Chapter 1418: I’ll Protect Her

But no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Jiang Luoli didn’t match Mo Shixiu at all.

If Yan Shaoqing was so shocked, it was obvious how shocked everyone else was.

Of course, they didn’t know Jiang Luoli.

But everyone knew Mo Shixiu.

Mo Shixiu was always alone no matter where he went.

This was the first time he was accompanied by a woman in public.

And he brought her home. It was obvious what this meant.

Many people started speculating about Jiang Luoli’s identity.

Some of the socialites who had long been in love with Mo Shixiu were even more heartbroken. They sized Jiang Luoli up over and over again, wishing they could poke a hole in her.

Which rich young lady could have such an honor for Mo Shixiu to bring her to the Mo family’s banquet?

No one would be surprised if someone else brought a female companion.

But if a woman appeared beside Mo Shixiu, it would definitely mean something.

This woman was definitely not just a female companion.

Mo Shixiu brought Jiang Luoli to Qiao Mianmian and Mo Yesi.

Jiang Luoli saw the old lady standing on stage. Although the old lady looked kind, Jiang Luoli was still nervous as it was her first time seeing his family.

The moment she saw Qiao Mianmian, she let go of Mo Shixiu’s hand and grabbed Qiao Mianmian’s arm instead. “Baby, there are so many people here, I’m so scared. The old lady on stage with Chen Chen, is that Grandma Mo?”

“Mm, that’s Grandma.” Qiao Mianmian recalled how nervous she was when she first returned to the Mo Residence with Mo Yesi, so she could understand Jiang Luoli’s feelings.

She held Jiang Luoli’s hand and said, “Don’t be afraid. Grandma is a good person. She’ll definitely like you.”

“Is that so?” Jiang Luoli bit her lip and took a deep breath. “But I’m still very nervous. Baby, can you always be with me? With you by my side, I feel less afraid.”

Mo Shixiu was speechless.

He felt like Jiang Luoli had neglected him.

He was her boyfriend.

Did she feel insecure being with him?

“Miss Jiang, isn’t it enough that my Big Brother is with you?” Mo Yesi rarely saw Mo Shixiu depressed. He looked at his Big Brother and smiled. “What are you afraid of? Big Brother will protect you. Do you think he’ll let others bully you?”

Jiang Luoli bit her lip.

She knew that Mo Shixiu would protect her and not let anyone bully her.

But she was still afraid.

She only felt more relaxed when she was with her best friend.

Before she came, she told herself not to care too much about what the Mo family thought of her and their attitude towards her.

Anyway, Mo Shixiu said that whether his family accepted her or not, it wouldn’t affect their relationship.

But even though she was mentally prepared, she couldn’t help but feel nervous and afraid.

She realized that she actually cared about the Mo family’s attitude towards her.

“I’ll protect her and not let anyone bully her.” Mo Shixiu reached out and held Jiang Luoli’s hand.
