Chapter 700 - Shattered Sounds

??

His voice was a little loud. Not long after, the rest of the people came out of their rooms.

Mo Zhi was the first to rush into the kitchen and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Tang Xue trembled as she shouted, “Mom...”

Mo Zhi saw the glass shards on the ground and quickly pulled Tang Xue over to look around. As she looked around, she asked, “What’s wrong, Xiao Xue? Are you hurt?”

Tang Xue’s tears fell again and she said, “I’m fine, Mom. But, but brother Mo Long is angry at me...”

Her expression was really aggrieved and pitiful. Anyone who looked at her would think that Mo Long was unreasonable and blamed Tang Xue for everything.

However, among the people present, Mo Zhi was the only one who thought this way.

She frowned and said to Mo Long, “I know you’re protecting Jiang Yu, but Xiaoxue is your sister after all. As her brother, how can you use such a tone to talk to her?”

Mo Long’s body was filled with a violent aura as he said impatiently, “My tone is very good. If you have the time, why don’t you ask your daughter what she did? After you ask her clearly, you can talk to me again.”

After saying that, he carefully held Jiang Yu’s arm and gently asked, “Does it still hurt?”

It was a completely different person from the way he looked just now.

...

Jiang Yu laughed at his fuss and said, “It’s fine. I’m no longer in pain.”

“But it’s already scalded,” Mo Long said with a pained expression.

Jiang Yu said, “I’m not that weak.”

When elder Mo heard that Jiang Yu was scalded, he immediately walked over and asked, “What’s going on?”

Jiang Yu glanced at Tang Xue. When she saw how nervous she looked, she couldn’t help but want to laugh.

However, she still didn’t say it out loud. She only said, “It was my own carelessness that caused me to lose my balance and let the hot water spill out.”

Mo Zhi immediately said, “You all heard it too. It was Jiang Yu’s own carelessness. It had nothing to do with Xiaoxue!”

As she said that, she shielded Tang Xue behind her.

“Forget it. Let’s end this matter here.” Jiang Yu said, “Everyone should be happy during the New Year. I’ve already washed it with cold water. It’s not a big deal.”

Tang Xue poked her head out from behind Mo Xhi and said, “That’s right! ‘Shattered Peace’, do you guys know that?”

Mo Long looked at her coldly and said, “You’re twisting words and logic!”

Tang Xue was so frightened by him that she immediately shut up.

In the end, Jiang Yu didn’t say how this matter was caused. Tang Xue also didn’t admit that she was the one who pushed Jiang Yu, so they could only let it go.

However, everyone knew that Tang Xue had something to do with this matter.

Even Mo Zhi pulled Tang Xue to the bed and asked, “Tell me honestly, did you pour water on Jiang Yu?”

Tang Xue replied unhappily, “I didn’t do it on purpose. I only pushed her gently. Who knew that she would lose her balance? I think she did it on purpose. After luring all of you over, she deliberately put on a show for all of you to see so that all of you would feel that she was generous.”

Mo Zhi’s head hurt as she held her forehead and said, “So it was really you? I was still so protective of you just now!”

Tang Xue said aggrievedly, “Mom, I’m your daughter. If you don’t protect me, who else can you protect?”

Mo Zhi said, “That’s not what you said. Did you forget what I told you on the way here? Also, you have to understand that we’re living under someone else’s roof. Don’t provoke Jiang Yu anymore. If it wasn’t for the New Year, do you think Jiang Yu would let you off so easily?”

Tang Xue said, “Mom, we’re from the Mo family! Isn’t it natural for us to return to the Mo Family? How did we become living under someone else’s roof?”

Mo Zhi sighed helplessly. She felt that no matter what she said, Tang Xue wouldn’t take it to heart.

Hence, she said, “I’ll tell you one last time. During this period of time when we’re in the Mo family, don’t provoke Jiang Yu. When that time comes, not to mention Mo Long, even your grandfather might take care of you!”

“How is that possible! Grandfather wouldn’t have the heart to do that!” Tang Xue said in disbelief.

“It doesn’t matter if you believe it or not, you just have to remember what I said.” Mo Zhi was a little sleepy. She turned over and got onto the bed. She said to Tang Xue, “Alright, it’s getting late. Hurry up and go to sleep.”

Tang Xue reluctantly laid down. The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she felt.

With her back facing Mo Zhi, she took out her phone and sent a message to Li Lu, asking her to bring Li Yue to the Mo family to pay New Year’s greetings.

She didn’t believe that when Li Yue was there, her grandfather would still side with that Jiang Yu?!
