The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Chapter 351: Right Track

Mo Li scratched her head, feeling quite helpless. Ross was a very strange man. Earlier, he suspected her ability but now he had solved their biggest problem.

So the most important thing now was to measure Mo Zheng’s leg. They needed to make a 3d bone and fit it into Mo Zheng when the rest of the family was away. It would solve many problems.

…

On the other hand, Mo Xiao recovered somewhat after dinner. He tried to recall what happened in the past few months. He felt there was something wrong with his little sister. It was like she had changed into a completely different person.

Based on his original understanding, even though his little sister had the surname Mo, her heart was not with the family. Furthermore, she was a useless wastrel from being pampered too much.

However, according to the nurses, it was Mo Li who made the many decisions that saved his life. Even though he was in a coma from being tortured on the ship, he could feel Mo Li’s presence around him. When he opened his eyes, he could see Mo Li talking medicine with his physician. This was impossible because, with Mo Li’s grades, she shouldn’t know anything about medicine.

Mo Xiao left his room to fetch some water. He walked into the living room and the sensor lights came on. They cast a shadow on Mo Xiao’s gaunt face. He walked to the kitchen to grab a glass of warm water. He sat on the couch. He tried to think who had tried to target him, and what had happened to his little sister. Mo Xiao looked around the living room. Ever since his torture on the boat, Mo Xiao had developed PTSD. However, he didn’t tell anyone. He was now afraid of darkness and abandonment.

The silence of the house slowly overwhelmed Mo Xiao. His heart started to race and he choked on his water. His heart was running on overdrive from fear. He could imagine himself dying all alone in the dark.

Just as he was about to faint, Mo Li’s voice came from upstairs. “Why aren’t you resting? What are you doing there? If you want to ruin your body, at least go back home and meet our parents first!”

Mo Li’s voice immediately comforted Mo Xiao. The man’s heart slowly returned to normal.

Mo Li was not a deep sleeper so she quickly got up when she heard Mo Xiao coughing. When she came downstairs, she saw Mo Xiao lying on the sofa weakly. She had half a mind to toss this man out of the house because she didn’t want to be his nanny.

Mo Xiao didn’t have the energy to argue with Mo Li. As his heart calmed down, lethargy came over him and he fell asleep.

The next morning, Mo Xiao opened his eyes to his younger cousin, Mo Yu looking at him. “What are you doing here?”

Mo Yu didn’t know how to answer either. Mo Li called him over because she said that she needed his help to look after someone important. Mo Yu didn’t expect that person to be Mo Xiao. Everyone knew that he didn’t have a good relationship with Mo Xiao, they barely spoke when they much. So why did Mo Li ask him to come to take care of Mo Xiao? Mo Yu wondered if Mo Xiao would chase him away…

Mo Xiao glanced at Mo Yu and then his gaze softened. Other than a simmering annoyance, there was something inexplicable.

The two men got on awkwardly. They only exchanged a few words. Just in case Mo Li came back to Mo Xiao’s dead body, Mo Yu followed the instructions given to him by Mo Li. He prepared Mo Xiao’s food 3 times a day.

When Elder and Old Madam Mo returned home, Mo Yu immediately escaped.

Mo Li found a reliable dietitian to help Old Madam Mo to plan a menu to nurse Mo Xiao back to health.

There was at least half a month before their parents returned from holiday. Studying the health reports Mo Yun had been sending her, Mo Li believed Mo Zheng was ready for the surgery. Mo Li sighed in relief.

Everything was going on track. Winter break was coming soon and Mo Li would focus on her medical study. Mo Li held her chin and looked out the glass window. Her mind wandered far away.

…

At the business street not far away from Mo Li’s school, Lu Ke looked at the man before her arrogantly. “So what is your decision?”

The man before him wore black pants, a leopard print shirt, and a gold-plated chain. He studied the files Lu Ke had handed him.

“What is the meaning of this? Everyone knows that my family has already fallen. Our family initially didn’t have eyes for the Mo Family and my father broke off the engagement. Who would have thought they are now so successful. Tsk, the girl is also so much prettier than she was back then!”

Luo Cong finished the latte with one gulp and shouted at the barista. “Hey, a refill over here.”

Lu Ke’s face turned up with disdain. If she didn’t have need of this man, she wouldn’t be seen with him.
