Nursing Home Encounter with My Mother

"Ah~"

Mo Xuan stretched as he got up. He had to admit that the aromatherapy really worked well, and he hadn't even dreamed last night, sleeping deeply instead.

He couldn't even remember what he had said yesterday under Luo Shiya's psychological suggestion...

After getting up and getting ready, changing his clothes, Mo Xuan naturally put on the Round Table Knight watch that the sisters had given him. In the past, Mo Xuan would have carefully stored it away, but today he felt different, casually putting the watch on his wrist before throwing on a coat and leaving his room.

"Daddy!"

The two little sweethearts were already up. Since mommy had told them daddy was sleeping, the two little ones had been very well-behaved and hadn't disturbed Mo Xuan.

"Mr. Mo is up?" Uncle Zheng smiled when he saw Mo Xuan. "The elder miss has gone to the company, and the second miss is waiting to have breakfast with you."

"Shiya left so early again?"

"Yes, the elder miss..."

Uncle Zheng was taken aback - Shiya? Since when did Mo Xuan address the elder miss so intimately? But Mo Xuan seemed normal otherwise, smiling as he hugged the two little darlings.

"The elder miss had some business at the company, so she left a bit earlier."

Uncle Zheng thought nothing more of it. After all, Mo Xuan was the biological father of the two little misses, and considering his involvement in certain past events, he wondered if Mo Xuan had finally come to his senses.

"Brother, come have breakfast?" Luo Muqi was wearing a pure white dress today, with the necklace Mo Xuan had given her around her neck. "I need to go to the company later too, there's an event I need to attend. If it ends early, shall we go visit grandmother at the nursing home together?"

"Better not," Mo Xuan said awkwardly. "Last time you all went, the whole nursing home found out. I need to go to school this afternoon, but I'll be back early tonight."

After thinking for a moment, he added: "Muqi, didn't you want to eat those little cakes from that place? How about I bring some back for you tonight?"

Uncle Zheng: "...!!!"

Had Mr. Mo suddenly achieved enlightenment? How did he become so different after just one night's sleep? In the past, he could barely string words together when speaking to the two misses, but today not only had his way of addressing them changed, but his whole manner of speaking was different, and even seemed... doting?

"Yes, yes!" Luo Muqi showed no surprise, instead smiling happily. "I want chocolate flavor, brother."

It really worked! Big sister really is a genius!

"Wei'er and Xue'er like fruit flavor, right? Should daddy bring some for you too?" Mo Xuan kissed each of his daughters. "Come on, let's eat first."

Uncle Zheng watched from the side, feeling something was off. Mo Xuan seemed no different from usual, yet somehow he was different.

"Well, in some ways this is a good thing..."

Uncle Zheng didn't know what had happened, but considering how much effort and sacrifice his two misses had made to keep Mo Xuan, as long as they were happy, he had nothing to worry about.

After breakfast, Mo Xuan coaxed his daughters to wait for him at home, then went to the garage to find his limited edition Maybach. There was no choice - the Bugatti Chiron was too flashy.

Seeing Mo Xuan drive off in the Maybach shocked Uncle Zheng again, and even the security guards at the gate were stunned.

Like a bride's first time in a wedding sedan - this was unprecedented! Had Mr. Mo finally accepted living as a kept man?

"Second Miss, Mr. Mo drove out," Uncle Zheng quickly reported to Luo Muqi as she was preparing to leave. "What's happened to Mr. Mo? He's wearing the watch you and Elder Miss bought him, and he even took the car you bought him to visit his grandmother at the nursing home today."

"Isn't that wonderful?" Luo Muqi seemed completely unconcerned. "Oh right, make sure to follow up about having brother's other car delivered back soon."

Mr. Mo, you've finally fallen... Uncle Zheng sighed. Mo Xuan had done well to hold out this long. But something felt off - how could one night's sleep change Mo Xuan so much?

He looked questioningly at the Second Miss who was about to get into her Bentley, but didn't pursue the matter further. Despite his seniority, he was still just a servant. If the Luo family didn't mind Mo Xuan's existence, as long as the two misses were happy, he had no concerns.

In the car, Mo Xuan couldn't help but marvel at how dull and tedious the life of the wealthy was. He had ridden in Maybachs before, but compared to the Mo family's, this one was clearly in a different league.

Arriving at the nursing home, Mo Xuan parked and took out the fruits and nutritional supplements he'd bought for his grandmother on the way. The nursing home staff knew him very well - previously when Luo Shiya and Luo Muqi visited, they had given every staff member a 2,000 yuan red envelope, not missing anyone from the cleaning ladies to the security guards! They had even ordered lunch from a star-rated hotel for everyone in the facility.

Everyone at the nursing home, whether staff or patients, looked at Mo Xuan with kindly expressions.

"Mr. Mo, you're here?" A care worker auntie rushed over when she saw Mo Xuan. "Please go check quickly - a woman came today with a young man to visit the elderly madam. They didn't argue, but the elderly madam doesn't look too happy!"

Woman, young man - hearing the care worker's words, Mo Xuan couldn't help but sneer, knowing exactly who it was without having to guess. Walking to his grandmother's room, he heard a voice he absolutely despised speaking nauseating words:

"Mother, why do you insist on this? The shares are useless to you, and Father and Changshan are just trying to give you and little Xuan a chance. We're family, why make things so tense?"

Qin Ni, Mo Xuan's biological mother and CEO of Qin's Jewelry. She truly possessed stunning beauty, and Mo Xuan had inherited all the best features from both her and his father Mo Changshan. Wearing a haute couture suit, she was accompanied by a man in his twenties in a navy blue suit, with neatly combed hair and delicate features, though his face was somewhat pale.

This person was Jiang Sifeng, Qin Ni's assistant and the godson she had watched grow up.

"Look, Mother, five percent each for Xuan and Jinpeng. You know Xuan doesn't work at the company, so giving him too many shares wouldn't be appropriate."

Qin Ni was patiently trying to persuade her, while Grandmother stared out the window from her hospital bed, looking haggard and silent. Aunt Zhang, who was caring for Grandmother, glared fiercely at Qin Ni. If Grandmother hadn't waved her off, she would have slapped that woman!

Aunt Zhang's mother had been Grandmother's closest friend for decades, and Aunt Zhang's husband was Master Zhang from the National Martial Arts Association - Mo Xuan was his only closed-door disciple. For all these years, Grandmother and Mo Xuan had relied on the Zhang family's help. Mo Xuan's grandfather and grandmother had never gotten along well, and though they hadn't divorced, they had been living separately even before raising Mo Xuan.

Grandmother still held 10% of Mo Corporation's shares, and after Mo Xuan turned 15, the Mo family would come asking for them every year. But Grandmother had told them these shares were for Mo Xuan, and no one else could covet them.

When Grandmother fell ill and entered the nursing home, Mo Xuan returned home. Since Mo Xuan cut ties with the family, his parents would come roughly every three to four months, never caring about Grandmother's health, only talking about the shares.

"Mother, why insist on this? It's sad to see our family like this - ultimately, it was a mistake to let you raise little Xuan," Qin Ni sighed. "Look at him compared to Jinpeng, even my godson who's lost both parents is more obedient and sensible than him. I understand you care for him since you raised him, but you don't hold any position in the company, and Father gave you those shares back then. Now you and Father barely see each other once a year - there's no point in this conflict. Just hand over the shares, and I promise Father and Changshan won't pursue anything regarding you and little Xuan."

"Oh, how very kind of you all," Grandmother sneered. "I raised the child wrong? This is the first time I've heard of a mother abandoning her two-year-old son with his grandmother, not caring for him herself, and then blaming the grandmother when things go wrong! Qin Ni, you're so enthusiastic about raising other people's sons while ignoring your own. I'm trying to secure a future for my grandson, and you're saying that's wrong?"
