Mo Xiaomo listened to Zhong Teng and Zhong Ze’s fighting, which sounded harsh but still warm instead of awkward.
This was the real family where the bickering was a feeling of harmony.
On the contrary, she and Mo Xiaoxiao pretended to be friendly, but the distance between them was like Yin and Yang, and they could never truly feel a sisterly affection…
When she got home, Mo Xiaomo was surprised by the two people sitting on the sofa.
“Well, isn’t the dinner just for Qingbao and me?” Mo Xiaomo thought. “Why are Mo Xiaoxiao and Mo Xiong there, too?”
Mo Xiaomo said hello calmly and sat down on the sofa with Zhong Teng’s help.
“Sister…” Mo Xiaoxiao’s voice was timid and uneasy.
Zhong Ze and Qingbao were playing with the remote-controlled car when he heard Mo Xiaoxiao made a noise. He shook the remote control and the car rushed to Mo Xiaoxiao’s feet.
“Ah!” Mo Xiaoxiao screamed and moved her feet.
“Why is there something with no eyes hitting our car!” Zhong Ze asked Qingbao, feigning surprise.
“Uncle Ze, didn’t our car hit it?” Qingbao replied with his innocent eyes wide open.
Zhong Ze winked. Qingbao was a little dazed. Then he said, “Oooh! It’s this woman’s athlete’s foot!”
“Qingbao!” Mo Xiaomo snapped sharply.
Qingbao stuck out his tongue and squatted on the floor as He continued to play with the toy. Zhong Ze said nothing more.
Mo Xiaomo was surprised that neither Mo Xiaoxiao nor Mo Xiong spoke anything, but their faces changed slightly and they sat in a corner away from Zhong Ze.
On the table, Zhong Nanping’s words solved all the mysteries in Mo Xiaomo’s heart.
“When Teng and Xiaomo’s wedding is over, Mr. Mo and Miss Mo will go to the overseas branch of Zhong’s group, and Miss Mo will move from the front stage to behind that. Do you have any question?”
“No question.” Mo Xiaoxiao answered with a shudder.
The meal, seemed peaceful and harmonious. In fact, everyone had its own thought.
Mo Xiong and Mo Xiaoxiao said goodbye to everyone, and Zhong Nanping arranged the driver to take them home.
No sooner had they left the room than Mo Xiaomo asked her question.
“Where is the foreign branch?”
“Africa.” Zhong Teng didn’t hide anything.
Stunned, Mo Xiaomo limped out and ran after her sister.
“Mo Xiaoxiao!” She called out to Mo Xiaoxiao as Mo Xiaoxiao was getting on the bus.
Mo Xiong in the car said something to Mo Xiaoxiao, so she was reluctant to turn around and came over with her head down.
“Why did you run after me? Are you going to laugh at me?” Mo Xiaoxiao’s tone was not friendly.
“If you don’t want to go to Africa, you can say no.” Mo Xiaomo felt heavy.
“Do you think I can?” Mo Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly. “There’s nothing wrong with that. Mr. Zhong’s salary is very high and the People in Africa are friendly.”
“I would rather I had not returned.” Mo Xiaomo sighed, her thoughts racing.
Mo Xiaoxiao looked up into Mo Xiaomo’s eyes somewhat unexpectedly, and when she saw the sincerity and calmness in her eyes, Mo Xiaoxiao got a little choked up.
“Stolen happiness must be returned in the end.” Mo Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes, making it hard to see the emotion under her eyes.
Mo Xiaomo felt an unspeakable sadness in her heart. She patted Mo Xiaoxiao’s arm as she did when she was a child, but she could not find the right words to reply.
“Sister, do you remember the night six years ago? Do you know why I asked you to help me on duty?” Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly looked up and smiled faintly.
Mo Xiaomo nodded, “Yes, you went to see your then-boyfriend Yan Yadong.”
“I picked up the watch, not intending to pretend to be you.”
Mo Xiaomo was surprised by Mo Xiaoxiao’s sudden change of tone. She silently looked at her sister, who was two years younger than her, and waited for her to continue.
