Before Mo Rao could answer, Mo Yuan and the other two had already left.

Only Mo Rao and Shen Feng were left in the living room. Even the servants had gone out to clean up.

What kind of cleaning could be done outside at night?

“Do you want some water?” Shen Feng brought a glass of water and placed it in front of Mo Rao.

Mo Rao picked up her cup and drank the water in small sips. It wasn’t that she had never been alone with Shen Feng, but this was the first time she was a guest in the Shen family and alone with him.

Shen Feng knew that Mo Rao was shy. His mother must have said something just now that made her feel embarrassed, so he explained, “Rao Rao, my mother speaks straightforwardly when she’s happy. I’m already so old but still haven’t gotten married yet, so she’s anxious. Don’t mind her.”

“I know, Brother Shen Feng.” Mo Rao nodded and felt a little guilty. “Actually, I’ve let you down. I used you to distance myself from Fu Ying and even asked you to hide it from your family. You must be under a lot of psychological pressure.”

“I’m fine. If you’re willing to use me, it means that I still have a chance. I hope that we can become a real couple one day.” Shen Feng smiled gently, but there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

Sometimes, he really envied Fu Ying for having Mo Rao for so long.

He, on the other hand, couldn’t even win Mo Rao’s heart.

“By the way, I’ve recently collected a few paintings. Do you want to take a look?” Shen Feng changed the topic. He didn’t want Mo Rao to give him more blows.

“Okay!” Mo Rao was immediately interested. She liked to draw to begin with, so she naturally liked to admire artwork.

When Shen Feng saw her sparkling eyes, he knew that he had done the right thing. He didn’t waste the money he had spent to buy those paintings.

He stood up and said, “Let’s go to the collection room.”

Mo Rao stood up and followed.

In Shen Feng’s collection room, there were many items that weren’t for sale. There were various antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, as well as some precious figurines. There were special glass cabinets displaying them. Mo Rao marveled in awe.

The paintings he had recently bought were hanging on one wall. Mo Rao immediately ran over, her eyes shining as she exclaimed, “They’re so beautiful!”

As Shen Feng accompanied her to look at the paintings and listened to her praise the artist, his heart softened.

How good would it be if he could continue staying with her like this?

The wonderful time passed quickly. There was the sound of the door opening outside. Mo Yuan and the others must have returned.

“Shen Feng, let’s go out now,” Mo Rao said.

“Okay.” Shen Feng was a little reluctant, but he didn’t refuse.

The two of them left the collection room and returned to the living room. They thought that Mo Yuan and the other two had returned, but they saw an uninvited guest.

Fu Ying sat on the sofa with his long legs crossed. His aura was noble and cold. Seeing Mo Rao and Shen Feng come out, he relaxed.

Originally, he didn’t know that Mo Rao had come to the Shen family’s home. Mo Wan called Mo Yun to chat, but he heard Mo Yuan’s voice and guessed that Mo Rao might also be in the Shen family’s home.

Fu Ying drove over without thinking. There were servants outside the Shen family and the door wasn’t locked, so he came in directly.

After initially entering, he didn’t find Mo Rao and Shen Feng. He felt glad that Mo Rao didn’t come. In the end, he saw her and Shen Feng coming down from the second floor while chatting and laughing. The two of them looked really compatible.

“Why are you here?” Shen Feng’s expression turned cold the moment he saw Fu Ying.

“We’re relatives. Isn’t it normal for me to come to your house for a visit?” Fu Ying looked calm and even pretended to be surprised. “Mo Rao is here too?”

Mo Rao was a little stunned. Why did Fu Ying suddenly appear? He acted like he didn’t know that she was in the Shen family’s home.

She didn’t know if he was pretending or really didn’t know.

“Do we still need to interact with each other with our current strained relationship?” Shen Feng completely treated Fu Ying as his love rival.

“Then you have to ask your mother and aunt if they agree,” Fu Ying replied calmly.

No matter how bad things between the two brothers got, Mo Wan and Mo Yun wouldn’t agree to sever ties.

Shen Feng snorted coldly and didn’t want to say anything else to Fu Ying.

“Don’t worry. Mo Rao and I have already agreed that we will be siblings in the future. You don’t have to be so hostile to me.” Fu Ying was unusually calm. He seemed to have really let it go.

“Do you think I’ll believe you?” Shen Feng frowned. He knew best how persistent Fu Ying was towards Mo Rao.

“It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not. As long as she believes me, I’ll do it.” Fu Ying’s gaze landed on Mo Rao. He was waiting for her to express her stance.
