This Time, the Child Wins

Upon hearing Mo Xuan's words, Old Madam Luo did not get angry; instead, she smiled and said, "In terms of ability, although Shiya is younger than Luo Tian, she is more outstanding than him. Muqi has a playful nature, but when she gets serious, she is not far behind Shiya and is also a renowned designer. If it weren't absolutely necessary, why would I ever consider giving them up?"

"Or are you recalling something?"

Mo Xuan, upon hearing this, felt a bit confused. For some reason, his first reaction was that Old Madam Luo was worried about Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi threatening Luo Tian.

This feeling was familiar, as if he had known something in the past, but he couldn't recall it no matter how hard he tried.

Seeing his puzzled expression, Old Madam Luo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he couldn't remember, then perhaps it was better for him not to.

"Think about it, Xiao Mo. I've entrusted my two most cherished granddaughters to you," Old Madam Luo slowly stood up. "In fact, I hope you stay. Even if your relationship with Shiya and Muqi is exposed, the Luo family won't mind. The sisters won't either, and your talents are rare."

"At your age, achieving academic success like yours is truly a rare occurrence. To put it selfishly, it's better to have such a promising talent in the family than to let you go to someone else's."

"However, I think you might eventually leave the Capital. I know you well enough—you're easygoing and not particularly ambitious. As for those two troublemakers... heh, don't underestimate your importance to them."

In truth, Old Madam Luo didn't reveal everything. Leaving the Capital with Mo Xuan would be beneficial for this family of five.

Mo Xuan was Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi's Achilles' heel. Currently, everything was peaceful and fine. But if anything happened to Mo Xuan, their granddaughters might very well turn the entire Capital upside down!

Originally, Luo Muqi marrying Mo Xuan, with Luo Wei'er under her name, was the perfect solution. For a family of the Luo's status, matching social standings didn't matter as much as having good character.

Old Madam Luo didn't choose Luo Shiya because she hoped Luo Tian could take over as chairman in the future, with Luo Shiya serving as president.

But Luo Shiya's single sentence made Old Madam Luo give up on the idea entirely:

"Grandma, if you don't want me to completely destroy Luo Corporation, then do as you see fit."

Luo Shiya's moment of madness shocked even Old Madam Luo, who had seen many big scenes. She was certain Luo Shiya had the capability and the determination to do it!

A single Mo Xuan could calm the sisters, so Old Madam Luo naturally accepted the situation. The mere thought of Mo Xuan dating Su Yanran had made her shudder.

The sisters had been enduring for so long just to ensure their parents would no longer interfere. All their efforts were to convey one message: as long as Mo Xuan was by their side, they were content.

In the Capital, Mo Xuan was at risk. His original family, the wealthy families coveting Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi, and even those jealous of Mo Xuan's talents could all pose threats.

Rather than letting them live in turmoil, it was better to give them a stable life for the rest of their days. Luo Tian, though not as capable as Luo Shiya, was still highly competent. The family also had two sons and a daughter, any of whom could take over the reins of the Luo family in the future.

If they didn't leave, everything would remain the same, and the Luo family would protect Mo Xuan with all their might.

After all, it was the Luo family's debt to the sisters...

Mo Xuan remained silent for a long time. In fact, he also wanted to leave the Capital, just like Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi. Although he had dedicated a lot of effort to his studies and was indeed gifted, after experiencing betrayals in family, love, and friendship, Mo Xuan had come to see many things more clearly.

"I'll follow their wishes," Mo Xuan slowly said. "As long as they are willing, I will stay by their and the children's sides, whether we stay or go."

Old Madam Luo looked at Mo Xuan and sighed softly, saying no more...

After dinner at the old mansion, Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi got into their car, while the two little ones followed Mo Xuan into his.

They could have met Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi's parents at the old mansion, but they were abroad and couldn't return for the time being.

Upon returning to the estate, Mo Xuan was pulled by the two little ones to play with them, which he was more than happy to do.

"Daddy, Wei'er wants sweet tea!"

"Daddy, Xue'er wants some too!"

Since Mo Xuan knew how to cook and had learned to make pear tea from his grandmother, the girls sometimes pestered him to make it for them after having it once.

"Alright, I'll make some," Mo Xuan replied, always obliging to his daughters' requests. "Shiya, Muqi, do you want some?"

"Sure."

"Brother, mine should have more honey!"

Mo Xuan nodded in agreement, turned, and headed into the kitchen. Luo Shiya glanced at her sister and smirked slightly: "Muqi, let's call it an early night today."

Luo Muqi raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but chuckle: "Sister, let's see who gets to rest first, shall we?"

Luo Wei'er and Luo Xue'er looked left and right, then exchanged glances. The two little ones slid off the sofa and hurried to find their dad.

Otherwise, it would get colder soon, and the babies were afraid of the cold!

"Daddy, Daddy!"

Seeing Mo Xuan cutting pears, the two little ones hugged his legs from either side. Mo Xuan quickly put down the knife, bent down, and soothed the children: "Be good, my darlings. Don't run around the kitchen. Daddy will finish soon."

"Want to be with Daddy," Luo Wei'er said in a sweet, childish voice, while Luo Xue'er nodded her little head like a chick pecking at rice.

The mothers and aunties were too cold and scary; they didn't want to go and suffer!

Mo Xuan was puzzled but had to let the two little ones stay at a safe distance, reminding them not to run around. The babies obediently stayed there, watching their daddy.

After some time, Mo Xuan finally served the pear tea to the children and the two moms. Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi had already returned to their room beforehand.

Seeing their moms and aunties leave, the two little ones' eyes sparkled. They started to act coquettishly with their daddy, who was helping them change into their pajamas.

"Daddy, stay with Wei'er (Xue'er) to sleep, okay?"

Since the sisters shared a room and a large bed, Mo Xuan occasionally came to sleep with the children. Thinking it had been a few days since he last cuddled the babies, Mo Xuan gently scratched their little noses and said, "Alright, Daddy will take a shower and change into his pajamas. I'll be right back, okay?"

About an hour later, Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi coincidentally left their bedroom and met at the door of Mo Xuan's room.

"Well, well, Muqi," Luo Shiya looked her sister up and down, dressed in a pure white, thin-strapped lace nightgown, her curvaceous figure subtly revealed. "So you're really planning to compete with me?"

Luo Muqi disdainfully glanced at her sister, dressed in a black lace nightgown, no less alluring than herself. She thought for a moment, then blushed slightly and whispered, "Sister, why don't we... do it together..."

Luo Shiya, hearing this, showed no change in expression but turned her head and, in a voice barely audible, said, "Alright..."

But when the sisters opened the door, they found that Mo Xuan wasn't in the bedroom at all! Instead, he was sound asleep, with one arm around each of his precious daughters.

The two little ones hugged their daddy's arms, their sleeping faces showing a sly smile...
