“Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I’m leaving. I’m in a hurry,” Mo Yan said as she was getting impatient from Mo Lian’s dawdling.
“You!”
Mo Lian was filled with anger and she almost couldn’t catch her breath. She gulped down a mouthful of red wine before glaring fiercely at Mo Yan as she said, “You said that I’m an illegitimate daughter. Your younger brother isn’t legitimate either. Not only is he an illegitimate child, he’s also an illegitimate child from God knows where.”
“What did you say!” Mo Yan slammed the table and stood up, her eyes filled with raging anger.
Seeing that Mo Yan was angry, Mo Lian calmed down instead. She chuckled and said, “Why are you so agitated? Didn’t you want to know the truth? I’m telling you the truth!”
Mo Yan clenched her fists tightly, and her teeth clenched so hard that they hurt. She resisted the urge to beat Mo Lian up, trying her best to finish listening to her.
“I asked Dad. Dad and your mother were indeed married. I didn’t know before, so I admit that Dad and my mother were indeed in the wrong. Dad accidentally had sex with my mother in the second year of his and your mother’s marriage. At first, Dad and my mother didn’t know that my mother was pregnant, but as her belly grew bigger and she was unable to have an abortion, dad could only send my mother and I to a faraway place.”
“Although he would occasionally send us money, he was barely present in my childhood. Later on, after having you, my father became more and more reluctant to visit me. One year, my high fever reached 39 degrees. My mother was out working and wasn’t at home. I could only endure it by myself. At night, my mother sent me to the hospital. The doctor said that if I came any later, my brain might have been damaged for good.”
At this point, Mo Lian smiled bitterly at Mo Yan and drank a mouthful of red wine.
Mo Yan frowned. She did not expect Mo Lian to have lived like this in the past. She also did not understand why Mo Lian was telling her this? To gain her sympathy? What was the reason?
“After that incident, my mother did not dare to go out to work and focused on taking care of me at home. This caused a lot of financial problems for us. Later on, my mother had no choice but to tell Dad that we wanted to live together. At first, Dad didn’t agree. In order to make Dad feel that she was valuable, my mother went to learn about Dad’s work. This gave us a chance to go back.”
“But even so, Dad didn’t divorce your mother.”
“Then why did he divorce her later?” Mo Yan’s heart was beating faster and faster.
“Why? I just said the reason! Your younger brother, Mo Cheng, is not Dad’s child. He is the result of your mother having an affair with someone else!”
After saying that, Mo Lian looked at Mo Yan with a smile.
“If you are going to ask me how I know, it’s because I accidentally saw Dad and Mo Cheng’s paternity test! In the beginning, it was indeed Dad who betrayed your mother first. But later on, your mother also cuckolded Dad and made him raise someone else’s child for so long. Heh!”
“Shut up!”
“Dad was extremely upset, so he requested for a divorce. Afterwards, he brought my mother and I home.”
“You’re lying to me. You’re lying to me, aren’t you!” Mo Yan yelled at Mo Lian.
Meanwhile, Mo Lian also revealed a mocking expression towards Mo Yan. “You’re clearly the one who wants to know the truth, yet you still say that I’m lying to you.”
“I don’t believe it. It’s not true.”
Mo Yan fell onto the chair in a daze and muttered to herself.
“No, this is impossible. Mo Cheng is Dad’s child.”
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Mo Lian saw that Mo Yan was still immersed in her own world, so she took the initiative to open the door.
“May I know if Miss Mo Lian is in the room?”
A waiter stood outside the door and asked Mo Lian.
Mo Lian didn’t know who was here for her, so she could only frown and say, “I am.”
“It’s like this. There’s a lady in the hall who wants to hand you a bouquet of flowers. She hopes that you can go and get it.”
“She wants me to go and get it?” Mo Lian asked, puzzled.
“Yes, that’s what the lady said.”
Mo Lian glanced at Mo Yan, who was in a daze, and then walked out with the waiter.
When they arrived at the hall, Mo Lian saw the woman holding the flowers.
After asking around, Mo Lian found out that the lady was just a flower delivery woman. The flower seller had asked her to call Mo Lian out and hand the flowers to her personally.
Mo Lian felt confused as she walked back with the flowers. After looking at the bouquet carefully, Mo Lian noticed that there was a card hidden in the bouquet.
There were five words written on it: [Proceed according to the plan]
