Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 858

Shortly after, the two ended up sitting at the dining table together like things had never changed between them.

But, a moment later, Quan Ziye received a phone call from Mother Quan. He did not hide from Lin Qian. Instead, he openly talked to Mother Quan in front of her, "Yes, I moved. It's for the convenience of work."

"Your father is almost turning 60. No matter what, you need to find time to come back for it."

"We'll talk about it when it gets closer," Quan Ziye replied before he hung up the phone.

A few seconds later, Lin Qian's phone began to ring. It was the same person calling. Lin Qian froze for a few seconds before she picked up, "Mom..."

"Your father is turning 60. Come home to visit," Mother Quan said with neither a cold nor warm tone before she hung up the phone without waiting for a response.

Lin Qian put away her phone and continued to eat her dinner like nothing had happened. But, this prompted Quan Ziye to analyze her expression.

"Angry?"

"I'm not that petty!" Lin Qian replied. "You and your mother are two separate people, I'm well aware of this."

"Then eat more. These are all your favorite dishes..."

Lin Qian originally wanted to tell him that there was no point doing what he was doing since they would never last long. But, Quan Ziye was so happy that she couldn't bare to say these words to him.

It wasn't that she was being pessimistic and unwilling to fight for her happiness. But, she was afraid that Quan Ziye would be left completely wounded. She didn't want to hurt the person that was most important to her.

...

After lunch, Mo Ting and Tangning finally arrived at the private island where Qiao Sen lived and quickly explained to his family why they were there.

But, Qiao Sen's daughter directly rejected Tangning and asked her to leave. "It wasn't easy for my father to let go of his obsession and recover from his illness. I don't want him to come in contact with the film industry again. I feel that his current carefree lifestyle is more suited to him."

"Miss Qiao, I know that I am digging up a sad past. But, no matter how good Director Qiao is at pretending that he's given up, his biggest dream in life will always be to film an awe-inspiring sci-fi film. This is something he's persisted for a few decades, how difficult would it be to give up now?"

"If you guys don't let him try, he may be able to temporarily feign happiness to appease you. But, in the long-term, he will eventually realize that he can't let go of his hope and dream."

"I hope you can think this over. I will be staying at a hotel that is 10km away from the island. I will wait there for your response."

The woman received Tangning's business card, but immediately threw it into the bin.

"I don't trust people from the entertainment industry."

"Please leave and never come back."

The seabreeze swept up Tangning's coat, making her shiver. But, everything was within Tangning's expectations.

Mo Ting pulled her into his embrace and kissed her on the forehead, "Let's go. We'll wait at the hotel. It's cold here."

"It's fine. I want to stand here for a little while," Tangning replied. "Since I'm here already, I can't return empty-handed. I can empathize with Director Qiao's family, so I know that I need to show them my standpoint."

Mo Ting did not say a word as he drove his car over to shield the wind for Tangning.

In this moment, he was Tangning's most stable form of support.

Like this, the couple ended up standing by the seaside until late into the night. From the looks of it, the other party had not changed their mind yet.

"Get into the car, otherwise, you might catch a cold."

After standing in the seabreeze for a good few hours, Tangning knew that Mo Ting had reached his limits. She also knew that she couldn't treat her body lightly. But, at this time, the metal gate to the property opened and Qiao Sen's daughter said reluctantly to the couple, "My father wants to invite the two of you in."

Tangning turned around and glanced at Mo Ting before they followed Miss Qiao into the villa.

At this moment, Qiao Sen was busy fishing. It was best to go fishing at night because schools of fish generally came to the surface to feed during this time.
