She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment

Chapter 1431

Chapter 1431: He Is My Son (4)

Following this, a large hand clasped around her arm to steady her.

Li Shu froze and lifted her head.
She saw Mo Xicheng standing in front of her.

There was a bandage around his head still.

He stood there now, looking rather pale, but eyeing her with an awkward expression of care and concern.

She could feel the warmth of his hand around her arm through the thin material of her sleeves, and it felt like the only warmth left in the world.

Her eyes filled with tears again and her vision blurred once more.

She tried hard to take a good look at Mo Xicheng, but her vision was blurry.
She rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand.

Then a tissue appeared before her.

She paused and lifted her head.
Mo Xicheng, in his hospital gown, was looking back at her.

He was thoughtfully holding out a napkin to her.

Her lips moved but no words came, as though she had lost her voice.

She quickly lowered her head and calmed herself down.
Then she used the tissue to dry her eyes.

She stared at Mo Xicheng steadily.

As she did so, Mo Zhi’s words came to her mind.

Very quickly, her tears flowed again.

At this point, she heard hasty footsteps behind her and spun around.

Li Shu froze and straightened her posture.

Then she heard Yao Lili’s voice, “Why are you two here?”

Li Shu narrowed her eyes and felt her fingers curl tightly.

She was shaken out of her emotional state.

Although she had just overheard that conversation between the woman and Mo Zhi, as yet there was no proof.

If Yao Lili found out that she had overheard the conversation, then both she and Mo Xicheng would be in danger.

Because…

Yao Lili would not let them go easy.
Besides, all this time, she had not interfered with the family’s affairs.

Mo Zhi had also been managing the business and had his own faithful supporters.
And he had money.

To add to this, she couldn’t possibly just take this as the whole truth based on Yao Lili and Mo Zhi’s conversation alone.
She could not confront Yao Lili on this matter before she had a strong basis.

At this thought, Li Shu’s expression calmed down at once.

She looked at Mo Xicheng and gulped.
Then she suddenly spoke up, “I’m just having a few words with Mo Xicheng here.
What has it got to do with you?”

Yao Lili paused and probed, “You were talking? Were you both here together… all this time?”

Li Shu’s became guarded upon hearing these words.

Li Shu’s back was to Yao Lili and, in that instant, she saw a puzzled expression flashed in Mo Xicheng’s eyes.

She immediately said, “That’s right, I was talking to Mo Xicheng here all this time.
Why?”

Yao Lili looked at Mo Xicheng disbelievingly and asked to confirm, “You tell me, were you two talking here all this time?”

Li Shu’s heart sank.

That was it.
Mo Xicheng was still unaware of the situation and he would treat Yao Lili like his mother.
And if he told the truth…

As this thought ran through her mind, she heard Mo Xicheng reply, “That’s right.”

Li Shu was immediately relieved.

Yao Lili threw a puzzled look at Mo Xicheng before she said, “Ok.”

Half-believing and half-doubting, she turned and went away.

After the woman left, Li Shu looked at Mo Xicheng and started to say something.
But she stopped.
The man turned towards her and asked, “Do you… have something to tell me?”
