Chu Yi really could not figure it out.
Although, as a father, he felt jealous seeing his daughter fall in love with another boy.
But he had no choice. Mo Yang was so outstanding. And he had watched the child grow up for so many years.
He himself had been friends with Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao for many years. They knew each other thoroughly, and he understood their characters. His daughter would not suffer if she joined a family like that. He had inwardly acknowledged Mo Yang as his son-in-law.
A daughter has to get married sometime. Of course he hoped that his daughter would marry an outstanding man who would treat her well!
Since childhood, Mo Yang had always been very considerate. He had been a constant in Chu Yue’s life for so many years. When he grew up, he had become busy with his career. Although many women pursued him, he had had no flings.
Chu Yi felt that this was a pretty good man.
But his daughter seemed to be the one presenting difficulties instead?
Lin Yin looked at her daughter for a long time before she suddenly understood.
She smiled and said, “Yue Yue, do you think that… Mo Yang doesn’t like you anymore after being away for so long?”
Chu Yue glanced at her mother. She did not know how to describe her feelings.
Lin Yin laughed and said, “You! It’s normal for girls to be unsure of their feelings during their first romance.
“Treasure the confusion! You will only feel like that when you’re young. Once you grow up, marriage will complicate many things. The way you feel now will only be a beautiful memory in the future.”
Chu Yue was stunned. “This will be a beautiful memory?”
Lin Yin laughed and said, “Of course. Your youth represents the best days of your life, just that you don’t realize it now. Remember the time you spent with Mo Yang when you were little? Or if you think back on the time before he went overseas, aren’t your memories very sweet?”
Chu Yue immediately blushed.
She had only been in her teens and was just awakening to romance. Mo Yang was so handsome, came from such a good family, had such good grades and was so good-looking. But he was always very gentle towards her. Any girl would like a senior like that.
At that time, many classmates were terribly envious of her. The girls in the capital were so jealous of her because of Mo Yang!
Chu Yue felt terribly stifled. She asked her mother, “Mother, why… why do you think Brother Mo Yang likes me?”
Lin Yin paused. “You think he doesn’t like you?”
Chu Yue bowed her head and muttered, “He has never said that he likes me…”
Lin Yin: “…”
Chu Yi: “…”
After all that, it turned out that the child was feeling conflicted over this?
Lin Yue looked at her daughter. “Yue Yue, are you angry because he did not confess his feelings towards you?”
Chu Yue thought for a while before she expressed her doubts. “Mother, how can you be so sure that Brother Mo Yang likes me? I’m so young. I only became an adult this year! When he went overseas four years ago, I was still a child!
“He’s so outstanding; there are plenty of people who like him. During his many years overseas, I’m sure other people have pursued him.”
The more Chu Yue talked, the more forlorn she felt.
It was the regret of not being on par with the person she liked. She wished that she was more capable or a little older, not the way she was now. She did not even know what he had been doing overseas.
“Are you worried that he has had other girlfriends overseas?”
“No…”
“What is it then?”
“I…” Chu Yue paused before she said, “Brother Mo Yang is the Mo family’s heir. Uncle Mo is so capable and so is Aunt Gu. He’s the eldest son. His status is very high.
“My classmates all say that the Mo family has immeasurable wealth. Many older girls in the capital who are so pretty and who come from such good families all went overseas to pursue him. Mother, tell me, why would Brother Mo Yang like me?”
