Chapter 1413: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (86)
Li Shu stood where she was, listening to Shi Nianyao’s story.
She turned pale.
She knew that the girl had no reason to lie.
She stared at Shi Nianyao as the girl narrowed her eyes and said with a frosty laugh, “Do you even know why Mo Xicheng hit Mo Zhi? Because if he hadn’t, then Mo Zhi wouldn’t have gotten away as lightly as he has now. My elder brother has just left the hospital because Mo Xicheng convinced him that he’d handle the matter. He did so that my brother would go home for now and not find trouble with the Mo family.”
Then she shifted her gaze towards Li Shu and said, “You think you’re disappointed with him? I want to tell you, Auntie Li Shu, my mom grew up with you and you are best friends. Mom’s always praised you and made you out to be a fair and reasonable person, she told me you’re a woman of substance. But today I’m thoroughly disappointed in you!”
Li Shu froze at the words “thoroughly disappointed.”
She had never thought that the truth would turn out to be this.
She looked at Shi Nianyao and suddenly clenched her fists tightly, as she turned towards Mo Xicheng.
Then she saw a look of cold indifference in his expression.
In the past, if there was anyone in the Mo family for whom Mo Xicheng had had any semblance of fondness, if there was anyone he hadn’t seen as an enemy, it would have been her.
But now her words had turned his heart cold.
She stood there, in that instant feeling a great urge to say something. “I- I didn’t know. I-”
But in the end, she could not continue.
Could she use the reason of not having known the truth as a good enough excuse to hurt Mo Xicheng?
Of course not.
Li Shu was a person of great logic and clear-thinking.
She fell silent, suddenly feeling that this time, whatever bit of mutual affection they had for each other would have been destroyed.
Her lips quivered as she tried to speak, but no words came.
At this point, Yao Lili, who had kept quiet until now, suddenly dashed forward, pointing at Mo Xicheng and berating him, “Mo Xicheng, now I understand. I finally see your scheme! I can’t believe you’re trying to accuse the victim. Say it, are you trying to leverage the Mo family to cause Mo Zhi’s downfall?”
These words stunned everyone in the room as they turned to look at the woman.
Yao Lili lowered her head and started to cry. “I’m your mother, why would I put your girlfriend into another man’s bedroom? You were the one who asked me to trick Shi Nianyao into going to the hospital, so that you could have her and when that happened, you could bring forward your wedding plans. I’ve done as you told me, so how did she end up in Mo Zhi’s room? And furthermore, you turned up to rescue her before he had even done anything?!”
“Say it, was that your scheme? You made sure that Mo Zhi offended the Shi family so that the Shi family would help you to take revenge on Mo Zhi.”
She had turned the whole story around with those words.
Shi Nianyao stared at Yao Lili in disbelief. She could not have imagined a person could be this shameless.
All of a sudden, she was dumbfounded.
On the other hand, Mo Hai’s eyes lit up at this possibility and he stepped forward, pointing at Mo Xicheng and rebuking the man, “Yes, I’m sure that’s it! You dishonorable son. You have been a scheming person since young! Ms. Shi, don’t be fooled by him.”
