Chapter 45: Dreamer (Part ?) (2/2)
Transporting the luggage to the living room was extremely difficult, but they were able to prevent the AI housekeeper from turning on the lights. The older cousin sister and little cousin brother sat on the sofa panting for breath.
Mo Ya1, Luo Nan’s older female cousin, had a nice figure to the point of exploding. This characteristic beauty was usually dressed neutrally and had, very fortunately, inherited the handsome appearance of her father. She was unlike her mother, who had a very average appearance. And her height was nearly 180 centimeters due to a genetic mutation. She was currently the tallest person in the household.
She was dressed in denim right now and had her legs crossed, but those jeans were ripped in the knees to form flat and smooth triangles. The fine and powerful contours of her body were prominently displayed from beneath her jeans. It was enough to make over 70% of females shriek at how handsome she was and have them cry to the ground in envy.
Luo Nan really was paralyzed on the sofa. Even moving a finger would cause him to feel tired: “I’ve paid you back a favor…..”
Mo Ya looked at him with a frown: “Too weak. You didn’t just eat drugs to survive for this month right?”
“How is that possible. My calorie intake for a single day is about the same as your calorie intake for a month.”
“So how are you so weak even after sleeping for an entire day?”
“I slept around 10 PM last night……”
“You still think that was yesterday? You went to sleep the day before yesterday alright? You were sleeping on the car just like a dead dog. It was me and Mo Peng2 who painstakingly lifted you upstairs. And after not seeing you wake up at all, your ‘mother’ called the doctors…..”
Luo Nan raised his wrist to look at the date displayed on his wristband: September 30th!
He was left speechless for a time. He guessed that his drug withdrawal had some element in this, as well as his two days of working around the clock.
He switched topics, not wishing to be tangled up in this issue: “Why are you running away from home in the middle of the night?”
Mo Ya cried: “Running away!? I’m just going to do a road show at Man City. The time period is just a bit longer than usual is all.”
Man City was a satellite town to Xia City and was located 400 kilometers away from downtown. It was a city that borderlined the wilderness.
Luo Nan’s eyebrows furrowed hearing this: “For how many days?”
“For a month. There’s this music festival I need to take part in.”
“Aunty will kill you……”
“She’ll be too exhausted by the time I get back.”
Mo Ya turned up her nose when faced with this kind of threat. And, she didn’t let Luo Nan change topics that easily:
“Hey. Did you give up over there? Is that why you suddenly came home?”
Mo Ya was clearly talking about the matter of Luo Nan’s drug concoctions. Only she out of the entire family had a general idea of what Luo Nan had been up to for the past few years.
Luo Nan thought about it and laughed: “Nope. Now’s the resting stage.”
“It’s fine as long as you know what you’re doing.”
Mo Ya stood up, walked towards Luo Nan, and rubbed his head: “Excellent. This little fellow has calmed down quite a bit…… Anyway, that's enough pretending. My ride is here. Carry luggage for the future goddess!”
Luo Nan groaned, but in the end, he was unable to resist Mo Ya’s emphatic words. He lifted the luggage once again and made his way out sneakingly.
As soon as he exited the house, he saw the jet-black old-fashioned van parked right outside the front yard. There were even people waving. Though the skies were dark, Luo Nan had already confirmed that those were the members of Mo Ya’s band.
These people…...
The luggage was stuffed with great difficulty into the car that was already filled with people and instruments, leaving Mo Ya only able to sit on her own suitcase.
But Mo Ya cared not the slightest about this. She gave Luo Nan a hug quite refreshingly:
“Then do your best little bro. You’re doing good.”
“Do your best too….. Miss Goddess.”
The lights of the old-fashioned van lit up and the van slowly left the community. Luo Nan watched Mo Ya go, watched Mo Ya continuing to work hard for her dreams.
As for himself, he will have to work hard as well!
1. Mo Ya (莫雅, literally Elegant Mo). Mo is a surname; I had a brain fart in the beginning of the series and just believed that Moya was her first name.... I'll fix the rest of the chapters during the weekend.
2. Mo Peng (莫鹏, literally Roc Mo). I believe that this was the first time that this character was mentioned.
