Chapter 698: Take In
Mo Long pretended to be jealous and said, “It must be because she like you.”
Jiang Yu smiled and rubbed Mo Long’s hair. She asked, “What’s wrong? Are you jealous?”
Mo Long pretended to be angry and said, “Yeah, I’m angry.”
Jiang Yu was about to say something when she heard someone ring the doorbell.
Liu Hui asked in puzzlement, “What happened to the Mo family today? Why are there so many people here?”
!!
However, other than Mo Long and his group, Liu Hui and Mo Jiang couldn’t guess who else could have come at such a late hour.
Liu Hui opened the door and Mo Zhi, who was outside, saw her. She smiled awkwardly and said, “Sister-in-law.”
Tang Xue, who was beside her, also felt wronged and called out, “Aunt.”
Liu Hui was stunned. A moment later, she made a path to come out and said, “It’s cold outside. Come in quickly.”
Mo Zhi replied immediately and entered with Tang Xue.
When Tang Xue saw Jiang Yu, she wasn’t as noisy as before and didn’t say anything that was too excessive. Instead, she was unusually quiet.
She sat on the sofa and stayed far away from Mo Long and Jiang Yu.
When Elder Mo saw Mo Zhi, the expression on his face wasn’t any better.
Mo Zhi also knew Elder Mo’s att.i.tude towards her, so she tried her best not to talk to him. She only said a simple word, “Dad.”
Elder Mo ignored her.
Mo Zhi looked at Mo Jiang. She said embarra.s.sedly, “Brother, I might have to trouble you for the next few days. Tang Yi and I have quarreled, so we have nowhere to go now. I know it will be very troublesome for you, but I really have no other choice. I can only come and ask for your help.”
As she said this, she looked at Tang Xue, indicating for her to do something quickly.
Therefore, Tang Xue quickly squeezed out a few drops of tears and said, “Uncle, please take us in.”
Mo Jiang did not know why Mo Zhi would quarrel with Tang Yi, and he did not want to ask about other people’s family matters. However, she was his sister after all, and he really could not bear to leave her and her daughter outside on this day of celebration and family reunion.
Moreover, her daughter even called him “Uncle”.
Mo Jiang sighed and said, “Alright, you can stay here for now.”
Mo Zhi looked at him gratefully and then looked at Elder Mo…
Elder Mo said that he didn’t acknowledge her as his daughter, but blood was thicker than water. He couldn’t just abandon Mo Zhi like this.
However, he was also proud and didn’t want to leave Mo Zhi behind. He could only use Mo Jiang’s hand to let Mo Zhi stay in Mo Garden.
He didn’t look at Mo Zhi and only said, “You want to live in the Mo family, not the Mo Garden. Just ask your brother.”
Mo Zhi immediately shed tears and said, “Thank you, Father! Thank you, Brother!”
Tang Xue also tactfully said, “Thank you.”.
She didn’t look at Jiang Yu or Mo Long the entire time. She looked like a child who had just met a stranger, and Mo Long and Jiang Yu were two strangers to her.
Although she didn’t know why Tang Xue was so quiet, it was good. At least, it would be quieter during the New Year.
Liu Hui asked, “Have you eaten?”
Mo Zhi lowered her head and said, “Not yet.”
Liu Hui sighed as if she felt pity for Mo Zhi. She said, “I’ll go to the kitchen and cook a bowl of noodles for you. After eating, go upstairs and take a shower. After the celebration, you can rest.”
“Okay.” Mo Zhi quickly thanked her and brought Tang Xue upstairs to take a shower.
The two of them didn’t bring anything with them when they came. Not to mention changing their clothes, they didn’t even have pajamas to sleep in at night.
Liu Hui could only take out the two new pajamas she had bought recently and give them to Mo Zhi and Tang Xue.
She looked at the two sets of pajamas and couldn’t bear to say, “This is the mother-daughter outfit that I plan to wear with Xiao Yu.”
It was a pity that this was the first time she had taken it out. In the end, she was going to give it to someone else.
By the time Mo Zhi and Tang Xue finished showering, it was already 11:30 pm. There was still half an hour before the new year celebration ended.
The two of them sat in the living room for a while. When it was 12 pm, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Mo Long said to Jiang Yu, “Let’s go back too.”
Jiang Yu nodded and said, “Okay.”
At 12.30 pm, everyone had finished washing up and had gone to their rooms to rest.
Jiang Yu woke up groggily at some unknown time and felt that her throat was very dry.
She lay awake for a while before getting out of bed and preparing to go to the living room to pour some water.
Mo Long was a light sleeper. When he felt that there was nothing around him, he immediately opened his eyes.
“Where are you going?” He asked.
