As night fell, the Mo family home was brightly lit. The family of Mo Yu’s second uncle sat on the living room sofa. Mo Yu’s second uncle, Mo Tao, was Grandfather Mo’s illegitimate son.
Mo Tao had a son, and his name was Mo Wei. Although Mo Wei and Mo Yu were both grandchildren of the Mo family, their statuses were worlds apart.
Mo Wei was already in his thirties, but he was only the deputy manager of one of the Mo family’s businesses. Because Mo Wei had not made any recent improvements in his current position, he couldn’t get promoted to head office.
Mo Tao’s wife, Li Li, rolled her eyes. Her tone was extremely disgusted as she said, “Do you think the heavens are in our favor this time? Mo Yu actually married a mentally ret*rded pregnant woman. Oh my goodness, what an embarrassment to the Mo family. I wouldn’t dare to go out in public for the next few days out of fear of being laughed at by others.”
Mo Tao nodded in agreement. “I am in no rush to return home. We must make sure to give Mo Yu and his ret*rded wife a good earful. Such nonsense! Does Mo Yu really thinks that any Tom, Dick, and Harry would be welcomed into our family?”
Mo Tao behaved as though he was the elder. He had forgotten that he was initially just an illegitimate child of the Mo family.
“Yes, Mo Yu is so insensible. I think it’s about time the family handed over some of its business assets to Mo Wei. Don’t forget to bring this up later. Our son has been the deputy manager of that lousy company for three years. Mo Yu and Mo Wei are both grandchildren of the Mo family. Why should our son suffer such injustice?” Li Li said through her gritted teeth.
Mo Wei clenched his fists in anger, and his eyes revealed a hint of hatred as he angrily said, “If it weren’t for Mo Yu’s deliberate meddling, I would have been promoted to the head of the office. Grandfather Mo is an old fart, and his thoughts have become muddled.
“I am not inferior to Mo Yu. Grandfather Mo should have promoted me to the head of the office long ago. Now that Grandfather Mo has been paralyzed due to his car accident, and Mo Yu is in control, I’m afraid I won’t be able to stand out anymore.”
“Ahem!”
Mo Tao and his family jolted up. They saw one of the Mo family’s maids pushing a wheelchair as they looked up. On it sat the paralyzed Grandfather Mo. On the left side of the wheelchair was the tall and handsome Mo Yu. Another person was standing behind Mo Yu, and he was blocking the person. The person’s face could not be seen. It was Fang Liu, the woman who was four months pregnant.
Mo Wei felt guilty as he had just mentioned that Grandfather Mo was an old fart and that his thoughts had become muddled. Mo Wei wasn’t sure if Grandfather Mo had heard him.
When Li Li saw the three of them arrive, she put on a sweet smile. Then, she proceeded to walk forward, pushing the maid away. Rushing to usher Grandfather Mo to the dining table, she said with a warm tone, “Father, Mo Tao, and I were really worried when we heard about your accident.
“Mo Tao had even gone to the temple to pray to the Gods to bless you with a speedy recovery. Mo Wei had also been looking around for a cure. As you can see, Mo Yu is busy with work, so he probably doesn’t have the time to take care of you. Do you want to stay with us for a few months so that we can take care of you?”
Li Li was passive-aggressively slandering Mo Yu, accusing him of not being capable of taking good care of Grandfather Mo, at the same time expressing her family’s devotion toward Grandfather Mo.
“That’s right, Father. Wouldn’t you agree that Mo Yu is being nonsensical? Mo Yu didn’t treat you well, yet he insisted on marrying a pregnant woman. Listen to what the public is saying about the Mo family. They say that we are martyrs for raising another man’s child and that the Mo family doesn’t have moral values.
“So tell me, Mo Yu, do you realize your mistake?” After Mo Tao said this, he turned his head and glared fiercely at Mo Yu, as though Mo Yu was an undutiful descendant of the Mo family.
Fang Liu, who was standing behind Mo Yu, was shocked. ‘What sort of weird relatives did Mo Yu have? How could they be so hypocritical and shameless?’ Fang Liu clenched her fists as she heard what Mo Tao had said.
However, Mo Yu glanced at Mo Tao indifferently. With a faint smile on his face, Mo Yu retorted, “A mistake? I legally married Fang Liu. I see nothing wrong with that. I heard that Mo Wei had impregnated two university students and forced them to get an abortion. Where’s the glory in that?”
