C98 (1/2)
By this time, the sound of voices could be heard coming from inside the house. It was the old housekeeper and Johnny.
When they saw that the person who came wasn't JASON but Mo Zixiao, they were slightly stunned.
Mo Zixiao ignored their surprised gazes and said lightly, ”Help me prepare a clean room. I've been staying here for the past few days.”
”Yes.” The old housekeeper immediately ordered the maid, who was in a hurry, to tidy up the room and also ordered the cook to prepare supper.
Mo Zixiao walked to the sofa and sat down, taking off his gloves and scarf. As he took off his clothes, the old housekeeper immediately took them.
At this moment, there were servants who had already heated up the fire, and soon, a room full of cold was dispelled.
The old butler was afraid that something had happened to him, that he had suddenly come in the middle of the night. He whispered, ”Did something happen?”
He shook his head wearily and smiled bitterly. ”You know, I never liked being there. I have nowhere else to go. ”
The old butler immediately understood the knot in his heart. With a low sigh, he did not say anything else and instead went to hang up his clothes.
”Did JASON call you these days?” How many days has he been away? It's been five or six days? ” Mo Zixiao looked up and saw that without JASON, the house seemed more spacious and deserted.
”Yes.” Six days! I didn't get back from the phone either, but I heard from SUSAN that things were going well. He got along well with Miss Ye. The butler nodded.
”That's good. I hope he can finally start a new life. ” Mo Zixiao sighed.
”Isn't it? But the most important thing is that the relationship between you two brothers has finally returned to its former intimacy. Mi Wuya is the best! ” The old butler sighed with emotion.
”Yes.” I've let you worry about me during this period of time! ” Mo Zixiao said apologetically. The old butler was like a family member to them. Sometimes, he even felt that they were closer than when they were together.
Mo Guxuan seemed to completely treat him as a laborer. He was taking advantage of the situation, but the old steward cared about him as if he were his grandson.
”I'm going upstairs to check on the bedroom.” The old steward's eyes moistened, and he changed the subject.
”Alright.” He nodded and stood up, going to the wine cabinet to pour wine.
Pouring a Black Square, she walked to the window and looked at the building not far away, which was barely visible in the darkness. There was no light at all, and she bitterly thought to herself that with the company of SUSAN tonight, she would probably no longer feel lonely. Lonely?
He remembered that every time he came back, he would always see a light on in the bedroom, a dim light illuminating the direction he was heading in, making his heart shine even more brightly and warmly.
Later, she would leave the light on for him, and they would be as close as ever. Is it secret?
Hehe? How is this possible? Why did he have to dream such extravagant dreams?
Now, it was real. The mask had been torn off, and even if she did as she had done before, how could the ice he had formed in his heart ever have heat enough to let it melt?
”Young Master Mo, the supper is ready. Please come and sit down to eat!” The maid's voice came from behind him.
He waved his hand wearily.
The maid quietly retreated.
He stood there for a while longer until his neck felt stiff. Then, he turned around and saw the old butler standing behind him, looking at him worriedly.
He smiled and asked, ”Is the bedroom ready?”
”You have changed into a brand-new bed and a new bed. You will smell the sun when you sleep. I hope it will make your sleep more comfortable and your mood better.” the old butler said eagerly.
”Definitely. It's getting late and I'm going to bed. You should get some rest as well! ” Warmth filled his heart. He walked to the bar and took the Black Cube that he had opened just now. He turned around and headed upstairs.
The old butler hurriedly called out, ”The midnight snack is already prepared. Don't you want to eat some before you go?”
”I'm not hungry.” He went upstairs without looking back. He pushed the door open and went in, then closed the door behind him.
The old steward sighed. Looking at the steaming, delicious midnight snack, he felt extremely regretful. He then told Johnny to carry the dish over and not waste any of the delicacies.
Mo Zixiao came every night and left as soon as the sun rose. Xia Xinxin had no idea he came at all.
Even though SUSAN learned about it from the maid, she didn't dare tell her about it because she didn't want to think too much about it.
If she found out about it, she would be depressed again.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and soon a week had passed.
That afternoon, after training, Xia Xinxin and SUSAN went to take a shower and then, as usual, sat together to play Go. This was a game they had been playing for the past few days.
The two of them were both half-witted, lacking in chess skills, and they often regretted their decisions. Sometimes, they would even start a fight over the wrong chess piece, or they would even start a fight to resolve the situation, making it very lively. Although the two of them were pitiful people who were waiting for someone else to judge them, this method of playing in the midst of hardship allowed them to patiently wait for something.
This time, the two of them had a fight. Naturally, they fought again. Of course, Xia Xinxin couldn't beat her, so she had to flee. While she ran, she grabbed the back of the sofa and flung it at the SUSAN.
SUSAN did not show any weakness, also grabbed the pillow counterattack, for a moment, the room full of pillows flying, very lively.
Only when Xia Xinxin accidentally used too much force did the pillow fly towards the door. Coincidentally, the door opened and the pillow slammed onto the head of the incoming person.
