Jiang Yu had just finished packing up in the kitchen and returned to the living room when she heard Tang Xue’s words.
“I don’t have time for you to waste here.” Mo Long rubbed his temples and said, “If you have anything to say, just say it quickly. After you’re done, leave immediately and don’t appear in front of me again.”
Tang Xue wanted to say something, but Mo Zhi grabbed her arm and pinched her hard, indicating for her to shut up and stop talking.
Tang Xue was in pain and screamed, “Ah! Mom, why did you pinch me!”
Mo Zhi smiled apologetically and said to Elder Mo, “Dad, I was wrong about what happened before. I’m here to apologize to you. Can you ask Mo Long to return the Tang family’s company?”
Elder Mo didn’t know about this, so after hearing what Mo Zhi said, he looked at Mo Long strangely and asked, “You bought the Tang family’s company?”
Mo Long nodded and said, “That’s right.”
“Why would you suddenly buy the Tang family’s company?” Elder Mo asked in confusion.
Mo Long said, “It’s all Tang Xue’s doing.”
Tang Xue was still rubbing the spot where Mo Zhi had pinched her bruise, she said in pain, “What did I do? Didn’t I just hurt Jiang Yu’s head? But didn’t I apologize to her later? Brother Mo Long, why are you still talking?”
“Is that an apology? People who don’t know would think that you’re cursing me,” Jiang Yu said from the side.
“Shut up! This is where the Mo family speaks. What right do you have to interrupt?” Tang Xue said in a bad mood.
“You also know that this is where the Mo family speaks?” Mo Long looked at her and said, “Then why are you, a person with the surname Tang, interrupting?”
“Brother Mo Long!” Tang Xue stomped her feet in exasperation. She flung her hair and said, “My mother is your aunt!”
“Alright! Stop talking!” Elder Mo shouted loudly, and everyone fell silent.
Elder Mo cleared his throat and said, “Let’s end this matter here. If there’s nothing else, don’t come to Mo Garden anymore.”
When Mo Zhi heard this, she thought that she still had a chance. If she didn’t return to Mo Garden, it wasn’t that she didn’t want to return to the Mo family, so she could still return to the Mo family in the future.
However, what Elder Mo said next completely extinguished the flame of hope that was burning in Mo Zhi’s heart.
Elder Mo said, “Don’t return to the Mo family in the future. As for the Tang family’s company, it will depend on your performance in the future. If your performance is good, Mo Long will return the Tang family’s company.”
Although Mo Long didn’t want to return the Tang family’s company so easily, his grandfather had already said so, so he had to give him some face.
So he said, “Then it depends on what you do in the future.”
Tang Xue pursed her lips and mumbled, “What else do you want us to do? Do you want Jiang Yu to smash me?”
Jiang Yu had been standing by the side, listening to their conversation. Now that she heard Tang Xue say this, Jiang Yu felt that this method was very reliable. So she picked up the ashtray on the coffee table in the living room and said, “Look, isn’t this very similar to that water cup?”
Tang Xue saw Jiang Yu pick up the ashtray and was afraid that she would really hit herself. She said guiltily, “W-what are you doing? What water cup? I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Didn’t you just say it yourself? You hurt me with the cup earlier.”
“I didn’t. You… Don’t talk nonsense!” Tang Xue’s guilty eyes darted around.
“You won’t admit what you just said so quickly?” Jiang Yu smiled and put the ashtray back in its original place. She said, “Forget it. I’m not interested in hitting people.”
Mo Zhi was regretting it now. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have brought Tang Xue here.
She had thought that even if Elder Mo didn’t recognize her, he would still recognize Tang Xue as his granddaughter. Moreover, he hadn’t seen Tang Xue for a long time. This meeting might even bring back memories of him. She felt that no matter what, she was still the daughter of the Mo family and Elder Mo would definitely recognize her.
