Chapter 645 Friends of Moo-moo


    "Jean, Zed, I will forever be in your debt for all the things you did for me. To be able to meet you guys,


    and be dear friends with you has been the biggest joy of my life," said Moore, smiling warmly as


    he looked intently at Zed and Jean.


    "I''ll stop with the lovey-dovey talk now. We''ve been friends for long enough for you guys to know what I


    meant to say." After hearing this, Jean said with a wide smile, "I believe you have something to say to


    Avery? It is such an important asion. She''s your girlfriend!"


    Jean reminded Moore amidst her warmugh.


    Realizing this, Moore stood still as if he forgot something of great importance to him. He slowly turned


    around and saw Avery. She was standing there, looking at him intently with pure and crystal eyes. He


    felt the tides ofplicated feelings for her rise and surge from the well of his heart. He walked


    towards her, and spoke softly and sincerely, "Thank you for staying with me tonight. I''m sorry for not


    being able to take good care of you."


    "You''re always wee, and I would like you to know that I''m not dependent on your care. Always


    remember, Moore. Etch this onto your heart and mind - I will always be with you," Avery promised this


    to Moore, her tone sweet and genuine. Her emphasis on every word was filled with as much love as


    she could convey through her eyes.


    "I will, Avery. I''ll keep it in my heart forever," said Moore, his voice lightly cracking. He was deeply


    touched. His eyes affixed on Avery conveying the sort of tenderness only a man could give.


    Bing increasingly aware of the passion in the atmosphere around Moore and Avery, Zed and Jean


    looked at each other, clearly moved by their love. They beamed at each other like little children.


    They were so happy for Moore and Avery, who were so in love judging from how they looked at each


    other.


    To give the two lovers the privacy they no doubt needed, Zed gently held Jean''s hands, and they


    silently walked out together.


    Closing the door as quietly as possible, Jean let out a sigh of relief, her face joyful. She then said,


    "Finally, after all the twists and turns, Moore returned to the Bai family. But are they any different from


    the Bai family Moore left in the past? What do you think Zed? Why did Edna do what she did? Why did


    she block Moore froming back after all her shady dealings?"


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Honestly, I can''t make sense of her logic behind it. Gary has never interfered with the Bai family''s


    business, but after all, he has power in politics. By that fact, this also opened a lot of doors for Edna, so


    she was able to keep a lot of things she did secret from Gary. Edna''s true purpose may lie somewhere


    else. But I really don''t know what it exactly is. Anyway, It''s the Bai family''s business. Stop letting it


    bother you too much."


    "How can I not?" Jean sighed as Zed finished his answer. "Moore just returned to the family, but now


    he has to deal with their big problem? I just get so worried how this will all end."


    Jean''s face was clouded with worry. Her brows were furrowed with concern. Seeing this, Zed was


    about to say something tofort her when he heard an old man say, "Are you Moo-moo''s friends?"


    ''Moo-moo? Is that Moore''s nickname in the Bai family?''


    Hearing the nickname of their dear friend, Zed and Jean shot each other questioning looks, before


    turning around at the same time to find out who could call Moore such an intimate name.


    Who greeted them was an old man with lines as deep as trenches on his face. He looked weary from


    all the years he was alive. He approached the couple slowly, and his back was hunched over.


    Without the old man introducing himslf, Zed and Jean immediately assumed that he must be Moore''s


    grandpa.


    Since Moo-moo, the lovely nickname, could onlye from someone who was really close to Moore.


    Then Jean remembered that this old man was the reason why Moore had to suffer all these years, why


    he had to carry all the burdens of life at such a young age. She became guarded, her face a mask of


    hostility. Just because Moore said that his grandpa was reaching the end of his life, didn''t mean Jean


    had to get all friendly with him.


    Olin, the old man, had reached the couple and was now standing in front of them. Having heard that


    how nice a person Zed was, Olin couldn''t help but show appreciation for him. He asked them again


    with a smile, "Are you Moo-moo''s friends, Mr. and Mrs. Qi?"


    Zed was about to answer as he opened his mouth, but Jean cut him off and threw a cold reply at the


    old man, "So what if we''re friends? Let me make this clear from the start. Even though Moore forgave


    you for all the shitty things you''ve done to him, as his friend, I will never, ever forgive you."


    "Jean!" Zed suddenly said in a hushed voice, startled by her reply''s disrespectful tone.


    "Don''t interrupt me. Moore had to step down because Olin is his grandpa. But he''s not my grandpa. I


    don''t have to show respect and hospitality towards him even if he''s a member of the Bai family. That''s


    how I''ve always been with friends. I will give back an ocean for a drop of water. But if anyone hurts me


    or my friends? I will stop at nothing to get my revenge, let alone forgive,"


    Jean said with cold fury, her eyes piercing Olin.


    "I know," Olin said while a bitter smile started to form on the corners of his mouth. He looked at Jean


    and said, "You are true friends of Moo-moo, being on his side no matter what and supporting him


    whole-heartedly. I heard from Gary that Moo-moo owed you folks a lot and had a lot of reasons to be


    thankful for you. I now see that you are also the reason why Moo-moo agreed to stay here."


    When he said this, it was followed by a deep sigh apanied with regret and remorse that was also


    evident in his weary eyes. "I had no choice back then. I had no other way but to send Moo-moo away. I


    have never stopped regretting it to this day. It was such a huge, sorrowful mistake. If only I could turn


    back time! I would have sacrificed myself to keep Moo-moo at home.


    I''m not expecting your forgiveness after hearing my words. I know in my heart, that my sins can never


    be forgiven, nor should they be epted. Please don''t worry. I promise to take good care of Moo-moo


    from now on. I will protect him from any possible suffering or problems, so long as I''m still alive..."


    "I don''t buy it," Jean scoffed. "You know very well why Moore chose to stay. Everyone in the Bai family


    are blood sucking mosquitos and blood thirsty vampires making use of everyone around them. You


    forced Moore to stay. You took advantage of his kindness!"


    "No. Listen to me, please," Olin fervently denied, and he shook is head slowly. His face was a mask of


    deep sorrow. "Ie to you with hopes that you will bring Moo-moo away from the Bai family..."


    "Wait, what are you talking about?" Jean was surprised by this. She looked at Olin suspiciously, trying


    to find a crack in his facade that might reveal his true purpose.


    "Here''s the story..." Olin sighed again, still feeling crushing sadness. "I have always been absent from


    home since my illness started. On an ordinary day like today, I should be in the hospital. But I heard


    Moore was returning home, hence I am here. Moo-moo is a good boy. After knowing the truth of his


    past, he never med me nor his father.


    But then soon after Moo-moo''s reunion with us, Gary somehow managed to separate me from them,


    and he talked long and hard with Moo-moo. I have more or less heard about the Bai family''s affairs


    even when I was wasting away at the hospital. I know for a fact that Gary has been conducting an


    investigation on Edna in secret for three months now. Although I don''t exactly know why he had her


    investigated, Gary must have told Moo-moo the reason.


    I heard you hade here too, so I saw my chance and now Ie before you. Please stop Moo-moo


    from getting involved in this trouble. He should avoid it at all costs and never be involved in it. The


    question is not about my selfishness. It''s just that we cannot afford to oppose Edna Huang''s family. The


    "I guess it''s safe to assume that you know Moore has already been an enemy to Edna, and that she


    has done everything in her power to stop Moore from getting back home," Jean said to remind Olin of


    this fact.


    "Yes, I know that." Olin was seized with incredible sadness. He then said, "You''re wee to me


    me for all this. I''m too much of a useless coward. If I hadn''t surrendered to other people''s threat twenty


    years ago, I wouldn''t have deprived my grandson of the chance toe back home..."


    Olin finished speaking, a stream of tears already flowing down from his weary eyes against his


    weathered face, like torrents of a gentle waterfall.
