Chapter 1575  : Mo Xicheng Reinstated (48)

For the sake of not putting Mo Zhi in a difficult position, she would rather not beg for his help but Mo Xicheng’s.

Even though she knew very well that Mo Hai had treated Mo Zhi like his only son. And as for Mo Xicheng himself, although now the truth was out, compared to Mo Hai and Li Shu, he was also now in a very awkward position

Mo Xicheng squinted as he looked at Yao Lili.

While Li Shu, who was next to Mo Xicheng, had started to get anxious.

She did not know how Mo Xicheng would choose, but if he were to plead on Yao Lili’s behalf, she would not be able to agree because she hated that woman too much.

There was no way she could forgive Yao Lili, or even herself.

When she looked back, she had even begun developing a strong resentment to how Mo Hai had treated Mo Xicheng.

She wanted to speak, but felt uncertain.

She was even feeling a tinge of jealousy.

Yao Lili had been with Mo Xicheng since he was a child, for sure, the man would have some affection for her.

For so many years, they had relied on each other as mother and son.

As she contemplated this, she heard Mo Xicheng saying to Yao Lili, “I’m very sorry, it was Madam Mo’s child that you took away, not mine.”

The moment the remark fell, the policemen standing by the side guffawed uncontrollably.

It instantly lightened up the atmosphere in the room.

And Li Shu instantly looked better.

She looked at Mo Xicheng with approval in her eyes.

After being brought up by Yao Lili for many years, he had not turned out crooked.

On the contrary, he was a very discerning young man.

Whereas Mo Zhi, whom she had brought up, was now looking at her and Mo Hai with much hatred in his eyes.

Obviously, his own mother had done wrong. Obviously, Mo Xicheng was the victim.

Li Shu cast her gaze down at this observation.

On the other hand, Mo Xicheng’s remark agitated Yao Lili. She froze and looked at the young man in shock. Then she shrieked, “Mo Xicheng, do you have a conscience?! For so many years I fed and educated you, but this is how you treat me? You know very well that if you say a word to your mother, Li Shu, she will let me off!”

Mo Xicheng narrowed his eyes and asked, “And why should I plead with Madam Mo?”

“Madam Mo” again.

It stung her.

Mo Xicheng held something against them. Since the truth had been out, a few hours had passed, but he had yet to call her “Mom.”

As Li Shu wondered about this, Yao Lili spoke again, “No matter what, the gratitude you owe to the person who brought you up is greater than to the person who brought you into this world. How could you do this? Aren’t you afraid of being labeled ungrateful?!”

Mo Xicheng cast his gaze down and said nothing.

Yao Lili wanted to go on and talk herself out of this, however Li Shu immediately got on her feet and said, “Policeman comrades, may I trouble you and ask you to take this woman away now? I don’t wish to engage with her.”

This would probably save Mo Xicheng from being put on the spot.

The policemen nodded and said, “Sure.”

They walked to Yao Lili.

She widened her eyes in immediate panic, crying. “No, I don’t want to go to jail! Mo Xicheng, help me! Mo Zhi, help me!”

Yao Lili finally called out to Mo Zhi. Everyone’s gaze now fell on him.

When he heard his own name being called, he turned away reflexively. He fell silent and looked away, refusing to meet Yao Lili’s eyes.
