Chapter 949: Mo Bai Fanwai 39, Kids Stick to Mom [Eight Updates]
“Little girl.”
“Little girl?”
Mo Weiyi snapped back to reality, “Thank you.”
Perhaps noticing that her complexion was a bit off, the pharmacist smiled reassuringly, “Don’t worry, if it’s a family member taking these medications, take him to a regular hospital for a checkup as soon as possible. If only a small amount was taken, there shouldn’t be any major problems.”
“What if they’ve been taking them for three years?”
The pharmacist was taken aback, “That long? Hasn’t your family member shown any signs of irregularities in their daily life? How come you are only discovering this now?”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Indeed.
She had only discovered it now.
She had been gone for more than three years; why hadn’t anyone noticed? Didn’t anyone know that he had fallen ill?
**
After leaving the pharmacy, Mo Weiyi dialed Zhan Yao’s mobile number.
The one closest to Xiao Yebai was him.
But who knew…
[I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off.]
Mo Weiyi had no choice but to head home first.
Upon entering the living room, she noticed a pair of unfamiliar men’s leather shoes at the entrance.
Mo Weiyi was surprised and quickly changed into slippers before proceeding further.
As expected.
“Princess, the gentleman is here.”
Mo Yaoxiong had already stood up from the sofa.
Having not seen him for more than three years, his appearance hadn’t changed much, but…
Mo Weiyi could hardly recognize him.
Because his hair had almost completely turned white, and he appeared especially thin. His cheeks were sunken, and his nasolabial folds were deep, highlighting the traces of the years.
“Dad…”
At this address, Mo Yaoxiong’s eyes reddened, “Weiyi, I am truly happy that you still acknowledge me as your father…”
“It’s all in the past.” Mo Weiyi felt deeply moved too, “Dad, I’m sorry. When I left without saying goodbye, I worried you… How have you been all these years?”
“I’m fine, I’m very fine.” Mo Yaoxiong said as he pulled out his phone, “When Auntie Zhou called me, I couldn’t quite believe it, until she sent me a picture of the child.”
On the phone, Little Nuonuo, dressed in an Ultraman outfit, was squatting on the couch playing with colorful toys.
The background of the photo was unmistakably the “children’s room” at the Lishui Bay Villa.
It must have been specially taken by Auntie Zhou for him to see.
Mo Weiyi nodded, “Yes, his name is Mo Yinuo, nicknamed Nuonuo, he is two years and seven months old now, and exceptionally healthy. I was planning to take the child to the temple to see you tomorrow.”
“I know you are now working at the law firm, so I requested leave from the Abbot and came back especially to see you.”
“Will you go back to the temple?” Mo Weiyi frowned, “Look, I have already brought the child back. Why don’t you stay here? There are plenty of rooms. You could live here, or at the old house if you prefer. I will bring the child to visit you every now and then.”
“When I went to the temple two years ago, I agreed with the Abbot on the duration. I still have one month left. We need to see things through.” After saying this, Mo Yaoxiong became somewhat excited, “Rong An said that Nuonuo is sleeping upstairs, can I go up and see him?”
“Of course you can.” Mo Weiyi hurried forward, “Dad, I’ll take you upstairs.”
“Alright.”
**
Pushing open the bedroom door, Little Nuonuo was lying with his eyes closed on the pale-colored bed, spreading his limbs widely in a very abandoned sleeping position.
Mo Yaoxiong looked at his adorable little grandson, his eyes couldn’t help but moisten, “He’s so beautiful, Nuonuo looks really lovely, very much like you, Weiyi.”
Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but argue, “But why does everyone who sees him say he doesn’t look like me.”
“Like yours,” Mo Yaoxiong said, “When he’s asleep, he looks just like you did as a child, and these lips, this chin…”
Mo Weiyi took it as him just being deliberately kind, “Dad, Nuonuo will wake up soon, you can play with him for a while, he’s not shy at all.”
Back in Quebec, Mo Weiyi showed the child pictures of Mo Yaoxiong, telling him that this was Grandpa.
Considering that Little Nuonuo could get affectionate in less than half a day with Xiao Yebai, whom he’d never met before, he surely wouldn’t be shy around this grandpa, right?
“Okay,” Mo Yaoxiong glanced at the time, “but I have to go back tonight, there might not be enough time…”
“I’ll ask Rong An to drive you.”
Hearing this, Mo Yaoxiong said, “Actually, I went to your villa at Lishui Bay first, it’s just that Yebai wasn’t home…”
Mo Weiyi nodded, “I know.”
She didn’t mean to blame him, but Mo Yaoxiong was anxious to explain, “I only asked the Abbot for half a day off, and I planned to find Yebai first and then come to see you and the child together…”
“I’m not blaming you.”
“Weiyi, in my heart, I have always regarded you and Yebai as my own flesh and blood…”
Perhaps because his voice was a bit excited, Little Nuonuo, who was sound asleep, suddenly moved his tiny fingers and twisted his head, instinctively opening his mouth to cry, “Mommy… wu wu wu…”
Mo Weiyi quickly patted his chest, “Good baby, Mommy is here.”
Little Nuonuo rubbed his eyes and mumbled, “Mommy, Mommy…”
Seeing that he was awake, Mo Weiyi picked up the little one and gestured, “Baby, look who this is?”
Little Nuonuo squinted his eyes, trying to recognize for a while.
Mo Yaoxiong was also looking at him, his eyes and the corners of his mouth showing a clear desire to please.
“Does baby not remember?” Mo Weiyi cooed to her son softly, “Mommy showed you a picture before, this is Grandpa, don’t you remember?”
“Grandpa?” Little Nuonuo still looked confused.
“Yes,” Mo Weiyi said with a smile, “shall we let Grandpa hold you, is that okay?”
Mo Yaoxiong immediately extended his arms, “Nuonuo, is it okay to let Grandpa hold you?”
Little Nuonuo was almost delivered into his embrace.
His soft, boneless little body, carrying a faint milky scent…
Mo Yaoxiong carefully held his grandson, just about to bend down to kiss his face…
“Mommy! Mommy!” Little Nuonuo, startled, raised his hands and desperately twisted his little body, “Mommy! Mommy!”
Mo Weiyi was speechless.
This child…
And she had just been thinking he surely wouldn’t be shy.
Mo Yaoxiong, not daring to move, hastily said, “Weiyi, better if you hold him.”
Back in his mother’s familiar arms, Little Nuonuo instantly settled down, his soft body lazily lying against his mom, his hands tightly wrapped around her neck.
“Children always cling to their mothers.” Mo Yaoxiong, finding the little one adorable, suddenly said, “I have made too many mistakes in my life, perhaps starting when I was a teenager, meeting Yebai’s mother was the first mistake. I was too timid back then, afraid to go against your grandfather’s wishes, so when Yebai’s mother left, I didn’t dare to find her. This caused her and Yebai to suffer so much in Tongcheng for all those years.”
After a long sigh, he continued, “The second mistake, I shouldn’t have concealed the affair with Xu Jing. I was too timid, which led me not to verify the truth immediately when the incident occurred, but to choose to hide it. Later, it led to Xu Xian hating out of love, doing so many terrible things, killing so many innocent lives.”
“The third mistake, which I regret the most in my life… When I found Yebai, I should not have hidden it from your grandfather, nor should I have let Xu Xian join me in concealing the truth. Xu Xian was a very good woman, she endured for your sake, for the entire Mo Family, and helped me hide the truth. But she was very unhappy in her heart, always preoccupied day and night, leading to sleepless nights, only able to rely on sleep medicine to help her sleep. Over time, it accumulated into a sickness, and she developed depression… But back then I didn’t take it seriously, I just thought she was too narrow-minded, she couldn’t accept Yebai, until she became mentally unstable, and finally…”
“Dad,” Mo Weiyi’s eyes were red, “the past is past, why do you still blame yourself now?”
“Because these were my own mistakes, so I must confess before the Buddha, cleanse my sins, ask for forgiveness from the heavens; I don’t want my sin to be passed on to my children…” Having said all this, Mo Yaoxiong finally asked, “Weiyi, is there still a possibility for you and Yebai?”
Mo Weiyi said, “Nuonuo and I are living well now, you don’t have to worry about us. These past years I’ve been studying abroad, and now I’ve obtained my lawyer’s license and work at Yurui. Besides, grandfather allocated so many shares to me and Nuonuo, even if I didn’t do anything, the two of us can live without worries.”
Hearing this, Mo Yaoxiong’s expression appeared somewhat disappointed, “Back then Yebai refused to accept those shares no matter what, and he never listened to my advice, it seems he was determined to leave them for you and the child.”
Mo Weiyi nodded.
“It seems that time really can change a lot of things.” Mo Yaoxiong looked at her, “Three years have passed, and you have become much more composed and mature than before.”
“Dad, just say what you want to.”
