Chapter 82: Never Fight With a Girl
Lin Yang looked at Mo Li, and he was getting more and more impressed.
“Alright, dad! Now that we have settled that, let’s go already!”
Lin Yang ignored his son and turned to look at Mo Li with interest. He was not in a hurry. He was going to test this girl further, perhaps she might be good enough to be his daughter-in-law!
Father Lin was satisfied with his plan. His gaze on Mo Li was not as sharp as before. “But how can I be sure that you’re telling the truth? After all, Lin Mu is my biological son.”
Mo Yu felt the change to Lin Yang’s gaze. His eyes chilled as he glared at Lin Yang. He was like a young leopard ready to go on a prowl.
However, at the moment, Mo Li turned to look at him. The leopard instantly got reduced to a house cat. His presence wilted instantly as he looked at Mo Li. What is she up to this time?
Mo Li hooked her finger at him. It looked like she was calling a house pet over. Mo Yu’s face burned with embarrassment. Even around outsiders… she doesn’t give me any face.
When Mo Yu got close to Mo Li, the latter’s soft hands reached out to touch Mo Yu’s forehead. Mo Li’s hands were supple and warm. Mo Yu’s skin though was chilled due to the tension of the situation.
This touch caused Mo Yu to flinch. Lin Mu’s heart appeared to tingle as well. None of the people present noticed these small details.
Mo Li pulled back Mo Yu’s bangs and turned his face towards Lin Yang, “Look at this!” There was a clear scar on Mo Yu’s forehead. “This is your son’s handiwork.” Mo Li’s finger caressed the healing wound. “Is Pearl River your military base? Only Lin Family can bully us and Mo Family can’t take reasonable counter?”
Mo Yu’s brain was at a buzz. He had no idea what Mo Li was saying. His body was tense. This was a first time Mo Yu had such a close contact with Mo Li ever since they were just kids. When they were young, as the older brother, Mo Yu would often protect Mo Li… but now their roles had been swapped. As that thought entered his mind, Mo Yu’s face burned.
Lin Yang frowned because he too had a concern that he had to deal with. He realized that while he was trying to treat this negotiation seriously, his own son… was staring at the girl like his eyes were about to fall out.
When Lin Yang saw the scar on Mo Yu’s forehead, he wanted to brush it off as a scuff between young men. But seeing as how the two elders from Mo Family as well as Mo Li treated it so seriously, he thought better of it. In the end, he said in a more neutral tone, “That is just a small altercation between kids, there is no need to treat it so seriously…” But when he said that, Lin Yang realized he had lost his own footing in the argument.
Lin Yang came to the Mo Family to demand for an explanation but slowly he was cornered out of his own argument. However, Lin Yang didn’t walk away with nothing. He had his eyes set on the girl, she would be the perfect addition to the Lin Family!
“Elder Mo, I’m impressed. Even the young ladies of Mo Family is incredibly impressive!” He was surprised how good the girl was at debating, her manipulation of the situation and her own mood was superb. He was the one who came to seek trouble, but he was cornered in the end.
“There’s no better time than now, if you’re still unsatisfied, how about we fight it out instead?” Mo Li suggested.
When he heard this, Lin Yang was stunned before he broke into a guffaw. Even Lin Mu was stunned. This was the first time he heard a girl asking his father to a brawl. “What are you talking about, my dad will never dare to hit a woman.” Realizing how strange that sounded, Lin Mu quickly corrected, “I mean… my dad will never take challenges from little girls seriously.”
Lin Yang sighed internally for how useless his own son was. He lamented, “Looks like I’ve acted too recklessly this time. Since it was Lin Mu who started everything, then let’s just drop this matter.”
When Elder Mo and Mo Li heard that, their expression shifted.
Elder Mo who had been completely silent, suddenly said in an oppressing tone, “Xiao Yang, do you think you can just storm into my home to demand for explanation and leave just like that when you realize the fault lies in your own family?”
