"Bro, thank you."

Sitting on a chair outside the hospital room, Mo Xiaochuan quietly thanked Mo Zhen. If Mo Zhen hadn't been there, he really wouldn't have known how to handle the situation.

Adam shrugged beside them. "What about me?"

He was the one who had rushed to carry him over on his back, huffing and puffing all the way.

Mo Xiaochuan hurriedly nodded. "Thank you too, Adam!"

Only then did Adam nod in satisfaction.

Mo Zhen smiled beside them. Just then, he received a message from Mo Chou.

Mo Chou: "I'll be there soon."

Meanwhile.

At the Reynolds Group:

When Old Reynolds learned that his son had been injured at school, he immediately dropped his work and flew to the school from Liberty City.

In Taiping Prefecture, the Reynolds Group was a high-tech power company focused on developing and reusing clean energy.

After the turn of the century, they had chanced upon a major breakthrough in nuclear power technology and established a firm foothold. It was no exaggeration to call them the power king of Taiping Prefecture.

On the plane, Old Reynolds had already obtained the surveillance footage of the incident. After discovering that his own son had been the first to shove someone, he was disappointed in him.

He slammed the tablet in his hand onto the table. "That boy never gives me a moment's peace!"

"How is he now?"

"Sir, the young master's life is not in danger. He only broke two ribs, and they've already been treated at the school hospital."

Old Reynolds calmed himself and asked his secretary, "What about the other child?"

The secretary consulted the file. "Mo Xiaochuan, from a single-parent family. His father, Mo Chou, is a professor of geology who settled in Tianhe years ago through Taiping Prefecture's talent recruitment program. There are five children in the family."

Old Reynolds nodded, took the cigar his assistant offered him, and had a puff. He closed his eyes and said unhurriedly:

"Have them apologize to each other later. If the other party won't accept it, give them some money in private as compensation, and that will be the end of it. Don't let it turn into a big affair."

He had sent Little Reynolds to Tianhe so he could receive a better education, not so he could hang around with bad company, popping pills and smoking marijuana every day.

So he didn't want the incident to blow up and damage Little Reynolds's reputation and standing. After all, his son had been the one to start it.

After the private plane landed, Old Reynolds hurried to the school hospital. By then, it was already seven in the evening.

It might have been called a school hospital, but as one of the most prestigious schools in Taiping Prefecture, Tianhe International High School even had a separate building for it.

It was fully equipped with expensive medical equipment and attending physicians.

After all, the vast majority of students here were the children of the wealthy and influential. They all thought alike: no matter who else had to go without, their children shouldn't have to suffer.

As Leinuo and his secretary took the elevator, a man with a pencil mustache got in with them.

The man was tall and solidly built without looking bulky, but he carried himself with an air of refinement and ease that set him apart from ordinary people.

When they reached the hospital room together, Leinuo asked in surprise, "Sir, are you Mo Xiaochuan's parent?"

Mo Chou was also a little surprised. He nodded. "Yes, I'm Mo Chou. Are you Green Reynolds's father?"

"That's right. People usually call me Old Reynolds."

Old Reynolds immediately smiled and offered Mo Chou his hand.

The two shook hands, and the atmosphere was very cordial.

Mo Chou spoke first. "I'm sorry, Mr. Leinuo. My child failed to control his strength."

Old Reynolds shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, no. I'm the one who failed to raise my son properly. Your boy didn't mean to do it."

"They're boys. How could they play ball without having a disagreement? A little shoving is perfectly normal."

Mo Chou smiled. The man was much easier to talk to than he had expected. "Mr. Leinuo, you're a good father."

"Don't say that. We're both fathers, and it's not easy for either of us. We understand each other, that's all." As Old Reynolds spoke, he looked at Mo Xiaochuan and Mo Zhen behind Mo Chou.

"May I ask which of you is Mo Xiaochuan?"

Mo Xiaochuan immediately rose to his feet, feeling nervous. "I am, Mr. Leinuo. I'm very sorry. I didn't control my strength."

Old Reynolds walked over and patted him on the shoulder with a smile. "Don't worry, young man. I won't blame you."

"Like I just said, it's perfectly normal for boys to have a little disagreement."

Mo Xiaochuan breathed a sigh of relief. "You're a very good man, Mr. Leinuo."

Just then, the school doctor came to inform them that Green Reynolds had woken up, so Old Reynolds led the way into the room.

"Father!"

When Green Reynolds saw Old Reynolds, he immediately sat up. Grimacing, he cried out aggrievedly, "I-I broke two ribs!"

Old Reynolds sighed, walked over, and tapped him on the head. "You never give me a moment's peace."

"Tell me yourself. Weren't you the one who started it?"

Green Reynolds looked embarrassed, but eventually nodded. "I was."

"Then that settles it. What do you have to be angry about? We Reynolds Family take responsibility for what we do. When you go out, you'll apologize to him first." Old Reynolds's tone was stern.

Hearing this, Glenn Reynolds recalled what his father had taught him since childhood and felt a little ashamed.

Their family had always followed the principles of a knightly education and enforced strict rules, so Green Reynolds quickly realized he had been in the wrong.

Mo Xiaochuan and the others outside didn't know what they had said.

In any case, when Green Reynolds came out in a wheelchair, he offered Mo Xiaochuan his hand. "Sorry, Mo. I was the one who pushed you first."

Mo Xiaochuan hurriedly shook his hand. "I'm sorry too, Green. I didn't control my temper."

Old Reynolds smoothed things over from the side. "All right, all right. You're both good kids. As long as the misunderstanding is cleared up, that's what matters. I'm sure you'll still be good friends from now on."

And so, the matter was settled peacefully. At least neither side had any complaints.

Only then did Adam say goodbye to Mo Zhen and the others and leave.

Mo Xiaochuan and his companions headed home as well.

Bai Xiaoxiao had been waiting at home, worried sick. When she saw them return, she hurried over and asked, "Nothing happened, did it?"

Mo Zhen shook his head. "It wasn't a big problem. The Reynolds family's young master was surprisingly reasonable."

Come to think of it, in a place like Taiping Prefecture, where superhumans were everywhere, the Reynolds Family had managed to put their company on the throne as the power king. They were clearly not the sort of upstarts who looked down on everyone.

Mo Chou spoke up from the side.

"Now that it's over, let's all go out for a meal later."

He wanted to take the opportunity to comfort Mo Xiaochuan.

And so, the family went to the garage, got into Mo Chou's old Dodge Charger, and headed for the commercial street in Jinghai District.

They found a Sichuan fish restaurant and got a private room.

During the meal, Bai Xiaoxiao held her phone and chatted with Saionji Kirika on the other end.

Wuhua: "Xiaoxiao, are you free later?"

Bai Xiaoxiao: "Yes. I'm eating at a fish restaurant with my brothers and the others. I should be able to come out later."

Wuhua immediately told her about Hell, hoping she would go with her to Whale Sea Park and learn how to get stronger from Senior Hell.

Bai Xiaoxiao was immediately excited. "Senior Hell is actually willing to be our instructor? I'll definitely come!"

Holding her phone, she couldn't help recalling the gray girl's retreating figure.

Though she spoke in an icy tone, she was a good person. She really had helped them defeat the witch and save their friend.
