71: Is it possible that she is your stepmother?
Chapter 71: Is It Possible She's Your Stepmom?
It was at this moment that Han Yuyao finally arrived with her people, accompanied by a flurry of hurried footsteps.
Besides the three of them, several police officers were also present.
Trailing behind them was Mo Yong, the Head of the Mo Family, looking somewhat guilty.
Seeing his daughter still alive, he immediately let out a sigh of relief.
“Thank goodness, thank goodness.”
But when his gaze shifted to Xia He, whom Mo Linglong was holding, his expression instantly changed.
A memory of a playful, adorable, fair-skinned, beautiful girl next door flooded his mind.
Along with it came a pure and innocent youthful memory.
It was one of the few unforgettable times in his life.
Although she had now become a little girl.
The familiar feeling in her eyebrows and appearance, however, could not be erased.
This was not his daughter, but Xia He herself.
The person he had hidden in his memories.
But looking at Xia He and his precious eldest daughter now, it was clear they were about to fight.
Especially Mo Linglong, the hand holding Xia He was right on the edge of the rooftop.
It was as if just a gentle breeze, or a slip of her hand, would send Xia He soaring through the air, plummeting to her death.
Seeing this, Mo Yong immediately became anxious.
“Linglong, put her down first. Let’s talk this through properly.”
Seeing his father so nervous and concerned about this little girl.
Coupled with what that scumbag had said earlier.
Mo Linglong’s brows furrowed, and suspicion gradually began to rise in her heart.
She eyed her father suspiciously.
Then she looked at Xia He, who was still being held in her hand. At this moment, Mo Linglong’s eyes instantly changed, staring at her father with a strange look.
“Mo Wangjun, Mo Wangjun…”
Mo Linglong’s red lips parted slightly as she murmured the name twice, having already figured something out in her heart.
Then, Mo Linglong looked at her father with a face full of suspicion, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
Even though he still didn’t believe it, the undeniable truth was right before his eyes.
The strange looks between the two… to say there was no problem, even a ghost wouldn’t believe it.
“Dad, is this little girl your illegitimate daughter with another woman?”
“This…”
After all, he was in front of his daughter, and Mo Yong’s old face flushed red.
How could he bring up his youthful romantic escapades now?
Seeing her father’s hesitant demeanor, Mo Linglong had an increasingly bad premonition.
“Ahem, well, is there a possibility that this little girl is your stepmom?”
Huang Yu, who was standing by, enjoying the drama, chimed in.
His eyes were full of mockery.
After all, that old man had said he’d make him pay earlier, and now he finally had a chance for revenge.
Setting a fire in his backyard, while it wouldn’t cause any major problems, would certainly cause some significant damage.
Mo Linglong, already fuming, bristled even more at these words.
After glaring at him, her gaze turned even more furious towards her father.
She asked in disbelief, “Dad, is this true?”
“How can you do this to Mom?”
“Daughter, don’t listen to that kid’s nonsense. He just wants to sow discord between us!”
“And he dumped you before, have you forgotten?”
“That kid is a scoundrel, don’t listen to him.”
Mo Yong spoke evasively, his eyes flustered, refusing to answer directly.
He could only desperately try to shift the blame onto that scoundrel.
“You little bastard, what exactly happened? Explain yourself properly!”
At this point, Mo Yong didn’t know how to explain.
He could only desperately wink at the scoundrel, urging him to come out and explain.
But how could Huang Yu pay him any mind?
He simply turned his back, looked up at the starry sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if he hadn’t heard a word.
“You boy…”
“I’m asking you!”
Mo Linglong saw her father’s flustered and rambling appearance, and she instantly realized he was deliberately trying to change the subject.
She interrupted him with a sharp reprimand.
She hadn’t expected that her father, the Medicine Saint, whom she had always believed to be benevolent and dedicated to saving lives, would be such a person.
What was the difference between this and a beast in sheep’s clothing?
At this moment, Mo Linglong completely believed what Huang Yu had said.
Her father really had something going on with this seven or eight-year-old girl.
No!
Legally speaking, it should be that her father had molested this little girl.
“Old man, how can you lay your hands on such a young girl? Are you even human?”
“How can you do this to my mom?”
“How can you do this to the Mo Family?”
“From a young age, you taught me medical ethics, benevolence, and saving lives. Is this how you lead by example?”
“Such a young girl, and you can still lay your hands on her!”
“Why didn’t my mom ever realize how perverted you are?”
“Are you still a human being?”
“You’re even more of a scumbag than Huang Yu, that dead scumbag!”
“You’re all trash from the same bin! Bah!”
Seeing his daughter scolding him relentlessly for several minutes, Mo Yong dared not speak.
Mainly because he lacked confidence.
He still didn’t know that his daughter was unaware of the ‘high and low person syndrome’.
So, in his ears.
Everything his daughter said was true.
Although it was just a pure and innocent youthful memory.
But in other words, Mo Yong admitted that he did have a special kind of affection for Xia He.
Wasn’t this a form of emotional infidelity?
But from Mo Linglong’s perspective, her father was a beast in human skin, an animal who molested little girls.
Seeing Mo Yong being thoroughly berated, Xia He immediately became displeased.
Although she was still suspended in mid-air, unable to move, and could fall to her death at any moment.
Her words, however, showed no mercy.
“Shut up immediately!”
“How dare you speak to your father like that?”
“No matter what, he’s your elder. Do you have no respect for the order of seniority?”
“Did your father raise you for nothing?”
Xia He, held in mid-air by Mo Linglong, crossed her arms, looking like an old woman, which only made Mo Linglong even angrier.
“You little girl, why aren’t you in kindergarten, messing around with such an old man?”
“Are you seriously trying to be my stepmom?”
“I’m not a little girl, and who would want you as a daughter!”
Seeing the two bickering, Mo Yong instantly became nervous.
It had nothing to do with anything else.
Only because while the two women, one big and one small, were arguing.
Mo Linglong’s hand had already extended completely outside the rooftop, holding Xia He’s body suspended in the air.
One wrong move and she could fall.
“Linglong, quickly pull her back!”
“We are truly innocent, don’t listen to that little bastard’s nonsense!”
Mo Yong shouted.
At this moment, he was terrified that Xia He would fall, and even more terrified that his daughter would commit murder.
Han Yuyao couldn’t stand it anymore either and nudged Huang Yu, who was still pretending to gaze at the stars.
“There’s not a single star tonight, what are you looking at?”
“Hurry up and explain, didn’t you see Linglong’s hand is already outside the rooftop?”
“If someone really dies, and the serial murder case can’t be solved, I’m not done with you!!”
