Mo Jin recalled that a year ago, the two of them had never even met each other. Then again, however, her son had become a little strange since the beginning of the previous year.

She could not tell if this little girl was related to them either.

“Do you have any pictures? I’d like to see who’s better-looking between her and Little Apple,” Mo Jin remarked.

“What’s there to compare? Though, I have to say that Yan Yan is very pretty indeed!’ Luosang pulled out her cell phone. She had taken numerous photos of the three children over the past few days. Because Yan Su was a public figure, she did not dare to post the photos on her social media account. “I was just saying that since Little Apple likes her so much, perhaps we can arrange a marriage for them.”

“That’s a good idea,” Xu Zhengxuan concurred as he leaned over to take a look. “Wow. One look and I can tell that she’ll grow up to be a great beauty.”

“Right?” The father and daughter were so busy interacting with each other that they did not notice that beside them, Mo Jin’s eyes were almost bulging out of their sockets.

The father and daughter were unaware of it, but she had brought Mo Liuxi up personally. This child was a spitting image of him when he had been young, except that it was a girl.

That rascal had had a daughter behind everyone’s backs, and till now, had yet to introduce her to the family.

Mo Jin was excited and furious at the same time.

If Mo Liuxi had been in front of her right there and then, she would have strangled him!

“Mom, what’s wrong?” After chatting with her father for a while, Luosang asked in bewilderment, finally realizing that her mother was lost in her thoughts.

“Sangsang, I suddenly recalled that there’s something very important that I haven’t done. I’ll have to leave first. I’ll come back to visit you tomorrow.” With that, Mo Jin turned around and left out the door.

“Hey, where are you off to? I’ll give you a lift!” Xu Zhengxuan hobbled after her.

“That’s not necessary. Keep our daughter company!” Mo Jin ran off even faster than a rabbit could.

Perturbed, Xu Zhengxuan turned around to complain to his daughter, “You should say something to your mother. How can she go out this late without her husband?”

“It looked like something urgent, Dad. Don’t hold it against her.” After replying to her father, Luosang muttered to herself, “But I’ve rarely seen Mom this flustered. I wonder what’s so important.”

Standing at the side, Nian Junting pursed his lips in exasperation. It was because her mother had suddenly realized that she had another granddaughter, and she was in a hurry to ascertain the fact!

Only this father and daughter were left in the dark about the situation. Everyone else knew about it and had tacitly kept it from them, perhaps out of exasperation that they had not managed to figure it out for themselves yet.

…

While driving, Mo Jin gave Mo Liuxi a call. “Where are you now? I’m on my way to your apartment.”

“I… just had dinner with my schoolmates. I’m on my way back.” Mo Liuxi paused for a moment. He was not intending to return to his apartment. “Is there a problem? Can you tell me over the phone? I’m not home.”

“If you’re going home, where are you going? To Yan Su’s place?” Mo Jin was at the height of her fury and was very agitated. “Did you think your mother wouldn’t find out about your illicit secret?”

Mo Liuxi was silent for a while, before replying, “Please don’t make it sound so ugly. Our relationship was pretty complicated…”

“What was so complicated about it? Wasn’t it just a case of young people falling in love, and one thinking that the other loved someone else but realizing at the end that they had both been in love with each other all along?” Mo Jin scoffed.

Mo Liuxi could not answer.

Now that she phrased it in such a way, that did seem to be the case. He was beginning to suspect that Mo Jin had installed a surveillance camera beside him.

“I’ve been there and done that,” Mo Jin said. “That’s probably the case for every young lover out there too. I saw you in pain; I just couldn’t be bothered to say anything about it. Some things have to be experienced personally. After all, when it comes to love, you’re still a novice.”
