Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Oily and Shiny Face Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Oily and Shiny Face “Dad, go back home, we’re about to eat,” Chuner said with a hungry belly. Seeing Mo Xiaoqiang still standing there, refusing to leave, she pouted unhappily and demanded he leave.
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoqiang glanced at the table and suddenly, his eyes lit up. Most of the dishes were meat. In Mo Family Village, the Mo family was considered above average—neither the wealthiest nor the poorest. However, such dishes were only available during festive occasions. It seemed the rumors outside were true; the old residence was indeed getting wealthy.
“Chuner, daddy hasn’t eaten either and I’m really hungry. Hurry and get a bowl and chopsticks for me.” With the enticing food in front of him, Mo Xiaoqiang had no shame; he pulled up a stool and sat down with a thick-skinned face.
Everyone in the room was stunned. It was their first time seeing such a shameless person.
“You…”
Xuexue slammed her hand on the table, ready to explode in anger, but Madam Xie held her down and shook her head at her.
“But, he…”
“Forget it, no matter what, he’s still your father. Kicking him out would reflect poorly on you,” Madam Xie whispered into Xuexue’s ear, analyzing quietly.
In her previous life, she might have cared about her reputation, but in this life, reborn for revenge, reputation was meaningless to her. However, since her foster mother cared so much, Xuexue decided not to oppose her wishes and tolerated Mo Xiaoqiang for the time being.
“Chuner, go on, get your dad a bowl and chopsticks,” Madam Xie told Chuner.
“Eh!” Chuner looked around and, seeing that her sister had stopped speaking, reluctantly went to the kitchen to fetch bowl and chopsticks for Mo Xiaoqiang.
Mo Xiaoqiang wolfed down his food and didn’t stop until he had finished four large bowls of rice. Only then did he put down his chopsticks, rubbing his round belly, a satisfied look on his face, “Wife, your cooking skills are getting better and better. The braised pork was really delicious.” He licked the greasy remains around his mouth, savoring the taste to the fullest.
“Don’t call me ‘wife’ randomly; my mother has already divorced you,” Xuexue was utterly unceremonious.
Mo Xiaoqiang felt awkward for a moment; he deeply regretted that decision. He turned his head towards Madam Xie, “How about, we reconcile?”
Madam Xie’s face darkened instantly. She diverted her gaze, neither looking at him nor speaking.
Xuexue really wanted Big Bull to slap this shameless man to death. Giving him a meal was already a grand favor, yet he dared to ask for more? Seeing that they now had silver, he thought of reconciling. How delusional! He must think he’s Pan An reincarnated.
“Dad, there’s no need for you to bother about our family’s affairs. Since you’ve had your fill, roll back to where you came from,” Xuexue said, her voice chilling cold radiating from her.
“I am your biological father, is this how you talk to your father?” Mo Xiaoqiang still tried to assert his elder status.
Xuexue glared at him fiercely. When he had plotted against her with Concubine Sun, had he forgotten their relationship then?
Clearly, Mo Xiaoqiang also remembered this incident and immediately fell silent, his guilt evident.
“Daddy, were you reborn as a starving ghost? You’ve scooped out all the rice in the pot,” Chuner walked back with an empty bowl, huffing in anger.
After finishing her first bowl, Chuner still felt hungry and went to the kitchen to get more rice, only to find the pot completely empty. She already disliked Mo Xiaoqiang, this worthless dad, and immediately felt upset.
“Hehe…! Chuner, you’re not full yet?” Mo Xiaoqiang laughed in a cajoling manner.
“Nonsense,” Chuner didn’t give him any face.
“Why don’t you come home with dad for dinner?”
