Chapter 4: The overbearing patriarch fell in love with me (Part 3)
Mo Yitao came over when they were having breakfast.
After being mocked by Xiao Di yesterday, Chen Cuiwei is much more honest. At least the breakfast is normal, even a few light dishes were added to take care of his body (Mo Qi).
After Mo Yitao entered the door, all three people except He Yan were very surprised at the table. Especially Mo Lanyu, her mood went up and down because of this man yesterday. After returning her room, it was difficult to fall asleep in the middle of the night. Today, Mo Yitao suddenly came to visit, her heart was filled with a burst of joy — She just knew it, it's not that Mo Yitao had no feelings for her.
Mother once said to her, looking at the whole Mo family, only her looks and talents can match Mo Yitao.
Her eyes swept over the man's tall body and the handsome and sharp eyebrows. To conceal the excitement in her heart, she only revealed a bright smile to the man. However, Mo Yitao’s gaze only faintly swept over her and didn't linger.
Chen Cuiwei and Mo Tiangao have ghosts in their hearts*, Mo Yitao's appearance is far more shocking to them. While Mo Lanyu who is muddled* by love is more calm.
*ulterior motives/guilty conscience
*to be muddled in the brain (idiom); excited and unable to act rationally
Mo Tiangao, as the head of the family*, first got up and asked Mo Yitao to sit down after the surprise passed. "How did Mr. Mo have time to come over?" He spoke slowly and because of the smile on his face, the corners of his eyes stiffened and squeezed out a few wrinkles.
*He's the head of his own family branch.
Mo Yitao didn't bother with being roundabout since long ago, or it should be said that he doesn't have much patience when it came to this pair of husband and wife that gave off bad feelings. He faintly nodded and went straight to the point, "I came to pick up Mo Qi to return to the old house and stay for a while."
"What?" Mo Lanyu couldn't help but shout, she was swept away by heavy disappointment and grievance. Mo Qi, why is it Mo Qi again? That cousin of her's who is only skin and bone with a malnourished look, just which part of him can attract Mo Yitao's gaze more than her?
