Chapter 1838: Revenge
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“So, I was the one who took you away from the corridor that night…”
Xu Qingzhi looked up at him as she stood quietly, her eyes brimming with tears.
“Weren’t you drunk that night?”
Li Mo pursed his lips. “I’m drunk, but not to the extent of being unconscious.”
He paused and lowered his voice. “… It’s just a perfect excuse…”
!!
Xu Qingzhi wiped her tears and sniffed.
“An excuse? An excuse to prevent me from losing face and shifting the blame?”
Li Mo’s lips twitched as he lowered his gaze to Xu Qingzhi. He felt that something was amiss.
“I… This… I just… made a huge mistake…”
Xu Qingzhi raised an eyebrow. There were still tears on her face, but her eyes were clear.
“Although I really want to forgive you, Limo, the things you’ve done recently have made me feel uneasy. If I forgive you just like that, it will make me seem too spineless…”
Strike while the iron is hot!
Since she knew what Limo was thinking, she had to settle scores with him!
Of course, it was possible to take revenge!
Limo hurriedly hugged her. “I can apologize… You can do whatever you want, but as long as you don’t continue to divorce me…”
Divorce?
‘Of course not?’
She wanted to torture him for the rest of her life!
She didn’t say anything. Limo was silent for a while. Seeing that she didn’t move, he said slowly,
“But what can I do to make you forgive me?”
Xu Qingzhi broke free from him. “Who said I’m going to forgive you?”
Li Mo frowned. “Xu Qingzhi…”
The moment he spoke, he looked down. Xu Qingzhi’s eyes were filled with grievance and tears.
There was a lot of snow on the top of her head. Limo reached out to brush the snow off her head and touched her cheek.
“Don’t be like this. As long as you tell me what to do, I’ll do as you say… We have to live our lives, right?”
“You bullied me back then. How can I live with you peacefully?! Limo, you’re too much…”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Then, they fell like snowflakes in the sky.
Li Mo’s temples throbbed.
He suddenly felt that his future days were going to be miserable.
“Okay, okay, okay. Let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s talk about it in the future. Be careful of your son…”
Xu Qingzhi’s tears flowed even harder. “Now you know to be careful of the son in my stomach. What happened in the past?”
Li Mo was speechless.
“Limo, tell me, aren’t you going overboard?”
Li Mo nodded. “Yes, yes, yes, I’ve gone overboard! It’s all my fault…”
“You’re not sincere at all!”
Xu Qingzhi wiped her tears and burst into tears again!
“You’re too much…”
Li Mo had a headache. Just as he was about to comfort her helplessly, he felt a sharp pain on his back.
What followed was a series of slaps.
“You were fine just now, but you turned around and bullied Qingzhi… Who asked you to bully her again? Who asked you to bully her again… You ungrateful brat…”
There was no doubt.
The person who was hitting and scolding her must be Old Lady Li.
Qiao Zhilan, who had followed behind, didn’t care. She went straight to Xu Qingzhi, who was crying pitifully, and hugged her shoulders.
“Don’t cry. Let Grandma help you deal with him.”
Xu Qingzhi wiped her tears and looked up at the man who was avoiding the old lady. Then, she lowered her head to wipe her tears.
Qiao Zhilan looked up at Li Mo helplessly and pulled Xu Qingzhi.
“Let’s go. The snow is so heavy. Don’t catch a cold again. You’re pregnant now. Being sick is very dangerous for you and the baby.”
Xu Qingzhi nodded and allowed Qiao Zhilan to lead him away.
Before she left, she turned to look at Limo.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Limo hurriedly shouted, “Xu Qingzhi! Stop right there!”
Because she was anxious, her tone didn’t sound too good.
“How dare you scold her! Brat, are you refusing to change your ways?!”
Clearly, the old lady’s slap did not cause much pain to Limo.
Xu Qingzhi’s lips twitched as she followed Qiao Zhilan out of the hotel.
Li Mo wanted to chase after her, but the old lady stopped him.
“Stop right there! Limo, you’re good. Everything you said at the venue was fake, right? You actually deceived so many people. Now that you’re here, you’re bullying Qingzhi again! She loves you so much, how much has she suffered? Brat… you actually have the heart…”
“I didn’t bully her!”
“Then why is she crying so sadly?!”
Li Mo choked. “… I’ve bullied her before.”
“Hmph! You know that too! Then do you know how overboard you went back then?”
Li Mo pursed his lips and hummed vaguely.
“Have you thought of how to treat Qingzhi?”
Limo fell silent.
He was good to her!
But how could she forgive him?
This was what gave him the biggest headache!
Seeing that he seemed to be conflicted, Old Lady Li snorted and took two steps forward with her walking stick.
“Qingzhi is so outstanding and there are many people who like her. It doesn’t mean that you’re the only one! If you treat her like you did in the past… I advise you to let go of her as soon as possible! You can’t give her happiness. Someone is fighting to give it to her!”
Li Mo clenched his fists and watched them leave. He didn’t chase after them.
After standing there for a long time, she heaved a sigh of defeat and scratched her head in frustration.
“President Li?”
Behind him was Feng Geng’s voice. Li Mo turned to look at him and his expression froze. He put his hand down and his face returned to its usual coldness.
“What’s the matter?”
Feng Geng shook his head. “Oh, I just wanted to ask if you want me to send you home.”
Limo was silent for a while. Feeling a little frustrated, he stuffed his hands into his pockets.
“Let’s go.”
Feng Geng immediately took action.
“Okay!”
When she walked out of the hotel, Li Mo’s footsteps were fast. However, just as she walked out of the hotel, she saw the car with Xu Qingzhi and Qiao Zhilan drive away.
After taking two quick steps, she gave up.
After getting into the car, he took out his phone and called Qiao Zhilan.
The call went through.
Qiao Zhilan asked, “What’s the matter?”
Xu Qingzhi’s low sobs could be heard through the phone. Li Mo tightened his grip.
“Send Qingzhi to our house!”
Qiao Zhilan paused and laughed. “Which one is your house?”
“Our wedding room!”
“She’s very sad now. She probably doesn’t want to go back.”
Li Mo clenched and unclenched his fists. Finally, he took a deep breath and tried his best to soften his voice.
“Mom…”
Qiao Zhilan immediately laughed. “Aiyo, I didn’t expect my son to call me ‘Mom’ so well one day!”
Xu Qingzhi turned her head and blinked curiously.
Qiao Zhilan smiled and turned on the speaker.
Li Mo’s voice continued, “… I can tell that you like Qingzhi very much. So, at this time, you have to stand on the same side as me and help me coax Qingzhi so that she can continue to be your daughter-in-law. You have to provide me with a chance to interact with her and not cause trouble like this… This way, she will feel even more aggrieved… If she feels aggrieved, she will throw a tantrum. If she really gets a divorce…”
Qiao Zhilan glanced at Xu Qingzhi and smiled. “How do you want me to help you?”
Li Mo hesitated for a while before glancing at Feng Geng, who was driving. He lowered his voice and said, “Put in a good word for me in front of her and praise me more…”
Even though his voice was very low, Feng Geng’s steering wheel still swerved a few inches. The car swayed for a moment before stabilizing.
On Xu Qingzhi’s side, she was stunned when she heard Li Mo lower his voice.
Qiao Zhilan covered her mouth and tried her best not to laugh.
When she regained her senses, Xu Qingzhi blushed and couldn’t help but laugh.
This man was really…
How shameless!
Qiao Zhilan suppressed her laughter and said, “You’re anxious now? Haven’t we done this before?”
Li Mo rubbed his forehead helplessly. “Yes, I’m anxious. That’s why you and Grandma have to help me. Now, send her home…”
“So what if I send her home? She’s in a bad mood now. If I provoke her again when I see you, it will affect her emotions and implicate the child in her stomach…”
“…But you can’t separate us like this… Anyway, I don’t care. If you bring her back to the Li family, I’ll go there.”
Qiao Zhilan raised an eyebrow. “Why are you so shameless now?”
“I’ll go wherever she goes anyway! Do as you deem fit!”
With that, he hung up.
Qiao Zhilan put away her phone and smiled at Xu Qingzhi.
“You should know that Limo is serious this time, right?”
Xu Qingzhi smiled shyly.
Of course she knew.
Just now at the banquet, outside the hotel, she had already known about his shameless, nervous, and silly act.
She loved him. It was impossible for her not to see that.
That was why she decided to take revenge on him.
However, now she knew that there was no such thing as being shameless.
Li Mo had really refreshed her bottom line time and time again.
“So, where do you want to go later?”
Xu Qingzhi thought for a while and said in a low voice, “She will still…”
The best place to go was the apartment she had just rented, but she didn’t want her elders to know that she had moved out.
She didn’t continue, but it was enough for Qiao Zhilan to understand.
She smiled and confirmed the direction with the driver.
In the car behind them, after Limo hung up, he pinched the space between his eyebrows with a solemn expression.
She was thinking about how to face Xu Qingzhi so that she wouldn’t be agitated and cry.
What was this called? She had brought this upon herself.
He was really afraid that she would be upset and cry!
What a little ancestor.
What should she do?
Feng Geng subconsciously sighed again. He looked through the rearview mirror again and again. Finally, he coughed softly and said,
“President Li…”
