After leaving the Lan Family’s house, Mo Jinrong and Mo San got into a black car.

Mo Jinrong wore his sunglasses calmly and looked straight ahead.

“Master Rong, are you really going to marry Young Mistress Lan?” Mo San asked politely.

“Mmh,” Mo Jinrong replied simply.

“But I heard that she is from the countryside. Is she really worthy to be the young lady of the Mo Family? You are rumoured to be a man-eating monster with an ugly appearance. I thought Lan Anran would refuse the marriage… I didn’t expect her to agree so willingly.”

Mo San was amazed by Lan Anran’s appearance, but looks alone weren’t enough to be the young lady of the Mo Family.

Strangely, she didn’t object and was very calm, which surprised him.

There was a hint of contempt in his tone.

“As a village girl, it is her blessing to be able to marry into the Mo Family. She can disregard the eyes of others, but that is because of the Mo Family’s money. Just let her be,” Mo Jinrong spoke coldly.

In the past few years, many had wanted to marry into the Mo Family, which had hundreds of millions in fortune. How innocent could a country girl be?

“Is there news of Zero?” Mo Jinrong asked seriously.

Mo San shelved his look of contempt and replied seriously, “Sorry, Master Rong, there is no news yet. This person is untraceable internationally. It is difficult for anyone to locate her exact position.”

“Still not found?” Mo Jinrong was slightly disappointed.

“Master Rong, don’t be discouraged, I will continue to look for her. Since she exists, we will definitely be able to find her.”

Zero was an internationally renowned psychologist and her hypnosis was said to be exceptional. Many sought her help, but not many had the ability to engage her.

Mo Jinrong had always wanted to find Zero, as he needed her to hypnotise him, but there was still no result even after searching for a few years. He only ran into her once by accident, but could remember her big watery eyes.

“Speed up,” Mo Jinrong said indifferently.

“Yes.”

After Mo San finished addressing his official business, he continued to care about Young Mistress Lan.

“Master Rong, forgive me for asking, don’t lose your life because of a woman, your illness…”

Mo Jinrong took off his sunglasses and looked at him coldly.

“Do you care about her so much?”

“No, no, I dare not, I’m just concerned about your body. You haven’t touched a woman in so many years, but now, you’re suddenly going to get married? Will your body be able to take it? After all, your illness hasn’t healed, just in case…”

Mo San looked at him worriedly.

“There is nothing to worry about. We are going to be married, but I won’t touch her. It’s just a mutual agreement.”

Mo Jinrong had very serious angina pectoris, but his condition wouldn’t flare up anytime or anywhere, it would only happen if he touched a woman. His body’s stress response would cause his heart to overload, causing the angina pectoris.

Hence, he needed Zero to help him with hypnotherapy. This wasn’t a disease that could be treated with medication, it was a psychological disorder.

He had sought out countless self-proclaimed renowned psychologists who prescribed him with numerous psychological drugs, but none of them worked.

Zero was his last hope.

...

Lan Anran was in her room, staring silently at the jade bracelet in her hand.

Her mind was filled with memories of her past life.

In her past life, Mo Jinrong had given her an identical bracelet when they got married, which shone brightly in the sun. But back then, she didn’t understand and thought that Mo Jinrong was being perfunctory by giving her a piece of glass for their marriage.

She was very dissatisfied and broke the bracelet in front of everyone. Since then, the distance between her and Mo Jinrong had grown deeper and deeper.

It wasn’t until this life did she know that she had let him down. This was a piece of glass jade, which was extremely valuable. The mining of the material was very rare. She felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart.

She wore the bracelet. She would definitely protect it well in this lifetime.

Just as Lan Anran was immersed in the memories of her past life, she heard a mocking voice from outside which made her extremely upset. When she heard the voice, she knew that the hated Lan Yaxin was here.

“Second Uncle, I heard that Mo Jinrong was here. Is Sis very sad? I’m here to comfort her.”

When Lan Yaxin went back to Zhao Xiumei, she heard that Mo Jinrong had come to ask for Anran’s hand and had wanted to see how ugly her brother-in-law was.

She was wearing a sad and tormented expression.

“Mo Jinrong just left.”

Lan Tingyun’s face was especially grim and he felt upset at the thought of Mo Jinrong’s old and ugly appearance.

He wasn’t worthy of her beauty at all.

When Lan Yaxin saw Lan Tingyun’s expression, she had a faint idea. Everyone said that Mo Jinrong was vulgar and tyrannical and it seemed to be true. Fortunately, she wasn’t the one getting married.

“What about Anran? I want to visit her.”

Lan Yaxin looked inside, and frowned when she saw the dowry not far away.

“What do you want?” Lan Anran came down when she heard the voice and asked angrily.

“Sis, I’m here to see you. I heard that my future brother-in-law was here.. He didn’t bully you, right?” Lan Yaxin asked pretentiously, her gaze still on the gifts in the corner.
