Chapter 1762: Isn’t This Oath a Little Too Vicious?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mao Nana was just unsure if she was really as important as she thought in Qu Xiujie’s heart. She was also unsure if she could really walk into his heart and if she could really do what she swore to herself before coming to the capital.

However, the things that Mao Nana did not know were more than these.

“Did my uncle treat you badly?”

Pei Ge asked with a smile. She had clearly seen Qu Xiujie’s gentle gaze on Mao Nana but the latter did not seem to notice it based on her current emotions.

“It’s fine as long as he doesn’t chase me out.”

Mao Nana was like a deflated balloon. If Pei Ge was willing to believe her, she would tell her all that Qu Xiujie had done to her in the past few days.

“How can that be? Did he really chase you out before?”

Pei Ge did not believe it. She rolled up her sleeves and took out a new apron from the cabinet at the kitchen door. She put on the sleeve guards and walked into the kitchen. Mao Nana, who was following behind her, sounded like a little wife who had been bullied. She said in a wronged voice, “That’s right. When I first came to the capital, Uncle always told me to find a place to stay.”

Mao Nana raised her head and looked at Pei Ge’s curvaceous figure. It seemed to be different from when they met in America. Now, Pei Ge was even more outstanding. Even when she met Pei Ge earlier, Mao Nana could not believe that this was still the Pei Ge she knew back then.

“He probably wants me to move out of the house as soon as possible and find a place to stay.”

Mao Nana felt a little helpless and found it to be a pity.

“How can that be? Uncle isn’t that kind of person.”

Pei Ge did not wish to believe it but she knew that with Qu Xiujie’s personality, he could really do such a thing. However, before Pei Ge could confirm it, Mao Nana shook her head and proved Pei Ge wrong.

“Ge Ge, you don’t know that your uncle will really do this. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard him wanting to kick me out. If I’m lying to you, then I’ll curse myself for not putting salt in my food today. Curse myself for not being able to eat good food in the future.”

“Isn’t this oath a little too vicious?”

Pei Ge still remembered that Mao Nana was a girl who was very particular about food. Why was she suddenly willing to swear on her life for Qu Xiujie?

However, that was not all she expected.

“Ge Ge, why don’t I move out of the house? He doesn’t want to take me in anyway. Since he doesn’t want me to stay here, I’ll just leave. At most, I’ll go to another place by myself. I’m a model, and I have a few heads of companies who want to poach me.”

Mao Nana looked at the white wall. Her sorrow even tainted the white wall in front of her. Even Pei Ge, who was standing at the side with a few plates of vegetables and salad, seemed to sense her emotions.

Pei Ge turned to look at her and consoled, “Nana, you must believe that in my uncle’s heart, he definitely hopes that you can be better and more outstanding.”

Pei Ge’s voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, calming the unhappiness in Mao Nana’s heart. It was as if she had a new definition at this moment.

“But Ge Ge, I really —”

“Promise me now that you won’t think about anything and just stay in the house. I know what you’re thinking. I knew it ever since I found out that uncle saved a little girl in R City. I just didn’t know that the person he saved was you. I didn’t know that you were actually willing to give up such a good job for my uncle and go to the capital to look for him.”

Pei Ge was touched by Mao Nana’s actions.

“If I don’t look for him, he won’t look for me either. I can only take the initiative.”

Mao Nana snorted and thought that if Qu Xiujie did not accept her, she might really choose to give up.

“It’s not good for a girl to take the initiative.”

Pei Ge’s voice was filled with smiles as she thought that if Mao Nana left the house, Qu Xiujie would be the one to regret it.

Although Qu Xiujie had always been cold to Mao Nana, Pei Ge knew that it was because he did not want to affect her future. After all, in Qu Xiujie’s heart, it was a joyous occasion for a young girl like Mao Nana to be willing to interact with him.

However, after experiencing the surprise of her liking him, he was unsure of himself.

Perhaps the two of them would really be together and perhaps they would not be together, but Pei Ge knew that Mao Nana had already tried her best and Qu Xiujie was just pushing her away.

“Ge Ge, do you think that if we women take the initiative to woo men, we won’t end up well? Which part of me doesn’t satisfy your uncle?”

Mao Nana fell into deep thought. She had thought about it for a long time but could not figure out what she was that made Qu Xiujie unhappy and even felt that she was not worthy of the women before him.

“Nana, don’t think like that. You’re already very outstanding, but my uncle hasn’t changed. When he does, perhaps you’ll have already made a name for yourself in your career.”

Pei Ge consoled her softly. She thought that if Mao Nana was unwilling to leave this dead end, then there was no need for her to continue staying here. After all, she should not waste her youth.

Although the house was small, it trapped the couple.

“Ge Ge, I understand. I just don’t understand what he has to be so conflicted about. I’m a woman and I’m not as shy as him. If I were him, I would definitely marry such a good woman without a second thought. He, on the other hand, keeps pushing me away. If not for my thick skin, I would probably have moved out of the house like he said.”

Mao Nana pursed her red lips and her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears. As long as she was here, she would be a burden. As long as Qu Xiujie was unwilling to do it, no one could force him or even chase her out.

“Nana, believe me. My uncle really doesn’t think that way. You’re just overthinking it.”

Pei Ge could not bear it.
