Chapter 357: 343, Coveting Property (1) _1

The sound of a slamming door rang out, echoing in the corridor.

Mo Xiao lowered his eyes, glancing at the steaming stew on the table, without the slightest intention of eating.

He walked over, picked up the glass of wine, and headed for the terrace outside the French windows.

Under the night sky, his tall and erect figure seed even lonelier.

He looked up at the crescent moon hanging in the night sky, a flickering glow in his eyes waxing and waning, hinting at his repressed longing.

Weiwei, please don’t be so cruel to

in the next twenty years.

Please co back to !

The next day.

Mo Xiao had always been punctual according to his biological clock. When An Zhonghui and others entered the dining room, he was already sitting there, flipping through a newspaper.

“Uncle!”

“Uncle Mo!”

Seeing An Yu and the others acting obediently, they respectfully called out.

In the An family, other than the grand patriarch, the person they feared the most was not An Zhonghui, but the cold man sitting before them, An Zhe.

Mo Xiao closed the newspaper, his gaze swept over them indifferently, and he gave a noncommittal “hmm.”

An Zhonghui sat down at the head of the table, directly facing Mo Xiao. Seeing him put down the newspaper and stand up to leave, An Zhonghui furrowed his brows but didn’t say anything.

However, Zhou Qi was clearly not happy with that.

“Azhe, aren’t you going to eat more?”

He only ca ho after a long ti, and he didn’t even want to have breakfast with them?

Mo Xiao pushed back the chair and said indifferently, “No need, I’ve finished eating.”

With that, he walked away without looking back.

Zhou Qi was upset and lost her appetite for breakfast.

“Let it be, Azhe rarely cos ho, don’t haggle with him.” An Zhonghui picked up his chopsticks and reminded her.

Zhou Qi reluctantly nodded her head.

In the living room, Ning Feng and Xing Sen had just returned from outside.

Seeing Mo Xiao, they both walked up to him.

Xing Sen spoke first, “Master, the Grandpa has been discharged from the hospital.”

At this, Mo Xiao frowned, “What happened?”

“I heard that Grandpa insisted on being discharged, he should be on his way back now.” Xing Sen said.

He couldn’t figure it out, was it because the old man knew that he saw their master had returned, so he couldn’t stay in the hospital anymore?

Apart from this explanation, he couldn’t think of any other.

“Master, should we cancel today’s schedule?” Ning Feng asked.

After pondering for a mont, Mo Xiao walked over to the sofa and sat down, answering in a cold voice, “Cancel it for now.”

Ning Feng nodded and he and Xing Sen stood aside.

“Big brother!”

A gentle female voice sounded.

Ning Feng and Xing Sen looked in the direction of the sound and saw the person coming, a trace of ridicule and dislike flashed in their eyes.

An Rong was wearing a blue slim-fit suit, a typical rich lady attire.

She walked over and was about to sit next to Mo Xiao when he gave her a cold glance that deterred her.

She gave an awkward smile and sat down on the sofa a little further away from him.

“Big brother, it seems we haven’t seen each other for almost a year, how have you been doing abroad?” She asked with a smile on her face, her tone feigned affection.

Mo Xiao sat with his legs crossed, his hand casually hanging on his knees, he radiated a cold aura that kept people at a distance, showing no interest in engaging with An Rong.

Seeing that he didn’t respond for a long ti and with Ning Feng and Xing Sen watching, An Rong felt greatly embarrassed, a hint of anger flashed in her eyes.

Unfortunately, she still needed his help and could not show any dissatisfaction on her face.

“Big brother, there’s actually sothing I want to talk to you about.”

Ning Feng glanced at her from the corner of his eye, sneering in his heart. A weasel paying New Year’s respects to a chicken, up to no good, that’s what she was.

Barely settled down and her wild ambitions were already showing.

An Rong carefully observed Mo Xiao’s face as she spoke in a soft voice, “Big brother, mom is just worried about you, afraid that you will be alone for the rest of your life, that’s why she is a bit anxious, don’t grudge against her.”

With Mo Xiao’s indifferent expression, An Rong felt a bit more confident.

She continued, “Big brother, it’s okay if you don’t want to get married, I will always stand by your side, but think about it, when you are old, you will need soone to serve you.”

“So?” Mo Xiao stared at her with an ambiguous smile.

An Rong thought he was interested in her words, so her smile deepened, “Big brother, Linlin and Xiangxiang have always admired and respected you. I was thinking, why not let one of them be adopted under your na so that there will be soone to look after you when you are old, what do you think?”

At her words, the cold aura around Mo Xiao intensified.

Unfortunately, An Rong, imrsed in her own world, was completely oblivious to it.

Ning Feng and Xing Sen exchanged a glance, mockery filtering through their eyes.

Well, her calculations were really obvious.

To serve him when he’s old?

Did she think they were lying to a three-year-old child?

Wasn’t she just circling around and coveting their master’s wealth through so many twists and turns?

“An Rong, you should ask Grandpa about this kind of thing.” Mo Xiao’s eyes turned cold as he spoke with an indifferent tone.

Ever since the incident years ago, Mo Xiao had always addressed them by their full nas.

At the corner of An Rong’s smile froze and her voice weakened, “…big brother, I didn’t an anything else, if you don’t like it, forget it.”

The last ti she ntioned this incident in front of the Grand Papa, she was almost driven out of the mansion. She didn’t dare to make trouble for herself again.

Mo Xiao glanced at her and ignored her.

Just then, An Zhonghui and others ca out of the dining room one after another and felt the atmosphere was a bit strange when they entered the living room.

“Second Sister-in-law, where is the Second Brother?” Seeing Zhao Xuan and others, An Rong quickly changed the subject.

At her question, everyone realized that they hadn’t seen An Chong this morning.

Zhao Xuan’s eyes flickered and she smiled faintly, “Achong has had so things to take care of recently, he left early in the morning.”

“How co Grandpa has returned?”

An Yu looked up to see the people approaching from the door, his voice held a hint of surprise.

At his words, everyone turned to look at the entrance.

Ignoring the stunned expressions of others, Mo Xiao stood up and walked over.

He reached out to help the Grand Papa, slowing his stride.

“Why are you so eager to be discharged from the hospital?”

His low voice carried a hint of disapproval and concern.

Smiling at the corners of his eyes, the Grand Papa indifferently replied, “It’s nothing serious, anyway, the mansion has a family doctor.”

The voices of the two were audible but not loud, which woke up everyone else in the living room.

“Dad, why didn’t you rest well in the hospital, why did you rush out?” An Zhonghui asked with concern.

The Grand Papa sat down on the sofa and his smile faded, unlike the earlier gentleness towards Mo Xiao, “I was bored in the hospital, so I thought it would be better to return to the mansion.”

Seeing this, An Zhonghui didn’t say any more. Looking at the ti, he asked the driver to prepare the car to go out.

“Dad, you rest well. I’ve got so etings later, I’ll go first.”

The Grand Papa gestured, he had co back not specifically to see them.

Once he was gone, it would be quiet.

Once he had left, An Yun also left for work.
