"Definitely some sweet nothings from the little sister-in-law," Zhao Xiangqian said confidently. Following recent events, Zhao Xiangqian had become more at ease with them, as Brother Mo, usually stoic, only showed such warmth when it came to matters involving the little sister-in-law.
No, to be exact, only when it involved the little sister-in-law, would he smile.
Following Brother Mo for so many years, this was the first time he had ever seen Brother Mo smile.
"Do you guys even know? Little sister-in-law sent Mo Siyu a photograph," Li Wei said with the mien of an insider.
Instantly, everyone’s interest was piqued. Zhao Xiangqian and a few others had seen what Tang Yue looked like, but many in the military camp hadn’t, and everyone was extremely curious about her.
Li Wei, Zhao Xiangqian, and others began to describe Tang Yue’s appearance, and upon hearing their descriptions, someone commented, "Isn’t that just like a fairy descending to earth?"
"Exactly, if she weren’t akin to a fairy descending to earth, do you think Brother Mo would even spare her a glance?" Li Wei agreed, and even Zhao Xiangqian accepted this statement.
Tang Yue had the type of beauty that grew on you, naturally pretty, yet the more you looked, the prettier she seemed, and she had an aura about her, truly like that of a fairy descending to earth.
From one person to ten, then from ten to a hundred, even though not everyone believed such an otherworldly beauty could exist on this earth, it was certain that Brother Mo’s girl had to be attractive.
But of course, there were those who were sour about it, thinking they were exaggerating. If she were truly like a fairy, why wouldn’t she be brought here?
Moreover, everyone clamored to see Tang Yue’s photograph but Mo Siyu refused, treasuring it as if it were a hidden treasure.
Gradually, the rumors changed direction, insinuating that Mo Siyu’s significant other was actually quite ordinary-looking, just overly praised by Li Wei and others. Slowly, the rumors became suspicious.
When Mo Siyu heard these rumors, he did not refute them, and so, the rumors spread even more fiercely.
By the time Li Wei and the others tried to clarify, it was already too late to correct the rumor, instead making it seem even more credible.
"I’m so angry," Li Wei said, grinding his teeth,
Zhao Xiangqian rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight, saying, "Are they blind? With the little sister-in-law’s looks, she outshines them by miles. To say the little sister-in-law is ordinary, they must be blind to beauty."
"Brother Mo, just show everyone the photograph of the little sister-in-law, that way there will be no more misunderstandings," Yan Dong felt this could not continue.
"People have their own mouths; even if I show them the photograph, do you think they’d believe it without seeing the real person?" Mo Siyu gave them a sideways glance. These rumors were started by a staff member’s family, and his subordinates always protected him.
He added, "Besides, I like Xiao Yue, and that’s all that matters. What’s it to them?" Mo Siyu wished he could hide Tang Yue away, allowing only himself to see her, let alone deliberately bring her out for everyone else.
"So, we just let the rumors spread?" Li Wei worried, "Won’t the little sister-in-law dislike it here if this keeps up?"
"You’re overthinking it." Mo Siyu gave him a deep, meaningful look.
Once Xiao Yue arrives at the motor pool, the faces of those family members who have spread the rumors will be slapped by their own words.
As for whether Xiao Yue would like the place, with him being here, she would be too eager to come, how could she possibly dislike it?
Taking advantage of the time before departure, Mo Siyu finally wrote another letter to Tang Yue.
