Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing - Chapter 244
Chapter 244: Little B*tch, Nicely Beaten (5)
Someday, she would take double the revenge on her.
“Manman.” Mo Kun walked over as well. His tone was sincere and helpless as he said, “Our Mo family is really contented to have a daughter-in-law like you. I thank you on behalf of your sister.”
“No need, Dad. Since we’re family, Mo Li is your daughter and my sister. My parents only have me, and I don’t have any biological siblings. I like Xiao Li a lot too. We’re family, so there’s really no need for this,” Lu Manman said with a smile.
“Mm-hm, Dad’s really happy that you think that way. Let’s not talk about anything else. We haven’t had lunch yet. Let’s have lunch first,” Mo Kun hurriedly said.
It had to be said that the two elders of the Mo family were both apologetic and glad to see Lu Manman. This incident had indeed made Lu Manman perform well in the Mo family.
The whole family gathered around the dining table.
The atmosphere, which had been tense a moment ago, suddenly felt so cozy.
The two elders of the Mo family kept putting food into Lu Manman’s bowl enthusiastically because they were satisfied with her performance today.
Lu Manman smiled and picked up some food for Mo Li.
Everyone looked at her.
Lu Manman smiled. “Sister, eat more.”
Mo Li put on a grateful look. “Thank you, Sister-in-law.”
Her heart was probably so twisted, but she had nowhere to vent it.
Lu Manman seemed to be smiling from ear to ear.
Mo Li knew that she was doing this on purpose.
Lu Manman’s actions snapped Jiang Yuyan out of her daze. She hurriedly placed some more food into Mo Li’s bowl, afraid that she would feel neglected again. After she was done, she even smiled at Lu Manman gratefully as if thanking her for the reminder.
Lu Manman simply smiled and nodded.
Mo Li’s evil expression deepened as she ate!
The family looked so cozy.
After lunch, Lu Manman politely bade farewell to the two elders of the Mo family. She was supposed to be returning to her parents’ home today but had missed out on so much time. The two elders of the Mo family were also feeling very guilty. Lu Manman said generously, “We’re all family. Don’t worry, Dad and Mom. We actually don’t have that many banquets at home. It’s alright if we go back later.”
“Okay. Take care, Manman. Send our greetings to your parents.”
“Alright.” Lu Manman smiled and left.
Mo Yuanxiu followed her.
The two of them sat in the luxurious limousine.
It seemed like they had not interacted in a while today, be it in terms of words or exchanging eye contact.
They sat in the car and did not say a word. As there was plenty of space, they sat quite a distance away.
The car drove along the streets of Wen City.
Lu Manman looked out the car window at the scenery and did not look too good.
Mo Yuanxiu looked at her calmly without much expression on his face.
“Are you tired?” he asked her suddenly.
Lu Manman did not even turn around. “It’s alright.”
Mo Yuanxiu pursed his lips. The two of them did not seem to have much to talk about.
Lu Manman suddenly turned to look at him. “Do you hate me for exposing your sister? No matter what, we’re still in a marriage in name. I shouldn’t be involved in your family matters.”
He shrugged. “Who knows.”
“How’s your relationship with your sister?”
He smiled. “It’s alright.”
“What do you mean?”
“We grew up together, after all. Of course she matters to me,” Mo Yuanxiu said nonchalantly, appearing calm and composed.
