"I haven't known Wei Ru for a long time. It's normal that she didn't mention me to you.”Mo Xunjie explained gently," Luo Weiru and I met at a cocktail party. After we got to know each other, we had a good impression of each other and decided to get married. Our marriage was rather rushed, so we didn't inform you.”
Zhao Jiafang's sickly appearance made Mo Xunjie have no choice but to consider how he should explain things to Zhao Jiafang.
Zhao Jiafang shook her head." Don't lie to me." I know Wei Ru's character. She definitely wouldn't hide such a big thing from me. She could hide it from anyone but me. There must be something going on between you and Wei Ru, right?”
Zhao Jiafang's turbid eyes lit up. Although she was old, she was not muddle-headed. Her daughter had relied on her since she was young. Her daughter would never hide a big matter like marriage from her. If her daughter was hiding it from her, it could only mean that she did not want her to know about it. There must be something that her daughter didn't want her to know.
Mo Xunjie didn't expect Zhao Jiafang to be so shrewd. She didn't believe his words, which made things easier for him. It just so happened that he couldn't figure out how to explain everything to Zhao Jiafang about Luo Tao and Luo Weiru.
"Since you already know, I won't beat around the bush with you.”Since Zhao Jiafang had already guessed that things weren't as simple as he had made them out to be, there was no need for Mo Xunjie to continue covering up his lie. He might as well tell her how he had chosen Luo Weiru and how Luo Weiru had agreed to marry him for 30 million yuan.
"Thirty million? Was that child Wei Ru so short of money?”In Zhao Jiafang's impression, Luo Weiru's income was quite good and not too low. "And 30 million is too much! Wei Ru didn't seem like such a greedy child.”
"Young Master Mo, I'm not boasting, but I can still understand my daughter's character. She definitely shouldn't be like what you said, the kind of girl who would agree to a fake marriage for 30 million yuan. Are you mistaken?”Zhao Jiafang became agitated. She grabbed Mo Xunjie's sleeve and insisted that Mo Xunjie explain everything.
"Originally, I also thought that Luo Weiru agreed to this deal with me for the money. However, recently, Luo Weiru's father, Mr. Luo Tao, came to our Mo family and asked for a betrothal gift of 100 million yuan. My father felt that it was a little unfair that he and mother didn't attend the wedding. Wei Ru had already promised to give Luo Tao this 100 million yuan. However, you also know the truth of the matter. Once the matter between me and Wei Ru is exposed, my father will definitely not let this 100 million yuan go.”
"What is it? 100 million yuan?" Zhao Jiafang's breathing became exceptionally heavy. His turbid eyes widened in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what Mo Xunjie had just said.
"Yes, I am. 100 million yuan. To be honest, I don't feel at ease giving away such a huge sum. Therefore, I asked a few of my friends to investigate your husband's recent situation. After investigating, I found out that your husband has been gambling all these years, and all the gambling debts he owes are paid off by Luo Weiru alone. Just before Luo Weiru signed the marriage contract with me, Luo Tao owed a loan shark of 30 million. I guess this is the real reason why Luo Weiru married me for 30 million. As for this 100 million, I think it should be Luo Tao's gambling debt.”
Zhao Jiafang's eyes widened. I know Luo Tao likes to gamble, but he has never dared to gamble so much!”
"Maybe he has something to rely on." Mo Xunjie narrowed his eyes.”
Zhao Jiafang finally fell silent. Zhao Jiafang knew that her husband liked to gamble. In the past, when their family's financial situation was not good, Luo Tao still knew how to restrain himself. Later on, Wei Ru also started working and the treatment was good, so Luo Tao gambled more. He sold his house a few years ago to pay off Luo Tao's gambling debts. Zhao Jiafang had knelt in front of Luo Tao many times over the years and begged him to stop gambling, but all she got in return was a beating.
Later, when she was hospitalized, Luo Tao seemed to have changed into a different person. He took the initiative to come to the hospital to take care of her and no longer talked about gambling in front of her. This made Zhao Jiafang mistakenly think that her husband had finally learned his lesson after so many years of being influenced by him.
Who would have thought that she would receive such news after waiting for so long?
"What a sin! What sin did I commit in my previous life!”Zhao Jiafang wailed, and not a single tear could flow out of her empty eyes. Her tears had long dried up after so many years of suffering.
"Auntie, don't be sad. The reason why Luo Tao was able to threaten Luo Weiru so many times was because of you.”Mo Xunjie took out a tissue and handed it to Zhao Jiafang. He continued,""The money for your hospitalization was provided by Luo Weiru. I think you should know this very well. All these years, Luo Tao has been using your body as a threat. If Luo Weiru refuses to pay off his gambling debts, he will ask the hospital to stop taking your medicine. He is your husband and your guardian. He has the right to do so. Luo Weiru was worried about your safety and could only be threatened by Luo Tao repeatedly. Auntie, I don't know what happened to you back then, but can you bear to see Wei Ru live the same life as you for the rest of her life?”
Zhao Jiafang's body obviously trembled. She seemed to have thought of the miserable days she had been abused by Luo Tao all these years. Was she really going to watch her daughter fall into Luo Tao's clutches and be treated like a money tree by Luo Tao to survive?
No! Zhao Jiafang didn't want this! Luo Weiru was her only daughter, her life! She could not let her daughter live a life worse than a pig or a dog like her!
As Zhao Jiafang thought about it, her face was covered in tears.
Mo Xunjie knew that Zhao Jiafang's heart had wavered, but he did not say anything. He just waited quietly for Zhao Jiafang to make her own decision.
Zhao Jiafang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and choked,"In the past, when I was pregnant and married Luo Tao, the Luo family always looked down on me and thought that I was an indecent girl. I'll admit all of this. That's the truth. After that, I gave birth to Wei Ru. When the Luo family saw that Wei Ru was a daughter, they desperately forced me to give birth to a son for their family. However, after I gave birth, my body was very weak. How could I possibly get pregnant again? However, the Luo family did not agree. Later on, I finally had a second child, but because my body was weak, I could not keep it. During the operation, there was a medical accident, causing me to be unable to give birth again. Because of this, Luo Tao and my mother-in-law gave me a lot of face. I admit to everything. It's all my fault! But my Wei Ru, she didn't do anything wrong! Why does she have to suffer with me? Why does she have to be born without being able to enjoy her father's love…"
"You mean to say that Luo Weiru is Luo Tao's child?”Mo Xunjie's eyes widened. He and Yan Mo had both guessed that Luo Weiru was not Luo Tao's child, which was why she was treated like this. However, from what Zhao Jiafang had said, Luo Weiru seemed to be Luo Tao's child.
Zhao Jiafang's expression changed, but she immediately felt relieved."I think you've not only investigated Luo Tao, but you've also investigated me, right? That's right, I married Luo Tao when I was pregnant. Luo Tao is a well-known hooligan and jerk in our town. The reason why my parents are willing to marry me to him is that Luo Tao…raped me. Luo Tao didn't know about all of this. He just thought that my parents saw that I was pregnant and wanted him to cover up everything! Luo Tao had no idea that after he raped me back then, I was already pregnant with his child!”
Zhao Jiafang's every word was like blood, causing Mo Xunjie's expression to change.
Mo Xunjie did not expect Luo Weiru's mother to have suffered such a huge injury. For a moment, Mo Xunjie did not know how to treat Zhao Jiafang.
"I'm sorry for making a fool of myself. I don't have many days left to live. These things have been kept in my heart and I haven't told anyone. I originally thought that I would bring this secret to my coffin, but now I'm telling you. It seems that it's really fate. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Wei Ru. You're a good child.”Zhao Jiafang wiped her tears and forced a smile at Mo Xunjie." What do you want me to do? As long as I can do it, as long as I don't let him hurt Wei Ru again, I'm willing to do anything.”
Zhao Jiafang's tearful look shocked Mo Xunjie.
Although he was a man, he could understand the helplessness and helplessness that Zhao Jiafang felt when she had no choice but to marry Luo Tao. Presumably, the reason why Zhao Jiafang married Luo Tao was to give her daughter a complete family! Unfortunately, Luo Tao's actions not only did not give Luo Weiru a complete family, but also caused her to live in a nightmare from childhood until now.
Mo Xunjie took Zhao Jiafang's hand." Don't worry, Auntie." I won't let that Luo Tao continue to hurt Luo Weiru, I promise you.”
Mo Xunjie's heart sank when he came out of Zhao Jiafang's ward.
Luo Tao's name echoed in Mo Xunjie's mind thousands of times. As soon as he thought of this ugly and evil man who had used all sorts of methods and reasons to threaten Luo Weiru, Mo Xunjie's heart could not help but clench.
Before she met him, had Luo Weiru been forced by her father to pay her debts?
That Luo Tao was really detestable!
Mo Xunjie decided that no matter what, no matter how much manpower and resources he had to use, he would make Luo Tao receive the punishment he deserved! Otherwise, he wouldn't be called Mo Xunjie!
As soon as Mo Xunjie walked out of the hospital, he called Qin Muchu and Yan Mofu. He instructed them to investigate Luo Tao's past experiences thoroughly so that they could see if Luo Tao had any criminal records that they could use.
After the call, Mo Xunjie was about to walk out of the door when he suddenly saw a familiar figure on the road.
It was a woman in a white cotton dress with long hair. At this moment, she was half-squatting and talking to a little boy who was about three years old.
"Xun 'er, you're just trying to make me worry. The kindergarten teacher said that you had a fever. Do you know how worried I was?”The woman picked up her son and walked out of the hospital without looking back, leaving Mo Xunjie dumbfounded.
