《The Side Character’s Hidden Boss!》The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

The gentle and brisk male voice sounded softly beside Mo Li's ears.

Mo Li had to look at the man's face for a while before she remembered who the man was. It was the homeless man from the hospital! Then again, he couldn't be homeless if he was invited to an event like this. For a moment, Mo Li felt like she had wasted her food that day.

​​

"What were you looking at on the computer just now?" Mo Li extricated herself from Quan Yu's grasp and made to escape. She was ready to stand up when Quan Yu said, "Wasn't that the website for the International Sacred Heart Medical Research Centre?"

There was an interested tone in Quan Yu's voice, not everyone would be given access to Sacred Heart's website. Only people with authorization code could access it. The website was an archive for academic theses collected from many research centres across the globe. The membership was open only to the medical elites so how did this girl get in?

Mo Li was equally surprised that this man knew Sacred Heart. Thankfully, she didn't have time to log into her personal account but only stopped at the website's front page. "My third brother's leg is injured, I borrowed an account to contact the doctors from Sacred Heart, hoping that they'd come to help him." Mo Li gave a reasonable excuse.

Quan Yu approached the girl like a stalking panther. Mo Li, who was unused to close contact, leaned backwards until she was basically sinking into the cushion of the soda. The two looked at each other. Quan Li's eyes were full of inquiry, but Mo Li's eyes were only filled with impatience.

"Sir, please stay away from me. I have to return to the ball downstairs." Mo Li had more than enough interaction with this strange man. She just wanted to leave now.

"My pretty lady, in order to thank you for your previous meal, I can give you one promise of mine. Furthermore, there is another present that I've prepared for you inside this laptop, something that you'll love."

Mo Li frowned as she looked at Quan Yu, "Wait, do you know me? Why would you prepare a present for me?" Quan Yu smiled and didn't answer. He tilted his head at the laptop.

Only then Mo Li realized the laptop belonged to Quan Yu. Earlier, she hurried to log onto the Sacred Heart website so she didn't notice there was a folder on the desktop. Interestingly enough, it was entitled with the date when she had allegedly run into Mo Zheng. Mo Li's interest was piqued. She clicked open the folder and realized there were several video files inside. She turned her gaze to Quan Yu, waiting for his explanation.

Being stared by Mo Li's glittering eyes, Quan Yu had the urge to grab her and plant kisses on her flawless face but he was afraid that it would frighten her away. So he turned his attention to the laptop instead. "These are the video footage from the car accident site of your third brother. According to the police, the traffic cams near that area have all been mysteriously ruined. So I found people to salvage from the ruin. I'm still working on the rest of the cam footage but take a look at these, you'll find someone unexpected in them."

Mo Li looked at the man in surprise. The car which ran into Mo Zheng was Mo Yi's birthday present for Mo Li, combine that with Mo Zheng's accusation, no one believed her argument that she was not the culprit. Normally the car was driven by her driver, but that day the driver was missing. Her family refused to side with her but she had found support instead in this man whom she had just met once.

Mo Li couldn't describe what she was feeling. If the original Mo Li had met such a person, would she have been spared an early death?

Quan Yu saw the girl sink into deep contemplation, regret lacing her eyes. He wondered what she was thinking and couldn't help himself from leaning in closer to observe.

Mo Li was startled by his action.

As she leaned away, she noticed how pale Quan Yu's face was. She was also reminded of the circumstances from the last time they met. She diagnosed him instantly with having a bad heart. Since he had shown her such kindness, Mo Li made the decision to help this strange man, to heal him back to health.

"Thank you for the present, I like it very much. I owe you one. I will repay you when I have the chance, what is your name?" Mo Li would have to take a deeper examination of his body to confirm her prognosis so she didn't bring up the promise that she made to herself.

"The name's Quan Yu, so now you owe me one and I owe you one. I see a lot more interactions between us in the future." Quan Yu said as he noticed the girl blush due to his increasing approach.

Mo Li was about to say something else when a series of hurried footsteps came from the door. Then it was followed by Xiao Yue's disappointed voice. "Uncle Mo, I saw Mo Li come this way. It should be this room. Pang Jian was with her all the time, I'm sure they how to conduct them at a place like this!"

Xiao Yue made it sound like Mo Li and Pang Jian were doing something unbecoming. Mo Yi and Mo Yun followed behind her with dark expressions. After they shared a look, Mo Yun knocked on the door.

Mo Li heard them and quickly pushed Quan Yu away, they were in too compromising of a posture. As fate would have it, Quan Yu's sickness kicked in and he lost consciousness. The entire weight of his body fell on Mo Li. Mo Li tried to shake him off, but he was too heavy.

Mo Li's heart fluttered further when she realized she forgot to lock the door after she came in. She worried that the relationship that she so pain-stakingly rebuild with her father and brother would be shattered when they saw this. However, the man who leaned on top of her refused to move. Mo Li was desperate that her eyes watered. In her desperation, she turned to bite on the man's wrist which laid next to her head trying to wake the man.

At that moment, Mo Yi and Mo Yun slowly pushed open the door.

And Mo Li was still trapped under Quan Yu, his large and muscular body trapping her underneath him!
