Chapter 628: Would Like Miss Chu to Make an Introduction

Ling Wei spoke in a rush, not even making eye contact with Mo Tingshen, her voice trailing off between her teeth.

After she finished, she was about to leave but was stopped by Mo Tingshen.

“Mom.”

Ling Wei stiffened, and before she could turn around, Mo Tingshen had pulled her into his embrace.

“Don’t blame yourself, Xiao Yao never mentioned any fault of yours to me, nor did she ever discuss you in front of Suizhi.

She never blamed you in her heart.”

Tears instantly welled up in Ling Wei’s eyes.

Mo Tingshen thought Ling Wei was just moved.

He began to regret not sending Ling Wei away when he dealt with Mo Li, which frightened her so.

Chu Yao had never blamed Ling Wei.

But Mo Tingshen certainly had.

After all, before Chu Yao sought his help in junior high, he and Suizhi were in boarding school, Ling Wei was at home; she must have noticed something yet failed to protect Chu Yao.

He really had blamed her.

But now he had come to terms with it.

“Don’t overthink it.

We have a long life ahead of us.

We can’t avoid seeing each other forever.”

Mo Tingshen gently patted Ling Wei’s back and suddenly asked, “Do you want to go on a trip?”

“Hmm?”

“You’ve worked hard for so many years.

It’s time to let go.

If you want to go, I’ll arrange it, and bring Suizhi along too.”

Ling Wi looked up, “What about you?”

Mo Tingshen paused, “I can’t leave.”

Ling Wei glanced outside once more and understood.

In the car, Chu Yao looked on with interest at the mother and daughter embracing.

The corners of her mouth twitched upward slightly, but her eyes held not a hint of a smile.

The windows were tightly shut, and a claustrophobic chill filled the compact car.

Her phone rang, she glanced down with narrowed eyes and saw an unfamiliar number, then swiped to answer.

“Hello.”

“Miss Chu, I apologize for the intrusion.

Please don’t blame me.”

The voice on the other end was an unfamiliar male.

The hint of a smile on Chu Yao’s lips faded, and she chuckled oddly, “It is an intrusion.

My private number isn’t disclosed, yet you’ve managed quite a feat.”

The caller seemed surprised by her unflustered tone, but his exclusionary tone was quite clear.

“How about this, let me introduce myself.

My surname is Yeh, full name Yeh Hannian.

I have a three-year-old daughter named Yeh Tuantuan.

She saw your friend playing the guzheng for you on TV and became fascinated.

I was hoping Miss Chu could introduce us.”

Chu Yao frowned, “What are you saying?”

Yeh Hannian slowly rephrased his earlier statement.

Chu Yao sneered, “Where do you come from, thinking you can target my people?”

Yeh Hannian chuckled lazily, “So, Miss Chu isn’t willing?”

Since calling her, he had looked into Chu Yao’s temper.

She was not one to be trifled with.

But Xiao Nannan was even more formidable.

He had been in Country C for a while now, having arranged a ragtag ambush on his first night.

Bo Yanching and the Killing Alliance had cleaned him up thoroughly after that.

To cross oceans to meet her, he couldn’t even begin to count how much money he had spent, and still hadn’t figured out an appropriate way to introduce himself to Xiao Nannan.

He was helpless.

He couldn’t beat them.

Back when they had parted, Xiao Nannan had held a gun to his head, warning him not to bother her.

Tsk.

That woman was not easy to deal with.

He had thought of starting with her friends, but Chu Yao was not easy to speak with either.

Within a few words, the tension in their conversation was palpable even through the air.

He pretended to assert himself, “If Miss Chu is unwilling, then never mind.

I can contact that lady directly.

After all, if I can find your number, I can find hers too.”
