Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Grandma...” Xu Youyou’s face flushed red after she was exposed by her grandmother.
Cheng Ying quickly covered for her daughter. “Mom, it’s rare that Youyou has time off to spend with Shenbai. Don’t be jealous.”
Old Madam Xu said pridefully, “I’m not jealous. Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Alright, alright, you’re not jealous,” Cheng Ying said placatingly as she poured a glass of water and handed it to Old Madam Xu. Then, she looked at her daughter and asked, “How have you been recently?”
“Pretty good,” Xu Youyou replied. Her complexion was ruddy, and she was clearly in high spirits. It was obvious that she was very happy.
“That’s good,” Cheng Ying said. Then, she picked up the fruit basket Xu Youyou brought over before she said, “I’m going to wash and cut the fruits.”
Xu Youyou offered to do it, but Cheng Ying refused, telling Xu Youyou to accompany Old Madam Xu.
When only Old Madam and Xu Youyou were left in the room, Old Madam Xu stared at Xu Youyou and asked, “Tell Grandma honestly, is Little Mo treating you well?”
“He treats me very well,” Xu Youyou replied. She did not understand why her grandmother asked such a question so she added, “What’s wrong, Grandma?”
Old Madam Xu’s smile vanished from her face, and her expression was solemn as she asked, “Then, what’s going on with that woman and that child?”
“Grandma, how did you find out?” Xu Youyou knew that her brother would not say anything to their grandmother.
“Don’t worry about that. Tell me the truth. Don’t lie to me.”
“How would I dare to lie to you?” Xu Youyou said with a helpless smile on her face, “That woman is Miss Yun. She’s the girlfriend of Mo Shenbai’s good friend. Since the mother and son are pitiful, it’s normal for him to look after them, right?”
“Little Mo has a cold countenance but a kind heart. It’s a pity that the burden on his shoulders is heavy,” Old Madam Xu said with a sigh.
“Grandma, I trust him,” Xu Youyou said. Although her voice was soft, it was firm.
“You…” Old Madam Xu poked Xu Youyou’s forehead again and said, “Even if you trust Little Mo, you can’t let your guard down. That person is very good at hiding her thoughts. A relationship between two people not only requires mutual trust, but also careful management. Don’t give the villains a chance to take advantage of the situation.”
“I understand,” Xu Youyou said cutely as she hugged her grandmother’s arm, “Don’t worry about me. Rest well and recuperate. With Brother around, no one can bully me.”
Old Madam Xu’s eyes were filled with love as she said, “You, you only know how to rely on Jialu to pamper and spoil you…”
Xu Youyou giggled and said, “Who made us siblings? If he doesn’t spoil me, who will?”
“Be careful that he no longer dotes on you when he marries a wife in the future.”
“Impossible. Even if I have a sister-in-law in the future, Brother will love me the most,” Xu Youyou said confidently as she raised her chin.
“Shameless…” Old Madam Xu laughed.
At this moment, Cheng Ying stood at the entrance and watched the warm scene between the grandmother and the granddaughter. A gratified smile could be seen on her face.
…
After leaving the hospital and getting into the car, she did not tell Cang Ming where she was going next. Instead, she brought her phone out and sent a message to Yao Yao.
Youyou: Are you busy? If you’re not, I want to ask you something.
Since it was working hours, Xu Youyou did not expect Yao Yao’s reply that came in seconds.
Yao Yao: I’m not busy. Chairman Mo is in a meeting now so I can slack off.
Yao Yao did not think Xu Youyou would tattle on her so she was very honest.
Youyou: Is there any news about Mr. Bai in the company recently?
Yao Yao: !!!
Youyou: Don’t hide it from me. Otherwise, I’ll report to Pei Chuan that you’re slacking off at work.
Yao Yao: Well, there are some rumors about…
Youyou: What rumors?
Yao Yao: It’s about Miss Yun who came to look for Chairman Mo previously. I don’t know who spread the news that she’s Chairman Mo’s first love and that the little boy by her side is Chairman Mo’s illegitimate son. Moreover…
Yao Yao: The rumors aren’t just in the company. They’ve spread as well. They’re saying that now that Chairman Mo’s first love is back, you’ll have to give up your position.
‘First love?’
Xu Youyou pouted. ‘His first love and first kiss are all me. What first love?’
Yao Yao: Naturally, I don’t believe the rumors! Chairman Mo is completely devoted to you. His love for you is as deep as the sea. Even the Great Wall crumbles, the Yellow River flows backward, and the world ends, Chairman Mo’s love for you will never change!
Youyou: Alright, alright, I understand. I won’t disturb you anymore.
After Xu Youyou put her phone away, Cang Ming asked, “Madam, are you going home?”
Xu Youyou was silent for a long time as though she was thinking about something before she asked, “Do you know where those rich second generation in Mo City likes to hang out?”
Cang Ming frowned, not quite understanding Xu Youyou’s intention. He replied, “It used to be one of the bars, but now, they like to hang out at Young Master Bo’s bar.”
Apart from supporting Bo Qi, those people also wanted to suck up to Bo Qi.
“Then, let’s go to Blue Temptation,” Xu Youyou said before bringing her phone out again to send a message to Su Lanxu and Mo Zhiyun.
After their exams, they had yet to celebrate.
…
Blue Temptation was not open yet, but when the security guard saw Xu Youyou, he politely invited her in and informed the manager.
When the manager received the notice, he quickly informed his boss before going downstairs to welcome Xu Youyou. “Mrs. Mo, why are you here today?”
“I want to relax after my exams. Is it inconvenient for you that I came early?” Xu Youyou asked considerately.
“No, of course not,” the manager replied politely before asking the bartender to prepare a glass of juice.
After Xu Youyou found a seat and sat down, she played a game on her phone.
Su Lanxu was the first to arrive. As soon as she walked in, she said teasingly, “Ah, how surprising! You finally remember that you have a best friend!”
Xu Youyou pushed a glass of juice over and said, “No one would dare to forget you.”
Su Lanxu took a sip of the cold fruit juice before she asked curiously, “Why did you decide to come to Blue Temptation today?”
“No reason. I feel like coming, so I came,” Xu Youyou said. She did not explain anything. She glanced at her phone before she said with a pout, “This Zhiyun really prioritizes a man over her friends.”
Su Lanxu leaned back against the chair and chuckled before she said, “Everyone in the university knows that she’s chasing after the campus’ most handsome student. How can she have time for her sister-in-law?”
Xu Youyou glared at her and said, “Don’t tease me.”
Su Lanxu nodded. “Alright, alright, I won’t tease you. Let’s talk about what’s going on then.”
“Huh?”
“Don’t pretend. The news had spread to the circle. Apparently, Mo Shenbai’s first love is back, and you’re about to be replaced.”
Although Su Lanxu did not believe the rumor about Mo Shenbai’s first love, she still could not help but ask about what was going on when she met Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou pursed her lips before she said in a rare willful tone, “I don’t care if she’s his first love or not. In any case, I’m not Mr. Bai’s girlfriend and wife.”
Su Lanxu chuckled. “I got it. You don’t have to show off your love.”
Xu Youyou stuck her tongue at Su Lanxu and rolled her eyes. Then, after a moment, she asked, “Lanlan, can you help me with something?”
“If you have something to say, just say it. Do you need to be so polite with me?” Su Lanxu said magnanimously.
Xu Youyou beckoned to Su Lanxu to come closer.
Su Lanxu was puzzled and curious as she leaned over.
Xu Youyou said a few words in a hushed voice.
After listening to Xu Youyou, a smile appeared on Su Lanxu’s face as she said, “I didn’t expect that Little Youyou would also turn bad…”
