to me. Trust me, I will only give you the best.”

Tangning had always trusted him and she intended to continue trusting him. So, she replied to him firmly, ”Announce it! Letʼs use Hua Rong Studio to our advantage. After all, their intention was to uncover a big scandal to destroy me.”

...

”Who would have thought Tangning is so capable. She even managed to play with the daughter of a big director like Coque.” After a long day of stalking, Hua Rongʼs people returned to the hotel they were staying in.

Editor Lin looked at the photos that were captured and said to his subordinates, ”Thatʼs no big directorʼs daughter. We will report it as Tangningʼs illegitimate child!”

”But...Mo Ting was also there. It was obvious they were there for business...”

Editor Lin looked at his stupid subordinate and then waved him off, ”Report that Tangning has an illegitimate daughter in France and then release the photo of her playing with the child. Afterwards, post up a photo comparison of the two. Do you think the public would care about the truth?”

”Isnʼt that too cruel?”

”Hai Rui has already forced us into a dead end. If we donʼt get a grasp on the time and fight back, donʼt even dream of ever stepping foot on Beijing soil again,” Editor Lin said straightforwardly. ”Hurry and write up an article for me. Tomorrow, I want our two teams to be on standby. As long as Tangning is abroad, I donʼt think she can withstand the loneliness.”

”But Editor, donʼt forget, Mo Ting is by her side. Thereʼs no way she can get up to any mischief.”

”Thatʼs not for certain! Did you think a flirtatious woman like that can control her instincts?”

”But, Mo Ting is already the best there is, isnʼt she satisfied? How thirsty for men must she be?”

”Stop talking rubbish. Tomorrow, remember to be on standby,” Editor Lin ordered. With Mo Ting around, their possibility of capturing solid proof was scarce, but it didnʼt mean they couldnʼt try their luck.

In actual fact, they had no idea Mo Ting had been here all along and the three men they spoke of...was all Mo Ting.

Of course, this was all a part of President Moʼs plan; it was better than letting Hua Rong capture random photos and then come back again to get something better. At least now, they were well prepared. All they had to do was wait for Hua Rong to fall into their trap.

...

It was nighttime in Beijing. A bone-chilling wind swept through the city. After dinner, Fang Yu stared at Huo Jingjing. His eyes were questioning her: didnʼt she say she would leave at night?

”I donʼt think the reporters will notice you at this time. Put on a little bit of a disguise, Iʼll take you home.”

Huo Jingjing immediately responded, ”I donʼt have any clothes to wear. Did you forget? I arrived in lingerie.”

”I got your assistant to bring some clothes. Just a moment ago, I already went down to retrieve them.”

”When was this?” Huo Jingjing asked awkwardly.

”While you and Yue Er were having an afternoon nap, I went and got them...Hurry and get changed.”

”Must you send me away?” Huo Jingjing didnʼt actually want to return to her apartment. It was cold, lonely and made her imagination run wild. ”I can stay in the guest room. If not, I donʼt mind sleeping on the sofa. When youʼre not around I can keep Yue Er company. Plus, if I need to look for you, I donʼt need to make a phone call.”

In order not to make Fang Yu misunderstand her intentions, she quickly explained, ”There are too many unhappy memories at the apartment. Plus, Zhen Manni had previously sent someone straight to my front door, so privacy isnʼt great. How about I sell it and move next door to you.”

”I have no friends and family and have nothing to tie me down...Thereʼs no difference where I go.”

”Hurry, letʼs go. Letʼs go and get your things.” Actually, this was what Fang Yu meant from the start.
