Chapter 961: What A Hideous Grin!

Before he stepped out of the place, he exclaimed, “Liu, it doesn’t really matter whether she comes or not. We have our mother and our fourth brother to help us!”

Ye Liu smiled but did not respond as he followed Ye Mo, with Li Wazi trailing behind.

Liu Ran gave his mother one last look. He rarely saw her now. He wanted to say something but eventually gave up. Then he left with his brothers-in-law.

He did not understand it. Why didn’t his mother agree at once?

Doesn’t Mom want to build a close relationship with Sis and her husbands?

This is a rare opportunity.

Liu Liushi felt conflicted as she watched them leave.

Ye Mo’s last words replayed in her mind. Who does he mean by fourth brother? Isn’t that Ling?

Mother?

Their parents died years ago, so who’s this mother he speaks of?

While the brothers were shopping for greens and meat, Liu Ran showed a total lack of interest, and this triggered Ye Mo’s temper.

He could not bear it anymore and turned to ask, “Kid, what’s that frown for?”

“Ran Er, tell us if there’s something wrong. Don’t hold it in,” Li Wazi said with concern.

“Ran Er, don’t think too much,” Ye Liu told him. “Whatever she decides, we have to respect her and go with it. We can’t force her.”

Liu Ran merely rolled his eyes at Ye Mo because he had once again disguised his concern by putting the blame on him. As for Li Wazi and Ye Liu, Liu Ran replied, “Brother Li, nothing’s wrong. I’ve just been thinking. Brother Liu’s right. I understand.”

Then he pulled a face to imitate a smile, but Ye Mo did not buy it. Instead, he retorted, “What a hideous grin!”

“Says the one with the resting bitch face!” Liu Ran fired back.

He used to be afraid of Ye Mo, but after living together for so long, that was no longer the case.

Ye Mo and Liu Duo might have used to butt heads before. Now, despite not being totally at her beck at call, at least he would let her take the lead.

After Liu Ran came to the family, the man and the boy butted heads instead. They would diss one another but neither truly held a vengeance.

“Kid, you’re asking for it, aren’t you? How dare you speak to me like that!” Ye Mo said, putting on a fierce, imposing stature.

“I wouldn’t dare.” Liu Ran pretended to be fearful of him, and that what he said did not reflect his reverence. “I didn’t say it’s you, why have you assumed so? But anyway, if the shoe fits...”

Liu Ran quickly ran to hide behind Ye Liu when the man made a move to hit him. Just like that, the boy had totally forgotten his sorrows.

Ye Liu laughed and shook his head as he observed their interaction.

Back home, Liu Ran went straight to Liu Duo to complain.

“Sis, Sis, Mo’s been bullying me. He hit me.”

“Hey, brat! Stop telling lies, or do you think I won’t really hit you?” Ye Mo frowned, seriously considering giving the boy a good beating.

Liu Duo’s gaze followed the voices when she heard the two dissing each other.

She smiled as she sided with her brother.”Ran Er, tell me what he did. I’ll even the playing field!”

Ye Mo got jealous. “Wife, I’m your husband, why are you siding with that kid?”

“Ran Er’s my only brother; of course I’ll help him! You may be my husband, but you’re not the only one,” Liu Duo retorted cheekily. With the others around, she had no reason to be afraid of Ye Mo!
