    ¡°Boss, it¡¯s settled over there.¡± The person on the other end of the line paused for a moment before saying, ¡°Do you want to get rid of the root of the problem and eliminate all future troubles?¡±


    Chi Xiao leaned back on the bench and raised her head to look at the sun. The dazzling sunlight shone on her body, and her sparkling white skin seemed to be glowing.


    ¡°Forget it. Let¡¯s not burn our bridges,¡± Chi Xiao replied lazily.


    The person on the other end seemed to have expected this and no longer bothered with the question. He continued, ¡°Oh right, boss, we have some business to do. The heir of the Mo family is seriously ill and about to die. The Mo family has offered thirty million dollars for you to save him.¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s expression was indifferent. ¡°Oh, I¡¯m not interested. Just reject it.¡±


    The afternoon sun was exceptionally warm. As her skin basked under it, there was an additional burning sensation. It was just like the fire that burned everything up four years ago.


    Chi Xiao turned her head slightly. One could see the uneven scars on Chi Xiao¡¯s face at a glance. Her originally beautiful face was actually as terrifying as a baleful ghost.


    It was almost time.


    Chi Xiao thought, it¡¯s time to find the child that was lost in the fire four years ago. What would they look like now?


    As she thought about this, Chi Xiao was actually lost in thought until a stout and fat figure stood in front of her.


    ¡°Chi Xiao, someone is looking for you.¡± Aunt Zhang¡¯s face was full of ridicule. ¡°Look presentable. There are still people willing to visit you even with your appearance. You have to be grateful to them.¡±


    Aunt Zhang did not have a good impression of this woman who should be called ¡°Miss.¡± She was an illegitimate daughter with a disfigured face, but she was still so arrogant. It was really ridiculous.


    As Aunt Zhang¡¯s voice fell, a sharp female voice came from behind. ¡°Yo, the scenery here is not bad. My daughter should have peace of mind here.¡±


    The surroundings were dilapidated and overgrown with weeds. Even if the environment was not good, it could be at least noted for the greenery.


    Chi Xiao was still sunbathing with her eyes closed. She did not even spare a glance at the woman.


    The woman who was ignored was furious and her voice became even sharper. ¡°Chi Xiao, don¡¯t be so shameless. Do you not know what kind of lowly status you have?¡±


    It was too noisy.


    Chi Xiao frowned and turned her head. She opened her clear eyes and stared coldly at the woman.


    The woman was immediately shocked and took two steps back. She gulped. It was difficult for her to speak and her words were swallowed.


    Aunt Zhang quickly held the woman. ¡°Madam, are you alright?¡±


    Being held by Aunt Zhang, Qi Yun was still a little scared. Although she knew that Chi Xiao had been disfigured and had mentally prepared herself, the Chi Xiao now was much scarier now than four years ago.


    The crisscrossing scars and layers of scabs were disgusting to look at.


    With lingering fear, Qi Yun felt extremely happy. This was how it should be, this was how it should be!


    That slut deserved to live like this. Qi Yun was even somewhat thankful to herself for not managing to kill her back then.


    She was happy, and her fear disappeared. Qi Yun stood over Chi Xiao¡¯s head and said condescendingly, ¡°You should be prepared. The Mo family¡¯s eldest young master is going to marry you soon.¡±


    Seeing that Chi Xiao had no reaction, Qi Yun continued, ¡°The eldest young master of the Mo family is seriously ill and doesn¡¯t have much time left. You won¡¯t have to endure for long before you can inherit the Mo family¡¯s inheritance. Tell me, don¡¯t you think I¡¯m thinking of you? This marriage is such a good thing.¡±


    Chi Xiao raised her eyes and looked coldly at Qi Yun, making Qi Yun feel as if she was being targeted by a ferocious beast. Just before Qi Yun¡¯s legs went weak, Chi Xiao suddenly stopped. There was a moment of joy, but when Qi Yun wanted to take a closer look, she realized that Chi Xiao had stopped moving again. She had only moved her pair of eyes, which had a strong sense of oppression.


    Qi Yun wanted to say something else, but she heard Chi Xiao¡¯s clear and cold voice say, ¡°Okay.¡±


    The threatening words that Qi Yun had just prepared were once again suppressed in her throat, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.


    In order not to lose face, Qi Yun could only force herself to say, ¡°As long as you understand.¡±


    Chi Xiao lowered her eyes and no longer looked at Qi Yun. Her appearance was docile and obedient.


    Seeing this, Qi Yun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She had indeed seen wrongly. How could a good-for-nothing have such a look? This slut was just like her mother. She was weak, incompetent, and cowardly.


    After settling on the candidate for marriage, Qi Yun brought Chi Xiao back to the Chi family. She casually arranged a storeroom for Chi Xiao to stay in. She even said nicely, ¡°There are no more empty rooms at home. I can only let you suffer for a while.¡±


    Her words sounded nice, but the expression on her face could not hide the disdain and disgust.


    Chi Xiao did not object. She walked to the room and climbed onto the windowsill to stare blankly outside.


    She did not hang up just now. The person on the other end said that they had found it.


    They had found her child. The child was in the Mo family!


    Chi Ying took a quick glance and saw Chi Xiao¡¯s face. She almost tripped over her left foot and fell on the ground. Now that she saw Qi Yun coming over, she quickly went forward and asked, ¡°Mom, is this really okay? Chi Xiao is going to marry in my place. Will the Mo family really not mind?¡±


    Qi Yun smiled calmly. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. That little brat from the Mo family is about to die too. He can¡¯t blame us.¡±


    Chi Ying, who was relieved, pouted slightly and revealed a displeased expression. ¡°Mom, do you know what age we are in? Why is such a big family still superstitious? What¡¯s with organising a happy event for getting rid of evil spirits from the ill?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t there no other way?¡± Qi Yun patted Chi Ying¡¯s hand, ¡°The little brat¡¯s illness is something that all the hospitals in the capital can¡¯t do anything about. If we can get rid of the evil spirits, we might still be able to save him. Unfortunately, the Mo family has looked for Gui Jianchou more than a dozen times, but they still haven¡¯t found them.¡±


    Chi Ying was even more relieved. She curled her lips and said, ¡°The two of them, one a medicine jar and the other an ugly monster, are a good match. When the time comes, neither should despise the other.¡±


    The two of them spoke in a loud voice. They weren¡¯t afraid of Chi Xiao hearing them.


    Chi Xiao sneered after listening to them. The storeroom was too small and there was no mirror. She looked at her face carefully through the reflection of the window. There were layers of scars on her face. Chi Xiao gently stroked her face and then tore off a layer of skin.


    Just like in ancient disguise techniques, she tore off a layer of skin.


    Her true appearance was revealed underneath.


    Her skin was fair and flawless, sparkling and translucent. Her face could be described as a peerless beauty, extremely beautiful and aggressive.


    Four years ago, her mother died unexpectedly. Qi Yun was brought back to become Mrs. Chi. After taking up the position, Qi Yun was afraid that Chi Xiao would affect the positions of her and her daughter, so she set a huge fire with the intention of burning Chi Xiao to death.


    Unfortunately, she was lucky. The fire did not take her life, but it took away her child.


    At that time, her child was only the size of a ball, and it disappeared in front of her.


    She had cried and made a fuss, but in the end, she was sent to the countryside and left to fend for herself.


    Fortunately, she refused to give up. She picked up her old connections and found medical books left by the ancestor of the Chi family in the ancestral hall in the countryside. Not only did she heal herself, but she also made a name for herself.


    Chi Xiao looked at her beautiful face and enunciated each word clearly, ¡°I will make you pay!¡±

    The next morning, the Mo family¡¯s car stopped at the entrance of the Chi family¡¯s villa.


    Because of superstition, the Mo family and the Chi family chose to keep a low profile.


    Chi Ying looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s seductive and graceful figure and then lowered her head to look at her dried up body. A trace of jealousy flashed across her eyes. However, when she saw Chi Xiao¡¯s scarred face, her heart instantly calmed down.


    She smiled and said, ¡°Sister, you¡¯re going to marry into the Mo family soon in my place. This is a good marriage. It¡¯s rare that there¡¯s still someone willing to marry you even with such a face.¡±


    Seeing that Chi Xiao did not say anything, Chi Ying¡¯s sense of superiority became even stronger. ¡°You have to thank me properly. After all, without me, how could you have obtained such a good marriage?¡±


    Chi Xiao glanced at Chi Ying from the corner of her eyes and suddenly smiled. ¡°That¡¯s right. This marriage is indeed fortunate. The Mo family is the richest family in the capital. Even with ten Chi families combined, they would not be able to compare to the Mo family. I have to thank you for giving in.¡±


    Chi Ying¡¯s expression froze and her hands were tightly clenched. What did this slut mean?


    She had clearly given it to her because she didn¡¯t want it anymore. Why did Chi Xiao look like she had taken advantage of her?


    Looking at Chi Xiao¡¯s smug expression, Chi Ying wished she could scratch her face.


    After enduring it for a while, Chi Ying finally said, ¡°Since you like that sickly Mo Ting so much, then let¡¯s hurry up. Otherwise, if we¡¯re late, Mo Ting will have already died.¡±


    After saying this, Chi Ying received Qi Yun¡¯s warning gaze. Qi Yun leaned close to Chi Ying¡¯s ear and warned her in a low voice, ¡°Control yourself later. Do you still want your life? If the Mo family hears you say this¡­¡±


    Chi Ying then realized that she had actually been duped by the slut Chi Xiao the entire time. She glared hatefully at Chi Xiao, only to see Chi Xiao swagger out and open the door. Her gaze was calm as she looked at the Mo family members waiting outside to receive her.


    Sitting in the Mo family¡¯s car, Chi Xiao thought back to what the mother and daughter had said.


    She felt that it was extremely laughable.


    Was Mo Ting ill? She wasn¡¯t afraid. She wanted to take a look first. With her medical skills, there were very few illnesses that she couldn¡¯t cure. Even if she couldn¡¯t cure them, it didn¡¯t matter. She could still help Mo Ting hold on to life. When the time came, she would find her child and immediately escape.


    When the time came, if the Mo family wanted to find someone to take responsibility, who could they find?


    The Chi family, of course.


    When the time came, even the hypocritical scum of the Chi family wouldn¡¯t be able to get away with it.


    The car drove quickly. In less than half an hour, Chi Xiao arrived at the entrance of the Mo family¡¯s old residence.


    The driver and the bodyguards who escorted Chi Xiao maintained a business-like manner. Their faces were cold and indifferent. Even if Chi Xiao looked at them, they would immediately avoid her gaze, making Chi Xiao look like a ferocious beast.


    The servant who opened the door had a smile on his face. However, the moment he raised his head and saw Chi Xiao¡¯s face, his expression suddenly turned into fear.


    Then, he stood fixed at the door and pointed at Chi Xiao, unable to speak.


    ¡°Aunt Zhao, what¡¯s going on?¡± The middle-aged man¡¯s voice rang out.


    Fortunately, the middle-aged man, as the butler of the Mo family, had seen a lot of storms over the years. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He immediately opened the door and said, ¡°Come in.¡±


    However, his tone was slightly cold.


    The butler had watched Mo Ting grow up. Naturally, there were thousands of people who looked down on the ugly and timid Chi Xiao. However, the Chi family was, after all, the only one in the capital who was willing to marry their daughter for the superstition.


    It was not his place to dislike her.


    With this thought in mind, the butler led Chi Xiao to Mo Ting¡¯s room. ¡°The young master fell ill again last night. He hasn¡¯t woken up yet. The doctor has been here for a long time. I hope it really works and you can help the eldest young master hold on to life.¡±


    ¡°We ought to look for Gui Jianchou¡­¡±


    The Butler lowered his voice as if he was not sure himself.


    This was because even though Gui Jianchou had superb medical skills, he was temperamental and unpredictable. No one knew what he liked. Even his appearance was a mystery.


    Mo Ting¡¯s room was completely surrounded. A group of people were making a racket. Those who did not know would have thought that this was a farmers market.


    A moment later, Mo Ting¡¯s room door was opened. The doctor looked exhausted. ¡°Although the situation is stable this time and the young master is still holding on to life, if we can¡¯t find Gui Jianchou, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯ll be too late.¡±


    At this moment, Chi Xiao was brought over by the butler. The first person to see Chi Xiao was the doctor who treated Mo Ting. He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, causing everyone to look in the direction of his gaze.


    After seeing Chi Xiao¡¯s face, the crowd let out a cry of surprise mixed with the words ¡°So ugly.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Chi Xiao was helpless. Was it necessary?


    Elder Mo was also stunned when he saw Chi Xiao¡¯s face. He couldn¡¯t help but suspect why the eldest daughter of the Chi family had such an appearance?


    Mo Ting¡¯s father, Mo Jun, looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s face and listened to the discussions around him. He couldn¡¯t help but slap his thigh. ¡°Father, this won¡¯t do. Do you have the heart to let young Ting marry such an ugly¡­ woman?¡±


    In the end, he still had some dignity. The word ¡®ugly¡¯ was swallowed up after only making half a sound.


    Elder Mo wasn¡¯t satisfied either. However, things had already come to this. Among all the socialites in the capital, only the Chi family was willing to marry their own to young Ting.


    After thinking about it, he waved his hand and said in a heavy voice, ¡°Can you find another partner?¡±


    Mo Jun shut his mouth and couldn¡¯t say anything.


    Elder Mo waved at Chi Xiao. Although his tone was not friendly, there was no disdain in it. ¡°Come and see young Ting. He will be your husband from now on.¡±


    Chi Xiao walked in and saw a cold and tall man lying on the sickbed with a pale face.


    Since he had not been sick for long, the man¡¯s figure was well maintained. There were still muscles on his arms and his figure was not considered thin.


    However, his face was a little too pale, and his lips were so pale that there was no color in them.


    However, even this could not conceal the man¡¯s handsomeness. His facial features were just right, and unknowingly, only one thought remained in Chi Xiao¡¯s mind. ¡°This face is really not bad.¡±


    Just as Chi Xiao was staring fixedly at Mo Ting, Mo Ting¡¯s eyes suddenly opened.


    That pair of pitch-black eyes stared at Chi Xiao. A moment later, a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.


    However, it wasn¡¯t disdain for Chi Xiao¡¯s ugly appearance. Instead, it was as if¡­ he had seen someone who shouldn¡¯t exist.


    Being stared at like this, Chi Xiao felt somewhat embarrassed for the first time in her life. She turned around and was about to leave when she heard Mo Ting¡¯s slightly hoarse voice. ¡°Who are you?¡±


    Mo Ting had woken up!


    Everyone present had this understanding. When they turned their heads to look at Chi Xiao again, they began to size her up.


    Mo Ting didn¡¯t wake up earlier, yet did when Chi Xiao was around.. What did this mean?

 Chapter 3

    Elder Mo looked at Chi Xiao, who was obviously stunned on the spot, with a complicated expression. After a moment, he suddenly laughed out loud, ¡°Forget it, forget it. It was determined by heavens. Since it¡¯s a fate between you two, we old folks won¡¯t get involved.¡±


    After saying that, he asked his assistant, who had followed him all his life, to help him up to go back. He walked out without stopping to listen to Mo Ting¡¯s mother¡¯s screaming.


    She felt that she had lost face, but she could not blame Elder Mo. Qi Yun could only blame it all on that ugly freak who had just entered the house.


    Seeing that ugly freak standing there in a daze, Qi Yun¡¯s anger immediately rose. She angrily rebuked, ¡°What are you looking at? Can¡¯t you see that Elder Mo has already left?¡±


    Chi Xiao felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of her, who she should call her mother-in-law.


    The elder had left. What did this have to do with her? Why did she vent her anger on her?


    Chi Xiao¡¯s clear gaze made Qi Yun feel uneasy. It was as if she was making trouble for no reason. Just as she was about to flare up, she felt a sinister gaze looking at her. She turned her head and saw that although his son¡¯s face was pale and extremely frail, he was looking at her with a disapproving gaze.


    Qi Yun was startled. That¡¯s right, she could not flare up now. If she treated Chi Xiao coldly now, it would only bring shame to her family.


    Qi Yun fiercely glared at Chi Xiao before turning her head to sit by Mo Ting¡¯s bed. She looked at Mo Ting with teary eyes.


    At this moment, Mo Ting was extremely weak and could not even speak. He could only place his gaze on Chi Xiao.


    Qi Yun loved her child very much. Although she didn¡¯t like Chi Xiao, she still said, ¡°Why are you still standing there? Didn¡¯t you see that my son called you over?¡±


    Chi Xiao slowly walked over and stopped a few steps away from Mo Ting.


    Mo Ting lay on the bed and raised his eyes to look at her.


    It was very strange.


    He clearly had no memory of her, but Mo Ting felt that this woman looked very familiar to him.


    The more he carefully traced the woman¡¯s features, the more familiar Mo Ting became. He really did not know what kind of poison was flowing inside him.


    Seeing how Mo Ting seemed to be paying close attention to this woman, Qi Yun¡¯s heart was extremely tired.


    In the past, so many ladies from prestigious families had come to pursue Mo Ting, but he did not even look at them. If a lady from a prestigious family was not good enough, then celebrities in the entertainment industry were also good. However, no matter what kind of people came to pursue him, Mo Ting would only give them the cold should and would never make people think more of it.


    There were even some women who thought they were smart and stripped naked on Mo Ting¡¯s bed. However, Mo Ting was able to do something like throwing people out of his room.


    This was to the extent that Qi Yun sometimes even suspected that Mo Ting might be interested in a different type of partner.


    This was the case until four years ago, when Mo Ting brought back a baby.


    The baby was only about three to four months old. Its face had strips of black and white, and it didn¡¯t have the tenderness that a baby should have.


    Although the baby was not good-looking, Qi Yun was relieved. It was actually¡­ not a bad thing that her son was fooling around outside.


    ¡°Ahem, since Ting has woken up, we will take our leave first.¡± The other members of the Mo family said their goodbyes.


    Only Mo Ting¡¯s second uncle¡¯s family remained. They looked at Mo Ting, who was lying on the bed with his illness. The corner of the second uncle¡¯s lips curled into an inexplicable smile. ¡°Sister-in-law, Ting has made it through this time. We don¡¯t know if he will make it next time. You should be prepared.¡±


    After saying that, he turned his eyes to Mo Jun. He said amiably, ¡°Big Brother, you know that we are connected by blood and flesh. I¡¯m also sincerely doing this for your good. You¡¯d better let go of the rights. Otherwise, I¡¯m really afraid that if young Ting can¡¯t be saved, the Mo family will suffer greatly.¡±


    Mo Jun still wanted to force a smile and send his younger brother away peacefully. Unexpectedly, Qi Yun suddenly became angry. She screamed in shock, chased him away and scolded him angrily.


    However, his character was still high. He couldn¡¯t even say anything new when he scolded someone.


    After chasing second uncle away, Qi Yun turned around and pointed at Mo Jun¡¯s nose and scolded, ¡°You¡¯re a good-for-nothing. You can only teach your own family a lesson. Your younger brother has already shit on your head, so why aren¡¯t you saying anything?¡±


    Mo Jun frowned and waved his hand impatiently. ¡°What are you talking about? What shit? Is this your character?¡±


    It was probably because he knew that he was in the wrong and was afraid that Qi Yun would make a scene again, that Mo Jun turned around and left with a cold expression.


    Chi Xiao, who had watched a free show in the house, had yet to put down the smile on her face and she shivered when she met Mo Ting¡¯s clear eyes.


    This man¡¯s eyes were good-looking, but they were also really aggressive.


    Chi Xiao even felt that under this man¡¯s gaze, she had nowhere to hide in her disguise.


    Frowning, Chi Xiao took a step back uncomfortably. No one liked this kind of gaze that could see through them.


    Not long after, Mo Ting started coughing. The heart-wrenching cough made Chi Xiao¡¯s heart tremble.


    Qi Yun stood to the side, but she could do nothing. She could only be anxious, and her eyes instantly turned red.


    After all, since Chi Xiao was a benevolent doctor, she picked up Mo Ting¡¯s left hand and massaged at some acupoints. From time to time, she would pinch other parts of Mo Ting. Only then did Mo Ting¡¯s coughing slowly stop..

 Chapter 4

    The moment Chi Xiao touched Mo Ting, Su Ling wanted to chase her away. However, when she saw that Chi Xiao was skilled and Mo Ting really stopped coughing, Su Ling heaved a sigh of relief.


    After heaving a sigh of relief, she felt that her attitude earlier was a little too harsh.


    With this thought in mind, Su Ling¡¯s face became slightly hot. She forced a smile and asked, ¡°Have you studied medicine before? How do you know that this can stop coughing?¡±


    Chi Xiao focused on massaging Mo Ting and replied without raising her head, ¡°When I was at home, I read a few medical books, but my knowledge is just on the surface level.¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s face looked a little better and was not as pale as before.


    Su Ling felt that this was not just surface level knowledge. It was just that Chi Xiao was too modest. Even the way she looked at Chi Xiao became a little more friendly.


    She no longer cared about Chi Xiao¡¯s face. As long as Chi Xiao could treat Mo Ting well and help alleviate his pain, Chi Xiao would be Su Ling¡¯s good daughter-in-law.


    Probably due to her occupational habits, Chi Xiao could not help but ask when she saw that Su Ling¡¯s expression had become better, ¡°How long have you been ill?¡±


    Hearing this, Su Ling¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Her son was actually unwilling to bring this up. Would Chi Xiao being so straightforward make her son unhappy?


    However, Mo Ting only thought for a moment before replying, ¡°Around two months.¡±


    Chi Xiao habitually rolled Mo Ting¡¯s eyelids. The inner part of his eyelids was pale and devoid of blood. ¡°How does this look like a result of being ill for two months? It¡¯s clearly been more than half a year.¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s eyes suddenly widened. Chi Xiao was right.


    His early symptoms were an occasional headache accompanied by severe insomnia. Mo Ting had indeed suffered from headaches and insomnia for nearly four months before he was admitted to the hospital for the first time.


    Chi Xiao took Mo Ting¡¯s pulse and sighed inwardly. Just what kind of person had the heir of the Mo family provoked for them to put in so much effort to poison him year after year?


    Perhaps it was because the medical books of her ancestors were magical, Chi Xiao only needed to take his pulse to know what illness this person had, how he got it, and how long he had been ill.


    It could not be said that it was not magical.


    Chi Xiao originally wanted to diagnose further, but Su Ling grabbed her hand. Her hand was cold and sweaty. Chi Xiao looked over and saw Su Ling¡¯s eyes filled with worry. ¡°How is Ting? Is he going to be saved?¡±


    Chi Xiao originally wanted to say that he would not, but when she saw the genuine worry in Su Ling¡¯s eyes, she suddenly recalled how her mother had looked at her with reluctance before she passed away.


    At that moment, the two of them gradually merged together.


    Chi Xiao paused and only said, ¡°To recuperate well, it will be a long process. However, I want to know who exactly you offended? Why did you make them spend so much effort to poison you day after day?¡±


    ¡°What did you say? Poison!¡±


    Su Ling¡¯s voice was sharp, as if she had realized something. She lowered her voice with just one word, as if she was afraid that someone would hear her. She gradually tightened her grip on Chi Xiao¡¯s hand, causing her to frown. ¡°Is what you said true? Did someone really poison Ting?¡±


    Chi Xiao pulled her hand out without batting an eyelid and looked at Su Ling¡¯s anxious expression. She sighed and said, ¡°Yes, and this person hates Mo Ting very much. This poison is colorless and tasteless, so you won¡¯t be able to see its effects in the short term. It has to be taken daily in small amounts to be effective. When the poison takes effect, it first causes dizziness, headache, and insomnia, and then the symptoms are very similar to kidney failure.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not kidney failure?¡±


    ¡°Of course not.¡±


    Su Ling¡¯s head was itching with hatred. However, there were countless people that Mo Ting interacted with every day, and she could not find out who would hate him so much. She could only clench her teeth and stare at Mo Ting non-stop with tears in her eyes.


    After accumulating some strength, Mo Ting asked, ¡°If I want to recuperate, how long will it take?¡±


    Chi Xiao said faintly, ¡°That will depend on your physique. Don¡¯t think that it will be less than three to five months.¡±


    Mo Ting did not say anything.


    It was rare for the room to become quiet. Not long after, there was a knock on the door. Accompanied by a soft voice mixed with sobs, ¡°Dad, Dad, are you inside?¡±


    ¡°Young master, didn¡¯t I just say that the heir is now seriously ill and can¡¯t play with you anymore?¡±


    Before the nanny could finish her sentence, the door was opened and an extremely ugly woman was revealed. The nanny was scared out of her wits and sat on the ground, pointing at Chi Xiao and unable to speak.


    Chi Xiao lowered her head and looked at the little boy in front of her. There were two teardrops on the little boy¡¯s fair and tender cheeks. At this moment, he was looking up at her in a daze.


    ¡°Who are you?¡± The little boy asked, and after a long while, asked, ¡°What happened to your face?¡±


    The little boy only said two sentences, but Chi Xiao was staring at him with pretty eyes.


    The little boy held his small hands together and twisted them uncomfortably. ¡°Why¡­ why are you looking at me?¡±


    Looking at the little boy, Chi Xiao felt that the heavens did not let her down. This little boy was actually 70-80% similar to her, especially that pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes. They were practically carved from the same mold.


    Chi Xiao was in a daze. The little boy squeezed over and pounced on Mo Ting¡¯s bed. Looking at Mo Ting, he started to cry..

 Chapter 5

    ¡°Dad, how are you? If Han Han blows on you, will you feel better?¡± Mo Han blew on Mo Ting. His little face was full and looked extremely cute.


    Mo Ting smiled and touched Mo Han¡¯s head. He said softly, ¡°I¡¯m fine now. Thank you, Han Han.¡±


    Mo Han blushed at the praise and raised his head to greet Su Ling. Then, he looked at Chi Xiao timidly and asked Mo Ting in a low voice, ¡°Who is this sister?¡±


    ¡°Sister?¡± Chi Xiao walked over with a smile and nodded at Mo Han, ¡°Why do you think I¡¯m your sister?¡±


    Mo Han tilted her head and thought for a while. It seemed that third Grandpa¡¯s cousin always said that a sister was a person who made him feel close to her. In the future, no matter what he said, she would listen to him and help him achieve it.


    Mo Han looked at Chi Xiao with curved eyes. Although the elder sister in front of him was a little ugly, he was happy to see her. He felt that he didn¡¯t need to do anything and this elder sister would help him achieve his wishes unconditionally.


    Su Ling rubbed Mo Han¡¯s head with a smile and said gently, ¡°You can¡¯t call her Sister. In the future, she will be your father¡¯s wife.¡± Su Ling pointed at Chi Xiao and then at Mo Ting, ¡°So you should call her mom.¡±


    ¡°Mom?¡± Mo Han called out in a low voice. It was hard to tell whether or not he was happy. A moment later, he said in a childish manner, ¡°It must be fate. My father is getting married and I can¡¯t control it.¡±


    Chi Xiao felt happy when she saw Mo Han¡¯s smart look. At first she just wanted to cure Mo Ting and not let him die. Now, it wouldn¡¯t be a bad idea to change her mind and let Mo Ting live well so that he could continue to treat Mo Han well in the future.


    These thoughts were a little selfish though.


    Chi Xiao looked at Mo Ting¡¯s handsome face and then looked at Mo Han who was almost like him. Maybe she felt a little sorry for Mo Ting.


    ¡°Dad, will your illness be cured after you marry Sister?¡± Mo Han¡¯s voice was light. After all, he was still young and easily fooled. He was instantly happy, ¡°That¡¯s great. In the future, Dad will do the same as before, accompany me to do my homework and go out to play.¡±


    Although he wasn¡¯t sure, Mo Ting didn¡¯t want his son to feel unhappy, so he smiled and said softly, ¡°Okay, I will get well soon. When the time comes, I will take Han Han to the amusement park.¡±


    Mo Han immediately clapped his hands and said in a tender voice, ¡°That¡¯s great.¡±


    Seeing Mo Han so happy, Chi Xiao, who was standing at the side, was also happy. It was as if she had eaten honey. What could make a mother happier than knowing that her son was still alive and that he had been taken good care of for so many years?


    Chi Xiao was almost certain that Mo Han was her son.


    Before Chi Xiao could think more, Mo Han had already hugged her waist. The child was not tall enough, and his small arms were raised high, making people feel comfortable just by looking at them.


    Mo Han took a deep breath and said softly, ¡°The smell on Sister¡¯s body is so familiar. I think I¡¯ve smelled it somewhere before.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    Mo Han buried her head in Chi Xiao¡¯s lap and thought for a long time, but he still couldn¡¯t figure it out.


    However, Mo Han felt very safe beside her, and his heart was very peaceful. Unfortunately, he was too young, so he couldn¡¯t understand this feeling.


    Su Ling patted Mo Han¡¯s head and pulled him into her arms, ¡°Han Han, you called her the wrong name again. You can¡¯t call her Sister. You have to call her Mom or Auntie.¡±


    Mo Han thought for a moment and smiled at Chi Xiao. ¡°Mom!¡±


    Calling her ¡®Mom¡¯ almost made Chi Xiao cry on the spot. She hid her trembling hands behind her back and in order not to reveal her crying voice, Chi Xiao replied softly, ¡°Yes.¡±


    Chi Xiao was arranged to stay in a room on the third floor. The room was not bad. At the very least, compared to the storage room of the Chi family, it was like a five-star luxury hotel.


    Chi Xiao gave Jin Mao a call and confirmed that the child Jin Mao mentioned was Mo Han. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Find out what the relationship between Mo Han and Mo Ting is and why Mo Han is at the Mo family.¡±


    After the other person agreed, Chi Xiao thought for a while and said, ¡°Also, find out why Mo Ting was poisoned and who poisoned him.¡±


    She did all this for her Han Han¡¯s good. After all, Han Han liked Mo Ting very much. If she cured Mo Ting and he was poisoned again without anyone knowing, she wouldn¡¯t be able to say anything. It would be so unfair.


    Jin Mao was a little surprised when he heard Chi Xiao¡¯s words. He teased, ¡°Then boss, do you need me to help you investigate the relationship between the various members of the Mo Family?¡±


    This¡­


    Chi Xiao¡¯s eyes lit up. She coughed lightly and pretended to be deep as she said, ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Jin Mao hung up the phone before he could even laugh out loud.


    This was really too interesting. Since when did their cold and heartless boss, who only cared about money and not people, do such a thing? And she even said that it was for the sake of the child?


    Jin Mao hummed twice. In a few days, the child¡¯s father would probably become their boss..

 Chapter 6

    It was night at the capital. Those who worked overtime were intoxicated.


    Yunyi Lane was the best place in the capital. There was an entire street of bars. There were ordinary bars and bars where only people with ID cards could enter.


    A few young men and women went to a certain clubhouse. They wanted to take advantage of their drunkenness to try and see what the legendary clubhouse that only the rich and powerful could enter looked like.


    However, when they saw the two rows of muscular black-clothed bodyguards at the door, the courage that they had a moment ago immediately disappeared. They did not even need the bodyguards to chase them away before running off themselves.


    After walking far away, the few of them still looked back at the clubhouse with lingering fear.


    The huge ¡°Yun Shang Clubhouse¡± sign above the building was still flashing with a red light.


    It seemed that they did not have the chance to visit it.


    In a private room of Yun Shang Clubhouse, a few middle-aged men were toasting. A slightly plump but still handsome man was in high spirits, and he said, ¡°This round¡¯s on me. Order whatever you want. Put it on my tab.¡±


    ¡°CEO Chi is so bright!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ve already said that the marriage between the Chi family and the Mo family is an excellent one. Didn¡¯t CEO Chi sign a big contract today?¡±


    ¡°¡­¡±


    Chi Rui¡¯s expression turned cold. Chi Rui liked the flattery at the start, but what did the following mean? Wasn¡¯t the person saying that he could only sign the contract by relying on the Mo Family?


    Someone beside him noticed Chi Rui¡¯s cold expression and quickly said, ¡°CEO Chi¡¯s business is doing well. Even if it has nothing to do with the Mo family, it should be CEO Chi¡¯s contract. No one can snatch it away from him, don¡¯t you think so?¡±


    Everyone present was experienced and naturally understood that he was trying to smooth things over with Chi Rui. They immediately tried to accommodate him and the atmosphere in the room reached its peak.


    Only then did Chi Rui¡¯s expression calm down. He said in a reserved manner, ¡°That¡¯s true. The Chi family has been preparing this contract for a long time. It¡¯s only natural that it was signed.¡±


    After what had just happened, the people present naturally did not find trouble with Chi Rui. The atmosphere became even more harmonious.


    After a few rounds of drinking, someone took advantage of the tipsy atmosphere and said, ¡°CEO Chi, you said that you sent your eldest daughter to marry that short-lived heir from the Mo family. Don¡¯t you feel sorry for her?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s there to feel sorry for?¡± Chi Rui narrowed his eyes slightly and said half-drunk, ¡°Isn¡¯t she just a daughter? It¡¯s her honor to be able to marry into the Mo family.¡±


    After saying that, Chi Rui pulled everyone together in a mysterious manner and said, ¡°You guys don¡¯t know that my eldest daughter is extremely ugly. Four years or so ago, she actually gave birth to a child out of wedlock. Fortunately, that child is gone now. It doesn¡¯t count as bringing shame to the Chi family.¡±


    When the others heard this, they were a little confused. ¡°The daughter you¡¯re talking about is Chi Xiao?¡±


    After receiving Chi Rui¡¯s nod, everyone was shocked.


    They all knew who Chi Xiao was. As the heir of the Chi family and the Xiao family, Chi Xiao was undoubtedly outstanding. Four years ago, the young masters in the capital city who wanted to marry Chi Xiao lined up from the front gate of the Chi family to five streets across outside.


    However, a fire broke out in the Chi family four years ago. From then on, Chi Xiao disappeared without a trace.


    However, they did not expect to hear news of Chi Xiao again under such circumstances.


    Everyone looked at Chi Rui in a daze and sighed in their hearts.


    Chi Rui was also not a loyal person. Less than a week after Chi Xiao¡¯s mother died, he could not wait to raise his lover¡¯s status and even claimed that they were truly in love. Even the illegitimate daughter had gained a different status due to the talk of true love.


    The few CEOs looked at one another and saw disdain in one another¡¯s eyes.


    Chi Rui was originally an illegitimate child of the Chi family and was extremely disliked there. When he first pursued the Xiao family¡¯s little princess, he was sincere and acted humbly towards Elder Xiao. In the end, he managed to deceive the Xiao family¡¯s little princess.


    The good times did not last long. Not long after Elder Xiao¡¯s death, Chi Rui revealed his true nature and treated Chi Xiao¡¯s mother extremely poorly. It was only after Chi Xiao¡¯s mother¡¯s death that they found out that Chi Rui had an illegitimate daughter outside who was almost the same age as Chi Xiao.


    The man was really something else to be able to do this.


    The middle-aged man was still bragging about his glorious life in the room. Outside, Chi Xiao heard Chi Rui talking about her and her mother without a care in the world, and she almost twisted the doorknob off.


    Jin Mao was following behind Chi Xiao and called out nervously, ¡°Boss?¡±


    After a while, the room returned to silence. Chi Xiao finally calmed down and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. ¡°Get someone to go in. Find any excuse. In short, I want Chi Rui to be embarrassed today.¡±


    After a pause, Chi Xiao added in her heart, ¡°It would be best if the embarrassment could last for the rest of his life.¡±


    Jin Mao asked, ¡°Boss, do you want to install a surveillance camera to record Chi Rui¡¯s ugly behavior today?¡±


    ¡°With you recording it, are you planning for Yun Shang to go out of business in the future?¡± Chi Xiao glanced at Jin Mao before praising him, ¡°However, it wouldn¡¯t be bad if I could see Chi Rui¡¯s ugly behavior with my own eyes. Go ahead and make the arrangements. I want to see it..¡±

 Chapter 7

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Jin Mao cursed in his heart, ¡®State officials are allowed to set fires while commoners aren¡¯t allowed to light lanterns.¡¯ On the other hand, he looked as though he was a happy lackey.


    Chi Xiao crossed her arms and watched coldly as Jin Mao went over to make trouble.


    As expected of a trusted aide who had followed Chi Xiao for four years, Jin Mao was extremely capable and smart. It didn¡¯t take long for him to find someone from the Chi family, who was completely devoted to his wife, and who was about to sign the contract with Chi Rui.


    He used Chi Rui¡¯s name to invite the other party to Yun Shang Clubhouse, allowing him to witness Chi Rui¡¯s ugly behavior.


    Chi Rui was so shocked that he sobered up after hearing that the collaboration was over.


    However, Chi Rui was despicable and shameless.


    Even though he knew that it was his own fault, he still used the Mo family¡¯s name to threaten the other party, even after pleading with no results. He didn¡¯t even feel ashamed with what he said. He couldn¡¯t be bothered to hide the smug look on his face.


    The partner was so angry that he felt dizzy. He sneered and said, ¡°Since that¡¯s what you think, I¡¯ll go ask the Mo family how they tolerate a treacherous person like you.¡±


    His voice was sonorous and forceful, causing Chi Rui¡¯s face to turn red.


    It was not because he was ashamed, but because he was angry.


    Chi Rui had lost a lot of face in front of his partners, so everything else naturally ended. Chi Xiao looked at Chi Rui¡¯s bill with some regret. It was a pity that he had only spent tens of thousands of yuan.


    Although Chi Xiao felt a little regretful, Yun Shang had never been in the business of trading by coercion, so she had no choice but to give up.


    With nothing else to do, Chi Xiao prepared to leave. However, she bumped into Chi Ying, who was bringing her friends to the gathering.


    ¡°You guys don¡¯t know that I originally didn¡¯t want to come, but my father insisted on giving me Yun Shang¡¯s card.¡±


    ¡°You guys don¡¯t understand. My sister has liked Mo Ting since she was young. Now that she¡¯s married to him, it¡¯s a good deal.¡±


    Chi Ying spared no effort to discredit Chi Xiao. ¡°After all, my sister¡¯s face¡­¡±


    She suddenly stopped mid-sentence and stared blankly at the woman walking towards her from the corridor. The woman¡¯s looks were so good that Chi Ying was intimidated. Her figure was enchanting and graceful, exactly the same as the ugly Chi Xiao.


    Chi Ying was in a bad mood, so she wanted to go up and find trouble with this woman. So, she turned her body slightly and bumped into her.


    Chi Ying felt the pain and took a few steps back before falling into the arms of a male classmate who had followed her.


    ¡°Ying Ying, are you alright?¡±


    ¡°Ying Ying, are you hurt?¡±


    Her friends were all talking to Chi Ying and there were even people who wanted to punish Chi Xiao. After seeing her face, they gradually lost their temper.


    Chi Xiao only took a few steps back before leaning against the wall and standing up straight. When she raised her head, she saw that the person who bumped into her was Chi Ying. Chi Xiao felt that she was not enjoying herself as she had just dealt with Chi Rui. Now, she had coincidentally bumped into Chi Ying.


    Chi Xiao stood up and looked at Chi Ying casually.


    Compared to Chi Xiao¡¯s elegance, Chi Ying¡¯s actions were indeed a little ugly. Chi Ying did not notice it as she leaned into the boy¡¯s arms and said coquettishly, ¡°It hurts so much. Thank goodness you held me up.¡±


    The boy lowered his head and looked at Chi Ying coldly. Then, he silently took a step back.


    Chi Ying, who was leaning on him, naturally could not stand. She lay down on the ground. This time, it was real. Chi Xiao felt extremely annoyed listening to the sound on the other end.


    Chi Ying had lost face. She wanted to find someone to vent her anger on, but the boy¡¯s family background was prominent and she could not offend him. Naturally, she could not get angry at him. All of her friends around her were either rich or noble.


    Suddenly, a laugh reached Chi Ying¡¯s ears.


    Chi Ying looked over coldly. It was that extremely beautiful woman. She stood at the side and smiled with her eyes curved.


    Chi Ying was furious and scolded angrily, ¡°You¡¯re still smiling? You knocked me down and you don¡¯t even know how to say sorry? What kind of person are you? Didn¡¯t your parents raise you?¡±


    Chi Ying thought that she was scolding her fiercely. She was only waiting for the woman in front of her to get angry so she could say more things to her. However, as she waited and waited, she could only see the woman in front of her looking at her with a smile, as if she was looking at a clown.


    Chi Ying was filled with hatred. She could not care less about her image. She opened her mouth and scolded, ¡°You bitch. With such a seductive face, who do you want to seduce? Are you just waiting to be a mistress? You shameless thing.¡±


    If it was in the past, Chi Ying would never be so brainless.


    However, the woman in front of her had a figure and temperament that was too similar to Chi Xiao¡¯s. Chi Ying even thought of Chi Xiao in the past.


    In the past, when her mother was still Chi Rui¡¯s mistress, Chi Ying had sneaked out to take a look. When she saw Chi Xiao giving a speech as the representative of the entire school, that beautiful face and that confident and generous temperament made Chi Ying¡¯s heart itch, she then felt ashamed.


    She could not compare to Chi Xiao.


    Chi Ying knew this all along. However, Chi Ying was unwilling to admit that she was inferior to Chi Xiao.


    She wanted the whole world to know that a legitimate daughter might not necessarily be that good, and an illegitimate daughter could also be very outstanding, just like in the case of her and Chi Xiao..

 Chapter 8

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    She wanted everyone to know that she was better than Chi Xiao.


    That was why four years ago, when Qi Yun set the fire, she advised Qi Yun not to burn Chi Xiao to death. Chi Ying wanted Chi Xiao to be completely unrecognizable. She wanted everyone to laugh at her.


    At that time, Qi Yun was shocked by Chi Ying. Although she also hated Chi Xiao and her mother for taking away the positions that should have belonged to Chi Ying and her, she never thought that her daughter would be so vicious.


    People shouldn¡¯t take things too far and bring more pain and suffering to others.


    However, when she saw the hatred in Chi Ying¡¯s eyes, Qi Yun still agreed with her idea. After Chi Xiao¡¯s face was disfigured, she would throw her to a village and wait for Chi Xiao to die on her own.


    Chi Ying looked at the smiling woman in front of her and was furious. She immediately screamed, ¡°Security, where is security? Throw this woman out and don¡¯t let her step in again.¡±


    How could the security around them act?


    All of them glared at Chi Ying. It seemed that as long as Chi Xiao said the word, they would obey her and throw Chi Ying out.


    Chi Xiao looked at Chi Ying and thought it was funny. This person didn¡¯t seem to recognize her.


    It made sense. Her face had changed a lot. She wore sunglasses and hadn¡¯t appeared in front of others for a long time. It was so long that she didn¡¯t even recognize her own father.


    ¡°Miss, please be quiet. If you continue to disturb others like this, we will need to show you out.¡± The security guard looked at Chi Ying with a gloomy expression.


    ¡°Do you, do you know who I am?¡± She was even more embarrassed.


    Chi Ying forced herself to say, ¡°You have to be careful. If you offend me, you¡¯d better believe that I will make you unable to find a job in the capital.¡±


    ¡°Young lady, you must be really amazing. May I ask who you are? With just one sentence, you can make a few good people lose their jobs?¡± Chi Xiao sneered and used her eyes to signal for the surrounding security guards to calm down.


    ¡°I¡¯m Chi Ying, from the Chi family. Look at my face clearly. Don¡¯t forget it when you see me again in the future.¡±


    As the daughter of the Chi family, Chi Ying was probably the proudest and most capable person.


    It was a pity that in Yun Shang, no one cared about her identity as the daughter of the Chi family.


    Chi Xiao immediately clapped her hands and looked extremely shocked. ¡°What a coincidence. Just now, CEO Chi Rui was chased out. I wonder if you¡¯ll catch up to him if you leave now.¡±


    ¡°What did you say? That¡¯s impossible!¡± Chi Ying exclaimed in shock. Her eyes were wide open as she stared at Chi Xiao, wishing she could tear her mouth apart.


    Turning her head slightly, Chi Ying saw the boy¡¯s disgusted gaze on her. When she met Chi Xiao¡¯s gaze again, she felt even more hatred.


    ¡°Can¡¯t you just make a phone call to find out whether it¡¯s possible?¡± Chi Xiao crossed her arms and looked at Chi Ying calmly.


    That was impossible.


    She must be trying to provoke her. This wouldn¡¯t happen.


    It definitely wouldn¡¯t happen like this.


    Chi Ying comforted herself, but the more she did, the more flustered she became. In the end, under Chi Xiao¡¯s gaze, she could not help but call Chi Rui.


    Not only did Chi Rui lose his contract, he was even chased out of Yun Shang in a sorry state. His face was trampled to pieces on the ground.


    Now that he had received a call from Chi Ying, his attitude was naturally not good.


    When Chi Rui heard Chi Ying talk about what happened in Yun Shang, he felt even more embarrassed. After scolding Chi Ying, he hung up the phone and ordered Chi Ying to go home.


    With such an outcome, how could Chi Ying not know that things were really as the beautiful woman in front of her had said.


    Her father, who seemed to be omnipotent in her eyes, was really chased out of the clubhouse.


    Suddenly remembering that she was still in front of her friends, Chi Ying almost did not dare to look at them.


    However, she seemed to sense that her friends were looking at her with a mocking gaze. They lowered their heads and were laughing at her. When they spoke, they were whispering about her.


    Chi Ying suddenly shrieked. She shook off the crowd and dashed out of the clubhouse.


    Chi Xiao and the surrounding security guards looked at one another and saw the confusion in one another¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°Is her mental fortitude that bad?¡± Chi Xiao clicked her tongue. She ignored the friends that Chi Ying brought and was about to leave.


    Before she could take two steps, she was stopped by the boy who had just helped Chi Ying up before pushing her to the ground again.


    The boy looked fair and clean. He looked at Chi Xiao in puzzlement and asked, ¡°Have we met somewhere before?¡±


    Chi Xiao then gave the boy a look. After thinking for a long time, she still could not think of a good excuse. She shook her head coldly and said, ¡°Your approach is a little old-fashioned.¡±


    ¡°My name is He Sheng,¡± he said it in a loud voice.


    At that moment, he felt very strange. It was like if he didn¡¯t say it now, he would never have the chance to say it again.


    Chi Xiao paused for a second, then quickly returned to normal. She pretended not to hear it and strode away.


    After getting on the car to the Mo family, Chi Xiao finally heaved a sigh of relief.


    She knew He Sheng.


    Not only did she know him, but they were also very close. Before her mother¡¯s accident, her mother had even planned to set them up together. However, the two of them were too close. They were very comfortable as friends, but if they crossed the boundary¡­ the two of them were slightly embarrassed..

 Chapter 9

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Through the rearview mirror, the driver in the front row saw that his boss was sticking a scar on her face again. Her originally beautiful face instantly became so ugly that it made one¡¯s hair stand on end.


    The driver could not help but mumble, ¡°Boss, why?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    The driver asked, ¡°Boss, you have enough power now and you have your own abilities. Why do you still want to go back to the Chi family to suffer?¡±


    Hearing this, Chi Xiao curled her lips, causing the mottled scars on her face to squirm like worms. ¡°Back then, Qi Yun tried to burn me, but how could she have not left any traces or evidence after the incident?¡±


    ¡°Boss, you mean¡­¡±


    ¡°There¡¯s still someone behind Qi Yun. I want to go back and find this person,¡± Chi Xiao said in a slightly low voice. ¡°Moreover, I still have some suspicions. I suspect that my mother¡¯s death was also someone¡¯s doing.¡±


    The driver immediately fell silent.


    He could not be considered to be Chi Xiao¡¯s confidant. Now that he suddenly heard a possible secret, he felt somewhat uneasy. He was only afraid that if the news was leaked, he would be the first suspect.


    Thinking of Jin Mao¡¯s past methods, the driver shivered.


    Who was Chi Xiao? Seeing the driver¡¯s reaction, she immediately knew what he was thinking. She immediately comforted him with a smile. ¡°Everyone knows about this. You don¡¯t have to be afraid.¡±


    Even so, the hands that were holding the steering wheel couldn¡¯t help but tremble.


    Halfway through driving, the driver suddenly stopped. Chi Xiao¡¯s head bumped into the car door. She looked over in confusion and saw a fair and tender little boy standing up from the ground. He patted the dust off his body and skipped over.


    ¡°Han Han? Why are you here?¡± Chi Xiao cried out in surprise and hurriedly opened the car door to welcome Mo Han in.


    There was a woman following behind Mo Han. According to Chi Xiao¡¯s memory, this woman should be the nanny of the Mo family. When she went to the Mo family yesterday, this nanny was there.


    However, at that time, this nanny was still looking at her with a face full of disdain. Now, she seemed to be a little panicked.


    ¡°Mom, you¡¯ve come to pick me up!¡± Mo Han was happy, and the expression on his face was extremely lively.


    In the duration of two sentences, the nanny caught up to Mo Han¡¯s side and squatted down to coax him, ¡°Little Master, she¡¯s not Mom. Let¡¯s go, hurry up and go.¡±


    This scene was interesting. Chi Xiao saw that Mo Han was unhappy, so she quickly pushed the door open and got out of the car. She grabbed Mo Han back and stood up with her arms around him, ¡°Who are you? What are you doing to my son?¡±


    The nanny shrank back and said as if she had thought of something, ¡°What are you talking about? How is this your son? This is obviously the little master.¡±


    After saying that, the nanny looked at Mo Han with a desperate expression.


    However, Mo Han just leaned on Chi Xiao¡¯s shoulder and ignored the nanny. Chi Xiao¡¯s expression turned cold as she realized that there was something wrong with the nanny.


    Chi Xiao leaned against the car and knocked on the window six times. The driver immediately understood and called the police.


    The nanny saw that Chi Xiao had made up her mind not to hand Mo Han over to her and immediately knelt on the ground, crying bitterly, ¡°Miss, this is our family¡¯s little master. Miss, please return the little master to me. Otherwise, the main family will beat me to death.¡±


    ¡°I am the child¡¯s mother. Is there any problem with the child being with me?¡± Chi Xiao sneered and replied.


    The nanny was immediately blinded. She looked at Chi Xiao blankly and asked, ¡°Who are you? I don¡¯t know you. How can you be our little master¡¯s mother?¡±


    The nanny originally wanted to call some people over and use public opinion to force Chi Xiao to give the child back.


    She didn¡¯t dare to raise her head. She didn¡¯t dare to look at Chi Xiao¡¯s face. It was too scary.


    However, the time wasn¡¯t right. It was a little late and there weren¡¯t many people on the street. Even if people were called over, they were still scattered. They would be scared away when they saw Chi Xiao¡¯s face.


    Seeing this, the nanny¡¯s expression changed. She raised her head and looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s skinny body. Immediately, she felt an evil feeling rise in her heart. She rushed forward and wanted to snatch Mo Han back from Chi Xiao¡¯s arms.


    However, even though Chi Xiao looked skinny, the strength in her arms was not to laugh at. The nanny, who was used to doing hard work all year round, was no competition for Chi Xiao. She was even pushed back by her.


    ¡°That¡¯s our little master. Hurry up and return him.¡± The nanny clutched her chest and screamed at the top of her lungs. Her gaze was heartbreaking.


    Chi Xiao looked at her for a while before she nudged Mo Han, ¡°Han Han, how are you doing? Mom is here.¡±


    Because she was too emotional, her arms that were hugging Mo Han were trembling.


    Mo Han turned his head and said in a low voice, ¡°Mom, Auntie Zhao is a bad person.¡±


    After all, he was still young and couldn¡¯t explain things clearly. After tossing and turning, he could only provide one piece of useful information: ¡°Auntie Zhao is a bad person.¡±


    Hearing this, the nanny¡¯s expression immediately turned ugly. Her eyes rolled around in her sockets for a few times before she suddenly said, ¡°Miss Chi, as the eldest young madam of the Mo family, isn¡¯t it a little inappropriate for you to openly ride in another man¡¯s car?¡±


    As if she had thought of something smart, the nanny stood up and dusted off the dust on her clothes. ¡°You don¡¯t want me to tell others, do you?¡±

 Chapter 10

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The nanny said proudly, ¡°You also want to be the young lady of the Mo family. With the little master around, your child will never be the first successor. Why don¡¯t you hand the little master over to me?¡±


    The more she talked, the more the nanny felt that what she said made sense. The way she looked at Chi Xiao became more and more complacent.


    She opened her hand and waited for Chi Xiao to return Mo Han.


    Unexpectedly, Chi Xiao actually smiled. Although her face was still ugly and terrifying, the nanny actually forcefully looked through her ugly face and felt that Chi Xiao should be a good-looking person.


    Chi Xiao nudged Mo Han and smiled as she pointed at the nanny and said, ¡°Han Han, do you see? A person like this is called a jumping clown. In the future, you must remember not to become such a person.¡±


    The nanny was furious, ¡°Young Madam, are you really not afraid that I will tell young master about the fact that you hooked up with someone else?¡±


    Chi Xiao was not afraid at all and continued to educate Mo Han in a low voice.


    Perhaps it was because of the smile on Chi Xiao¡¯s face, or because Chi Xiao¡¯s voice was too peaceful, Mo Han was gradually no longer afraid. He would nod his head as Chi Xiao spoke, looking a little more energetic.


    Gradually, the nanny started to panic, especially after hearing the sound of the police car.


    Seeing that the nanny intended to run, Chi Xiao quickly walked over and kicked the nanny¡¯s knee. The nanny fell forward on the ground.


    After being stepped on by Chi Xiao, her four limbs struggled helplessly, and she looked like a tortoise whose shell was being pressed down.


    The police quickly rushed over. After asking about the person who reported the case, they brought the few people into the police station.


    On the way, Chi Xiao looked at Mo Han who was feeling a little uneasy. She smiled lightly and patted Mo Han¡¯s head. She comforted him, ¡°Han Han, don¡¯t be afraid. It¡¯s alright. We¡¯ll go home later, alright?¡±


    When they arrived at the police station, Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family had already arrived. They even looked at Chi Xiao with a gaze that was filled with disappointment. Second Uncle Mo¡¯s tone was sinister as he said, ¡°You¡¯re troubling the police for such a small matter? You really don¡¯t know what¡¯s important.¡±


    Chi Xiao looked at these people and felt that it was funny. Why was such a nanny so important? Was it actually worth Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family taking action together?


    Mo Ting¡¯s younger brother, Mo Xuan, also looked at Chi Xiao with a disapproving gaze. His mouth was mumbling, but no one knew what he was saying.


    ¡°How did such a small matter end up in the police station?¡±


    The person who said this was Mo Xuan¡¯s mother. She had a gentle appearance and an easy-going temperament. However, when she looked at Chi Xiao, her beautiful eyes seemed to be filled with poison.


    Her expression was clearly telling Chi Xiao that she should think things through before speaking.


    However, Chi Xiao laughed lightly. The scar on her face changed with her expression. ¡°I suspected that this nanny wanted to abduct the Mo family¡¯s eldest grandson. Is this a small matter? Do you think that this is a small matter?¡±


    ¡°Abduct¡­ abduct?¡± There was a moment of panic on Mo Xuan¡¯s expression, but he quickly calmed down. ¡°What are you talking about? Aunt Zhao has worked for the Mo family for many years. How can she be a human trafficker?¡±


    Mo Xuan¡¯s expression was too obvious. How could Chi Xiao not know the relationship between the nanny and Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family?


    After understanding the thoughts of this family, Chi Xiao gritted her teeth in hatred. She looked at them coldly, and in the end, Chi Xiao shook her head and wanted to enter the police station.


    Before she could walk in, her hand was grabbed by Second Uncle Mo and she stopped.


    Chi Xiao looked coldly at Second Uncle Mo. His breathing was too rapid, causing his chest to rise and fall quickly.


    ¡°Go back quickly. Don¡¯t embarrass yourself here. I¡¯ll take care of it.¡± Second Uncle Mo frowned with a look of mercy.


    ¡°Second Uncle, you will take care of it? How will you take care of it? Bring her back and wait for Han Han to be taken away again?¡±


    If it was in the past, Chi Xiao would definitely not do such an impulsive thing. However, because the matter involved Mo Han, and she had been looking for Mo Han for four years, Chi Xiao could not calm down no matter how hard she tried and fell into a disadvantageous position.


    ¡°What kind of attitude is this? I¡¯m your elder!¡± Second Uncle Mo¡¯s voice was cold, and even his gaze was as sharp as a knife. ¡°Mo Ting is bedridden, so I naturally have to take care of his son in his place.¡±


    Chi Xiao was anxious and was about to retort when she heard a series of coughs coming from outside the door. Following that, a man in a wheelchair was pushed in.


    The man¡¯s expression was not good and his dark circles were very heavy. After coughing for a while, he said, ¡°Since he¡¯s my son, I should have the right to take care of him, right?¡±


    Only after he entered did Chi Xiao see clearly that the person who came was actually Mo Ting.


    Mo Ting could get up?


    Chi Xiao looked at Mo Ting and her expression gradually became confused.


    ¡°Second Uncle, no matter what, Xiao Xiao is still my wife. Isn¡¯t this kind of attitude a little inappropriate?¡±


    After saying this, Mo Ting covered his mouth and started coughing again.


    Second Uncle Mo quickly released Chi Xiao¡¯s hand and cursed in his heart. Why would Mo Ting come over because of something like this when he clearly looked like he was about to die?


    Mo Ting¡¯s gaze was too cold. It was so cold that Second Uncle Mo couldn¡¯t help but feel a little afraid.


    ¡°Cough, young Ting, why are you here? Are you feeling better?¡± Second Uncle Mo asked in a fawning manner as a ruthless glint flashed across his eyes.


    Mo Ting took a silk handkerchief and wiped his mouth, but he didn¡¯t respond to Second Uncle Mo¡¯s words. He only looked at Chi Xiao..

 Chapter 11

    It was as if he was asking Chi Xiao if she was alright?


    Chi Xiao¡¯s expression relaxed slightly. When she thought about how Mo Ting had dragged his sick body to deal with Mo Han¡¯s matter, she couldn¡¯t help but feel more satisfied with Mo Ting. She even changed her mind about wanting to treat Mo Ting just for the sake of his image.


    Seeing how Mo Ting treated Han so well, she decided to just barely treat him.


    Chi Xiao felt a little awkward. As she watched Mo Ting and Second Uncle Mo fight, Mo Han¡¯s tender voice came into her ears, ¡°Mom, when we were at home, Second Grandpa didn¡¯t like me very much. He always talked bad about dad behind his back. I heard it a few times.¡±


    Chi Xiao also moved closer to Mo Han¡¯s ear and asked, ¡°Does Han Han like Second Grandpa?¡±


    Mo Han quickly shook his head. His small head was like a rattle-drum.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s eyes were curved.


    It was a pity that Chi Xiao¡¯s face was now covered with a scar. Her curved eyes could scare people to death.


    Mo Xuan inadvertently saw it, but he was so scared that his legs went soft.


    ¡°Han Han should stay far away from Second Grandpa. You should also stay far away from the people that Second Grandpa arranged for you,¡± Chi Xiao said as she tidied up Mo Han¡¯s slightly wrinkled clothes. Her entire body was filled with the radiance of a loving mother.


    Mo Ting¡¯s peripheral vision did not shift away from Chi Xiao. He did not know what he had thought of, but he did not even have the time to respond to Second Uncle Mo¡¯s words.


    No matter how much he tried to curry favor with Mo Ting, Second Uncle Mo thought of himself as an elder. When he saw how Mo Ting ignored him, his heart burned with anger, ¡°Young Ting, I¡¯m talking to you.¡±


    His voice was loud and clear, but when he saw Mo Ting¡¯s expression, his aura suddenly weakened. When he saw Mo Ting¡¯s gaze, Second Uncle Mo also turned his gaze to Chi Xiao, who was taking care of the child.


    ¡°Young Ting, I¡­¡±


    Halfway through his words, Mo Ting stretched out his hand to stop Second Uncle Mo from speaking.


    ¡°Second Uncle, there are some things that can¡¯t be done. If you all go back now, I can still pretend that nothing happened. If you are still looking for trouble, why don¡¯t you all go in together?¡±


    After Mo Ting finished speaking, as if it was an agreement, the police officers also came out and called Mo Han and Chi Xiao in.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s gaze towards Second Uncle Mo made him understand that he might not be able to solve the problem just because he had money.


    Thus, he could only sigh and turn around to leave.


    He was indeed the one who had arranged for the nanny to abduct and sell Mo Han. His goal was to have his son replace Mo Ting after Mo Ting¡¯s death. Who knew that his plan would be ruined by a woman like Chi Xiao who no one liked.


    Seeing Second Uncle Mo leave, Chi Xiao nodded slightly at Mo Ting. She knew clearly what Mo Ting meant. She also knew that this matter alone could not convict Second Uncle Mo. If he had someone to be his scapegoat, Mo Ting had to be ruthless. It was better to find something that Second Uncle Mo could not push onto someone else.


    After Chi Xiao entered the interrogation room, Mo Ting heaved a sigh of relief. He leaned against the back of the chair and panted slowly.


    ¡°Young Master!¡± Mo Ting¡¯s assistant called out worriedly.


    However, Mo Ting waved his hand and asked after taking two deep breaths, ¡°Look, does Xiao Xiao look like she¡¯s shining?¡±


    The assistant was stunned and did not answer for a moment.


    Mo Ting found it funny and pointed at the assistant and laughed, ¡°I¡¯m asking you.¡±


    Seeing Mo Ting like this, the assistant was even more stunned. He stared at Chi Xiao¡¯s back and thought, could it be that their boss likes ugly people?


    The uglier they were, the more he liked them?


    Because she was the one who reported the case, and the one who the victim relied upon, Chi Xiao was treated very well by the police. After Chi Xiao finished speaking, they sent her out safely.


    Mo Ting saw Chi Xiao come out and greeted her with a smile. He asked, ¡°How¡¯s the situation?¡±


    Chi Xiao also smiled. For some reason, at this moment, she felt an unprecedented peace in her heart.


    When the two of them left the police station, the sky was a little bright. Mo Han had already fallen asleep on Chi Xiao¡¯s body.


    ¡°Thank you for today.¡± Mo Ting¡¯s voice was very soft. He gently rubbed Mo Han¡¯s head. The love in his eyes could not be concealed.


    Chi Xiao shook her head, ¡°It¡¯s what I had to do.¡±


    The air became quiet.


    Mo Ting asked, ¡°Are you interested in acting with me?¡±


    ¡°Acting?¡±


    Mo Ting lowered his head. His eyelashes were extremely long, attracting Chi Xiao¡¯s gaze. She looked down and saw his extremely pale lips. She couldn¡¯t help but swallow her saliva.


    Mo Ting smiled. ¡°You know my family¡¯s situation as well. You know my situation as well.¡±


    Chi Xiao understood immediately. ¡°So you want to fish out the person behind the scenes through acting?¡±


    As he spoke, she gently clapped his hands. ¡°Even if we wanted to find clues now, we won¡¯t be able to find them. Even if we do find them, they can still deny everything. Why not catch them in the act?¡±


    That was indeed the case. They had gone to look for the company¡¯s surveillance cameras yesterday. In the end, the surveillance room said that they had just cleaned out the footage two days ago. After that, whenever they would look for anything else, there would always be problems that prevented them from learning anything.


    It was so coincidental that Mo Ting suspected that there was a traitor in their family.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Chi Xiao curled her lips. ¡°I¡¯ll definitely help you with this. It¡¯s just acting. I¡¯m good at it..¡±

 Chapter 12

    By the time he returned to the Mo family, Mo Ting¡¯s face was already very pale. He was leaning weakly against the back of his chair, and it looked like he didn¡¯t even have the strength to cough anymore.


    The atmosphere of the entire Mo family visibly dropped with his return.


    Chi Xiao followed beside Mo Ting. As the members of the Mo family surrounded him, she was immediately pushed to the side.


    Chi Xiao was also happy to be free. She crossed her arms and looked at Mo Ting being surrounded by his relatives. For some reason, Chi Xiao could see the helplessness on Mo Ting¡¯s cold face.


    ¡°Miss Chi, may I carry the little master?¡± A nanny walked to Chi Xiao¡¯s side and said these words. However, without needing Chi Xiao to respond, she reached out to take Mo Han.


    Without batting an eyelid, she dodged the nanny¡¯s hand, ¡°No need. Han Han isn¡¯t heavy. I¡¯ll carry him.¡±


    The nanny withdrew her hand embarrassedly and glanced at the crowd.


    Unfortunately, the person that the nanny wanted to meet wasn¡¯t in the crowd.


    Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family should be at their own home right now. They had just made a scene in front of Mo Ting. Why would they come back to the old residence to make things worse?


    Elder Mo also trotted over with his walking stick. The old man¡¯s legs were not very agile, so it was obvious that he was very fond of Mo Ting.


    Facing Elder Mo, Mo Ting gave him a smile. However, this smile looked too pale, and looked a little weak and pitiful.


    ¡°What are you waiting for? Hurry up and send the eldest young master back to his room.¡± Elder Mo knocked his walking stick on the floor. ¡°Go and call Doctor Sun over.¡±


    Elder Mo was indeed the backbone of the entire Mo family. Under his orders, the entire Mo family started to move. Only when Mo Ting was hurriedly sent into his room did Su Ling have the time to look for Chi Xiao.


    Chi Xiao understood Su Ling¡¯s meaning and gestured for her to not speak for now. He led the people to a more private place. Chi Xiao then explained, ¡°This was planned by Mo Ting. After all, we don¡¯t have any leads on the person who poisoned him previously.¡±


    Su Ling was shocked. After screaming, she hurriedly lowered her voice and said, ¡°Isn¡¯t it very dangerous to do this?¡±


    If the person behind the scenes really seized power when Mo Ting was about to die of illness, then their family would no longer have a place in the entire Mo family.


    Although the other members of the Mo family seemed to hold Mo Ting¡¯s family in high esteem, Su Ling also knew that it was only superficial.


    Once Mo Ting lost power, those who had been punished by Mo Ting would quickly turn around and bite him. Those who were used to not sticking their heads out would also be afraid of Mo Ting and would not let him come into contact with power again.


    Su Ling was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. She paced back and forth in front of Chi Xiao for a few rounds. Suddenly, Su Ling reacted and asked, ¡°How is Han Han? What happened just now?¡±


    Mo Ting had rushed out of the house after receiving a phone call and ignored Su Ling¡¯s obstruction. It was only when his assistant called back that Su Ling found out that something had happened to Mo Han.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s heart warmed when she met Su Ling¡¯s concerned eyes. She had originally told her about what had happened just now, including Second Uncle Mo¡¯s scheme.


    Sure enough, Su Ling was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. She gritted her teeth so hard that they made cracking sounds.


    Chi Xiao looked at Su Ling and was really afraid that she would faint from anger.


    Fortunately, the commotion with Mo Ting had distracted Su Ling.


    Perhaps it was because she was prepared or because she was well-informed, Mo Ting¡¯s cousin sister, Mo Ning, brought a skinny man who dressed sloppily and had a french moustache. He looked like a hooligan and did not look like a decent man when he came to Mo Ting¡¯s room.


    Seeing Chi Xiao hiding at the side as if nothing had happened, Mo Ning frowned and glared at Chi Xiao.


    ¡°I really don¡¯t know what the elder is thinking. Why did he let my cousin marry such a thing?¡±


    Mo Ning pouted and put on a fawning smile. ¡°Grandfather, this is the doctor I brought.¡±


    Elder Mo was so angry that he blew on his beard. How did such a thing look like a doctor?


    However, before Elder Mo could scold him, the man cupped his hands in a weird manner and said, ¡°Hello, Elder Mo. I¡¯m Gui Jianchou¡¯s senior, Huo Yanwang. I¡¯ve been entrusted by Miss Mo Ning to come today to treat Mr. Mo¡­¡±


    Chi Xiao, who was watching from the side, could not swallow her saliva properly when she heard the man introduce himself. She coughed in an earth-shattering manner.


    Fortunately, Mo Ting¡¯s situation was too chaotic and no one was in the mood to pay attention to her.


    After she recovered, Chi Xiao focused her attention on Mo Ting¡¯s side.


    She didn¡¯t know what Huo Yanwang, who claimed to be her senior, had said, but it scared Elder Mo so much that he was stunned. He was also slightly respectful to that man.


    ¡°Since Elder Mo has already acknowledged my identity, I¡¯m going to check Mr. Mo¡¯s pulse.¡±


    Huo Yanwang pinched his beard and pretended to be reserved as he checked Mo Ting¡¯s pulse. Then, his expression became more and more serious. A moment later, he put down Mo Ting¡¯s hand and sighed, ¡°The house is not peaceful.¡±


    His words were said without any sense.. Elder Mo quickly asked, ¡°Whatc do you mean by that?¡±

 Chapter 13

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°What do I mean? Elder Mo, you should have some idea, so I won¡¯t say anything more.¡± Huo Yanwang glanced at Elder Mo with just the right amount of restraint. ¡°The focus now should be on how to cure Mr. Mo.¡±


    Elder Mo¡¯s heart skipped a beat. However, the situation was critical and he had no choice but to not think about it. He only said, ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then I¡¯ll let¡­ Huo Yanwang treat young Ting.¡±


    The person Mo Ning brought were given an important position. For a moment, she felt as though she had gained some glory. She immediately cleared her throat and said, ¡°Since the godly doctor wants to treat my cousin¡¯s illness, then the rest of you can leave, right?¡±


    Although she was talking about the rest of you, her eyes were staring coldly at Chi Xiao.


    As they were quite far away, Mo Ning could not see Chi Xiao¡¯s face clearly. All she knew was that this person was an ugly freak.


    Mo Jun agreed with Mo Ning¡¯s words. ¡°Yes, yes. Those who are not involved, please leave.¡±


    He felt nauseous just looking at Chi Xiao¡¯s face. The earlier he chased her away, the easier it would be for him to stop worrying.


    Chi Xiao was left out in front of everyone.


    ¡°You¡¯re asking me to leave?¡± Chi Xiao smiled and looked even uglier. ¡°I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s not appropriate. After all, I¡¯m Mo Ting¡¯s wife. In terms of status, I¡¯m naturally closer to him than this cousin.¡±


    Mo Ning felt that it was not right for her to say that and her face turned red.


    Instead, Mo Jun came up to protect Mo Ning and pointed at Chi Xiao¡¯s nose as he scolded, ¡°Who taught you to talk like that? Ning is older than you. You should call her more respectfully. Who allowed you to talk to her like that? Apologize quickly.¡±


    The more he spoke, the more satisfied Mo Jun became. He stared coldly at Chi Xiao¡¯s face and said, ¡°You¡¯re so ugly and yet you still came out to embarrass yourself. I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re thinking. How did the Chi family raise such a daughter?¡±


    ¡°Mo Jun!¡± Elder Mo knocked his walking stick on the floor hard and stared at Mo Jun with his sharp eyes.


    However, seeing that Mo Jun was being suppressed by him, yet his eyes were filled with anger and indignation, Elder Mo sighed. Mo Jun had been out of tune when he was young. Now that he was finally older, Elder Mo thought that he might have matured a little. Who knew that the older he was, the more undisciplined he would be.


    However, at least he still had some bottom line. He had been fooling around outside but did not bring any lives into the world. His son was still his only son.


    ¡°Your father-in-law is not very clear-headed. Don¡¯t get angry with him.¡± Su Ling softly comforted Chi Xiao. She felt her face burn from what Mo Jun had said just now. It was so embarrassing.


    Chi Xiao smiled gently. ¡°Of course I won¡¯t get angry. After all, he is Mo Ting¡¯s father.¡±


    It was one thing for her not to get angry, but it was another thing for Mo Jun to learn his lesson.


    Chi Xiao asked quietly, ¡°How does father usually treat Han Han?¡±


    Su Ling wanted to sigh when this matter was brought up. Mo Jun was a person who was neither good nor bad, and he still held Mo Ting in high regard. Usually, he was afraid that Mo Ting would be blinded by the girls outside, so he often personally took care of Mo Ting¡¯s life. However, it just so happened that¡­ Mo Ting brought back a child four years ago.


    He said it was his son.


    Mo Jun didn¡¯t believe it and sneakily went to the hospital to do a paternity test. The final result came out, and Mo Han was indeed Mo Ting¡¯s son.


    However, Mo Jun couldn¡¯t get over the hurdle in his heart. He always felt that Mo Han was brought back from outside. Even if it was his biological grandson, he was definitely not well-fed.


    Therefore, he wasn¡¯t good to Mo Han, but he wasn¡¯t bad either. Their relationship was neither salty nor indifferent, causing Su Ling to be anxious.


    Su Ling didn¡¯t answer, but Chi Xiao didn¡¯t need her to. Su Ling¡¯s expression had already explained everything. When Chi Xiao looked at Mo Jun again, there was already a deep meaning in her eyes.


    Chi Xiao felt comfortable when she saw Mo Han lying on her shoulder and sleeping with his face flushed red. She hugged Mo Han¡¯s small body tenderly and thought to herself, with her around, she would never let anyone have the chance to hurt Mo Han in the future.


    On the other side, ¡°Huo Yanwang¡± was already preparing to perform acupuncture. At this moment, he was communicating one last time with Elder Mo.


    Perhaps because long illness turns the patient into a doctor, Elder Mo had some understanding of the human body¡¯s acupuncture points. After asking ¡°Huo Yanwang¡± which acupuncture points he wanted to perform acupuncture on, his heart felt a little strange.


    In the plan given by ¡°Huo Yanwang,¡± some of the acupuncture points were conflicting. In fact, many of the acupuncture points had nothing to do with Mo Ting¡¯s illness.


    With this thought in mind, Elder Mo looked at Huo Yanwang with more scrutiny. After a slight pause, Elder Mo asked again, ¡°I wonder if Gui Jianchou is doing well?¡±


    The hand that Huo Yanwang used to hold the needle paused slightly and he asked with a dry smile, ¡°Elder Mo, why are asking about my junior? My junior is naturally very well now. He just went on a trip to Sanya a few days ago.¡±


    Just how sharp was Elder Mo¡¯s gaze?


    From Huo Yanwang¡¯s actions, Elder Mo quickly realized that something was amiss. He leaned on his walking stick and said heavily, ¡°Who exactly are you? I don¡¯t believe that you¡¯re Gui Jianchou¡¯s senior.¡±


    These words struck Huo Yanwang¡¯s head like thunder..

 Chapter 14

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Tell me, who the hell are you!¡±


    Elder Mo¡¯s voice was so cold that the needle in Huo Yanwang¡¯s hand fell to the ground. However, Huo Yanwang no longer had the time to care about the needle. He just stared at Elder Mo in a daze.


    Then, under Elder Mo¡¯s imposing gaze, his legs slowly went limp and he fell to the ground.


    The truth was already clear. Elder Mo then shifted his gaze onto Mo Ning.


    Mo Jun, who had just spoken up for Mo Ning, felt his face hurt.


    ¡°Grandfather, I don¡¯t know anything. I was tricked too. I was just too anxious to save my cousin, that¡¯s why I called him here without verifying who he was.¡±


    Mo Ning hurriedly explained. When she met Elder Mo¡¯s scrutinizing eyes, cold sweat started to form on her forehead.


    Elder Mo snorted coldly. The matter was resolved just like that.


    Not long after, Mo Ting¡¯s royal doctor rushed over and shut everyone outside the door. He hurriedly started to treat Mo Ting.


    ¡°Who knows what a certain someone was thinking, introducing some kind of random doctor.¡±


    ¡°Exactly. They must be crazy to want benefits, right?¡±


    Outside the door, the members of the Mo family were criticizing Mo Ning one after another. It could be said that she was as embarrassed as she was just now.


    Mo Ning looked around hatefully. Suddenly, she looked at Chi Xiao who was watching the show from the side with her sharp eyes and said in a high-pitched voice, ¡°It¡¯s you. It¡¯s all because of you that my cousin went out regardless of his health. It¡¯s all because of you that something happened to him.¡±


    Perhaps everyone had a common trait. When they were being criticized, they were all willing to criticize another person to relieve their pressure.


    Mo Ning was like this now. The more she said, the more she felt that what she said made sense. The more she looked at Chi Xiao, the more smug she became, ¡°It¡¯s all because you had nothing better to do that led to this situation. If my cousin dies, you have to die with him.¡±


    Mo Jun, who was standing beside Mo Ning, also felt that Mo Ning¡¯s words were very reasonable. He wanted to comment on it several times, but when his gaze landed on Su Ling, who was beside Chi Xiao, he held it back.


    Su Ling was clearly the one who rushed forward without thinking. What was wrong with Su Ling this time?


    Could it be that there was something about Chi Xiao that he did not know?


    Just as Mo Ning was cursing, Mo Han rubbed her eyes and rested her head on Chi Xiao¡¯s shoulder. His small body swayed a little.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Mo Han made a sound unconsciously. Then, he slowly opened his eyes and yawned with his mouth open.


    ¡°Mom, is it morning?¡±


    Mo Han¡¯s voice was not loud, but it was so strange that everyone in the Mo family who were gathered in the hall could hear it clearly.


    After hearing his words, everyone¡¯s expression changed. They knew how difficult Mo Han was to deal with. Mo Han didn¡¯t even care about them, but now he was calling Chi Xiao ¡°Mother?¡±


    Immediately, everyone¡¯s gaze towards Chi Xiao changed.


    This woman was ugly, but her schemes weren¡¯t bad either.


    Otherwise, how could she have dealt with Mo Han so quickly?


    Chi Xiao smiled gently and patted Mo Han¡¯s head. She said gently, ¡°It¡¯s dawn now. We¡¯re home. Have you slept enough, Han Han?¡±


    Mo Han lay on Chi Xiao for a while more before he prepared to come down. After regaining his strength, Mo Han looked like a fair and tender little bun again. ¡°I¡¯ve already woken up. Where¡¯s Dad? I saw him before I fell asleep.¡±


    The moment he mentioned his father, it was as if he had flipped a switch. The living room became noisy again. Mo Ning was still saying that she was not at fault and that it was an accident.


    Chi Xiao took the opportunity to squat down and asked Mo Han who was curious, ¡°Han Han, is there anyone here who doesn¡¯t treat you very well?¡±


    Mo Han tilted his head and didn¡¯t understand what the standard of ¡®not well¡¯ was.


    ¡°Is there anyone who treats Han Han badly and has no patience, and doesn¡¯t look at you kindly?¡±


    Mo Han thought for a moment, ¡°Other than Great-Grandpa, Dad, and Grandma, everyone treats Han Han badly.¡±


    Although she had expected it, Chi Xiao¡¯s heart was filled with hatred when she heard that. She looked coldly at the noisy crowd and asked coldly, ¡°Is that so?¡±


    Mo Han nodded vigorously and rubbed his stomach. ¡°Mom, Han Han is hungry.¡±


    Chi Xiao then brought Mo Han to the restaurant. Before they left, she even told Su Ling to take good care of Mo Ting.


    How could Su Ling not be happy when she saw that Chi Xiao was concerned about her son?


    Chi Xiao was good to her son, good to her grandson, and she might even be able to cure her son¡¯s illness. Now that Su Ling was 100% satisfied with Chi Xiao, so what if she was ugly?


    So what if she was ugly? It would save her the trouble of seducing other people.


    With this thought in mind, Su Ling looked at Mo Ning who had a delicate face in the crowd and scoffed in disdain.


    This was an example. Mo Ning was a promiscuous and fickle person. A few years ago, Mo Ning¡¯s husband had to come home every day to complain about Mo Ning¡¯s actions. In the end, what could he do?


    Wasn¡¯t it because Mo Ning couldn¡¯t control herself and the two of them had to get a divorce?

 Chapter 15

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The doctor went in and treated Mo Ting with all his might for two hours. He took off his mask tiredly before he pushed the door open and came out.


    Facing Elder Mo¡¯s expectant gaze, the doctor sighed and shook his head. ¡°This time, the eldest young master has hurt his foundation. We still have to do our best to find Gui Jianchou. He¡¯s probably the only one who can cure the eldest young master.¡±


    Elder Mo only felt that the little hope that had just emerged had been snuffed out in an instant. His gaze towards Mo Ting¡¯s room was also filled with sorrow. ¡°Could it be that the heavens want to destroy our Mo Family?¡±


    Although the Mo family was flourishing and had countless juniors, the only person who could support the Mo family and not let it end up in a dead end was Mo Ting.


    Elder Mo sighed. His entire person seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.


    ¡°Elder, what if we can find the miracle doctor Gui Jianchou?¡± The doctor could not bear it as he suggested this unlikely hypothesis with much difficulty.


    ¡°If we could find him, we would have found him long ago. We offered thirty million to invite the miracle doctor, but we were ignored.¡± At this point, Mo Jun¡¯s heart was filled with dissatisfaction.


    He was just a doctor. The Mo family offered such a high price, yet the doctor didn¡¯t even look at them. Who knows what kind of shady business the doctor was doing.


    Fortunately, Chi Xiao had brought Mo Han to eat something. Otherwise, she would have lamented being dragged into it all.


    After the doctor instructed to keep Mo Ting¡¯s surroundings quiet, he left.


    The members of the Mo family who were here also tactfully dispersed. Elder Mo supported himself with his walking stick and went upstairs with Mo Jun¡¯s help. When he walked to the stairs, he suddenly remembered that on the day Chi Xiao had just arrived, Mo Ting had also woken up, so he asked Mo Jun to call Chi Xiao back, and he asked Chi Xiao to accompany Mo Ting.


    ¡°Father!¡± Mo Jun could not understand why Elder Mo had a special liking for an ugly woman like Chi Xiao, who came from an average family background.


    Elder Mo looked coldly at his own son, who did not have much foresight, who also thought that he was smart. He said bitterly, ¡°Young Ting¡¯s situation is dangerous now. We cannot give up even the slightest chance. Do you understand?¡±


    Mo Jun really wanted to say that he did not understand, but when he looked at Elder Mo¡¯s gaze, he could only nod and surrender.


    Chi Xiao accompanied Mo Han to finish eating dessert before she was called to Mo Ting¡¯s room by the servants.


    The servants of the Mo family were already looking slightly respectful towards Chi Xiao. However, their words were full of sarcasm towards her appearance.


    ¡°Young Madam must be having a hard time looking like this. She has to hide her appearance wherever she goes.¡±


    ¡°Our young master is really good.¡±


    ¡°Young Madam, Don¡¯t blame for speaking out of turn. I¡¯ve been working in the Mo family for more than ten years and feel sorry for the eldest young master. That¡¯s why I¡¯m worried about your appearance.¡±


    Chi Xiao followed behind the maid with a smile all the way until the maid grumbled to the door of Mo Ting¡¯s room.


    Chi Xiao then opened her mouth and said, ¡°Having worked here for more than ten years, have you forgotten your identity?¡±


    She was still smiling, but the maid¡¯s hair stood on end. When the door in front of her closed, the maid realized that the fabric on her back had been soaked in sweat.


    But¡­ it was scary. Their young madam was too scary.


    Leaning against the door, Chi Xiao was satisfied to hear the maid roll and crawl away. She curled her lips in satisfaction.


    She walked to Mo Ting¡¯s bed and looked at his pale face and the weak look with his eyes closed. She said with a hint of regret, ¡°It looks like the almighty Young Master Mo is really weak.¡±


    As she said this, she sneakily whispered into Mo Ting¡¯s ear, ¡°So weak that I want to protect you.¡±


    Having had enough fun, Chi Xiao saw that Mo Ting still had no reaction. She sat beside Mo Ting¡¯s bed, stretched out a finger, and pushed Mo Ting. ¡°Alright, there¡¯s no one else around. Stop pretending.¡±


    At this moment, Mo Ting slowly opened his eyes. Those eyes were too clear and innocent. Chi Xiao could only feel her heart faintly feel as if it had been hit by something. Her ears were also reluctantly red.


    Mo Ting quietly looked at Chi Xiao. Chi Xiao silently averted his gaze, and to avoid his line of sight, she used the excuse of tidying up the silver needles left behind by the fake doctor.


    However, it was obvious that Mo Ting was not willing to let Chi Xiao go just like that. He quietly looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s back and asked softly, ¡°How¡¯s it going outside?¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s voice sounded quite normal. ¡°I think everything is going according to your plan. Don¡¯t worry.¡±


    ¡°My plan? It¡¯s a pity that you were not in my plan,¡± Mo Ting said regretfully. ¡°But now that you are here, I feel that this plan is more suitable.¡±


    Chi Xiao was caught off guard when she heard such a vague confession. Her hand paused.


    When Chi Xiao turned her head, she saw Mo Ting looking at her with a smile. That smile coupled with that face made it difficult for Chi Xiao to even breathe.


    She coughed and forced herself to wake up from Mo Ting¡¯s handsome face. ¡°You should smile less in the future. It¡¯s not good for your body to smile all the time.¡±


    Especially¡­ when he smiled like this.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s heart itched. She stared at Mo Ting for a while before shifting her gaze away. This time, Chi Xiao¡¯s face was completely red. She was bashful and did not look like the person she used to be..

 Chapter 16

    Chi Xiao felt that she was almost bewitched by Mo Ting¡¯s beauty. It was not easy for her to turn her eyes away, but her mind kept repeating Mo Ting¡¯s every frown and smile like a movie.


    It could be said to be poisonous.


    ¡°After this, are you confident that you can cure me?¡±


    Mo Ting did not seem to notice it and continued to talk to Chi Xiao with a normal expression.


    She rubbed her face and almost rubbed the scar off. Chi Xiao did not dare to move and only said, ¡°Of course I¡¯m confident. It¡¯s just that this process will take a long time. You should be mentally prepared.¡±


    Chi Xiao paused after saying this.


    When did she agree to treat Mo Ting¡¯s illness?


    How did she¡­


    She looked at Mo Ting again and saw a smile on the corner of his mouth. It looked like his plan had succeeded.


    But she had to admit.


    Mo Ting¡¯s crafty look made her heart flutter even more.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s eyes widened. What was wrong with her? Could it be that Mo Ting had poisoned her?


    Had she been poisoned?


    She was thinking about all sorts of things, but her hands were obediently giving Mo Ting acupuncture and burning moxa for moxibustion.


    Mo Ting¡¯s forehead was full of cold sweat, but he said, ¡°According to our plan, the person who wanted to harm me will soon be exposed.¡±


    Gradually, Chi Xiao seemed to hear that something was wrong. She stared at Mo Ting for a moment and asked, ¡°Why is it our plan? It is your own plan from the beginning to the end. I am just helping out.¡±


    Mo Ting smiled and nodded, ¡°Yes, I forced you.¡±


    Chi Xiao felt uncomfortable when Mo Ting said that. She said awkwardly, ¡°You can¡¯t say that.¡±


    She felt more and more that this was not like her. Chi Xiao stared at the back of Mo Ting¡¯s head and suddenly recalled the scene four years ago before she gave birth to Mo Han.


    At that time, she had also met someone. That person was also refined and handsome. She could not take her eyes off him.


    Following that, the two of them developed a relationship. However, that person suddenly disappeared after that. Even with Chi Xiao¡¯s current power, it was difficult to find him. That person¡¯s appearance was like a dream that Chi Xiao had.


    However, Mo Han¡¯s existence had indeed told Chi Xiao that it was not a dream.


    Mo Ting was not that person.


    Chi Xiao knew clearly that they were completely different in terms of looks. That person was too refined and was not as aggressive as Mo Ting.


    However, they still had some similarities.


    For example¡­ when Chi Xiao met him, she became unlike herself.


    Right now, Chi Xiao only felt that her heart was in a mess, like a ball of twine jumbled up with countless knots. It was extremely annoying.


    ¡°Oh right, how¡¯s that swindler who claimed to be the senior of Gui Jianchou?¡±


    Mo Ting was too good at seizing opportunities. He would always talk about serious matters when Chi Xiao was about to explode and divert her attention.


    Chi Xiao was also happy to have her attention diverted. Recalling the scene where the ¡°Huo Yanwang¡± was taken away by the police, she actually burst out laughing, ¡°What else can be done? Of course, he¡¯ll be brought to justice. That¡¯s why I have to thank the modern law.¡±


    At this point, Chi Xiao was still a little curious. ¡°Do you think Mo Ning was too stupid to find such a person, or did she do it on purpose?¡±


    What Mo Ning did was indeed not very smart. Chi Xiao only thought of two possibilities. Either she was stupid or she was bad.


    Mo Ting could hear the hidden meaning in Chi Xiao¡¯s words and laughed as well. He did not feel that there was anything wrong with slandering his cousin behind her back, ¡°That cousin of mine has always been like this since she was young. She always thinks that she¡¯s the only smart person in the world and everyone else is stupid, but no matter what she does, she always doesn¡¯t do it very well. It¡¯s really a headache.¡±


    This was also an answer to Chi Xiao¡¯s question. If Mo Ning was not bad, then she must be really stupid.


    Chi Xiao was amused by Mo Ting¡¯s tone and her movements became gentler. After a while, she stopped the moxibustion and said, ¡°Leave the needle for twenty-five minutes. You can take this time to sleep.¡±


    Mo Ting shook his head and said, ¡°I lie down like this every day that my head is dizzy.¡±


    Chi Xiao thought about it and agreed. She searched for the acupuncture points on Mo Ting¡¯s head and massaged them gently. ¡°This is used to relieve fatigue. It¡¯s a little painful. Bear with it.¡±


    Mo Ting only felt Chi Xiao¡¯s soft little hands massaging his head. His heart was suddenly uncharacteristically satisfied.


    It was exactly the same as back then.


    Perhaps Chi Xiao¡¯s massage was too comfortable, Mo Ting actually fell asleep unknowingly. His thick and long eyelashes closed together like two small fans.


    Chi Xiao stared at Mo Ting¡¯s sleeping posture without moving. After a moment, her face turned red again.


    Could it be that she was really mesmerized by beauty?


    She had never realized that she was such a person who blushed so much.


    Chi Xiao shook her head silently. She let go of the hand that was rubbing Mo Ting¡¯s head and slowly got up. She took out a miniature listening device from her pocket and stuffed it under Mo Ting¡¯s bed.


    ¡°I¡¯m doing this for your own good. I¡¯m not interested in your private life.¡±


    After saying this, Chi Xiao covered her face helplessly.. Why did she feel like she was a duck that had been cooked just now? Was she just being stubborn?

 Chapter 17

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhu Ting was an ordinary member of the Mo Group. She went to and from work every day, day after day. One could almost see her whole life at a glance.


    Her family wasn¡¯t very well off either. In a big city like Beijing, Zhu Ting¡¯s salary could barely support herself. As for getting luxury items, she could forget about them.


    However, recently, the employees of the company noticed that Zhu Ting seemed to be different.


    First of all, she seemed to be more confident.


    In the morning, when Zhu Ting entered the office, she even greeted her colleagues, which was rare. The smile on her face also became more frequent. Even this smile wasn¡¯t the timid and shy smile she used to have.


    After Zhu Ting left the pantry happily in her high heels, her colleagues quickly gathered together and wondered what had happened to her. Why did she suddenly change?


    ¡°Do you think that Zhu Ting won the lottery?¡±


    ¡°Or maybe she went into a side business?¡±


    ¡°Side business¡± sounded a little ambiguous. The colleagues laughed when they heard it. Someone even pointed at this person and praised him for his talent.


    ¡°Speaking of which, did you see Zhu Ting¡¯s clothes? They are not cheap.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m starting to suspect that Zhu Ting has hooked up with some higher-ups. Do you know that Zhu Ting¡¯s proposal yesterday was nonsense, and in the end, she was praised by the team leader?¡±


    When they heard this, their colleagues were all talking at once, wanting this person to say more. However, before this person could speak, a young voice came from outside, ¡°You guys aren¡¯t working. What are you talking about here? Are you having a tea party?¡±


    Mo Xuan had just arrived at the company when he heard the discussions. He was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating. He quickly came out to stop them before they could say anything against him.


    This person obviously did not expect that he would be heard by the leader when he was speaking ill in front of his colleagues. He hurriedly put down his cup and walked out with his head lowered.


    Mo Xuan only heaved a sigh of relief after everyone in the pantry had left.


    There was indeed an improper relationship between him and Zhu Ting. He could not reveal this matter now. Otherwise, wouldn¡¯t he be further and further away from the center of power of the Mo Family?


    With this thought in mind, Mo Xuan was even considering whether or not he should break up with Zhu Ting.


    However, when he passed by Zhu Ting¡¯s office and saw Zhu Ting¡¯s red and tender little face smiling at him wholeheartedly, Mo Xuan felt his heart speed up again. He could not control himself and immediately understood that he could not break up with her for the time being.


    He nodded at Zhu Ting without leaving a trace. Mo Xuan returned to his office and looked at the proposals that had been rejected one after another on his desk. He couldn¡¯t help but feel a headache.


    Ever since Mo Ting fell sick, all of the Mo Group¡¯s matters were decided by the board of directors.


    When Mo Ting was around, it was mostly because he was a member of the Mo family that as long as his proposals were at least decent, they would almost always be approved.


    However, now that it was the board of directors, none of the proposals that he had submitted were approved.


    Sitting sprawled on the boss¡¯ chair, Mo Xuan actually began to miss Mo Ting.


    Picking up a proposal on the table regarding the business street, Mo Xuan felt that it was perfect in terms of both the details and the expected revenue. However, for some reason, this proposal was rejected, and it was labeled as unrealistic.


    Mo Xuan was even more annoyed. The more annoyed he was, the more he wanted to smoke a cigarette.


    Before he reached the smoking room, Mo Xuan heard his little lover, Zhu Ting, talking on the phone with her family.


    ¡°Yes, yes, don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m doing quite well here. No one is making things difficult for me. Yes, don¡¯t worry. Yes, my boyfriend is very good to me.¡±


    Mo Xuan was slightly satisfied. Regardless of whether she was being sincere or not, she had given him some face.


    Just when Mo Xuan wanted to appear and give Zhu Ting a surprise, Zhu Ting actually picked up another phone call.


    At this time, Zhu Ting had already changed her tone. There was some complacency in her laughter. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Won¡¯t it be easy for me to take Mo Xuan, that idiot rich second generation, down?¡±


    ¡°Alright, alright. I know that Mo Xuan isn¡¯t the target. The final target is the actual person in charge of the Mo family. Mo Ting, how many times have you said that?¡±


    The other party seemed to have said something again. Zhu Ting was already very impatient. Even her tone had turned cold, ¡°Alright, I know. That Idiot Mo Xuan still thinks that I¡¯m innocent and adorable and can¡¯t get enough of me. At most, when I break up with him, I¡¯ll say a few things and let him think that I¡¯m forced to be together with Mo Ting? When the time comes, I can also sow discord between the two cousins who don¡¯t get along.¡±


    The other side seemed to be finally satisfied. Zhu Ting didn¡¯t say anything and hung up the phone.


    After staying here for a while, Zhu Ting steadily switched to a weak and pitiful image. She lowered her head and timidly returned to the office.


    She didn¡¯t notice Mo Xuan who was standing at the corner, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth so hard that it made creaking sounds.


    Mo Xuan did not know why he had been so calm just now as he watched his woman plot to cuckold him.


    After a long while, he sneered and left..

 Chapter 18

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mo Xuan was a little distracted for the entire day. Whether it was being cuckolded or actually being lied to by that stupid woman.


    Looking at the proposal in front of him, Mo Xuan was furious. He swept his gaze across the table and the documents on the table fell to the ground.


    Before Mo Xuan could get angry, his phone rang.


    ¡°Hello? Who is it?¡± Mo Xuan was not in a good mood.


    The person on the other end was a woman. From her voice, she sounded like a young woman. ¡°Second Young Master Mo, you sound so angry. What happened?¡±


    Mo Xuan choked. He wondered what it had to do with that person? He did not even know who the person on the other end was.


    Before Mo Xuan could answer, the person on the other end said, ¡°You are also a pitiful person. You were actually fooled by a slut. Sigh, in the end, it is also because you are not the first successor of the Mo family.¡±


    Mo Xuan¡¯s breathing suddenly stopped.


    She hit the nail on the head. These words hit the bottom of his heart.


    Mo Xuan was still brooding over the fact that he was not the first successor of the Mo family. He had also tried his best to bring down Mo Ting and take his place.


    ¡°In the end, it is because he does not have enough power. If it was Mo Ting, would that woman dare to do this?¡± The other side continued to fan the flames. Her voice was like a hook, making Mo Xuan¡¯s heart itch.


    ¡°What do you mean? I¡¯ve never thought of becoming the head of the Mo family.¡±


    The person on the other end seemed to have expected Mo Xuan¡¯s reply. Hearing this, she smiled lightly. ¡°Yes, you are the kindest. You would never do such a treacherous thing. However, are you really okay with it?¡±


    Mo Xuan seemed to have been bewitched as he held his phone in a daze. He listened to the person on the other end and said, ¡°Are you really willing to see Mo Ting give up nothing while getting everything that you want? Money, power, beauty, and the attention of Elder Mo, all while you can only live like a pitiful wretch, relying on Mo Ting¡¯s charity.¡±


    These words could not be described as malicious.


    ¡°Enough, don¡¯t say another word! Don¡¯t say anything more!¡±


    The person on the other end insisted on continuing. Her voice became softer and softer. ¡°Think about it. If you have power, will there be anything you want that you can¡¯t get? When that time comes, you can step on Mo Ting. Life and death will be under your control.¡±


    Mo Xuan¡¯s breathing became even more rapid. His face was red and his ears were too. The hand that was holding the phone was trembling slightly. After a long while, Mo Xuan finally calmed down and asked softly, ¡°What intentions do you have by saying all this?¡±


    When the person on the other side saw that she had achieved her goal, she said in a gentle voice, ¡°I will naturally help you achieve your goal by saying all this. How about it? Do you want to cooperate?¡±


    The dazzling sunlight shone on Mo Xuan¡¯s body, causing him to break out in cold sweat for no reason. Listening to the other party¡¯s plan, Mo Xuan was terrified, but at the same time, he felt that this was a good method.


    His rationality gradually became thin under the temptation of benefits.


    Finally, Mo Xuan leaned against the back of the chair. He heard himself say word by word, ¡°Okay, let¡¯s cooperate.¡±


    The other end of the phone hung up after saying a few more words.


    Mo Xuan looked at the reflection of himself on the computer screen. His appearance was about half similar to Mo Ting¡¯s. His face was cold and he didn¡¯t speak. He looked more like Mo Ting.


    But he wasn¡¯t.


    ¡°I will replace Mo Ting and become the new leader of the Mo family.¡±


    In the middle of the afternoon, the assistant stuck his head out through the half-body glass window and saw Mo Xuan tidying his hair in front of the computer as if he had been injected with stimulants. His heart trembled and he slowly sat back down while touching his heart.


    It was too scary. Could President Mo have been possessed?


    * *


    Chi Xiao was pushing Mo Ting as they walked in the courtyard of the Mo family. The warm sun was shining on Mo Ting¡¯s body.


    ¡°It¡¯s a good thing to bask in the sun. Look at your white skin. It¡¯s obvious that you lack calcium.¡± Chi Xiao mumbled as she found a seat and sat down.


    Mo Ting blinked his eyes. He didn¡¯t quite understand the relationship between white skin and calcium deficiency.


    ¡°Are you going to have another relapse in half a month?¡±


    Mo Ting softly acknowledged and turned his handsome face towards Chi Xiao. ¡°It¡¯s also the time to be critically ill.¡±


    Chi Xiao ridiculed him without leaving a trace. ¡°You have to be careful. Don¡¯t scare your grandfather too much.¡±


    As she said this, Chi Xiao felt a little strange. ¡°I feel like your father and you aren¡¯t close. Is there some conflict between the two of you?¡± As she said this, Chi Xiao even sighed a little. ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on with your father. Seeing that you¡¯re seriously ill, I can¡¯t tell if he¡¯s anxious or not.¡±


    Hearing this, Mo Ting chuckled and said gently, ¡°Indeed, we¡¯re not close.¡±


    As he spoke, his voice suddenly turned cold. ¡°It¡¯s just a very clich¨¦ story. Before my father got married, he had a true love, but his true love was an ordinary person. My grandfather broke up the couple and insisted that my father marry my mother. After that, he had me.¡±


    Chi Xiao thought for a moment and asked,¡± Is your father still attached to that true love?¡±


    Mo Ting sneered. ¡°Yes, it has never been broken. That woman is so obedient. She has never done anything funny in front of me.¡±


    Chi Xiao paused. She placed her finger on Mo Ting¡¯s wheelchair and tapped it twice. ¡°I don¡¯t know if you¡¯ve heard that a dog that bites people¡­ doesn¡¯t bark.¡±


    ¡°Yes, so the dog has to be tied up properly. You can¡¯t just leave it outside and let it walk around. Is this the one?¡± Mo Ting placed his hand on Chi Xiao¡¯s and closed his eyes comfortably..

 Chapter 19

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    When Mo Ting¡¯s hand touched hers, Chi Xiao¡¯s body stiffened slightly. After a while, he said, ¡°Yes, we must nip the danger in the bud.¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Xiao¡¯s phone rang.


    ¡°Boss, there¡¯s movement from Mo Xuan¡¯s side.¡±


    Jin Mao¡¯s voice came from the other side. With some excitement, he said, ¡°Boss, there was an anonymous phone call to Mo Xuan. She said some rather provocative words.¡±


    ¡°We followed the location and chased after him. He¡¯s at an uncompleted building.¡±


    Chi Xiao paused and asked in return, ¡°Uncompleted building?¡±


    Jin Mao replied, ¡°Yes, I searched the surveillance cameras around the uncompleted building again. In the past two days, I didn¡¯t find anyone going over, nor did I find anyone coming out. Therefore, I suspect that that person didn¡¯t leave or use some other technology to replace the surveillance cameras.¡±


    Chi Xiao listened to Jin Mao¡¯s words and her expression slowly became serious. ¡°Continue investigating. How¡¯s Mo Xuan?¡±


    ¡°Mo Xuan¡¯s condition is a little strange. He seems to have been incited by that person and wants to compete with Young Master Mo. However, he doesn¡¯t seem to care too much. Right now, Mo Xuan is looking for trouble with a female employee.¡±


    ¡°Looking for trouble with a female employee?¡± Chi Xiao was surprised.


    Mo Xuan was finally incited. Instead of looking for Mo Ting, he went to deal with a female employee?


    Did that female employee dig up the Mo family¡¯s ancestral grave?


    The sound of typing came from the Jin Mao¡¯s end. ¡°That female employee and Mo Xuan have a somewhat improper relationship.¡±


    Zhu Ting¡¯s recent days had not been easy at all.


    The colleagues around her were not very close to her because of her publicity a few days ago. The team leader, who had taken good care of her, also often looked for trouble with her these two days.


    Thus, Zhu Ting was entrusted by her colleagues to deliver the materials to the team leader.


    Her colleague said it in a pleasant manner, ¡°The team leader values you the most. It is more appropriate for you to deliver these materials. Please help me.¡±


    Zhu Ting had no way to refuse.


    With the materials in hand, Zhu Ting walked to the door of the team leader¡¯s office. She prepared herself mentally before knocking on the door and entering. However, the moment she entered, she was scolded by the team leader.


    ¡°Won¡¯t you wait until I say you can enter when you knock on the door? Don¡¯t you have any manners?¡±


    For the sake of her future plans, Zhu Ting had no choice but to lower her head and apologize to the team leader.


    Only then did the team leader¡¯s expression become a little better as he asked, ¡°Speak, what¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Zhu Ting placed the materials on the team leader¡¯s desk and said gently, ¡°These are the materials that you want. I¡¯ve brought them.¡±


    She inadvertently took the initiative to show her enthusiasm.


    The team leader glanced at Zhu Ting from the corner of his eyes. He picked up the materials, flipped through them, and said coldly, ¡°Do you think that because you and Second Young Master Mo are very close, we have to spoil you?¡±


    Zhu Ting shook her head like a little rabbit, and her eyes turned red immediately.


    However, the team leader didn¡¯t buy it at all. He sneered and said, ¡°Remember your duty. Don¡¯t lose your job because of some thoughts that you shouldn¡¯t have. It¡¯s not worth it, don¡¯t you think so?¡±


    Zhu Ting felt a little embarrassed. She felt that she had lost all her face.


    The team leader didn¡¯t say anything more and waved his hand to signal Zhu Ting to leave.


    After confirming that she had left, the team leader made a call to Mo Xuan.


    When the call was picked up, the team leader nodded and bowed. ¡°President Mo, the matter has been settled. I have already told Zhu Ting following your instructions.¡±


    Mo Xuan nodded and hung up.


    The more Zhu Ting thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. Previously, the team leader had clearly been very attentive to her because of her relationship with Mo Xuan. What was the meaning of this now?


    Could it be that there was something wrong with Mo Xuan?


    Feeling uneasy, Zhu Ting called Mo Xuan. After the call was connected, Zhu Ting frowned and acted coquettishly in a sad manner. ¡°Xuan Dear, our team leader is so strict.¡±


    Her voice was sweet and oiled, as if she had applied a hundred layers of butter.


    However, on the other end of the line, Mo Xuan did not feel any heartache at all. Instead, he replied faintly, ¡°Huh?¡±


    Zhu Ting felt even more uneasy. Her eyes stared at one spot without focus. ¡°Xuan Dear, can you help me?¡±


    The person on the other end seemed to smile and asked her, ¡°How do you want me to help you?¡±


    Once these words were said, Zhu Ting did not know what to say. For a moment, she was at a loss. After that, she reacted to Mo Xuan¡¯s words like she was in a trance. In the end, she did not even know how to hang up the phone.


    Zhu Ting bit her lips. She did not understand why the fish that she had raised was suddenly like this.


    Could it be that her fish pond had been blown up and the fish had escaped?


    The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. Zhu Ting called the person who had set her up with Mo Xuan, but the number was unavailable.


    Zhu Ting paused. She nervously kept calling that number, but in the end, she got nothing.


    When Zhu Ting calmed down and retraced the events that had happened during this period, she realized that she might have been schemed against.


    The owner of that number, the person who had seduced her into cheating on Mo Xuan, had done it on purpose!


    She had deliberately stirred up her vanity, deliberately made her dissatisfied with Mo Xuan, and wanted the more powerful Mo Ting.


    Perhaps she had also called that day on purpose, in order to create evidence and hand it over to Mo Xuan!

 Chapter 20 - Zhu Ting

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    But why?


    She was just an ordinary staff member. Why did they target her?


    Zhu Ting bit her nails nervously and paced back and forth in the corridor. It was only when the people around her pointed at her that she regained some of her rationality.


    ¡°Miss Zhu Ting?¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s assistant had been waiting beside Zhu Ting¡¯s work desk. When he saw Zhu Ting coming over, he stretched out his hand and said in a gentlemanly manner, ¡°Miss Zhu Ting, please follow me. The president is looking for you.¡±


    ¡°President? Young Master Mo?¡±


    After receiving the affirmative answer from the assistant, Zhu Ting felt her legs go weak.


    It wasn¡¯t because she was scared or excited, but because of the unreal feeling of having a bright future ahead of her. Just now, Zhu Ting felt that she had fallen into hell, but now she felt that she might directly ascend to heaven.


    In the car, Zhu Ting sorted out her messy thoughts and confirmed what tone she should use when she saw Mo Ting later, and how she should put on airs. Then, she got off the car under the instruction of the assistant.


    In front of her was the Mo family¡¯s old mansion. The spacious courtyard was filled with layers of flowers, and behind it was a group of tall and imposing buildings.


    The main house of the old mansion was occupied by Elder Mo and Mo Jun¡¯s family, while the rest of the people lived in the small villa behind the old mansion.


    Zhu Ting¡¯s eyes were burning with desire as she kept encouraging herself. She was determined to become Mo Ting¡¯s wife, and everything here would be hers in the future.


    After a long while, Zhu Ting finally started to move under the urging of the assistant.


    Step by step, she walked into the old house like a country bumpkin who had never seen the outside world.


    There were many nannies in the old house, and they were busy making arrangements.


    Suddenly, a woman with a graceful figure and an ugly face appeared in Zhu Ting¡¯s sight.


    There were rough scars on that woman¡¯s face, and that face was both terrifying and disgusting.


    After the woman left, Zhu Ting asked her assistant, ¡°Who was that person? Why¡­¡±


    The assistant replied respectfully, ¡°That¡¯s the first young madam.¡±


    ¡°First¡­ first young madam?¡±


    Zhu Ting realized that the first young madam was the wife of Mo Ting?


    With a stiff face, Zhu Ting asked, ¡°When did President Mo get married? Why haven¡¯t I heard about it?¡±


    The assistant said, ¡°President Mo is keeping a low profile now. There might be a wedding in a while. Miss Zhu can come and attend it then.¡±


    Zhu Ting was not interested in visiting the surroundings anymore. Her heart was in a mess. One moment, she was thinking that Mo Ting got married. She might not have a chance. The next moment, she was thinking about how ugly that woman was, and she would definitely replace that woman.


    Her mind was in a mess, and she was in a mess.


    The assistant led Zhu Ting to the room where Mo Ting was. Mo Ting had probably just finished eating. His entire body was filled with a lazy feeling. The moment Zhu Ting entered, she could see Mo Ting¡¯s handsome face and muscular arms.


    However, the strange thing was that Mo Ting was actually sitting in a wheelchair.


    Mo Ting turned the wheelchair and faced Zhu Ting. He nodded and said, ¡°Get Miss Zhu a chair.¡±


    The assistant then diligently went to get a chair for Zhu Ting and placed it across from Mo Ting. She blushed and sat down.


    Mo Ting was sitting not too far away from her. Zhu Ting swallowed her saliva. She felt that Mo Ting was much stronger than Mo Xuan, who was an idiot.


    Before Zhu Ting could say anything, the door was opened and the extremely ugly woman she saw just now walked in.


    The only part of her face that could be seen was a smile in her eyes and her voice was very pleasant. ¡°Oh, is this Zhu Ting?¡±


    When Zhu Ting didn¡¯t know whether to get up or sit down, Chi Xiao pressed her hand down. ¡°You don¡¯t have to be an outsider. Sit down. After all, if it weren¡¯t for the accident, you might even be my sister-in-law.¡±


    When the originally ambitious Zhu Ting heard this, her expression suddenly changed, and then her mind went blank. For a moment, she didn¡¯t know whether to explain or to maintain the current situation.


    Seeing this, Chi Xiao covered her lips and sat next to Mo Ting. ¡°I don¡¯t know what you¡¯re thinking. Why is it so easy to sway your heart? It¡¯s just a few words, and you want to do something inappropriate?¡±


    Zhu Ting¡¯s expression became even uglier. She felt as if she had been stripped of a layer of clothes and allowed Chi Xiao to humiliate her.


    Chi Xiao sighed. ¡°You¡¯re also a silly child. You¡¯re still inexperienced.¡±


    When she said this, Chi Xiao seemed to have forgotten that she was a few years younger than Zhu Ting.


    Mo Ting changed his position and said lightly, ¡°Tell me, who are the people you contacted? What did they do to you?¡±


    Zhu Ting shut her mouth and didn¡¯t want to say anything.


    ¡°Think carefully. If something happens to the company that you can¡¯t explain clearly, you¡¯ll have to bear legal responsibility.¡±


    However, Chi Xiao¡¯s voice was still at the side, enticing Zhu Ting to tell her everything she knew. Zhu Ting raised her head and looked at Chi Xiao and Mo Ting¡¯s intimate look in a daze. She seemed to have finally understood something and wilted.


    She lowered her eyes and said, ¡°I¡¯ll¡­ I¡¯ll tell you..¡±

 Chapter 21 - Who To Sympathise With?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Zhu Ting¡¯s family was not rich to begin with. Although her family did not favor sons over daughters, they could not provide her with much help.


    The only good thing was that Zhu Ting only needed to support herself every month and did not need to send money to her family.


    However, the capital was a big city and the level of consumption was very high. Besides money for paying the rent and supporting herself, there was almost nothing left in Zhu Ting¡¯s salary.


    Zhu Ting, who had enough of living a hard life, began to have devious ideas.


    At this time, someone contacted her and gave her a complete plan. From how to approach Mo Xuan, to what kind of person she was after knowing Mo Xuan, to how to get to know Mo Ting through Mo Xuan later on, and then using Mo Xuan as a stepping stone¡­ to become the wife of Mo Ting in one leap.


    In the plan, she had indeed seen Mo Xuan as a complete tool.


    Mo Xuan was truly miserable.


    After hearing Zhu Ting¡¯s confession, Chi Xiao frowned slightly. Zhu Ting accidentally met Chi Xiao¡¯s face. She paused for a moment and silently averted her eyes.


    ¡°How can this person be so sure that you¡¯re the sort of man who would get involved with his cousin¡¯s girlfriend?¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s movements froze as well. His expression was slightly distorted. ¡°Of course I won¡¯t.¡±


    Chi Xiao comforted him, ¡°Yes, of course you¡¯re not that kind of person.¡±


    The two of them didn¡¯t say anything out of the ordinary, there weren¡¯t even any intimate actions. However, the atmosphere in the room made Zhu Ting feel that she was really unnecessary. Sitting here, she felt as if she was a third wheel.


    ¡°How do you usually communicate?¡±


    Zhu Ting, who was still thinking that she might be a third wheel, reacted after hearing these words. After a while, she said, ¡°We usually call each other, but now that number has become an empty number.¡±


    Chi Xiao took Zhu Ting¡¯s phone and called Jin Mao.


    Jin Mao, who had long been prepared, immediately took action. Although the number had been canceled, at least the previous actions could still be found.


    Not long after, Jin Mao said, ¡°Boss, the last time this number was active was at the Mo family¡¯s company.¡±


    After a pause, Jin Mao said, ¡°It seems that the person on the other side of this number is the same person who called Mo Xuan.¡±


    Chi Xiao relayed Jin Mao¡¯s results to Mo Ting, and Mo Ting had a complicated expression on his face.


    Chi Xiao looked at Zhu Ting, who didn¡¯t know what was going on, and a trace of tenderness rose in her heart. She didn¡¯t know whether to say that this girl had been completely taken advantage of, or that Mo Xuan was actually the one who was in a worse state.


    But speaking of which, these two people weren¡¯t actually innocent.


    If they didn¡¯t have any ulterior motives, who could force them?


    Since she couldn¡¯t find the person behind the scenes through the phone, Chi Xiao planned to ruin this person¡¯s scheme. She flipped through her phone and called Mo Xuan.


    ¡°Alright, Mo Xuan, I¡¯ve made an appointment. I¡¯ll leave the rest to you.¡±


    Chi Xiao stood up and stretched her body. Her bones creaked and she left with a light smile. She was very relieved to leave Zhu Ting and the powerless Mo Ting together.


    Mo Xuan followed Chi Xiao¡¯s words and returned to the old mansion. When he saw Zhu Ting, his expression was complicated. It was hard to tell if he was happy or angry.


    Before Mo Xuan could react, he saw Mo Ting first. The half-raised expression on his face disappeared and he returned to his original arrogance and unwillingness. He sneered and asked, ¡°You¡¯re looking for me? What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Mo Ting waved his hand, and Zhu Ting flipped her phone to the call log interface and sent it to Mo Xuan.


    Mo Xuan snickered and took it. ¡°What? You¡¯re showing me who you conspired with to set me up?¡±


    ¡°No¡­ but kind of.¡± Zhu Ting¡¯s expression was obviously conflicted.


    After a while, Mo Ting continued, ¡°I won¡¯t get involved in the matter between Zhu Ting and you, but aren¡¯t you a little stupid to listen to outsiders?¡±


    Blinking his eyes, Mo Xuan didn¡¯t understand what Mo Ting meant.


    Mo Ting simply told Mo Xuan about the location of the person behind the scenes in Zhu Ting¡¯s phone call and the same location of Mo Xuan¡¯s phone call.


    Although compared to Mo Ting, Mo Xuan was a lot less scheming, but he was still a smart person. Hearing Mo Ting¡¯s words, Mo Xuan¡¯s expression became absent-minded.


    Very soon, Mo Xuan reacted and asked, ¡°Someone schemed against me behind my back?¡±


    He then faced Zhu Ting. ¡°From the moment you approached me?¡±


    Zhu Ting paused for a moment before nodding.


    To be honest, it wasn¡¯t that Zhu Ting had no feelings at all for Mo Xuan. It was just that compared to feelings, Zhu Ting wanted money more. In the past, when she knew that there was a better choice, she would naturally work hard for Mo Ting.


    But now¡­


    Zhu Ting recalled Chi Xiao¡¯s imposing manner and suddenly shivered. Forget it, forget it, she didn¡¯t have such a fate.


    What could be more frustrating for Mo Xuan than being admitted by a woman that she didn¡¯t think highly of him and schemed against him from the start?


    Mo Xuan took a few steps back and fell straight onto the bed. He looked like he was in a trance.


    Seeing this, Mo Ting frowned and raised his leg to kick Mo Xuan. When Mo Xuan looked over in confusion, Mo Ting said, ¡°That¡¯s my bed. Don¡¯t sit on it.¡±


    Mo Xuan: ¡°¡­¡± he was already so sad.. Shouldn¡¯t he console him?

 Chapter 22 - Another Scheme

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Chi Xiao wasn¡¯t sure how Mo Ting had negotiated with Mo Xuan, but ever since Mo Ting had finished speaking, Mo Xuan had become much more honest.


    The people behind the scenes probably knew that Mo Xuan couldn¡¯t be used anymore, so they didn¡¯t contact him again after that.


    ¡°Is this really for the better?¡±


    Chi Xiao felt that it was a bit of a shame. The clues they had painstakingly found before were all wasted just like that?


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t let your efforts go to waste.¡± Mo Ting naturally knew Chi Xiao¡¯s worries and couldn¡¯t help but feel warm in his heart. However, he couldn¡¯t help but put on a reserved expression on his face.


    This was a very magical feeling. There was no need for Chi Xiao to do anything for him. As long as they were together, they would be in their best condition.


    On one side, it was peaceful. On the other side of the old mansion, a storm was brewing.


    The plump middle-aged man threw the thing in his hand and smashed it on the table. The top-quality Nanmu table had a big hole smashed into it.


    ¡°You couldn¡¯t even handle such a small matter? It¡¯s only expected that Mo Ting has found out, but that idiot Mo Xuan actually found out?¡±


    A young man stood on the other side of the table. The man¡¯s expression was extremely ugly as he listened to the middle-aged man¡¯s angry words. The young man smiled apologetically and said, ¡°Yes, it¡¯s also a coincidence. Previously, when Mo Xuan smuggled some goods to Zhu Ting, Zhu Ting didn¡¯t handle it well. As a result, it caused quite a big impact on the company, which was why Mo Ting was alarmed.¡±


    These were naturally the excuses that Mo Ting and Chi Xiao had discussed. Their goal was to dilute Chi Xiao¡¯s presence in this matter.


    ¡°Although it sounds very reasonable,¡± the middle-aged man pondered. ¡°I still feel that something isn¡¯t right. Tell me, isn¡¯t this too much of a coincidence?¡±


    However, even though he knew logically that it was too much of a coincidence, Mo Ting was about to die after all. The desire for power made it difficult for the middle-aged man not to be tempted.


    ¡°How is Mo Ting doing now?¡±


    The young man replied softly, ¡°It¡¯s said that he has recovered slightly and is now able to sit in a wheelchair and go out to bask in the sun with Chi Xiao¡¯s company.¡±


    ¡°Chi Xiao¡­¡± the middle-aged man suddenly laughed coldly. ¡°Chi Xiao has such a miserable background. What type of man do you think she would like? Would it be a warm-hearted big brother or a gentle neighbor?¡±


    * *


    Chi Xiao¡¯s usual activities were usually limited at the Mo family. She rarely needed to go out.


    In the end, one day, a nanny who was usually in charge of cooking suddenly asked Chi Xiao for help.


    The nanny said that her child was sick and that she needed to go back and take care of the child for a few days. She asked Chi Xiao to help with the meals for the next few days.


    She pleaded with great sincerity, but Chi Xiao could still see the guilty look on the nanny¡¯s face.


    Chi Xiao chuckled and agreed. After asking the nanny about her daily routine, she asked her to leave.


    When the nanny disappeared from Chi Xiao¡¯s sight, the smile on Chi Xiao¡¯s face faded and she called Jin Mao.


    ¡°Find out who the Mo family¡¯s cooking nanny had contacted before.¡±


    Chi Xiao turned her head and waved at Mo Ting, who was walking out of the room. She then continued to instruct, ¡°After you find her, contact Mo Ting¡¯s assistant directly.¡±


    After saying that, she hung up the phone and walked up to Mo Ting. She smiled and asked, ¡°Why did you come out?¡±


    Mo Ting paused for a moment and his fingers spasmed. ¡°I¡¯m hungry.¡±


    ¡°Hungry?¡±


    Chi Xiao was shocked. It had only been an hour since they had eaten lunch. During lunch, Mo Ting had a good appetite and had eaten quite a lot. Chi Xiao had even praised him. Who knew that he would be hungry again?


    Chi Xiao felt uneasy. ¡°Reach out your hand. I¡¯ll take your pulse.¡±


    Mo Ting obediently reached out his hand and looked at Chi Xiao with a smile. The corners of his mouth were always smiling. As he looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s face, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some cracks in the scar on Chi Xiao¡¯s nose.


    As if he had thought of something, Mo Ting turned around and chuckled. He gently knocked on the wheelchair with one hand.


    Initially, Chi Xiao felt a little uncomfortable under Mo Ting¡¯s gaze. However, when she touched Mo Ting¡¯s pulse, her expression suddenly changed.


    As if she couldn¡¯t believe it, she checked again.


    ¡°What¡¯s Wrong?¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s furrowed brows attracted Mo Ting¡¯s attention.


    After a while, Chi Xiao pushed Mo Ting¡¯s head and touched his eyelids. After confirming that Mo Ting¡¯s eyeballs were bloodshot, she was so angry that her entire body trembled.


    ¡°Who was it? When did they poison you again?¡±


    Chi Xiao was angry on one hand because this person had provoked her. On the other hand, there were also some unknown factors involved.


    The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Chi Xiao didn¡¯t even want to play the long game anymore.


    At this time, it was Mo Ting, the victim, who was even calmer. He stopped Chi Xiao, who looked like an angry cat.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know what I¡¯m doing.¡±


    Chi Xiao turned her head and looked at Mo Ting, who was smiling at her, in disbelief.


    ¡°This poison is inhaled, not from eating. You¡­¡±


    Mo Ting asked, ¡°Is it only effective if it reacts with the previous poison?¡±


    Chi Xiao nodded.


    This way, Mo Ting understood that since they lived together and there was no reason for them to be poisoned by the inhalation method, only he would be poisoned. The only difference between him and others was that he had been poisoned with the other type, right?


    ¡°Continue with whatever you were planning to do,¡± Mo Ting said. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about me..¡±

 Chapter 23 - Destiny

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Chi Xiao was standing on the busy street, looking at the traffic, but she was very annoyed.


    She took the job of a nanny and went out to buy vegetables seriously.


    The result was not satisfactory.


    It was likely because she had not gone out to buy anything for a long time that Chi Xiao only felt that nothing was going well today. Even the auntie at the market was cold to her.


    Fortunately, she met a tall man on the way. The man was very handsome and his entire body was filled with a scholarly aura. He looked like an intellectual.


    The man helped Chi Xiao out of her predicament and even exchanged names with her.


    The man¡¯s name was Wen Yu. He was a university professor.


    Hearing Chi Xiao¡¯s name, the corners of Wen Yu¡¯s mouth curled up. He replied gently, ¡°That¡¯s a good name.¡±


    Thus, the two of them went shopping and walked together. After walking for a short distance, they arrived at the place where the Mo family¡¯s chauffeur had parked.


    However, the Mo family¡¯s car that had been parked there a moment ago had disappeared. Chi Xiao paused for a moment and her phone rang at the same time. After the call was connected, it was the calm voice of the chauffeur from before.


    ¡°Eldest young madam, the elder urgently needs a car. You should wait for a while. Otherwise, can you take a taxi back? After all, with your face, it¡¯s quite safe.¡±


    Before Chi Xiao could reply, the other end of the phone hung up.


    ¡°Did something happen?¡± Wen Yu also spoke at the right time. It was so coincidental that it was unbelievable.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing. The chauffeur at home is dead. I might have to walk home by myself.¡±


    Wen Yu paused and a question mark silently appeared on his head. The chauffeur¡­ was dead?


    Even though he had doubts, Wen Yu still responded to the mission given by his higher-ups and offered to send Chi Xiao Home.


    Chi Xiao naturally did not reject and followed Wen Yu into the car. It was a very cheap car.


    ¡°Mr. Wen, you must loves cars very much,¡± Chi Xiao suddenly said after getting into the car.


    Wen Yu, who was about to put on his seatbelt, paused for a moment. Then, he gently put on his seatbelt and smiled, ¡°Yes, this car has followed me for many years. I love it very much.¡±


    Chi Xiao smiled kindly and said, ¡°You must be a very good person. You are so good to cars, let alone people.¡±


    Wen Yu looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s face and held back his disgust. He smiled calmly and said, ¡°Sigh, but a sincere person also has their disadvantages. It¡¯s too easy to get hurt.¡±


    These words were right. Chi Xiao nodded in agreement.


    Wen Yu asked, ¡°Where do you live?¡±


    Chi Xiao did not decline and directly gave him the address of the Mo family¡¯s old residence.


    Wen Yu looked very surprised. ¡°This is the wealthy district. I didn¡¯t expect the rich to come out to buy vegetables themselves.¡±


    ¡°Ah, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m not a rich person. I¡¯m the nanny of a rich family,¡± Chi Xiao replied expressionlessly.


    Wen Yu¡¯s expression froze visibly. Then, he said, ¡°You really like to joke.¡±


    Chi Xiao smiled and did not reply.


    But it was this reaction that made Wen Yu even more shocked and uncertain. He quietly drove the car, thinking about the request of his employer over and over again.


    That¡¯s right, this Wen Yu was not a professor at all, but a professional swindler.


    A love swindler.


    Usually, he relied on swindling rich women¡¯s feelings to get their money for a living.


    Two days ago, he was located. He was given two million yuan upfront to swindle an ugly freak called Chi Xiao.


    It had to be said that when Wen Yu first received Chi Xiao¡¯s information, he did not care. Although there was a scar on her face, her body was still very graceful. He could totally do it.


    However, when he saw her in person just now, Wen Yu was almost frightened by Chi Xiao¡¯s face.


    Perhaps it was because he was guilty of being a swindler, but when Wen Yu saw her face, he almost felt that the scar on her face was alive and it was wriggling.


    This was not only disgusting, it was more like fear inducing.


    God knows how much mental preparation he had just made to run out and help Chi Xiao out of the situation according to the plot.


    Following his conversation with Chi Xiao, Wen Yu realized that Chi Xiao was unexpectedly a very simple girl who was very gullible. He had only said some specious words, but Chi Xiao was about to reveal all of her family¡¯s assets to him.


    ¡°Oh right, is there anyone else in your family? Why are you out to buy groceries?¡± Wen Yu started to try to trick her again.


    Chi Xiao curled the corners of her lips where Wen Yu could not see. She said softly, ¡°I still have my father, stepmother, and stepsister at home. Only I can go out to buy groceries.¡±


    Wen Yu immediately put on a protective mask. ¡°Does your father not treat you well? It¡¯s said that having a stepmother will give birth to a stepfather.¡±


    Unexpectedly, it was Chi Xiao who raised her head and smiled innocently. ¡°It¡¯s alright. My father doesn¡¯t treat me well, and I don¡¯t treat him well either. After I got married, the first thing I asked of my partner was to get him to find trouble with my father.¡±


    ¡°Ah? You¡¯re married?¡±


    Wen Yu was so shocked that he suddenly stepped on the brakes.


    Chi Xiao felt a little strange. ¡°Why are you so surprised? It¡¯s just marriage. I¡¯m already old enough. My child is already four years old.¡±


    Wen Yu was even more shocked.. Although he could be said to be a gigolo, he had never been a third party!

 Chapter 24 - Scared Out Of His Wits

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Wait a minute, did Chi Xiao¡¯s words just now contain too much information?


    Asking her husband to look for trouble with her father?


    Chi Xiao had an innocent look on her face as she attentively watched Wen Yu¡¯s expression change from moment to moment.


    Wen Yu had experienced a lot of inner turmoil, but in the end, he still had to bend over for money. He gave up on his usual rule of not being a third party, and he pretended to casually brush his hair that had fallen from his ears. His entire body was emitting a hormonal aura.


    ¡°Your father is really too much. He doesn¡¯t cherish a good daughter like you.¡±


    Wen Yu wanted to say that Chi Xiao was beautiful, but looking at Chi Xiao¡¯s face, he couldn¡¯t go against his conscience and say the word ¡°god-looking.¡±


    How blind could a person be to say that Chi Xiao was good-looking?


    Chi Xiao thought for a moment, then curved her lips and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright. I¡¯m always angry with my father. In the past, I often didn¡¯t give my father face in front of outsiders. Maybe that¡¯s why my father doesn¡¯t like me?¡±


    Wen Yu was almost stunned by Chi Xiao¡¯s words. He thought that if it were him, he would probably not acknowledge his daughter anymore.


    Chi Xiao continued, ¡°Actually, my father doesn¡¯t want to acknowledge me anymore. Of course, it¡¯s the same for me. It¡¯s a pity that my family isn¡¯t very rich. If I want to make a fortune, I can only borrow the power of other families. Hence, my father kept me for an arranged marriage.¡±


    Before Wen Yu could think of whether he should comfort her or praise her, Chi Xiao continued, ¡°But fortunately, the arranged marriage happened and I met my husband now. Otherwise, I don¡¯t know when I would be able to take revenge on my father.¡±


    Wen Yu:¡±¡­¡± this lady¡¯s thoughts were somewhat unconventional.


    The car soon arrived near the Mo family. Originally, Wen Yu wanted to boil a frog in warm water and take his time. After all, there was someone behind him who gave him money and clues.


    Unexpectedly, after Chi Xiao got off the car, she bent down and forcefully dragged Wen Yu into the Mo family¡¯s old mansion.


    Wen Yu was shocked and began to recount what happened today. After confirming that Chi Xiao¡¯s reaction was too strange and that the person was very happy to give him money, his heart skipped a beat. He couldn¡¯t help but think, could this be a trap?


    These people wanted to murder him for money?


    At this moment, Wen Yu looked at the Mo family¡¯s old mansion and felt that this imposing old mansion was now a devil¡¯s den that had retracted its claws and teeth.


    The scar on Chi Xiao¡¯s face made him think that the people here wanted to capture others. However, because those people resisted, their faces were injured in the process and that was why they were injured like she was.


    With this thought in mind, Wen Yu looked at Chi Xiao¡¯s face and felt even more fearful.


    Just as he stepped into the Mo family¡¯s old mansion, Wen Yu¡¯s legs went weak and he sat on the ground paralyzed. He grabbed Chi Xiao¡¯s pants and said, ¡°I was wrong, I was wrong. Let me go, let me go!¡±


    Chi Xiao looked at Wen Yu strangely. Under the surprised gazes of the many nannies, he slowly asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? I didn¡¯t want to do anything to you.¡±


    However, how could Wen Yu listen to all this at this moment?


    He thought that the surrounding nannies were accomplices in human trafficking. Perhaps this was their usual routine. Originally, with Wen Yu¡¯s physical strength, he could have escaped from here. However, Wen Yu was first shocked by himself. At this moment, he actually could not muster up any strength. He was so shocked that he fainted.


    ¡°Eh?¡±


    Chi Xiao looked at Wen Yu and was slightly shocked. A moment later, she struggled her pants out of his clutch and looked coldly at Wen Yu who had fainted on the ground. She sneered, ¡°With such guts, you still dare to do such a thing?¡±


    Seeing that Mo Ting was being pushed over, Chi Xiao curled her lips into a smile and said, ¡°Ah, you probably received money and wanted to seduce me. In the end, you fainted for no reason.¡±


    Mo Ting didn¡¯t even glance at Wen Yu, who was lying on the ground. He only said softly, ¡°Isn¡¯t it a little bad for you to put yourself in danger like this?¡±


    Under Mo Ting¡¯s disapproving gaze, Chi Xiao said obsequiously, ¡°It¡¯s not dangerous either. Just like this, I can beat three weaklings by myself.¡±


    Before Chi Xiao could finish speaking, she noticed Mo Ting¡¯s gaze. She lowered her head and said softly, ¡°Okay, okay. I definitely won¡¯t do it again in the future.¡±


    Mo Ting looked at Chi Xiao a few more times to make sure that what she said wasn¡¯t a lie. Then, he gave Chi Xiao one last warning look and instructed his assistant, ¡°Go and take a look at that thing.¡±


    Soon, Wen Yu was brought away by his assistant.


    Chi Xiao pushed Mo Ting into the house. When she stepped through the door,s he even stuffed a piece of candy into Mo Ting¡¯s mouth. ¡°You¡¯ve already eaten today¡¯s meal. Have a candy to replenish yourself.¡±


    Mo Ting licked the candy with the tip of his tongue. He only felt that this sweet taste was sweet to his heart.


    ¡°Tell me, why did that person find someone to seduce me?¡± Chi Xiao peeled another orange.


    ¡°Because you¡¯re my lucky star?¡±


    ¡°How is that an answer?¡± Chi Xiao didn¡¯t believe it.


    Mo Ting changed his posture. ¡°It can¡¯t be that they want me to experience the feeling of being cuckolded, right?¡±


    Chi Xiao paused. ¡°I suddenly realized that your family members seem to be quite superstitious.¡±


    This meant that she agreed with Mo Ting¡¯s statement that she was his lucky star.


    Mo Ting gently tapped his finger. Indeed, he did not feel that such a reason was credible. Currently, it was more likely that the other party knew that Chi Xiao could treat his illness, which was why they sent someone to seduce her. It was low-cost and inconspicuous..

 Chapter 25 - Reform

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Mo Ting actually had some idea about the people who had schemed against him. It was just that the tracks they left behind were too clean so he couldn¡¯t find any clues.


    However, it didn¡¯t matter. Mo Ting had used up most of his patience and no longer wanted to beat around the bush with these people, so he thought, why not find some other excuse?


    Chi Xiao looked at Mo Ting sitting in front of the window and looking outside with a little loneliness. She felt a little uncomfortable. Before she moved, she went up to touch Mo Ting¡¯s head and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong? You look a little unhappy.¡±


    Mo Ting patted Chi Xiao¡¯s other hand on his shoulder and said in a low voice, ¡°The weather is going to change.¡±


    Chi Xiao paused for a moment and almost instantly understood what Mo Ting meant. She asked, ¡°Are you ready to make a move? Will making a move now affect the relationship within your family?¡±


    Upon hearing Chi Xiao¡¯s words, Mo Ting was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed and said, ¡°It won¡¯t. Does our family even have any relationship in the first place?¡±


    Chi Xiao thought for a moment and agreed. ¡°Indeed. Look at our Chi family. There are only four of us. In the end, we¡¯re still always scheming. We¡¯re so tired every day.¡±


    Mo Ting paused and nodded with difficulty. ¡°You¡¯re right. That makes sense.¡±


    Hence, they started an internal investigation within the Mo family. Many of Mo Ting¡¯s uncles realized that their situation wasn¡¯t good. Some of them could have negotiated to cooperate, but the higher-ups suddenly refused to approve it. They were so angry that the uncles all came to the Mo family¡¯s old residence, and one by one, they came to the Mo family¡¯s house to demand an explanation from the Mo family.


    ¡°What are Mo Ting¡¯s intentions?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. We are his elders after all. Is this how he treats his elders?¡±


    ¡°Do you think that since Mo Ting is going to die soon, he is paving the way for his son?¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be. How old is his son? What can he do?¡±


    The uncles were talking to one another at the door of Mo Ting¡¯s room. However, when they saw Mo Ting¡¯s wheelchair, they suddenly stopped talking.


    Mo Ting leaned against the wheelchair with his last breath. He looked at these people with half-closed eyes. Before he spoke, he coughed first. After a while, he coughed up blood. The light in the room was very dim, so no one could see Mo Ting¡¯s expression clearly.


    Mo Ting¡¯s expression was probably better, but he still did not speak.


    In the end, it was a distant uncle of Mo Ting¡¯s who could not hold it in and said, ¡°Young Ting, what are you trying to do? Why is our cooperation not approved?¡±


    Seeing that someone had stood up, the others also did not speak.


    Mo Ting raised his head. Half of his face was hidden in the darkness. Even though his body was weak, the aura around him still made his uncles somewhat fearful.


    After a long while, the one who had just spoken spoke again, ¡°Young Ting, no matter what, I¡¯ve watched you grow up. You can¡¯t do this.¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s fingers moved. ¡°Oh?¡±


    The tone of his voice, with ambiguous meaning, made people feel even more at a loss.


    The air gradually became oppressive. Suddenly, Mo Ting said, ¡°This is just an internal self-investigation. Don¡¯t worry.¡±


    Hearing Mo Ting¡¯s words, the uncles became even more worried. They all looked at Mo Ting, as if they were afraid that Mo Ting would ask them to pack up and go home.


    The uncles looked at one another and saw traces of ruthlessness in one another¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°Uncles, you¡¯ve worked hard for the Mo family for so many years. Naturally, I won¡¯t mistreat you,¡± Mo Ting said as he took out a laptop from the table behind him and showed the powerpoint interface to the uncles.


    ¡°There will be a more perfect mechanism in the future. Those who are capable will work harder, and those who work harder will get more benefits. I definitely won¡¯t let all of you only contribute and not get any benefits.¡±


    The few of them looked at one another. After all these years of hard work, those who were conscientious all heaved a sigh of relief. On the contrary, those who occupied their seats and did not do anything had ugly expressions on their faces.


    ¡°About this¡­ Young Ting, aren¡¯t we doing fine the way we used to be?¡± One of them rubbed his hands and seemed to be in a difficult position.


    Mo Ting sighed and coughed again. ¡°The times are improving. We can¡¯t always keep things the way they are.¡±


    The uncles watched Mo Ting cough until his internal organs seemed about to be coughed out. Seeing that the situation was over and the order that Mo Ting wanted to push forward had become a foregone conclusion and could not be changed, most of them had sullen faces and asked to leave.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you think Mo Ting is getting more and more outrageous?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, what do you think we¡¯re after?¡±


    ¡°Looks like we can¡¯t keep going like this. We have to do something.¡±


    The few of them left in twos and threes. However, before they left, they all looked at Mo Ting¡¯s room as if they had been poisoned.


    A fat middle-aged man with big ears and an extremely ugly expression just now sneaked back after everyone left. He knocked on the door and entered Mo Ting¡¯s room again.


    ¡°Sixth Uncle, you acted well just now.¡± Mo Ting did not turn his head.


    The middle-aged man who was called Sixth Uncle was Mo Ting¡¯s cousin uncle, Mo Hao. Their relationship was already weak, but he had grown up together with Mo Jun since young, so their relationship could be considered quite deep. When Mo Ting had just entered the Mo family¡¯s company, he had also contributed quite a bit, and could be considered as the only person that Mo Ting trusted among the Mo family¡¯s uncles..

 Chapter 26 - Don’t Make Yourself So Tired

    ¡°Young Ting, what are you going to do next?¡± Mo Hao wasn¡¯t sure what Mo Ting wanted to do.


    Although what Mo Ting had done was very effective for the future management of the Mo family, and because he explained it clearly, it wouldn¡¯t make the people who really worked for the Mo family feel disappointed.


    However, even so, it still had an impact on maintaining the stability of the Mo family.


    After Mo Hao learned of Mo Ting¡¯s actions, it was difficult for him not to be moved by Mo Ting¡¯s ambition.


    ¡°Next, let¡¯s clean it up.¡± Mo Ting sighed, moved his legs, and stood up from the wheelchair. His tall figure appeared even more oppressive by the window.


    Mo Hao unconsciously took a step back, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.


    ¡°You probably still don¡¯t know, right? I was poisoned again a few days ago.¡±


    The reverence from before instantly disappeared from Mo Hao¡¯s mind. ¡°W-what¡¯s going on? Who on Earth hates you so much?¡±


    Mo Ting sneered. ¡°I don¡¯t know, and I¡¯m not interested in playing with them anymore. It¡¯s better to just remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot. Don¡¯t let any of the suspects go.¡±


    Mo Hao paused, and his gaze was a little unnatural. ¡°Sigh, they¡¯re still blood-related elders after all.¡±


    Mo Ting agreed and said, ¡°After all, they are all my elders, so I won¡¯t pursue the matter of poisoning me. It¡¯s just that they are a bit of an eyesore in the company, and I don¡¯t want to see them again in the future.¡±


    ¡°Again?¡±


    After taking two steps in the room, Mo Ting gradually got used to the feeling of his legs and feet. ¡°I haven¡¯t walked for so long that I almost forgot what it feels like to walk.¡±


    ¡°Ah, what did you say just now? Again?¡±


    Mo Ting smiled coldly. ¡°If they¡¯re more obedient, they won¡¯t appear in my sight in the future. If they¡¯re stubborn, they¡¯ll definitely cause trouble for me, and they¡¯d better not appear in the future.¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s voice was too cold, so cold that Mo Hao actually shivered.


    ¡°Sixth Uncle, there¡¯s no need to be afraid. After all, you¡¯re a rare good person. You¡¯ll still have to work hard in the company in the future.¡± After saying that, Mo Ting smiled again. ¡°Sixth Uncle, if there is nothing else, you can leave first. I probably won¡¯t need your cooperation from now on.¡±


    After being given a clear eviction order, Mo Hao could only leave with a worried expression. After leaving Mo Ting¡¯s room, he even sighed deeply. It looked like Mo Ting was about to die.


    Chi Xiao walked out from the inner room of Mo Ting¡¯s room. Seeing Mo Ting¡¯s pale face, she hurriedly ran over and helped Mo Ting sit on the bed. She rebuked, ¡°What are you trying to show off for? Right now, the poison in your body is temporarily on your legs. Why are you still putting pressure on your legs? Are you looking for trouble?¡±


    Mo Ting chuckled and did not refute Chi Xiao¡¯s words.


    After Chi Xiao finished massaging Mo Ting, Chi Xiao sighed and said, ¡°I don¡¯t know if this is right or not. I still feel that it¡¯s too reckless.¡±


    Mo Ting, on the other hand, rubbed the top of Chi Xiao¡¯s hairy head and messed up her smooth hair. ¡°There¡¯s nothing wrong with it. Achieving the goal will be good enough.¡±


    He turned his head to look down through the window and saw Mo Hao walking out with a troubled expression on his face. He even took an unassuming turn when he met a nanny.


    Mo Hao might not be so innocent after all.


    Mo Ting began to suspect all the uncles of the Mo family. However, Mo Hao had been with him the longest and was also the most diligent. Although he did not have much achievements, he was still the most obedient.


    Why would he doubt such a person?


    It was rare for Mo Ting to hesitate.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Chi Xiao asked him.


    After Mo Ting revealed his hesitation, he stared at Chi Xiao¡¯s face. He knew that he was being too unreasonable. He wanted to know how Chi Xiao would react when she found out about this side of him.


    However, he could not help but feel a little uneasy.


    Upon hearing this, Chi Xiao laughed instead. ¡°It¡¯s right to be suspicious of everyone.¡±


    After confirming Mo Ting¡¯s actions, Chi Xiao said, ¡°I¡¯m just a little worried about you. I don¡¯t trust anyone. It¡¯s too tiring.¡±


    Chi Xiao grabbed Mo Ting¡¯s hands and felt the cold temperature on his hands. She changed the topic without leaving a trace. ¡°Your hands are too cold. This won¡¯t do.¡±


    ¡°Then think of a way to warm them up for me.¡± Mo Ting smiled as well. It was the first time Chi Xiao had seen such a smile.


    It was a little sly, but it was a smile that came from the bottom of his heart.


    Just looking at it made people feel happy.


    Mo Ting said in his heart, I won¡¯t be tired. I never had someone I can trust, but now I do.


    In an instant, Mo Ting felt his chest warm and bloated, as if something was about to jump out.


    Perhaps this was love?


    Mo Ting lowered his head and covered his smile.


    Chi Xiao warmed Mo Ting¡¯s hand for a while and said seemingly unintentionally, ¡°The results of the interrogation of the nanny who tried to kidnap Han Han the other day are out.¡±


    After confirming that she had attracted Mo Ting¡¯s attention, Chi Xiao shrugged indifferently. ¡°I wonder how much money Mo Xuan¡¯s father gave the nanny. The nanny would rather be sentenced as a human trafficker than snitch on him.¡±


    ¡°But it¡¯s also easy to guess.¡± Chi Xiao sighed. ¡°Whether she gives up or not, she has to be sentenced. But if she doesn¡¯t give up, Mo Xuan¡¯s family might take extra care of the nanny¡¯s family for the sake of the nanny¡¯s stubborn resistance..¡±

 Chapter 27 - Did He Do Anything Wrong?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°No,¡± Mo Ting suddenly said. When he saw Chi Xiao¡¯s puzzled expression, he continued, ¡°It wasn¡¯t Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family who wanted to kidnap Han Han.¡±


    ¡°No? Weren¡¯t they very proactive that day?¡±


    Chi Xiao suddenly felt that it was a little out of place when she said this.


    Second Uncle Mo¡¯s family couldn¡¯t be considered stupid. If they were so eager, wouldn¡¯t it make people suspect them?


    ¡°You suspect that they were also schemed against?¡± Chi Xiao muttered. She felt that the person behind them was playing a big game of chess, placing all of them on the chessboard.


    Seeing the serious look on Chi Xiao¡¯s face, Mo Ting slowly curled his lips and felt happy.


    Suddenly, Chi Xiao¡¯s expression changed and she exclaimed, ¡°Actually, we have been ignoring someone.¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s heart skipped a beat. Chi Xiao then realized that she had accidentally slapped Mo Ting¡¯s thigh. She quickly retracted her hand and smiled shyly.


    Mo Ting¡¯s ears were tinged with a thin layer of red. A moment later, he coughed lightly and asked, ¡°Who is it?¡±


    Seeing Mo Ting ask this, Chi Xiao couldn¡¯t bear to say it. She started to stutter and finally, under Mo Ting¡¯s encouraging gaze, she said, ¡°Your Father, Mo Jun¡­¡±


    To be honest, this answer was indeed something that Mo Ting had never thought of. He had suspected his siblings, his uncles, but he had never doubted Mo Jun at all. Now that he suddenly heard this possibility¡­ there was actually a trace of dust settling in his heart.


    He even thought that it was true. After all, that was his father.


    Mo Hao anxiously returned to his house. He pushed open the door and saw that his disappointing son was still holding onto his phone. He was swaggering on the sofa and chatting with his scoundrel friends. He could not help but feel angry.


    He went up and snatched his son¡¯s phone. He immediately scolded his son.


    Poor Mo Hao¡¯s son, a man in his twenties, was scolded so badly by his father that he could not even raise his head.


    Finally, he concluded, ¡°Tell me, if you were more capable, why would I have to spend all my time fawning over a brat like Mo Ting?¡±


    Mo Hao¡¯s son lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, ¡°But why don¡¯t you look at yourself and see if you¡¯re actually a direct descendant of the Mo Family?¡±


    These words were like adding fuel to the fire. Mo Hao picked up a fruit from the fruit plate and threw it directly at his son. He berated angrily, ¡°How am I not a direct descendant? The Mo family is able to accumulate their current wealth because of your grandfather¡¯s help.¡±


    Mo Hao¡¯s son saw his irritable look, so he covered his head and ran out of the door.


    Mo Hao looked at his son¡¯s back and let out a long sigh. He fell onto the sofa and asked his assistant beside him, ¡°Tell me, how did I end up with such a son? All day long, he doesn¡¯t even look to improve.¡±


    ¡°Young Master is still young. It¡¯ll be fine when he grows up.¡±


    Looking at his assistant who was about the same age as him, Mo Hao sighed again. ¡°You¡¯ve said that more than ten years ago. He¡¯s almost thirty, how can he still grow up?¡±


    The assistant curled his lips. ¡°He¡¯s not even thirty yet.¡±


    ¡°When I was as old as him, I was already close to becoming a director. Look at him. He¡¯s idling around all day, eating, drinking, and having fun. He doesn¡¯t even have a job. I told him to start from the basics, but he insisted that it was tiring and didn¡¯t even continue.¡±


    As he said this, Mo Hao¡¯s eyes bulged with anger. He said indignantly, ¡°What do you think he wants to do? I¡¯ve already¡­ for him. Why is he still so disappointing?¡±


    His words were unclear, as if were he not paying attention, he would be heard by others and it would be disadvantageous to him.


    Looking at Mo Hao¡¯s appearance, the assistant pursed his lips.


    Noticing the assistant¡¯s smile, Mo Hao asked unhappily, ¡°I¡¯m already like this, yet you¡¯re still smiling?¡±


    The assistant laughed even more, ¡°Love is deep, but responsibility is important. You must have too much expectations for Young Master, that¡¯s why you feel that he¡¯s not living up to expectations like how you¡¯re feeling now.¡±


    The assistant said something else and successfully diverted Mo Hao¡¯s attention. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He made an ¡°Ok¡± hand signal to the young man who was still peeping at the door.


    Only then did the young man leap three feet high and run far away.


    When Mo Hao saw this, he just turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it. He waited for the brat to jump away before he said indifferently, ¡°He will always be spoiled. See? He is spoiled.¡±


    The assistant lowered his head and smiled again. ¡°After all, he grew up in front of his eyes. You will always unconsciously pay attention to him.¡±


    As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Hao fell into a suspicious silence.


    He recalled that Mo Ting had also grown up in front of him. When Mo Ting was young, the time he spent with Mo Hao was almost longer than the time his own son spent with him.


    Mo Hao looked at his flabby skin and wondered for no reason, did he do anything wrong?


    Why did things develop to this point?


    The assistant left. After a while, he walked out of the room with a few greeting cards in his hand.


    ¡°Sir, when I was cleaning the room, I found some greeting cards written by the young master for you. Do you want to throw them away?¡±


    Mo Hao reached out his hand and took the greeting cards. The handwriting on the cards was childish, but it was genuine..

 Chapter 28 - Hypnosis

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    These seven greeting cards had varied handwriting. It was obvious that they were written by a child. From babbling to slowly learning how to write, towards the end, the handwriting actually had developed some backbone. Just by looking at it, one could see that the child who wrote the greeting cards had a wish from the bottom of his heart.


    ¡°Uncle Mo Hao, Happy Birthday. I hope you will be happy every day.¡±


    ¡°Uncle Mo Hao, Happy Birthday. You¡¯ve grown a lot of wrinkles in the past year. I hope you can smile less so that you will be younger.¡±


    ¡­


    ¡°Uncle Mo Hao, Happy Birthday. I rarely see you these days. Are you very busy?¡±


    As he looked, Mo Hao actually felt tears welling up in his eyes. After a while, he forced himself to say, ¡°What do you mean by throwing them away?¡±


    After a pause, he asked again, ¡°Did you do it on purpose?¡±


    When he met Mo Hao¡¯s probing gaze, the assistant remained unmoved. He only adjusted his glasses, ¡°I¡¯m just reminding you that you¡¯re a rare kind person. I don¡¯t know who exactly said things to you that gave you thoughts that you shouldn¡¯t have. I just want to say that you should wake up and not do something that you¡¯ll regret.¡±


    Mo Hao looked at his assistant. One moment, he thought of Mo Ting¡¯s appearance when he was in his arms when he was young. The next moment, he thought of Mo Ting¡¯s swift and decisive methods. After a long while, he suddenly stopped and leaned on the sofa, he said in a low voice, ¡°Yes, what good will this do me?¡±


    Coincidentally, at this moment, a call was made to Mo Hao¡¯s cell phone.


    Mo Hao casually picked up the call. He heard the middle-aged man on the other end of the line ask with a smile, ¡°Sixth brother, how¡¯s the situation? What is Young Ting¡¯s arrangement?¡±


    Seventh Uncle Mo, an old loach. He was a slippery one.


    Mo Hao told him all about Mo Ting¡¯s plans just now. In the end, he even advised him, ¡°Don¡¯t be like how you were in the past. Mo Ting has decided not to support idle people in the future. You better not become an idle person and be kicked out of the company in the future.¡±


    Mo Hao thought that he had put in all his effort in saying these words and that it wouldn¡¯t be a problem for to convince him. However, Seventh Uncle Mo didn¡¯t seem to think so. There was a momentary pause on the other end. It was as if he had paused for a moment before saying, ¡°Sixth brother, let¡¯s stop talking about me anymore. Let¡¯s talk about our eldest nephew.¡±


    The moment the words left his mouth, Mo Hao¡¯s sixth sense frantically started warning him. However, it was as if Mo Hao himself couldn¡¯t hear it. He chuckled and asked, ¡°Eldest nephew? What¡¯s wrong with that kid?¡±


    The voice on the other side was soft, there was a slightly bewitching tone to it as he said, ¡°Although our eldest nephew has loved to play a little these past few years, he has never once delayed his official business. The two of us know it, but the others don¡¯t. Don¡¯t end up being kicked out of the company by Young Ting as some idle person.¡±


    These words could not be said to be without malicious intent.


    Mo Hao only felt the root of his teeth itch, and then he fiercely sucked on it. The intense pain woke him up from the situation just now. Mo Hao was somewhat at a loss. He turned his head to look at his assistant, wondering what had happened to him just now.


    However, the assistant only frowned, and his expression was very ugly.


    When Mo Hao picked up the phone again and listened to the muttering on the other end, it was as if he heard some heavenly music. He was actually a little infatuated. Fortunately, the pain in his gums just now was a constant reminder to him.


    After chatting enthusiastically, Mo Hao hung up the phone and shifted his gaze to his assistant. ¡°What were we talking about just now?¡±


    ¡°It seemed like¡­¡± the assistant deliberated for a moment. ¡°It seemed like you were talking about working together to get rid of the eldest young master and elect the young master as the person in charge of the Mo family.¡±


    The fruit platter was accidentally knocked to the ground by Mo Hao. He raised his head in a daze. Mo Hao looked at his assistant in disbelief, as if he had just heard something incredible.


    ¡°Just now, were we really talking about that?¡±


    After receiving a definite response from his assistant, Mo Hao angrily rebuked, ¡°I knew that this fellow doesn¡¯t have any good intentions. He¡¯s always slippery and always acts like he¡¯s good friends with everyone. How could he take the initiative to call me? And even stand up for me?¡±


    The phone was placed on the coffee table. Mo Hao and his assistant stared at it, their eyes filled with disbelief.


    ¡°Tell me, what happened to me just now?¡±


    After a pause, his assistant probed, ¡°Could it be that you were hypnotized?¡±


    After being told what he was thinking, Mo Hao struggled, ¡°Was I really?¡±


    His assistant shrugged, meaning that if he wasn¡¯t, then what happened just now?


    Mo Hao became even more dispirited. His fat body curled into a ball, ¡°If that¡¯s really the case, then my previous thoughts were very likely hypnotized.¡±


    A moment later, he suddenly regained his energy. He pointed at the phone and cursed, ¡°Seventh Uncle Mo, I knew you had bad intentions. You still want to scheme against me?¡±


    However, the assistant¡¯s words made his hair stand on end.


    The assistant¡¯s expression was indifferent and his voice was very low. He said, ¡°How can you be sure that the person on the other end of the phone is Seventh Uncle Mo? Or, how can you be sure that he wasn¡¯t hypnotized as well?¡±


    Mo Hao¡¯s eyes widened. A scene suddenly appeared in his mind. He was smashing a cup on his own son and even said that he wanted to find Chi Xiao a lover?


    Could he have been hypnotized since long ago?

 Chapter 29 - Treat Her Well

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    This kind of understanding made Mo Hao shudder.


    His head mechanically turned towards his assistant¡¯s direction. Even Mo Hao felt that he could hear the cracking sound of his neck turning.


    Unfortunately, his assistant did not participate in the matter in his mind. He could only look at him with an even more blank gaze, unable to help him share his worries in the slightest.


    ¡°Speaking of which, it seems like it¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve spoken to you alone,¡± Mo Hao suddenly said.


    The assistant nodded, ¡°Yes, but recently, your relationship with the young master seemed to have eased up a lot. Often, the two of you would talk about something in the study. When someone passed by, you would immediately stop the conversation.¡±


    It matched!


    The words that came out of the assistant¡¯s mouth matched the scene in his memory.


    Mo Hao fiercely pulled his hair and said in a low voice, ¡°It seems like I have to tell Mo Ting about this matter.¡±


    If Mo Ting really found out what he had done, he was afraid that he would really be banished from the Mo family. In fact, other places might even unite to boycott him in order to curry favor with Mo Ting.


    Thinking of this, Mo Hao felt suffocated. He snatched his phone and dialed Mo Ting¡¯s number.


    On the other side, Mo Ting and Chi Xiao had just finished suspecting Mo Ting¡¯s biological father and they were in a very complicated situation. When they suddenly received such a call with such bizarre content, their feelings became even more complicated.


    Ever since Mo Ting hung up the phone, he had a strange expression on his face. Seeing this, Chi Xiao felt a little confused. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Mo Ting¡¯s eyes, but Mo Ting didn¡¯t have any reaction.


    It wasn¡¯t until Mo Ting suddenly raised his head and asked in a low voice, ¡°Do you think hypnosis really exists?¡±


    ¡°It does.¡± Chi Xiao thought for a moment and said, ¡°A powerful hypnosis master can make a hypnotized person listen to his orders with just a sound or snap of his fingers. They will subtly become his minions.¡±


    ¡°Why? Did you meet a powerful hypnotist master?¡±


    Mo Ting hesitated again. ¡°I might have, or might not have. I¡¯m not too sure, but what I can confirm is that the person who sent Wen Yu to you was indeed hypnotized.¡±


    Chi Xiao raised her eyebrows and smiled. ¡°Why? Was the person who sent Wen Yu to me was your sixth uncle, Mo Hao?¡±


    Mo Ting did not find it strange that Chi Xiao could guess this from one of his phrases. He had always known that Chi Xiao was smart and powerful. She was also very good at hiding her intelligence.


    ¡°It¡¯s really him and Seventh Uncle Mo. I don¡¯t know if he was hypnotized or if he was with the hypnotist.¡±


    Mo Ting said in a measured tone, ¡°We can¡¯t even deduce whether the person behind the scenes is from the family or from the outside.¡±


    ¡°But no matter what, your plan can be carried out.¡± Chi Xiao smiled, ¡°This won¡¯t affect your plan. The result will be that either you cleaned up the family, or really forced the person behind the scenes out.¡±


    The two of them did not continue to discuss this topic. Instead, they talked about Mo Han.


    Mo Han seemed to have a telepathic connection. After their conversation ended, he held Su Ling¡¯s hand and knocked on the door of their room.


    Chi Xiao opened the door. The moment she saw Mo Han, her eyes suddenly lit up, ¡°Let me see which baby is here?¡±


    Mo Han was indeed very happy. He giggled and replied, ¡°I¡¯m Han Han the big baby.¡±


    ¡°Oh my god, why is baby Han Han so handsome?¡± Chi Xiao used an exaggerated tone, ¡°Baby Han Han, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?¡±


    Mo Han smiled and shook his head. His face was red, ¡°Han Han came after eating at Grandma¡¯s place.¡±


    ¡°Ah, you¡¯ve finished you meal? Let Mom touch your small belly to see if it¡¯s full.¡±


    As she spoke, Chi Xiao mischievously tickled Mo Han¡¯s itchy flesh, making the child laugh non-stop.


    Su Ling walked to Mo Ting¡¯s side with a gratified expression. She looked at the two people who were laughing. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Chi Xiao to have such a personality.¡±


    She continued, ¡°When your grandfather decided on this marriage, I strongly disapproved of it. I didn¡¯t expect that it would lead to a good marriage.¡±


    Mo Ting looked relaxed and happy, but there was no smile on his face.


    Su Ling gently tapped Mo Ting¡¯s head. ¡°You, don¡¯t keep a straight face all day long. Don¡¯t scare people away.¡±


    ¡°Look at how well Xiao Xiao and Han Han are playing. You won¡¯t find such a good woman anywhere else. Treat her better in the future.¡± After a pause, Su Ling added, ¡°Don¡¯t dislike her for being ugly. After looking at Xiao Xiao for a long time, her eyebrows and eyes are still very beautiful.¡±


    Mo Ting didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry when his mother warned him to treat her daughter-in-law better. He had no choice but to promise with a helpless expression, ¡°I will treat her well.¡±


    Looking at Mo Ting¡¯s expression, Su Ling was still a little dissatisfied, but she could only sigh helplessly. ¡°Alright, don¡¯t just say it and not do it. Let me tell you, I won¡¯t be able to find a daughter-in-law like Xiao Xiao.¡±


    Mo Ting nodded in agreement. He was also very satisfied with Chi Xiao in his heart. His Xiao Xiao was smart and beautiful.. How could he not treat her well?

 Chapter 30 - A Phone Call

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Ever since he called Mo Hao, Seventh Uncle Mo had been feeling uneasy.


    Finally, one afternoon, his expression suddenly changed, and he was hit by a wave of dizziness.


    After a pause, Seventh Uncle Mo looked around blankly, holding his throbbing forehead, ¡°How did I lose my memory again? How did I get here?¡±


    He looked around and his expression immediately changed.


    ¡°Where¡¯s my walking stick?¡±


    The nanny quickly handed the walking stick over and said, ¡°Sir, it¡¯s time to take your medicine.¡±


    Elder Mo covered his head and went to take his medicine.


    Ever since two months ago, Elder Mo had often suffered from intermittent amnesia. Often, Elder Mo would suddenly lose his memory and when he had regained it, he would appear in an unexpected place.


    When he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor suggested that he transfer to the psychiatric department.


    It was not easy for Seventh Uncle Mo to overcome his psychological problems and go to the psychiatric department. In the end, the quack doctor said a bunch of nonsense that he did not understand and prescribed a bunch of drugs.


    However, he did not seem to get better after taking them.


    With this thought in mind, Seventh Uncle Mo widened his eyes and said, ¡°What kind of drugs do I need to take? These drugs taste terrible. If they don¡¯t work after, I won¡¯t take them anymore in the future.¡±


    After saying that, he returned to his room in a huff. He wanted to turn on a television program to watch, but the television, which had been turned off, suddenly lit up. The screen flashed and a young man with golden hair appeared.


    ¡°Hi, can you see me?¡± The man greeted him.


    Seventh Uncle Mo looked at the television and said in a low voice, ¡°Am I poisoned?¡±


    ¡°No, no, no, you¡¯re not poisoned, but I guess in a way you are poisoned.¡± Jin Mao laughed heartily, revealing his white teeth. ¡°Seventh Uncle Mo, have you heard of Yun Shang?¡±


    Having his identity suddenly exposed, Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s pupils dilated. When he heard the words Yun Shang, Seventh Uncle Mo suddenly stopped and looked at the man on the television in disbelief.


    Jin Mao was very sure that after Seventh Uncle Mo heard the words ¡°Yun Shang,¡± he would be silent and afraid. The truth was just as Jin Mao thought. The corner of Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s mouth twitched, and he finally asked with trembling hands, ¡°Who are you exactly? What do you want to tell me?¡±


    Yun Shang did not only represent a bar. It was more like a gathering place for high-end people. Moreover, Yun Shang held many secrets, so many that it made people tremble in fear.


    Jin Mao was somewhat satisfied with Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s reaction, so he continued with a chuckle, ¡°I just want to ask you, have you been feeling dizzy recently, and are your memories often in a mess?¡±


    Seventh Uncle Mo stopped and his hands trembled. Not long after, he broke out in a cold sweat.


    ¡°How¡­ How did you know?¡±


    Jin Mao tilted his head and said in a flustered manner, ¡°I don¡¯t just know these things. I know everything that you know and don¡¯t.¡±


    This sentence was like a tongue twister, but it made Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s scalp go numb.


    Seventh Uncle Mo asked in trepidation, ¡°What¡­ what do you want to say?¡±


    Jin Mao flipped his hair. ¡°Sigh, I say, you don¡¯t seem to know a good person when you see one.¡±


    In Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s eyes, this action also seemed like a threat, so he didn¡¯t dare to say anything.


    ¡°I¡¯m really here to help you, why don¡¯t you believe me?¡±


    Seventh Uncle Mo said in a trembling voice, ¡°You basta¡ª no, no, what do you want to do, sir? What do you want me to do? As long as I can do it, I will help you.¡±


    Jin Mao pursed his lips. He was more or less unhappy. He was used to being unscrupulous. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to be a good person. In the end, it was the first time he had kept it up to this extent.


    He was unhappy, so he naturally did not want to play any more tricks with brother Mo. he said straightforwardly, ¡°You suddenly lost consciousness. It¡¯s not a problem with your body or mind. Someone has hypnotized you.¡±


    ¡°Hypnotized?!¡± Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s voice trembled. He realized that he had lost his composure and quickly withdrew. He put on an anxious look, which made Jin Mao feel even more unhappy.


    ¡°Alright, I can¡¯t be bothered to talk to you anymore. I¡¯ll just give you a reminder. Don¡¯t be a scapegoat who doesn¡¯t even know how he dies.¡±


    After Jin Mao finished speaking, he directly cut off the connection. Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s chubby face was reflected on the pitch-black television screen.


    Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s expression changed for a while. In the end, he suddenly laughed with a hint of craftiness, ¡°So it¡¯s hypnosis. Yun Shang¡¯s men are really stupid. If I had this information, how could I tell them so easily? Naturally, I have to plan well and get some benefits first.¡±


    However, the smile only lasted for a short while, and Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s expression turned ugly again. Who on earth had the guts to do such a thing to him?!


    On the other side, Jin Mao cut off contact with Seventh Uncle Mo, and his expression changed from a little defeated to his usual careless smile, ¡°Boss, what do you mean? That Seventh Uncle Mo¡¯s acting is terrible. Why do you want me to pretend that I can¡¯t tell?¡±


    Chi Xiao stirred the green leaves in front of him and said nonchalantly, ¡°If you watch two dogs biting at each other¡¯s fur, wouldn¡¯t you be happier than having to clean it up yourself?¡±

 Chapter 31 - Came To Find Her

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Jin Mao didn¡¯t quite understand Chi Xiao¡¯s words. When he saw Chi Xiao¡¯s high spirits, he immediately understood that this was a good time to ask questions, so he scratched his head, he asked a little shyly, ¡°Boss, what does this mean? Will you explain it to me?¡±


    Sure enough, Chi Xiao merely smiled at him and said, ¡°If you knew that someone was going to use your identity to do something that wasn¡¯t good for you, what would you do?¡±


    ¡°Naturally, I would smash his head to pieces!¡±


    After saying this, Jin Mao immediately understood. ¡°Boss, you want to let Seventh Uncle Mo find out who is behind this and watch the tigers fight?¡±


    Chi Xiao nodded.


    That was indeed what she meant.


    However, Chi Xiao continued, ¡°I¡¯m not watching the tigers fight while they sit on the mountain. I just said that they were two dogs; with a mouthful of fur; there isn¡¯t a single good thing about it.¡±


    Looking at Chi Xiao¡¯s expression, Jin Mao understood that his boss was really mesmerized by that young master of the Mo family. Didn¡¯t she hate everyone who went against Young Master Mo?


    As he patted his little heart, Jin Mao wanted to say something, but he heard a commotion outside the door.


    ¡°Mom is clearly inside. Why won¡¯t you let me in?¡±


    ¡°Nonsense, that¡¯s my Mom, the real Mom!¡±


    The child¡¯s voice was very penetrating. Through the door, the adult¡¯s voice outside the room was indistinct, but the child¡¯s voice was clear.


    ¡°Where did the child come from?¡± Jin Mao shook his head. ¡°That¡¯s why I said that I dislike children. It¡¯s so noisy that my head hurts.¡±


    For some reason, Jin Mao felt that his back was a little cold and his hair standing on end after saying that.


    However, before he could think about it, Chi Xiao had already walked over and opened the door. The little boy, who was outside the room, spread out his arms and waited for Chi Xiao to carry him.


    The security guard who had stopped the child at the door was about to say something, but Chi Xiao stopped him with a look.


    After picking the child up, Chi Xiao asked with a smile, ¡°How did Han Han get here?¡±


    Jin Mao saw the child open his eyes. With his round face, he called out loudly, ¡°Mom!¡±


    Then, he answered Chi Xiao¡¯s question.


    Jin Mao didn¡¯t care much about what Mo Han said. He only knew that he was about to be finished.


    After all, he already knew that their boss had lost a child four years ago, and that child had been found in the Mo family. Now, the child was standing in front of Chi Xiao and calling her mom affectionately. What did this mean?


    Jin Mao only wanted to lay low.


    When Chi Xiao heard Mo Han¡¯s words, she once again had doubts about the people around Mo Han.


    It turned out that Mo Han had come to the park with the nannies to play. When he happened to see Chi Xiao, he took the opportunity to shake off the nannies and followed Chi Xiao all the way here.


    Chi Xiao rubbed Mo Han¡¯s head, but in her heart, she thought that since Han Han was not even five years old, no matter how clever he was, he definitely could not avoid the sight of several nannies who had come to take care of him, unless these nannies had impure intentions, and they wanted Mo Han to get lost on purpose.


    Chi Xiao carried Mo Han into the room and said gently, ¡°Han Han, why did you want to lose the nannies? It¡¯s not safe.¡±


    After thinking for a while, Mo Han said, ¡°But the nannies were chatting and ignoring Han Han.¡±


    ¡°Ignoring you? How can that be?¡±


    Chi Xiao gently held Mo Han and looked at him. No matter how she looked at him, he was smart and as cute as snow. How could anyone not like him?


    Thinking of this, Chi Xiao glanced at Jin Mao who had shut himself up. Oh, there was one. Jin Mao was a hacker who didn¡¯t need love. He could just hug the computer for the rest of his life.


    ¡°The nannies treat me well at home, but they always ignore me after coming out.¡± Speaking of this, Mo Han felt a little dejected. He felt like he was hated by the nannies.


    Chi Xiao felt stifled and asked Mo Han gently, ¡°Which nanny carried Han Han today? Give me the phone and let me ask her.¡±


    It was rare for Mo Han to be a little shy. His small body was moving around, but it didn¡¯t feel steady, ¡°Is it really okay?¡±


    ¡°Of course it¡¯s okay. I¡¯m your mother. My son was bullied, so of course I have to stand up for him.¡±


    With that said, Mo Han giggled again, ¡°Okay!¡±


    After knowing which nanny was on duty today, Chi Xiao smiled coldly and took out the phone and called her.


    The nanny on duty was still chatting happily with the others on the other end, but she didn¡¯t expect to receive a call from Chi Xiao all of a sudden.


    The few of them looked at one another. In the end, the nanny reluctantly picked up the phone after rolling her eyes.


    ¡°Young Madam, what¡¯s the matter? I¡¯m taking the little master to play in the park.¡±


    What she meant was, if there¡¯s nothing else, hang up immediately and don¡¯t bother me.


    Chi Xiao sneered and asked, ¡°Is that so? Then let Han Han pick up the phone. I miss him and I want to talk to him.¡±


    At this time, the nanny finally looked at the area where Mo Han usually played. She was so shocked that she broke out in cold sweat. Mo Han had disappeared without anyone knowing..

 Chapter 32 - Going Back To Settle The Score

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°About¡­ this¡­¡± the nanny was so shocked that she could not speak. She could only repeat some meaningless words.


    Chi Xiao sneered again. ¡°What? Han Han is missing?¡±


    For a moment, the nanny¡¯s mind was suddenly filled with many scenes of court battles, such as a stepmother wanting to make room for her unborn child, so she finds someone to abduct the child left behind by the ex-wife, and so on. The nanny was trembling with fear, and she did not know what expression to use to face Chi Xiao who was questioning her.


    Hearing that there was no sound for a long time, Chi Xiao said, ¡°You don¡¯t even know where the child went. I think that you all are too negligent. I will settle this score with you all when we go back.¡±


    ¡°Ma- Madam, we¡­¡±


    She did not even call her Young Madam anymore. Instead, she called her using a more respectful title.


    Chi Xiao snorted and said, ¡°I heard from Han Han that you all usually ignore him when you go out?¡±


    As soon as she said this, the nanny broke out in a cold sweat. She looked at the people around her who still didn¡¯t understand the current situation. The nanny couldn¡¯t help but feel annoyed. Why did they have to bully Mo Han because he was young and why didn¡¯t they take him seriously?


    The nanny wanted to explain further, but Chi Xiao had already hung up the phone. The nanny could only shut her mouth resentfully.


    After a short while, she collapsed onto the ground.


    The surrounding people looked at her and asked in confusion, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    The nanny replied mechanically, ¡°The little master is lost.¡±


    The other nannies were shocked while she added another bomb, ¡°The young madam knows that we don¡¯t usually talk to the little master when we go out.¡±


    At this moment, all of the nannies collapsed onto the ground like zombies.


    Chi Xiao hung up the phone and looked at Mo Han with a smile, ¡°How is it? Have you vented your anger?¡±


    Mo Han felt a little uneasy. He lowered her head and asked in a low voice, ¡°Is that okay? Mom didn¡¯t say that I am by your side. Wouldn¡¯t we be wasting the nannies¡¯ efforts?¡±


    Chi Xiao rubbed Mo Han¡¯s small face and smiled happily, ¡°Han Han is so obedient. It¡¯s only right for you to be considerate, but you can¡¯t be too kind. You have to remember that.¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s attitude suddenly turned serious. ¡°If you¡¯re too kind, you¡¯ll be bullied.¡±


    These words were not only to teach Mo Han, but also to warn herself. Four years ago, she was naively kind to others. She only thought that Chi Rui was unfaithful, Chi Ying and her mother were just greedy, so she didn¡¯t think they were trouble, and she did not have her guard up against them, which resulted in the situation she was in today.


    She almost died, and her child had been separated from her for many years.


    When she thought of this, a violent emotion suddenly rose in Chi Xiao¡¯s heart. It was an emotion that wanted to disregard everything and completely destroy the people she hated.


    Taking a deep breath, Chi Xiao barely managed to control herself. After muttering many words in her heart, she finally relaxed a little.


    ¡°Mom, Mom?¡±


    Mo Han¡¯s series of gentle and clear cries calmed the final ruthlessness in Chi Xiao¡¯s heart. When she opened her eyes again, she turned again into Mo Han¡¯s gentle mother.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? What does Han Han want?¡±


    A blush appeared on Mo Han¡¯s face as he leaned on Chi Xiao¡¯s body and said somewhat embarrassedly, ¡°I want to¡­ I want to go to the toilet.¡±


    Chi Xiao laughed lightly, ¡°And here I was wondering what it was? Let¡¯s go, Mom will bring you to the toilet.¡±


    Unexpectedly, Mo Han shook his head like a rattle drum, ¡°Granny Wang said that men and women can¡¯t be intimate. Han Han has grown up, I can¡¯t let mom accompany me to the toilet anymore.¡±


    Granny Wang?


    Chi Xiao was stunned. She instantly understood that this ¡°Granny Wang¡± was probably one of the nannies in the house.


    She smiled and let Mo Han go, ¡°The toilet is over there. Can this brother here take you there?¡±


    Mo Han stared at Jin Mao for a while before nodding with a red face.


    Jin Mao didn¡¯t want to go, but Chi Xiao was looking at him. He immediately put down the things in his hands and caught up with Mo Han.


    Seeing the two of them enter the toilet, Chi Xiao¡¯s face darkened and she called Mo Ting.


    Mo Ting seemed to be in a good mood. He spoke lazily with a hint of a smile on his face.


    Chi Xiao sneered. ¡°You¡¯re still smiling at this time?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Mo Ting asked innocently.


    This voice immediately extinguished Chi Xiao¡¯s anger. She could even imagine that if Mo Ting was right in front of her, she would have opened her eyes wide and acted cute without realizing it.


    After losing her temper, Chi Xiao naturally would not argue with Mo Ting. She could only curl her lips and say, ¡°Han Han came to look for me just now. By himself.¡±


    She emphasised the last two words.


    Mo Ting was suddenly shocked. Even his voice was a little out of tune. ¡°What did you say? Han Han went to look for you by himself?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Chi Xiao¡¯s lips held a smile, but the smile did not match her eyes, ¡°I called the nanny who brought Han Han out to play. They didn¡¯t even know that Han Han had gone missing until I reminded them. Tell me, how can I trust Han Han to be by the side of such people?¡±


    Initially, she wasn¡¯t angry, but when she said this, Chi Xiao couldn¡¯t help but get angry again..

 Chapter 33 - Obedient

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Okay, okay. Don¡¯t be angry.¡± Mo Ting comforted her, ¡°I will punish those nannies. You have to ensure Han Han¡¯s safety. Also, don¡¯t let him run around alone in the future.¡±


    After a pause, Mo Ting felt a little guilty. ¡°It¡¯s also because I¡¯m too busy with work, so I pay less attention to him. That¡¯s why Han Han is often under the nannies.¡±


    After Mo Ting¡¯s reminder, Chi Xiao finally realized that Mo Han¡¯s personality was a little too shy.


    He wasn¡¯t like a normal boy at this age who would play around and cause trouble. Unless he was with someone he trusted, he would only be a little lively.


    ¡°I¡¯ll take good care of Han Han.¡± Chi Xiao hung up the phone after saying that.


    She hadn¡¯t been by her child¡¯s side for the past four years, and now her child had become like this.


    Chi Xiao took a deep breath, unable to calm down.


    ¡°Mom!¡± Mo Han¡¯s crisp voice sounded. Chi Xiao turned around and saw Mo Han running towards her with his arms spread open.


    She subconsciously squatted down and held Mo Han in her arms, ¡°Han Han is so obedient.¡±


    Mo Han pursed her lips and smiled, ¡°As long as I¡¯m obedient, Grandpa, Grandma, and the nannies will praise me.¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s breathing stopped and a moment later, she put on a smile again. ¡°Really? But Mom still likes Han Han to be naughty.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡±


    Blinking his big eyes, Mo Han didn¡¯t quite understand. Didn¡¯t adults like children to be obedient? Why was his mother different from ordinary people?


    Holding Mo Han, Chi Xiao swayed left and right, ¡°As a child, you have to act like a child. Being naughty is a privilege only children have.¡±


    Mo Han didn¡¯t quite understand, but he buried his head in Chi Xiao¡¯s shoulder. His mother was different from others. When his mother looked at him, the love in her eyes couldn¡¯t be hidden.


    Mo Han thought to himself, he liked his mother, he really liked her.


    After burying his head in her for a while, Mo Han actually fell asleep. Chi Xiao felt the regular undulations of the small body in her arms and suddenly laughed lightly.


    Seeing this, Jin Mao seemed to want to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Chi Xiao stopped him from talking.


    Chi Xiao carefully placed Mo Han in the resting room that was attached to the house. After closing the door, she shook her sore arm and said to Jin Mao, ¡°People like you who don¡¯t have children will not understand the destructive power of biological children.¡±


    Her words were a little playful, ¡°Perhaps the love for children is written in the genes.¡±


    Hearing that, Jin Mao lowered his head, Chi Xiao sneered, ¡°Of course, some animals are exceptions. No, calling them animals is an injustice to actual animals. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its own child. Some dirty people are really willing to sacrifice their children for money.¡±


    Chi Xiao had experienced this kind of experience, and so did Jin Mao.


    Jin Mao sighed. ¡°That¡¯s right. Who knows what those idiots are after.¡±


    Seeing Jin Mao¡¯s disappointment, Chi Xiao did not intend to comfort him. Some of the pain could only be overcome by oneself. After all, he was himself, so others could not sympathize with him.


    Chi Xiao was adjusting her makeup in front of the mirror. After a while, she raised her head again, and the ugly woman with scars all over her face suddenly transformed into a delicate and pretty girl with fair skin and exquisite facial features.


    This face was very different from Chi Xiao¡¯s original face.


    Jin Mao exclaimed, ¡°If I hadn¡¯t watched you change your face, I wouldn¡¯t have believed that such a magical technique really existed in this world.¡±


    Chi Xiao smiled and looked at the face with satisfaction. She whispered, ¡°Don¡¯t go with me later. Keep an eye on Han Han. When Han Han wakes up, play with him. Make sure he¡¯s safe.¡±


    With Jin Mao¡¯s solemn promise, Chi Xiao slowly walked out of the room and went to another room as planned.


    There were five or six people sitting restlessly in room 302. The oldest was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was tall and had a refined appearance. However, his face was pale, his lips were black, and his eyes were dark. He looked like he was seriously ill.


    The men and women surrounding the man did not look good.


    ¡°So, why are we wasting our time waiting for a charlatan? What kind of doctor would treat someone in a nightclub?¡±


    ¡°Xiao Ya! Don¡¯t speak so harshly. It¡¯s the famous Gui Jianchou, not just any charlatan.¡±


    ¡°Also, this is Yun Shang, not some low-class nightclub.¡±


    The girl named Xiao Ya had an ugly expression. She was obviously unconvinced by these two retorts. She straightened her neck and wanted to say something, but she heard the door of the private room open and saw a petite girl walked in.


    The girl even smiled and said, ¡°If this young lady doesn¡¯t trust me, you can go find someone else. But since you¡¯ve come to find me, you have to follow the rules I set. Am I right?¡±


    Other than Xiao Ya, everyone else nodded and bowed, agreeing with the pretty girl¡¯s words. Xiao Ya was surprised..

 Chapter 34 - Patient

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    The patient who was half dead and lying on the sofa was called You Wen. He was the current president of the You Group. He was also a ruthless character who could rely on his own strength to support the huge You Group.


    However, ever since You Wen suddenly fainted at a meeting and woke up again half a month ago, his condition had deteriorated. However, no matter how many doctors and experts were hired, the final result was that You Wen¡¯s body was strong, and there was no problem at all.


    Everyone was not blind, so they could naturally tell what was going on with You Wen. This caused them to be extremely worried.


    In the end, who knows why, but they managed to contact the legendary doctor, Gui Jianchou.


    After contacting Gui Jianchou, they were asked to meet in Yun Shang.


    When they saw her today, everyone was stunned.


    The legendary doctor was actually such a young and pretty girl?


    The moment Xiao Ya saw Chi Xiao, her face contorted for a moment. She immediately reprimanded her. ¡°Who are you? This is not a place for a woman like you to sell yourself.¡±


    Xiao Ya was You Wen¡¯s secretary. She had coveted a handsome man like You Wen for a long time. However, You Wen was too loyal to his wife who had passed away young. She had never found an opportunity.


    Now, these random girl who came out of nowhere actually wanted to take a share of You Wen¡¯s profits?


    No, she did not accept it.


    Hence, Xiao Ya¡¯s wariness towards Chi Xiao increased unilaterally.


    However, what Xiao Ya did not expect was that everyone else present did not seem to sense Chi Xiao¡¯s ¡°sinister intentions.¡± Everyone was looking at her with a complicated gaze.


    Chi Xiao spread her hands nonchalantly. ¡°Since you all feel that I don¡¯t have good intentions, then forget it. Go find someone else to treat your illness.¡±


    ¡°Legendary doctor, please wait a moment,¡± You Wen said. Blood had already seeped out from the corner of his mouth when he only said this sentence. His face was even more ashen. From this, it could be seen that You Wen¡¯s body was probably in bad shape.


    Just now, Chi Xiao had only wanted to embarrass that Xiao Ya. It was not that she really did not want to treat You Wen. She just wanted her to step down and keep quiet.


    Chi Xiao turned around and looked at You Wen¡¯s ugly expression. She clicked his tongue and said, ¡°If you still want to live, don¡¯t say anything.¡±


    You Wen obediently shut his mouth and waited for Chi Xiao to treat his illness. When Chi Xiao was treating him, he was very cooperative. He moved his hands and feet, and opened or close his eyes and mouth as instructed.


    After Chi Xiao¡¯s diagnosis was over, he widened his eyes and waited for Chi Xiao¡¯s answer.


    ¡°It¡¯s not a big problem. You¡¯re just poisoned.¡± Chi Xiao looked at You Wen, who was obviously not satisfied with this answer and continued, ¡°Finding the person who poisoned you is your own business. I¡¯m only responsible for treating your illness.¡±


    After she finished speaking, she pressed away on her phone again. Not long after, she typed out a prescription and sent it to You Wen in the form of a text message.


    ¡°Following this prescription, take one dose a day. Eat it for half a month first, then come to me for a follow-up consultation.¡±


    After saying that, Chi Xiao took out a silver needle and said, ¡°Now, I¡¯ll give you an injection to control the poison. Once is enough. The poison isn¡¯t too serious. You should be able to recover very quickly.¡±


    Xiao Ya and the others were chased out of the private room when Chi Xiao was injecting him.


    Xiao Ya still could not believe that such a young and beautiful woman was actually the legendary doctor, Gui Jianchou. Xiao Ya hugged her shoulders and leaned against the wall behind her, and she said, ¡°Could it be that this woman wants to use this method to get close to President You?¡±


    The man who had just reprimanded Xiao Ya looked at her with a shocked gaze. ¡°It has already come to this point. Why are you still spouting such nonsense? If you don¡¯t know how to speak, you¡¯d better not speak in the future.¡±


    She had never expected that her usually obedient superior would actually say such things about her because of a woman they had just met for the first time. Xiao Ya widened her eyes, appearing somewhat innocent.


    The man from earlier sighed and said, ¡°Gui Jianchou is a legendary doctor. No one knows what she really looks like. It¡¯s said that she can change her appearance. This time, you¡¯ve met a delicate and pretty girl. The next time, it might be an old man who¡¯s over seventy years old. Some even call Gui Jianchou the legendary thousand-faced doctor.¡±


    Seeing that Xiao Ya did not refute, the man continued, ¡°Gui Jianchou¡¯s medical skills are extremely high. Many incurable diseases unable to be cured by modern medicine have ended up in her hands, and in the end, Gui Jianchou will save the patient¡¯s life. Her greatest achievement was the head of the Luo family four years ago.¡±


    ¡°The Luo family?¡± Xiao Ya covered her mouth.


    There were rumors that the head of the Luo family had contracted stomach cancer four years ago. When it was discovered, it was already in the final stage. In less than half a month, the cancer cells had spread all over his body. It looked like he would not have many days left to live.


    However, just a few days ago, the head of the Luo family was still signing a contract with You Wen. He looked like he was in his prime and had no signs of being close to death.


    ¡°At that time, there was no guarantee that the head of the Luo family could be cured. All the doctors had asked the Luo family to prepare for the funeral of the old man. If it wasn¡¯t for Gui Jianchou, the Luo family would have been in a mess by now..¡±

 Chapter 35 - Cooperation

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    In the private room, Chi Xiao finished injecting You Wen and she put the needle back into the needle bag. Then, she looked at You Wen¡¯s expression.


    Seeing that it was much better, she said, ¡°The poison in your body is under control. Don¡¯t forget what you promised me.¡±


    You Wen felt the gradually rising strength in his body. He also started breathing comfortably for a while before saying, ¡°The legendary doctor is indeed a legendary doctor. Your medical skills are amazing.¡±


    There was no mention of the promise at all.


    Chi Xiao¡¯s hand that was withdrawing the needle paused. Then, she glanced at You Wen with a smile that was not a smile.


    It was just a light glance, but it actually made You Wen feel a chill in his body. He heard Chi Xiao actually laugh softly. ¡°Since you also said that I¡¯m a legendary doctor, then you should be very clear.¡±


    Chi Xiao suddenly stepped forward and was very close to You Wen¡¯s ear. As she spoke, she exhaled and actually gave You Wen goosebumps. ¡°If I can cure you, I can naturally make your life worse than death.¡±


    After saying that, she stood up again and looked down at You Wen who was still lying on the sofa. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I will let you live for a very, very long time. You will definitely not die halfway through. Trust my medical skills.¡±


    Unknowingly, You Wen was covered in cold sweat.


    He sat up and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead to hide the uneasiness in his heart. ¡°Of, of course I remember. You are overthinking. I will definitely not forget about the promise.¡±


    Chi Xiao calmly sat down on the other side. ¡°That¡¯s more like it. Tell me, what are you thinking of doing next?¡±


    If it wasn¡¯t because he knew about the rumors about Gui Jianchou, You Wen would have even suspected that the person who poisoned him was Gui Jianchou herself.


    Three days ago, he was still suffering from the torment of his illness. He prayed to the gods and asked the Buddha, because the medicine didn¡¯t care about him. His heart was filled with despair.


    After contacting Gui Jianchou, she only had one request for him. That was to cooperate with the Mo family¡¯s Mo Ting and work together to strengthen the Mo Ting influence in the Mo family.


    You Wen thought that it was strange. Mo Ting already had the greatest power and was the heir of the Mo family. Why would he need his help?


    However, in order to cure his illness, You Wen didn¡¯t care about anything else and agreed to Gui Jianchou¡¯s request in an instant.


    However, what rules did he have in his heart?


    Now that he was suddenly asked this question, You Wen only felt a headache. How was he going to answer this?


    Seeing this, Chi Xiao didn¡¯t get angry. Instead, she smiled gently and said, ¡°Since you¡¯re not going back on your word, that¡¯s great. I don¡¯t need you to do anything special. Instead of working with the fourth uncle from the Mo family, you just need to change to working with one of Mo Ting¡¯s subordinates.¡±


    It was that simple?


    You Wen did not believe it.


    The You family and the Mo family did have business dealings. He was used to working with Fourth Uncle Mo, but if it¡¯s just working with a different person from the Mo family, who wouldn¡¯t do it?


    You Wen agreed without hesitation. In his heart, he vaguely understood Chi Xiao¡¯s meaning.


    There were probably internal problems within the Mo family . If he did not work with Fourth Uncle Mo anymore, it would be equivalent to weakening Fourth Uncle Mo¡¯s authority in the Mo family. Why did the legendary doctor do this? It was said that Mo Ting also suffered from a terminal illness?


    With this thought in mind, You Wen looked at Chi Xiao with an assessing gaze. In his heart, he repeatedly wondered if the legendary doctor, Gui Jianchou, had something to do with Mo Ting? Otherwise, why would she go to so much trouble to help Mo Ting?


    Once some thoughts appeared, it was as if they had taken root and sprouted in his heart. No matter how hard he tried, he could not remove them.


    Chi Xiao only looked coldly at You Wen. After a moment, she laughed softly. ¡°It¡¯s good that you know what to do. It¡¯s not like I saved you for nothing.¡±


    After saying that, she pushed open the door and left.


    The person guarding the door was Xiao Ya.


    However, at this moment, Xiao Ya no longer dared to belittle Chi Xiao. After meeting Chi Xiao face to face, her mindless speech just now instantly came to her mind. After pausing for a moment, Xiao Ya forced out a smile, ¡°Legendary doctor, I¡¯m really sorry about what happened just now. I¡¯m just someone who sometimes talks too fast.¡±


    Chi Xiao looked at Xiao Ya and laughed after a while. ¡°You¡¯re very smart. It¡¯s not like you can¡¯t make a name for yourself by relying on yourself.¡±


    After saying that, while Xiao Ya was still in a daze, she leaned over and asked Xiao Ya, ¡°Why do you have to place all your hopes on a man?¡±


    After saying that, she walked away. By the time Xiao Ya reacted, Chi Xiao was already nowhere to be seen in the corridor. Xiao Ya¡¯s expression changed for a while before it finally froze on a determined expression.


    If she¡­ if she worked hard, would she one day be like the legendary doctor? Would she be able to gain everyone¡¯s respect just by relying on herself?


    Would she be able to live as she pleased?


    As she was thinking about it, You Wen called out her name. After Xiao Ya entered the room, You Wen seemed to have forgotten his cold expression towards Xiao Ya. He reached out and held Xiao Ya¡¯s hand, he said affectionately, ¡°You have always been affectionate towards me. I can see it in my eyes and remember it in my heart. Xiao Ya, are you willing to give me a chance to take good care of you in the future?¡±


    If it was in the past, Xiao Ya would naturally be happy to agree. However, for some reason, the legendary doctor¡¯s words just now kept ringing in her ears. In the end, she actually rejected You Wen..

    She had won an ally for Mo Ting and had even hindered an uncle who was always ambitious. Chi Xiao was very happy. When she returned to the room, Mo Han was still asleep.


    Jin Mao had already moved a small stool and sat by the bed in the lounge. He stared at Mo Han without blinking.


    Chi Xiao was almost amused by Jin Mao¡¯s strange brain circuits.


    Was he was staring at Han Han so that Han Han would open his eyes to his big face and faint from fear?


    Therefore, Chi Xiao walked over and pinched his ear before Jin Mao could react, pulling him out of the lounge.


    ¡°Ouch, ouch, it hurts.¡± Jin Mao looked at Chi Xiao with a wronged expression and rubbed his poor ear with a frown.


    Chi Xiao said unhappily as she removed her makeup, ¡°Alright, stop acting. We¡¯re already so familiar with each other. Don¡¯t you know how much strength I use?¡±


    Having been exposed, Jin Mao had no choice but to put his hand down and asked seriously, ¡°Boss, do you really think that children are a good thing?¡±


    When he saw Chi Xiao¡¯s somewhat ugly expression, Jin Mao was unusually alert and said, ¡°Although Han Han is very good-looking and very cute, I still don¡¯t like children.¡±


    Chi Xiao sneered, ¡°You believe that? Other than staring at the computer screen and stopping for a while, what else can you do for two hours?¡±


    What she said was also true. Jin Mao sighed slightly. He felt that he had been possessed. Otherwise, how could he stare at a child for so long?


    Chi Xiao changed back to her disguise and waited patiently for Mo Han to wake up. She took some time to look at Jin Mao and a smile slowly appeared on her face. Jin Mao was a typical person with a high IQ and a low EQ.


    Not long after, Mo Han woke up. He opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings. He was a little confused. When he saw Chi Xiao standing by his bed, he immediately giggled, ¡°Good afternoon, Mom.¡±


    Obviously, he remembered that it was noon when he went to sleep.


    Chi Xiao carried Mo Han and shook him in her arms. After Mo Han got used to it, she asked, ¡°Are you hungry? Let¡¯s go eat something and then go home.¡±


    Mo Han strongly agreed. On the way, Chi Xiao carried him and said happily, ¡°We¡¯re going home! We¡¯re going home to see Dad!¡±


    Her ending tone were rising. It was obvious that she was very happy.


    When the two of them returned to the Mo family, it was already dark. The few nannies were guarding the entrance of the Mo family with worried faces. When they saw Chi Xiao and Mo Han getting out of the car, their faces relaxed, and a sullen expression immediately appeared on their faces.


    The person in the lead walked over and looked at Chi Xiao with an unfriendly expression. ¡°Young Madam, you shouldn¡¯t have tormented us like this. Why didn¡¯t you tell us that you¡¯ve picked the little master up? You just asked us to waste the entire afternoon.¡±


    Chi Xiao was almost amused by this person¡¯s shameless words. Seeing that the nannies were unrepentant and even wanted to shirk off their responsibility, Chi Xiao did not bother with this person. She carried Mo Han out of the car and walked towards the old residence.


    ¡°Eh? Madam!¡±


    ¡°Madam!¡±


    The nanny kept calling Chi Xiao from behind. However, Chi Xiao did not have the slightest intention of stopping. Soon, she was stopped by the others.


    ¡°What we should be thinking about now is how to avoid taking responsibility for this matter.¡±


    Under the persuasion of the other nannies, the nanny finally remembered her current identity. She was immediately frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. Chi Xiao¡¯s gaze just now was too cold, as if she was looking at a dead person.


    However, this was what made the nanny cry out against injustice. If worst came to worst, she would just quit her job at the Mo family. Why would she have to endure Chi Xiao¡¯s arrogance?


    With a way out, the nanny was no longer in a hurry. Instead, she slowly walked into the house. The other nannies beside her did not understand Chi Xiao¡¯s reaction. However, seeing that Chi Xiao had already disappeared from the door, they quickly chased after her.


    In the house, Mo Ting and Chi Xiao seemed to have a telepathic connection. He was actually already waiting in the hall. Sitting beside him was Su Ling. At this moment, Su Ling¡¯s expression was very gentle. It seemed like she did not know that Mo Han had been mistreated by the nannies.


    Chi Xiao entered the house and first greeted Su Ling. Right now, Su Ling was extremely satisfied with Chi Xiao. She smiled and acknowledged the greeting. Then, she caught Mo Han who was rushing over like a small cannonball, and she asked with a smile, ¡°Han Han, did you go out to play with your mother?¡±


    Mo Han was an obedient and honest child. After listening to Su Ling¡¯s words, it was slightly different from what he knew, hence, he shook his head and said, ¡°No. Today, Granny Wang and the others took Han Han out to play, but they only cared about chatting among themselves and they ignored me. I happened to see Mom passing by and went to look for her.¡±


    Su Ling¡¯s heart skipped a beat. She forced a smile and asked, ¡°Han Han, did you go to look for Mom by yourself? Or were you accompanied by a nanny?¡±


    Mo Han raised his head and looked like he was asking for praise. ¡°I went to look for Mom by myself. Grandma, is Han Han a good boy?¡±


    Su Ling¡¯s gaze landed on Chi Xiao. After getting confirmation from her, she suddenly felt a little dizzy..

 Chapter 37 - Why Bother?

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    Thank Buddha¡¯s blessings that Mo Han didn¡¯t get lost on his own. He actually managed to stumble across Chi Xiao and follow her.


    As Su Ling heaved a sigh of relief, she suddenly thought of the few nannies that followed Mo Han out. What exactly were they doing? A few people couldn¡¯t even keep an eye on a child?


    Suddenly, she thought of what Mo Han had said. The nannies did not pay much attention to Mo Han after they left the house, so she suddenly paused.


    Then, she asked in detail.


    When the nannies entered the house, they coincidentally heard Mo Han¡¯s young and tender voice saying that they did not speak to him when they left the house. Immediately, their legs went weak and they felt dizzy.


    ¡°You all are really something.¡±


    Seeing the few nannies enter, Su Ling sneered and looked at them coldly. They looked at one another and no one dared to stand out. Su Ling only felt that after raising them for so many years, the Mo family only raised ingrates.


    When the leader saw that Su Ling was really angry, she immediately didn¡¯t dare to say anything about changing jobs. She explained that these were all misunderstandings and they didn¡¯t ignore Mo Han.


    The commotion was a little loud and Mo Jun, who was resting upstairs, was startled. When he saw the old nanny and Chi Xiao¡¯s arrogant look, he assumed that Chi Xiao was looking for trouble, and he was immediately unhappy and glared at her.


    ¡°It¡¯s you again. Ever since you entered the Mo family, the Mo family has never had peace. I really don¡¯t know if Young Ting married you to be happy or to make the family unhappy.¡±


    The words were very unpleasant, but Chi Xiao did not care at all. On the contrary, Mo Ting raised his eyelids and glanced coldly at Mo Jun.


    Mo Jun felt his limbs go soft under this glance, however, he still forced himself to say, ¡°Am I wrong? You¡¯ve been suffering from illness for the past days. Now that she¡¯s finally stopped bringing misfortune to you, her next target is the child. Do you want to bring misfortune to everyone in the family in the future?¡±


    Su Ling was so angry at Mo Jun¡¯s words that her chest hurt. However, she was also clear that Mo Jun had never liked Chi Xiao. Therefore, whenever she was around, he would always be especially mean. It was as if this would make up for the fact that he had some other woman outside.


    ¡°Is that so?¡± Mo Ting¡¯s voice was lazy. ¡°Father, if you¡¯re afraid, then go out and look for that woman. You¡¯ve also bought a lot of things for her over the years. She probably makes you sleep well too.¡±


    After being choked by Mo Ting, Mo Jun¡¯s face turned into a dark brown. His originally face now looked ridiculously ugly.


    ¡°Father, you¡¯d better remember who helped you for you to be able to buy things for that woman. If you hadn¡¯t married mother, what would you be doing now?¡±


    All these years, when Mo Jun was dreaming in the middle of the night, he always wondered that if he had insisted on eloping with his true love back then, would it have been different from now?


    The more he thought about it, the more Mo Jun felt this way. His attitude towards Su Ling also became worse. Looking at Mo Ting, who was born to Su Ling, he was even more furious.


    Now that Mo Ting had asked him this question, Mo Jun faintly felt that it was a little terrifying. Could it be that this eldest son of his, who was as intelligent as a demon, really knew everything?


    Meeting Mo Ting¡¯s gaze, Mo Jun could not help but reflect on himself. Was it really as Mo Ting had said?


    ¡°What¡­ what are you talking about? I¡¯m your father!¡±


    After Mo Jun finished speaking, his expression changed. He turned around and was about to go upstairs when he heard Mo Ting¡¯s indifferent voice from downstairs, ¡°Oh right, the man I should call younger brother went to the casino a few days ago. If you rushed there now, that woman¡¯s house shouldn¡¯t have been taken away yet.¡±


    Mo Jun was suddenly shocked and pointed at Mo Ting. ¡°You, you¡­¡±


    He was standing there, and no words could come out.


    Chi Xiao asked with a smile, ¡°Shouldn¡¯t you be going? Otherwise, it¡¯ll really be too late.¡±


    Mo Jun then glared at the three people on the sofa. He didn¡¯t even have time to put on his coat before hurrying out.


    The moment Mo Jun left, Mo Ting¡¯s expression turned ugly. Even Su Ling, who was standing at the side, could feel Mo Ting¡¯s anger. She could only pat Mo Ting on the shoulder. She comforted him, ¡°It¡¯s alright. Don¡¯t you know how your father is?¡±


    The nannies, who had witnessed a family drama, had ugly expressions on their faces. All of them stood like quails in fear, afraid that they would be harmed because they knew too much.


    Chi Xiao sneered when she noticed them. ¡°Forget it. You should be grateful to the socialist system. You¡¯re fired. Hurry up and pack up.¡±


    As if they had been granted amnesty, the few nannies bowed and left. Mo Ting looked at Chi Xiao. He didn¡¯t understand why Chi Xiao would take it so lightly this time.


    Chi Xiao smiled coldly and rubbed her hands. ¡°In the future, they won¡¯t have another chance to establish themselves in the capital. However, after they¡¯ve seen the prosperity of the capital, how could they be willing to serve in other places?¡±


    To kill, going for the heart was the most effective..

 Chapter 38 - Dinner Back At Home

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After sending away the four nannies, Su Ling found an excuse to send Mo Ting away. She held Chi Xiao¡¯s hand and said, ¡°Actually, I also don¡¯t like Mo Jun.¡±


    When she saw Chi Xiao¡¯s round eyes, Su Ling even pursed her lips into a smile.


    This smile looked quite charming like a young girl¡¯s.


    ¡°I had someone I liked before I got married. It¡¯s just that something happened to that person, so it could be said that I wasn¡¯t fated to be with him. You know, in this world, the living can never compete with the dead in memories.¡±


    ¡°I have someone in my heart, and Mo Jun also has someone in his heart. We both knew that in the early years, and we could barely treat each other with respect, but in recent years, we haven¡¯t been able to.¡± Mo Jun cared more about his small family outside, and I didn¡¯t care either. But Young Ting, that child, always spoke up for me. It¡¯s been really hard on him.¡±


    Chi Xiao felt as if something was stuck in her throat. She wanted to say something, but she had an indescribable feeling.


    Su Ling patted Chi Xiao¡¯s shoulder, and her lips curved into a smile as she said, ¡°Actually, I¡¯ve known for a long time that as a child of an aristocratic family, apart from enjoying the advantages brought by the family, one cannot decide on their own marriage. ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m very gratified to see that you and Young Ting have such a good relationship.¡±


    * * *


    Su Ling¡¯s words were like a huge rock pressing down on Chi Xiao¡¯s heart. She thought about how when Mo Ting talked to her at night, she was always a little disinterested.


    Coincidentally, at this moment, Chi Rui called.


    Chi Xiao only took a glance before taking the call. On the other end, Chi Rui still sounded as high and mighty as before. She spoke in a patronizing tone, ¡°You and Little Ting haven¡¯t come home since you got married. I think tomorrow is a good day. Get ready to return home.¡±


    Whoever gave Chi Rui the illusion that he could speak in a patronizing tone after becoming Mo Ting¡¯s father-in-law?


    Normally, Chi Xiao would not say anything. At most, she would hang up the phone. But today, Chi Xiao was not in a good mood, so she sneered and asked, ¡°Father, do you think that the Chi family is now prosperous and that¡¯s why you call Mo Ting like that?¡±


    Chi Xiao had barely finished her sentence when Chi Rui¡¯s scolding came from the other end of the line. It was nothing more than ¡°Ingrate,¡± ¡°Ungrateful,¡± and so on.


    Chi Xiao scratched her ears and interrupted Chi Rui¡¯s words. Her voice was cold as she said, ¡°Are you done? If you are, I¡¯ll hang up.¡±


    ¡°Chi Xiao!¡±


    His voice was a little hoarse at the end of his scolding. It was obvious that he couldn¡¯t take it anymore.


    However, Chi Xiao did not seem to mind. ¡°What does father want to say? Don¡¯t you know what kind of place the Mo family is? Or is it your wife who doesn¡¯t know? Do you think I¡¯m capable enough to make Mo Ting obey you?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t Mo Ting a cripple now? He can¡¯t even walk.¡± Chi Rui softened his tone slightly. It seemed like he really wanted Chi Xiao to bring Mo Ting back.


    ¡°Father is very well-informed. I wonder if I have the honor to know who your source is?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t speak nonsense! Bring Mo Ting back for dinner tomorrow.¡±


    Chi Xiao¡¯s expression also turned cold as she hung up the phone. The Chi family definitely had some ulterior motives for inviting them to dinner at this time. She turned her head to look at Mo Ting, who was staring at her with a smile, and Chi Xiao immediately pretended to be angry as she said, ¡°Do you know who¡¯s the one I¡¯m worrying about? Why are you still smiling?¡±


    The two of them laughed for a while, but Chi Xiao didn¡¯t realize that when she was with Mo Ting, she was already more relaxed. They even had some ambiguous interactions from time to time.


    ¡°Alright, let¡¯s get back to business. What do you think about the Chi Family?¡± Chi Xiao retracted her hand that was holding Mo Ting¡¯s hair and asked in a serious tone.


    Mo Ting also tidied up his clothes before he coughed and replied, ¡°It looks like the person behind the scenes can¡¯t hold it in any longer.¡±


    Speaking up to this point, Mo Ting asked a question that was always in his heart. ¡°You previously said that you were marrying me on behalf of your sister. Then, why did the Chi family marry your sister over in the first place?¡±


    After a pause, Mo Ting deliberated on his words and asked again, ¡°The Chi family is not qualified to speak to the Mo family. Then, how did grandfather know that the Chi family was going to marry your sister over?¡±


    In the next second, the two of them said in unison, ¡°They knew the person behind the scenes.¡±


    ¡°However, the person behind the scenes probably didn¡¯t expect that the Chi family wanted the Mo family¡¯s help and didn¡¯t want Chi Ying to marry a person who was about to die, so they used me as a replacement.¡±


    Mo Ting chuckled. ¡°They also didn¡¯t expect that not only did you get along well with me, you were also resourceful and not inferior to me.¡±


    The answer was very clear.


    Hence, the person behind the scenes became anxious.


    Chi Xiao had disrupted their plans several times, making them anxious. Hence, they instructed Chi Rui to get Chi Xiao to bring Mo Ting back with her. Perhaps there would something mysterious going on during the meal.


    It was even more likely that this meal was a ¡°Feast at Hongmen,¡± a feast held with the intention of murdering a guest


    ¡°A feast at Hongmen.¡± Chi Xiao rubbed her chin and thought for a moment. ¡°Do you still want to go?¡±


    Mo Ting shrugged. ¡°Why not? I just don¡¯t know if my little wife is willing to go with me..¡±

 Chapter 39 - He Looked Familiar

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    ¡°Of course I have to go. His excuse is for me to return home with you. If I¡¯m not there, how does that work?¡±


    The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They probably understood that the other party did not have any good intentions.


    The next afternoon.


    Chi Xiao and Mo Ting arrived at the Chi family home early in the morning. They were so early that Chi Rui did not even rush back from the company.


    As soon as they entered the Chi family home, Chi Xiao could smell a complex scent that was neither fragrant nor smelly. They looked at each other and a flash appeared in their eyes as they had an understanding.


    Chi Xiao and Mo Ting arrived so suddenly that Chi Ying did not even have the time to retract the smug look on her face.


    Qi Yun was still older and had experienced more storms, so her reaction was faster. Before Chi Xiao could speak, she walked up to her with a smile on her face that was barely squeezed out, ¡°Xiao Xiao and Mo¡­ Mo Ting are here? Come, come and sit.¡±


    Chi Xiao looked at the wrinkles on Qi Yun¡¯s face and suddenly laughed out loud. ¡°Sure, I just don¡¯t know where to sit.¡±


    There was only one sofa in the room, and Chi Ying occupied the center of the sofa.


    It went without saying what Chi Xiao meant.


    If it was in the past, Chi Ying would definitely quarrel endlessly. But now, Chi Ying was only stunned for a moment. Then, as if nothing had happened, she patted her butt and stood up from the sofa. She even said, ¡°I¡¯ll wash some fruits for you.¡±


    The Chi family was not as big as the Mo family. They also could not hire as many nannies as the Mo family. The Chi family only had one nanny, Aunt Li, who had been around for many years. Recently, Aunt Li¡¯s health had been declining, and Chi Yun was still planning to find a new nanny.


    Sitting on the sofa with Mo Ting, Chi Xiao listened to Qi Yun speak calmly and confidently. This was the first time Chi Xiao realized that Qi Yun actually knew how to speak. She looked at Qi Yun with a smile that was not a smile, and it made her face turn pale.


    In the end, she could not take it any longer and said, ¡°How about this, I¡¯ll call your father and see when he¡¯ll be back. Seriously, he clearly knows that his daughter is coming home today, so why isn¡¯t he back yet?¡±


    Hence, only Mo Ting and Chi Xiao were left in the living room.


    ¡°What do you think this fragrance is?¡± Chi Xiao asked softly.


    Mo Ting responded in a soft voice, ¡°It¡¯s probably something that makes people feel weak. It can¡¯t be something interesting, right?¡±


    The two of them did not talk for long before Chi Rui returned with a middle-aged man.


    The moment the middle-aged man saw Mo Ting, his eyes suddenly widened. He quickly stepped forward and shook Mo Ting¡¯s hand repeatedly. ¡°Young Master Mo, your reputation precedes you. I¡¯ve wanted to meet you for a long time. It¡¯s a pity that my status isn¡¯t high enough. It¡¯s also a pity that I never had the chance to meet you.¡±


    These words were spoken in a way that made people feel like he was putting on airs.


    Chi Xiao looked at this person and vaguely thought that he looked familiar. She then shifted his gaze to Mo Ting. As she watched Mo Ting speak in a manner that wasn¡¯t considered smooth, she faintly laughed in her heart.


    When had the dignified Young <aster Mo ever done such a thing?


    When was it his turn to exchange pleasantries with others?


    This was also his first time.


    ¡°Look at you guys, why are you talking at the door? Come quickly, the food has just been prepared. Wash your hands, it¡¯s time to eat.¡± Qi Yun wiped her hands, and those who did not know what was going on would definitely mistake Qi Yun for a good wife and mother.


    ¡°Sister-in-law is really kind.¡± The man who followed Chi Rui over smiled and flattered, ¡°If this were your sister-in-law, she wouldn¡¯t even be willing to put on a show, let alone cook a meal.¡±


    As he spoke, he sighed again, appearing even more pretentious.


    Sensing Chi Xiao¡¯s confusion, Mo Ting asked casually, ¡°May I know your name?¡±


    The man patted his head and said, ¡°Look at me, I¡¯ve already forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Chen Hui. I¡¯m the artistic director of Xingsheng Group. This is my business card.¡±


    Chen Hui?


    Chen Hui¡­


    This name sounded a little familiar.


    When she looked at Chen Hui¡¯s face again, she felt that she had seen this face somewhere before.


    Chi Xiao was a little uncertain. She turned to look at Mo Ting. However, she saw that Mo Ting¡¯s expression suddenly became ugly. Just by seeing his look, she knew who this Chen Hui was.


    However, due to the fact that there were a lot of people present, it was not appropriate for Chi Xiao to ask. Hence, she could only suppress this doubt in her heart. During this meal, she also paid a lot of attention to this Chen Hui.


    However, Chen Hui was too active. The more she looked at him, the more he looked like a clown. He did not match up to the resourceful image of a mastermind.


    After dinner, when Chi Rui and Chen Hui were about to drink with Mo Ting, Chi Xiao suddenly looked at the side of Chen Hui¡¯s face and remembered where she had seen him before.


    To be exact, she had never seen Chen Hui before. Instead, she had seen a photo of Chen Hui¡¯s younger sister!


    Chen Hui was actually the brother of Mo Jun¡¯s true love.


    The two siblings were had the same mother and looked very similar. No wonder Chi Xiao found Chen Hui familiar at first glance.


    At this moment, Chi Xiao looked at Mo Ting again. His hands were tense, and his eyes were cold and stern. It was obvious that he was extremely patient.


    Chi Xiao could not help but place her hand on the back of Mo Ting¡¯s hand. When she looked at Mo Ting, there was a hint of worry in her eyes.


    On the other hand, Mo Ting gave her a comforting smile..

 Chapter 40 - The Ones Behind The Scenes

    Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


    After the meal, Chen Hui looked at Mo Ting and suddenly laughed. He changed his tone and said, ¡°Young Master Mo, I have a business deal that I want to work with you on. I wonder when you might be free to sign a contract with me?¡±


    His superior tone seemed to have come from knowing that Mo Ting would not reject him.


    What was even stranger was that the three Chi family members still acted as if it was a matter of course. There was not the slightest bit of abnormality.


    ¡°Oh?¡±


    Mo Ting¡¯s ambiguous ¡°Oh¡± made Chen Hui furrow his brows. There was a little displeasure on his face. He stretched out his hand in front of Mo Ting to grab something. When he saw Mo Ting¡¯s eyeballs follow his hand moving to the watch on his other hand¡­ he then heaved a sigh of relief.


    After Mo Ting¡¯s gaze landed on Chen Hui¡¯s watch, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness. It was as if fireworks had appeared in front of his eyes. It took a full three to four seconds before he returned to normal.


    This feeling surprised Mo Ting.


    This Chen Hui was actually a hypnotist?


    Chi Xiao also followed Mo Ting¡¯s gaze and looked over. The surface of the watch on Chen Hui¡¯s wrist was uneven, and there seemed to be something mysterious about it.


    The dial of his watch also had layers of wave-like vortexes, which seemed to flow with the movement of the hands.


    This watch was specially made!


    Chi Xiao looked at Chen Hui, only to see him averting his eyes, not daring to look at the watch at all.


    So it turned out that Chen Hui did not know hypnosis. The thing that had the hypnotic effect was actually such a watch?


    ¡°I think now is a good time. Why don¡¯t we sign the contract now?¡±


    As he spoke, Chen Hui took out a thin page of the contract from his briefcase.


    Chi Xiao poked her head out to take a look. The contract was written very simply. Chen Hui¡¯s responsibilities were written in a vague manner, but what he could get was clear and clear. He had such a huge appetite.


    Chi Xiao thought that those who could sign such a contract must be philanthropists.


    However, Mo Ting was now ¡°controlled¡± and listened to Chen Hui. He rubbed his pocket for a while before he mechanically¡­ with some regret, said, ¡°It¡¯s a pity that I didn¡¯t bring a pen. Let¡¯s sign Mr. Chen¡¯s contract another time.¡±


    It was not easy to get such a good opportunity, so how could Chen Hui give it up?


    He quickly took out a pen from his briefcase and stuffed it into Mo Ting¡¯s hand. ¡°I have a pen here. Quickly sign it.¡±


    Chi Xiao could not hold back her laughter.


    Mo Ting held the pen in his hand. Just as he was about to sign where Chen Hui¡¯s finger was, he suddenly stopped and threw the pen on the ground. ¡°I¡¯m not used to using this kind of pen.¡±


    ¡°¡­¡± Chen Hui was anxious to death. Why was this Mo Ting acting like a young master at a time like this?


    Wasn¡¯t it enough that he could write with it?


    Hence, he bent down and picked up the pen from the ground. He stuffed it into Mo Ting¡¯s palm again and said forcefully, ¡°You¡¯re used to using this pen.¡±


    Mo Ting lowered his head and looked at the pen in his hand strangely. This time, his eldest young master¡¯s temper flared up. He threw the pen far away and accidentally threw it out of the window, and he even reprimanded Chen Hui. ¡°Who are you? How dare you talk to me like that?¡±


    It had to be said that not only did Young Master Mo act like a sickly man with ease, but he also had such an arrogant and ostentatious character. He did not seem out of place at all.


    Chi Xiao could already see the impatience on Chen Hui¡¯s face.


    Just as Chen Hui was about to say something else, a woman came down from upstairs. She had a graceful figure and her slender white hand rested on the ink-colored handrail of the Chi family¡¯s stairs, giving her a hint of charm.


    The woman said slowly, ¡°Brother, what are you doing?¡±


    Her voice was very gentle and her tone was neither fast nor slow. However, this made Chen Hui¡¯s expression change drastically. His eyes looked left and right, in the end, he could only say with a smile, ¡°Little sister, why did you come down? Didn¡¯t I say that I will settle these things?¡±


    The woman who came down was Mo Jun¡¯s true love, Chen Hui¡¯s little sister, Chen Yu.


    Chen Yu was about to scold Chen Hui when she saw Chi Xiao looking at her with a smile. When their gazes met¡­ Chi Xiao said a little embarrassedly, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Uncle Mo¡¯s true love to be such a charming type. I thought all men liked fragile little flowers.¡±


    Mo Ting, who should have been hypnotized and listened to them, actually replied, ¡°It¡¯s probably not fragile little flowers that he likes, right? It¡¯s clearly her face that he likes.¡±


    Chi Xiao felt that what he said made sense, so she smiled and nodded in agreement. She even took the time to greet Chen Yu.


    ¡°Thank you for taking care of us during this period of time. Now, I have some understanding of hypnosis. Otherwise, you guys would have really succeeded.¡±


    Chen Yu¡¯s expression changed drastically. She immediately knew that Mo Ting must have been prepared. That was why he was on guard against them and their hypnoses failed.


    However, Chen Yu was not in a hurry. She hugged her shoulders and sneered, ¡°Is that so? But don¡¯t you feel weak all over? Is it difficult to breathe?¡±


    Chi Xiao and Mo Ting looked at each other, then, Chen Yu said, ¡°Actually, I didn¡¯t think that I could use hypnosis to control you. After all, this kind of thing is useless to those with a strong will. I even prepared a second hand.¡±


    ¡°The incense in this room, together with the food you just ate, is a rare poison. Don¡¯t worry, as long as you listen obediently, you will be safe and sound..¡±
