Chapter 16



Mu Tianheng felt something was wrong and knocked on the door a few more times. Seeing still no response from inside the house, he took out his cell phone and called Mo Di.

Mo Di slept for two hours in KFC. He was still a little groggy when he was woken up by the ringing sound. When he saw that the call was from Mu Tianheng, he was a little slow to react for a moment.

But he subconsciously knew that the person on the other end was not dangerous, so he opened the phone with a flick of his finger, "Hello?"

"Little guy, are you still not awake?" Mu Tianheng heard Mo Di's dazed voice.

"No, brother, I'm awake."

Mo Di woke up completely after he said the word "hello". He was now sitting up straight, wondering why Mu Tianheng called him so early.

"Brother, why are you here so early today? Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

Mu Tianheng glanced at the steamed buns and soy milk in his hands and said softly, "I'm at your door now. I knocked but no one answered. Have you gone to school yet?"

"Ah?" Mo Di was slightly startled. He was a little surprised that Mu Tianheng came to see him so early. He immediately sorted out all his thoughts and plans in his mind and said in the most normal tone: "I'm sorry, brother, I'm not at home now. Do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Not at home?"

Mu Tianheng keenly realized that when little Mo Di said he was not at home, he might not mean he was at school, so he asked, "What's the matter? You are not at home, and you didn't go to school?"

"I..." The voice coming from the phone sounded a little scared, but also forced to be calm: "Brother, my place was discovered, I was scared, so... I ran out in the middle of the night."

Discovered? !

Mu Tianheng's first reaction was that Mo Di's address was known by the Mo family. No wonder he was so scared that he ran out at night. He didn't ask any more questions and just asked, "Where are you now?"

"I'm now... in the KFC next to the Dahuai Road subway station."

"Wait there, I'll find you."

Mu Tianheng hung up the phone and immediately turned around to go downstairs. When he was leaving the building, he almost bumped into a boy who was about to enter the building. He turned his body aside, turned around and walked away without paying any attention.

After Mo Di hung up the phone, he sat quietly for a while, then got up and ordered two cups of soy milk, two cheeseburgers, and two servings of fried dough sticks.

Mu Tianheng obviously came to see him on purpose. He had just plotted against Mu Tianheng, so he couldn't just not treat him to breakfast.

Unexpectedly, when Mu Tianheng arrived, he also had two cups of soy milk and two baskets of hot steamed dumplings in his hands.

Modi looked at him, stunned.

Mu Tianheng also saw the double breakfast on the tray in front of Mo Di. He paused for a moment, then his eyes bent slightly and he sat down opposite Mo Di.

"Would you like to try the dumplings my brother bought?"

Mu Tianheng put the takeaway box of dumplings on the table and opened it. "It's still hot. There are pork and celery and crab roe. I wonder if you like them."

"I like it." Modi looked at the steamed bun with a little bit of oil showing in the middle of the folds, lowered his eyes slightly, and a barely perceptible warmth rose in the corners of his eyes.

This was the first time...someone cared whether he had breakfast or not.

"Eat more if you like." Mu Tianheng was wearing an elegant high-end shirt, but his movements were not restrained at all. He reached out and picked up a cheeseburger, and said to Mo Di in a gentle voice: "Do you mind if I eat one?"

"Of course not." Modi shook his head, "I bought this for my brother."

"It seems that we are in sync, and we both want to buy breakfast for each other." Mu Tianheng smiled, peeled off the wrapping paper of the burger, and took a bite, "It tastes good."

Mo Di bit into the juicy and meaty steamed bun and thought, it tastes really good.

Mu Tianheng ate a hamburger and then picked up some steamed dumplings. During the time, he had been chatting with Mo Di about some light topics. When they were both almost done eating, he gently asked Mo Di what happened last night.

Mo Di paused and did not tell the whole truth. He blurred Qin Yisheng's information and identity, concealed some suspicious points, and only focused on the results of what he discovered.

Then he confessed his plan to move somewhere else.

Mu Tianheng could tell that Mo Di was hiding something, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "Since this person was able to find your rental address so quickly, he can find it a second time very quickly. Even if you move, you're not safe."

"Then I have no other choice." Modi licked the grease off his lips and lowered his head.

"Actually, you have another way." Mu Tianheng looked at Mo Di's soft and shiny black hair and said in a gentle voice.

"What?" Mo Di raised his head and looked at Mu Tianheng cautiously and anxiously: "Brother, is there any other way?"

Mu Tianheng was pleased by the little animal's tentative expression. His heart seemed to be gently ironed. He smiled and said, "Have you ever thought of asking me for help? Have you forgotten the reward I promised you before?"

"Reward?" Modi paused and said, "Brother, do you want me to use the previous reward to ask you for help?"

After that, without waiting for Mu Tianheng to speak, Mo Di whispered again: "Brother, are you going to use your name to help me rent a house?"

"Are you stupid?" Mu Tianheng was helpless. He finally stretched out his hand and touched the hair that he had been coveting for many days. It looked so good to touch. He rubbed it hard, and rubbed it again and again.

"Of course not. Your brother and the others all know that I took you away. They will probably find you if they follow me, so it won't work even if they rent a house in my name."

Mo Di did not respond, but just looked at Mu Tianheng in shock and confusion, as if he was completely unable to react. Mu Tianheng would actually... reach out and rub his hair, and rub it twice? !

"cough."

Mu Tianheng, however, had a calm look on his face. Not only did he take in the shocked and stunned yet inexplicably beautiful expression of the child in front of him, he also cleared his throat and withdrew his hand seriously, then picked up the bag that Mo Di had placed on the seat in a very elder-like manner.

"Since renting a house is not an option, why don't you just come live with me, little guy? Actually, what Ryder said before makes sense. We have a lot of rooms in our villa, so it's no problem for you to live here."

And when he and Reids leave China, this house will be given directly to the little guy, as a way of repaying the life-saving grace he still owes him, so that he won't leave with a sense of uneasiness.

"I'm going to live with you guys?!" Mo Di seemed to have not followed Mu Tianheng's thoughts, and the expression on his face was still dazed.

"Yes, are you finished?"

“I’m done, but…”

"Come with me after you finish eating. It's getting late." Mu Tianheng stood up and ruffled Mo Di's hair again. Then he picked up Mo Di's huge luggage bag with one hand and said in a gentle but unyielding voice, "I'll take you back first and you can choose a room."

Mo Di looked at Mu Tianheng, who walked three or four meters away with his backpack in the blink of an eye. His eyelashes drooped, he lowered his head slightly, and grabbed the strap of his backpack.

And when he raised his head again three seconds later, there was only the expression on his face that Mu Tianheng was familiar with, the expression that he would have and "should" have as a well-behaved and poor little boy.

Mo Di followed Mu Tianheng, obediently carrying his huge schoolbag, and got on the bus.

Things went so smoothly that it was somewhat beyond Mo Di's expectations. Although the sense of crisis that exploded in his heart when he found out that Qin Yisheng had fallen in love with Mo Liugui at first sight immediately made him think that he must make good use of Mu Tianheng, but at that time he only wanted to use Mu Tianheng's connections and influence to help him avoid the crisis, and did not directly think about moving in with him.

However, it must be said that he was no longer opposed to living with Mu Tianheng. He even felt that this was a very good way to get close to Mu Tianheng and improve his favorability.

"Brother, are you and Brother Rydes the only ones living in the villa?" Modi said in a low voice.

"That's right, but there will be a nanny to cook every morning. After cooking, she will clean up the kitchen and leave." Mu Tianheng stepped on the accelerator. "You can review in the bedroom or in the study on the first floor. Don't worry, no one will disturb you."

"I'm not worried about that, I'm..." Mo Di paused and said, "Brother, I don't want to go back to school to review before the college entrance examination. I want to review by myself. Is that okay?"

"sure."

Mu Tianheng suddenly realized that Mo Di was worried that they would mind him staying at home alone for a day. He felt a little distressed for Mo Di's cautious and timid look, and said, "Just study hard at home, don't worry about anything."

Mo Di really didn't expect Mu Tianheng to treat him like this, and he suddenly felt a little guilty, but when he thought of the goals and principles he had set for himself since his rebirth, he put away the guilt and said obediently: "Yeah."

"Also, on weekdays, Ryders and I will definitely leave before eight in the morning, and we usually won't be back until after ten at night. I will ask the nanny to come over at noon and before dinner to cook for you. If you want to eat anything, you can tell her directly."

"No need, brother." Modi said quickly after hearing this: "Don't ask the nanny to cook two more meals. I can cook. I can do it myself."

"It's okay, you don't have to mind it, it's just a matter of convenience, that nanny..."

"Brother, there's really no need!" Mo Di interrupted Mu Tianheng and insisted, "I really can cook, and my food is delicious, really!"

Seeing that Mo Diyi insisted on cooking for himself or he would be embarrassed to stay here, Mu Tianheng sighed, "Okay, you cook it yourself, but I will ask the nanny to buy vegetables and meat and put them in the refrigerator, you can cook it yourself."

Modi quickly responded, "Thank you, brother!"

"What are you thanking me for? Didn't you help me a lot at the construction site before?" Mu Tianheng turned the steering wheel and drove through a traffic light.

He believed that Mu Tianheng's life was still very valuable.

When Mu Tianheng brought Mo Di to the villa, they happened to meet Reids going out. Seeing that his brother drove around and actually brought the beautiful boy home, Reids stared in shock and didn't know what to say for a moment.

“You, what are you doing…!”

"Sorry to bother you." Modi stood at the door, like a tall and elegant young poplar.

"You, you, you, what are you doing..."

"His address has been discovered, so I brought him here to live." Mu Tianheng looked calm, as if he was not the one who resolutely rejected Reid's proposal.

Reids didn't want to say anything, he just wanted to ask Mu Tianheng if his face hurt. !

However, he was still very happy about the fact that the beautiful boy was going to live with them!

"Come here, little brother. I welcome you to live with us. Come, come, I'll show you around our villa. This side..."

"Okay, if you keep dawdling, you'll be late for your appointment with Director Hai." Mu Tianheng grabbed the back of Rydes's collar and said to Mo Di, "Little guy, you can pick any room on the first floor except the one in the southeast corner which belongs to Rydes. We have to go out and be busy now, so you can study at home by yourself."

Reids' plan to take advantage of the opportunity to arrange the beautiful boy to live next to his bedroom - failed!

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, brother." Modi smiled a little stiffly.

Rydes wanted to say something but was dragged away by Mu Tianheng and the door slammed shut.

After sitting in the car, Ryders looked at Mu Tianheng with suspicion: "Why didn't you tell the little guy that he couldn't go to the second and third floors? You usually don't let me go!"

“No need.” Mu Tianheng casually opened the folder and started flipping through it.

"You are so cunning!" Ryders suddenly understood, "You are really insincere. On the surface, you are helping others and repaying their kindness, but in fact, you are still testing the children, right?!"

"If he went to the second or third floor without your permission, or even looked through things he shouldn't have, wouldn't you just kick him out?"

"You're overthinking it. The favor should still be repaid, but the way of repaying it is different. The fact that I didn't remind him actually means that I have more trust in his character."

“Bullshit!”

......

On the other side, Modi didn't even walk around the first floor and directly chose the second bedroom on the right-hand corridor as his room.

Then he took out the contents of the two large bags and packed them up simply.

After he tidied up his room and took out his mobile phone to ask for leave from his class teacher, he suddenly found that he had received a group email containing the results and rankings of the last mock exam.

Modi opened it casually and his eyes paused slightly.

At the top of the list was Modi's name.

Chinese 132, Mathematics 150, English 148, Comprehensive Science 278, total score 708, first in the class, second in the grade.

Scanning again, the next name is Mo Liugui, with a total score of 689, third in the class and seventh in the grade.
