Chapter 17: You Understand Me Very Well

While Mo Lisi was at home, he kept thinking about Tong Jiumo’s compliments on Tong Lele.
Thus, to impress his mother when she was back, Mo Lisi called Tong Lele.
Not long after, Tong Lele answered the call. “Hey, Mo Lisi, have you confessed the truth to my mommy, such that she can fetch me back?”
“Nope, I am Mo Lisi. Mommy has left the door and will be back later. I just want to ask, what kind of food do you usually prepare while waiting for mommy to come home? I want to learn it.”
Mo Lisi stood in front of the fridge and looked at the ingredients, yet unsure of how he should start.
“Can’t you cook it yourself?” Tong Lele lay on Mo Lisi’s big bed and crossed his legs.
Even if Mo Lisi did not say anything, Tong Lele knew what was on Mo Lisi’s mind.
“It was because I don’t know how to cook, that’s why I asked you. I am sure you wouldn’t want me to ruin your image as well, would you? I heard from mommy that you are a great helper at home. I don’t even know anything, so I will have to wait for mommy to come home to cook dinner for me. I am sure you would not want yourself to have such a lazy image.” Mo Lisi chuckled secretively.
“Of course not! If you dare to destroy mommy’s image of me, I… I will…” said Tong Lele as he looked around the house before setting his eyes on the television, which was showing a dog peeing beside a tree.
An idea popped up in Tong Lele’s head, and he said,” I will pee everywhere in your house. Besides, you are the one losing face, not me.”
He was really thick-skinned.
“If you are going to act like this, I will not switch places with you anymore, and you can continue to be Mo Lisi. Besides, they can’t differentiate between us,” said Mo Lisi nonchalantly.
“Hey! Mo Lisi! You are very scheming!” said Tong Lele in a displeased tone.
“You too. You didn’t want to teach me how to cook just now, isn’t it because you want me to get exposed so we can switch back?” said Mo Lisi while smiling. His usual cold eyes had a warm look to it.
“You understand me very well!” Tong Lele’s eyes lit up.
This was the first time he had met a child as smart as him.
This was also the first time he had met a child of this age and was able to understand his thinking!
Mo Lisi took a look at the clock and said softly, “Alright, mommy is coming home soon. What do you think I should make for mommy?”
“For someone who lives luxuriously and even has a personal chef, can you even cook?” asked Tong Lele in a doubtful tone.
“Of course, I can learn things fast. As long as you say it, I can cook it accordingly,” replied Mo Lisi.
“Alright…” Tong Lele did not want to make things difficult for Mo Lisi. Neither did he want to starve his mother. Thus, he agreed and told his secret recipes over the phone.
“Wow, I didn’t know I was a cooking talent! This is too delicious! Lele, allow me to tell you, my food is very delicious!” exclaimed Mo Lisi excitedly.
“Hmph! This is all because of me, your cooking master! I have told you the recipes. You better find a way to tell my mommy that her son is being bullied in someone else’s house and tell her to quickly take me home.” Tong Lele aspirated.
“And your house is not a castle at all, it is a cage! I have tried to escape so many times, but every time I get caught! I even had schooling in the castle! This is too frustrating!”
Tong Lele hated it!
“That’s right, you can continue to be Mo Lisi. The school I go to is not a school that anyone can go to. Since I am being so gracious, just accept it!” said Mo Lisi graciously.
It was like he didn’t mind giving his father to somebody else.
However, to be honest, as long as he could become Tong Jiumo’s son, he had rather not have this father!
‘Thank you, God, for giving me this chance!’
In the Mo family, Mo Lisi had to study different courses every day.
He could only go out to have a breather once a month.
This was no different from being in jail.
“Mo Lisi, I don’t want to be you! Besides, if you don’t switch back, you will regret it!”
Tong Lele laughed eerily.
