Chapter 207 Who Still Treats You as a Dish
When we got home, Lin Yuan was setting the table. There were already seven or eight dishes on the table, and Lin Fenfang was still stir-frying vegetables in the wok.
The last vegetable was served and everyone sat together to eat happily.
The old man and the old lady were so moved by the hot meal that they almost cried.
Lin Fenfang enthusiastically served them some food, "You two elders, please eat more. In a few days, you'll only be able to eat bread."
The old lady was eating with relish, but when she heard Lin Fenfang's words, she felt like she was having her last meal and choked.
Lin Xi was also convinced by her mother. She quickly brought a glass of water to the old lady and said with a smile, "It won't be that bad. It will only take a while."
"I have space for growing vegetables. I bought some seeds and will plant them in a few days."
"I'm planning to buy some piglets to raise tomorrow."
The old lady took a sip of water and thought to herself that it was a good thing that her grandson had good vision and found a capable granddaughter-in-law like Lin Xi. Otherwise, the two of them would definitely not be able to survive if they waited until that day.
After dinner, the old couple went home, Lin Yuan washed the dishes, and Lin Xi and Qi Mo went downstairs.
The two got in the car, Qi Mo started the car, and then said: "I want to see my mother."
He smiled bitterly, "I don't dare to see her. With you here, I might have the courage to face her."
Lin Xi smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll stay with you."
The car drove to Qi Mo's old house.
At this time, it was almost eight o'clock.
There were no lights in the entire building.
Qi Mo went in and turned on the light on the first floor, only to see Bai Lan sitting alone on the sofa.
When Bai Lan saw Qi Mo and Lin Xi coming in, there was suddenly light in his eyes.
She stood up suddenly, ran towards Qi Mo, hugged Qi Mo, and burst into tears, "I knew it, I knew you wouldn't leave me alone."
Qi Mo didn't push her away and let her cry.
After a long while, Bai Lan finally let go of Qi Mo, turned around and pointed at Lin Xi and said, "What is she doing here? Get her out of here!"
Lin Xi looked at her with a smile, but didn't say anything.
Qi Mo sighed.
"Mom, even today, don't you understand?"
"All the power, status, and wealth you are so proud of are now worthless."
"I said it the other day, Lin Xi is much better than me, and I'm not worthy of her because she's your son."
"I'm here to take you to my place. You should have heard the news. Blue Star is about to undergo drastic changes. After all, you are my mother. I can't abandon you."
"But if you're still like this, forget it."
"We will have to deal with many hardships in the future. I don't want to face a mother who is always causing trouble for me and intends to use me as a puppet at this time!"
Bai Lan moved her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but then she bit her lip.
Qi Mo looked at her and said, "From now on, no matter what I do, please don't interfere."
"If you can do that, go up and pack your clothes and luggage."
"If not, then—you'll have to take care of yourself."
Bai Lan suddenly looked up at Qi Mo.
Qi Mo looked back at her calmly.
Bai Lan has not awakened her special powers. Her eldest brother only picked her up from the sanatorium yesterday.
Everyone in the nursing home had left long ago, and Bai Lan wanted to go home, but she was used to a life of luxury, and without a car to pick her up, she couldn't go back at all.
She called home but no one answered, so she finally called her eldest brother.
On the way back, her brother told her in detail about the situation Lan Xing would face, and told her to follow their family and go into the shelter together, and they would be able to survive.
She refused to go.
Even if he was her own brother, she didn't want to live under someone else's roof.
She chose to go home.
But there is no servant in the house.
I went upstairs to the bedroom, which was in a mess, with clothes and shoes scattered all over the floor. Housekeeper Sun was opening the safe in her bedroom.
She was cursing and saying she would call the police.
Who knew that Butler Sun sneered, "Mrs. Qi, don't you know that the world has changed? Where are the police now?"
"Besides, do you think anyone will listen to you now? Will they treat you like a dish?"
"If I hadn't been hoping to get some jewelry and gold bars in exchange for food, I wouldn't have bothered to come here."
"I'm tired of serving you, a psychopathic woman, and I'm tired of being angry with you."
"Even if I take some things, it's only right. It's your compensation for my mental damages."
"I've never seen a psychopath like you in my life. You had a good hand, but you played it so badly. You acted like a spoiled child all day long. You drove away your husband, parents-in-law, and even your own son. You've pushed him further and further away."
"I don't know where this sense of superiority comes from, I always think I'm superior to others!"
"Bah!"
Butler Sun emptied her safe right in front of her, and sneered as he left, "A woman like you, haha, doesn't even have the ability to survive. I'm too lazy to do anything to you. Your husband and son don't want you anymore. You're a psychopath. I wonder how you can survive."
After Butler Sun finished speaking, he pushed her away from the door and left.
Bai Lan screamed like crazy.
Her desperate screams echoed in the empty house.
But she screamed until her throat was hoarse, and no one paid any attention to her.
She was tired, so she curled up in her bed and slept for the night.
When I woke up in the morning, I still felt like I was dreaming.
After she walked around every corner of the house, she finally realized that this was not a dream, but reality.
The things she once took pride in became worthless overnight.
She knew she couldn't survive. She had never touched water since she was a child. Although there was still some rice in the kitchen, she didn't know how to cook it.
She drank only water and milk all day and then sat on the sofa, waiting to die.
Qi Mo's arrival brought her hope of life.
People always have a desire to survive.
However, although she understood a lot of things, it was really difficult for her to change her attitude towards Qi Mo and Lin Xi immediately.
Once a person is on a high pedestal, it is not easy to come down.
She turned and walked upstairs. She needed to think about it carefully.
Qi Mo said behind her, "I'll wait for you for half an hour. If you don't come downstairs after half an hour, Mom, I'll be sorry."
Bai Lan's body stiffened, and then he slowly walked upstairs.
Lin Xi checked the time on her phone. It was exactly eight o'clock.
At the same time, she saw Qi Mo also looking at his mobile phone.
She walked around the house and found it was really big.
There are several acres of lawn in front and an artificial lake in the back.
The house is beautiful and beautifully decorated, but unfortunately, I don’t know if it will still exist in the next few days.
After walking around for a few times, Lin Xi suddenly remembered Professor Zhao and called him.
