Chapter 1415: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (88)
Li Shu looked at them one at a time.
Finally, her gaze fell on Mo Xicheng.
He had not moved from his spot on the bed. His expression was cold and distant as always, perpetually giving others the feeling that nothing could ever touch him.
He had seen too much in his time, Li Shu knew that only too well.
This child was forever enduring silently, forever humble.
Even though he had no friends, even though he was evidently a bright child but would always only score a mere 60/100 in his tests, even though… ever since he had graduated, he had not spent a single cent of the Mo family’s money.
She still remembered the first movie he had acted in.
Yao Lili had taken his earnings to buy herself a purse.
At the time, Li Shu had even been a little envious.
Because she had also wanted a present from her son. But when Mo Xicheng had been working as an actor after graduation, Mo Zhi had gone on a world tour.
Mo Zhi had never earned a salary.
At the time, she had felt slightly disappointed.
Later on, Mo Xixheng had approached her slowly and had placed a gemstone necklace before her.
That gemstone necklace had been expensive, no cheaper than Yao Lili’s handbag.
When she got it, Li Shu was stunned. She watched him place the gift before her in his usual calm and indifferent manner. Then he had bowed and said, “Thank you for your care all of these years. I think I’d like to move out with my mom so that we don’t cause any more disruptions in your life.”
With the first paycheck he had drawn, he bought her that gift, rented a villa elsewhere and moved out with his mother.
Furthermore, after leaving, she received a bankbook from him.
There were a million in the account.
He left a note: [The Mo family may have spent more than a million on me all these years, but that’s all I have right now. For now, I’m returning this amount.]
He was adamant.
He was so determined that Li Shu had come to understand how stubborn this child was.
Very clearly, he was drawing a line between himself and the Mo family.
After this, he acted in his second movie, then his third.
Until finally, he amassed a fortune. In total, he must have given her close to 10 million.
She had kept aside that money with the intention of returning all of it to him when he got married. This was also to return the affection that she had for him.
So a person like him, how could he possibly do such a thing?
Since young, he had kept every word he had given to her.
While Li Shu was thinking of all these things, he spoke up. He looked at Li Shu and said after a while, “This time, I have to apologize.”
Those few words were simple but in an instant, Li Shu knew what he was thinking.
He was not going to hold back anymore.
Li Shu’s pupils shrank. In that moment, even if she wanted to tell him to give way to Mo Zhi, she was unable to get these words out.
On the other hand, Mo Hai was elated and said, “Li Shu, look, he’s apologized and admitted it!! He set Mo Zhi up. Dishonorable son, admit it! You did this because you are after the Mo family’s estate.”
Yao Lili lowered her head and said, “How could you do this? The Mo family brought you up, is this how you repay them? Mo Xicheng, have you forgotten everything I’ve told you since you were young?!”
As Mo Hai was about to say more, Li Shu suddenly snapped back to the present.
She stared straight ahead for the longest time before she suddenly said, “Shut up, all of you!”
