With a bang, the door of the villa was suddenly opened from the outside.
Li Mo walked in with a dark expression.
The moment he opened the door, Xu Qingzhi’s words of “try to love someone else” made his suppressed emotions explode.
She was going to love someone else?
What she said was simple!
How could she love someone else just because she was pregnant with his child? How could it be that simple?
She was the one who wanted to get married and the one who wanted a divorce.
Did she think he was a dead man?
She had said everything!
When Mo Xiaona saw Li Mo, a look of eagerness appeared on her face.
Seeing him walking towards her, she almost cried tears of joy. “Limo…”
However, Li Mo didn’t seem to hear her. He didn’t even look at her.
His face was still dark and his eyes were cold as he stared at Xu Qingzhi.
Xu Qingzhi’s expression was calm as she looked up at Li Mo. Faced with his maliciousness, she only smiled faintly.
“I’ll do my best to help Grandma and Mom. Of course, you might not care, but… I’ll use the child to force you to marry me. It doesn’t matter if you accept or not…”
She paused and the smile on her face widened. “Don’t worry, since I’ve made this decision, there won’t be a day when I go back on my word. So… I don’t have to worry about hurting Mo Xiaona or ruining your relationship… Although I don’t care how you suspect me, I still don’t want others to think that I’m a vicious woman…”
“I sincerely wish you happiness. We’re not enemies, right? I have time to settle the divorce procedures with you anytime. If you can’t wait to do it now, you can…”
“Qingzhi!”
“Yes, yes!”
Qiao Zhilan and the old lady panicked.
Why did things turn out like this?
She wanted it now…
Was there no room for negotiation?
“Grandma, Mom, really… that’s it. Some things can’t be forced…”
The old lady shook her head and said, “No, I don’t agree… You’re my only granddaughter-in-law. If you divorce Limo, then let Limo be a bachelor for the rest of his life! Other than you, I won’t let any other woman enter the Li family!”
Although Li Mo had ignored her since she entered, Mo Xiaona was still overjoyed.
As long as Xu Qingzhi was willing to quit, she and Limo still had a huge chance…
Back then, they had no choice but to separate her. The reason why they left heartlessly was to let Qiao Zhilan and the old lady know her place in Limo’s heart.
As long as she was forced to leave, Limo would definitely not forgive them easily.
It was only a matter of time before they acknowledged her.
Who would have thought that Limo would suddenly marry Xu Qingzhi?
There was even a child between them…
Hence, she ignored their warning and tried her best to salvage the situation.
But given how smart Limo was, she couldn’t be too obvious.
Now, Xu Qingzhi had finally given up. However, what did the old lady say?
If it wasn’t for Xu Qingzhi, she would rather let Limo remain single forever?
Was this a joke?
Who was she talking to?
How could she let the only heir of the Li family live alone?
The smile on Xu Qingzhi’s face was mixed with bitterness and helplessness. “Grandma, don’t be like this…”
The old lady shook her head and grabbed her hand tightly. “I’m telling the truth. If it’s not you, no one can… Besides, you’re pregnant with Limo’s child. If you get a divorce now, what will happen to him after the child is born?”
Xu Qingzhi’s expression faltered slightly. “I’ve considered the child. You don’t have to worry. He’s the blood of the Li family. Even if I divorce Limo, it’s the same… We’ll divorce peacefully. If you miss him, you can bring him back to accompany you… I just hope that you can think the same. Don’t snatch him away from me completely… This is our child…”
The old lady was stunned. Xu Qingzhi’s words finally brought tears to her eyes.
This child was determined this time…
She even thought of children.
When two people divorced, the most difficult problem to solve was the child.
If she was unwilling to give up the custody of the child, then this matter between her and Limo would not end so quickly. After all, the child was a burden.
However, she actually chose the most neutral method.
She admitted that the child was of the Li family’s bloodline and she didn’t stop them from seeing the child.
She didn’t care who had custody of the child. She just hoped to see the child grow up healthily…
How were they going to use the child to “threaten” her to stay in the Li family and not let her see the child?
What should she do?
She felt that she really couldn’t keep Qingzhi this time.
Old Madam wasn’t the only one who noticed this. Everyone in the room could sense it, including Li Mo, who was standing opposite her.
She was really determined…
The child had been arranged so meticulously by her. The compromise and concession could not be more obvious.
And her compromise and concession was only to achieve her goal of divorce…
This realization made Li Mo panic.
“Why? Didn’t you say that a divorce has to be thorough? Since you keep saying that you want to fulfill our wishes, why haven’t you thought about the impact this child will have on me?”
Xu Qingzhi, you want a divorce?
How was that possible!
Xu Qingzhi tried her best to calm herself down, but when she heard Li Mo’s words, her eyes couldn’t help but tremble.
“Limo! What are you talking about?! Are you crazy?!!”
The old lady and Qiao Zhilan sucked in a breath of cold air. They were angered by Li Mo’s words.
Li Mo was shocked by their roars and his eyes flashed. Then, he seemed to have recalled something. When he saw the shock and grief in Xu Qingzhi’s eyes, his heart tightened and he opened his mouth. “I’m not…”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes were still red. She looked at Li Mo quietly for a long time before she nodded lightly when he spoke. Then, her fair and exquisite neck rolled a few times before she slowly said,
“In that case…”
She had just opened her mouth, but her voice was clearly trembling and sobbing.
She paused and squeezed her hand in her pocket. Then, she forced an ugly smile and said,
“You’re right… I wasn’t thoughtful enough. Since that’s the case… I’ll raise the child fully. I’ll bring him far away. I won’t let him appear in the Li family or disturb your lives, okay?”
“Qingzhi!”
“Yes, yes!”
“Let’s do it now!” Xu Qingzhi no longer listened to Qiao Zhilan and the old lady. Instead, she interrupted them and looked at Li Mo. “Let’s go through the divorce procedures today. I don’t lack anything, so you don’t have to think of making it up to me. I believe you don’t need it either! I’ll go upstairs to get my documents. Wait a moment…”
After saying that, she pulled her hand back from the old lady and hurried upstairs.
She didn’t want to. She didn’t want to continue here. She didn’t want to stay a minute longer.
She couldn’t stand it. She was also afraid that the love she had for Limo for so many years would be worn away by him.
“Evil creature!” The old lady looked at her empty hand. Her clear and determined back view made her heart ache even more. She had nowhere to vent her anger. Finally, she raised her hand and gave Li Mo a tight slap.
A crisp sound echoed throughout the living room and Limo’s face was slapped to the side.
Xu Qingzhi paused for a moment before she gritted her teeth and went upstairs.
“Limo!”
Mo Xiaona reacted immediately and hurried forward to help him. At this moment, Li Mo suddenly turned around and waved Mo Xiaona away. He strode towards the stairs with a straight face.
She didn’t restrain her strength and Mo Xiaona fell onto the armrest of the sofa.
Xu Qingzhi had just taken a few steps when someone grabbed her arm forcefully.
She turned her head abruptly and saw Li Mo’s cold and furious face.
She tugged at her hand, but it didn’t budge.
She looked at him quietly. “What else are you not satisfied with?”
Li Mo’s face tightened.
Xu Qingzhi didn’t want to continue arguing with him. She frowned and slapped her wrist a few more times.
“Let go of me!”
Naturally, Li Mo wouldn’t.
“Let go of me!” Xu Qingzhi shouted angrily.
Afraid that something would happen to them, Qiao Zhilan and the old lady hurried to the staircase in the living room. “Limo, what are you doing?!”
Li Mo’s expression changed. He pursed his lips and bent down to carry Xu Qingzhi.
Xu Qingzhi gasped and her eyes widened, but she still clung onto Limo’s shoulders tightly.
When Qiao Zhilan and the old lady saw this scene, worry and anxiety flashed across their faces. But not long after, they gradually calmed down.
Perhaps the reason why Limo was so angry was because he didn’t want a divorce…
Mo Xiaona walked over and watched as Li Mo carried Xu Qingzhi up the stairs angrily.
She opened her mouth to stop him, but the old lady and Qiao Zhilan had already turned around and were looking at her coldly.
“You seemed very happy just now,” Qiao Zhilan said coldly. “I’ve said so much just now. Did I make you give up on the idea of entering the Li family?”
Mo Xiaona took two steps back. “Isn’t what Qingzhi said just now right? Nothing can be forced. Everyone is imperfect, but Limo still has me in his heart…”
“Then you really want to give it a try. Let’s see if Limo will continue to care about you after he finds out about the ‘imperfect’ things you’ve done in the past.”
Mo Xiaona’s face paled, but Qiao Zhilan pressed on. She didn’t know how to respond.
“I…”
“Or do you think Limo can cut ties with us and leave the Li family just to marry you?”
Mo Xiaona shook her head quickly. “No… I didn’t…”
“Then why were you so smug just now?!”
Qiao Zhilan suddenly shouted angrily, “I’ve already said all the good things. It seems like it doesn’t affect you at all. Miss Mo, what do you want? Are you determined to tear our Li family apart?”
Mo Xiaona’s face was ugly and pale.
Qiao Zhilan’s face and voice turned colder.
“If you still don’t understand, I’ll repeat myself. It’s impossible for you to enter the Li family in this lifetime! Don’t think that you can be fearless just because Limo has you in his heart! Don’t you understand who the woman in Limo’s heart is?”
You saw everything just now. Do you even exist in Limo’s heart?! You keep saying that you’re in love with Limo and that you love each other. Yet, you’re talking to us about your relationship with Limo. Are you using this kind of self-deception to talk to us?!
Mo Xiaona trembled in anger. “I’m not lying to myself!”
“You didn’t? Then why did you go against Qingzhi time and time again? Do you really need me to list everything you did back then?”
Mo Xiaona’s pupils constricted and she didn’t dare to speak for a moment!
“You already know that you have a guilty conscience, yet you still want to fantasize? Give up!”
Mo Xiaona’s heart skipped a beat and tears finally fell from her eyes. In the end, she bit her lips and turned to leave.
Qiao Zhilan watched her run out coldly before her eyes flashed. She let out a sigh and sat on the sofa.
The old lady heaved a long sigh.
She sat on the sofa with her eyes closed and remained silent.
She knew that the relationship between Li Mo and Qing Yaozhi needed time to develop. As long as the two of them had a chance to get along, Li Mo would definitely realize how good Qing Zhi was and realize that the woman he truly cared about was actually Qing Zhi.
However, she didn’t expect him to be so stupid. He was clearly worried about her and cared about her. His body and mind were all on Qingzhi, but he didn’t know anything.
As a result, things had come to this.
She had forced Qingzhi to the point where she was determined to get a divorce.
—
Xu Qingzhi was placed on the soft bed by Li Mo. She struggled restlessly as he bent down and trapped her under the blanket.
“Let go of me!” She continued to struggle as she tried her best to push him away.
Impatient, Li Mo pressed her hands above her head.
“Behave yourself!”
Xu Qingzhi’s eyes were red as she stared at him.
“Haven’t I behaved myself enough? I’ll really fulfill your wishes. Limo, everything I said just now is true. I won’t pester you anymore…”
“Behave yourself, my foot!” Li Mo didn’t want to hear any of her current topics.
“You’re the one who wants to get married, and you’re the one who wants a divorce. What do you take me for?! Are you playing with me?”
Xu Qingzhi bit her lips and looked at him. She seemed to have calmed down.
