Chapter 455: Argument
Translator: Lonelytree
“I am not negotiating, I am telling you the truth. No one knows my body better than I do.”
“You are not going anywhere!” Quan Yu’s voice sounded mechanical as it came out of Nie Li’s phone. Even though Mo Li could not see him, she could see the cold gaze in his eyes. His dark eyes would be filled with incomprehension. Mo Li was surprised that Nie Li was in the middle of a video call with Quan Yu. Nie Li turned the screen around and Quan Yu’s dark face appeared.
“That’s why I said there’d be no negotiation.” Nie Li smiled. However, Mo Li saw a fox when she looked at the woman.
Due to the matters in Beijing, Quan Yu could not stay to accompany Mo Li. So he told Nie Li to make sure that Mo Li had a good rest. When he heard on the phone that Mo Li wanted to return to the set, he was so angry that his lungs felt like they were burning.
“My arm has been relocated and the stitches on the shoulders are done. I only need some time and I will heal. I will make sure I use my shoulders as little as possible. It doesn’t affect my work.”
Quan Yu on the other end of the line took several deep breaths as if to calm down. “Are you sure you didn’t ruin your brain in the process? Do you need me to call people to crack open your brain to see if there’s anything wrong in there?! Plus have you forgotten the contract you’ve signed with Huan Yu. You have to follow all the work arrangements assigned to you. Since Nie Li told you to rest at the hospital, then that is exactly what you’ll do! You are not going anywhere unless the stitches on your shoulder blade are removed.”
Quan Yu always had a bad temper. Now that he heard Mo Li was going to put herself in danger again, his temper flashed up. His tone was icy cold.
Mo Li was annoyed and then she was reminded of the man’s engagement to Miss Lu. That made her even more annoyed at him. Mo Li demanded in an even tone, “Who are you to order me around?”
Quan Yu’s face darkened immediately. His tone was hard as ice. “Why are you being so unreasonable? We just want you to rest, that is not even bad for you!”
“I am not being unreasonable.” For some reason, Mo Li found her heart racing as she continued to press her point. It was because she saw how fluttered Quan Yu was due to her.
Quan Yu tried to make his tone as calm as possible. “If you are not being unreasonable, then stay at the hospital and make sure your injuries are healed.”
“But I don’t want to delay the progress of the shoot.” Mo Li said. Her eyes shot coldly back at Quan Yu on the phone monitor. “I can’t make Nie Li lose money because of me!”
“Hey, don’t bring me into this.” If not for the fact that they were communicating through her phone, Nie Li really wanted to remove herself from this couple’s quarrel.
Quan Yu was rendered speechless by Mo Li. This wretched girl is so sharp-tongued! Is she trying to piss me off?!
“By the way, why did you come back to Pearl River?” Mo Li looked at him and asked seriously, “Was it to see me or to see your fiance?”
Quan Yu was trembling hard from anger. He had to manipulate a lot of resources to fly back to Pearl River but his action was now being questioned by this girl. Or is she deliberately trying to make me angry? Because as I remember, I don’t have a fiance.
Quan Yu then broke out in a laugh. “Yes, I admit, I came back just to see you. Also, do you know that I can sue you for slander for saying that I have a fiance? Because that is not true at all.”
Mo Li nodded and felt a huge weight lift off her heart. Even though she knew this was fake news from the original plot, hearing it from Quan Yu was still a big relief.
“Well, you have seen me, I will not take up any more of Young Master Quan’s time. Thank you Young Master Quan for coming to see me, I am so happy.”
Nie Li glanced at Mo Li, she did not expect that Mo Li would be jealous.
“Mo Li, you’re acting so weird because of those rumors that I have a fiance? Don’t forget it was you who told me to meet Xiao Yue.” Quan Yu suddenly pushed. Why can’t the girl just speak what’s on her mind? She clearly has me in her heart but she keeps pretending that is not the case. Mo Li had no idea Quan Yu had turned down most of his work just to fly back to Pearl River to see her. Quan Yu had done so many things for her without her knowing.
“No, I don’t care about those rumors at all. Plus, I did thank you for helping me with Xiao Yue.” Mo Li did not realize that her tone had lightened.
Staring at the girl, Quan Yu did not know what to say. Both of them fell silent. In the end, it was Nie Li who stepped in. “Alright, you two need to stop fighting. Even I can smell the jealousy in the air.”
Quan Yu coughed and remained silent. Mo Li was honestly quite happy after she knew what Quan Yu had done for her but for some reason, she did not know how to express that feeling.. So she lay there and looked at the man emotionlessly.
