Mo Xiaotuo knew that if she didn't tell him what was going on, her younger brother would definitely not agree to transfer schools.
"Sister...cough cough..." Mo Zhiyan started coughing as she became anxious.
Mo Xiaotuo frowned and said, "My mother's will stipulates that this living allowance can only be received after I get married."
"Sister, you got married? Did they put this person in your shoes? Sister, how could you do this? I'm going to see Grandpa. Even if that cheapskate father doesn't care about me, Grandpa won't abandon me." Mo Zhiyan became agitated when he heard that his sister had actually sold him out in order to get their mother's inheritance as soon as possible.
Cough cough cough...
He coughed even harder, feeling like he would faint if he couldn't catch his breath.
Mo Xiaotuo quickly put the respirator on her younger brother and then said anxiously, "Don't worry, I didn't take the one they found for me. I found you a brother-in-law myself. Yesterday, your brother-in-law even helped me shut up with those people. He went on a business trip. When he comes back, I'll bring him to see you, okay? Don't rush, you mustn't rush, or your body won't be able to handle it."
She was heartbroken, and her nose stung with tears.
"I don't believe it, sister, you're lying to me, right? That day, Sister Lisa came to see me and said that your boyfriend was snatched away by your best friend. Where are you going to find me a brother-in-law? Did you marry an old man? Sister, please don't lie to me anymore, sob sob..." Mo Zhiyan felt a pain in her heart for several days when she thought of what Sister Lisa said that day. Now, hearing that her sister was getting married because of her will, she couldn't help but cry.
Mo Xiaotuo never expected that Morissa would be so despicable, deliberately telling her brother such a thing. Wasn't she trying to kill her brother?
"I'll call your brother-in-law and ask him to come over." She knew that if Luo Chen didn't come, her brother wouldn't be able to get over this hurdle.
Mo Zhiyan looked at her sister with a mixture of disbelief and doubt, tears streaming down her face.
Mo Xiaotuo was heartbroken. She instructed the guard at the door to watch over her younger brother while she took her phone and went outside to call Luo Chen.
Meanwhile, Luo Chen, suffering from a severe headache due to excessive drinking, was currently receiving an IV drip at Nangong Jiu's place. Upon seeing that it was that woman calling, he immediately hung up.
He hung up, and the phone rang again shortly after. He hung up again, and after this happened more than ten times, he decided to blacklist the number.
Fortunately, Nangong Jiu was watching from the side, gossiping. He could tell that Brother Chen was angry, and he guessed it was probably his sister-in-law. He was going all out for the medical resources that Grandma Luo had given him.
"Brother Chen, maybe your wife has something important to say, otherwise she wouldn't keep calling. If she can't find you later, it would be troublesome if she called Grandma." He cautiously advised.
Only after mentioning his grandmother did Luo Chen give up blocking the number, and he answered the phone when it called again.
"You...?" Mo Xiaotuo had just uttered one word when she noticed her younger brother was already standing beside her. She had originally wanted to ask him if he had time to come over, but she changed her mind and said, "Come here for a moment, my brother wants to see you, now, right away."
The tone was commanding!
Is this woman carrying bear bile?
They wouldn't let him into the house last night, and today they ordered him to come over.
Luo Chen's anger flared up, but he suppressed it when he met Nangong Jiu's reminding gaze.
"Where are you going!" He only said two words, but it made the other person feel the temperature drop by more than ten degrees instantly.
Mo Xiaotuo sensed Luo Chen's anger and thought that he was probably having a bad day at work and needed someone to vent his frustration on. She thought that by calling him now, he would let her vent her anger.
I've heard from my senior classmates that the backstabbing and infighting in office buildings could be the subject of several palace dramas, and it seems that's mostly true.
“Angel's Voice Elementary School.” She uttered the six words in a deliberately casual manner.
Luo Chen immediately pictured the school's buildings in his mind, because his company had donated a batch of textbooks to the school six months ago, and most of the children there were sick.
What are you doing there so early in the morning?
He was puzzled, when a woman's voice sounded again from the other end: "Are you free? If not... then I..."
Mo Xiaotuo wanted to say that if she didn't have time, she would take her younger brother home, but she was interrupted before she could finish speaking.
Luo Chen assumed the woman was going to say she was busy and should call her grandmother, so, filled with anger, he uttered a single word: "Go!"
Nangong Jiu sensed the tension was palpable. He was very curious about what his sister-in-law had done to provoke the usually composed Chen Ge to such an extent.
"What are you looking at? Pull out the needle and get the car!" Luo Chen, having nowhere else to vent his anger, yelled at Nangong Jiu.
Nangong Jiu looked aggrieved; it seemed that Grandma Luo's investment was not easy to obtain!
After the needles were removed, Luo Chen had Nangong Jiu drive the cheapest car to the entrance of Angel's Voice Elementary School.
"Wait here!" Luo Chen didn't want this kid to get involved in his mess, so he threw down a sentence and went inside.
Although Luo Chen had been here before, he hadn't used his real name; instead, he had come incognito, casually accompanying their department manager.
The old gatekeeper remembered him and stepped forward with a smile, saying, "It's you! Please come in!"
"You know me?" Luo Chen asked with some curiosity.
"You came here last time with General Manager Qin from the Chen family, right? You're General Manager Liu's subordinate, aren't you? But if you want to see the leader, I can't help you," the old man said with a chuckle.
Luo Chen understood; they had mistaken him for Qin Hai's subordinate.
That's good, so I won't be exposed in front of that woman later.
He called the woman again, and after finding out the location, he asked the old man to take him to find the person.
In the reception room, Mo Zhiyan leaned on her sister's arm, looking completely listless from her earlier anger.
"Zhiyan, from now on, don't believe anything those people say, okay? In this world, you're my only family, so you absolutely can't have anything happen to you," Mo Xiaotuo gently instructed her younger brother.
Um!
Mo Zhiyan responded groggily, his exhaustion making him feel drowsy.
Just then, Luo Chen walked to the door and overheard what the woman said.
"Xiao Luo, is this the person you're looking for?" the old man said warmly.
"Thank you, this is my wife," Luo Chen replied.
Mo Zhiyan was surprised that Luo Chen knew the old gatekeeper of her younger brother's school, and looked at him with great curiosity.
“Xiao Luo came here once before with the manager of Chen's Group. I happened to remember his appearance, so I brought him here. I never expected that he would be your husband. Xiao Tuo, when did you get married? I've never heard you mention it before.” The old man explained very enthusiastically.
"Thank you, Grandpa Liu. We just got married not long ago," Mo Xiaotuo said politely.
The old man chatted for a few more minutes, then waved and left.
Hearing the man's voice, Mo Zhiyan struggled to open his eyes and saw the tall, handsome man in front of him. He thought he was dreaming and pinched his hand.
"Zhiyan, what are you doing?" Mo Xiaotuo was startled. Because of the long-term medication, her younger brother's skin would bruise even if she pinched it lightly.
"Sister, is this really your brother-in-law, or just some temporary actor you hired for a hundred bucks?" Mo Zhiyan still couldn't believe that the person in front of her was the man her sister had married.
