Chapter 498 - Eating humble pie

Nodding his head, Mo Yichen knew that Xiangyan was not to blame because he was too young to be able to doubt people’s words.

“Aunt Gu Yan and I love you so much. How can we abandon you? We’re just too busy to come back these days.”

Mo Yichen knew that although Xiangyan was young, but he often thought a lot of things. It was inevitable to encounter this situation when he grew up in such a family. That’s why Li Yunhong’s words had a great influence on him.

The world of children was pure, without any deception and cheat. Therefore, he took it for granted that everything was just the same as him and people would never lie to him. But his closest family member had lied to him.

“I see. Is it that grandma lied to me?” Mo Xiangyan opened his watery eyes.

Mo Yichen thought for a moment and said, “Grandma didn’t mean to deceive you. In fact, it is for your own good. I can’t come back to see you for a long time, and then you must be restless. Grandma said so and you would not do that.”

Mo Xiangyan nodded but he did not understand it completely.

Up to now, Mo Yichen was still maintaining the image of Li Yunhong in Mo Xiangyan’ mind. In fact, it was also good for Mo Xiangyan. A clear understand of this world, could only let him lose the original innocence. This was probably the biggest punishment for a child.

“I know we are wrong, but we have reasons. Only by working hard can we earn money and take you to the amusement park, to eat delicious food. But we still need to apologize to you. But now you need to listen to the doctor’s words and take care of yourself. We will take you to play when you feel well, ok?”

Mo Xiangyan nodded his head sweetly when he heard Mo Yichen’s words. Perhaps it’s the children’s world. There was no wicked idea and they just trusted whatever people said.

In Manla’s home, Gu Yan was cooking carefully, including soup and dishes. Manla lovingly looked at her.

Gu Yan was busy with her work in normal days, but she could dedicate to take care of Mo Xiangyan when he was injured. But Mo Yichen’s mother was never kind to her. A stone should be warmed over such a long time.

“I don’t know what good you can get? Together with Mo Yichen. You are always bullied. His mother doesn’t treat you well. Is it worth?”

Hearing Manla’s words, Gu Yan stopped for a moment and then continued cutting vegetables, “I don’t care so much, as long as we love each other. Mo Yichen’s mother has a bad attitude to me just because she is afraid that I would be bad to Xiangyan. She won’t be like that if she knows I am Xiangyan’s mother.”

“What? Li Yunhong still doesn’t know that you are Xiangyan’s mother?”

“Yes. Why are you so surprised? It’s not a big deal. Even if she knows, it won’t change anything.” Gu Yan looked indifferently, while Manla couldn’t stand it.

“If Mo Yichen can’t even handle this, what else can he do? He let you bear all chagrins, and he didn’t take some responsibilities. He just knows how to lie you with rhetoric.”

“Well, it’s not his fault. I don’t want him to tell Li Yunhong that I am Xiangyan’s mother.” Gu Yan said while she was cutting vegetables.

Manla was puzzled by Gu Yan’s action. Nowadays, which woman didn’t show off when she gave birth to an heir to a group? But Gu Yan said nothing.

“There is a reason why I don’t let Mo Yichen tell her the truth. I have other fish to fry.”

Seeing Gu Yan was not willing to say, Manla did not ask again. She just cared Gu Yan. She suffered so much pain and grievance, but she still did not change Li Yunhong’s attitude.

Manla knew that Gu Yan had her reasons. As long as she was happy, just let her go.

“You check whether the soup is okay? I must be quicker to go. Xiangyan is still waiting in the hospital.”

“Ok, you only have your baby in your mind. You are so good-natured. If I were you, I could give up, let alone continue to suffer here.” Manla felt it was unfair to Gu Yan.

“Come on. Can you tease me after all things are done? Please help me now.”

Gu Yan was not willing to say more, and Manla also did not ask.

At this time, the meal Gu Yan did for Xiangyan was also completed.

Gu Yan put the meal into the lunch box and cleaned up everything. Then She took the lunch box and went out with Manla.

Manla felt Gu Yan should deserve better. As long as they talked about affairs of Mo Yichen and Gu Yan, Manla became angry. Obviously, Gu Yan suffered so many grievances, but no one spoke for her, and Mo Yichen also did nothing.

As soon as they reached the door of Mo Xiangyan’s ward, they saw Li Yunhong standing there.

Manla thought, “It’s a narrow road to meet the person you don’t want to see.” At the first sight, Manla knew it was difficult to get along with her who looked like a rich old lady.

She was aggressive on her high horse without any respect for others.

Seeing Li Yunhong, Manla straightened up as if she was cheering for herself and Gu Yan.

Gu Yan nervously clutched the bag of the lunch box. She didn’t dare to walk to Li Yunhong until Manla looked at her and held her hand.

“Aunt, I cooked meals for Xiangyan.” Gu Yan showed lunch box to Li Yunhong.

“Oh? You are such a good person? Why can’t I believe?” Li Yunhong said sarcastically.

Although Gu Yan prepared mentally to meet her, she did not expect Li Yunhong was so aggressive. “Aunt, I really don’t mean anything malicious. I also like Xiangyan very much and I’m really sorry to see him hurt. I want to try my best to take care of him.”

“How could I believe you?”

“How could you be like this? Gu Yan had worked hard to make the meal and brought it to your grandson, but why did you say so? How did Xinagyan get hurt when you looked after him at home? You’re his grandmother. Who knows whether it’s you who did this on purpose?”

Manla didn’t need to please Li Yunhong, so she talked back angrily, which made Li Yunhong’s face blushed.
