Chapter 128 – Delivering soup (5)
“Come on, let’s go eat . ” Li Hua hastily pushed the three people towards the kitchen, then he went to the western hut and informed his oldest brother of this matter .
Li Mo’s expression wasn’t good . “Fourth brother, you can go eat . I’ll handle this matter . ”
“En . ” Li Hua knew that only his oldest brother had the right to interfere in his second brother’s problem .
Li Mo rubbed his hands together and went outside too . He came to the eastern hut and saw that Mudan was putting the bowl away . After that, she stayed leaning by the cabinet and kept wiping her tears with her handkerchief . Her crumpled expression looked quite pitiful .
AdvertisementLi Mo did his best to make his voice softer as he said, “Mudan ah . ”
“Older brother Mo . ” Mudan didn’t turn her head . Instead, she used her handkerchief to vigorously wipe away her tears as if she was afraid of embarrassing herself by crying in front of someone .
Li Mo lightly sighed and continued, “Never mind . Don’t come looking for Li Yan in the future . ”
“Older brother Mo?” Mudan turned her head to look at Li Mo in surprise .
Although Li Mo’s tone was gentle, his gaze was still sharp . “You know that my family already has a wife . Moreover, you’re already engaged too . If you keep acting like this, it won’t be good for either of you . ”
Tears immediately welled up and fell from Mudan’s eyes . “I know that . Older brother Mo, you know that I’ve liked older brother Li Yan since we were children . Besides, my dad has relented . As long as we can gather up twenty silver taels, he’ll agree for me to marry older brother Li Yan . ”
“The problem isn’t about money . ” Although Li Mo felt it was somewhat cruel to shatter a girl’s dream, he had to do it . “Mudan, I’ve seen how you’ve felt about my second brother all these years . If my second brother had the slightest amount of feelings for you, as his oldest brother, I would be willing to sacrifice everything to help him . ”
His words were straightforwardly clear . Li Yan wasn’t interested in her at all .
Mudan seemed as if she couldn’t accept this . Her body suddenly weakened, and she leaned on the cabinet for support . She lightly shook her head and said, “No, I do have a place in older brother Li’s heart . He saved my life . He…”
“Back then, he just happened to pass by and see that you were drowning . Under that type of circumstance, no one would just stand by and do nothing . Besides, he’s been good friends with your older brother since we were children . He only sees you as a younger sister,” said Li Mo .
Mudan suddenly mustered up her courage and loudly interrupted him, “No, it’s not like that . He clearly likes me . ”
Li Mo tightly pursed his lips together and stared at her with a steely gaze .
Mudan suddenly seemed as if someone had taken away her soul . She didn’t have the strength to keep standing . “Older brother Mo…”
“Enough, go home,” Li Mo slowly said, “Don’t come looking for Li Yan in the future . ”
Mudan was leaning against the cabinet . She hid her face with her sleeve as she sobbed like a songbird .
Finished speaking, Li Mo turned to leave the hut .
Li Yan was standing at the doorway . “Oldest brother . ”
Li Mo looked at him . “Go eat breakfast . ”
“En . ” Li Yan stopped looking at the crying person in the hut and directly followed his oldest brother to the kitchen .
Mudan was left alone and ignored in the eastern hut . After she had aggrievedly cried for a while by herself, she finished packing up the bowl in the small basket and left with it .
