Taken aback, Li Yufeng heard Mi Nuo say sternly, “Also, if I treat her better, she would suspect my identity! That dumb*ss already has a loose screw. If she reveals that I’m not Xiao Muqing’s daughter, I would lose my position as Mrs. Si!”
She sounded frustrated and rather abhorrent. Li Yufeng was shocked by her sudden nasty tone. Li Yufeng pursed her lips before saying, “What happened to you? Why are you like this now? I found out only today that you encouraged Shanshan to pursue Mr. Si. You also instigated her to hate Zhuang Nainai. What are you doing, exactly?”
Mi Nuo suddenly stood up. “So, are you trying to pick a fight with me today? You ask me what I’m doing? I’ll tell you! I’m jealous that she has had her parents by her side since birth while I have had to live so miserably! Why does a brainless person like her get to lead such a good life?”
As soon as Mi Nuo said this, all of Li Yufeng’s fury and frustrations vanished. She was left only with guilt instantly.
Her tone finally became more gentle. It seemed like she had noticed Mi Nuo’s hand at last. Hence, she stepped forward hurriedly. “Alright, Nuonuo. Let’s not talk about this anymore. What happened to your hand? Why is it bleeding?”
After saying this, she rushed over to the other side and took out the first aid kit to help her bandage her hand.
Mi Nuo watched her bandage her hand with a cold gaze. Thereafter, Li Yufeng sat down opposite her. “Is there any progress regarding Mr. Si?”
Upon hearing this, Mi Nuo looked slightly worn out and flustered. “No, I still can’t meet him. I don’t even know where he is. Why is he doing this to me?”
Li Yufeng frowned. “Don’t worry. This is something we can’t rush.”
“How can I not worry?!” Mi Nuo suddenly stood up as she lost control of her emotions once again. “It has been a month! A month! Isn’t she supposed to be my surrogate? Aren’t the children supposed to be mine? But I haven’t even seen the children once! And I only saw Mr. Si once this month! This entire month! Where exactly is he? He’s not at the Imperial Group nor the Si residence. Could he have evaporated into thin air?”
Li Yufeng held her hands immediately. “Don’t panic! Don’t panic! Listen to me!”
“Okay, tell me, where is he? What should I do next? Why are there so many assassination attempts occurring in wealthy families that I experienced it thrice this month?!”
Upon saying this, Mi Nuo grabbed Li Yufeng’s hand hurriedly. “Mother, tell me. Why did things turn out this way?”
Li Yufeng consoled her hastily, “Nuonuo, don’t worry. I think this must have something to do with the fight over family assets. Si Guangsong has been keeping a close eye on Mr. Si. Don’t be scared, everything will be fine. Just think about the number of people who actually get killed successfully. Everything is fine. Everything is fine.”
Li Yufeng was throwing out these remarks so easily, but she had never experienced it herself. Hence, Mi Nuo thought that she totally did not understand her!
She paced around the room vexedly before hearing Li Yufeng say, “Nuonuo, actually, you have placed your emphasis on the wrong thing.”
Taken aback, Mi Nuo turned around to look at Li Yufeng. Li Yufeng continued, “We are actually targeting your mother-in-law. You shouldn’t be looking for Mr. Si right now. You should look for your mother-in-law and suck up to her until she is fond of you. By then, Mr. Si wouldn’t divorce you no matter what.”
Divorce?
After she heard this, Mi Nuo’s eyes lit up for a while. She suddenly asked, “What if I divorce Mr. Si?”
