Chapter 1808

No one had recovered from the shock. At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

“Sorry, is this Mr. Limo’s house?”

Everyone turned their heads.

The door wasn’t closed. The woman at the door placed her hand on the door and her gaze landed on it.

Perhaps because she saw so many people at once, she was slightly stunned.

Mo Xiaona.

The moment she saw Mo Xiaona, Xu Qingzhi’s heart turned cold.

It was colder than ever.

Even though they had just gotten married and Limo didn’t care about her from the start, Xu Qingzhi’s heart wasn’t as cold as it was now.

Mo Xiaona was the only one who shouldn’t have appeared in such a situation, let alone in her and Limo’s house.

...

Li Mo frowned and looked at Mo Xiaona. Although her expression and voice were still not good, she had clearly restrained herself.

“Why are you here?”

In this situation, Mo Xiaona was in a dilemma. After hesitating for a while, she could only walk in.

“I saw the news of you being hospitalized last night online. You were supposed to arrive at the hospital today, but... the hospital said that you had already been discharged... so I came over to take a look. I was a little worried about your condition...”

If Xu Qingzhi could be said to have no bottom line in front of Li Mo, then in front of Mo Xiaona, she would never allow herself to be the weak one.

Because of dignity and unwillingness.

She could allow herself to lose, but not in front of the other party.

Xu Qingzhi retracted her expression and looked at Mo Xiaona coldly.

So, how did she know the location of her and Limo’s bridal chamber?

But here, besides Li Mo, who else would tell her?

Xu Qingzhi closed her eyes gently and convinced herself that that shouldn’t be the case. Why would Limo tell Mo Xiaona about this? No matter what, he wouldn’t be able to tell her his exact address.

Chu Yi, who had been standing at the side, suddenly sneered.

The sarcasm was obvious and Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled slightly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Her anger towards Li Mo, her feelings for him, and everything she had, had suddenly turned desolate.

What was she insisting on?

Mo Xiaona had long been deeply rooted in Li Mo’s heart. In the past, she had convinced herself to give it a try, persevere, work hard, and treat Li Mo better. She had given her all and loved him sincerely. In the end, she would receive a response, even if it was just a little.

She thought that the situation had developed in an ideal direction in the past two days.

Li Mo could live under the same roof as her, and the two of them could be like an ordinary couple. In a world with only the two of them, they could interact intimately.

They were capable, or at least not repulsive.

Ordinary couples, real couples, husband and wife...

However, Li Mo had just used this word on her and Chu Yi.

As her husband, he could easily say anything that could happen between her and another man. How could she not care?

What did he take her for?

She was nothing!

If it wasn’t her but Mo Xiaona, she thought that he would never say such things.

Persistence was just her wishful thinking.

She couldn’t replace Mo Xiaona, let alone remove her from his heart.

She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Then, she looked at Li Mo. Her eyes were empty as if there was nothing in them. There was no sadness, happiness, or anger... Yet, there seemed to be everything. There were too many emotions that could not be described with words.

She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but her hand was held again. She paused and looked at Chu Yi.

“You need to calm down now. Follow me.”

She looked at Chu Yi in confusion, but Chu Yi had already dragged her out.

Li Mo frowned again. He wanted to pull Xu Qingzhi back, but Chu Yi stopped him.

“After you’ve settled your matters, you can talk to me about Qingzhi. I hope you’ll be impressed by what I said just now...”

If you hurt her and she regretted it, he would be the first to take her away.

Li Mo paused, but how could he allow Chu Yi to take Xu Qingzhi away from him?

“If you want to leave, get lost!”

At this moment, the old lady, who had been standing at the side, suddenly said, “Mr. Chu, take Qingzhi away first. We have something to settle here.”

Although Chu Yi’s words about his deep love for Qingzhi made her slightly worried,

However, if Limo couldn’t handle Mo Xiaona’s matter, she would rather Qingzhi have an outcome with Chu Yi.

After all, no woman could stand the man she loved being entangled with another woman.

If she couldn’t figure it out, she would let go. Only a fool would compromise.

Li Mo stared at Xu Qingzhi and said coldly, “Xu Qingzhi.”

Just the name alone was a strong warning.

Anyone could tell that if she really chose to leave with Chu Yi, there would be consequences that no one could predict.

But now, she really wasn’t in the mood to be the mistress of the house.

She wasn’t that magnanimous yet.

She didn’t say anything and silently broke free from Chu Yi’s hand. She said calmly, “I’m not feeling well. I’m going out to take a breather.”

With that, she turned and walked out. When she passed by Mo Xiaona, Mo Xiaona looked at her worriedly. “Qingzhi, did something happen?”

Xu Qingzhi pursed her lips with an ugly expression. “...Help yourself.”

Perhaps this sentence would have another meaning in the future... Who knew?

Her casual remark made Li Mo’s heart sink.

Just as he was about to say something, Xu Qingzhi had already walked to the door. She picked up her down jacket and walked out.

She even closed the door.

That back view gave people an inexplicable illusion of never returning.

Li Mo’s heart tightened. Just as he was about to chase after her, Mo Xiaona suddenly asked, “Limo... are you alright?”

Li Mo stopped in his tracks and his gaze shifted to Mo Xiaona.

Her expression did not improve. “I’m fine. Why did you find me?”

Chu Yi sneered softly. “I have something on. I’ll get going first.”

Li Mo’s gaze suddenly turned towards him, but Chu Yi smiled at him. “You should be very busy now. You shouldn’t be able to take care of too many people.”

That would depend on who was more important.

The old lady and Qiao Zhilan could hear the sarcasm clearly.

He was caught between two women. Did he think that he had the ability to clone himself or had three heads and six arms?

She could only... give up one and obtain one. That was the final outcome.

Chu Yi left without any hesitation.

Mo Xiaona stood rooted to the ground with a confused expression. However, when she realized that only the few of them were left in the living room, she instantly felt awkward.

Sweeping a glance at the old lady standing behind Li Mo, her eyes darted around as her body trembled slightly.

She looked like she was obviously frightened.

The old lady’s face was filled with anger. She took two steps forward with her walking stick. Her face was cold and her entire body was filled with anger.

“Miss Mo, long time no see!”

Mo Xiaona bit her lips. “Long time no see...”

“I thought we would never meet again.”

Mo Xiaona looked a little embarrassed. “I didn’t expect to meet you here either...”

The old lady snorted coldly and said, “Miss Mo, you have to know your shame. You should know what to do and where to come! Do you know where this is?”

“I...” Mo Xiaona turned to look at Li Mo quickly. “I heard that Li Mo was suddenly hospitalized last night. I was a little worried about him, so I came to take a look...”

“Miss Mo.” This time, it was not the old lady who spoke, but the elegant Qiao Zhilan.

“This is my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding room. Although I don’t know how you found this place, anyone can come to this place, but you can’t. Because you’re Limo’s ex-girlfriend, and he has a family now. Your appearance can shatter a good family at any time and hurt other innocent people. Even if you don’t have anything now, how can his current wife face you? Moreover... Miss Mo, you have no right to worry about Limo. Even if he’s dead, you definitely won’t be invited to his funeral!”

Qiao Zhilan’s words could be said to be the most serious in many years. She even said something that she had always rejected the old lady in the past.

Mo Xiaona’s face flushed red. She wanted to deny it, but Qiao Zhilan’s words stopped her.

Unable to stand this grievance, her eyes couldn’t help but turn red. “...Are you going to deny our relationship just because we’ve dated before?”

Qiao Zhilan, who had always been gentle and kind, didn’t seem to hear her grievances. She nodded, her expression indifferent and cold.

“Yes, since we’ve dated before, we can’t be classmates or friends. Who do you think can break up or be friends in reality?”

Mo Xiaona glanced at Li Mo, but Qiao Zhilan said,

“Perhaps you’ll tell me that there’s such a possibility. However, I can tell you with 100% certainty that those who can still be friends after breaking up are either afraid of openly falling out and affecting their interests, or they still have designs on the other party, or...

It was because neither of them had truly given their feelings to each other! Because they had not given their true feelings, they were familiar with their relationship and accepted it naturally. Otherwise, there would definitely not be such a choice to be friends after breaking up. This was not a choice at all. It was precisely because of other factors that led to this hypocritical outcome.

After Qiao Zhilan finished speaking, she glanced at Mo Xiaona and said slowly, “Miss Mo, tell me, which one do you belong to?”

Mo Xiaona’s face paled.

What was Li Mo’s status now?

He was the only grandson of the Li family and the leader of the Li Corporation.

How many women were after him?

If she said that she had no designs on him, it would only make them think that she was hypocritical.

Because she wasn’t Xu Qingzhi or the young mistress of any wealthy family, she could only have ulterior motives towards Limo. She wanted his status and the Li family behind him. She had no right to talk about relationships with him.

As for not being emotionally invested, she was sure of herself, but... Qiao Zhilan was obviously reminding or mocking her.

But why?

Back then, Limo was biased towards her. What right did she have to think that... Limo had never truly loved her?

She looked at Li Mo and saw that he was looking in the direction of the French windows with a sinister expression.

Her mind seemed to be elsewhere, even in this room.

Her heart suddenly turned cold and her fingers tightened around the bag on her shoulder.

“Auntie, I can’t give you an answer from the options you gave me. If you insist that I have ulterior motives or why I didn’t fall out with you, it’s all based on the fact that Limo and I used to be classmates and friends...”

Qiao Zhilan stared at her for a few seconds. “That’s why I want to advise you. You have to know your limits. You’re pestering a married man and trying to make your presence known in front of his wife. Don’t you think that you’re... on the same level as those so-called white lotuses and green teas?”

Mo Xiaona’s face turned pale.

At this moment, Li Mo turned around and frowned at Mo Xiaona. “I’m fine now. Thank you for your concern. I still have some matters to attend to. You can go back first.”

He didn’t seem to notice what Qiao Zhilan had said to her. After saying that, he strode towards the door with a straight face. When he passed by her, the wind blew her hair.

She bit her lips tightly as her gaze followed him. Seeing that he didn’t even take off his shoes or coat, she opened the door and strode out.

“Limo is indeed smart, but his IQ and EQ are disproportionate.”

After a long while, Qiao Zhilan said calmly, “I’ve always doted on Limo. I can’t bear to see him angry, sad, and sad. I can’t even bear to see anyone say anything bad about him. I’ll let him do whatever he decides unconditionally. Why did I not agree to fulfill his wishes just because of you and him? Do you know why?”

Mo Xiaona pursed her lips sadly. “We’re not from the same family. You don’t like me.”

Qiao Zhilan shook her head. “You’re wrong. It’s not because of how bad you are or your status. It’s because he’s my son. I know him.”

Mo Xiaona stared at Qiao Zhilan. “What do you mean?”

Qiao Zhilan smiled lightly. “Limo doesn’t love you.”

[How much do you hate Limo? You actually allowed him to be selected as the scumbag of the year! Have you forgotten how perfect I am? My heart aches~~]
