Lan Yu Xi said indignantly, "I'm back, and you haven't even come to see me and your godson... Hurry up and bring Yi Sang over, I'll check him... Don't say useless things, what does it matter to you, did those people get arranged by you... What a demeanor! Come over quickly, don't let Auntie cook, eat at my place tonight... Call Joyce, if he doesn't have any social engagements tonight, come over too... Fine, I'll call him, I really owe the two of you!"
After Lan Yu Xi finished speaking, she hung up the phone with a snap and turned to the housekeeper, "Arrange for someone to pick up Wan Qi."
The housekeeper responded and walked out.
Xin Mo Li looked at Lan Yu Xi with envy. Such a good friend could speak in such a tone. She had lived on the island since she was young, with very few people to interact with, and even fewer playmates. She longed for friends, but due to her special identity, she dared not get too close to anyone.
The only person who could be considered a friend was Lan Mu Shu, but he had broken off relations with her because she had kidnapped him to the island.
Just as she was feeling sad, Lan Yu Xi had already dialed Joyce's number.
Xin Mo Li listened intently, only to find that her attitude towards Joyce was even worse, like an elder scolding a junior.
Lan Yu Xi reprimanded Joyce a few times, and seeing Xin Mo Li watching her, she quickly hung up the phone and sat down beside her.
"Didn't I scare you? We're used to talking like this, don't mind it."
Xin Mo Li smiled and shook her head, "No, I envy you for having such good friends."
Lan Yu Xi slightly hooked the corner of her lips, "The couple, one is my best friend, and the other is my disciple. They are both good people. You'll know them when they arrive."
"Is she Aunt Miao's daughter?"
"You know my godmother?"
"Aunt Miao came yesterday and cried with Mu Mu for a long time. They were all very guilty. When you said that, I understood why you spoke to them in that tone. Speaking like this will alleviate some of their guilt!"
"You know me best, Mo Li!" Lan Yu Xi smiled and hugged her shoulders, whispering, "Have you reconciled with my fifth brother?"
Xin Mo Li glanced at Tang Wan, who was talking to the Luo family not far away, and said in a low voice, "Aunt Tang scolded him last night, and then he spoke to me properly."
Lan Yu Xi frowned and thought for a moment, "I think something is not right here. You two are friends, and he should help you out of trouble. He shouldn't have such a big reaction."
Xin Mo Li's face blushed slightly, "We had some misunderstandings before. Two things combined like this."
"What things? Tell me, maybe I can help you two resolve the misunderstanding."
Xin Mo Li opened her mouth, but ultimately did not say anything.
Lan Yu Xi, not getting her gossip fix, looked somewhat disappointed at Nan Xiao, who was sitting in the corner sending messages.
Nan Xiao sensed her gaze and looked at her dotingly, "Uncle Huo sent me a message, wanting to visit with Old Master Huo. Should I refuse them?"
Lan Yu Xi's mouth twitched, "If you refuse, Old Master Huo and Uncle Huo definitely won't be able to sleep tonight."
Nan Xiao thought for a moment, "Then I'll let them come?"
"Please invite them over, and Huo Ding and Lu Xi too. Let's clear things up today, so that they won't be too afraid to see us."
Nan Xiao chuckled helplessly, "This matter had nothing to do with them in the first place. They really didn't need to blame themselves so much. I'll call them and let them know."
Not long after Nan Xiao left, Luo Wan Qi walked in with Yi Sang, followed by an aunt carrying a large bag of baby supplies.
Lan Yu Xi looked at the large bag and smiled, "You came so quickly, and you're so well-prepared. It looks like you were just waiting for my call. I should have known, and not called you."
Luo Wan Qi pouted, "Yu Xi, I'm sorry. If it weren't for Yi Sang being sick..."
"Stop!" Lan Yu Xi rolled her eyes, "Anyone who mentions this again is a puppy! Come, let me introduce you to a new friend."
Luo Wan Qi looked at Xin Mo Li, her eyes full of amazement. This wild beauty was truly stunning. She was probably another person Yu Xi tricked into being her sister-in-law.
"Hello, beautiful. I'm Luo Wan Qi."
Xin Mo Li quickly introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Xin Mo Li. Wow—your little baby is mixed-race! So good-looking!"
Luo Wan Qi said with great tenderness, "He was discharged today. Before he was hospitalized, he was even better-looking than he is now."
Lan Yu Xi looked at Yi Sang with loving eyes, "Mm, he has lost quite a bit of weight. He looked better when he was plump."
Zhao Zhao walked over, tiptoeing, wanting to see Yi Sang.
Lan Yu Xi bent down and picked him up.
Luo Wan Qi pursed her lips tightly, her face full of guilt, "Zhao Zhao, you were scared, weren't you?"
Zhao Zhao smiled and shook his head, "Godmother, I wasn't scared. This little scene is nothing compared to before."
Luo Wan Qi sighed softly, "You child, although you don't talk much, whenever you speak, you're a complete little warm guy. I wonder who you take after."
Lan Yu Xi smiled and said, "I take after me, of course. Who else would I take after, Nan Xiao?"
Luo Wan Qi scoffed, "Oh, please! I think Zhao Zhao takes after Nan Xiao."
Lan Yu Xi pouted, "You don't know how to talk at all!"
Tang Wan smiled and said, "Give Zhao Zhao and Yi Sang to us. If you two want to bicker, do it far away from us."
Luo Wan Qi smiled and handed Yi Sang to Tang Wan.
Tang Wan smiled and swayed Yi Sang, saying to Miao Si Qi, "I already have three grandchildren, but this is the first time I'm holding such a young child. I need to practice, so I don't forget how to do it later."
Seeing her take the child further away, Xin Mo Li quickly followed.
Tang Wan smiled and looked at her, "You like children too?"
Xin Mo Li looked at Yi Sang with gentle eyes, and when Tang Wan asked, she smiled and nodded, "I do! Whenever a child is born on the island, I go to see them."
Tang Wan hesitated, "Why don't you hold Yi Sang?"
"Can I?" Xin Mo Li looked at Tang Wan and then at Luo Wan Qi.
Luo Wan Qi generously waved her hand, "Of course you can. Hold him, it's fine."
Xin Mo Li carefully took Yi Sang.
Sensing an unfamiliar scent, Yi Sang's little mouth pouted, and he started to cry.
Xin Mo Li quickly held him and walked around the living room, cooing softly to comfort him.
When Lan Xiao Wu came downstairs, he saw this scene. He was slightly stunned before walking down.
Luo Wan Qi smiled and nudged Lan Yu Xi's arm, "Mo Li is better at taking care of children than you are. And, don't let her wild clothes fool you, her heart is actually softer than anyone else's."
When Lan Xiao Wu heard this, the corner of his eye twitched uncontrollably. Her, soft-hearted?
Xin Mo Li secretly glanced at Lan Xiao Wu, then turned around uncomfortably, showing him her back.
Lan Xiao Wu cast a displeased glance at her, took Zhao Zhao from his sister's arms, and said, "Let Fifth Uncle see our little hero!"
