Mo Yixuan quickly explained, “Yan Yan, please don’t take my mother’s harsh words to heart. She was only missing her grandchild too much and she truly does love Yuan Yuan.”
He Xiyan’s lips curved into a cold smile. She knew that this was what he would tell her and each time she heard him mention his mother, she grew more annoyed. Li Qin was no longer her mother-in-law; she was only his mother.
“She’s your mother!” He Xiyan couldn’t help but yell at him.
Mo Yixuan froze for a moment but he didn’t spend too long dwelling on the form of address since he was here today to try to get her back.
“Yan Yan, could you please take a seat first?” Mo Yixuan said as he took the seat opposite her. He also stopped trying to forcefully approach her for fear of agitating her further.
He Xiyan said, “If you’ve got anything else you’d like to add, let me know now. As for Yuan Yuan, I’ve already told you earlier that I’ll agree for him to take up the Mo family name and allow you both to see the child once a month for a day each time. This is it!”
He Xiyan did not sit down and she was losing control over her emotions. Their actions made her terribly upset and annoyed.
Mo Yixuan paused for a moment and bit his thin lips hard. His eyes were no longer as cold as they used to be in the past but they were full of remorse and longing toward his wife. He clenched his fists tightly and his nails dug into his palms.
“I’m sorry…” he said hoarsely. He decided to follow his heart and apologize sincerely to his ex-wife because he was the one who had been at fault. All these things had happened because of him.
He Xiyan laughed helplessly. What was the use of apologizing now when things were completely different?
“Mo Yixuan, you don’t need to apologize and I don’t need your apology either,” she said. She didn’t need his apologies. All she wanted was for him and his mother to stop harassing her and to not take her child away from her.
Mo Yixuan placed his hand to his mouth and coughed twice. Her words were like needles that pricked at every nerve in his body. He only managed to eke out after a while, “I know that there’s no use in apologizing but Yan Yan, I truly hope that you’ll come back and so does my mother. If you have any conditions, just let us know. Yuan Yuan is our child; so shouldn’t we provide him with a complete family even if it is for his sake?”
Mo Yixuan brought up the child’s name because he knew that she cared the most about her child.
He Xiyan closed her eyes tightly and she felt her heart shatter at the mention of Yuan Yuan’s name. She gripped the corner of the table tightly and could no longer hold her tears back.
Mo Yixuan assumed that she was wavering and said, “Yan Yan, promise me that you’ll go home with me, won’t you? We’ll raise Yuan Yuan together and I’ll even let you bring along the daughter you had with Ye Hao and I’ll raise her as though she was my own daughter. I’ll do anything you ask,” he said. He would give her his money, his heart, everything he had as long as she agreed to go home with him.
He Xiyan felt as though a knife had twisted in her heart. She shook her head sorrowfully and covered her eyes with her hands. Her tears rolled down her cheeks as though a dam had broken. Regardless of what he said, it was far too late. Everything was too late. Many things had changed during this two-year period, so it was impossible between them. The feelings she had for him had dissipated over time and because of that betrayal.
Her heart only ached for her child and she felt extremely sad that her Yuan Yuan would never grow up in a loving family with his biological parents.
“Alright, you don’t need to continue,” He Xiyan closed her eyes sorrowfully and waved her hand, motioning for him to stop talking since his words would no longer make her change her mind.
