Chapter 1384 - Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (57)

Yao Lili had no comeback to Mo Xicheng’s remark.

She frowned again and said, “But I did also say you must keep a low profile. Your movie has started screening and it’s getting a lot of attention. If you get more exposure and Mo Zhi finds out about it, he’ll think that you’re trying to compete with him.”

“So what? You want money but you don’t let me become popular, so how am I going to earn this money?”

Yao Lili was stumped. Choking for an answer, she frowned and said, “Isn’t the money that you’re getting from playing supporting roles enough for the two of us to spend?”

“You mean it’s enough for you alone.” Mo Xicheng’s tone was expressionless, but the disappointment and despair he felt was unmistakable.

He lowered his head and said, “So that as long as you’re alive, I’ll have to look after you. Then for the rest of my life, I won’t have to get married, have children of my own and have a life of my own, is that right?”

Yao Lili was stunned and replied, “Mo Xicheng, what do you mean by this? Are you blaming me?”

He looked at her coldly and said, “All I want to tell you is that I’m not your puppet.”

Yao Lili was starting to get furious. “Mo Xicheng, are you getting anxious because I don’t let you date Shi Nianyao? I’ll still say the same now, I have no intention of letting you get married or have children.”

“What’s the point of having children? Look at me! I don’t have proper status and consequently, what are you? Every time you go out, people will be pointing at your back and calling you a bastard, son of a mistress, have you ever been happy since you were a child? Since you have never been happy, why would you want a child and perpetuate this misery?”

Mo Xicheng looked at Yao Lili, who had now started talking about her crooked philosophies again. He wanted to laugh sorrowfully.

How had this woman ever developed the shamelessness to give such an unrestrained and brilliant performance?

He retreated a step as he looked at her and said, “So? Why did you scheme to push my girlfriend into Mo Zhi’s embrace?”

Yao Lili’s pupils shrank back at once. “What- what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“You don’t understand. Do you think I really don’t know about what happened at the Royal Family Hotel today?”

Yao Lili started to panic at once. “You—”

“Mom, I thought that if I kept accommodating and giving in, you’d be satisfied. I thought you’d be happy because after all, you’re my Mom. But I had never expected you’d do such a thing.”

Yao Lili but her lip. She knew that no matter how she denied it now, it was useless.

So she straightened her posture and reasoned, “Shi Nianyao was Mo Zhi’s fiancée to begin with. Why did you interfere? Do you want to be a third party like me? Mo Xicheng, let me tell you this, I will not let such a thing happen.”

Mo Xicheng saw that she had widened her eyes fiercely, and there was a viciousness underlying her expression.

Immediately, he turned to walk away.

Seeing that he was leaving, she asked, “Where are you going?”

He halted and turned back to look at her.

He said clearly and deliberately, “From now on, my business has got nothing to do with you.”

“I will transfer money to your account so that you get your monthly allowance, but I hope you will stop interfering in my affairs. As for the Mo family that you’re so concerned with, I can tell you that the one thing I’ve hated most in my life was this unofficial surname. So now, I will go to the police station to see if I can change my surname.”
