438 Chapter 438. Each With Their Own Thoughts
Zhuang Xian gave some to Li Qin helplessly, then picked up her chopsticks and put a piece into her mouth.
Fortunately, there was a thermal food container to keep it warm. This mother’s brand of sweet and sour ribs was as delicious as ever.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly. When she looked at the others, she realized everyone was looking at her. Taken somewhat aback, Zhuang Xian said softly, “What’s wrong? Everyone, hurry up and eat!”
Mo Ye looked at Zhuang Xian, then at Li Qin, and said with a faint smile, “That’s right. Everyone, let’s get moving! After the small conflict, we can be considered to have become friends after a fight.”
As Mo Ye spoke, she exchanged a look with Zhuang Xian. Zhuang Xian was a little embarrassed. After smiling at her, she retracted her gaze and began to eat in silence, but in her heart, she was scolding Li Qin!
Li Qin also felt a little guilty, but he was thick-skinned, so when Mo Ye looked at him, he laughed and said, “I’m sorry, pretty sister! I was the one who was stupid when I scolded you like that! Please don’t stoop to my level. Can you be a generous person and spare me this time?”
As Zhuang Xian listened to Li Qin’s humble and ingratiating words, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud. However, only Mo Qian, who had been watching her the entire time, noticed this.
Mo Qian felt that Zhuang Xian was especially lively and happy tonight. She was suddenly different from her usual image.
The Zhuang Xian now was more like a youthful and sunny girl!
Looking at Zhuang Xian in this state, Mo Qian heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. The pain in his heart from her crying had finally dissipated a little.
He knew the current situation was not suitable for him to ask Zhuang Xian about these things. He thought that he would ask her again during the acupuncture later!
Mo Ye looked at Li Qin, raised his eyebrows, and smiled.”Yo! How can you be so sweet? That’s not what you said to me just now, and now you’re calling me pretty sister?”
Zhuang Bai looked at Mo Ye without a trace, his eyes filled with warmth that he didn’t know.
Even if Zhuang Xian did not see the interaction between her brother and Mo Ye, she should have understood now that she had seen these things.
In her previous life, her older brother Zhuang Bai had been hurt by An Ye’s lies and schemes.
He had not married his entire life and had spent the rest of his life alone and cold. In her previous life, before Ye Xin and Gao Peng tormented Zhuang Xian to the point of insanity, she had only heard the news of her three brothers leaving their homes and escaping abroad in a sorry state.
Now that she thought about it, Zhuang Bai, who had been shocked by the grievous news of his parents’ death, must have been the most pained one!
She had let the Zhuang family down so often that she could not count them!
As Zhuang Xian thought about this, the smile on her face suddenly turned bitter. However, she concealed it very well, so no one should have noticed.
Of course, that excluded Mo Qian, who had been watching her from the start. Everyone had their thoughts during dinner tonight. Zhuang Xian’s mood had been volatile because of Zhuang Bai’s sudden appearance.
She didn’t say much during the meal to hide her unusual behavior.
On the other hand, Mo Qian had been observing Zhuang Xian silently. He would occasionally echo Lei Cheng’s words and say a few words, but he was also exceptionally silent.
Thus, the most active people at the table became Mo Ye and Li Qin, who were always joking with each other, and the gentle and refined Zhuang Bai, who often chatted with them.
Even old Mrs. Mo was smiling as she looked at the people at the table, especially Mo Qian and Zhuang Xian, who didn’t talk much.
Naturally, Zhuang Bai wasn’t just chatting with anyone. He had obtained quite a bit of information.
At least he knew a little about why Mo Qian was so close to his sister.
Zhuang Bai had never thought that his new sister would have such skills. She even knew the green-robed apothecary from Saint Valley Medicine. Saint Valley Medicine’s background must be extraordinary.
Mo Qian’s leg injury was an old illness that had been there for many years. For such a complicated illness, that medicine master called Qing Yi could even try it. How powerful must she be!
Of course, this was not what shocked Zhuang Bai the most. What made him extraordinarily shocked and confused was how did Zhuang Xian get to know such a person?
