The Master's Mask Unveiled Again-Chapter 359 - 358 Why is Grandpa Mo wearing Pinru’s clothes?
Chapter 359 -358 Why is Grandpa Mo wearing Pinru’s clothes?
Mo Si did not understand Master Mo’s current thoughts, but watching the heir of the Xiao Family serve a young girl with such patience and attention to detail, he thought it all very fantastical.
What was even more fantastical was that the young girl accepted it all with a light and breezy attitude.
Is that reasonable?
Is that normal?
Could she possibly be unaware of Master Mo’s identity?
No one could give him an answer, and he just stood there, as if struck by lightning, watching Master Mo across the room with a completely different expression on his face.
This time, he finally understood how Big Brother Mo Nie must have felt; anyone would struggle to accept this situation.
But fortunately, Big Brother Mo Nie had set a wrong example for him, and the person involved now deeply regretted it in F Continent. Therefore, he smartly maintained a smile, simply watching from the sidelines.
Xiao Qimo was oblivious to what his subordinate was thinking, as he took out the last dish from the meal box, releasing yet another wave of rich and delicious aroma.
Lu Mian’s eyes had not strayed from that meal box.
In the simple white dish lay plump and perfectly sealed dumplings still steaming with heat. The dumplings were round and plump, with delicate and smooth edges, and through the translucent dough, one could almost see the filling inside.
Lu Mian licked her lips again.
Xiao Qimo smiled politely, concealing a sense of triumph behind his gold-rimmed glasses. His attractive fingers served the dish in front of her and deftly picked up a dumpling with chopsticks, blowing on it gently twice.
“It shouldn’t be too hot,” he passed it over naturally.
Lu Mian hesitated for a moment when the dumpling was presented to her.
This didn’t quite feel right, it was akin to a father doting on his little daughter.
Having few memories of being fed since she was little, and being independent by nature, she wasn’t accustomed to this. Just as she was about to say she could pick it up herself, her mouth had barely opened when the dumpling was already at her lips, and she bit into it instinctively.
Her pearly teeth captured the dumpling and brought it into her mouth where, after chewing, the rich and delicious flavor of shrimp filling filled her mouth.
She curved her lips into a smile, the picture of satisfaction.
Mo Si continued to be petrified: Why was Master Mo wearing Pinru’s clothes?
If circumstances permitted, he would have loved to snap a photo and send it to Mo Nie to show him what he was missing out on…
Xiao Qimo, with a deep and secretive gaze, was quietly pleased with himself for having fed Lu Mian a bite, “This plate of dumplings is called ‘Happiness for the Whole Family’, it has all kinds of fillings, each one different. Do you want to try them all?”
The name ‘Happiness for the Whole Family’ sounded nice, and he emphasized it again for emphasis.
Lu Mian did not catch his hint, and decided to be sensible about it, “This was brought for you by someone from your family.”
Mo Si silently nodded in agreement, yes, indeed, the person had hurried over with it.
But this same Master Mo, who had rushed to order the handmade delicacies from his mother, now smiled with a calm and collected demeanor.
“It’s alright, if I want to eat, I’ll eat when I get home.”
“Ah…”
Sure enough, Lu Mian’s eyes flashed with even more envy.
Xiao Qimo adjusted his glasses, leaning back on the sofa and deepening the wisdom and cunning hiding in his gaze.
Mo Si: So, is their family’s Master Mo pursuing this young girl???
Ah, it seems Jinjing is really about to be stirred up…
Lu Mian ate a few more dumplings, when the sound of a doorbell came from the entrance.
Mo Si dashed to the door like the wind, as if he had been unsealed, and upon seeing Ye Jinwen’s baby-faced appearance, he greeted warmly, “Young Master Ye.”
Ye Jinwen exclaimed, “Yo, Xiaosi, it’s you!”
As he spoke, he bustled in, “You came just in time, have you eaten? I just brought takeout back—”
Before he could finish, Ye Jinwen had already walked into the living room, his gaze falling on the coffee table, and the smile on his face began to crumble.
That familiar aroma, he didn’t even need to taste it to know it was Aunt Xiao’s cooking!
He toiled all day, and when he got back, he even brought takeout for them, only to find these two showing off their love, flaunting their affection, eating! All! Alone!
He glanced at the takeout in his hand, and suddenly the chicken leg wasn’t appetizing anymore.
Mo Si: Seeing Ye Jinwen not doing so well either, he felt much more balanced inside.
“Seventh Bro…” Ye Jinwen craved Madam Xiao’s cooking, having often gone to the Xiao Family to eat, his favorite being the dishes made by Madam Xiao. But Madam Xiao cooked only occasionally, and he could only eat it when he was exceptionally lucky.
But now, Lu Mian, still in Wucheng, was already enjoying Aunt Xiao’s cooking from a thousand miles away!
It really infuriated him, this single dog.
Lu Mian, on the other hand, didn’t have the habit of eating alone and pushed the plate towards the center of the coffee table, glancing at Xiao Qimo as if seeking his opinion.
Xiao Qimo maintained his silence, his eyes sweeping over Ye Jinwen and Mo Si.

Ye Jinwen understood, repeatedly waving his hands off: “No need, no need, I’ve bought takeout, it would be a waste not to eat it. Xiaosi, come eat with me.”
“Okay…”
The two headed to the dining table with heavy steps to eat.
Xiao Qimo ignored them and patiently helped Lu Mian pick up a dumpling.
At the dining table.
Ye Jinwen pouted and reminded, “Mo Si, have you memorized Lu Mian’s face? Burn it into your memory. In the future, you’d better cross Seventh Bro than cross her.”
Just like Mo Nie, Mo Si was genuinely shocked, but he was always lively, munching away as he pried into the gossip about Lord Mo and Lu Mian during this time, and Ye Jinwen patiently enlightened him.
In the end, Mo Si concluded: Mo Nie did not leave in vain!
After eating, Xiao Qimo took Lu Mian to the study.
The video restoration was at its final key stage and required Xiao Qimo’s personal involvement. She came over tonight just to check the final results. Once the video became public, Gu Jingyi’s case would be easily solved.
However, Lu Mian’s own investigations had also found no other suspicious persons around Gu Jingyi recently.
Either she came to Wucheng alone, or those people were hiding even deeper, beyond their current detection.
But as long as she was still here, those people would eventually show up.
It was just a matter of time.
Ye Jinwen, having a rare moment of leisure, finally had time to pull out his phone after dinner to play a round of the game.
Mo Si also had some free time, hugging his phone while watching short videos.
Hearing the same sound again and again, Ye Jinwen got annoyed and asked curiously, “Xiaosi, what are you watching that has you replaying the same video over and over? What’s so interesting about it?”
“Of course it’s interesting!” Mo Si quickly brought his phone closer to him, “Ye Jinwen, you don’t know, Lord Mo and I ran into a racing prodigy in Hong City during a business trip, who managed to make a taxi drive like a sports car. Super cool!”
“Oh wow.” Ye Jinwen glanced at the video curiously, expecting something amateurish, but after watching it, he stroked his chin and mused, “Something’s not right.”
“Ye Jinwen, what’s not right?”
Ye Jinwen rolled his eyes, “I damn well watched it in the wrong posture; I should be kneeling down to watch this!”
He slapped his thigh as he spoke, then hurriedly urged, “Quick, send me the video; I want Little Mianmian to broaden her horizons too!”
