Mo Beihan remained in the room for a long time. It was evening by the time he woke up.
Mo Beihan glanced at the time and sighed.
He had been working very hard. He had worked overtime so that he could e back earlier to see his wife. He was exhausted by his flight and the recent frenzied activity.
A deep sleep had refreshed him!
He glanced at the girl sleeping in the crook of his arm. He had bullied her badly just now, and she was sound asleep. She showed no signs of waking up.
Mo Beihan’s lips arched in a smile. He kissed her forehead and gently withdrew his arm. Then he got up and dressed.
By the time he got to the living room, the large room was pletely silent. Mo Beihan asked Butler Zhong, “Where’s everyone?”
Butler Zhong replied, “The young masters went out and haven’t returned. Old Master and Old Madam are upstairs! As for Great-aunt and her family, they cried and fussed for a while, but Old Madam scolded them. They’re in the guest rooms now!”
Sun Huihui had been so frightened. Of course Great-aunt Mo and Zhou Furong would not let it go. They insisted on plaining to Grandma Mo. But Grandma Mo was no fool; her own grandson and granddaughter-in-law were newly-weds. Her oldest grandson had been away for so long, of course she knew what they would do upon his return.
She had been young once!
Sun Huihui must be crazy to knock on their door at this time.
Grandma Mo reprimanded them, but Old Master Mo did not appear. Great-aunt Mo fussed for a while, but everyone ignored her and she did not know what else to do.
Old Master Mo might care about Fang Zhenguo, but his oldest grandson, Mo Beihan, was even more important! They had offended his oldest grandson. Of course he would not appear.
Mo Beihan nodded. He sat on the living room sofa and took up the day’s newspapers to read.
It was almost dinnertime by the time Great-aunt Mo, Grandma Mo and Old Master Mo arrived.
Grandma Mo was delighted to see Mo Beihan. “Beihan, you’re awake? Where’s Yao Yao?”
It was already dinnertime, and everyone was present in the living room except for Gu Qingyao.
Mo Beihan turned and smiled at Grandma Mo. “Grandfather, Grandma, I’m fine. I was just tired. I’m fine after a rest.
“Yao Yao is not free at the moment. I asked her to stay in the room and sort out my luggage!”
Grandma Mo immediately stopped asking. Her oldest grandson was clearly looking smug and satisfied. She could tell.
“Uhm! Then let’s eat! You’ve been away for so long. Now that you’re back, you should eat more!”
“Okay!”
Great-aunt Mo was livid when she saw that Grandma Mo and Old Master Mo had no intention of mentioning the fact that he had thrown Sun Huihui out.
If they think they could resolve the matter by ignoring it?
Great-aunt Mo looked sternly at Mo Beihan. “Huihui went to look for you just now. What did you do to her? Why did you frighten her so badly?”
Mo Beihan raised his head and smiled. “I don’t know any Huihui.”
“You…” Great-aunt Mo raged. “Huihui is your younger cousin!”
Mo Beihan glanced at Sun Huihui. “Then I hope this young girl remembers not to run into my bedroom for no reason in the future. She’s old enough to know some manners!”
Sun Huihui was pletely humiliated.
Great-aunt Mo and Zhou Furong were shocked. They had not expected Mo Beihan to show them such disrespect.
Mo Beihan smiled coldly at them.
“Oh, Grandma told me that Uncle Fang was my grandfather’s right-hand man. The members of that generation were very close when they were young. Great-aunt, when did Uncle Fang pass away?”
