Hua Wenfeng's gentleness made all the words Mo Ting wanted to say, but they were all stuck in his throat.
"I was just saying it casually. If you don't like it, I won't mention it again." Hua Wenfeng retreated in order to advance. This made Tangning realize how smart her mother-in-law was. "After all, I'm already so old. I can't and shouldn't interfere in the lives of young people. I've overstepped my boundaries."
Tangning did not say a word. She simply smiled at Hua Wenfeng.
However, she hated the feeling of having to be so careful at home.
Mo Ting glanced at Hua Wenfeng calmly. He did not say another word as he wrapped his arm around Tangning's waist. After quite some time, he finally said, "Mom... I've bought another house in Hyatt. It's close to the sea. I know you and dad like it, so I've already asked someone to prepare it. You can move in within 3 days. When that time comes, you won't have to stay in the guest room anymore."
The meaning of this was already very clear …
Mo Ting wanted Hua Wenfeng to stop interfering with his and Tangning's lives.
"Young people have their own way of life. I understand. Fine... since your father is coming home soon, I'll move in first and won't be going overseas for a while."
However, Hua Wenfeng did not show any signs of anger. In fact, she acted like she was talking about something normal.
This was an eye-opener for Tangning. Perhaps, she should give up her position as the number one ninja in the world to Hua Wenfeng.
Tangning didn't really like Hua Wenfeng. As long as Hua Wenfeng didn't cross the line, she would definitely respect her. However, up until now, she had yet to see Hua Wenfeng open up her heart to her. Of course, she didn't expect a mother-in-law to treat her daughter-in-law with such sincerity after meeting her for only a few days.
"Mom, I'm sure you won't be used to moving over on your own without any preparations. Why don't you wait for dad to come home before moving in?" Tangning said gently. Her tone contained a hint of coquettishness.
What had Tangning not been through?
Why would she be afraid of establishing a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship?
Above all, up until now, she had yet to see any ill intentions from Hua Wenfeng. At least, she had shown concern for them, even if their relationship was a little over the line. But, any relationship had to go through a process of getting used to. In this world, the only person who could understand her from the start... was Mo Ting!
"Xiao Ning, take good care of yourself. Mom will take care of you," Hua Wenfeng maintained her gentleness as an elder the entire time.
So, Tangning simply nodded her head.
…
Late at night, the couple were already lying in bed. In the midst of her drowsiness, Tangning leaned her elbow against Mo Ting's chest, "Hubby..."
"You're not asleep yet?" Mo Ting turned his body slightly and hugged her even tighter. "You want to ask me about mom, right?"
"I can't really feel her heart."
It was common knowledge that Tangning was good at observing people. As long as she set her eyes on someone or experienced something small, she would be able to see through them, even though she would never expose them.
But, Hua Wenfeng...
She couldn't even guess what she was thinking.
"It's my fault … I only told her about our marriage and nothing else."
"It's not your style to hide things."
"At the time, she didn't ask too much, so I had no idea that her attitude towards you would be so vague and unpredictable," Mo Ting explained gently. "I know you don't like to be left in the dark, so I just want to make things clear. After mom moves out, I will remove all the guest rooms, leaving only the master bedroom and the nursery."
"You can't blame her. After all, the first thing she saw was Tang Xuan's suicide. It's no surprise that she would misunderstand me. So, give me some time and let me try to get closer to her," Tangning said as she leaned against Mo Ting's chest. "How long has it been since you last saw your mother?"
"The last time we met was around 4 years ago."
"In that case, not only does she not treat me well, she also treats you as her son. She has no idea that my Mo Ting has already become so powerful. So, let's try to let her understand us. That's more important than anything else. "
"Actually, as long as she accepts someone, she will do her best for them." This was something that Mo Ting understood Hua Wenfeng well.
After all, she was his mother. How could she possibly be an evil person?
Impossible!
"Mhmm," Tangning responded before she drifted off to sleep.
So, the next morning, around 10am, just as Hua Wenfeng was about to leave the house with her handbag, she ran into a well-dressed Tangning sitting on the sofa. Of course, because she was going to meet with the elders, Tangning was dressed appropriately.
"You …"
"I'm waiting for mom," Tangning replied humbly.
"Let's go then." Seeing that Tangning was quiet, Hua Wenfeng immediately ran over to help her up. Soon, the two women arrived at the entrance of the hospital. The hospital in front of them was none other than the hospital that Tang Xuan was currently recovering at.
As soon as Hua Wenfeng saw the hospital entrance, she was reminded of the scene of Tang Xuan's car accident. So, a chill ran down her spine.
This was the simplest and most direct reason for her to reject Tangning. Of course, she wasn't like the people outside who would directly embarrass Tangning. But, if she was asked to accept Tangning immediately, she would feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Mom, I know that as soon as you returned to China, you saw the Tang Family's news and personally witnessed Tang Xuan's incident."
Because of their identities, the two did not directly appear at the hospital. Instead, they waited in the car. Meanwhile, Hua Wenfeng never expected that Tangning would be so direct.
"I have to admit, when it came to dealing with Tang Xuan, I spared no effort. I did indeed hate her. I endured for over 20 years, but in the end, I was hurt by her. Most importantly, she tried to hurt my and Mo Ting's child. This is the most unforgivable thing I can do."
"I don't expect you to understand, I simply want you to be fair. Not everyone who is standing and smiling is free from pain."
"Yang Xi directly hurt me and our child, but I still let her off the hook. But, I can't let Tang Xuan go …"
Hua Wenfeng never expected Tangning to say such heartfelt words. After a long silence, so long that Tangning thought she wouldn't respond, she suddenly replied, "I'm afraid that if you can be so ruthless towards your sister, what about your other family members? What about Mo Ting's family? "
"Mom, time truly reveals a person's heart."
"Actually, I already knew that you were a famous model. But, I had no idea that you ended up becoming an actress," Hua Wenfeng explained.
"What's wrong with being an actress?" Tangning suddenly grasped the key point in Hua Wenfeng's words.
Actress!
But, Mo Ting was the king of the entertainment industry and Elder Mo was a famous actor. Yet, Hua Wenfeng didn't seem to have much of a reaction.
