It would have been a lie to say that Li Shu hadn’t been moved at that time.
He was the young master of a wealthy family who had never stepped into a kitchen all his life, but he had gone all the way out to do this for her.
Now as Li Shu stared at the food on the dining table, her heart melted.
It was her stubbornness, the conflict because of that affair years ago, and her continuous attempts to escape the reality of her life, that had resulted in the issues they were facing today, to the extent that they could fooled about their own child.
If she had forgiven Mo Hai at the time, would Mo Zhi have turned out to be like this today? She couldn’t venture a guess. She had spent so little time at home and hadn’t cared much about Mo Xicheng.
It seemed like everything boiled down to her.
Her eyes reddened again.
When Mo Hai noticed this, he got anxious and asked, “Li Shu, are you ok?”
She bit her lip and nodded.
She walked to the dining table and sat down slowly.
Mo Hai was elated to see her responding like that.
For many years, Li Shu had refused to share a dining table with him.
Now that she was sitting opposite him, did it mean that he had managed to reach her heart?
He rubbed his hands together, walked over nervously and took the seat opposite hers. He picked up some food to fill her bowl and said, “Here, try this.”
Li Shu lowered her head and took a bite.
Because she was feeling too moody, she could not eat more after a few bites. She placed her chopsticks down on the table and lifted her head. She noticed Mo Hai’s nervous and worried expression as he looked at her intently.
Her heart softened at once.
She looked at Mo Hai and sighed softly after a short while. Then she continued, “Mo Hai, it’s been so many years, I want to hear the truth from you.”
Like a child who had done something wrong, Mo Hai nodded. He most willingly provided the avenue for her to express her feelings and said, “Ask me anything I’ll answer any questions you ask. I’ll tell you everything.”
Li Shu’s eyes teared up at these words. She started, “At the time, did you have feelings for Yao Lili?”
Mo Hai immediately shook his head and replied, “No, I really did not. I was drunk and someone pushed her on me. And because she bore a slight resemblance to you, I- I couldn’t control myself. I didn’t expect that she’d get pregnant from that one night. And on top of that, she didn’t tell me she was pregnant. Eventually she just came to you with that big belly. Li Shu, I swear, I know that before I turned twenty, I was a casanova and it saddened you. But ever since I made that promise to spend the rest of my life with you, and right up till now, only you were in my heart.”
After hearing him explain this anxiously, she suddenly felt relieved.
Many years had passed since the incident and really, why should she still take that to heart?
She lowered her head and felt the urge to tell Mo Hai something. But then she thought again that she should just wait three more days.
Three days later, if the test results were as she thought, then she would let Mo Hai know.
In the absence of proof right now, given his personality, it may alert Yao Lili and Mo Zhi if she told him.
She lowered her head at the thought of this and swallowed her words.
Time flew by.
Three days passed quickly.
Early that morning, Li Shu went to the private investigation lab and got the test results.
The moment she opened the report and read it, she started to tear up.
