Chapter 1508: He Is My Son (81)

Seeing how insistent he was, Shi Nianyao knew it was no use trying to talk him out of it. She could only nod and agree.

After getting ready, they left the house.

Just as they approached the gate, they saw that the Shi family car had stopped right outside. When the chauffeur saw the couple, he immediately got out of the car and said, “Miss, Madam has asked me to come and take you home.”

Shi Nianyao: …

Mo Xicheng gave Shi Nianyao a glance and said at once, “I will take her home.”

The chauffeur nodded.

All along the way home, he drove behind them.

Through the rearview mirror, he could see that Shi Nianyao was restless and nervous.

He couldn’t help but tease her, “Where’s the bravery you had last night when you asked me to turn the car around?”

She lowered her head and muttered, “It was because of the temptation to sleep with my idol last night, but that’s not the case anymore.”

Mo Xicheng: …

The remark stumped him instantly. He threw a few glances at her and shook his head as he continued driving.

Very soon, they arrived at the Shi family home. As his car pulled to a stop in the courtyard, he could see Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan making their way out of the living room hurriedly and then towards the cars.

Shi Nianyao remained seated in the front passenger seat and took a few deep breaths before opening the car door.

She immediately smiled and called out, “Mom!”

Si Jingyu shook her head at the girl at once.

Mo Xicheng got out of the driver seat. He looked at the both of them, nodded and greeted them,”Mom, Dad.”

Si Jingyu was speechless.

And so was Shi Jinyan.

The man immediately said, “Don’t call us that, we’re not your in-laws yet!”

Before he could finish, Si Jingyu tugged at his sleeve. Shi Jinyan fell silent and did not continue.

Si Jingyu looked at Mo Xicheng up and down a few times, suddenly smiled and asked, “Have you had breakfast?”

Before Mo Xicheng could reply, Shi Nianyao quickly said, “Yes, we did, my idol made me sandwiches and milk for breakfast.”

Si Jingyu looked at the young man in astonishment and said, “You can cook?”

He lowered his gaze and nodded. “I learnt it in my free time.”

Looking quite satisfied, she said, “It’s good to learn as much as you can in life. And it’s good to experience different things. But you probably have a brighter future than Nianyao. Long ago, when she was learning how to cook, she set the kitchen on fire.”

“Not that I have a brighter future, but after having gone through so much trial and error, I’ve learnt to make a decent meal.”

Si Jingyu nodded.

She looked at Mo Xicheng up and down again and recalled Li Shu’s words. She couldn’t help but sigh. Indeed, as they say, it’s all in the genes.

Even though this young man had had his rightful place swapped when he was a baby, he had inherited Li Shu’s unmistakable intellectual aura.

“It is a real pity,” the woman thought, “that this young man has lived such a plight.”

Turning to Shi Nianyao, she said, “Since you’ve eaten, isn’t it time to go to work?”

“What?” Shi Nianyao was confused.

Had she misheard? Why weren’t her parents interrogating her about what had happened last night?

She turned, gave Mo Xicheng a puzzled look and heard the young man saying, “I’ll go to work now.”

Shi Nianyao was still in a daze after Mo Xicheng left. But turning around to look at her parents, she realized they didn’t look like they were going to pursue the matter.

She stuck her tongue out in relief and quickly ran upstairs.
