Chapter 822: Chapter 822: The 280th Betrothal in Reclamation (3)

This conversation was also the first time Mo Yan had ever so boldly and passionately expressed her feelings for Xiao Ruiyuan to Mo Qingze. Mo Qingze didn’t find his daughter’s words to be indecent; rather, a nameless sourness welled up in his heart.

Another long silence ensued, so prolonged that Xin Er and the others outside could no longer restrain themselves. They pushed open the door of the study and burst in, giving their father the final nudge!

With her arms wrapped around her father’s left arm, Xin Er entreated, "Dad, please agree. We don’t want anyone other than Brother Xiao to be our brother-in-law!"

"Dad, Sister is right, Zhenzhen also doesn’t want anyone else to be our brother-in-law, Brother Xiao is really good!" Zhenzhen, not wanting to be left behind, clung to her father’s right arm, her expression extremely earnest.

"Godfather, Shengsheng also likes Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao is a good person, and he will love Big Sister just like you love Shengsheng!" Shengsheng was still young and couldn’t distinguish between different emotions, but it was exactly this kind of innocent remark that was most heartwarming.

Yun Zhao, under the watchful eyes of his sisters and brothers, also made a request, "Godfather, Brother Xiao is very good, Sister Yan will be happy!"

Mo Qingze: "..."

At that moment, Mo Qingze felt extremely frustrated. His eldest daughter was already bewitched by that damn kid, and now his son, daughter, and even his foster children were also strangely siding with that outsider, as if he were the villain for not consenting.

With this thought, Mo Qingze’s face took on a displeased look, and he felt a twinge of jealousy. He couldn’t lash out at the children, nor did he have any reason to oppose Xiao Ruiyuan as his son-in-law any longer. Somewhat impatiently, he said, "I can’t control you all anymore, do as you wish!"

Having said that, he glared at the youngsters before turning and swiftly leaving the study, worried that if he lingered any longer, he might regret his decision.

Had he just agreed?

Mo Yan and Xiao Ruiyuan exchanged glances, both stunned and slow to recover from their surprise.

"Look quickly, don’t Sister and Brother Xiao look silly?" Zhenzhen asked the others, giggling merrily.

With an annoyed pinch to his face, Xin Er scolded, "You’re so disrespectful, be careful or Dad will spank you!"

Feigning fear, Zhenzhen ran behind Xiao Ruiyuan and, holding onto his arm, said pitifully, "Brother Xiao, if Dad ever spanks me, you’ll help me, right?"

Xiao Ruiyuan cast a covert glance outside the room, lowered his head to ruffle his little brother-in-law’s hair, and would have liked to say that his future father-in-law would be furious enough to beat both of them, but seeing Zhenzhen’s pitiful face, his words came out differently, "Brother Xiao won’t help you because Uncle Mo has good reasons for disciplining you. But Brother Xiao can’t bear to see you suffer alone, so I’ll take the spanking with you to calm Uncle Mo down faster."

"Brother Xiao, you are so kind, Zhenzhen loves you so much!" Zhenzhen buried himself in Xiao Ruiyuan’s embrace, his little face full of emotion, "Zhenzhen only recognizes you as our big brother-in-law! But you have to treat Big Sister well, and Zhenzhen too, otherwise, I’ll definitely take Big Sister back and make sure you never see her again."

Childish as these words were, they came straight from Zhenzhen’s heart and served as a reminder to himself as well as a warning to his future brother-in-law.

Xiao Ruiyuan did not take his little brother-in-law’s words as child’s play. Looking into Zhenzhen’s eyes, he replied solemnly, "Brother Xiao won’t give you that chance."

Tears welled up in Mo Yan’s eyes, and she quickly covered them up, saying, "Zhenzhen, don’t always expect others to help you. If you’re a bit more obedient and don’t make Dad angry, how would he ever spank you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhenzhen’s face was written with grievance, "But there are things I don’t think I did wrong, yet Dad refuses to listen to my explanation and spanks me quite severely."
