Chapter 1447: He Is My Son (20)
Yao Lili froze upon hearing this.
She lifted her head, looking at Mo Xicheng in disbelief. She had not expected him to say this.
Between the Mo family and him, she had to make a choice?
Even a fool would know what the choice should be.
Almost without hesitation, Yao Lili opened her mouth to say, “Mo Xicheng, you’re grown up now and I can no longer interfere with your life. But neither should you interfere with my happiness.”
Mo Xicheng narrowed his eyes and said, “Do you mean then that in the future, we will have nothing to do with each other?”
Yao Lili clenched her jaws tightly.
Of course she knew that the moment she answered affirmatively, Mo Xicheng would disregard her from then onwards and he would be with Shi Nianyao.
But was there anyone who could now stop them from being together anyway?
The two of them were like one. They might even have already slept together.
Hence, what did it matter if she tried to stop them or not?!
Conversely, moving into the Mo family home was far more attractive to her.
Hence Yao Lili nodded and said, “That’s right. Nothing to do with each other. I will no longer interfere in your life and likewise, you won’t interfere with mine.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Xicheng fell silent.
He was thoroughly disappointed with Yao Lili.
He was an adult, he had his own opinions too.
Yao Lili was obviously Mo Hai’s mistress and Mo Hai had never felt anything for her. What exactly did she want, hankering after the man like this?
Did she not realize that her behavior was really embarrassing and shameful?
But at this point, he couldn’t bring himself to say this out loud.
He did not speak, but cast his gaze down to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
Li Shu glanced at Mo Xicheng, looked at Yao Lili and then looked away for a while. Then she said, “Well then, you can come home with me directly.”
Having said this, she turned and walked out.
There was no hurry in revealing her relationship with Mo Xicheng. The most pressing matter at hand was to take back all of the Mo family’s assets.
Yao Lili nodded vigorously at this suggestion. She followed Li Shu without thinking twice.
As the two women walked away, Mo Xicheng called out, “Mom.”
Li Shu suddenly felt her heart waver, but she saw that Yao Lili had halted and turned around.
Mo Xicheng made one last struggling attempt and said, “Are you really not going to reconsider?”
Yao Lili narrowed her eyes and nodded. She said, “I know you have my interest at heart, but I will be truly happy there. Even if your father doesn’t have me in his heart, I’ll be happy so long as I get to see him every day.”
Mo Xicheng did not understand her perspective on love, but seeing that she wasn’t going to change her mind, he said, “Alright.”
With that one word, the sorrow in his heart came up against a dead end.
Yao Lili hurriedly followed Li Shu as the latter walked away.
After Yao Lili and Li Shu had left, Mo Xicheng sat down on the sofa, his melancholic expression carrying the disappointment he felt.
Yao Lili was such a selfish woman.
Did she realize that by moving into the Mo family, it would mean that if Mo Xicheng’s true identity ever got found out, it would seal his reputation as an illegitimate son.
If she lived elsewhere, at least they could claim that they had nothing to do with the Mo family. But now…
Mo Xicheng smiled bitterly.
Oh well, in any case, Yao Lili had never prioritized him.
So why take it so seriously now?

The chauffeur drove Li Shu and Yao Lili back to the Mo family home.
As the car drove through the main gate, Yao Lili’s eyes lit up with a flash of ecstasy.
