Chapter 200 - 200 The aloof and domineering

Mo Shiting was not surprised to hear her make such a bold proposition, but he firmly refused, “No way!”
“Why?”
Gu Li opened her eyes wide, unable to take in his refusal.
Mo Shiting refused categorically, “You’re still a kid, stop meddling in grown-up affairs.”
A kid?
So in his eyes, she still isn’t grown up?
Gu Li was speechless and slightly unconvinced, “I have grown up.”
“Really?”
Mo Shiting cracked a shallow smile, his mischievous gaze falling on her chest.
Not small indeed, she’s a D…
Feeling his ill-intentioned gaze, Gu Li was frustrated and hit the table, “I’m serious, you should stop being unseemly and thinking about inappropriate things.”
Mo Shiting shifted his gaze back, grinning ambiguously at her, “I can’t behave properly when I’m around you.”
“You-”
Gu Li simply grabbed a file and smacked him twice with it, while ranting, “Your persona of an aloof CEO has collapsed, Young Master Mo.”
Mo Shiting responded earnestly, “What aloof CEO? I’m just a normal man, don’t imagine me as some sort of a monster.”
Gu Li:
A monster?
How does he know his own image so clearly?
Changing the subject, Gu Li continued: “If you won’t let me go, do you have any ideas yourself? I mean, it wouldn’t hurt just to share, right?”
Mo Shiting had no choice but to reveal, “I will go to Country E myself.”
Upon hearing Mo Shiting’s intention to travel to Country E, Gu Li immediately objected: “No, you can’t go, that’s too dangerous.”
With the Black Blood League having strength in Country E and the royal family of Country E keeping an eagle eye on him, Gu Li wouldn’t let him take such a risk at this critical junction for anything.
Mo Shiting rose and walked around the table to her side, massaging the back of her head, “Although the evidence has been destroyed, we’ve found out that the instigator of this incident is Second Prince Dori.”
“Dori? It’s him? He’s Frank’s full-blooded brother and he actually…”
Gu Li was shocked beyond measure.
But on thinking it over, she thought it made sense. After all, Dori has always been power-hungry, and his most favored younger brother was the main obstacle in his rise to the throne.
She didn’t know if Frank knew about it, but if he did, he would probably be devastated, right?
Regardless of Frank’s reaction, the fact that Dori, the “thief” who cries thief while twisting the blame to the Mo family, demanding for them to give an explanation, was truly despicable.
The angrier Gu Li thought about it, the tighter her tiny fists clenched and pounded lightly on the table.
Mo Shiting noticed her small action in the corner of his eye, a hint of amusement flickering in his gaze.
He leaned over her, bracing his arms against the table and enclosing her small fist in his wide and sturdy palm, speaking in a deep voice, “Previously, we were somewhat passive as we couldn’t find the culprit. Now that we know it’s Dori who’s behind it, don’t worry, I have a way to deal with him.”
“Really?”
Gu Li spun around recklessly and her lips accidentally brushed past his face.
Oops!
She didn’t do it on purpose.
Gu Li’s face flushed red and she quickly turned her head back, her swift reaction bringing a grin to Mo Shiting’s face.
“Madam’s kissing technique needs improvement, aim better next time.”
Gu Li: “Hmph, in your dreams.”
Feeling the conversation derailed again, she quickly corrected the course:
“What’s your plan to deal with him? Let’s hear it.”
Mo Shiting released her and returned to his boss chair.
After about a ten-second silence, he finally admitted, “I have some dirt on him.”
“What dirt?”
“Stop probing. It’s late, go to sleep.”
Mo Shiting didn’t want her involved too much, so he simply shooed her away..
