Was he hallucinating? Was she not here at all?
Xi Shang narrowed his eyes, finding it hard to believe that he had made a wrong judgment.
He closed the door gently with suspicion, rubbed his temple, repeated the action, and opened it again.
A living person was standing in front of the desk.
Yun Moshu heard the noise behind her and turned around immediately, her calmness mixed with an inexplicable nervousness, "Did you just come in?"
After these words were spoken, Xi Shang pursed his lips and frowned even more tightly.
Is she out of her mind?
He was knocking on the door just a second ago. How could he get in if he hadn't just come in?
"Yes, what's the problem?"
Seeing that he didn't notice anything unusual, Yun Moshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the other party did not notice that she disappeared and reappeared out of thin air, otherwise it would be troublesome if she was mistaken for a monster.
Xi Shang didn't wait for her answer. He looked at her with a puzzled look, indicating that she should give an answer.
"Nothing, nothing, just asking casually, just asking casually," Yun Moshu waved her hands and laughed twice to hide her embarrassment.
"You... forget it, do you have time to chat?" Xi Shang gave up asking.
"Chat? Of course, what to talk about?"
Yun Moshu calmed down and finally understood the other party's purpose in looking for her.
Xi Shang hesitated for a moment, but then said directly: "I have a grandmother, and her health has not been very good..."
"Oh, you don't have to say it, I understand."
Yun Moshu interrupted him and added to his words with great interest.
"Are you trying to say that your grandma is in poor health and wants to see you get married and have children in her remaining days? Although you don't like it, you can't bear to see your grandma die with regrets. In order to show your filial piety, you plan to find someone to act out a play, and you happened to find me."
"..."
"Well, you should have told me about this earlier. You've kept me terrified for more than a month."
Yun Moshu walked up to him, put her hand on his shoulder, and said meaningfully: "I have already felt Mr. Xi's filial piety. Don't worry, as long as the money is in place, I can agree to anything you want."
"..."
Xi Shang was silent for a moment, reached out and slapped her hand away, looked at her excited face, stepped back, and silently moved a few steps away.
Yun Moshu didn't notice his little move, her eyes sparkling, and she asked expectantly: "So, Mr. Xi, how much can you give me?"
"You think too much. I won't talk about money with you," Xi Shang said indifferently.
"What? You still want to get it for free?"
Yun Moshu exclaimed, and said reluctantly: "Boss Xi, this is your fault. Since you are planning to find an actor to help, how can you not pay?"
Xi Shang's mouth twitched speechlessly.
He only knew that the daughter of the Yun family liked acting, but he didn't expect that she was so deeply involved in the acting and seemed to be obsessed with it.
Xi Shang felt regretful for a moment, he felt he had made a wrong decision.
"Mr. Xi, if you think my price is too high, we can discuss it. Whether it's a good wife and loving mother, or a spoiled and willful person, I can play any type you want."
Yun Moshu kept recommending herself, "Trust me, I've taken some advanced training recently, and I can act very realistically, no one can tell it's fake, it's not a loss for you to hire me."
"Wait, don't talk yet."
Xi Shang frowned and stopped her. He had a hunch that if he let her continue talking, her wild imagination would probably reach outer space.
"You say," Yun Moshu braked suddenly and made a please-you gesture.
"Two months ago, an old lady had a heart attack on Shangyong Road. Did you save her?"
"That seems to be the case."
At that time, there was an old lady lying on the ground, and people around her were afraid of getting involved, so she helped call an ambulance.
Yun Moshu's eyes suddenly opened, "Could the person you are talking about be Madam Xi?"
"That's right," Xi Shang nodded.
"No way, you didn't ask me to act with you?"
Yun Moshu felt like she had missed out on a fortune, and instantly lost interest in chatting with him. "Then what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Because you saved my grandmother, she thinks you are a kind-hearted girl. I am unmarried, so in order to repay you for saving her life, she wants us to get married."
"..."
Now it was Yun Moshu's turn to be speechless.
This plot was even more outrageous than she had imagined. In this era, there was still a plot about saving a life and giving oneself as a token of one's love.
Oh, it wasn't her that was promised, but her grandson.
She curled her lips and complained silently in her heart.
"Are you sure this isn't a revenge?"
Yun Moshu said in a daze: "Boss Xi, listen to my advice. If you really want to repay me, it would be more practical to give me some money."
Xi Shang's eyes moved, and seeing that she was not moved at all, he felt a little surprised.
His Xi family has the final say in North City. He is not bragging. He is young, has a promising career, and keeps himself clean. In the eyes of many people, he is a piece of fat meat.
Especially the advantage of being unmarried made them stare at Mrs. Xi's position.
So when he found out that Yun Moshu was homeless and penniless, he thought she would agree without hesitation. But not only was she not moved, she looked reluctant.
This surprised him a little, but also made him very happy.
"If you marry me, you will have endless money," Xi Shang said bluntly.
"My grandmother likes you and wants me to marry you. On the one hand, you have no parents, you are alone, you have good character, and your IQ... let's not talk about that for now. In short, you meet my requirements."
"I can give you more than you can imagine. Whether you continue acting or want to be a full-time wife, I have no opinion."
Xi Shang is serious. He devotes himself to his career and has no time for romance.
He is not in a hurry to get married, but his family is so anxious that they urge him to go on blind dates every few days, which makes him very annoyed, but the other party are his parents and relatives who are thinking about him, so he can do nothing about it.
He kept putting it off until his grandmother started talking about saving people. When he was looking for someone to investigate whether the incident was an accident, he met Yun Moshu, and that made him think about getting married.
Unfortunately, he was satisfied with her as a person, but did not like the family behind her.
It’s not that the status of the two families is not compatible, but the character of the Yun family that makes him want to retreat.
Others may not know, but he knows it very well.
He had had brief contact with them in a project once, and during the conversation, the Yun family always mentioned their daughter vaguely, as if as long as he was moved and had a moment of intention, the other party would send their daughter to him.
This behavior disgusted him in the first place, until he later found out that the other party liked to cut corners and take kickbacks on materials. He simply eliminated him and never cooperated with him again.
Although this was only a brief contact, it was enough to get a glimpse of the other person's character.
Marriage is a major event in life, and it lasts a lifetime, so he is naturally cautious.
Therefore, it was one thing for him to be satisfied with Yun Moshu, but he could not bear the rotten Yun family for her. He also did not want to have to clean up their mess one day.
So when his grandmother asked him to marry the other party, he did not contact her immediately.
