Chapter 738: Chapter 738: The Poor Child Takes Charge Early_1
"Borrow a car?"
Mo Han couldn’t help but give a bitter smile, Ning’er, Ning’er, the car you want to borrow isn’t a Bao Shitai, but a 4.0 liter twin-turbocharged, 550 horsepower Porsche Cayenne S, which he had spent more than 2 million to purchase at the time.
Back then, thinking of keeping a low profile, Mo Han had specifically requested He Chen to change the emblems inside and outside to Bao Shitai, never expecting that it would come back to bind him now.
Though the car wasn’t overly luxurious, it was more than enough to serve as a bridal car for a trip to a county town.
"Mm."
Luo Ning nodded, "This morning, I saw that a lot of luxury cars came, and you seem to have a pretty good relationship with them. How about you talk to them and borrow a nice car? It would be a two-day trip there and back at most."
Jiangnan City wasn’t very far from Jiangling City, but considering they would have to attend the banquet and watch the wedding, Luo Ning expected they would have to stay overnight, so she added an extra day just in case.
"Borrowing a car is not a problem."
Mo Han spoke, "I can borrow cars worth millions and even tens of millions."
"But, I feel this issue isn’t so simple."
"Think about it, He Xiaohui is pregnant, she has a younger brother at home, and her parents are demanding a 300,000 dowry. Although her husband scrambled to gather the money, his family hasn’t agreed, and they are even expecting Xiao Hui’s family to contribute to the wedding convoy."
"No matter how I see it, I don’t think this marriage is going to be that easy."
"Sigh."
Luo Ning sighed, speaking in a very helpless tone, "That’s what I think too, but Xiao Hui said, Peng Ye’s family has already booked the hotel, and the invitations have been sent out, the wedding is definitely going ahead."
"Xiao Hui is my good friend. When we got married, she both contributed money and worked hard to help a lot."
"This time, I definitely want to help her in any way I can!"
"Okay."
Mo Han nodded, and said no more.
He wasn’t directly involved and didn’t know much about the issues between the He Hui family and Peng Ye’s family. Everything would have to wait until they met next week.
...
At five fifty in the afternoon, Luo Shanchuan returned home with his granddaughter Mo Xiaochen.
Mo Han was in the kitchen preparing dinner, while Su Xiaolei, who had finished cleaning, felt slightly awkward in the living room and decided to help out in the kitchen.
"Brother Mo, why don’t you let me prepare dinner?"
Su Xiaolei spoke with a blush, "At home, I usually cook for myself, and the taste should be alright."
"You know how to cook?"
Mo Han laughed, "For a girl of your age nowadays, it’s rare to find one who knows how to cook."
"Yes, I started cooking at home when I was seven."
Su Xiaolei said, reminiscing, "My father left us when I was very young, and it was my mother who worked several jobs alone to raise me and my brother."
"She usually came back very late, sometimes even as late as one or two in the morning, and my brother would get so hungry that I had to cook by myself."
"I still remember the first time I cooked, I imitated my mother and tried to light the gas stove with a lighter, and the flame shot out immediately. I was so scared at the time, but there was no choice, my brother was watching me, and we were both very hungry, so I had to brave it and stir-fry what we had."
"That meal, I didn’t put any oil, salt, soy, or vinegar, but my brother and I still enjoyed it."
"Later when my mother returned from work and saw my brother and me eating a plate of green vegetables, she just held us and cried. After that, she started teaching me how to cook."
"Over the years, I’ve always been the one cooking at home. Brother Mo, let me try, my cooking should be pretty good..."
For some reason, upon seeing Mo Han, Su Xiaolei felt a strong sense of kinship. She had hardly ever talked about these things with anyone else, but with Mo Han, she had poured out everything.
"Poor children take on household responsibilities early."
Mo Han sighed, and while washing the vegetables, he reflectively said, "Actually, in some ways, our experiences are quite similar."
"I’m an orphan, and it was my foster mother who raised me. In order to pay for my schooling, she also had to work from dawn till late at night. With no other choice, I had to take care of everything at home."
"While other classmates would play football or hide-and-seek after school, I had to go home and cook. Back then, we also raised pigs, and after eating, I needed to feed them as well."
"Really, Brother Mo, were you an orphan? You used to feed pigs too?"
Su Xiaolei was genuinely surprised, "You know so many impressive people, I thought you were also..."
"You thought I was also somebody important?"
Mo Han chuckled, "Actually, just a few months ago, I was in a much more difficult situation."
"My business had failed, I was drowning in debt, I had trouble walking, and to top it all off, it seemed like misfortune loved company. Chen Chen was diagnosed with leukemia, and my in-laws, under the guise of treating Chen Chen, were pressuring Luo Ning to divorce me."
On hearing this, Su Xiaolei covered her lips in shock, "Brother Mo, how could they be like that... "
"It’s all in the past, it’s over now."
Mo Han waved his hand and turned to look at Su Xiaolei, "Xiaolei, if possible, I’d like you to be my god sister and continue living with us."
Despite feeling close to Mo Han, Su Xiaolei thought it over and still shook her head in refusal, "Brother Mo, I know you mean well, but my reputation is already ruined, and I can’t burden you anymore."
"I’ll just rest here for a few days, and when I’m a bit better, I’ll leave."
