Chapter 55 - Cover It Up
Chapter 55 - Cover It Up
Mo Yu who walked out couldn't help but twitch his lips and let out a satisfied laugh. Who knew Mo Li was such a silver-tongue lass?
At the end of the day, Lin Mu was a man who was more brawn than brain. Even after he worked his brain until his face was red, he couldn't find a comeback for Mo Li.
After the procedure was done, Mo Li strode out from the station. "Let's go."
Mo Yu felt Mo Li's attitude was slightly demeaning to him but what else could he do? Sit on the floor of the police station and refuse to go? So he huffed angrily and followed obediently behind her.
However, as they left the police station, Mo Yu's expression changed. He turned around and walked away from Mo Li.
"Where are you going?"Mo Li called after him.
"None of your business."
Liu Fan was waiting for them at the entrance of the police station. He was slightly relieved when he saw the two of them. At least both of them still had all of their limbs intact.
"Director Liu, please drive us home."
"Miss Mo Li, do you mean Elder Mo's home?" Ol' Mo already told Liu Fan that Mo Li was to return to Elder Mo's place after school. Ol' Mo also ordered him to keep an eye on Mo Li so that she wouldn't escape after school.
Mo Li nodded. Mo Yu was surprised that Mo Li was going to bring them to their grandparent's place. He was already going to protest when Mo Li raised her brow challengingly at him and said, "Well, are you coming or are you too afraid to meet your grandparents after what you have done?"
Like a child, Mo Yu's personality was easily gauged. Instantly he huffed and countered, "Of course not! What is there for me to be afraid of! I'll come with you!"
Then to everyone surprise, Mo Li turned to Lin Mu who was still standing around and ordered, "You are coming too."
Seeing this, Mo Yu instantly burst into flames. He shouted, "Mo Li, are you out of your mind?" What the hell is she thinking, inviting this Lin Mu home? I just got into a fight with Lin Mu, does she intend to have me apologize to the man before the elders? Like hell I will let that happen! If she thinks I will apologize just like that, she'll have another thing coming. Fine, I'll play along for now. I'll definitely make her regret this! Grandpa and grandma will side with me anyway.
Mo Yu recognized Liu Fan and he knew Liu Fan was Mo Family's friend. Therefore Mo Yu hopped into the man's car and occupied the front passenger seat.
Liu Fan saw how dark Mo Yu's face was. He said awkwardly, "Young Master Mo, do you mind waiting for a moment?" Mo Yu must have quarreled with Mo Li inside the station.
Soon Mo Li brought Lin Mu along and got into the car as well.
Lin Mu was confused. Why am I even following this girl's orders?
As Liu Fan got into the driver's seat and started the engine, Mo Yu turned back to look. Then he frowned at what he saw. Mo Li was wearing a jacket and it fitted the school uniform that she wore underneath. However, the offending article of clothing was the short skirt which had hiked up her fair and long legs when she was seated...
Mo Yu's eyes twitched when his gaze moved to Lin Mu who was seated beside Mo Li. Mo Yu's body trembled with fury. Where the fuck is this bastard laying his eyes?
Mo Yu immediately removed his jacket. This action startled Liu Fan who stepped on the brake. He assumed the young man was going to get into a fight. He questioned cautiously, "Young Master Mo, what's wrong?"
"Cover it up." Mo Yu ordered coldly. Seeing as no one reacted, Mo Yu repeated, "Cover it up."
Only then Mo Li realized what Mo Yu was talking about.
Lin Mu caught on as well. He coughed awkwardly and turned his eyes elsewhere. Mo Li raised her eyes at Mo Yu but did not reach for the jacket. For some reason, Mo Yu was discomfited by her gaze, he didn't even dare to look at her directly. "Just..." He wanted to say something more but the words got stuck in his throat.
In the end, he dropped the jacket on Mo Li's lap and squeezed the following out from his gritted teeth, "Fine, let's go!" Mo Yu was annoyed. Why is she seated beside Lin Mu when she is dressed like that? For shame! Has she no awareness of her appearance? A girl should be more protective of herself, especially around a goon like Lin Mu!
Mo Li adjusted Mo Yu's jacket over her lap. She looked at the back of Mo Yu's head and started to think. Even at this age, he is acting like a child. When I was his age, I was already dissecting dead bodies. Then again, this is a good thing. With his temperament, there is still chance to save this wild child. It is not too late to lead him back to the straight and narrow!
Lin Mu turned to Mo Yu and sneered, "Mo Yu, why the sudden big brother act?"
Mo Yu was in a bad mood so he fired back, "Shut up, did I ask for your opinion? More of them and I'll twist off your head and throw it out the window!"
The two shouted back and forth but thankfully it didn't escalate into a physical fight.
Liu Fan soon brought them to Elder Mo's residence. Inside the house, Mo Yu and Mo Li's grandparents were already waiting for them.
However, there was another guest at the house today. It was a woman called Qu Xuan, she was there for Young Master Mo.
Old Madam Mo didn't approve of this woman. From her wisdom, she knew that this Qu Xuan would only bring more chaos into Mo Family.
