"Did anything happen recently?"

Seeing that Xiaobai, who was eating happily, stopped eating, and seeing the fragility in Mo Mo's eyes just now, Zhao Wenting asked in a low voice.

"No, although ordinary work is enough to support Xiaobai and I, but..." Mo Mo glanced at Xiaobai beside him and said, "But Xiaobai is still young. I want him to go to a good school to learn to read and write. Even if I go back to that world in the future, he will be able to protect himself and live a better life."

"What? You're leaving?"

Xiaobai, Zhao Wenting and Pei Ming all looked at her in surprise.

Mo Mo smiled faintly, "Perhaps it's too early to say this now. After all, we still don't know the whereabouts of Zang Xi, but I need to prepare in advance for Xiaobai's studies."

Xiaobai's lips were tightly pursed, and his shiny black eyes were covered with a mist without anyone noticing.

"Oh my! Miss Mo, you are really kind-hearted," Pei Ming said with a complicated expression, "You are obviously not much older than him, and you two are not related at all. This is really touching."

After listening to what Pei Ming said, Mo Mo explained expressionlessly: "In that world, I brought Xiao Huihui back to the Yan family and watched him grow up. He was like my own brother. He looked about the same age as Xiaobai now, and...they really looked...exactly the same."

As he spoke, Mo Mo reached out and gently ruffled Xiao Bai's short hair.

Zhao Wenting saw all of this. Although he could understand her kindness to Xiaobai, he still felt jealous.

He lowered his head and stopped looking at the intimate siblings, "Okay, I will help you with this."

"I see that you are not too old, just about the right age to go to college." Zhao Wenting suddenly spoke up, as if he had thought of something, "I can arrange for both of you to go to school, you to college and him to high school."

"But..." Mo Mo was a little surprised. She thought that as long as Xiaobai could go to school, it would be good enough, even though she herself had never been to school. "But I still have to track down Zang Xi's whereabouts, and if I work part-time as Miss Yuxin's assistant, I'm afraid I won't have enough time and energy."

"Enough, more than enough," Pei Ming stood up and spoke again, "Look, Miss Yuxin happens to be a freshman as well. I'll put you two in the same class, so you can study and work at the same time!"

After listening to Pei Ming's arrangements, Mo Mo nodded without saying anything.

Xiaobai didn't say another word after that.

After returning home, Mo Mo slumped on the sofa, reaching out to touch her round belly, with a look of contentment on her face, completely different from the pitiful look she had at the dinner table earlier.

"Oh! The equipment of the Supernatural Bureau is broken at this time. Now it is really hard to tell whether it is a good thing or a bad thing."

Mo Mo said with a smile.

Xiao Bai's face was full of painful frustration, "Sister Mo is a very powerful person in my eyes, and I don't like... seeing you begging for help."

She was stunned. "Don't feel any psychological burden because of this matter. In fact, I did this for selfish reasons. I wanted to get close to Bai Yuxin to investigate some things."

Xiaobai stared at the girl who looked only a few years older than him.

"Really?" Xiao Bai said softly, "Otherwise... I would be very sad inside, blaming myself for being so incompetent and weak that I could only become a burden to my sister."

"And I don't like you to beg other men for me," Xiao Bai's face was very sad and serious, "I can eat one less meal a day, I can not go to school, I can even have no future, but I don't want to see you like this..."

There was a kind of sadness in his eyes that shouldn't belong to his age.

"No! No! You must be fine." Mo Mo sat there stiffly.

"Okay, I understand..." Mo Mo said and bit her lips tightly.

[Perhaps, she really did "overdo it" today. She just wanted to act pitiful so that she could achieve her goal. She relied on Xiaobai's background to seek sympathy from others, and relied on Zhao Wenting's love for her... Perhaps, these means to achieve her goals also invisibly hurt Xiaobai's fragile and sensitive self-esteem.]

But she overlooked the fact that she already held a very important position in Xiaobai's heart.

"Xiaobai, I'm sorry."

Realizing this, her throat began to burn.

"I will...never do this again."

[In the future, I will work hard to manage my life well and seize all the good luck opportunities that God has given her.]

Pei Ming is very efficient in his work.

The next day, he personally took Mo Mo to see Bai Yuxin.

"What? I'm just hiring an assistant for me, but my cousin asked you to come in person?"

Three people walked out of the studio, among them was Bai Yuxin who had just finished her work. She first glanced at Pei Ming in a suit and asked in a low voice.

Mo Mo stood behind Pei Ming and looked at her quietly. She was wearing an apricot tight suspender skirt, which was so short that it only covered her hips. Her slender and charming legs were stepping on a pair of nude high heels, which made a "da da da" sound that was both deafening and powerful when she walked.

Pei Ming nodded politely to her, then took a step to the side, "This is the new assistant that the young master introduced to you, Miss Mo."

Bai Yuxin stared straight at Mo Mo. She had put on a fox-like makeup today, and her captivating eyes met Mo Mo's eyes as calm as the sea for only three seconds, then she chuckled and asked:

"what's your name?"

"Mo Mo. The last name is Mo, which has a grass radical, and the first name is Mo, which has three drops of water and bubbles."

"It's easy to remember," Bai Yuxin continued to look at Mo Mo, then leaned in and stared at her beautiful face, and said, "You want to be my assistant, so... have you ever done this kind of work before?"

After saying that, Bai Yuxin turned to the side very proudly, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked into the distance with her head slightly raised, leaving only a proud profile to Mo Mo.

"Well, Miss Mo used to work in our Supernatural Bureau." Pei Ming knew Bai Yuxin's temper and expected that she might make things difficult for Mo Mo, so he decided to personally send her here to meet Bai Yuxin. Hearing Bai Yuxin's question, he immediately answered for Mo Mo.

At this moment, Pei Ming's cell phone rang. He looked and saw that it was Zhao Wenting who called. Zhao Wenting happened to have an important meeting to attend today, so he couldn't come in person. He had already explained this to Mo Mo on the way here. This time he called to ask about her situation.

Pei Ming raised his eyebrows and answered the call immediately. After simply saying a few "yes", he handed the phone to Bai Yuxin in front of him, "Cousin, it's the young master. He said he needs to explain a few things to you."

Bai Yuxin kept a faint smile on her face as she reached out to take the phone. After listening to Zhao Wenting's words, she didn't say anything extra. Just like Pei Ming, she uttered a few "yes" in response.

Mo Mo lowered her head slightly, knowing that as long as Zhao Wenting came forward, there would be no problem with the assistant's job. But she didn't show anything, standing there expressionlessly, neither humble nor arrogant, very calm.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Yuxin's gaze stayed on Mo Mo for a few seconds, and she said calmly, "Then come and report for work tomorrow. Since you have become my assistant, you must have the necessary image. After all, I am a star." After saying that, she looked Mo Mo up and down with a mocking look.

Mo Mo and Pei Ming stood there, looking at Bai Yuxin's departing back.

As soon as she appeared, Mo Mo had already started observing her. When they looked at each other, she was sizing herself up, and Mo Mo was also sizing Bai Yuxin up. The two of them seemed to have eight hundred eyes in their eyes, but Mo Mo still couldn't be sure if she was pretending not to know him.

【Perhaps, further verification is needed. 】

"Ms. Mo, congratulations, you will soon be Miss Cousin's assistant. So... do you need me to give you a ride to the mall?" Pei Ming asked cautiously.

"No, thank you for today, Pei Ming." Mo Mo thanked him politely and smiled. Although Pei Ming was a chatterbox and gossipy, he gave people a more humane feeling. She looked down at what she was wearing and said, "I can go by myself later."

Seeing Mo Mo's refusal, Pei Ming said nothing more. At least, the assistant work was successfully completed.
