Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing that Old Madam Qu was bent on protecting Mo Rao, Qu Xue knew that there was no need for her to continue.
However, she didn’t understand why Old Madam Qu was so good to Mo Rao.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded. “Grandma, I’m back!”
Qu Rou appeared in the living room. She was wearing a short uniform dress and looked very vivacious, like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
“Rou Rou, you’re back!” Seeing Qu Rou, a hint of joy appeared in Old Madam Qu’s eyes.
“That’s right, Grandma. Didn’t I tell you? I’m back in the country to develop my career!” After Qu Rou came in front of Old Madam Qu, her gaze landed on Mo Rao. At first glance, Qu Rou took a dislike to Mo Rao.
This was because she felt that Mo Rao was too beautiful and had instantly outshone her. Moreover, she had been paying attention to the domestic entertainment industry recently, so she naturally knew about Mo Rao.
To be able to make men like Fu Ying and Shen Feng fight over her, she must be capable.
“I’m sorry, but I want to sit with my grandmother. Can you please move aside?” Qu Rou looked at Mo Rao coldly.
“Okay.” Mo Rao stood up and gave her seat to Qu Rou. Her identity was actually the same as Qu Rou’s, but she couldn’t say it out loud.
Old Madam Qu felt that Qu Rou was a little rude, but she was her biological granddaughter after all. She could still tell who was more important.
Qu Rou wasn’t Qu Ru. She was naturally different from an illegitimate daughter like Qu Ru.
Qu Rou held Old Madam Qu’s arm and chatted intimately. Mo Rao was ignored.
Seeing this scene, Qu Xue was very satisfied. As expected, her biological daughter was more impressive. She could make the old lady happy in an instant.
“Mo Rao, I seem to be feeling unwell too. Can you help me take a look?” Qu You saw Mo Rao standing at the side and looking a little out of place, so she took the initiative to ease her awkward situation.
“Sure.” Mo Rao knew that Qu You was helping her. She was very grateful.
“Then let’s go to the room. There are too many people in the living room.” Qu You stood up and walked to the second floor.
Mo Rao immediately followed. However, the moment they reached the room, Qu You took out some clothes and threw them on the bed. Then, she said to Mo Rao, “Hurry up and choose something you like to change into. I’m bringing you to a gathering.”
“What gathering?” Mo Rao was very stunned.
“It’s just a gathering with some friends. I know a few big directors. If you go, you might get a role in a big production!” Qu You said.
It was as if she had already become best friends with Mo Rao and was thinking for her sake.
Mo Rao felt a little baffled. Although she didn’t dislike Qu You and was even grateful towards her, the two of them didn’t interact much and couldn’t be considered very good friends, let alone attend a gathering together.
“Choose quickly!” Qu You urged.
“Alright.” Mo Rao was a little helpless. She searched through these clothes and saw a white sleeveless cheongsam with snow-white and elegant pear flowers embroidered on it.
“I’ll wear this!” Mo Rao picked up the cheongsam.
“Alright, go change quickly. We’ll set off immediately!” Qu You was a little excited.
Mo Rao didn’t think too much about it and went to change her clothes. When she came out after changing, Qu You had already put on makeup and was putting on lipstick. She asked, “Don’t you want to put on makeup before going?”
Mo Rao’s skin was very fair, her eyebrows were thick, and her facial features were extremely gorgeous. Even without makeup, she was already more than beautiful.
“I’d better not put on makeup. Let’s go.” Mo Rao didn’t want to put on makeup.
Qu You didn’t force her. After she brought Mo Rao downstairs, they saw that Old Madam Qu was still chatting with Qu Rou in the living room. Qu You said, “Grandma, Mo Rao and I will leave now since today’s treatment has ended. She’ll come again next time!”
“Alright, treat Mo Rao to a meal!” When Old Madam Qu saw that Mo Rao was about to leave, she actually couldn’t bear to part with her. She quickly instructed her eldest granddaughter to treat Mo Rao well.
Qu You made an OK gesture. She definitely wouldn’t mistreat Mo Rao.
Soon, Qu You’s car stopped in front of a clubhouse. The golden clubhouse exuded lavishness.
“Follow me. Don’t get lost!” After entering the club, Qu You held Mo Rao’s hand. “I’ll hold your hand. If I lose you, I won’t be able to explain myself to my grandmother and the Fu family!”
