Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Husband and Wife in Unison (1)
"Hukou matters are trivial; as long as Yuesheng is willing or when it’s time for the child to attend kindergarten, I’ll take care of it myself. It’s not a difficult issue."
Long Yubei’s words left no room for negotiation, "It’s still the same ultimatum, either Ling Qi comes to pick her up or she leaves willingly. Otherwise, she will not leave this place."
"Can we meet with them, mother and daughter?" Father Mo asked.
"Of course." Long Yubei ordered Tang Qingli to call them.
After a pause of more than ten minutes, Nan Yuesheng arrived, holding Ningyi.
Her long hair draped over her shoulders, she wore a beige dress, cradling the adorably dressed Ningyi in her arms.
Father Mo and Mo Mu only glanced at her before locking their gaze onto the child in her arms.
The child looked so much like their son.
Initially, they did not acknowledge Nan Yuesheng simply because they looked down on her family background and did not like her, nor did they approve of her.
Furthermore, since she had given birth to a daughter, they had just let it go.
Who would have thought that they would never be able to find their son, and as the nascent hope collapsed, they sought something to hold on to.
They thought of their son’s only bloodline.
So, they wanted to bring the child back and raise her themselves.
"Yuesheng, we want to take you and the child back to the Mo Family. Would you be willing?"
Nan Yuesheng replied, "We’re living well here. Yu Bei takes care of us in every way, and we’re waiting for Ling Qi to return."
Mo Mu’s face was tense, her voice somewhat hoarse, "Of course we hope that he can come back safe and sound, more than anyone else. But what if he never returns?"
"If he doesn’t come back, then my daughter and I will depend on each other for life. We will never return to the Mo Family. You didn’t want us originally, and without him, our lives at the Mo Family wouldn’t be any better. We’d always have to look at your faces. Here, I feel more at ease."
Father Mo spoke gravely, "How can you say you’d have to look at our faces? If you return, we will naturally treat you and the child well. Although Ling Qi is on very good terms with my nephew Yu Bei, after all, he is an outsider. Your and the child’s presence here could trouble others..."
"How could that be?" Long Yubei interrupted, "Yuesheng and the child living here isn’t an issue at all. Supporting them for a lifetime costs next to nothing; there’s no need to pressure Yuesheng. Continue to focus on finding Ling Qi instead. I believe he’s not dead but trapped somewhere, unable to return. I also have people constantly searching for him, so I hope you won’t give up either."
The Mo parents did not want to make the situation ugly, so, despite their displeasure, they said nothing else.
When Gu Lili came down, they left.
The living room was then left with only Long Yubei.
"Why did they leave so quickly?" Gu Li huffed, "It was such a waste for me to change clothes and put on makeup."
"How can you say it was a waste to get dressed up and put on makeup? I’ll take you out."
Gu Li asked curiously, "Where to?"
"Liang He called to meet up with me, how could I not bring you along?"
"What about Yuesheng’s issue?"
"What else? I won’t hand her over to them."
"..."
The couple drove out in the rain and headed to Emperor Palace.
Liang He had already been waiting.
"Why did you two take so long to arrive?" Liang patted his thigh and sat up straight, "I’ve been waiting so long I withered."
"Didn’t you see the lightning, thunder, and heavy rain outside?" Long Yubei sat down, "I almost didn’t want to come."
"Come on, try this fine wine of mine." Liang He poured him a drink, "Sister-in-law, would you like a bit?"
