" Are you sure this is all right?" Mo Yan asked as she placed the news tablet down on the tea table while looking at Wen Gui who was walking back inside the house and brushing his hands with each other as if he had done something grand.
Wen Gui paused and then nodded firmly. He thought about the current relationship between Mo Qiang and Mo Xifeng before saying, " Though the two of them are together most of the time. Their relationship is still formal, I have never seen them speak to each other unless they are talking about harvesting crops or going to another hunt. Worse come to worse they would exchange fighting techniques but I have hardly seen them act like sisters."
" I like the current peace but I also want the family to get along with each other like every other family," he added with a slightly awkward expression on his face. In the past when Mo Qiang complained and scolded Mo Xifeng, he used to turn a blind eye to it because he did not trust Mo Xifeng.
After getting betrayed by someone they trusted, Wen Gui thought that Mo Xifeng was also sent to their house to keep an eye on Mo Yan and them. The person behind it is her father, who betrayed Mo Yan and went to marry someone else.
As someone who stayed with Ling Ye, all the time—— Wen Gui knew what kind of person was Ling Ye. Though he was fine with moving on he did not wish for Mo Yan to do the same, back when they were still struggling while settling down in this star, he had chased away many spies sent by Ling Ye to see whether or not Mo Yan missed him or not.
Being self-absorbed and arrogant, it was normal for Ling Ye to do something like this as he wanted to prove himself correct and Mo Yan wrong. Maybe he even felt the need to show off in front of Wen Gui to say —— Hehe, even though I betrayed her, she still loves me, in your face haha!
Fortunately, Mo Yan was not a lovesick fool. Once she was betrayed by Ling Ye, she never brought his name up which was a huge relief to Wen Gui. But then his wife went ahead and brought Mo Xifeng back with her causing Wen Gui's guards to rise once again.
Maybe it was because Mo Qiang could sense his resistance towards accepting Mo Xifeng, she too started alienating Mo Xifeng causing strife between the two sisters.
But after seeing Mo Xifeng step forward all for the sake of saving his daughter, even going so far as to lose her cultivation level—— Wen Gui no longer wished for the two sisters to remain estranged and polite with each other.
As an elder, he couldn't bring himself to apologize for doubting Mo Xifeng all these years and his apology after all these years might not even mean anything as the damage was done. And even if he were to apologize, Wen Gui knew that it would only burden Mo Xifeng—— rather than apology, it was better to let his actions speak.
But he hoped that his daughter would be able to get along with Mo Xifeng seamlessly. At least that way Mo Xifeng will be able to intricate in the family without any guilt.
When Mo Yan heard Wen Gui's words she was quite touched. Finally, it looks like the stone that was weighing on the heart of her husband was set aside.
" Gui Gui," Mo Yan softly called her husband but the latter did not pay attention to her and then clapped his hands.
