《The Side Character’s Hidden Boss!》The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Qin Xuan looked at Mo Li's clean and beautiful face. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes just now, he wouldn't have been able to believe it. The girl was so young but she was so skilled. If he had to describe what he saw with one word, it would be 'experienced'.
During the autopsy, the 3 doctors were stunned. Mo Li's performance was so stable it was not hard to believe she had been doing this for decades. She was orderly and calm, she did have the capability to lead them.
They were being too shallow for believing Mo Li was there due to her family's connection. Qin Xuan wanted to apologize for his rude remarks but ultimately he was older than Mo Li, these words... were hard to vocalize!
Damn it, you're a man! It won't kill you to apologize, just do it! Seeing that Mo Li was about to turn around and leave, Qin Xuan hurriedly pulled on her arm. "Please don't take what we said to heart. We were... being prejudiced and unfair. That was rude of us. Please forgive us."
Mo Li was clearly made comfortable by the hand contact but she didn't want to offend the man further since he had already apologized. "Okay... But can you let..." Before Mo Li could finish her sentence, Quan Yu yanked the man off with a dark expression. "There's no need to be so grabby if you're only apologizing!"
Startled by Quan Yu's presence, Qin Xuan quickly pulled his hands back and then he stammered, "Please, please forgive us... We should be in more contact in the future. If there's any progress here, we'll notify you. Please share your insight with us if you can." It was a simple request but Qin Xuan stammered through it like he was saying something shameful.

"She won't be discussing anything with any of you." Quan Yu grabbed the coroner's report and led Mo Li out from the room. He assigned Ah Si to drive Mo Li home and then Quan Yu left in a hurry. He didn't explain much else to Mo Li.
When Mo Li reached home, like usual, Elder Mo was still sitting in the living room. He was reading on some business articles. When he saw Mo Li, he stood up and silently retreated to his bedroom.
Mo Li called after him, "Grandpa, I'm sorry for coming home late."
Elder Mo nodded soundlessly.
Mo Li then turned to the kitchen and started to prepare her dinner. Half an hour later, Mo Yu smelled something delicious coming from the kitchen. Walking downstairs, he spotted Mo Li in the kitchen. She was holding a large plate of savory crepes.
The crepe itself was made from onion and egg, and then the crepe was slathered with a thin layer of red bean. After that, Mo Li added a layer of bacon before she rolled up the crepe and cut them into equal lengths. Just the sight of them made Mo Yu's stomach growl.
Mo Yu slunk into the kitchen. He was about to ask her what she was doing when Mo Li picked out two large grapes from the fruit basket.
She took a small knife from the rack and started fiddling with the grapes. Mo Yu had no idea what Mo Li was doing. Even when Mo Yu reached his stealthy hands towards the savory crepe, Mo Li didn't smack his hand away.
Since when did she become such a good cook? The red bean was sweet and the bacon was savory... The sheet of egg crepe was fluffy and soft. Mo Yu had no problem finishing the whole plate if not for the fear of being beaten by Mo Li!
Mo Yu sneaked at glance at Mo Li. He glimpsed her fair neck and her elf-like ears. Hmm, I'll have to do my best to protect Mo Li from the other men!
With that in mind, Mo Yu finally asked, "What are you doing?"
