Chapter 739: Chapter 739: Acknowledging a Foster Sister_1

Although he hadn’t met Su Xiaolei many times, Mo Han had grown deeply fond of the girl.

This fondness was different from that between a man and a woman; it was more like the tender affection a brother has for his younger sister.

Moreover, deep down, Mo Han had always felt a profound sense of guilt toward Su Xiaolei. The thought that had been echoing in his mind was that if he hadn’t been so impulsive back then, if he hadn’t crippled Cheng Wei, perhaps people like Cheng Debiao wouldn’t have taken revenge on a frail girl like Su Xiaolei.

"Xiaolei, do you really hate me? Don’t want to acknowledge me as your brother?"

Mo Han chuckled mischievously as he deliberately said this.

"No... not at all!"

Su Xiaolei frantically waved her hands, "Brother Mo has been very kind to me, I’ve always dreamt of being Brother Mo’s sister, but..."

"There are no buts."

Mo Han assertively interrupted her, "From today on, you are my, Mo Han’s, sworn sister!"

"For your mother’s illness, don’t worry. I’ve already sent someone to handle the hospital transfer procedures. At the latest, by tomorrow morning, we can have your mother settled in Renkang Hospital, with Director Lin personally handling her treatment; there will be no problems."

"Also, I’ve already had a friend pay your brother’s tuition fees to the school and have casually mentioned it to Principal Xu. He will take extra care of him from now on."

On his way back, Mo Han had phoned He Chen to inquire about Su Xiaolei’s situation. Learning about the illness of her mother and her brother’s difficulty attending school, he had He Chen promptly arrange everything.

Although it was a bit late, it’s always better to do something late than never do it at all.

Hearing that Brother Mo had arranged for her mother’s treatment and paid her brother’s tuition fees, Su Xiaolei’s lips trembled slightly, and the tears she had been holding back finally flooded out, like a dam had been broken.

"Wuwuwu..."

With a bout of sobbing, Su Xiaolei’s nose twitched, and she suddenly knelt down, about to kowtow to Mo Han.

Mo Han quickly dodged and, taking the opportunity, tried to help Su Xiaolei up, "Xiaolei, what are you doing! Get up, quickly get up!"

"Brother Mo, you’ve been really too good to me, I really don’t know how else to thank you."

Su Xiaolei wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, her eyes reddened as she said, "No one has ever treated me this well since I was little..."

"You’re my sister, if I don’t treat you well, who else should I treat well?"

Mo Han giggled, steadying Su Xiaolei to her feet, "Alright, let’s go outside. Chen Chen loves lively scenes; she will definitely like you, her sworn aunt."

"Brother Mo, are you sure you don’t need my help?"

Su Xiaolei had calmed down a lot by now, her speech no longer tearful as before.

Mo Han waved his hand, "No need, today you just try my cooking. Tomorrow, it’ll be your turn to be the head chef."

Seeing that Brother Mo insisted, Su Xiaolei didn’t push further. She turned around, ready to leave.

"Xiaolei!"

Just as she was about to leave the kitchen, Mo Han suddenly called out, "The ones who harmed you have already met their deserved fate."

"Live well, for yourself and for those around you!"

There was a moment of silence in the kitchen. Seconds later, Su Xiaolei slowly turned around, tears once again welling up in her eyes.

Half an hour later, a table full of delicious dishes was ready.

Steamed bass, braised pork ribs, cola chicken wings, stir-fried chives and eggs, double-cooked beef slices, steamed pork with sweet potatoes, stir-fried water spinach, and a bowl of pork liver soup.

"Wow, so many delicious dishes."

Mo Xiaochen’s mouth watered at the sight of the whole table of dishes. She pouted her lips and patted her little belly, "If I had known, I wouldn’t have eaten so many fries and chicken nuggets earlier."

Mo Han chuckled, took a few disposable cups, filled them with juice, and called out to Su Xiaolei, who had just emerged from the bathroom, "Xiaolei, come on, join us."

Luo Ning had heard earlier about Mo Han acknowledging Su Xiaolei as a sworn sister, and she didn’t object at all, so she also called out, "Yes, Xiaolei, come join us, let’s all eat together."

Su Xiaolei’s slightly embarrassed hand gesture indicated, "Brother Mo, Sister Luo, I’ll just eat over here."

Mo Han pinched his daughter Chen Chen’s hand and whispered something in her ear. Chen Chen nodded, then hopped down from the table, walked up to Su Xiaolei, and said, "Auntie, shall we eat together?"

Auntie?

An entirely new appellation for Su Xiaolei, which almost instantly breached her defenses. Her eyes brimming with tears, she said, "Chen Chen, I, I..."

"Auntie, come on, let’s eat together."

Chen Chen giggled, taking Su Xiaolei’s hand and leading her to the table without waiting for her to finish speaking.

Seeing his daughter bring Su Xiaolei over, Mo Han gave a thumbs-up, then passed over the cups filled with drinks, "Come on, everyone, cheers!"

Luo Ning was the first to comply, lifting her cup. Not to be outdone, Mo Xiaochen, following her mother’s lead, grasped her cup with her little chubby hands.

Shan Chuan, the father-in-law, loved this family atmosphere. Beaming with a ruddy glow, he too lifted his cup.

Finally, Su Xiaolei, her face flushed, raised her cup as well.

"Cheers!"

As everyone’s cups clinked together, the sound of the doorbell suddenly rang from outside the living room.

Su Xiaolei was the first to react, placing her cup down, "I’ll get the door."

With a creak, the front door opened.

A middle-aged woman, about forty-five to fifty-six years old, stood at the doorstep with an unhappy face. She looked Su Xiaolei up and down, her brows furrowed as she asked, "Who are you? How did you end up in my house?"
