Chapter 15: The Female Lead

Translator: Lonelytree 

The days flowed like water down a stream. This was the 4th day of Mo Li being grounded. During this period of time, apart of the daily meal hours, she had been up to her own business which no one knew about.

The noticeable change though was there had been a solid improvement in Mo Li’s studies… although that was technically just something she did to get Han Xu off her back.

​​ 

So far, she had determined 2 goals for herself:

One, to cure Mo Zheng’s leg length issue, to prevent the trauma from affecting him and thus the Mo Family in the future.

Two, to solve the mystery of the car accident. First, she should find the witness and camera footage from the car accident.

Strangely enough, the surveillance footage from all the cams around the accident site were perfectly fine but the footage which would have taken the driving car from the front had mysteriously disappeared. Stranger still was the fact that there was no other trace evidence inside the car other than Mo Li’s fingerprint. It was too clean that the whole thing smelled fishy. Mo Li didn’t know how to drive but other people would have used that car. But somehow only Mo Li’s fingerprints and hair were found inside the car? If that was not suspicious, what was?

Furthermore, there was supposedly a witness at the crime scene but when the police wanted to get their statement, they had mysteriously disappeared. Anyone with a brain would suspect this was a frame job.

Mo Family and the police appeared to be blind to these incongruities in the case, they didn’t even launch an investigation into the missing footage. This was because they had a firm testimony from Mo Zheng.

After the incident, Mo Li tried explaining the situation to her family, but no one listened…

Therefore, in the original story, Mo Li’s argument changed from, “I was not behind the wheels. I don’t know how my fingerprints got there,” to “Fine, I was the one who hit him with the car! You know what, I regret not killing him with it!

“In fact, don’t you break my legs and call it even? Is that good enough for all of you?!”

That day, after Mo Yun had finished his work, he decided to give Mo Li a day’s break so that she could visit Mo Zheng at the hospital with him. When they left home, Mo Li was carrying a small bag, bulging with things.

Mo Yun glanced at it but did not ask for details. After all, it was normal for girls to carrying lots of stuff when they went out.

As the car was about to leave the parking lot, a figure suddenly rushed out. Mo Yun stepped on the brake and only when the car halted that he realized it was Qiao Qing!

It was a weekend so it was not that surprising to find her at home too. She stood at the front of the car, holding a lunchbox in her hand. It seemed like she had prepared it for Mo Zheng.

The Mo Family lived in the silk stocking area where none of the residents had any use for public transport so no bus route passed through here. Calling a taxi would be very expensive.

Mo Yun gave Mo Li a sideways glance. Seeing her lack of reaction, Mo Yun rolled down the window and told Qiao Qing, “Get in!”

This Qiao Qing was indeed the pure, cute, innocent type. As described in the original novel, Qiao Qing was an obedient girl. Her innocent, delicate and harmless appearance belied her obstinate and driven nature.

She was the opposite of Mo Li who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Despite Qiao Qing’s delicate beauty and outstanding talents, she was also very kind. Unlike Mo Li, who was arrogant and ruthless.

“First Young Master… I, I can cycle there myself. But I’m afraid that the food will get cold when I arrive. Zheng… I mean the third young master wouldn’t appreciate it as much. Would you give it to him for me? I’ll meet with him later.”

Mo Li looked at Qiao Qing. This girl’s whole speech and demeanor exuded an aura of helplessness. Mo Li could never manage something of the sort. If she ever attempted that, it would only make herself and others feel uncomfortable.

Qiao Qing politely rejected Mo Yun and handed the lunchbox to him. Her voice was soft, her tone gentle and polite.

“We’re going to the hospital anyway. You should come with us. I’m sure Mo Zheng will be happy to see his little sister.” The moment the sentence left his mouth, Mo Yun regretted it. He realized how badly that would reflect on Mo Li.

Regardless, Qiao Qing nodded after some hesitation. Since they were going to the same place, there was no reason for her to reject the offer.

She walked to the backseat and opened the door. She was greeted by a set of clean clothes and a stony-faced Mo Li. She visibly flinched before she waved at Mo Li and escaped to the passenger seat. She looked so nervous and fidgety that you would think Mo Li would eat her alive.

Mo Yun opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.

Along the way, he observed Mo Li sitting in the back through the rearview mirror. She quarreled with Lil’ Three because of Qiao Qing. If Mo Li did have the intention to turn over a new leaf, her attitude towards Qiao Qing should be friendlier and amiable. However that was not the case. Mo Li didn’t provoke Qiao Qing but she didn’t exactly warm up to Qiao Qing either.

Instead she spent most of her time looking down at the tablet in her hand. Occasionally, she’d check her phone.

So it was up to Mo Yun to engage Qiao Qing with conversations. This was also the perfect opportunity for him to know more about Lil’ Three. After all, Mo Zheng rarely interacted with his family after he joined the entertainment business. The two brothers shared less words compared to that between Mo Zheng and Qiao Qing.

Qiao Qing answered Mo Yun’s questions obediently. Along the way, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
