Novel Full Chapter 265
Chapter 265 – Scary Grandpa
Mo Fei and Mo Xiaojuan both understood English, so they were also carefully listening to the meaning of the lyrics. However, Mo Xiaojuan hasn’t watched the story of “Frozen,” so she was a little confused by the appearance of words like “kingdom” and “queen” in the lyrics.
Just as “Let it go” was being sung in full swing, suddenly a sound mixed in. Although it was not loud, it clearly disrupted the rhythm. Yang Yi stopped and looked towards the source of the sound.
Mo Xiaojuan reacted a half a beat slower, frantically rummaging through the bag beside her for her phone. However, what she pulled out was not her own phone but Mo Fei’s. She usually carried Mo Fei’s phone, but she was too busy celebrating Mo Fei’s birthday today and forgot to return it to her.
Mo Xiaojuan glanced at the incoming call reminder on the phone and was so scared that she quickly jumped up from the sofa, “Sister, it’s a call from Uncle!”
Uncle?
So, it was Mo Fei’s father?
Mo Fei quickly took the phone and raised a finger to signal Yang Yi and the others to be quiet, then turned around and held the phone as she walked into the bedroom. She answered the call only after closing the door.
Yang Yi was somewhat puzzled. He didn’t immediately understand why Mo Fei had to hide to answer her father’s call?
Fortunately, Mo Xiaojuan quietly explained to Yang Yi on behalf of Mo Fei, “Shh, brother-in-law, don’t speak loudly. It’s a call from my sister’s father in the United States.”
“Grandpa!” Xixi’s eyes lit up, and she happily called out, but she also remembered her mother’s reminder and sheepishly stuck out her little tongue. She pulled her father’s hand, motioning for him to lower his head.
Yang Yi lowered his head, and the little girl leaned in close to her father’s ear, exhaling a sweet, cake-like scent, and said, “Grandpa is fierce and doesn’t like Papa. Mama said not to tell Grandpa because Grandpa will hit Papa!”
“Why?” Yang Yi was quite surprised, he hadn’t thought that much.
“Hehe, why? Brother-in-law, don’t you know yet?” Mo Xiaojuan overheard Xixi and Yang Yi’s whispers and couldn’t help but sarcastically comment, “You got my sister pregnant. On the day she went back to the United States, Uncle was so angry that he smashed the cabinet, grabbed his gun, and wanted to cross the ocean to kill you!”
“Fortunately, my sister stopped him, and things calmed down a bit after Xixi was born.” Mo Xiaojuan snorted, “But you don’t know that after my sister returned to China, Uncle has been asking me if she came back to find you. At first, he asked quite frequently, probably still wanting to kill you!”
When Mo Xiaojuan said this, her tone was a bit like before, sarcastic and gloating. She was probably venting her previous resentment towards Yang Yi and secretly enjoying it in her heart…
Xixi also nodded repeatedly, whispering in agreement, “Grandpa really likes Xixi and Mama, but he can still be fierce! Papa, don’t let Grandpa find out.”
Listening to Mo Xiaojuan and Xixi’s back-and-forth, Yang Yi fell silent, feeling somewhat helpless in the face of this situation.
Who could be blamed? It seemed like nobody could be blamed; the only thing to blame was that night in the maple forest. Who would have known why it was so accurate, hitting the mark in one shot…
But that one night couldn’t be blamed either. Without that night, there wouldn’t have been lovely Xixi…
At this moment, Mo Fei came out, her eyes filled with apology as she gestured to Yang Yi. Then she covered her phone and said to Xixi, “Grandpa wants to talk to you on the phone…”
“Don’t tell Grandpa that we’re at your Papa’s place!” Mo Fei lowered her voice and gave some instructions to her daughter’s ear before handing her the phone, letting her answer the call in the bedroom while Mo Fei stayed there with her.
At this moment, only Yang Yi and Mo Xiaojuan were left looking at each other in the living room, and the atmosphere became awkward…
There was a rustling sound. Yang Yi turned his head and saw the three kittens in the house playing with the empty gift box on the floor.
When they saw the box, they lost interest in the colorful ribbons. The slightly larger Xiao Hui tried to squeeze into a gift box belonging to Guo Ziyi. The box was a bit small, but he still managed to wiggle one foot at a time inside, and then crouched down, leaving only a round head sticking out.
“Ahem, brother-in-law!” Mo Xiaojuan took the initiative to start a conversation, bringing Yang Yi back to his senses. “Your singing, it’s amazing! You have a good voice and can write songs. Why don’t you debut as an artist? Become the first artist signed to my sister’s studio!”
Mo Xiaojuan said it somewhat jokingly, but she was also right. If Yang Yi signed now, he would still be ahead of Mo Fei. And how wonderful would it be to have a husband-and-wife duo in the entertainment industry?
However, Yang Yi shook his head decisively. “No, I’ll pass. I’m not interested. Writing songs for Mo Fei and occasionally playing around is enough for me!”
“Uh, okay…” Mo Xiaojuan’s voice fell, and the atmosphere became awkward again.
Fortunately, Xixi and Grandpa didn’t talk for too long, and Mo Fei came out with the little girl.
Xixi jumped happily and ran over to her dad to report the good news. “Papa, Papa, Grandpa didn’t find out. Don’t be afraid.”
Yang Yi was comforted by the little girl holding his hand, and he was somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Mo Fei put her phone aside, walked over and gently explained to Yang Yi, “I’m sorry, it was my father and mother just now. They called me because it’s my birthday, and…”
“Sister, I’ve already told him all of this. I said that Uncle wants to bring his gun to cause trouble to brother-in-law,” Mo Xiaojuan exclaimed.
Mo Fei was taken aback for a moment and looked at Yang Yi. “It’s not as exaggerated as Xiaojuan said, but he does have some complaints about you. Although we’re together now, I haven’t figured out how to tell them.”
Mainly because Mo Fei was also somewhat afraid of her father’s explosive temper. She was afraid he would scold Yang Yi to the point where he couldn’t handle it. Although Yang Yi had a gentle personality, Mo Fei still knew deep down inside, he actually had a sense of pride. If he couldn’t help but have a conflict with her father and they really fought, Mo Fei would feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing Mo Fei’s nervous and worried expression, Yang Yi couldn’t help but feel pity. He stood up, hugged her in his arms, and comforted her, “It’s okay, take your time. I’m not in a hurry.”
He gently lifted Mo Fei’s face with his finger and looked at her playfully, “And even if he finds out, it doesn’t matter. If your father is still angry with me, I’ll let him beat me up. Anyway, I have a thick skin and tough flesh. I promise not to fight back. Who made me make his precious daughter have big belly?”
Mo Fei’s face turned red, and she scolded, “It’s not that scary! Later, when Xixi was born, he was actually very happy. Let me handle it slowly and gradually make him accept you. Why do you have to resort to fighting? You men and your bad tempers!” .
With Xixi watching by the side, Mo Fei was too embarrassed to let Yang Yi hold her for too long and quickly pushed him away.
“Papa hasn’t finished singing yet!” Xixi was still thinking about “Let It Go,” and she struggled to bring the guitar over.
“Shall I continue singing?” Yang Yi asked with a smile.
“Wait, I have to go.” Mo Xiaojuan looked at her watch and yawned, “It’s almost ten o’clock. If I don’t go back now, I won’t be able to get up tomorrow.”
“Why don’t you stay here tonight, Xiaojuan? We have plenty of rooms anyway,” Mo Fei said with concern. “It’s dangerous to go back so late.”
“Sister, I’ve had enough for today,” Mo Xiaojuan said softly. “Besides, if I stay, it won’t be convenient for you and brother-in-law to do anything. Ahem, I better leave. It’s not too late, and I have a car!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Mo Fei refused to admit it and scolded with a red face.
“I won’t say anything anymore, I’m leaving, I’m leaving!” Mo Xiaojuan picked up her bag, said goodbye to Yang Yi and Xixi, and hurriedly went downstairs.
“Then I’ll take you downstairs… Xiaojuan, be careful when driving at night…” Mo Fei said as she walked.
“I know!” Mo Xiaojuan’s voice also came from the staircase, “But hehehe, it’s you and brother-in-law who should be careful while driving at night, right?”
“…”
