Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife Chapter 1446

During this era, the economy was thriving. While numerous families had amassed wealth through commercial ventures, the majority of those fortunes remained under the firm control of the family Elders. Even though the younger generation wasn't lacking in funds, very few possessed the freedom to indulge in such lavishness as purchasing yachts and villas just for entertainment.

Such things were impossible unless one was personally capable and managed their own enterprise.

The immense power of the Mo family was common knowledge. Being Mo Beihan’s firstborn son, Mo Yang certainly possessed the competence required for such grand gestures.

Everyone understood that the princes of the Mo family held a unique status. On this occasion, it wasn't just about the recreation; more vital was the chance to socialize with Mo Yang and build a rapport. This type of connection carried more value than any sum of money.

After the lengthy drive, they took some time to rest. The villa was massive. Following a brief tour of the premises, they headed to the rear garden to enjoy themselves. Once the scheduled time arrived, they set out to sea.

The weather couldn't have been better. With the sun shining brightly and a soft sea breeze blowing, the youth of the group found plenty of common ground to discuss.

A barbecue grill had been set up on the deck, fully stocked with ingredients by the servants. A professional chef was on hand to manage the cooking. All the guests had to do was relax, chat, and feast on the gourmet food!

The maritime scenery was breathtaking. The horizon merged into a deep blue where the sky met the water, accompanied by a gentle wind. Since it was such a rare privilege to spend time with Mo Yang, the atmosphere was filled with enthusiasm and joy!

Mo Yang had organized this entire outing specifically for Chu Yue. Noticing the girl standing there watching him, he approached her and placed a glass of fresh juice in her hand. With a grin, he asked, “What’s the matter? Why do you keep looking at me?”

Chu Yue bit her lip softly. “Brother Mo, did you arrange all of this just for me? Actually… you really don't have to do things like this.”

Leaning back against the deck railing, Mo Yang looked at her and replied, “Yue Yue, I was gone for a long time, so it’s only natural if I feel like a stranger to you. Now that I’ve returned, I intend to spend more time with you. Eventually, that feeling of distance will disappear.”

Chu Yue bit her lip again, looking somewhat embarrassed. “I… I don’t think of you as a stranger…”

Mo Yang blinked. “What?”

Chu Yue replied with an innocent gaze, “I never said you felt like a stranger to me. It’s just that…”

“Just what?”

As Mo Yang leaned closer, Chu Yue looked up directly into his eyes. “I… when we were kids, you were always by my side, and I didn't think much of it. But as I grew up, around thirteen or fourteen, I started to feel that you treated me differently than others.

“Back then, I was so happy but also incredibly anxious. I was still so young! I wasn't sure if I should ask you about it, but then you went abroad to study.

“As I got older, I realized how different you were from everyone else, especially during your visits home. Every time I saw you, the gap between you and other people was so obvious.

“That feeling became even stronger when you returned this time. It’s not that you’re a stranger, it’s just… I just… I lost my confidence. You are so remarkable. I truly don’t understand why you would take an interest in me!”

Mo Yang was stunned. He hadn't realized that her hesitation was rooted in such thoughts.

A wave of joy washed over him. Moving closer with a smile, he observed her blushing face and teased, “So, in your heart, you still like Brother Mo?”

Chu Yue’s face turned an even deeper shade of red instantly!

How could she not like him?

He was such an exceptional man; it was impossible not to!

Seeing her reaction, Mo Yang understood everything. His mood brightened immensely, and he felt a surge of pure happiness!

The guests on the trip were fortunate that day. Because the Young Master was in such high spirits, he agreed to almost every request. Throughout the journey, everyone treated Chu Yue with the utmost deference!

They enjoyed the barbecue on the vessel while watching the sun dip below the horizon. They continued their fun until nightfall before returning to the villa by the sea.

The guest quarters were prepared. Mo Yang instructed the servants to guide everyone to their rooms for the night. They would continue the festivities the following day before heading back.

Meanwhile, he took Chu Yue by the hand and led her up to the third-floor balcony.

The balcony was bathed in warm light and featured a cozy little sofa. Exhausted from the day’s activities, Chu Yue sank into the cushions, lacking the energy to move.

Mo Yang sat beside her, pulling her feet onto his lap to massage them. “Are you tired?”

“Mhm!” Chu Yue murmured. “I'm exhausted, but I'm very happy. Brother Mo, I’ve only just seen this side of you!”

Mo Yang looked at her and gave a light laugh. “You'll discover even more as time goes on. Yue Yue, I am still the same Brother Mo from before. I haven't changed at all. Do you understand?”

Chu Yue leaned against him with a smile, holding onto his arm. “I know. My Brother Mo is the same. He’s just become much more capable.”

Mo Yang gazed at the radiant girl beside him. Seeing the familiar look of devotion and trust in her eyes, he stopped what he was doing and pulled her into his embrace. He leaned in, pressing her against the back of the sofa.

“In that case… starting today, will you officially be my girlfriend and marry me once you reach the legal age?”

Chu Yue was caught off guard. She hadn't expected such a direct proposal from Mo Yang.

However, she quickly recovered, her face lighting up with a smile. Her heart was overflowing with a joy she couldn't hide even if she wanted to!

“You… keep dreaming. We'll have to see how you behave. If you aren't good to me, I won't marry you!”

Mo Yang let out a hearty laugh, seeing her attempt to act coy!

“I’m still not good enough to you? Tell me, has there been a single day since we were young that I haven't treated you well? You heartless little thing. Just you wait. I’m definitely marrying you!”

With those words, he pressed his lips against hers.

The moment they touched, a spark of electricity surged through her. She felt a mix of numbness and a pleasant tingling sensation. Under the cool sea breeze and a sky shimmering with stars, the night of her eighteenth year marked the beginning of her sweetest memories!
