Chapter 2: Sweetie
Translator: Lonelytree
There were 2 n standing and 1 man sitting on the couch. They were fine specins of their species.
Mo Yun, the eldest son of the Mo family, wore a black suit with a pair of slacks. He had that naughty and dangerous allure to him. His handso face was now carved in seriousness.
The second son was dressed in a straight suit with gold-rimd glasses. He looked like the quintessential business elite. But gloom was also written all over his face.
The two sons would not normally speak so loudly to their mother, but there was a good reason for it this ti.
How could their favorite sister do such a terrible thing?
Where did she get the courage to hit soone with a car?
The man sitting on the sofa sighed faintly, and his face was drawn.
Mo Yi, the father of the Mo siblings, thought about his son who had just been given a sedative at the hospital. He hoped that his third son would calm down further when he woke up. When Mo Yi visited his son at the hospital earlier, his son shouted at him, “All you care about is Mo Li, what about ? Am I chopped liver?”
Those words really made his heart feel like it was being stabbed by a knife.
Mo Yi was already over 50 years old, but he paid attention to his health on a daily basis. Traces of age could barely be seen on his face, he exuded the charm of a mature man.
“Have you forgotten the love you have for her? When you guys grew up together, you cherished and pampered her. You hugged her every day, and every ti she cried, only you could coax her to stop. Do you rember how happy you were when she called you Big Brother for the first ti?” Mo Yi’s mother held onto his eldest son’s shirt tightly. Her face was colored with pain as she pleaded desperately. After this accident happened, she had cried her tears dry. She never thought her daughter would turn out like this!
Mo Yi’s jaw could not help but twitch. The usually swift and decisive business tycoon did not know what to say in that mont.
“I rember! How could I forget?! It is because she is the only girl in the family, that all of us spoiled and pampered her! It is because we have given her too much leeway that she turns out like this. I could have tolerated her usual temper tantrums and unreasonable demands, but she has gone too far this ti! All you care about is her, what about Lil’ Three? Do you even care about him? He’s the actual victim in this accident! As you know Lil’ Three pays special importance to his appearance, this accident has shattered his leg bone. The doctor says he has to live with uneven leg length. How do you expect him to live like this? Do you know how traumatizing this will be for him? Do you even care about him or Mo Li is the only one in your mind?”
“How could you accuse of that? Of course I care about Zheng ‘Er, I have carried him for 10 months as well! But Mo Li is just a girl... She can’t look after herself like you boys do. So I took extra care of her and pampered her... I know she has crossed the line this ti but as a mother, I can’t sit idly and allow my daughter to be sent to a ntal hospital when there is nothing wrong with her ntally. At most she has so temper issues, but that doesn’t warrant being locked up in a ntal hospital!”
Mo Yi looked at his devastated wife and he wanted to reach out to comfort her. But at this mont, he felt entirely powerless. His words might even make the situation worse. In the end, his arm lingered in the air before he put it down again.
Lil’ Two glanced at his mother and said with a heavy heart, “Big brother didn’t say that we have to commit her to a ntal hospital...”
“But I did and you agreed, don’t you forget about that!”Mo Yun glared at his second brother and said, “There is no way we’re letting her off easy this ti! Apologize to Lil’ Three and make sure that Mo Li is disciplined. Otherwise, she’ll be getting a one-way ticket to the asylum!”
“Okay, okay... Yun ‘Er, I understand, don’t worry... I’ll give her a stern talking to this ti.” Mother Mo looked at her eldest son and her son’s cold deanor was like a spear piercing through her heart. She changed the subject to try to appease her son, “Yun ‘Er, you’ve just returned from overseas. I’ll get Aunt Qiu to cook sothing delicious for you...”
“That won’t be necessary, I’ll be going to the hospital. At least soone from the family needs to be there when Lil’ Three wakes up.”
“What about you, Lil’ Two?” Mother Mo turned to her second son as if asking for help.
“I’m going back to the company. I have sothing important to deal with. I’ll leave with Big Brother.”
Sensing the awkwardness forming in the air, Mo Yi finally said, “Yun ‘Er, you should go to the hospital and look after Zheng ‘Er. Your mother and I will go and join you in a bit.”
Before he even finished, his two sons already left. Mo Yi let out a helpless sigh. How did a perfectly fine family end up in a state like this?
In her room, Mo Li got out of bed, thinking about how to make up for the ss the character, Mo Li had made. As she turned to walk down the stairs, she t her mother’s eyes.
Standing there, Mo Li seed to see many emotions in her mother’s eyes, but the most conspicuous of them was helplessness.
Mo Yi walked over to hug his wife, he was at a loss on how to comfort her.
“This is all my fault. I doted on Li Li too much... That’s why she has beco like this.”
As a veteran in the business world, Mo Yi had always thought that he had a glib tongue. There was no situation he could not talk himself out of, but at that mont, holding his wife, he was tongue-tied. In fact, his eyes reddened alongside hers.
“The fault is not yours alone, I have to take responsibility too. Fortunately, Li Li is still young. It’s not too late to educate her. Li Li is not a bad person, she’s still our Sweetie, isn’t she?”
The couple had to admit that among their four children, they cherished their youngest daughter the most, because she was the only girl and she was the youngest.
But that didn’t an that they don’t love their three sons.
