Chapter 517: No Strategy Left Unturned (1)_1
Upon learning that Mother and daughter of Mo Wu clan had been taken away by Mo Yan, Mo Hong’s family was so angry that she banged on basins and smashed bowls, sitting at the front door cursing everyone and everything throughout the entire afternoon.
Mo Yongxi was even more indignant, constantly cursing the mother and daughter of the Mo Wu clan, it was unclear whether this was out of anger, jealousy, or perhaps a mix of both. The other members of Lao Mo’s House harbored their own thoughts, silently saying nothing.
Only Mo Yonglu, who hadn’t gone into the city to work that day, couldn’t bear to listen anymore. Ignoring the sweltering midday heat, he shouldered a hoe and went off to the fields. Before leaving, he looked at Mo Yongfu, who was standing under the eaves in silent sulkiness, with a face full of disappointment, "I always thought that Big Brother was just a bit dull and not very worldly, but that you were good to your wife and children. It’s only now that I realize you’re not just dull—you don’t have a heart at all! You’ll regret this, one day, you’ll regret having driven Big Sister and Dani out of the house!"
After saying this, he gave his pale-faced elder brother a look of pity and walked away without turning back.
This family was no longer the family it used to be, or perhaps it always had been, and it was he who had failed to see through it all along. This family had rotted to the core, with no hope in sight. Maybe one day, this family wouldn’t even have room for him, or perhaps, he would leave on his own...
Mo Yongfu leaned on the wall as if he had been drained, slowly sliding to the ground, his eyes unfocused, staring into an unknown void. All of a sudden, a frail figure appeared in front of him, walking away with her back to him. He hastily reached out, wanting to pull her back, but the figure vanished abruptly, with only a gentle breeze passing through his fingertips, leaving no trace.
