3361 Don’t Have Self-respect?

Li Mochen felt a sense of frustration since he couldn’t do anything. He also felt that Leng Xiaoyao was heartless. He had come all the way to see her, but they had to part ways after spending only a short time together.

“Let me send you home,” Li Mochen said, knowing that what happened tonight had indeed caused her trouble, so he didn’t stop her from leaving.

“I drove here myself. I can go back on my own. It’s too much trouble for you to come with me and then have to take a taxi back.” Leng Xiaoyao refused. She didn’t want Li Mochen to waste so much time on the road.

“It’s not a bother,” Li Mochen said firmly. Leng Xiaoyao didn’t turn him down again and let him go back with her.

“When will you go home?” Leng Xiaoyao asked.

“I just arrived. Why would you ask me about leaving so quickly? It hurts,” Li Mochen said, feeling sad.

“Well, I need to know so that I can arrange my schedule!” Leng Xiaoyao was a bit speechless. She felt that Li Mochen had changed somehow. He had become somewhat childish. He was no longer aloof.

“I should be staying until the day after tomorrow!” Li Mochen said.

“Then I’ll go out to see you around 10 am tomorrow. We can go to my company,” Leng Xiaoyao said.

“No problem,” said Li Mochen.

When they arrived outside the community, Li Mochen got out of the car and took a taxi back on his own.

Watching Li Mochen go back alone, Leng Xiaoyao felt sad. His back seemed a bit lonely.

As soon as Leng Xiaoyao got home, she cried to Leng Changyuan.

“Grandpa, let me tell you what, Elder Zhang is so annoying. I was having dinner with friends today. Mr. Li came to see me for something, but because my friends were there, it wasn’t convenient to talk about it. After we finished eating and left our friends, Mr. Li and I went to the park to talk about business. He wanted to buy some jade for his family’s elders as gifts and we ran into Elder Zhang. He came over and asked if Mr. Li was my boyfriend, then said that I was too young to date. I respected him as an elder and responded politely that Mr. Li was just a friend and we were discussing business, but Elder Zhang didn’t believe me and said that I was amoral. It really made me angry.”

“What? Is Elder Zhang too bored or something? How dare he slander my granddaughter…” Hearing Leng Xiaoyao’s words, Leng Changyuan was also quite angry.

Leng Xiaoyao said that she and Li Mochen were just friends. Leng Changyuan didn’t doubt it. He also didn’t think that there was anything inappropriate about them walking in the park.

If there really was something inappropriate going on or they were doing something they didn’t want others to see, why wouldn’t they go further away? Why would they walk around in the park so openly?

Especially since Leng Xiaoyao said that Li Mochen came to see her about buying jade, he became even more convinced of her words.

“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. If grandpa meets Elder Zhang, I’ll definitely scold him for you…” Seeing Leng Xiaoyao so aggrieved, Leng Changyuan was mad. He was even more furious at Elder Zhang.

“Okay!” Leng Xiaoyao responded, as if she had just calmed down.

In fact, she didn’t care what Elder Zhang said outside. She only cared about Leng Changyuan’s feelings and face.

Although she knew that if she told Leng Changyuan these things, he would get angry, if she didn’t say it, Leng Changyuan would misunderstand that she was really the kind of person Elder Zhang said and would become even angrier.

After returning to her room early, Leng Xiaoyao chatted with Li Mochen on the phone.

The next morning, after having breakfast, Leng Changyuan went out for a walk.

Although he often went out for a walk with a group of familiar old people to play chess and chat after breakfast, today he went out mainly to find Elder Zhang.

He went to the elderly activity center in the community and saw Elder Zhang, who was talking about Leng Xiaoyao.

“Aren’t you all praising Elder Leng’s granddaughter? I saw her and a man taking a walk in the park last night! She’s so young and already dating, tsk tsk! What’s the use of studying well? She doesn’t even have self-respect?” Elder Zhang said maliciously. Thinking of how Leng Xiaoyao had embarrassed him yesterday, he was filled with anger.

Everyone knew what kind of person Elder Zhang was, so they didn’t take his words to heart.

However, there were still a few people who listened to him and joined in the contempt. After all, not everyone had a positive attitude towards other people’s excellence.

Their grandchildren were about the same age. Currently, what they could show off was basically their academic achievements. At first, their grandchildren’s grades were good enough to show off, but after Leng Xiaoyao’s grades became better than theirs, they couldn’t show off anymore.

So, although some people praised her, there were also some who were jealous.

When Leng Changyuan heard Elder Zhang’s words, he was so angry that he almost lost his breath. He shouted at him, “Elder Zhang, what nonsense are you spouting here! What evidence do you have to prove that they are dating? Mr. Li simply came to see Xiaoyao to deal with something. How come it became so dirty in your mouth! How dirty is your mind that you see everything as dirty!”

“Humph! What can a student have to discuss seriously?” Elder Zhang snorted. He wasn’t afraid when he saw Leng Changyuan.

Many people agreed with him.

“How can students not have anything important to discuss? My granddaughter has many skills. She knows more than your stupid grandchildren who can’t even study well!” Leng Changyuan glared at him. If it were the previous Leng Xiaoyao, he wouldn’t have doubted Elder Zhang’s words, but now he had no doubt about what Leng Xiaoyao said. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You…” Elder Zhang was too mad to breathe normally. Leng Changyuan’s words hit him badly. “What serious business they can talk about? Tell us!”

“Why should I tell you what they were talking about? How could you spread rumors before knowing anything? Don’t you know slander is a crime?” said Leng Changyuan.

“You…” Elder Zhang was struck dumb. He knew that slander was a crime, but he felt that Leng Xiaoyao had no self-respect.

“And do you know who Mr. Li is? He appeared at the Mo family’s banquet. Even Master Mo treated him respectfully! He was accompanied by the young master of the Xiao family from Hai City! Are you trying to cause trouble for your own family by making up rumors about him?” Leng Changyuan sneered and looked down on Elder Zhang.

“What?”

Hearing that, everyone was surprised.

Some of them had also gone to the Mo family’s banquet and naturally knew who Mr. Li was. Even those who didn’t go knew about it.
