Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Wow, what a twist
Mo Jun, however, wore a serious expression, “This isn’t nonsense, it’s the truth. You simply can’t marry me because I don’t at all meet the marriage criteria of your Hao Family.”
Hao Yansen was taken aback, his thin lips nearly compressed into a straight line.
The atmosphere, which had been joyful just moments before, suddenly became unsettling and suffocating.
Hao Yansen’s aura grew increasingly grim, as if he wanted to turn everything into a living hell.
“Who approached you?” he stared at Mo Jun and asked coldly.
At this point, he was certain that someone had approached Mo Jun.
Her presence had eventually been noticed, hadn’t it…
“Grandpa.” Mo Jun answered with a laugh.
Hao Yansen’s eyes flickered, so it was indeed him.
He couldn’t help but clench his fists slightly; the thing he feared most was happening.
Grandpa knew of Mo Jun’s existence and would strongly oppose their relationship for the sake of family interests.
If he disobeyed, grandpa would probably take it out on Mo Jun.
No one understood grandpa better than he did; in his mind, family interests surpassed everything!
He had originally planned to leave the Hao Family and marry Mo Jun after grandpa’s hundredth year.
But now, everything had become complicated…
Hao Yansen frowned deeply, “What else did he say to you?”
Mo Jun knew he had misunderstood and said with a smile, “He also said that it’s almost impossible for me to marry you, so I can’t marry you right now.”
“What else did he say?” Hao Yansen’s tone turned even colder.
“He also said that since I currently don’t meet the criteria, I should work hard to improve my abilities and comply with them, right!”
What, what?! Hao Yansen was astonished!
Bai Lang and Shang Shi were shocked as well; what was she talking about?
With a sly smile, Mo Jun said, “Surprising, isn’t it? That’s right, grandpa doesn’t oppose us. He even brought me here to give me the opportunity to work hard and become your wife. So, from now on, I’m going to work hard to improve myself, earn money, and then marry you!”
Hao Yansen: “…”
Bai Lang and Shang Shi were utterly astounded.
Wow, such a twist, such an unexpected ending!
They all assumed that old Master Hao would kill the joy by ruthlessly separating them.
Hao Yansen found it hard to believe, “What did you say?”
“I said…” As Mo Jun was about to repeat herself, Hao Yansen’s phone suddenly rang!
He frowned in displeasure. Who could it be, disturbing him at this time?
He pulled out his phone intending to hang up, but then saw it was a call from the butler, Ji Lian.
Hao Yansen hesitated briefly, then answered with confusion, “Hello?”
Instantly, Ji Lian’s anxious voice came through from the other end, “Young Master, it’s not looking good, the old master has suddenly fainted from cerebral congestion, his condition is very critical, you need to come back quickly!”
Hao Yansen abruptly stood up, knocking his chair to the ground, “What did you say?”
“Young Master, I fear the old master might not make it…” Ji Lian’s voice choked up.
If the situation weren’t incredibly dire, Ji Lian wouldn’t sound like this.
Hao Yansen’s face changed, his voice taut, “I’ll be right there!”
After hanging up the phone, he glanced at Mo Jun, hesitated, and said, “I have an emergency, you stay here and wait for me. Bai Lang, come with me!”
Bai Lang’s expression suddenly turned grave. Who was in trouble?
Could it be old Master Hao?
Bai Lang and Shang Shi stood up at the same time, ready to follow Hao Yansen out.
“Wait…” Mo Jun hurriedly followed and grabbed him, asking anxiously, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Otherwise, why would his reaction be so severe.
