Chapter 77 Morissa wants to sow discord between my brother and me



When Luo Chen drove back, Mo Xiaotuo had fallen asleep in the car. Back in the apartment parking lot, Luo Chen carried her out of the car and took the elevator home.

Upon reaching the first floor, they encountered Peng Yanyan, who was returning from outside. Seeing Xiao Tuo's exhausted appearance, Peng Yanyan said to Luo Chen, "Tell her not to rush to work. Let's talk about it after we've taken care of things."

"Thank you!" Luo Chen said, carrying the person out of the elevator.

Peng Yanyan followed them out, opened the door for them, and then took the elevator upstairs.

As I stepped out of the elevator, my phone beeped with a text message: someone was planning to attack Lockheed Martin's confidential systems.

At the same time, Luo Chen's phone rang, and he received the same message. However, he was busy carrying Xiao Tuo back to his room and didn't notice the text message notification.

After settling Xiao Tuo in, he went back to his room, took a shower, and went to bed.

The next morning, Mo Xiaotuo went downstairs to buy breakfast for Mr. Luo. She ate a few bites and then took the bus to the hospital to visit her younger brother.

Mr. Luo said she didn't need to worry about the hospital meals; Nangong Jiu and the others would arrange them. So she didn't buy breakfast for her younger brother, but she had to buy breakfast for Min Zhixian. After all, she had stayed up all night to take care of her brother, and she couldn't forget that.

So, she bought Min Ji-hyun some steamed buns, a bottle of soy milk, and two eggs at the hospital entrance.

As soon as I got off the elevator, I saw Min Ji-hyun dozing off in the corridor. Even the nurses who passed by couldn't help but glance at her.

Mo Xiaotuo walked over and called out, "Brother Min, you should go back and rest. Thank you for staying with me last night."

Hearing Mo Xiaotuo's voice, Min Zhixian woke up. He sat up and saw that she was holding breakfast in her hand. He said, "Zhiyan can't eat these yet. She can only eat liquids."

"This wasn't bought by Zhiyan, it's for you. I don't know if you'll like it or not?" Mo Xiaotuo handed the item to Min Zhixian.

Min Ji-hyun was somewhat flattered and accepted the breakfast from Xiao Tuo, feeling a warm feeling in her heart.

Steamed buns, this is what she likes to eat, and it's what he likes to eat too.

Seeing that Min Ji-hyun was enjoying her meal, Mo Xiaotuo went in to check on her.

Zhiyan was still asleep, but her complexion was much better than yesterday, which meant the medicine was working.

Min Ji-hyun really knows what medicine her younger brother needs. Just how familiar are they?

Mo Zhiyan woke up when he heard the noise. Seeing that his sister had come so early, he smiled and tried to sit up.

Mo Xiaotuo came over and helped her up, discovering that Zhiyan could sit up. As long as she could sit up, her recovery would be faster.

"Sister, Brother Min said he changed my medication to what it used to be. I'll be fine after resting for two days." Mo Zhiyan also felt much better today and wasn't as weak and powerless as she was yesterday.

"Zhiyan, are we really that close to Brother Min?" Mo Xiaotuo asked curiously.

When Mo Zhiyan realized that her sister had really forgotten about Min Ge, she told her sister about the time when they lived together at their grandmother's house when they were young, to see if her sister could remember anything.

After hearing this, Mo Xiaotuo asked curiously, "Then why have I never heard you mention him before?"

Mo Zhiyan bit her lip, her eyes welling up with tears of sadness: "Brother Min left because of a family emergency. At first, I could still call him, but then I found out that the number was no longer in use. I was worried that telling my sister would make her worry, so... I never dared to mention it."

Mo Xiaotuo hugged her younger brother. Her brother was such a child, yet so sensible. That damned Morissa had the heart to hurt him.

"Xiao Tuo, I'm sorry, sister..." She wanted to say something, but the words caught in her throat and she didn't dare to say them.

"Sis, I'm almost ten years old, I'm not stupid. Morissa is trying to sow discord between us siblings. She keeps saying that your husband isn't good enough for you, she probably has her eye on him." Mo Zhiyan was only focused on being angry before, and didn't think about this. Now that she's calmed down, she realizes that Morissa really wants to steal her brother-in-law away.

From childhood, Morissa always compared herself to her older sister. After they returned to the Mo family home, Morissa became even more competitive. Because of this, her sister was unwilling to excel in anything, whether it was studying or doing anything else. Others might not know how outstanding her sister was, but he knew it all too well; she was a true all-around academic genius.

Having experienced Pan Lei's situation before, Mo Xiaotuo had become indifferent to many things. She smiled slightly and said, "What you can truly take away is what doesn't belong to you. Don't force what doesn't belong to you."

Mo Zhiyan looked at his sister with a half-understanding. His grandmother had told him before that if he liked something, he should strive for it, and if he got it, he should protect it. The adults' words were too profound for him to understand at the moment.

Around noon, Luo Chen arrived. When he entered and saw the siblings chatting and laughing with Min Zhixian, he felt a lump in his throat, but he didn't show it.

He bought some cheese sticks that kids like, deliberately asked what toys a ten-year-old likes, and even brought some toys for Zhiyan.

"Is Zhiyan feeling any better than yesterday?" He smiled as he approached the bedside.

Mo Xiaotuo then noticed that Mr. Luo had arrived. Seeing that he was dressed in a suit and tie, she guessed that he would be going to the company in the afternoon.

The order was finalized yesterday, but there are still some details to check. Luo Chen also had an appointment with his older brother this afternoon. Seeing that Mo Zhiyan's condition had improved, he felt much more relieved.

"I feel much better, thank you!" Mo Zhiyan still didn't call him brother-in-law.

Luo Chen felt uneasy. After putting down the cheese sticks and toys, he reminded Xiao Tuo, "Xiao Tuo, remember to call his teacher Jiang. I noticed that teacher Jiang cares about him quite a bit."

"Right, I almost forgot, Ah Chen is so thoughtful." Mo Xiaotuo quickly took out her phone and called Teacher Jiang.

When Teacher Jiang heard that Zhiyan was alright, she said she would come to visit her in the afternoon. However, Zhiyan told her that she could go back to school tomorrow and that she didn't need to come.

"Can we go back to school tomorrow?" Mo Xiaotuo felt it was a bit too soon, and she was worried that her younger brother's health might be compromised.

"Brother Nangong said that as long as there are no problems today, we can go back tomorrow. Don't worry, sister, our school has doctors from Shengfan, and Brother Nangong said he will arrange everything." Mo Zhiyan told her sister what Brother Nangong said during his rounds this morning.

It turns out the school has always had a partnership with Shengfan, no wonder they sent the student directly to Shengfan when something happened.

Upon hearing this, she looked at Mr. Luo with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Ah Chen!"

“We’re husband and wife, and he’s my brother-in-law. What’s there to thank me for?” Luo Chen said, taking Mo Xiaotuo’s hand.

Mo Xiaotuo's face was filled with a happy smile; perhaps this was the feeling she had been waiting for.

Mo Zhiyan glanced at Brother Min secretly, knowing that Brother Min must be feeling bad, and deliberately changed the subject, saying, "Brother Min, when I feel better, I will go back to offer incense to my grandmother."

"I'm available anytime. I'll be in City A for the time being. Just give me a call if you need anything." Min Zhixian forced a smile. He hadn't slept well last night, and his face was a little pale. When he smiled, he looked just like a frail scholar.

Luo Chen had an appointment in the afternoon, and after lunch he rushed to the company. Before leaving, he asked Nangong Jiu to keep an eye on things for you.

Not long after Luo Chen left, Min Zhixian was also called away by phone, and she looked rather unwell when she left.
