<h4>Chapter 962: As Long As They Did Not Overdo It</h4>


    Ye Mo was almost knocked out by that statement!


    Could these siblings possibly have been his rivals in a past life?


    They always seemed to be ganging up on him!


    He struggled to find the right words but was unable to. Furiously, he pointed usingly at Liu Duo and Liu Ran with a quivering finger, then stormed off to the kitchen.


    “Sis, you rock! Brother Mo doesn’t even dare talk back to you.” Liu Ran grinned at Liu Duo like a mischievous child.


    The other men just smiled at the scene that had unfolded before them just now. It was all fun and games as long as they did not overdo it.


    Liu Duo softly pinched her brother’s fair cheek. “So why were you quarreling with Mo again? Did he really hit you?”


    “Of course not.” Liu Ran smiled like a sly fox. “He’s always giving me mean looks, always singing a different tune, and randomly making nastyebacks!”


    Ye Mo might seem like someone who was easily irritated, but he would nevery a finger on kids, especially when that kid was his young brother-inw.


    In his personal perception, his fists were only reserved for special asions, which basically meant defending against outsiders!


    “Oh, you!” Liu Duo chuckled helplessly. She was expecting something like that.


    She did not think Ye Mo would really do it, not with Ye Liu watching.


    “Ran Er, don’t make up jokes or lies like that next time! Regardless of whomever or whatever circumstances. Got it?” Liu Duo told him rather sternly.


    It might not be a serious matter, and it was probably just a harmless prank, but it had elements of a lie, and she neither advocated nor approved of it.


    Liu Ran understood that he might have gone a bit overboard, so he obediently nodded. “I understand now, Sis. I won’t do it again.”


    “Good.”


    Liu Duo really liked Liu Ran’s sensibility. She only had to tell him once and he wouldply. He was a particrly bright and level-headed kid.


    On the other side of the house, the men took the vegetables and meat they had previously bought into the kitchen.


    Aunt Li saw that Ye Mo was in a bad mood, so she asked with concern, “Mo dear, what happened? Making a face like that...”


    Ever since they had be the next best thing to a family, Aunt Li began referring to them in closer and more loving terms.


    “Other than that brat, who else?” Ye Mo replied furiously. “He told my wife on me. Said I hit him. Now I really want to!”


    “You guys were quarreling again...” Aunt Liughed at that. She had seen it enough times to guess. “Ran Er’s still a kid. He’s a little cheeky. Don’t take it to heart.”


    That’s not what I’m mad about! Ye Mo thought as he pouted. I’m not that petty. “If I had taken his word for it, I would have beat him up already.”


    “If that’s the case, then there’s nothing to be angry about.” Aunt Li smiled and changed the topic. “Mo, dear, please tell the others it’s almost time for lunch.”


    Ye Mo nodded and walked to the door. He shouted, “Lunch is ready!”


    At the table, Ye Mo did not say a word, even when Liu Duo was talking to him.


    Ye Yang did not react to that. Ye Liu let him be. Li Wazi and Ye Ling got worried about him and were ‘persuading’ him to speak. Aunt Li joined in too.


    Liu Duo and Liu Ran exchanged nces. Sis, Brother Mo seems extra petty today.
