Chapter 1807: Who Do You Think It Is?

“You’re not even letting me look at you now? I’ve seen you many times in the past, but why haven’t I seen your shadow?”

Li Mo’s face darkened. “This is my house. How shameless are you to seduce someone else’s wife?”

Chu Yi sneered again. “Mr Li, please ask yourself what you were thinking when you went to a high-end hotel with your ex-lover behind your wife’s back.”

Hearing this, Li Mo’s expression changed and Xu Qingzhi’s face froze.

The old lady and Qiao Zhilan frowned.

The old lady’s face darkened. She stood up from the sofa and said coldly, “What happened?! What ex-lover?”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes and did not answer the old lady. Instead, he said coldly to Chu Yi,

“In that case, can I also calculate with you about the two of you going in and out for dinner?”

“Okay.” Chu Yi nodded honestly and replied, “I admit that I like Qingzhi. She didn’t know what I was thinking before today. She invited me to be her spokesperson. I flew over from Ping Cheng City and she invited me to dinner. The two of us, be it in the past or now, are innocent and open… What about you, Mr Li?”

“If it weren’t for the online media, I’m afraid no one would have known that Xu Qingzhi is your official wife, right? It’s all thanks to the Internet. Your wife has suffered the attacks and mockery of rumors after marrying you. Can’t you see it or don’t you care?”

“If you had paid attention to her, perhaps she wouldn’t have appeared there with me! I did have dinner with her, but at the very least, she’s not my ex. I didn’t bring her to the restaurant where the two of us had dinner before to reminisce about the past, let alone lift the curtain for her and take her bag… I know you’re a gentleman, but have you ever behaved like one to your wife?”

Chu Yi said casually, but his tone was filled with endless mockery.

Li Mo’s face was ashen. Chu Yi had said everything, leaving no room for explanation.

As for Xu Qingzhi, she didn’t want to care too much about what had just happened. Now that Chu Yi had deliberately mentioned it, a sense of sadness and heartache gradually spread. She stood quietly, not knowing what to say or do.

She couldn’t participate in anything.

They were husband and wife, and she had the right to ask Limo for an explanation. But… she didn’t.

Because she was afraid.

She was afraid that she would be sad, afraid that every word and expression he said would easily hurt her.

She didn’t want to…

Most of the time, she only wanted to live in front of her, even if she was muddle-headed.

Just like these two days, she didn’t know why or what would happen in the future. She only wanted to remember the time she spent with Limo.

She didn’t have to think about anything. Every bit of happiness counted.

She had never dared to ask for love from Limo.

However, humans were contradictory. After being together for a long time, they wanted more and couldn’t ignore the barrier between them.

She had mentioned Mo Xiaona to him before, but this question seemed to have been left unsettled.

Now that Chu Yi had mentioned it, under such a tense situation, she really didn’t know what Li Mo would say to hurt her.

She clenched her fists and stood behind Li Mo. Her head was slightly lowered and her red lips were pursed tightly. Her body was tense and her palms were cold.

She was prepared to be stabbed by Li Mo anytime.

The old lady glanced at her and her expression turned even colder. “Limo! I’m asking you a question! Who is the ex-lover you were talking about just now?!”

Li Mo frowned, his expression cold. “Are you done?”

Qiao Zhilan’s face darkened. “Limo, you have to clarify this matter. Is it Mo Xiaona? Is she back?”

Li Mo didn’t say anything, but Chu Yi continued to add insult to injury. “It seems that Mr Li is really devoted. As long as he mentions his ex, everyone knows that only Miss Mo Xiaona is known!”

Xu Qingzhi’s eyes trembled and she suddenly felt a lack of oxygen. She felt suffocated and it was difficult to breathe.

How devoted was Li Mo to only have one lover?

Should she be glad or sad?

He had only given his past to one woman.

Mo Xiaona seemed to be very important to him.

If it were other rich kids, they would have countless girlfriends.

Regardless of whether they were putting on an act or had invested some feelings into it,

This kind of thing was not surprising in this realistic society. It had even become a matter of course.

However, Li Mo was alone with Mo Xiaona…

She closed her eyes tightly and forced herself not to think about these things.

She didn’t want to fall into a dead end.

For a moment, she felt sad.

To Qiao Zhilan and the old lady, Li Mo’s cold attitude felt like a lifetime ago.

This was how Limo had always treated them when they objected to Limo dating Mo Xiaona.

The old lady gripped her walking stick tightly in anger, her face turning pale. “Alright, she’s back indeed! Limo, you actually hid it from us…”

Impatience flashed across Li Mo’s eyes. He turned around and looked at the old lady coldly. “Why? Do I have to sue you when she comes back so that you can force her away?”

The old lady’s angry eyes widened even more. “What else do you want her to do? Why do you want her to stay in Rong City? Can you see her anytime?”

Li Mo frowned and said, “It’s her freedom to go wherever she wants. It’s also my freedom to do whatever I want. Don’t reach out too far! Mind your own business…”

“Limo!” A furious roar sounded. It wasn’t the old lady, Xu Qingzhi, or Chu Yi. It was Qiao Zhilan, who had always been gentle and rarely spoke loudly.

“Do you know what you’re talking about?! Is this the time for you to do whatever you want?!”

Qiao Zhilan said bitterly, “Don’t forget that you’re married now. Look at the woman standing beside you. She’s your wife and she’s pregnant with your child! Your grandmother is right. What do you want by leaving Mo Xiaona in Rongcheng City? You’re allowing her to appear by your side anytime and anywhere. Where do you place Qingzhi?!”

Xu Qingzhi’s body trembled slightly when her name was called, and the bitterness in her heart almost overflowed.

When she looked up, her eyes were still red.

Qiao Zhilan’s words made Limo turn his head abruptly.

The moment their gazes met, Xu Qingzhi was shocked by the coldness and anger in his eyes. She subconsciously blinked and took half a step back.

She opened her mouth to say something, but she didn’t know what to say under Li Mo’s gaze.

In the end, she could only turn her head to the side.

She clearly wanted to hide her helplessness, but this action made her look even more pathetic.

Something flashed across Li Mo’s eyes before he retracted his emotions. However, Xu Qingzhi didn’t look at him again.

When the old lady and Qiao Zhilan saw Xu Qingzhi’s expression, their hearts ached.

Furious, the old lady raised her walking stick and swung it at Li Mo.

“You damned brat! I’ll kill you today! You heartless…”

A loud thud sounded, accompanied by a buzzing sound. It was obvious how strong the impact was.

“Grandma…” She called out in the end, wanting to protect Limo. “Stop hitting me. Limo is still sick…”

However, the old lady couldn’t stop raising the stick again.

Just as it was about to land on Xu Qingzhi, Li Mo subconsciously turned around and used his back to protect her.

However, the pain on her back did not come. Instead, the woman in her arms had her arm grabbed by someone.

He let go of Xu Qingzhi slightly and turned to look at the person holding her arm.

Chu Yi held the old lady’s walking stick with one hand and Xu Qingzhi’s wrist with the other.

If Li Mo hadn’t protected her in advance, Xu Qingzhi wouldn’t have been hurt and would have been pulled into Chu Yi’s embrace.

“Old Madam, it’s too easy to implicate the innocent. If you want to teach your grandson a lesson in the future, I suggest you find a deserted place. It’s fine no matter how you hit him.”

As Chu Yi spoke, he placed the old lady’s walking stick aside and grabbed Xu Qingzhi’s hand.

Instead, she met Li Mo’s cold gaze and smiled coldly. “Don’t look at me like that. Who do you think is the culprit who almost injured her?”

After saying that, the sarcastic smile on Chu Yi’s lips deepened. “If it weren’t for Miss Mo Xiaona’s existence, today’s matter might have stopped at the fact that I’m a shameless third party. Thanks to you, I can exist so righteously as a third party. You have the right to ostracize me, but… you’re not qualified.”

Li Mo’s face darkened. “You’re saying I’m not qualified?”

Chu Yi’s expression did not change. “It’s just the name of a husband. But as your husband… do you think you’re doing a good job?”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes. He watched as Chu Yideng entered the room and expressed his true feelings to Xu Qingzhi in front of him. He even shouted at him. Be it his dignity as a man or the unknown emotions in his heart, it made him feel irritable from the inside out.

He only had one thought now, and that was to completely destroy this man in front of him.

Before Li Mo could finish his thought, he had already walked up to Chu Yi. Seeing that he had not let go of Xu Qingzhi’s hand, he said coldly, “Let go.”

Chu Yi pursed his lips and stared at him coldly. “You can’t… let go of her so easily…”

It was impossible. Li Mo’s face darkened again. He raised his hand and used brute force to separate their hands. Almost instantly, he reached out to grab Chu Yi’s collar.

He leaned closer to him, and his cold and dangerous aura instantly approached.

Xu Qingzhi’s wrist was in pain. Just as she was in a daze for a few seconds, the sound of a physical fight sounded.

She looked up and saw Limo’s fist landing on Chu Yi’s face.

Caught off guard, Chu Yi grabbed the armrest of the sofa to prevent himself from falling.

Xu Qingzhi’s scalp went numb and she hurried forward to hug Li Mo, who was about to continue punching her.

“Limo!”

Li Mo’s entire body was tense. To him, Xu Qingzhi’s presence was better than nothing.

Seeing that he was about to hurt Xu Qingzhi, Qiao Zhilan stepped forward to protect her.

“Limo! Be careful not to hurt Qingzhi!”

Qiao Zhilan’s loud roar made Li Mo freeze on the spot. He turned to look at the woman who was hugging him.

“Limo, don’t do anything rash…”

Xu Qingzhi looked up at him and shook her head, her expression pleading.

Li Mo narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a long time before slowly retracting his arm.

“Why? You can’t bear to see me cripple him or beat him up?”

Xu Qingzhi was slightly stunned. The expression on Li Mo’s face was unprecedentedly ferocious and terrifying.

What he said made her furious.

“Limo, can you be more reasonable? Chu Yi…”

“Why do you want me to be reasonable? He confessed his love for you in front of me. I have to stand at the side and applaud for you. Am I happy for you? Should I be more sensible and give this house to you so that you can live a real married life?”

Xu Qingzhi paused. Her mind was blank. All she knew was that the anger in her heart had suddenly exploded like a balloon. By the time she reacted, there was only a burning pain in her hand.

The entire living room was dead silent.

The crisp sound of applause seemed to be lingering in the air.

Chu Yi stood up slowly and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He sneered silently.

Today’s scene seemed to be too intense.

Li Mo turned to look at her coldly.

Xu Qingzhi’s eyes were bloodshot and she was trembling with anger.

“… Shameless.”

As soon as she spoke, tears fell from her eyes.

She wasn’t prepared at all. The heat seemed to seep out of her body uncontrollably.

After realizing that, she felt that she was useless.

She had never wanted to cry in front of anyone, but now that she had lost control, she seemed even more cowardly.

Li Mo’s cold eyes flashed as he stared at those red eyes. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

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