Ye Xicheng had the same opinion as the old meatball on this.
Despite what the old meatball had done to them in the past, he had been treating them well ever since they reunited.
But that grandfather of his had been tough on his mother since the start, and that was definitely unforgivable.
Ye Xicheng and Yuan Mo completed the assembly at almost the same time when Xixi was not looking, and no one saw who finished it first.
Xixi shrieked when she saw the two completed robots.
“Who won, who won?” Xixi crawled out of Ye Yuwei’s arms and asked excitedly.
“Yuan Mo won,” Ye Xicheng said and gave his robot to Xixi after exchanging looks with Yuan Mo.
“Awesome, Brother Yuan Mo!” Xixi shouted excitedly while holding the robot that Ye Xicheng gave to her, then reached out to hug her brother. “My brother is awesome too!”
Ye Xicheng was speechless and Ye Yuwei found her daughter’s slyness both funny and annoying at the same time. This daughter of hers really knew how to not offend either of them.
“It’s getting late. Stay for dinner, Yuan Mo?” asked Ye Yuwei.
“It’s okay, auntie. My mother is coming to pick me up,” said Yuan Mo politely. His mother rarely had time for him, and he would definitely grasp the opportunity to spend time with his mother.
Ye Yuwei noticed how Yuan Mo’s eyes were glowing when he mentioned his mother. Knowing that the presence of a mother during childhood was no doubt the most important thing to every child, Ye Yuwei did not insist on making Yuan Mo stay.
Yuan Mo’s mother arrived at Gu Mansion not long after. She drove a Land Rover, and alighted the vehicle gracefully. She wore her hair short and was wearing the sky blue-air force uniform.
‘Bright and brave’ was how Ye Yuwei would describe this woman.
Unlike Mo Fei’s flirtatiousness, the aura that Yuan Mo’s mother emitted was more to righteousness.
“Mother!” Yuan Mo ran towards his mother with his bag and looked at her with his eyes sparkling.
Gu Juexi did not come out from the house at all. After all, everyone from the military had to salute him, and Gu Juexi thought that was too high-profile for him.
Xixi was clinging to her mother’s leg and peeking at Yuan Mo’s mother shyly. Knowing how rare it was for her little girl to feel shy, Ye Yuwei chuckled at her daughter in amusement.
“So sorry to trouble you. Did my boy behave?” Yuan Mo’s mother sounded as bold as she looked, and lightly smacked Yuan Mo’s head as she spoke.
“Please don’t hit Brother Yuan Mo, Auntie. Brother Yuan Mo has been good,” said Xixi quickly, seemingly worried that Yuan Mo was going to get hurt from such a gentle hit.
“My mother was just messing with me, it didn’t hurt at all,” said Yuan Mo who didn’t seem to be bothered at all and clung to his mother’s leg while giggling.
Ye Yuwei’s lips twitched at her daughter’s response and wondered what her daughter was up to.
Yuan Mo’s mother laughed carefreely. She really wouldn’t want to be in-laws with the legendary Captain Gu.
“Yuan Mo behaved well and he helped us take care of Xixi,” Ye Yuwei stated kindly.
“He had better, or I will make his dad teach him a lesson,” said Yuan Mo’s mother while patting Yuan Mo’s head to encourage him to get into the car, “we will get going then.”
“Goodbye Auntie, goodbye Xixi,” said Yuan Mo politely before climbing into the Land Rover.
Ye Yuwei and Xixi saw them off before going back into the house.
“What are you being shy about?” Ye Yuwei held her daughter’s tiny hand and asked smilingly.
