Chapter 257: Whatever She Says Goes

The jealousy was also overwhelming.

She and Mo Yesi had grown up together.

And she was the only female friend he had by his side.

But Mo Yesi had never been this gentle towards her before, nor had he looked at her so lovingly.

Not even once.

They’d known each other for over 20 years and shared a close bond.

This was the treatment that even she never received, how could Qiao Mianmian deserve it?

She was indignant as much as she was jealous.

She should’ve been Mo Yesi’s wife.

Everyone around her, including the elders of the Mo family, had thought that she would surely marry Mo Yesi.

Everyone assumed they would be together.

But why had he married another woman?

She was obviously more compatible with him!

She was losing rationality with the bitterness clouding her mind.

Shen Rou clenched her teeth. “Ah Si brought her along for a meal with us on the day I returned. Shaoqing said that she’s still a student.”

“What, a student?”

Madam Mo frowned. “So you saw her long ago? Why didn’t you tell me about this?”

Shen Rou felt aggrieved to be have been questioned this way. “Aunt Mo, it was Ah Si who didn’t allow me to let you know about it. He said that Mianmian was timid and wasn’t prepared to meet the rest of you yet. He was only going to bring her here when she was willing to come.

“If he found out that I revealed this before he even brought her back, he’d definitely hold it against me.”

Madam Mo didn’t look too happy.

She sneered and said, “Timid? So Ah Si is saying that until she’s willing to come home with him, he’s going to keep this from us?”

Shen Rou bit her lip and quietly said, “I guess so. Ah Si really pampers her. He said that whatever she says goes.”

“Hmph.”

Madam Mo’s expression was even more awful now. “Ah Si has always been a very opinionated person who rarely listened to others. He actually changed that part of him? His wife looks like a nice person. I wouldn’t have guessed that she was so scheming.”

Shen Rou looked up at Qiao Mianmian and then said as casually as she could muster, “She’s rather capable to be able to get him to marry her without letting any of you know. I’d thought that all of you had already approved of their marriage. I really wouldn’t have guessed that Ah Si did all of this behind your backs.

“This isn’t his usual style.

“Under normal circumstances, if he really liked someone, shouldn’t he want to bring her back to meet you first and then discuss the marriage together? The least he could do was to arrange a formal meeting between the two families. I just don’t understand why he has to do it so secretly when it doesn’t have to be this way.

“I thought about it for a long while and figured that there’s only one possibility.”

“What possibility?”

Madam Mo was angry, but she hadn’t flared up.

However, with what Shen Rou had said, Madam Mo became increasingly somber.

She immediately felt that Qiao Mianmian couldn’t be a good girl.

Which good girl would do something like that?

Seducing her son and making him marry her in secret!
