Chapter 56 - Huge!
Chapter 56: Huge!
Old Madam Mo did not like this girl at all, but her second-daughter-law or Mo Yu’s mother had already decided to pair Qu Xuan with Mo Yu. Even though they had only interacted a few times, Old Madam Mo already saw through the girl’s disguise.
The three got on very awkwardly. As Qu Xuan tried to find another topic, the sound of a car came from outside the door.
Soon, Mo Yu, Lin Mu and Mo Li entered the door one after another.
Seeing Mo Yu, Qu Xuan burst into a bright smile. Then she walked over gracefully with a cup of water to offer Qu Xuan. However, when she saw Mo Li, her expression froze. Who is this woman?
She noticed how stormy Mo Yu’s face was and she asked in concerned, “Ah Yu, what’s wrong? And who is she?”
Mo Li glanced at the girl indifferently and walked past her to her elders. “Grandpa, Grandma!”
Noting how friendly the two elders were towards Mo Li, Qu Xuan immediately felt the threat to her position.
“Wait, are you…” Lin Mu stared at Qu Xuan and suddenly spoke. Qu Xuan turned to the young man and stretched out her hand elegantly, ready to shake Lin Mu’s hand. She was ready to say, “Yes, I am her…”
Lin Mu interrupted her by saying, “Yes, I’ve seen you on TV before. Weren’t you in those dumb dramas when you were a child?” Qu Xuan was stunned. She was indeed a child actor but she had never heard her career being described in that manner before. “Right, you’re also on that lingerie and contact lens commercial. They’re not bad, your future is huge!”
Qu Xuan’s expression froze. It sure sounded like this young man was giving her backhanded compliments. Is he one of my haters? Qu Xuan turned to Mo Yu with a pout, hoping that he would come to her rescue.
Mo Yu though only said with annoyance, “Grandpa, Grandma! This is Mo Family estate, how can you just let any outsider wander their way in?” Mo Yu was already in a bad mood and Qu Xuan’s presence only gave Lin Mu more ammunition to mock him. He kicked his shoes to the side, ignoring the glass of water proffered by Qu Xuan and strode into the room.
Qu Xuan’s expression turned rigid. She tried to recall if she had done anything to offend Mo Yu recently. She couldn’t think of anything. Normally she only stayed by his side quietly, she never even spoke a word, so how could she offend him?
“Ah Yu, I’m here today…”
“The two of you, come upstairs with me.” Mo Li cut Qu Xuan off.
Lin Mu shrugged and stepped into Elder Mo’s house. Then he followed Mo Li upstairs. Of all the girls he met, there was none like Mo Li. Furthermore, he had heard about this Miss Mo before but she was completely unlike the rumors! Now he was just curious what she was up to. Was she going to take revenge on Mo Yu’s behalf? Or apologize to him on Mo Yu’s behalf? Either way, it was going to be interesting!
Mo Yu was worried that Mo Li might really apologize on his behalf so he quickly hurried after her and Lin Mu up the stairs. His apology was his own to give and not through anyone else.
Everyone in the house was stunned. What is happening? Did Mo Li drug Mo Yu? How come the two who are normally like cat and dog so cooperative with each other today? Mo Yu did everything Mo Li had told him to, that is so unlike him!
Lin Mu walked at the forefront and was the first to reach the second floor. Before Lin Mu could have a look around, Mo Li whipped the cane against the door frame. It made Lin Mu jump. Even though he was prepared, he was startled and staggered a step back. Instantly his face paled. This is not good, she has led me here to take revenge for Mo Yu! I have fallen into a trap!
“Since Lin Family doesn’t seem to care about the education of their children, then I will take up the task and help them today. I will help you learn the meaning of manners!” Mo Li accompanied that with a whip to Lin Mu’s leg. It instantly caused the young man to wail in pain. To be fair, Mo Li didn’t really use much force. It was merely to scare the young man.
“Fuck, you damn bitch! Are you crazy? You dare to hit me?”
Mo Yu was confounded as well. What is she doing?
However, he didn’t forget that he too was part of the culprits. It was because he fought with Lin Mu that they got sent into detention. He quickly retreated to avoid Mo Li’s whips.
Then it struck Mo Yu that the reason Mo Li bailed them out from the station was because she wanted to teach them a lesson personally!
However, Mo Li was acting too recklessly. Lin Mu came from a military family. He was the sole heir of Lin Family, he had never been treated like this before!
