Aunt Wu lowered her head, not daring to look at Li Mengqin's shadow. Nono's apologetic look was really uncomfortable.
However, Li Mengqin did not want to let Auntie Wu off so easily. She said coldly to Auntie Wu,"Your bonus for this month will be deducted. If I find out that you're so careless at work next time, you'd better be prepared to pack up and leave!”
Li Mengqin's cold words pierced Aunt Wu's eyes so hard that tears welled up in her eyes. She also had a daughter who was in high school. She was about to take the college entrance examination this year. If she lost this job, her daughter would also be in danger of dropping out of school.
"Mom, it's not Auntie Wu's fault! I was too stupid! I didn't study hard. Auntie Wu was just teaching me seriously. Mom, if you want to blame someone, blame me. Please spare Auntie Wu.”Luo Weiru couldn't bear to see Aunt Wu's pitiful appearance and had no choice but to plead with Li Mengqin.
Li Mengqin pointed at Luo Weiru's nose and cursed,""You still have the face to say that! I really don't know how your parents raised you! Such a young lady doesn't even know how to cook and wash clothes. How can you have the nerve to marry into someone else's family and be their daughter-in-law? What kind of mother raised what kind of daughter! You really have no manners at all!"
Li Mengqin's contemptuous gaze was like a needle that stabbed into Luo Weiru's heart.
Luo Weiru's family background had not been good since she was young. Her mother, Zhao Jiafang, had received countless looks of disdain from the Luo family because she had married her father, Luo Tao, before getting pregnant. Mother Luo had not given her a good look since the day she married into the Luo family. More importantly, Luo Weiru's mother's family background was also very poor. Back then, in order to quickly marry off the pregnant Zhao Jiafang, she did not dare to make any requests from the Luo family. As a result, the Luo family did not have any respect for this daughter-in-law who was picked up for free. When Zhao Jiafang was in the Luo family, she did all the dirty and tiring work. Luo Tao and his son sat on the sofa and watched Zhao Jiafang work. If Zhao Jiafang was even a little slow, she would scold her angrily or punch and kick her. Luo Weiru grew up in such an environment. She had never experienced what fatherly love was. In her heart, her mother had given her everything. Her mother's love for her was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.
Ever since the day Luo Weiru grew up, she had sworn in her heart that no one could easily insult her mother. Li Mengqin's words today could be considered to have touched Luo Weiru's reverse scale.
Luo Weiru's eyes turned red in an instant, and she said fiercely,""Don't you dare insult my mother! It's not up to you to judge whether my mother is good or bad.”
Li Mengqin did not expect Luo Weiru to suddenly become so ruthless. Her eyes were red and filled with anger, causing Li Mengqin to feel fear.
"You! You're rebelling! Is it reasonable for you to not know how to do anything? Are you such a daughter-in-law? I'm so angry!" Li Mengqin picked up a glass cup from the kitchen and threw it at Luo Weiru.
Luo Weiru didn't dodge or dodge. The glass smashed into Luo Weiru's forehead. A bright red stream flowed down Luo Weiru's forehead, and the glass fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
All these changes stunned Aunt Wu and Li Mengqin.
Luo Weiru didn't bother to wipe the blood from her eyes. She glared at Li Mengqin stubbornly and said coldly,""Apologize to my mother! Now!"
Li Mengqin had never seen such a situation before. Luo Weiru was completely different from the gentle and bullying she thought she was. Now, Luo Weiru was like a ferocious and hungry wolf, as if she would pounce on her and tear her apart at any moment.
Li Mengqin's face instantly turned pale! This Luo Weiru was definitely a disaster! He couldn't let her stay. Look at what Luo Weiru had done as soon as she married into the family.
First, she instigated Xun Er to take her out for dinner and not go home at night. Then, she openly contradicted her and even brought Xun Er along to disobey her orders. Luo Weiru had never done anything that she had asked her to do. Now, it was even better. He actually dared to ask her, an elder, to apologize to her!
Didn't she just say that her mother didn't educate her well? Could it be that she was wrong?
Li Mengqin's expression was still filled with indignation.
"Luo Weiru, remember this! This is our Mo Clan, not your Luo Clan! It's not your turn to behave atrociously! Take a good look at your own identity!”Li Mengqin forced herself to remain calm as she finished speaking. She ran out in a panic, her footsteps even more uneasy than usual.
"Young Madam, how are you? Are you okay?”Aunt Wu looked at Luo Weiru's wound with concern and said,"The wound is a little deep. If it's not treated in time, will it leave a scar?”
Aunt Wu's worry made Luo Weiru shudder. She was a celebrity, and her face was everything to her. Even if something happened to her, she could not let anything happen to her face.
Aunt Wu saw Luo Weiru's nervousness and quickly called the maid, Xiao Mai, to the storage room on the second floor to get the first aid kit.
"Young Madam, your temper is too stubborn. Madam was just saying that. As long as you don't hold her back, it'll be fine.”Aunt Wu said as she quickly dipped a cotton ball in alcohol and began to clean Luo Weiru's wound.
The alcohol made Luo Weiru want to cry.
"Young Madam, if it hurts, just say it.”Aunt Wu saw that Luo Weiru's brows were almost furrowed into a ball, and her heart ached.
"I'm fine." Luo Weiru smiled faintly.
"Young Madam, we only have some anti-inflammatory and painkillers at home. I think the wound is quite deep. Why don't you go to the hospital to have a look?”Aunt Wu said with heartache. The wound caused by the glass was on her forehead and hairline. It was not particularly obvious, but if it was not treated properly, it would definitely leave a wound.
"Yes, I am. I know. Thank you, Auntie Wu." Luo Weiru said lightly.
Aunt Wu's heart ached." Young Madam, you might say that I'm ungrateful. But I still have to say that you just married into the Mo family and don't know what's going on here. Now that you've offended Madam, your future won't be good. Did you see Miss Yu Yanran move in?”
Aunt Wu observed Luo Weiru's expression and found that she was still calm. She hesitated for a moment and said,"That Miss Yu Yanran is actually the fiancée that Madam has chosen for Young Master, but three years ago, Young Master rejected Madam's intentions for another girl called Bai Ruoxue. But because of this, the relationship between Madam and Young Master worsened. For the past three years, Madam had been trying to get Young Master to marry Miss Yu Yanran, but Young Master had never agreed. Later on, Madam schemed for Young Master to make a three-year promise for her. If Young Master could find a fiancée who was not inferior to Miss Yu Yanran within three years, then she would be willing to let go and not let Young Master marry Yu Yanran anymore…Madam, I'm saying so much just to tell you that your marriage is not reliable. You should be careful.”
Luo Weiru listened silently. It was impossible for her not to have any thoughts in her heart. At least now, she knew why Mo Xunjie chose her to be his wife. It was probably because the three-year agreement was up and Mo Xunjie could not find a girl who met Li Mengqin's standards. He could only make do with marrying her first and ask for permission later.
However, Luo Weiru didn't understand why Mo Xunjie wouldn't let her perform well in front of Li Mengqin. Wouldn't it be better if she could win Li Mengqin's favor?
Luo Weiru thought for a moment and understood. If she made Li Mengqin hate her, she might be chased out of the Mo family by Li Mengqin in three years. Mo Xunjie was doing this to prevent her from taking over the contract and not leaving.
Luo Weiru's heart was filled with bitterness.
"I'm back." Mo Xunjie's voice came from the door.
"Young Madam, that's all I can tell you. "Young Master, he…" Auntie Wu looked at the slender figure at the door and turned to Luo Weiru."Young Master is actually a very good man. Young Madam, you have to grasp it.”
After Aunt Wu finished speaking, she took the first aid kit and walked away. It seemed that she had returned to the kitchen to prepare lunch or snacks.
Luo Weiru was the only one left in the large living room. The blood on her forehead had been barely stopped, and the red patch looked very shocking.
Luo Weiru thought about what Aunt Wu had just said, and a hint of bitterness appeared in her eyes.
Auntie Wu, oh Auntie Wu, why are you telling me all this? Perhaps if you didn't tell me all this, I could just pretend that nothing had happened and ignore the temptation in my heart to continue the contract with Mo Xunjie.
When did she fall in love with Mo Xunjie?
Was it during the press conference when he stepped out to help her out? Or when she sprained her ankle and his only son carried her up the mountain? Or was it when he did not hesitate to cut his own arm to save her and did not dare to tell Li Mengqin? Or was it when he was so arrogant but was willing to protect her?
When did Mo Xunjie's tall figure start to slowly enter her heart?
However, Aunt Wu had told her at this time that Mo Xunjie was only marrying her to avoid a family marriage.
All his fantasies were instantly wiped out.
The last bit of fantasy disappeared along with it.
Why did her heart hurt?
Didn't she already know that their marriage was just a contract? It was just a show to make use of each other. There didn't seem to be any other feelings between them other than using each other. He had once said that he…would never fall in love with her.
Her heart suddenly felt like it was being grabbed tightly by an unfamiliar hand.
So painful, so painful, is this the feeling of loving someone?
Luo Weiru asked herself, but she could not find the answer.
She knew that it was impossible, but why did she still unconsciously fall into his eyes? His every move, his smile, and his casual actions could make her intoxicated.
Look, he was looking at her with that gaze again.
Her heart melted into a puddle of soft spring water.
Mo Xunjie, how should I tell you?
I think…I've really fallen in love with you.
