"Auntie, Xiao Yue." Mo Xiaorui said happily as she pulled Tang Yue along, seemingly with endless things to talk about.
Luo Wen called out to his aunt and greeted Tang Yue, then rested on the side holding Luo Mingxuan.
Mo Xiaolin quietly took Luo Mingxuan from him. Being only a few months old, the baby was still oblivious to the world, giggling and babbling away, with his big, clear eyes constantly darting around.
When Tang Yue saw Luo Mingxuan, she couldn’t help but praise him, "Xiao Rui, Mingxuan really has inherited all the good traits from his parents. In the future, who knows how many young girls’ hearts he will charm."
"Xiao Yue, you say he might charm others, but no one is as incredible as Si Yu". Mo Xiaorui recalled how those girls used to sneakily inquire about Mo Siyu’s news, and how she often received love letters asking her to pass them on to him.
"Xiao Yue, don’t take it the wrong way, but Si Yu keeps other won at bay—not within three steps, no, not even within five steps. He always has a cold expression, almost like everyone owes him money." This was sothing Mo Xiaorui had deeply experienced.
"Exactly." Mo Xiaolin chid in, "Back then Si Yu had worried to death. Boys his age were already fathers, but Si Yu, he didn’t even have the shadow of a girl by his side."
"Xiao Yue, thankfully you appeared, otherwise during New Year’s, your aunt here would have been so anxious." Mo Xiaorui said with a playful smile.
Suddenly, Mo Xiaorui said, "Xiao Yue, in terms of family hierarchy, I should call you cousin-in-law. From now on, just call Xiao Rui, no need to add ’sister’."
"Okay." Tang Yue didn’t refuse; after all, Mo Siyu was indeed older than Mo Xiaorui.
"Wow." Mo Xiaorui exclaid, not at all like soone who had just beco a mother. She said, "Auntie, Xiao Yue, I ca over today to tell you so good news. Sister Xiaoyu will arrive in town tonight. Uncle has specifically sent to tell you, and invited you to join us for dinner as well."
"Xiao Yue is here too, so let’s all have dinner together tonight." Mo Xiaorui warmly invited her.
"Sister Xiaoyu is coming back?" Mo Xiaolin thought of Mo Xiaoyu, whom she hadn’t seen for a long ti and asked, "Xiao Yue, when you went to Sea City last ti, you must have seen Xiaoyu, right?"
"I saw her, Sister Xiaoyu is very beautiful." Tang Yue responded, quietly pondering to herself that Sister Xiaoyu’s return this ti might make it impossible to keep her divorce a secret.
That evening, Mo Xiaolin took Tang Yue with her for the dinner.
The eldest brother Mo Xiaofeng had also moved to the town. His son Mo Weidong and Tang Jun, attending the sa school, were almost inseparable from Tang Jun, and would also hang out with Zhang Qiang and Wei Jiajie, training with Zhu Yuanchao after school breaks.
Mo Xiaofeng’s ho near the school was not new, but it had a courtyard and was kept very clean and spacious.
When Tang Yue and Mo Xiaolin arrived, both uncles and aunts were very enthusiastic.
Tang Yue brought plenty of gifts with her, and although Zheng Chunhong verbally insisted she needn’t have brought anything, deep down she was pleased. It proved Tang Yue valued the Mo Family, and by extension, valued Si Yu.
Tang Yue had now recognized all mbers of the Mo Family. She was well acquainted with the two uncles, Mo Weidong and Mo Xiaorui, and knew everyone else except for the young Mo Xiaoyao.
Tang Yue was beautiful and sweet-talking, plus she had once saved Mo Xiaorui, which made it easy for her to integrate into the large Mo Family.
The Mo Family was lively and harmonious.
Tang Yue wondered to herself, once Mo Xiaoyu returns and her divorce is revealed, would the Mo Family be turned upside down?
Having not seen her for half a year, she wondered how Sister Xiaoyu was faring in Sea City. After a couple of phone calls, it seed that the business was doing well, and from Sister Xiaoyu’s voice, it seed that she was living well even after her divorce.
Ti passed bit by bit, and by four in the afternoon, Mo Xiaoyu returned ho.
Mo Xiaoyu brought Xie Tiantian with her. Compared to the last ti, Xie Tiantian had grown quite a bit taller. Her face still carried baby fat, and her large round eyes were especially clear.
Xie Tiantian looked around with her beautiful eyes and, upon seeing Tang Yue, she rushed up and exclaid, "Pretty, auntie!"
"Tiantian, you still rember ?" Tang Yue was extraordinarily surprised and embraced Xie Tiantian, affectionately holding her close.
"I rember." Xie Tiantian nodded. During the ti Tang Yue lived in Sea City, Xie Tiantian almost spent every day with her. Later on, Tang Yue also sent clothes to Xie Tiantian several tis, which made Xie Tiantian keep this pretty aunt in her heart.
"Tiantian, you only rember your aunt and not your grandmother?" Seeing how close Xie Tiantian was to Tang Yue, Zheng Chunhong’s heart grew even fonder of her daughter-in-law, Mo Xiaoyu. Zheng Chunhong hadn’t seen her little granddaughter for a long ti and naturally missed her terribly.
Xie Tiantian sweetly called out, "Grandma."
"Ah." Zheng Chunhong hugged Xie Tiantian and asked, "Where’s Xie Quan? Why didn’t he co back with you? You’re carrying so much stuff; how could he be at ease letting you travel with the child alone?"
Zheng Chunhong was complaining about Xie Quan.
Mo Xiaoyu smiled awkwardly and said, "He didn’t co back."
Mo Xiaofeng also missed his little granddaughter and took Xie Tiantian from Zheng Chunhong’s arms. The Mo Family mbers all took turns speaking with Xie Tiantian.
Zheng Chunhong vaguely noticed that sothing was off with Mo Xiaoyu and took the opportunity while putting away the luggage to ask, "Xiaoyu, did you have a fight with Xie Quan? Did he mistreat you?"
"Mom." As soon as Mo Xiaoyu opened her mouth, her voice choked with emotion.
Zheng Chunhong’s heart skipped a beat. She pulled Mo Xiaoyu to sit down and asked, "Xiaoyu, don’t cry. If he dares to mistreat you, our Mo Family won’t stand for it. Just tell what happened."
Mo Xiaoyu hung her head low and after a long mont, she lifted her tear-stained face and said, "Mom, we got divorced."
"What?" Zheng Chunhong was shocked as she looked at Mo Xiaoyu, feeling as if the sky was falling.
Although nowadays, a divorce wouldn’t lead to life-or-death drama, it was still a matter that sounded ill-reputed.
"Xiaofeng." Zheng Chunhong called out unconsciously.
"Chunhong, we’re about to eat, what are you doing staying in the room?" Mo Xiaofeng was walking towards the room, calling out as he did so.
"Xiaofeng, co here quickly." Zheng Chunhong shouted as she grabbed Mo Xiaofeng who had just entered the room, "Xiaofeng, your daughter is saying she got divorced, I didn’t hear wrong, did I?"
Zheng Chunhong always felt she must have misheard.
"What?" Mo Xiaofeng’s expression changed, "Is it that Xie Quan has beco ungrateful? Did he forget everything from the past now that he has money?"
"Mom and dad, calm down a bit." Mo Xiaoyu was sowhat afraid to face Mo Xiaofeng’s expression.
Outside the room, hearing the commotion, Mo Xiaolin and Deng Yuhua also ca in, asking what had happened.
