"She is indeed famous!" Mother Mo's eyes flashed with displeasure. "Today, I went to the hospital to see the old professor. On the way there, I came across something unbelievable. Old Mo, I can't wait to go see Tangning. "
"I knew you couldn't wait to see your daughter-in-law."
"I'll hang up first. I'll give Mo Ting a phone call." After hanging up the phone, Mother Mo pulled up Mo Ting's number. She thought she no longer had any expectations for her daughter-in-law. But, at least, she couldn't ignore her own family. But, after seeing the way Tangning treated Tang Xuan, she felt that the person that treated her sister in this way wouldn't treat the people around them well.
As a result, Mother Mo's first impression of Tangning was extremely bad.
Mother Mo's name was Hua Wenfeng. She worked as a bioengineer and spent most of her time with Father Mo at a research facility overseas. In reality, neither of them liked the fact that Mo Ting had inherited Elder Mo's legacy and become the Big Boss of the entertainment industry. So, the two of them were both familiar with and hated the entertainment industry.
Previously, Mo Ting refused to get married. But, because of their work, they did not restrict Mo Ting and left everything up to Elder Mo to handle.
So, as soon as the couple found out that Mo Ting was getting married, they were overjoyed. After all, as his mother, she understood Mo Ting's personality and knew that no one could force him to do anything.
But...
It wasn't easy for them to rush back to Beijing before their daughter-in-law gave birth. But, who would have thought, on their first day, they would bump into Tang Xuan at the hospital!
"Son, mom has returned to Beijing and is currently at the hospital. Can you send someone to pick me up?"
"Uh huh," Mo Ting responded calmly.
Afterwards, Mo Ting stood up from his office chair and said to Lu Che, "If you have something to do in the afternoon, look for Fang Yu."
"Yes, President!"
Mo Ting drove straight home. As soon as he entered the living room, he found Tangning reading a script. He sat down beside her and said, "Ning... go get changed. Let's go pick up your mother-in-law."
"Huh?" Tangning was a little surprised. She didn't understand what Mo Ting meant.
"Mom has just returned from overseas," Mo Ting replied gently. "But, you don't need to be nervous. Just be yourself. I will be here if anything happens."
Tangning understood Mo Ting's personality well, so she smiled, "Your mother is naturally my mother. I will respect her."
"No one is more important than you," Mo Ting's tone turned serious after hearing Tangning's words.
Tangning nodded her head. From Mo Ting's attitude, she could tell she had already prepared herself. Mo Ting's mother may not be someone easy to deal with.
However, deep down, she knew that Mo Ting was on her side. This was something that would never change.
Afterwards, the couple headed to the hospital where Hua Wenfeng was staying. But, as soon as Hua Wenfeng saw Tangning, she did not think she looked evil. In fact, she looked quiet and sincere.
It was hard to imagine how she had climbed from a has-been model to where she was today.
Was she the one who did all those things to deal with others?
"Mom..." Mo Ting wrapped his arm around Tangning as he approached Hua Wenfeng and formally introduced her, "This is my wife, Tangning."
"I know. Hello, Xiao Ning." Hua Wenfeng maintained her good manners as she smiled and shook Tangning's hand. As she looked at her bulging stomach, she temporarily let go of her suspicions. "Pregnancy must have been tough, right?"
"With Ting taking care of me, it wasn't tough at all."
"That's good. Let's get in the car first." Hua Wenfeng understood that the couple had a special status. Even if she wanted to understand Tangning, she couldn't do it without hurting the interests of her son and daughter-in-law. So, she helped Mo Ting back into the car. But, as soon as they got in the car, Hua Wenfeng asked the question in her mind.
"I read in the newspaper that your sister is also staying at this hospital. She even got into an accident today. Do you want to go see her?"
Hearing Hua Wenfeng's question, Tangning froze. She could guess that Hua Wenfeng had already seen something and was prejudiced by her first impression.
"Your grandson and daughter-in-law almost died at her hands twice. There's no need to visit them." Mo Ting's voice was cold and decisive as he directly dispelled Hua Wenfeng's thoughts.
"Let's go then," Hua Wenfeng did not mind Mo Ting's attitude.
However, on the way home, the trio did not have anything in common to talk about. All Tangning could say was that Mo Ting and Hua Wenfeng were 70% similar. From the looks of it, Hua Wenfeng must have had a lot of suitors when she was younger.
Even at her age, she still had an oval face without a single wrinkle. Plus, she had elegant taste in clothes. So, like Mo Ting, Mother Mo gave off an air of nobility that no one could look up to.
Most importantly, she was dignified!
It didn't take long before the trio arrived home. As soon as Hua Wenfeng entered the living room, she grabbed onto Tangning and asked her all sorts of questions. Seeing the script on the table, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you still plan to act?"
"Uh huh, I quite like it," Tangning nodded her head in seriousness.
Hua Wenfeng did not say a word as she maintained her smile. This made Tangning realize that, since Mo Ting was born to be so smart and outstanding, Mother Mo must also be very smart. She could even manage a simple expression perfectly. It seemed, she had finally found a rival.
"What's the expected date of delivery?"
"Around May," Tangning replied.
"OK, this will be the Mo Family's first grandchild."
Tangning was good at observing people and was very sensitive. Although Hua Wenfeng did not show a trace of displeasure, Tangning could sense that Hua Wenfeng did not mean what she said.
"I won't go into too much detail about pregnant women. I'm sure you already know. But, in the later stages of pregnancy, some common illnesses may appear, so you need to be careful."
"Thank you, mom."
Just like this, the couple chatted harmoniously until night time. But, just as they lay in bed and were about to go to sleep, Tangning lifted her head and said to Mo Ting, who was hugging her, "Although mom treats me very well and is very polite... I have a feeling that she has a lot of questions she wants to ask me."
"OK," Mo Ting nodded. "Mom is indeed difficult to deal with."
Actually, if Tangning could tell, how could Mo Ting not feel it?
"But, Ning... I don't need you to be respectful to anyone. Although she is my mother, you are still you. You don't need to make any compromises for her sake."
"You can count on me."
"In that case, if I want to ask you about how mom and wife fell into the water at the same time..."
"I'll save you!" Mo Ting replied without hesitation. "Because she is my father's responsibility and you are my responsibility. My mission is to take care of you for the rest of your life."
"What if everyone calls you unfilial?"
"But, I'd rather be called unfilial than lose you," Mo Ting's voice sounded from above Tangning's head. "You are my life!"
