Mo Yu carefully supported Fang Liu through the door without acknowledging Mo Tao and Li Li.
Mo Tao and Li Li stood awkwardly in the living room. After exchanging looks, Li Li walked forward and brazenly stopped Mo Yu, who was about to go upstairs.
“Mo Yu, we’re here to talk about your cousin, Mo Wei.”
When Mo Yu heard this, his expression immediately changed. “I don’t have a cousin.” The scorn in his tone was apparent. “I will not consider someone who was caught going to a brothel to be a cousin of mine.”
‘How could a despicable person like Mo Wei be my cousin?’
Mo Tao gritted his teeth when he heard this.
Mo Wei was bedridden in a hospital for five to six days. When Mo Wei woke up, he told his parents about what had happened.
Mo Tao and Li Li found out that their son had not been arrested for hiring prostitutes, but instead, he tried to rape Fang Liu and was seriously injured after being beaten up by Mo Yu, who had suddenly woken up from his coma.
It would be shameful to their family if Mo Wei were arrested for hiring prostitutes. However, if news of him attempting to rape his sister-in-law were to get out, Mo Wei would be disowned by the Mo family. Grandfather Mo would undoubtedly punish Mo Tao and his family.
After this incident, Mo Wei had lost his job, and his family became a laughingstock in the Mo Corporation.
Mo Tao and Li Li had come over to the Mo family home to beg Mo Yu to give their son his job back. “Mo Wei is still young and naive—” Li Li hurriedly explained.
However, she was impatiently interrupted by Mo Yu. “Young? If I recall, Mo Wei is four years older than me, and he’s already in his thirties this year, yet he can still do such embarrassing and despicable things? I’ve tolerated him long enough and even helped you hide it from Grandfather Mo.”
“Don’t push your luck. Instead of coming to me, you should go home and reflect on how you raised your son. You were the ones who taught him to behave so shamelessly.”
Mo Yu did not hold his thoughts back. In the past, Mo Yu did not care too much about what Mo Tao’s family did to him, and he simply treated them as annoying fools. He never complained in front of Grandfather Mo because he was concerned about the old man’s health, and he didn’t want Grandfather Mo to worry about such trivial matters.
But now, Mo Wei had violated Fang Liu, which had thoroughly angered Mo Yu. Mo Yu was now the head of the Mo family and held a lot of power. He was also in the right in this matter, so naturally, he would not take too kindly to Mo Tao and his family.
“How dare you?! How could you speak to us like that? We’re a family, and we shall rise and fall together. What good will it do if you give up on us? If word gets out, it will tarnish your reputation as well. You only recently got promoted, yet you have already fired your cousin. If the others didn’t know any better, they would think that you’re trying to kill Mo Wei.” Mo Tao couldn’t take Mo Yu’s scrutiny anymore, and his tone became stern and vicious.
“Family, huh? Mo Wei is a despicable person, so why should I continue to treat him as a family member? If it weren’t for Grandfather Mo’s sake, I would have kicked your son out of the Mo family long ago. You’re drunk and can’t even speak clearly, Mo Tao. Guards, take these people away. Come see me once you’ve sobered up!”
Mo Yu sneered as he gave the order. About five burly men dressed in black suits walked over and surrounded Mo Tao and Li Li.
Mo Tao and Li Li were so angry that their faces turned red. Their eyes were bloodshot as they glared at Mo Yu. However, they didn’t dare to move due to the bodyguards surrounding them. In the end, they could only curse fiercely, “We’ll see about that!” Then, they left in a sorry state
After Mo Tao and his wife left, Fang Liu gazed at Mo Yu with worry. “Is that really such a good idea? They are your family, after all. Do you think they will try to take revenge on you?”
Mo Yu ran his fingers through Fang Liu’s hair, and his expression immediately became gentle. He said calmly, “Even if I gave Mo Wei his job back, they still wouldn’t be grateful to me. As for revenge, I’m not concerned about that. The situation at the Mo Corporation was caused by Mo Tao and his family stirring up problems everywhere. I’ve tolerated them long enough. It’s about time I settle my scores with them.”
When Fang Liu saw that Mo Yu had already made up his mind, she didn’t question him. She simply told him to be more careful.
Meanwhile, a maid came over to tell them that Chu Hao had arrived at the Mo family home.
When Chu Hao settled his matters and heard that Mo Yu had finally woken up, he took the next flight home. As soon as the plane landed, he immediately rushed to the Mo family home.
Fang Liu thought that this sense of brotherhood was genuinely heart-warming.
However, Mo Yu did not seem too happy about it. Instead, he felt annoyed when he saw Chu Hao.. “Didn’t I tell you that I’m okay? It’s already late. Why did you have to come barging in at this hour?”
