Chapter 1080 - Two Men Vying For A Lady (12)
Under pressure from both his parents, Mo Zhi lost it.
He was stunned by the slap initially, but he very soon recovered and shouted, “Dad, you actually hit me! You hit me because of this ugly monster!”
Feeling terribly wronged, his eyes reddened as he said, “You two got together and tricked me into this blind date, you even insisted she wasn’t ugly. Look at her, are you blind?”
“What right do you have to sacrifice my marital bliss for the sake of the family business?! There is no point in forcing it.”
“I’ll have you know that I will not have this woman. Simply looking at her revolts me!”
Just at this point, Mo Xicheng’s voice was heard coming from the doorway, “What’s this about?”
Everyone turned around simultaneously.
At once, Mo Xicheng’s gaze fell on Shi Nianyao. His pupils shrank back.
Though Mo Zhi regained his composure upon hearing Mo Xicheng’s voice. Pointing at Mo Xicheng, he shouted, “If anyone has to marry her, let Mo Xicheng do it! He is a son of the Mo family too. Although illegitimate, he and this ugly monster are a perfect match.”
Dad Mo said angrily at once, “Stop speaking nonsense!”
As though he had found an anchor, Mo Zhi said, “I’m not speaking nonsense! Mo Xicheng grew up with the Mo family’s money, he should make sacrifices for the family.”
Having said this, Mo Zhi walked up to Mo Xicheng and continued, “Although that girlfriend of yours is pretty, but what’s the use of that alone? If you marry this ugly monster, on the other hand, you’ll have lots of benefits.”
Mo Zhi went on, “Dad, Mom, I’m not going to marry this woman anyway!! Let Mo Xicheng marry her.”
Mo Zhi’s words both greatly shamed and infuriated Li Shu.
She glared at Mo Zhi in disbelief.
Indeed, she had spent little time with her son in all of these years.
But whenever they met, Mo Zhi would be on his best behavior, never like today.
Right up until now, she had not known that Mo Zhi’s character was so poor.
Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan looked appalled, especially Shi Jinyan, who glared at Mo Zhi as though he was going to tear him apart.
When Li Shu saw this, she quickly reached for Si Jingyu’s hand. Tottering, at the verge of collapsing, she said, “Jingyu, I will punish him well today. Please, don’t be angry.”
Si Jingyu withdrew her hand and said, “Li Shu, I think we ought to leave now.”
Sighing, Li Shu replied, “Ok, I will come by your place to apologize another day.”
Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan then got up to their feet and got ready to leave.
At this point, Dad Mo threw an angry glance at Mo Zhi.
At once, Mo Zhi knew he was in trouble.
If they weren’t able to reach an marriage agreement with the Shi family today, they could very well part as enemies.
This must not happen.
At this critical point, he racked his brain and looked at Shi Nianyao. Suddenly, he jumped in front of her and said, “Ugly- er Sister Yao Yao, look, this is my brother. He’s better looking than me. How about him for a husband?”
Shi Nianyao’s gaze moved towards Mo Xicheng, at whom Mo Zhi was pointing.
She creased her brow tightly. How miserable.
Damn.
Why did she have to run into her idol?
She couldn’t be looking worse.
He may perhaps, possibly not be able to recognize it was her?
At this thought, Mo Zhi looked at Mo Xicheng and said, “Hurry over here and cheer Sister Yao Yao up!”
