  Latest chapter please go to ( )

  Mo Xiao was really too tired last night, and fell asleep as soon as he lay down. In his dream, he dreamed that he and Fang Li were sitting on the grass together, with himself talking beside her, while Fang Li kept watching Jun Li play basketball.

  Two people were clearly very close, but how could Fang Li not hear himself speaking and couldn't grab Fang Li's hand. Fang Li kept looking at Jun Li, that kind of happiness was something he had never seen before. Mo Xiao desperately grabbed, but only the air was spinning around.

  Mo Xiao woke up from the nightmare, touching the sweat on his forehead to know it was just a dream. But what exactly happened between Fang Li and Jun Lei? One is his most beloved person, the other is his best brother, hoping it's not what he thought!

  "Mo Xiao, get up quickly! Come try on this suit and see how it looks!"

  "Mom, why wear a suit? It's just dinner, right?" Mo Xiao rubbed his hair and got up from the floor, casually picking up a T-shirt to put on.

  "Your dad likes it when you dress up formally. Hmm, this one isn't that great, wear this one instead!"

  "Is that really all? But mom, when did I ever have a suit?" Mo Xiao was still sleepy and had obvious dark circles under her eyes.

  "Oh, I had it specially made for you. Do you still like it?" Mo Xiao's mother was indeed a professional dancer, and her elegance was evident at all times and in any place. "I don't like it, I don't like wearing this kind of clothes, it feels like being tied up with ropes and it makes me look old, I can barely smile."

  "Mo Xiao, good boy, wearing a handsome suit makes you look more like a man. This is the most handsome son in your mother's eyes, come and try it on quickly." Mo Xiao's mother seems to be so fond of Mo Xiao, but how can she push her own son to the edge of suffering?

  Mo Xiao extremely disliked putting his clothes on carelessly, with a face full of disdain.

  Mo Xiao's mother was still delighted to say, "Look, my son is so handsome, in the future he will definitely bring back a beautiful and virtuous daughter-in-law for mom." Mo Xiao's mother had a happy smile all over her face.

  "What kind of tie should I wear? How about this dark gray striped one?" Mo Xiao's mom picked up the tie and compared it, "Not very good-looking, it makes my son look old-fashioned. This one, yes, that's the one."

  "Do I have to wear a suit and tie?" Mo Xiao's face was unhappy, he hated it so much that he wanted to immediately pull off the tie his mom had tied for him.

  "What's wrong, baby? Just wear it once for mom, okay?" Mo Xiao's mother said in a gentle tone, and Mo Xiao couldn't refuse anymore.

  Sometimes Mo Xiao always feels puzzled. Mom is a loving child, has temperament, and pays attention to life adjustments. How can she marry Dad, who is as cold as ice?

  "Alright, who made mom happy?" Mo Xiao hugged her mother's neck and sent her out the door. Although Mo Xiao didn't like dressing up to eat, she also had to make her mother happy occasionally!

  At noon, Dad drove back to pick up Mo Xiao and Mom. Mo Xiao realized that today was not just a simple meal or an ordinary accompaniment to see clients with Dad.

  Mo Xiao felt a strange feeling in his heart, like a derailed train rushing towards the abyss.

  Four people sat in the car as the temperature in the air rose rapidly, Mo Xiao unconsciously pulled open his collar to catch a breath, and his head kept glancing out of the window.

  There are some small insects that will recklessly crash into the windshield. Mo Xiao feels they are just like himself, possibly also unaware of when sudden threats would make the things he cares about disappear in an instant.

  "Tie your tie properly, what are you thinking now!" Mo Dao-yuan rebuked loudly.

  "Don't be angry, the weather is fine, you're not used to wearing a suit, come let mom tie it for you." Mo Xiao's mother tied the tie around his neck with a kind face, although it was gentle, Mo Xiao still felt an invisible lock tightening around him.

  "What's wrong with Xiāoér? Where are you? Speak quickly, we'll go find you." Xīzi's change in tone made ān Jūnlí realize that something had happened.

  "Hey, what's wrong?" An Junli asked anxiously after taking the phone.

  Every little man, when experiencing family changes, will be heartbroken like a child. Because no matter how grown up or great a person is, in a home, he is always a child, and he really needs this home.

  An Junli and Xi Que arrived, Su Qi'er was crouching in a corner, sobbing, with a dog beside him tearing at his shoelaces.

  Xi Ya stepped back, shooing away the dog with a wave of his hand, and called out softly, "Ji Er, is that you?" Xi Ya's voice was truly soft, for no one dared to startle a fragile heart.

  An Jun squatted beside Su Qi'er and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "Qi'er, we're still here. You're not alone in enduring all this."

  The beggar boy lifted his head and lay on An Junli's shoulder, wailing loudly. Zhang Dage's mouth was filled with tears as he bit into An Junli's clothes. Even if it was just for an instant, An Junli and Xi Zhuo also saw the festering wounds on Su Qi'er's face, the bloodshot eyes, the large bruises on her hands, and the dark bloodstains on her clothes.

  Although An Junli and Xi Zai have also experienced pain, at this moment, they really don't know how to comfort Su Qi'er.

  Nothing else matters compared to these things. If comfort can be of use, then what other thing in this world can cause people harm.

  Ten minutes later, Mo Xiao and his parents got off the car. After walking a long way, they finally stopped in front of the innermost private room.

  "Ah, finally you've arrived. You must be Mr. Mo, right? I only caught a glimpse of you last time, but now that I see you again, you're indeed a talented young man!" The sudden praise from Yue Tianlin made Mo Xiao feel very uncomfortable, to the point of disgust.

  "Uncle, Auntie are fine." Mo Xiao was startled by the familiar voice and raised his head to find Yue Yue also there. Mo Xiao didn't know what his father was up to, but he knew it couldn't be anything good.

  After sitting down, Yue Tianlin continued to praise Mo Xiao for being young and promising. In the end, he turned back to pat his father's horse, saying that a good son must have a good father, and a tiger father will not have a dog son.

  In the end, one's own moral praise ultimately boils down to having a rich and powerful dad.

  "Does Young Master Mo know what type of girl he likes?" Yue Tianlin deliberately put on a smiling face, making Mo Xiao feel like vomiting.

  But before Mo Xiao could answer, her mother took over, "Of course, I like someone like Yueyue who is gentle, generous and knows what's important."

  Mo Xiao looked at her mother with an unclear expression. If this were a normal family, Mo Xiao would have thought it was just a casual remark. But coming from her own father and mother, there must be some ulterior motive behind it. And given their family's status, her father would never stoop to fawning over his in-laws.
