"Sigh... Let's just do it this way! Poor Xiaoqing, he's suffered so much. He was so happy yesterday, looking forward to his birthday party today..." Mo Yancheng sighed deeply, reaching out to touch his son's pale face, his heart aching.
"When Youyou was persuading Xiaoqing and Shuang'er to play with Xiaorui, Lin Qing and I shouldn't have stood by and watched. If we had just spoken up back then, this wouldn't have happened!" Hu Feiyue was filled with regret.
“Wife, it’s not your or your sister-in-law’s fault. Who would have thought that Xiao Rui… could do something like this?” Mo Yancheng said.
Even now, he still can't understand why, even adults without deep-seated hatred would go to such lengths, and what kind of mentality Liu Shengrui, who is only three years old, would do something so terrible and heinous.
This is a question that shouldn't be thought about too much; the more you think about it, the more chills you feel down your spine.
Mo Yancheng and Hu Feiyue's attitude clearly shows that they have not accepted Mo Youyou and Liu Dekai's apology.
As a result, they had no way to explain themselves to Mo Cheng.
“Yancheng and his wife are really angry this time. If one visit isn’t enough, then we’ll go a second time. We have to be sincere. We, the Mo family, must be of one mind. We can’t let this matter cause the relationship between our two families to become strained!” Mo Cheng said, slamming his fist on the table. He was very dissatisfied with Mo Youyou’s feedback.
"What can I do if they put on airs? I've already apologized, how much more sincere can they be?" Mo Youyou complained, feeling that she had already humbled herself enough.
Mo Jiaqing was seriously injured, but he didn't die. He can recover with some rest. Why do Mo Yancheng and Hu Feiyue have to keep putting on airs?
Thank goodness she didn't say that to Mo Cheng's face, otherwise, it would have made Mo Cheng furious!
Fortunately, Mo Yancheng and Hu Feiyue didn't hear it; otherwise, there would have been absolutely no chance for the two families to have any further contact.
"This is no small matter! Xiao Qing is so badly injured, what's wrong with apologizing a few more times?!" Mo Cheng felt a sense of disappointment and frustration. He even began to reflect on whether he had spoiled Mo Youyou too much, which was why she was still so immature.
Seeing Mo Cheng's expression, Mo Youyou also felt quite uncomfortable.
"I understand, I'll go again," she said sullenly, telling herself that she had to resolve this matter properly and obtain her brother and sister-in-law's forgiveness.
So, Mo Youyou and Liu Dekai visited Mo Jiaqing at the hospital several more times, but each time it was not much different from the first time. Mo Yancheng and Hu Feiyue clearly did not like them very much.
After doing this many times, Mo Youyou started to lose interest and didn't know what to do next.
Mo Jiaqing's injuries required rest and recovery, which would take more than a few days. After it was confirmed that he was alright, Mo Yancheng and Hu Feiyue took him home.
After learning about this, Mo Youyou decided to go and apologize to Liu Dekai. This time, she went alone and did not go with him.
"Bang—" She felt quite uneasy when she knocked on the door.
Who is it?
The person who opened the door was Hu Feiyue's mother. She didn't usually live with the young couple and their grandson. This time, she came specifically to take care of her injured grandson. She was also there on the day of the birthday banquet, so she naturally knew what the situation was. Now that she saw Mo Youyou, she definitely wouldn't have a good look on her face.
"Is there something you need?" Zhao Suyun's expression and tone were not good, and she showed no intention of inviting Mo Youyou into the house.
He just stared at her coldly; normally, Mo Youyou would have exploded.
But now, she can only endure it.
"Aunt Zhao, I've come to see Xiaoqing. Please let me in first." As she spoke, Mo Youyou showed the things she was carrying and took the initiative to walk into the house.
Zhao Suyun was unhappy, but she was a person of good manners and couldn't possibly kick her out again.
As soon as she entered the house, Mo Youyou saw Hu Feiyue sitting on the sofa.
She happened to be off work today and was at home, but Mo Yancheng wasn't home.
“Youyou,” Hu Feiyue saw what Mo Youyou was carrying and knew what she meant by coming, but she didn’t want to beat around the bush anymore. Some things had to be said sooner or later, so it would be easier to say them sooner. “You don’t need to bring anything to see Xiaoqing anymore. Some things, once they happen, they happen. Even if we’re family, we can’t pretend that nothing happened.”
Hu Feiyue's words were very harsh and resolute, but in the beginning, she did give Mo Youyou a chance.
However, whether it was going to the hospital before or visiting today, Mo Youyou either came alone or with Liu Dekai, but she never thought of bringing Liu Shengrui to give Mo Jiaqing a formal apology. At this point, Hu Feiyue finally understood.
Mo Youyou did these things not from the bottom of her heart; she just wanted to maintain this family relationship, not because she really thought Liu Shengrui had done something wrong.
In that case, Hu Feiyue doesn't need a fake apology.
"Sister-in-law, what happened that day was indeed my fault. I thought about it for a long time after I got home. I was inconsiderate and caused you and my brother a lot of trouble. I am now sincerely repenting. Please forgive me and don't hold it against me..." Mo Youyou's apologetic tone carried a hint of coquetry.
Listen to that! Hu Feiyue is absolutely furious!
Mo Youyou's words made no mention of Liu Shengrui, who had made a mistake, and completely ignored the injured Mo Jiaqing. Did she need this kind of apology?
“Youyou, whether or not I can forgive him is not up to me. The one who was hurt is Xiaoqing. He is still lying in bed recovering with a cast and brace. The one who caused him to become like this is Xiaorui. Do the math, how many days has it been since this happened? Has Xiaorui come to apologize to Xiaoqing yet?” Hu Feiyue’s tone was blatantly sarcastic.
"Exactly! Our Xiaoqing had a perfectly good birthday, and she got injured like this. She's lost so much weight in just a few days. I don't know who she offended..." Zhao Suyun said from the side, clearly not welcoming Mo Youyou and very dissatisfied with her.
"To be honest, I'm not willing to have anything to do with your family anymore, and I don't dare let your son get close to Xiaoqing. He's not made of iron and can't take this kind of abuse." Hu Feiyue didn't stop her mother's complaints, but continued to express her thoughts.
"Youyou, you really don't need to come anymore. I already know what's going on."
"Speaking of which, ever since you married Liu Dekai, you've become less and less like the person I first knew. I've been thinking about what went wrong, and after a long time, I still think that marrying Liu Dekai was a mistake," Hu Feiyue said.
Her tone was calm, and her expression was indifferent, but the words she spoke were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples and splashes that instantly threw Mo Youyou's mind into chaos.
