Chapter 3: Chapter 3

Now that this happened… Both of the parents wished that they were the one who was run over instead of their son.

Hearing movement from the staircase, Mo Yi turned around and saw Mo Li.

​​ 

Mo Li saw blame, heartache, and self-recrimination in Mo Li’s parents’ eyes. Mo Li was very unfamiliar with this. Before she transmigrated, Mo Li had no parents and was only recruited by the research institute because of her talent.

She grew up in the institute and had no family or friends.

She had some classmates to accompany her, but she was the only one stranded in the huge campus during the holidays.

Therefore, she did not know how to get along with people. Even her mentor, who she was on good terms with, only had perfunctory greetings for her after her medical achievements surpassed his.

Now, as she looked into Parent Mo’s eyes, she felt a pang of heartache. There were a lot of inexplicable emotions involved. They knew they could not side with their daughter in this matter with a clear conscience anymore. But their arguments and actions were enough to prove that they really loved this child.

Mother Mo looked at the girl standing at the corner of the stairs. She had dark circles under her eyes and she looked rather absent-minded. Mother Mo quickly wiped away her tears and ran up the stairs, afraid that something would happen to her daughter!

Mo Li, who was 16 years old, had a well-proportioned figure. She had also developed a little earlier than her peers. Since Mo Li was given birth prematurely, her family fed her with all the health tonics available. Mo Li didn’t have the typical small face, but instead her face was sharp which could make her look unapproachable. She was beautiful in a domineering type of way. Her features were sharp and pointed. She would be the kind of person whom people would call have a resting bitch face.

At that moment, Mo Li’s beautiful face was expressionless and her eyes were hollow. Mother Mo felt saddened looking at her daughter.

However, she knew she had to be stern this time. Her voice took on a hint of scolding, “Li Li, you have to take responsibility for what happened this time. You need to come to the hospital with us. You must personally apologize to your brother! If you continue to act so willfully, your parents and brothers will not forgive you!”

It was the first time that Mother Mo was so strict with her daughter.

But what they did not expect was…

Mo Li actually nodded!

Mo Li knew that no matter how she explained, they would not believe her, so it was better not to waste her breath.

As proven in the original plot, if she tried to argue, it would only be counterproductive.

By the time the sun set, Aunt Qiu had cooked a feast of mushroom chicken soup, dry-roasted sea cucumbers, stewed pork ribs, and stir-fried lily celery cashews. She put them into a lunch box and handed them over to Mo Li personally.

Before she left, she even told Mo Li not to open it as if she was afraid that Mo Li would drug the third son of the Mo family.

The Mo family house was located in the outskirts of the city, the silk stocking district. Those who were able to stay here were the cream of the crop in the Pearl River City.

Mo Zheng stayed at a private hospital, about 40 minutes away from home.

Parents Mo looked at Mo Zheng lying on the bed from outside the ward. His face was pale and his lips was bloodless. Parents Mo’s hearts wrenched with pain.

The children of the Mo family all had similar facial features. Their facial features were exquisite and three-dimensional, and all of them had small, narrow faces. They would all have a fair chance in the entertainment industry.

However, compared to his eldest and second brothers, Mo Zheng, who was four years older than Mo Li, still had that presence of youth and immaturity about him.

The spirit in his eyes were empty, and his gaze was filled with despair.

He made his debut in the entertainment world two years ago, but he already had to face the biggest challenge of his career. This was supposed to be when his career was about to soar but now it looked like he would be forced into early retirement.

Mo Yun, who was sitting beside Mo Zheng, looked up from hearing the arriving footsteps. His handsome face was shrouded in gloom.

“Zheng ‘Er, mommy has asked Aunt Qiu to make some food to help with your recovery. Would you like to have some?”

Mo Yun’s mother walked forward and looked at her son, but Mo Zheng turned his head away.

Mo Yun’s mother’s heart quivered from discouragement. Lil’ Three was always a good boy. Even if he was angry, he would not ignore his mother.

“Qing ‘Er just left. She already brought some food for Lil’ Three and she personally spoonfed Lil’ Three some. I don’t think he’s hungry anymore”

Mother Mo was stunned, she mumbled awkwardly, “Good. good, at least you have the appetite to eat… Zheng ‘Er, don’t worry, the fracture on your hand will recover. As for the injury on your leg… your father and I will contact the best surgeon for you. You don’t have to worry about anything.”

Mo Li, who was at the door, sighed helplessly. From reading the story, she knew who this ‘Qing ‘Er’ was. She was Qiao Qing, the main female protagonist of this family.

A long time ago, Father Mo sent Qiao Qing’s parents overseas for work. But for some reason, they rushed to finish their work and returned early. Due to this slight change to their schedule, they got caught in a fatal accident.

Qiao Qing became an orphan overnight.
