Just as Mo Yan was deep in thought, Mo Cheng spoke first, “Sister, I want to handle this matter myself.”
“Handle it yourself?”
Mo Yan was stunned. She had just thought of her own recording method. Although she could let Mo Cheng try it, Mo Cheng’s environment was different from hers. If Mo Cheng did this, it would be difficult for him to make friends again.
“Yes, I’ll handle it myself.”
Mo Cheng stopped in his tracks and turned to face Mo Yan.
Mo Yan also looked at her brother, who was as tall as her, and suddenly felt that Mo Cheng was different from before.
“Sister, I don’t want to live under your protection all the time.”
In fact, the reason why Mo Cheng said this was because he was talking to himself last night. When he said all the things that he had been holding back in his heart, Mo Cheng realized that there were actually many things that he could do well, it was just that he had not thought of it at that time.
He had already thought of a way to deal with a few gangster seniors. Based on how familiar they were with bullying others, he should not be the only one being bullied. Therefore, he could also find some allies.
Upon hearing Mo Cheng’s words, although Mo Yan was gratified, she still frowned. “Mo Cheng, you are still young. Don’t try to be brave. As your big sister, I should protect you. During this period of time, you should stay at home first. Wait for me to think of a foolproof plan before you return to school.”
“Big sister, what I said is true. Believe me, let me try once. If I really can’t do it, I won’t try to be brave anymore.” Mo Cheng’s gaze was firm as he said to Mo Yan.
Mo Yan wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Luo Tao’s voice.
“You should listen to your brother. If you solve everything for him, how will he grow up?”
“Luo Tao, I’m just…” Mo Yan was not frightened by Luo Tao. Instead, she was very familiar with his voice.
“Sister, trust me! Give me some time.”
Mo Cheng was already behind Mo Yan when he saw Luo Tao walking over. Naturally, he was not surprised.
Seeing that the two of them were trying to persuade her, Mo Yan had no choice but to compromise.
After the matter was settled, Luo Tao quickly changed the topic and asked what they would be eating for dinner.
He did not want this chatterbox brat to stay at their house anymore. It was fine if he could not sleep with his wife every night, but he still had to listen to this brat.
“Since I’m leaving tomorrow, then sister, don’t cook tonight. I’ll cook for you guys.” Mo Cheng smiled so much that his eyebrows curved, revealing two small canine teeth.
Mo Yan’s face stiffened, and she stuttered, “You, you’re cooking?”
“That’s right! Brother-in-law hasn’t tried my cooking, right?” Mo Cheng didn’t say anything more and directly threw the question to Luo Tao.
Luo Tao didn’t know what Mo Cheng was up to, but from Mo Yan’s expression, it seemed like something wasn’t right.
“Why don’t I cook instead!” Mo Yan pretended to smile.
“I won’t cause a fire. Sister, give me a chance.”
Since Mo Cheng had already said this much, Mo Yan had no choice but to accept her fate.
The dim yellow street lamp stretched the shadows of the three people very long. A man was holding a woman’s hand, and the youth beside him was neither too far nor too close to the woman. It was as if they were two guardians, protecting the woman.
Although Mo Cheng was the one cooking, Mo Yan still had to chop the ingredients because Mo Cheng’s knife skills were really unpraiseworthy. After Mo Yan finished chopping, Mo Cheng pushed her out.
This time, it was Mo Yan and Luo Tao’s turn to stare at each other.
The sudden solitude made Mo Yan feel a little awkward. Luo Tao cleared his throat and asked, “Why don’t you want Mo Cheng to cook?”
“Um…” Mo Yan thought for a while and didn’t know how to say it.
“Mo Cheng’s food! It might taste a little special.”
Luo Tao frowned and didn’t understand. “It might taste a little special? Was he the same as him? Unable to distinguish between sugar and salt? Or would the food already be burnt when he added the seasoning?
Mo Yan thought for a while and decided to let Luo Tao experience it himself. After all, the taste of Mo Cheng’s dishes was not appreciated by most people.
Luo Tao did not hear any strange noises from the kitchen, so he felt that it should be fine.
Therefore, Luo Tao brought up another matter that he was concerned about. “Did you have a big argument with your supervisor today?”
Although he felt that Qin Yuan was meddling in other people’s business, he had to admit that Qin Yuan’s words, “A tree that does not experience wind and rain cannot grow.” Had caught his attention. He could get Chen Ya out of the company with a snap of his fingers. However, without the experience that Chen Ya gave Mo Yan, how would Mo Yan grow?
Perhaps he would bring Mo Yan back to the Huo family in the future. Luo Tao did not know when this thought had appeared in his mind.
After being reminded by Luo Tao, Mo Yan suddenly remembered that she was still wearing the bracelet on her hand. She quickly went to look for the box and said while looking, “Yes! Chen Ya loves to have evil thoughts all day long. Shouldn’t she focus on her work?”
“Some people are born evil.” Luo Tao chuckled.
