Chapter 1446: He Is My Son (19)
Yao Lili looked at the large pot of chicken soup and in her mind, she replayed the horror of the burning sensation from that last mouthful. She was terrified beyond words.
But lifting her head and seeing Lu Shu’s uncompromising expression, she bit her lip at once.
This woman was making things difficult, probably because she didn’t want her to move in.
Well, Yao Lili wasn’t going to fall into that trap.
At this thought, she picked up the thermos and poured the soup into the bowl. Raising the bowl to her mouth, she downed it in a big gulp.
After drinking it, she felt her throat swelling painfully from the burn.
But even then, she looked at Li Shu and said, “Here, I’ve finished the soup.”
Li Shu looked at her with a complex expression.
Finished the soup.
She had only done this once and she had made it look as though it was a huge deal. Then what about Mo Xicheng, who had grown up doing this?
She suddenly recalled how Yao Lili had used to complain about the young Mo Xicheng.
“This child is a picky eater and doesn’t eat much.”
“When it’s time to eat, he doesn’t sit quietly and instead makes a fuss. Look at how skinny he is.”
“This child is really disobedient, not half as well-behaved as Master Mo Zhi. This boy is one mischievous boy.”
And so on.
One comment after another, they were all etched clearly in Li Shu’s mind. She clenched her jaw, feeling as though a knife was plunged and twisted into her heart. Her eyes reddened and she quickly lowered her head, as large tear drops formed and rolled down her cheeks.
She tried hard to curb her emotions but it was impossible.
Meanwhile, Mo Xicheng and Shi Nianyao watched, completely puzzled by this behavior and yet unsure of what to do.
Only Yao Lili looked at the woman with a stunned expression.
Was this woman going to go back on her word?
As soon as this thought struck her, she saw Li Shu lifting her head. The woman looked at her and said, “Alright, once I get home, I will send people over to help you pack. You can move in to stay in my home.”
Yao Lili’s eyes lit up immediately and was about to nod when Mo Xicheng interrupted and said, “There’s no need for that.”
Yao Lili froze and snapped her head around, asking, “What did you just say?”
Mo Xicheng stepped forward, looked at Li Shu steadily and said, “My mom will not move into your home.”
Mo Hai and Li Shu were a married couple. If Yao Lili were to move in, what about Li Shu? Li Shu was the real victim here.
Look at how sadly she was crying now.
Lu Shu was a classy and elegant lady, this was about the only time he had seen her crying in the presence of others. Hence, this moment had to be a rather embarrassing moment for her.
For Mo Xicheng, this was like a slap in his face.
He had never intended to cause Li Shu any harm. He knew that his existence itself was already wrong to begin with.
But why would Yao Lili agree with Mo Xicheng?
She said sharply, “Mo Xicheng, what are you saying? Stop speaking nonsense!”
She looked at Li Shu and said, “I’m willing. I’m willing to move into your home. It’s not that I want to vie for Mo Hai with you. He only has you in his heart. I only wish to see him every day and I will be content. I really do love him.”
She lowered her head after saying these words, disgustingly pretending that her love for Mo Hai was true.
Mo Xicheng looked intently at her and said after a pause, “Between the Mo family and I, you can only choose one.”
