Chapter 494 - Why?

But the purpose of the talk today was to solve this matter.

Li Yunhong glanced at Mo Yichen, who sat far away, and said to Gu Yan.

“How can you leave Mo Yichen?”

“What?” Much to Gu Yan’s surprise, Li Yunhong was so straightforward, but then she was a little angry.

“Why can you do this?”

Hearing what Gu Yan said, Li Yunhong goggled and began to laugh as if she had heard something ridiculous. Then she said to Gu Yan.

“Why? Just because he is my son!”

Then Li Yunhong began to scold Gu Yan. She was really full of disgust with Gu Yan, because it was Gu Yan who made Mo Yichen who raised meticulously by her, become what he was now.

Her grandson was also injured because of Gu Yan, and now she could do nothing.

It was all Gu Yan’s fault.

Li Yunhong couldn’t bear it anymore and thus kept venting her emotions to Gu Yan.

It was not surprising. But what Li Yunhong said were intolerable, as if Gu Yan was the worst woman in the world.

If someone heard those words, they would probably feel sympathy for Gu Yan, because no one with a temper could stand it.

If it were before, Gu Yan would definitely be furious. Maybe she would have a quarrel with Li Yunhong and then just walk away.

But today’s Gu Yan was an exception.

Hearing Li Yunhong’s words without any expression, she slowly started to speak while Li Yunhong was astonished.

“It is impossible for me to leave Yichen. He is so important to me. Even though Xiangyan doesn’t know that I am his mother, the blood relationship will never be broken.”

Gu Yan suddenly looked very happy, probably thinking of Mo Yichen and Xiangyan.

Li Yunhong didn’t know what Gu Yan wanted to do. She was ready to have a quarrel with Gu Yan just now, even a fight.

She just wanted to express her disgust with Gu Yan, and made Gu Yan leave Mo Yichen.

However, Gu Yan completely endured her words, and didn’t talk back to her.

“Even so, I admit that you are Xiangyan’s mother. But you are busy with your work instead of taking care of him. Just see what you are doing these days!”

Li Yunhong interrupted Gu Yan directly and expressed that she didn’t want to listen to this at all, but she couldn’t bear Gu Yan usually went out for business and that she had contact with many men.

Indeed, due to work, Gu Yan had to go out to get new customers and make designs. These required contact with many people, not to mention dining out and attending various feasts.

However, Gu Yan shook her head after hearing it.

“I don’t think there is anything wrong with me. I’m in contact with people, but that’s just work. My husband is Mo Yichen.”

Li Yunhong ridiculed and said.

“Mo Yichen is your husband? Don’t you think you are betraying him?”

Gu Yan simply couldn’t understand Li Yunhong. What did she mean when she said “betraying”? She didn’t do anything outrageous but just insisted on her own job.

Taking a deep breath in front of Li Yunhong, Gu Yan continued.

“I start my current job with Mo Yichen’s agreement, and he supports me.”

Gu Yan wanted to tell Li Yunhong that it was none of her business.

Of course, she did say so.

Li Yunhong was so angry that she wanted to leave, but when she saw Mo Yichen, a stratagem came to her mind. She knew what to do.

She sneered and said to Gu Yan.

“Really? We will see.”

Hearing that word, Gu Yan felt strange. What did Li Yunhong mean to let her see? But she realized it right away.

“Mo Yichen.”

Li Yunhong called Mo Yichen over.

Mo Yichen, who was in dissatisfaction over there, heard somebody calling him. He thought it was Gu Yan and became happy, but after realized it was Li Yunhong, he came over coldly.

There was a light of cunning in Li Yunhong’s eyes, which gave Gu Yan a premonition that something bad was going to happen.

“I talked to Gu Yan, and just wanted her to leave you.”

Gu Yan didn’t expect that Li Yunhong would say it outright, and then looked at her in surprise. Hearing it, Mo Yichen was also annoyed. But when he was about to yell at Li Yunhong, she interrupted him.

“But…”

Li Yunhong said with a long tone, as if she kept them guessing or meant more.

Mo Yichen was also confused, and could only suppress his anger, keeping hearing what Li Yunhong would say.

“But Gu Yan said it was impossible, because she knows you love her.”

“Gu Yan…” Hearing it, Gu Yan was a bit shy, and Mo Yichen turned to Gu Yan in surprise.

There was a sweet atmosphere between them.

However, Li Yunhong suddenly broke the atmosphere and queried directly.

“Mo Yichen, I only want to ask you one question. Can you endure your lover contacting other men all day long, going out for business every day, and eating and drinking with others?”

There was nothing but silence.

Gu Yan was stunned by Li Yunhong’s sharp question.

It happened to be the most sensitive point of their affection.

The mutual trust.

Did Mo Yichen really not worry about Gu Yan going out with others?

Impossible. It was Mo Yichen’s love for Gu Yan that suppressed this feeling.

It was always nothing, and the two people still trusted each other. But when Li Yunhong put forward it, the thing changed.

Although, Gu Yan thought that Mo Yichen would say no.

“Yichen, do you worry about that?”

Gu Yan looked at Mo Yichen hopefully. She hoped she would hear the answer she wanted.

But Mo Yichen…

At first, when he heard Li Yunhong’s questioning, he wanted to say that he didn’t care about. But at the moment he spoke, Jiang Jingcheng and other men who were acquainted with Gu Yan suddenly flashed in his mind.

It felt like something blocked his mouth.

Mo Yichen couldn’t speak.

And the silence was the answer.

Gu Yan was disappointed, staring at silent Mo Yichen, hoping that he could deny it.

But all she got was silence.

The sparkles in Gu Yan’s eyes disappeared suddenly.

She didn’t say a word. Then she gently got the coffee on the table and took a sip.

It was bitter.

Seeing the state of the two in front of her, Li Yunhong felt very complacent.

She knew that if she asked this question, Mo Yichen might be silent, and such a silent answer would only drive a wedge between them.

“I won.” Li Yunhong thought.

“See? Mo Yichen doesn’t want you to go out for business all day long.” Li Yunhong sneered at Gu Yan, and her eyes were full of sarcasm.

As for Mo Yichen, facing such a scene, he did not say a word, and expressed his attitude with silence.

After taking a sip of coffee, Gu Yan picked up her bag and left, while Mo Yichen didn’t do anything.

She was bitterly disappointed by what Mo Yichen did.

But seeing Gu Yan leave, Mo Yichen felt painful and immediately stood up to chase her out.

He didn’t even give Li Yunhong a look.
