Mo Linyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Leng Rongrong, showing surprise.
What solution could this woman possibly come up with?
“What are you staring at me for? Of course we are going to get the stuff from the Mo Family. Honestly, you are so dumb. I know that you are not healthy, but your brain is still working, right? Why do you keep getting bullied by them? You should guard whatever belongs to you!”
Leng Rongrong said with a firm tone.
Tang Luo’s lips started to twitch.
Was she implying that Master is dumb? He was a smart guy, alright? He was actually the richest man in the entire world. The Mo Family looked as if they possessed everything, but as a matter of fact, his Master had already taken control of all matters.
If not for finding out the truth behind some issues, Master would not have pretended to be a useless cripple all this while.
Mo Linyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Leng Rongrong who was like a furious rabbit. He spoke in a freezing voice. “How do you plan to get the money from them? Do you think the Mo Family would give you whatever you want?”
“No matter what the Mo Family says, we first would need to ask them for the stuff.”
Leng Rongrong shook her head. “Honestly, if you don’t make any demands, how would you know whether they are going to agree or not?”
Having said the words, Leng Rongrong picked up Mo Linyuan’s phone and made a call to the Mo Family.
Leng Rongrong told the other side straightforwardly that the place was in a bad state and lacked many things. Either they needed to deliver the required stuff here and dispatch some men to tidy up the house, or the newly-weds were going to move back to the Mo Family’s mansion right away.
Leng Rongrong looked beautiful and gentle, but when she spoke, her words were quite sharp. After just a few sentences, the butler of the Mo Family was in a sticky situation.
Most of the people in the Mo family wanted Mo Linyuan out of the mansion.
Now that they had managed to send him away, Leng Rongrong’s words suddenly threatened to reverse the situation.
Moreover, their reputation would be ruined, if the moving in and out was captured by the journalists.
“You have one hour to send the stuff and your men here. Else, I and the Fourth Master would be moving back to the house. Also, this time, we will bring the media along. I don’t care about my own reputation, but does the Mo Family not care about theirs?”
Leng Rongrong disconnected the call after lashing out.
Seated next to her, Mo Linyuan asked her with a calm face. “You are sure they can reach here within an hour?”
“Of course not, but had I not threatened them, they might not even get here even by tomorrow, despite agreeing to it verbally.” Leng Rongrong gave a short laugh.
Stomach grumbling…
Mo Linyuan and Tang Luo looked at Leng Rongrong at the same time.
Leng Rongrong: “….”
They did have breakfast, but after so much of moving around, she was hungry. It was lunchtime anyways.
“What about getting some food delivered here?” Tang Luo picked up his phone and asked her.
“Food delivery to this place might not work out.” Leng Rongrong pulled out her phone and glanced at the potential delivery places nearby.
After searching for a long while, there were no restaurants ready to deliver to this isolated place.
Finally they managed to find one place, which was actually very far away from here, and the delivery time mentioned on the site was more than an one hour.
Tang Luo said, “Only one spicy hot pot restaurant delivers here. What about getting at least one portion to fill the stomach.”
“Or I can go out and have a look around to see if there are any restaurants or any families that can give us some food.”
“You are sure that the hot pot would still be edible when it reaches here?” Leng Rongrong frowned.
“Never mind, just order some things that would not become lumpy before they reach us. I will go out and check around. Tang Luo, you stay put with Mo Linyuan. If the Mo Family’s men arrive here, ask them to clean up this place here… wait, we don’t need to bother with anything, they can just do everything!”
Patting the dust off her clothes, Leng Rongrong rushed out of the house with the intention of establishing some friendship with the neighbours.
On the way here, she had spotted a house in the forest.
It was a deeply hidden house, yet she had managed to see it. That house was not very far from here.
After walking around for a quarter of an hour, Leng Rongrong finally saw a path full of pebbles, with wild flowers blooming on both sides.
She followed the flowery path and soon, the house greeted her eyes.
This house was much smaller than theirs, but it was exquisite with a large yard in the front. On the iron gate of the yard there were vines of roses tangled all over. Beautiful flowers bloomed in every corner.
A few petals flew in the air like beautiful dancers as a gust of wind passed by.
The iron gate was open, so Leng Rongrong walked straight in.
“Anyone here?” Leng Rongrong raised her voice and asked.
The yard was very pretty. Apart from the riot of flowers and a thick patch of grass, there was a rockery and a small brook in the yard. The yard was not really wide, but was quite deep. It took Leng Rongrong ages before she arrived at the doorstep.
Leng Rongrong suddenly ceased her steps and looked at the door.
It looked quite old-fashioned, and creaked open with a small boy stepping out.
Leng Rongrong was taken aback.
The boy was so cute!
Wait! Why did this child look so familiar?
His rosy, small face was chubby, and the eyes were as large as two grapes. The facial features of the boy were exquisite. He was definitely going to be a very attractive man when he grew up.
“Hi.” Leng Rongrong waved at him, greeting him happily.
“Mom, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for ages.” The boy, who looked to be five or six years old, was dressed in a grey sweater. He was gazing at Leng Rongrong happily.
Leng Rongrong felt her heart melt when she met his eyes.
Hold on, what? What did this child just call her?
Mom?
Leng Rongrong looked around subconsciously, but saw no one around. She frowned and pointed at herself.
“Are you talking to me?”
The cute boy nodded and his eyes sparkled. “Mom, come in.”
Leng Rongrong walked towards the boy skeptically. She entered the villa, which turned out to be extremely luxurious from the inside.
The enormous villa was really quiet and no one seemed to be around.
“Where are your parents?” Leng Rongrong asked as she took in her surroundings. She hadn’t taken his addressing her as ‘mom’ seriously.
In the enormous house, there were many ancient landscape paintings as well as numerous antique vases. The place had been designed in the classical style.
“I don’t have parents, I live here alone.”
The boy gestured towards himself with a chubby hand. “Mom… oh aunt, my name is Mo Nanyu, you can call me Yu.”
“Hi, Yu, I am Leng Rongrong.” Leng Rongrong looked at the villa again. The whole place looked so clean that the boy did not seem to be the only person who lived here.
But for some reason, the boy did not seem to be lying either.
