I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 635 - 644
Chapter 635: Chapter 644
Moh Li’s lips always held a smile, devoid of any anger or resentment.
It was as if, no matter how poorly the Ou Family treated him, he would never harbor any complaints.
"Moh Li, are you blaming your grandfather, unwilling to give him a chance to make amends? Your parents are no longer here, if I don’t take care of you, who will?"
Old Master of the Ou Family said this with tears streaming down his face, overcome with emotion.
However, in Moh Li’s eyes, it was all just for show.
"Grandfather, you misunderstand. I truly feel that you are doing this for my own good, that these years have been to temper me. I think my parents also wouldn’t want me to rely on you and achieve nothing."
Such indifference was at least better than being overly praised.
Thus, Moh Li was genuinely thankful to them for not placing him in their hearts.
It was what allowed him to grow, wasn’t it?
"Moh Li..."
Old Master was utterly disheartened. Moh Li’s words made him feel as if he was choking on something, unable to swallow or spit it out, and immensely frustrated.
Had he known it would come to this, he should have gotten rid of him from the start.
Yet, he truly couldn’t bear to give up those things. But it just wasn’t possible...
"Moh Li, how will you manage alone in the future? You’re just a child, if I let you move out, how can I face your mother who died so young?"
Naturally, he couldn’t let Moh Li leave, for if Moh Li left, those things would no longer belong to them.
If Moh Li stayed, at least he would have half.
"Grandfather, I’ve promised my grandfather that I will strive to become a Doctor. I’m naturally quite slow, and I am grateful that my master does not disdain me. From now on, I will follow my master and learn medicine."
Moh Li looked resolutely at Old Han, knowing that he could not stay with the Ou Family forever, otherwise, even if he succeeded in the future, others would say it was all thanks to the Ou Family.
He had to rely on himself to become the top traditional healer in Nan Country, to redeem the Moh Family’s name and prove that his grandfather’s treatments were right!
He would not give up, and his grandfather surely wouldn’t either.
This time, he told himself not to let hatred blind him. Just as Bai Zhi said, he asked himself, what was his original intention?
His original intention was that year when he told his grandfather that he wanted to become a man like him.
It was Bai Zhi who made him realize what he truly wanted to do.
In this moment, Moh Li stood against the light, yet everyone felt that he radiated a firm and confident aura.
If it were something else, maybe Old Master of the Ou Family could still argue that it was wrong, but since it involved Miracle Doctor Han, what could he say?
"Alright, but you must visit me often, grandfather will worry.
Miracle Doctor Han, could you please give us this list so we can check it off one by one? That would make it easier to bring everything out. Just the two of you, how will you carry it all?"
Old Master of the Ou Family seemed genuinely concerned, and pointed out this problem.
Old Han casually waved his hand, indicating that it was no issue, and with a clap of his hands, twenty or thirty people rushed in.
"Today I will sit right here, you guys hurry up and sort it out."
Old Han, cracking melon seeds and drinking tea, showed that he was in no hurry, insisting that it all had to be settled today.
"Moh Li, it’s like this, your grandfather hasn’t sorted it out properly, could you help him tidy it up a bit?"
If Moh Li were here, things wouldn’t be like this.
Moh Li actually wanted to laugh – did his grandfather think he was easy to manipulate?
"Okay." He did want to see what exactly his grandfather was scheming.
After Moh Li agreed, Old Master of the Ou Family was naturally overjoyed—he was confident that Moh Li would agree and not pursue the matter further.
"Miracle Doctor Han, what do you think?"
Old Master of the Ou Family looked towards Old Han, worried that Old Han might disagree, which would complicate matters.
"Just look for yourselves, why are you looking at me?"
Old Han wasn’t worried about Moh Li at all. If he were truly disappointed, it was just a matter of kicking the problem aside.
"Moh Li, take the prescription and come with me."
Old Master suddenly seemed to have lost all his vigor, appearing much older.
Indeed, that was the case; anyone would feel depressed.
The stolen items once thought to be theirs were now proving to be a slap in the face. The banner of the First Pharmacy seemed to mock them wherever they looked.
Moh Li followed him into the storeroom.
This was his first time seeing such a place, as previously he had never had the privilege to do so.
Before, he could only watch from afar.
"Ouyang, I’ll tell you the truth..." Old Master looked at Moh Li in distress.
"I am Moh Li’s grandfather..."
Moh Li felt somewhat helpless; even his name was misunderstood. And to think he had the audacity to say he cared.
That was somewhat ironic...
"Oh, Moh Li, sorry, grandfather got it wrong because I was too excited just now." fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Old Master faltered but then quickly recovered and spoke. At this point, anything he said was in vain.
"Moh Li, look, this is our family’s storeroom. Half of your mother’s dowry came from here. What else can we possibly have?
Moh Li, I know you might think I am being a bit excessive. But I have no other choice, we are all hungry, we’ll talk more this afternoon, shall we?"
Better yet, the kind that didn’t need checking at all.
"Grandfather, no matter how long you avoid it, don’t let others’ opinions of you change, and you must clear up what needs to be cleared, then find a way to solve it..."
Old Master: "..."
"My master said those collectibles are all hard-won, much sought-after items he bid for. I hope you hurry up and send them over."
Moh Li was straightforward.
"And those pieces of furniture and the jewelry, too, need to go to him."
Moh Li explained once again, but perhaps it was better not to explain at all, as Old Master wouldn’t have felt so crushed.
"Of course..." His heart was in pain, terribly so, and in physical pain too.
"And..."
"And what!" Old Master jumped up in surprise. "What else?"
"The profits from the shop."
Old Master: "..." He wasn’t allowed to keep anything; Moh Li was truly an ingrate.
"Fine." He said through gritted teeth.
"Grandfather, then I’ll head out first."
Anyway, he had achieved his aim.
"You go first, I’ll see what else there is."
Otherwise, he was minutes away from hitting someone in here.
Old Master of the Ou Family, no matter how uncomfortable, could only begin tidying up.
He quickly checked each item off the list, and soon all the objects were laid out in the hall.
Everyone watching could scarcely believe their eyes; the Moh Family had always been so wealthy.
So the saying of relying on others was nonsense—did the Moh Family need Moh Li to rely on others?
Perhaps it was more accurate to say that it was the Ou Family who relied on Moh Li...
