Just as Mo Shaoyuan was about to go to bed, he saw Uncle Guan run towards him hurriedly and he reported, “Old Master, something bad had happened. Young Master has captured Young Madam back.”
Upon hearing that Gu Li was here, Old Master Fu was so excited that he directly ignored the word ‘captured’. He couldn’t stop smiling as he said, “Oh, is that brat finally enlightened? He finally knows that he should bring Little Pear1 back here? Quick, Old Guan, bring me my jacket.”
Seeing that Old Master Guan was so happy, Uncle Guan couldn’t bear to burst his bubble. “Young Master locked Young Madam up in the ancestral hall. Apparently, Young Madam has violated the family rules and he wants to punish her.”
“What?!”
…
Upon learning that Gu Li was locked up in the ancestral hall, Old Master Fu couldn’t sit still for a moment and immediately rushed over.
When the two rows of bodyguards guarding the door saw him, they respectfully greeted him but they didn’t allow him to enter. “We’re sorry, Old Master. Young Master has ordered that no one is to enter the ancestral hall.”
They were all Mo Shiting’s trusted subordinates and they only obeyed his orders.
He didn’t expect that as the head of the family, he wouldn’t even be able to enter the ancestral hall. Old Master Mo hit his walking stick hard on the ground and reprimanded sternly, “How dare you!”
The bodyguards bowed their heads in unison. “Old Master, please calm down!”
Old Master Mo was even angrier. “Well then I want to see who would dare to stop me!”
With that, he picked up his walking stick and rushed over aggressively.
The bodyguards looked at each other, but no one dared to stop him.
After all, he was Mo Shiting’s biological grandfather. If anything happens to him, they wouldn’t be able to compensate for it even with their lives.
Besides, the door was locked from the inside, so it couldn’t be opened from the outside.
As expected, after trying a few times to no avail, Mo Shaoyuan cursed out loud angrily, “Mo Shiting, you bastard! What did you do to Little Pear?!”
No one replied.
The ancestral hall was so big that his voice couldn’t reach Mo Shiting’s ears at all.
Of course, Old Master Mo knew this, but he still refused to give up. “Mo Shiting, come out! Little Pear is such an obedient child. How could she have broken the family rules?! Tell me, which one did she break?! Huh?!
“Fine, keep up with your act then! Be careful not to lose your wife and end up staying single for the rest of your life!
“Mo Shiting—”
Despite him doing that for a long time, he didn’t even manage to scold Mo Shiting.
Old Master Mo held his chest and panted as he said to Uncle Guan, “Let’s go back.”
Uncle Guan hurriedly supported him as they walked away.
The bodyguards obediently made way for them.
At the same time, in the ancestral hall…
In front of the spirit tablets of the Mo family’s ancestors, Mo Shiting and Gu Li stared at each other, and the atmosphere was tense.
“Kneel down!”
The man’s deep voice was full of anger.
Gu Li raised her head, looking indignant. “No! I’m not a member of the Mo family. Why should I obey your family rules?”
“You’re not a member of the Mo family?”
Mo Shiting laughed out of anger, “Say that again!”
“I…”
Gu Li was tongue-tied.
Actually, she did indeed hold the position of Young Madam Mo, so she was a member of the Mo family in name.
But although his family has so many rules, no one told me about them. How would I know?
Besides, he’s making me kneel so quickly. Do I still have any human rights?
Gu Li bit her lip, feeling a little aggrieved. She couldn’t help but retort, “Then tell me. What’s the 101st Mo family rule?”
Mo Shiting said emotionlessly, “One is not allowed to work in the entertainment industry. What did you do today?”
“I didn’t…”
Gu Li was just about to explain when he interrupted her forcefully. “You don’t need to make excuses for yourself.”
“I’m not making excuses, I’m—”

“If you don’t kneel, then we’ll get a divorce!”
Divorce?
No way!
Now that her lifeline had been grabbed, Gu Li couldn’t care less about whether she was innocent or not anymore. She knelt on the futon without saying anything.
However, although she did as he said, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She couldn’t hold back her tears for a moment, and they then trickled down her face.
