Chapter 731: Untitled
Not only did Mo Jue’s face become contorted, but he was stunned as well. His mind was entirely blank. The only thought he had in mind was that those words felt unbelievable to hear.
Greet?
How?
There was a moment of silence. ‘Oh, god, Daddy Mo is really biased to Su Ruyu.’ All of his thoughts were on Su Ruyu. Judging from the expression of the two brothers, everybody felt that it would be disastrous if the four of them were to live together in the future.
“Dad, we just woke up,” Mo Ye responded quickly and said calmly. Mo Jue looked down and remained silent, leaving everything to his brother. An older brother should bear some responsibilities for his younger brother sometimes.
“Are you full yet?” Mo Shitian asked in an indifferent tone.
Everybody looked at the empty plates on the table and remained silent. ‘Can they say no?’
“Then, why are you still sitting around?” Mo Shitian asked coldly.
Mo Ye was speechless. He hesitated and said, “Dad, you have to give us some time to adapt.”
“Haven’t I given you enough time? You could even give birth to a baby in a night’s time. Stop wasting time!” Daddy Mo was furious. He stared at the two of them coldly.
Ye Wei snickered at Daddy Mo’s analogy. It was so on point.
Mo Ye simply kept quiet. ‘Words are expensive these days. As expected, silence is gold.’ However, it didn’t mean that Mo Shitian would stay quiet. He said calmly, “Bring breakfast to your mother later.”
Daddy Mo left in a manly manner, leaving them with a cool and arrogant back view.
Everybody looked at each other, speechless. Mo Jue almost broke the cup that he was holding when Ye Wei nudged him. “What are you doing?”
“What kind of rule is this? Why do we have to greet her in the morning?” Mo Jue couldn’t help but mutter. Jason laughed. “Haha, who knew that the two of you would end up like this too? I feel so good. Indeed, the most effective way to fight violence is to use violence. Mo Shitian is so cool.”
Everybody was lost for words.
After a while, Dana served breakfast and asked, “Master, do you need me to bring it over?”
She had cooked a bowl of hot porridge according to Daddy Mo’s orders. The fragrant seafood porridge was for Old Witch, but she didn’t know what Mo Shitian liked to eat. Hence, she prepared both Western and Chinese food for him.
“Put it down!” Su Man said calmly. Dana nodded and put the plates down.
Everybody looked at Mo Ye and Mo Jue at the same time. Chu Li gloated and asked, “Why aren’t you two serving the two chairmen of your family with breakfast?”
Mo Ye glared at him. He didn’t want to go. He was not ready yet. Mo Jue thought the same. Without any sympathy, Jason said, “I bet you will be scolded by Daddy Mo badly when you go over.”
“The atmosphere will turn awkward!”
‘Indeed.’ Everybody agreed.
Mo Jue looked toward Ye Wei all of a sudden. “Go with me.”
“Why should I?” Ye Wei raised her eyebrows. She didn’t need to greet her anyway. “Please, my master is already sick of us after seeing us for more than ten years. All she wants is just to see you and hear you calling her ‘mom’. Why are you so thoughtless?”
“Scram!” Mo Ye spat out a word coldly.
Black J said calmly, “Why are you not as aggressive toward Daddy Mo like you were with us? I bet you don’t even dare to fart in front of him.”
“This is called being filial. Stop gloating.” Rong Yan smiled faintly. Ping-er complimented Rong Yan for being virtuous, generous, and sensible, which made Chu Li happy.
Mo Jue looked at Ye Wei calmly. “Aren’t you the one who asked me to please my mother-in-law? Have you seen any sons-in-law meet their mothers-in-law without their wives?”
Ye Wei was at a loss for words.
‘Fine, Gorgeous Mo Jue. How dare you use my words against me? Great. That’s good. You’ve improved.’
So, after a few rounds of arguing, Mo Ye held the plates in his hands while Mo Jue held Ye Wei. Together with Eleven, the four of them went to Su Ruyu’s courtyard. On the way, Ye Wei was even glared at by the Mo brothers for muttering about how timid they were.
“Try exchanging fathers with us.” Mo Ye sneered coldly.
Eleven said, “The two of you are hard to get along with.”
Finally, the four of them reached Su Ruyu’s door with an incredibly slow speed. Just as they reached the door, they heard the fierce voice of Mo Shitian and Su Ruyu’s cold voice. They looked at each other and Ye Wei shouted, “Old Witch, we are here to see you.”
“Come in!” Su Ruyu replied. The four of them entered. Su Ruyu’s courtyard was like a small garden filled with camellias. It looked quieter and more elegant than Su Man’s.
She sat at the stone table in the courtyard with a pile of information in hand. They didn’t know what she was reading, but Daddy Mo, who was beside her, looked annoyed, as if she had just given him a good lecture.
Su Ruyu didn’t expect to see the four of them. She had thought that only Ye Wei and Eleven came. Upon seeing Mo Ye and Mo Jue, she was slightly stunned and stared fixedly at them. Mo Ye and Mo Jue made eye contact with her. One of them looked down while the other turned away. Su Ruyu felt as if her heart was poked by needles. Mo Shitian’s gaze became more and more violent, until Su Ruyu warned him with her cold gaze. He sneered.
“Old Witch, what are you doing early in the morning?” Ye Wei walked closer to her and Mo Jue had no choice but to follow her and get closer to Su Ruyu as well. Because Ye Wei was injured, she sat down beside her.
Su Ruyu watched her strange movements and asked, “What are you doing here when your legs are injured?”
“I haven’t seen you in a long time. I miss you!” Ye Wei spread her arms and pounced on her, giving her a kiss on her neck. Mo Shitian raised his eyebrows and looked at her coldly. Ye Wei turned her head and asked innocently, “Old Witch, do I have to ask for his permission before kissing you?”
“What nonsense are you saying?”
“He glared at me.”
“Aren’t you thick-skinned? Are you afraid of being stared at?”
“Old Witch, how can you say such things about your beloved disciple?” Ye Wei hugged her and rubbed against her slightly, while Mo Ye placed the breakfast down on the table. Eleven put away the pile of information immediately.
“Master, what are you reading?” She looked at them curiously.
“The virus research has reached a critical stage, and Su Man and Bai Ye have encountered a bottleneck. They gave me these files this morning,” Su Ruyu said. Her gaze fell on Mo Ye and Mo Jue unknowingly. The mother and sons had been apart for many years, and Mo Ye and Mo Jue were not used to having her around. They didn’t know what to say to her and could only watch Ye Wei and Eleven talk to her while facing Mo Shitian’s fierce gaze pitifully.
