Two unexpected guests arrived at the neighborhood where Li's mother lives.

"Hello, I'm Li Mo's friend."

The man who arrived was in his early twenties, composed and handsome. When he smiled, he revealed eight large, white teeth, making even the sunlight seem brighter. This man was none other than Wang Lei, the new butler of the Wang family.

Mrs. Li was cooking lunch, which she needed to deliver to her youngest daughter. She opened the door with initial impatience, but once she saw the young man's attire, she immediately invited him in.

I never expected that my son, who doesn't make friends easily, would have such extraordinary friends.

Mrs. Li wiped her hands, feeling incredibly awkward about her appearance. She was wearing pajamas, her hair in a typical madam's bun, no makeup, and reeking of cooking oil—it was so embarrassing.

Xiao Mo is really something, she didn't even say anything beforehand. She made herself look so foolish in front of the important person.

"Please sit down...have some fruit...are you thirsty? Let me pour you some water?" Mrs. Li smiled gently, trying her best to project the image of a good, homely mother.

Li's mother was used to being domineering, and her feigned gentleness was somewhat awkward. Fortunately, the two young people in front of her didn't mind and played along until the end of the act.

Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself: Luckily I was quick-witted and escaped another disaster.

“Auntie, don’t bother. We’ve come to take you to enjoy a life of luxury. We’ve prepared a place for you to stay—a large villa.” The young man leading the group stopped her, smiling kindly.

"Should I go alone, or should the whole family go?" A hint of wariness flashed in Li's mother's eyes. Could this person be a hypocritical human trafficker?

Surprisingly, they saw their own beauty in their slovenly appearance.

It's such a waste of such a good-looking young man to become a human trafficker.

Li's mother thought she had subtly stepped back a few paces.

Great!

Am I letting a wolf into my house?

The young man completely ignored her warning and continued to smile kindly.

"Of course, the whole family will move there. We've already found a prestigious school for Miss Li. Li Mo is currently working for the country, leading a research institute. Mr. Li won't have to work anymore, and he'll have inexhaustible wealth to enjoy."

It's so unreal! It feels like I've been hit by a pie. Li's mother felt like she was floating; her legs almost gave way and she collapsed to the ground.

Even a scriptwriter wouldn't dare write something like this, really.

The young man gave a strange smile and stepped forward to help Li's mother.

"Be careful, don't fall."

"Am I going to be a rich wife from now on? When I have free time, I can invite my girlfriends for tea or go shopping. I don't have to do anything, and I'll have endless money to spend?" Mrs. Li exaggeratedly gestured, looking like she had never seen the world before.

This kind of life was something she never dared to dream of. In her romantic and naive youth, she could still fantasize about it, but as she grew up, life had long since smoothed out her rough edges. When she thinks back to the past, she would say, "I was young once."

Wang Lei felt a pang of sympathy for Li Mo for a second. Li Mo wasn't particularly close to her parents, and her mother's first thought was of her. It seemed his task would be completed soon.

Despite his disdain, Butler Wang still put on a patient and explaining act.

"Our son has made something of himself, so it's only right that he takes care of you. Life will only get better from now on."

Hearing the answer that satisfied her, Li's mother's legs no longer felt weak, and her dazed expression returned to normal. She pushed away the young man's hand and plopped down on the sofa.

Since his wealth and status didn't depend on them, there was no need for him to be subservient to them. Frankly, the two were just his son's subordinates; there was absolutely no need for him to curry favor with them.

"Please make yourselves at home. I'm going to call my daughter." Seeing that the two people didn't stop her, Li's mother believed them a little more.

"Hey, Little Red, come back quickly! We're rich now! What do you want? Mommy will buy it for you right away..."

Wang Lei looked at his hand that had been pushed away, listened to the mother and daughter's conversation, and smiled sarcastically. What great maternal love! She couldn't even wait a quarter of an hour.

Li Mo's family was moved into a villa, and Li's mother began her life as a wealthy wife.

With nothing to do, I invite wealthy women from the neighborhood over for afternoon tea or cocktail parties. I've also invited my old neighbors twice.

It has to be said, Liu Qingmei is incredibly shameless. Not only did she come alone, but she also brought her entire family of three, including her son's girlfriend. When they left, they ate and took things without any hesitation.

Li Mo received the news that same day.

Wang Lei said that he had been wronged by the Wang family before. Knowing about his deeds, he took the initiative to take on the task of picking up his parents.

"Brother, from now on, your parents are my parents. I bought them a villa..."

Seeing that Li Mo was about to decline, Wang Lei reached out to stop him.

"If you're a true brother, take it. Besides, I didn't buy it for you. Go back and visit your parents when you have time; they miss you a lot."

Having already said everything the other person had to say, Li Mo could only accept their kindness. He would try to make it up to them in other ways when the opportunity arose.

Three days later, Li Mo finished handling all the affairs at the research institute. Returning to his parents' current residence, he realized just how generous the other party had been. A villa, a car, food, clothing, and lodging—they had covered almost everything.

As soon as Li Mo arrived home, the other party came. They brought many tonics and various precious flowers and herbs.

When Li Mo saw it, Wang Lei was directing the servants to move things.

Li's mother stood to the side, pointing and criticizing everything.

1. He bossed Wang Lei around, showing absolutely no respect. The others were used to this, as if they had seen it all before.

Li Mo pulled his mother behind him, apologetic smile on his lips. He didn't even know how he managed to smile; he had never felt so embarrassed in his life.

“Mr. Fang, I’m sorry, my mother has a bad temper. Also, your gift is too expensive, we can’t accept it.”

Hearing Li Mo say that, Li's mother almost poked two holes in him with her eyes. She tugged hard at his sleeve from behind in protest.

"You brat, what are you saying? Someone brings things up here, how can you refuse? You've really got guts, looking down on such a small thing."

Wang Lei seemed to have a very good temper. When he saw Li Mo, he warmly shook hands with him. When Li's mother was mentioned, he just smiled and moved on.

He smiled at Li's mother and said, "I really like your mother's personality—straightforward, honest, and unpretentious. It's a pity my mother has passed away; otherwise, the two of them would definitely have gotten along well."

Wang Lei became somewhat sentimental at this point. However, he quickly broke into a bright smile, showing that he was very good at adjusting his mood.

Li's mother thought disdainfully, "What's all this acting? It's so fake! You want me to chat with dead people? Forget it, I want to live a few more years."

“Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, if you don’t mind, I’ll consider this place my home from now on. Please feel free to ask if you need anything. I have some assets under my name.”

When the topic turned to such a heavy subject, Li Mo was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to offer a few dry words of comfort, the other person unexpectedly adjusted on their own.

What a kind and understanding little angel!

Li Mo felt very comfortable chatting with this person. There was no need to deliberately find topics; they could just chat casually, and half an hour would pass by.

When Wang Lei got up to say goodbye, the two had already become close friends who could talk about anything.
