"Alright …" Aunt Mo turned her back on him and with a sullen expression, walked back to the kitchen.

Gu Xueling continued to act as a silent background. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't get between them.

She pinched the chopsticks in her hand, causing a red line to appear between her tender fingers. Gu Xueling's gaze, filled with jealousy, swept over Qin Yuxuan's face when no one was looking.

Mo Congsheng and Aunt Mo didn't have a good meal either. They originally wanted to let Qin Yuxuan know the difficulties and retreated. Who knew that the old man would suddenly rush over to kill them?

Under Old Master Mo's protection, Qin Yuxuan successfully finished the dinner.

This situation was completely different from what she had expected. Although Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo still didn't like her, it wasn't as obvious as when they entered the sect.

Old Master Mo did not hide his affection for Qin Yuxuan at all. At the table, it was basically the three of them chatting and laughing.

Gu Xueling wanted to interrupt the other three, but Old Master Mo didn't give her the chance.

Mo Congsheng and Aunt Mo knew that the old man had come to support Qin Yuxuan. No matter what they said, it would be asking for trouble, so they just ate in silence.

After dinner, it was still early. Old Master Mo suggested, "Why don't you two go out for a walk. It's still early outside. It's perfect for us to walk around for some fruits."

Mo Yuechen and the old man looked at each other. They instantly understood that the old man wanted to borrow some excuse to spend their money. He probably had something to talk to Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo.

So he took it upon himself, "Well, don't you like East Slope's pastries? I'll buy some for you. "

Old Master Mo waved his hand and said with a smile, "Buy less. Go."

After Qin Yuxuan and Mo Yuechen went out together, Gu Xueling could no longer sit still.

"Uncle, Aunt, Grandpa Mo, I will go back first."

Aunt Mo was embarrassed. She was the one who invited him over, but in the end, it turned out this way.

She took Gu Xueling's hand and said apologetically, "Auntie, you didn't manage to entertain me today."

"No, Xueling had a good dinner tonight." Gu Xueling forced a smile, which made Aunt Mo's heart ache even more.

In comparison, Qin Yuxuan, who had left without a care after eating, made her even more dissatisfied. Aunt Mo turned around and said to the father and son, "I'll send this Xueling out."

When the two of them reached the door, Gu Xueling could no longer maintain the smile on her face. Aunt Mo said, "I've let you suffer a lot tonight."

Tears welled up in Gu Xueling's eyes. "Aunt …"

"Don't worry!" Aunt Mo assured her, "We will only acknowledge you, Mo Family's daughter-in-law!"

After they left the Mo Family, Qin Yuxuan obviously heaved a sigh of relief. Although Old Master Mo was there, he was able to help her avoid making things difficult for others.

However, this scene still made her feel very uncomfortable. It was obvious that they didn't like her, yet she still had to eagerly move closer to them.

The two walked side by side. The street lamps had already lit up on both sides of the road. The afterglow of the setting sun was still there, and layers of red clouds covered the horizon, creating a magnificent scene.

Qin Yuxuan's delicate face was a little depressed. She sighed. "This job is not easy."

Mo Yuechen knew that he had dragged her into an awkward situation. His slender fingers were curled up as he put his fist to his lips and coughed. "I didn't know she would come today …"

"Young Master Mo." She poked the man next to her, revealing a pained expression. "What should I do in the future …"
