ââ¦Oh.â Mo Weiyiâs cheeks were flushed, he took a few breaths before reaching out for the mobile phone on the tea table, âShi Bo.
âWhat? You canât find it? How is it not there?â Mo Weiyi instantly furrowed his brows, âIt fell on the floor near the sofa, search the area.â
âAlright then.â
After hanging up the phone, Mo Weiyi looked at Xiao Yebai with a troubled expression, âItâs over, Xiaobai, I lost Ling Zhizhouâs textbook.
Xiao Yebai had already regained his usual calm and indifference, âMaybe it was too damaged, and the maid thought it was waste and threw it away.â
ââ¦Waste?â Mo Weiyi frowned, âBut thatâs the textbook Ling Zhizhou lent to
me, itâs his freshman textbook.â
Xiao Yebai looked at her, âHe lent you his freshman textbook?â
âYes! Someone kindly lent me their textbook and I lost it.â
Behind his glasses, his deep black eyes moved slightly, then Xiao Yebaiâs voice
rang out, âSince itâs like this, he should forgive you.â
Mo Weiyi was thrown into chaos.
This wasnât a matter of forgiveness, okay!
Before she could think about it more, Xiao Yebai stood up directly, âItâs getting
late, goto sleep.â
Mo Weiyi:ââ¦â
**
The following morning, there were no classes at the school.
Mo Weiyi had Uncle Liu drive him back to the old house.
As a result, after searching the bedroom of the Southern Mansion, he couldnât find the English textbook.
Mo Weiyi found it utterly inconceivable, the textbook was so thick and it wasnât that tattered, how could it have been lost?
He hastily called the maid who was cleaning the room.
âAuntie Yang, have you seen my English textbook?
âI didnât see it.â
âI clearly left it on the floor, you didnât really see it? Did you throw it away without thinking?â
âPrincess, I really didnât see any English textbook.â
Mo Weiyi:
This was truly strange.

The villa next door.
Qu Yunyao had just woken up and come downstairs when Xu Jing was already preparing to leave.
Seeing her daughter, she said, âYunya, Iâve found a house.â
âAhouse?â
âYes.â Xu Jing took out her mobile phone, opened a photo, âThis one. Iâve been looking at houses these past few days, I just finalized it with the agency of this property, now Iâm going to sign the contract with them. The house isnât big, but itâs a two-bedroom apartment, itâs enough for us to live in, and itâs quite close to Xu Ruiâs studio, Iâll hire a maid laterâ¦â
âIâm not moving!â Qu Yunyao suddenly interrupted her, âMom, are you out of
your mind?â
âWhat did you say?â
Qu Yunyao looked at Xu Jing speechlessly, âWeâre living so comfortably here, we have food, we have a place to stay, we have maids to wait on us, and we even have drivers to transport us. Why should we move? I canât work now that Iâm pregnant, how much do you earn a month? After the divorce, you left without a penny, you didnât even have alimony. What are you going to use to pay the rent? Can you afford the rent?â
Xu Jingâs face turned ugly.
âIn any case, Iâm not moving, Iâm going to live here, if you want to move, move by yourself!â Qu Yunyao crossed her arms, and sat down on the sofa.
Xu Jing was stunned for a moment.
She had always considered her daughter to be quite obedient, how come she became more and more rebellious after getting pregnant?
âYunya, youâre pregnant now, it really isnât suitable for you to live here. Youâre okay now, but once your belly slowly grows, wonât you feel that it has a bad influence? Do you know what the maids are saying about us? They say we are a pitiful single mother and child, and they also say that you got pregnant out of wedlock, and are not mindful of your actionsâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, Qu Yunyao suddenly shouted, âXiaohong!
Xiaohong! Xiaohong, come here!â
The maid that was cleaning nearby quickly ran over, with a feather duster in her hand, âMiss, Xiaohong has already been transferred.â
After Xu Jing said those words during dinner last night, Mo Yaoxiong had the maids here switched.
Then Qu Yunyao said, âBring Xiaohong to me.
âYunya, what are you trying to do?â
âMom, donât intervene.â Qu Yunyao yelled at the maid, âAre you deaf? Hurry up!â
The maid was startled and quickly put down the feather duster to go call Xiaohong.
Soon, Xiaohong was brought in.
When she arrived, she looked nervously at Qu Yunyao, âMiss, what do you need me for⦠Ah!â
Qu Yunyao slapped her hard, her elegant face was distorted with aggression, âShameless slut, what did you say behind my back? Huh!
Xiaohong covered her face, in pain, scared, and wronged, she could only deny, âMiss, I didnât say anything bad about you, I really didnât⦠Ah!
Another slap came down.
âYou dare argue back!â Qu Yunyao picked up the feather duster the maid had hastily put down and fiercely hit Xiaohong, âYouâre just a maid, yet you dare to say Iâm unscrupulous? Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to talk about me, huh!â
âYunya, have you gone mad? Stop itâ¦â Xu Jing hurriedly tried to pull her back. But Qu Yunyao was like a lunatic, continuously hitting with the feather duster more than a dozen times, then she threw it on the ground with a âclatterâ, âGet
out!â
Xiaohong ran out of the villa crying, and as she rounded the corner, she saw Mo Weiyi coming out from the opposite villa.
Her eyes lit up, she hastily ran over crying, âPrincess, wuu wuu wuuâ¦â Mo Weiyi looked up and was almost scared, âWhat happened? How did you get hurt like this?â
Xiaohongâs eyes were red and swollen from crying, her hair was a mess, her cheeks showed obvious handprints, and there were red marks on her forehead.
At first glance, she looked like she had been abused.
