Chapter 3: A Huge Drama

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Elder Mo looked at Chi Xiao, who was obviously stunned on the spot, with a complicated expression. After a moment, he suddenly laughed out loud, “Forget it, forget it. It was determined by heavens. Since it’s a fate between you two, we old folks won’t get involved.”

After saying that, he asked his assistant, who had followed him all his life, to help him up to go back. He walked out without stopping to listen to Mo Ting’s mother’s screaming.

She felt that she had lost face, but she could not blame Elder Mo. Qi Yun could only blame it all on that ugly freak who had just entered the house.

Seeing that ugly freak standing there in a daze, Qi Yun’s anger immediately rose. She angrily rebuked, “What are you looking at? Can’t you see that Elder Mo has already left?”

Chi Xiao felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of her, who she should call her mother-in-law.

The elder had left. What did this have to do with her? Why did she vent her anger on her?

Chi Xiao’s clear gaze made Qi Yun feel uneasy. It was as if she was making trouble for no reason. Just as she was about to flare up, she felt a sinister gaze looking at her. She turned her head and saw that although his son’s face was pale and extremely frail, he was looking at her with a disapproving gaze.

Qi Yun was startled. That’s right, she could not flare up now. If she treated Chi Xiao coldly now, it would only bring shame to her family.

Qi Yun fiercely glared at Chi Xiao before turning her head to sit by Mo Ting’s bed. She looked at Mo Ting with teary eyes.

At this moment, Mo Ting was extremely weak and could not even speak. He could only place his gaze on Chi Xiao.

Qi Yun loved her child very much. Although she didn’t like Chi Xiao, she still said, “Why are you still standing there? Didn’t you see that my son called you over?”

Chi Xiao slowly walked over and stopped a few steps away from Mo Ting.

Mo Ting lay on the bed and raised his eyes to look at her.

It was very strange.

He clearly had no memory of her, but Mo Ting felt that this woman looked very familiar to him.

The more he carefully traced the woman’s features, the more familiar Mo Ting became. He really did not know what kind of poison was flowing inside him.

Seeing how Mo Ting seemed to be paying close attention to this woman, Qi Yun’s heart was extremely tired.

In the past, so many ladies from prestigious families had come to pursue Mo Ting, but he did not even look at them. If a lady from a prestigious family was not good enough, then celebrities in the entertainment industry were also good. However, no matter what kind of people came to pursue him, Mo Ting would only give them the cold should and would never make people think more of it.

There were even some women who thought they were smart and stripped naked on Mo Ting’s bed. However, Mo Ting was able to do something like throwing people out of his room.

This was to the extent that Qi Yun sometimes even suspected that Mo Ting might be interested in a different type of partner.

This was the case until four years ago, when Mo Ting brought back a baby.

The baby was only about three to four months old. Its face had strips of black and white, and it didn’t have the tenderness that a baby should have.

Although the baby was not good-looking, Qi Yun was relieved. It was actually… not a bad thing that her son was fooling around outside.

“Ahem, since Ting has woken up, we will take our leave first.” The other members of the Mo family said their goodbyes.

Only Mo Ting’s second uncle’s family remained. They looked at Mo Ting, who was lying on the bed with his illness. The corner of the second uncle’s lips curled into an inexplicable smile. “Sister-in-law, Ting has made it through this time. We don’t know if he will make it next time. You should be prepared.”

After saying that, he turned his eyes to Mo Jun. He said amiably, “Big Brother, you know that we are connected by blood and flesh. I’m also sincerely doing this for your good. You’d better let go of the rights. Otherwise, I’m really afraid that if young Ting can’t be saved, the Mo family will suffer greatly.”

Mo Jun still wanted to force a smile and send his younger brother away peacefully. Unexpectedly, Qi Yun suddenly became angry. She screamed in shock, chased him away and scolded him angrily.

However, his character was still high. He couldn’t even say anything new when he scolded someone.

After chasing second uncle away, Qi Yun turned around and pointed at Mo Jun’s nose and scolded, “You’re a good-for-nothing. You can only teach your own family a lesson. Your younger brother has already shit on your head, so why aren’t you saying anything?”

Mo Jun frowned and waved his hand impatiently. “What are you talking about? What shit? Is this your character?”

It was probably because he knew that he was in the wrong and was afraid that Qi Yun would make a scene again, that Mo Jun turned around and left with a cold expression.

Chi Xiao, who had watched a free show in the house, had yet to put down the smile on her face and she shivered when she met Mo Ting’s clear eyes.

This man’s eyes were good-looking, but they were also really aggressive.

Chi Xiao even felt that under this man’s gaze, she had nowhere to hide in her disguise.

Frowning, Chi Xiao took a step back uncomfortably. No one liked this kind of gaze that could see through them.

Not long after, Mo Ting started coughing. The heart-wrenching cough made Chi Xiao’s heart tremble.

Qi Yun stood to the side, but she could do nothing. She could only be anxious, and her eyes instantly turned red.

After all, since Chi Xiao was a benevolent doctor, she picked up Mo Ting’s left hand and massaged at some acupoints. From time to time, she would pinch other parts of Mo Ting. Only then did Mo Ting’s coughing slowly stop..
