Chapter 977: Chapter 977 Stirring into Evil (2)

Mo Yan watched her father with a mischievous smile, utterly unaware of his true thoughts, and also ignorant of the fact that he had previously met Cui Qingrou. Based purely on her father’s unusual behavior just then, she felt that he had a different feeling toward Cui Qingrou.

That feeling might not necessarily be one of liking, after all, love at first sight is too rare, and they were both past the age of youthful infatuation. At most, it could be a favorable impression! However, as long as there is a good beginning and someone willing to care for and cherish the relationship, love would eventually take root and sprout one day.

Her father had led a life filled with hardship. In his youth, he lost parental support and was subject to all kinds of scheming by Old Man Mo and Mo Hong’s family. When he had finally married and had children as an adult, Mrs. Du ran away with another man, leaving him to live in the ridicule and scorn of others for many years.

Over the years, only they, his children, had been by his side, but ultimately, the three siblings would start their own families and could not be there for him every step of the way. He needed someone by his side so that when he looked up and turned around, he wouldn’t find himself utterly alone, without even someone to talk to.

Although she had known Cui Qingrou for less than a day, Mo Yan considered herself a good judge of character. Her first impression of Cui Qingrou was very positive. Not only was she gentle and dignified, but beautiful as well. More importantly, Mo Yan felt that Cui Qingrou was well-matched with her father, whether in terms of temperament, appearance, or personality. She believed that if the two of them could come together, they would lead a warm and fulfilling life.

Even if it wasn’t Cui Pingan’s aunt in the end, Mo Yan still hoped there would be another woman. Thus, she advised earnestly, "Dad, you are still young. There will come a day when we, your children, will leave you. I especially hope that there will be someone who can stay by your side to keep you from feeling lonely." Mo Yan looked at her father and said seriously, "You are without a wife, and Cui Pingan’s aunt is without a husband. If you both are willing and the Cui family has no objections, why can’t you be together? Your happiness is not only my wish but also Xin Er’s and Zhenzhen’s. So, you don’t need to worry about what we think."

"You, you girl..." Mo Qingze’s eyes warmed, and he touched Mo Yan’s head, at a loss for words.

"Hehe, are you moved now, Dad?" Mo Yan’s mouth spread into a grin as she chuckled, "Then you should hurry up and get married. I’d love to have one more person who dotes on me. But no matter how I look at it, Cui Pingan’s aunt seems to be the most suitable choice. Dad, won’t you really consider it?"

Mo Qingze: "..."

With another finger flick to his daughter’s forehead, Mo Qingze refused to answer the question.

Mo Yan touched her sore forehead, gazed at her father’s handsome profile, and began planning in her heart. She decided to find an appropriate opportunity to have a word with that lad Cui Pingan, as it also concerned his aunt’s lifelong happiness, didn’t it?

...

Cui Pingan returned safely to the Cui family, causing quite a stir among them as everyone speculated where the Seventh Master had been for nearly a month and what he had done.

After cleaning up and changing into fresh clothes in his own courtyard, Cui Pingan rushed to Old Lady Cui’s courtyard and knelt before her with a thud, seeking forgiveness.

Initially, Old Lady Cui was just thankful that her grandson had returned safely, but when Cui Pingan knelt before her, she couldn’t help but hit him several times, scolding him as a "troublemaker."

Cui Pingan remained still, allowing his grandmother to hit him, tears gleaming in his eyes. His month at the Mo Family made him realize how willful his departure from home had been. On the journey back, he had secretly decided that, apart from that one matter he couldn’t concede to his grandmother’s wishes on, he would no longer go against her in anything else.
