Chapter 1607: Mo Xicheng Reinstated (80)
The next remark from Mo Xicheng delivered a vicious stab to his heart. “And you know, in love, there is a contentious saying that I’d like to share with you right now.”
“What is it?”
“Sometimes, letting go is a gift.”
Mo Hai was stunned.
Mo Xicheng got onto his feet. As he walked away, he said calmly, “I’ve called you a driver, he will take you home. I’ll take my leave now.”
The young man strode past Mo Hai and headed out of the bar.
Now there was only Mo Hai left inside.
He looked at the wine glass before him in a daze. Suddenly, he laughed bitterly.
He reached out for the bottle of wine in front of him and downed everything in a gulp.
–
By the time the driver took Mo Hai home, it was almost daybreak.
Stumbling into the living room, the man caught sight of Mo Zhi sitting on the sofa, waiting for him.
He did not speak, but rather went around Mo Zhi and moved towards the master bedroom upstairs.
However before he could get far, Mo Zhi grabbed his arm.
The young man looked at his father and said, “Dad, are you really abandoning me?”
Because Mo Hai had knocked out his tooth, he now spoke with a slight lisp.
His remark was laughable, but also heart-wrenching.
Mo Hai halted and turned around. He spoke calmly without looking at Mo Zhi, “How could I still keep you here?”
Mo Zhi was shocked.
Mo Hai cast his gaze on him now.
He had nurtured and watched this young man grow from a small child—it wasn’t easy for him either. But now all those memories had been shattered.
He had used to believe that even if Mo Zhi loved to scheme against others, he would never ever do it to his own father. But that had now proven wrong.
Mo Zhi was no longer the innocent and pure little boy that he had watched grow up.
Now he found the scheming young man constantly putting him in a difficult position with Li Shu.
Mo Hai cast his gaze down at this thought.
He said calmly to the man, “Please move out tomorrow morning.”
Mo Zhi was stunned. After a pause, he started, “Dad, you’re really abandoning me?! Dad, where do I go? Where can I move to? Dad, how could you be so heartless? Dad!!”
Mo Zhi called out to him a few times, but Mo Hai did not speak. He only continued up the stairs.
As Mo Zhi stood in the living room, looking up at the second floor, he curled his fingers tightly into fists and shook with anger.
He had thought his dad loved him the most and that he could frame Li Shu.
But unexpectedly, the most important person in his heart was still Li Shu.
Mo Zhi took a few deep breaths at these thoughts and eventually brought his emotions under control. Then he turned around and walked out, towards his own apartment.
–
Mo Hai entered his bedroom upstairs. Because he had drank a lot, he fell asleep surprisingly quickly.
The moment he lay down, exhaustion completely overtook him and he slipped into a deep slumber.
He had no idea how long he had been sleeping when he was woken up by the butler’s sudden knock on the door. “Sir, Sir, something’s wrong! Something’s wrong with Young Master Mo Zhi!”
Mo Hai, now fully awake, looked at the door and inquired, “What’s wrong? Has he attempted suicide again?”
“Not that.”
Mo Hai sighed in relief and continued, “Then what is it? As long as he hasn’t killed himself, what’s the panic about?”
The butler started, but stopped again. Then finally he said, “Hurry up and come take a look at Young Master Mo Zhi! He- he- he-“
