Chapter 90: Come Home with Me
For Mo Li’s sake, this old professor who was over 80 learned how to use the social media. Professor Tao Wen had been fidgeting with the buttons for about 4 hours before he completed his verification process and posted his first comment. “Miss Mo Li has extremely high logical thinking ability. Her understanding of mathematics is also highly unique. She scored a perfect mark for the mock exam. I designed the mock exam’s questions myself and it is harder than the actual IMO. With such brilliance, she didn’t need to resort to cheating.”
“You’re a disgrace to your own career. You’ve wasted decades of studying.”
“How much money you’ve received from the Mo Family to give the girl a perfect mark for her mock exam?”
“You won’t be bringing those money into the coffin with you anyway, why would you do this? For shame!”
…
That night, Mo Li topped the hot topic searches.
“Mo Li, the Cheater.”
“Mo Li’s debut.”
“Disgraceful Mo Family!”
When the two elders from Mo Family found out about this, they were so pissed they could barely speak. What was wrong with these people and their reluctance to let their Sweetie be?!
Everyone assumed Mo Li would spend her days in shame and tears, trying to prove her ‘innocence’. However, Mo Li was the person least affected by the rumors, she kept on with her life as usual. Mo Li ignored the gossips at school and based on her observation, Nie Li didn’t seem like she wanted to hide anything about Mo Li’s foray into the entertainment business either. If anything, thanks to the popularity of these topics, Nie Li managed to find 2 product endorsements for Mo Li.
…
After school, Mo Li walked out the gate and ran into Qiao Qing. Qiao Qing was walking towards the Mo Family car. Nowadays, She was chauffeured to and from school. This was an arrangement insisted by Mo Zheng.
The car Qiao Qing used was originally given to Mo Li by Mo Li’s parents. Since Mo Li had moved out from the house, the car and the driver were inherited by Qiao Qing.
Elder Mo had arranged Mo Li’s old driver to use a different car to fetch Mo Li. So Qiao Qing had taken over the resources that previously belonged to Mo Li.
To be honest, Qiao Qing enjoyed the feeling of having her personal chauffeur. She would get that sense of superiority whenever she felt the envious gazes from her classmates as she got into the car.
During this period, one of Qiao Qing’s admirers had saved some money to buy her a bicycle. Qiao Qing thanked him graciously but rejected his kindness with the excuse that she didn’t know how to ride a bicycle… But the fact was Qiao Qing cycled every day to school before she had her personal chauffeur.
When Qiao Qing saw Mo Li, Qiao Qing walked towards Mo Li and said, “Li Li, mom and dad are waiting at home for you. Why don’t you come home with me today? Everyone misses you, especially your brother, Mo Zheng!”?He misses you so much he can’t think about anything else but how to take revenge on you!
“About your cheating… Don’t pay it any heed, I believe you.”
Hearing that, Mo Li stopped. “Thank you for saying that.”
“Of course, Li Li, you’re my big sister. I know you were simply confused by the feeling of vanity. As long as you come clean, I am sure the officers from the committee will let this go. After all, to err is to be human. Everyone will make mistakes, won’t they?”
Mo Li looked long and hard at Qiao Qing.?Such a cunning little girl. Here I thought you have turned over a new leaf but you’re just trying to make me confess to my crimes. The girl has such hideous intentions.
Mo Li turned and walked away. She got into Elder Mo’s car.
Qiao Qing was surprised. Based on her understanding of Mo Li, she would have been provoked and gone to find trouble with the IMO committee already!
Why is she so unfazed today? No, wait!?Qiao Qing suddenly broke out in cold sweat.?Mo Li has been more serene starting from a few months ago, it’s like she has changed into a different person!
However, Qiao Qing still didn’t give up. She said urgently, “Big sister, if you refuse to come clean and the evidence of your cheating is found, the reputation of the Mo Family will be over!”
Mo Li rolled down the car window and Qiao Qing sighed in relief, thinking Mo Li had finally come to her ‘senses’.
Mo Li uttered, “When did I gain a new kid sister?”
The smile on Qiao Qing’s face froze.
Mo Li ordered the driver to drive away, leaving Qiao Qing in the dust. Staring at the car, Qiao Qing gritted her teeth in hatred.
…
At the Mo Family Home, Mo Yi sat on the living room couch and his expression was dark. Mother Mo bustled about, sighing every once in a while.
“Mom, dad, don’t be angry… It’s not good for your health. I’m sure big sister didn’t mean to cheat on purpose. She was probably confused in that moment.”
Before Mother Mo could reply, Mo Yi claimed in a chilly voice, “What are you talking about? Mo Li didn’t cheat, on purpose or not!
“Qing Qing, how could you believe those outsiders and say these things about your own sister?! Such nonsense!”
Mother Mo quickly jumped in to mediate, “Mo Yi, please forgive her. She’s only a kid. She must have been swayed by those rumors.”
Qiao Qing’s chin trembled as she looked at Mo Yi in astonishment. Mo Yi had never raised his voice at her before, definitely not for the sake of Mo Li!
Mo Yun who was also in the room, took a puff of his e-cigarette before he turned to his parents. “Father, mother, don’t worry! Ol’ Two will handle the PR and I will personally look into this. I’m sure the truth will be out soon.”
