Mo Weiyi looked at her, her black and white cat eyes clear and transparent, âAuntie, what were you chatting with grandma about just now?â
âNothing much. Was my voice too loud and woke you up? Iâm sorry, Yiyi.â Xu Jing said with deep regret.
Mo Weiyi said, âBut I heard you mention something about my motherâ¦â
âYour motherâs death anniversary is coming soon. Your aunt was talking to me about preparing to visit her grave.â Mrs. Xu explained.
Xu Xianâs death anniversary is at the end of February.
Itâs almost here
Mo Weiyi remembered that it was the day after the Lantern Festival, in the middle of the night, when Xu Xian suddenly ran into her room, screaming and yelling, wearing a white dress.
By then, Xu Xian had already been diagnosed with severe depression for two or three years. Her mental condition was unstable and she often spoke nonsense that others couldnât understand.
Mo Weiyi was 16 at the time and her whole mind was on Xiao Yebai.
Also, because she was always forced to practice piano when she was a kid, she felt her mother was too strict and had a temper. She didnât feel particularly close to her and seldom paid her any attention.
Xu Xian usually lived in the attic at the back of the house and a servant was specifically responsible for taking care of her.
Mo Weiyi still clearly remembered that diagnosed evening when Xu Xian had a hysterical outburst and fainted in front of her in the midst of a mental breakdown, scaring her half to death.
Afterward, Mo Yaoxiong quickly arranged to send her to the hospital, but she died in the car on the way.
The reported cause of death by the doctor was: sudden myocardial infarction.
After that night, Mo Weiyi dared not sleep alone at night. If Xiao Yebai was not with her, she would have to have Aunt Zhou accompany her.
âYiyi.â Xu Jingâs voice rose again, âActually, about Yunyaoâs matter, Iâve always wanted to apologize to you.â
Mo Weiyi was brought back to her senses, âWhy are you telling me this?â
Isnât what happened to Qu Yunyao her own doing?
And what does it have to do with her?
Xu Jing frowned tightly, âI really didnât expect that Yunyao would dare to set her sights on Yebai. Itâs my fault for not teaching her well as a mother.â
âWhat are you saying?â Mo Weiyiâs mind went blank for a moment.
âXu Jing, what nonsense are you talking about? Yunyao and Yebaiâ¦â Mrs. Xu could not believe it, âHow is this possible?â
âYiyi, didnât you know about this?â Xu Jing looked at her with surprise, âIâm sorry, I thought you knew. It was brother-in-law who told me about this. The old man and Yebai, they all know about it.â
Seeing Mo Weiyiâs pale face, Xu Jing comforted her, âBut donât worry. Yunyao has been sent to study in Italy and she wonât be able to come back in the short term. So she wonât affect your relationship with Yebai.â
It would have been better if she hadnât said anything. The more she said, the more it seemed she was trying to cover things up.
Because it was Mo Yaoxiong who had sent Qu Yunyao to study in Italy.
Back then, Mo Weiyi only thought it was because Yunyao had caused a scandal and was afraid it would bring a bad influence to the Mo family and Mo Corporation, but now she realized it wasnât that simple.
Mo Weiyi couldnât help but think back to Xiao Zhiwei. Because of her unhealthy obsession with Xiao Yebai, she was forced to go to Canada by Mo Yaoxiong four years ago.
Sigh.
âYiyi.â Xu Jing continued to explain, âYou really shouldnât overthink, there should be nothing between Yunyao and Yebaiâ¦â
âNothing?â Mo Weiyi looked at her with a faint smile, âAunty, are you saying that your daughter coveted my husband, and you, as a mother, did not know?â
âYiyi, what do you mean by that? I really didnât know.â
âLiar!â
âYiyi, donât get upset.â
âNo wonder Qu Yunyao refused to move out back then, acting pitiful in front of others while secretly scaring me and finding trouble with me. It turns out it was all because she was having designs on my husband!â Mo Weiyi took a deep breath, finding the situation ironic.
She asked, word by word, âHow far did they go?â
âYiyi.â Xu Jing, with her eyes reddening, was at a loss for words.
âXu Jing!â Mrs. Xu shouted sternly, âWhat the hell is going on? Tell Yiyi everything clearly, no half-truths!â
Xu Jing frowned deeply and said, âI only learned about this after Yunyao was hospitalized. She said the relationship with that manager Zhang was purely accidental. She really wanted to be with Xiu Hui, and Xiu Hui always thought Yunyao was carrying his child. But then manager Zhang suddenly came to Nancheng and got drunk in the backyard one night and forced that thing to happen with Yunyaoâ¦ââ¦
âYunyao didnât drink that night.â Mo Weiyi suddenly interrupted.
âBut she was pregnant at the time and dared not resist, fearing injury to the child. Who knew that it would be discovered by others and journalists were called overâ¦â
âAunty, donât you find your words contradictory?â Mo Weiyi scoffed.
At this moment, she suddenly felt extremely calm.
Previously, she had not cared, but now that she has discovered the truth, she realized that everything was already foreshadowed.
âYiyi, what do you mean by that?â Xu Jing was extremely cautious.
She knows that her niece doesnât like her.
A womanâs intuition is very accurate. Even though she has done her best to restrain herself, trying hard and being cautious, never daring to slack off during each day she lives in the Mo family, Mo Weiyi was always on guard against her.
