Adding this sentence is just to give them, as parents, face.
So as not to embarrass them.
The Xiao couple exchanged a glance, somewhat at a loss.
They came here to discuss marriage, but now...
That Xiao Ce is really something, we don't even know where he's gone. We've called him so many times since last night and he hasn't answered.
A few simple and clear words made the atmosphere in the living room a little awkward.
Madam Mo frowned slightly. She turned her head to look at Rong Shang and asked in a low voice, "Qiqi, what exactly is going on between you and Xiao Ce?"
Is everything being said online these past two days true?
Was Xiao Ce dating Ye Weiya?
Also, why are there rumors online that Xiao Ce dumped Ye Weiya for another woman?
If those are true, then this child is incredibly irresponsible.
Everyone in the room looked at Rong Shang, hoping to find the real answer from her.
But the woman in front of her was clearly indifferent, still fiddling with the ring on her hand, saying, "If you don't love someone anymore, it's normal to break up."
"But……"
Madam Mo seemed to want to say something, but when she got to the point, she glanced at the Xiao family couple opposite her and then remained silent.
What she really wanted to say was that Qiqi had attempted suicide by cutting her wrists on the night of Xiao Ce's birthday two months ago.
But after thinking about it, considering it concerned Mo Qiqi's reputation, she decided to say less.
Mrs. Xiao was somewhat bewildered, "Then this marriage—"
"I think we should ask Xiao Ce for clarification first," Mr. Xiao interrupted his wife, glancing at her.
As luck would have it, Mr. Xiao's phone rang just as they were talking.
The phones used by seniors are usually very loud, and sure enough, as soon as Mr. Xiao answered the phone, Xiao Ce's somewhat hoarse voice came through.
"Dad, is there something you need from me?"
Upon hearing Xiao Ce's voice, Old Master Xiao's anger flared up as if it hadn't been started. "You brat, where have you been all night?"
"I--"
"You went drinking again, didn't you?"
Judging from his hoarse voice, Master Xiao knew he must have been drunk again.
Without denying it, Xiao Ce simply changed the subject, "Dad, just tell me what's on your mind."
He wants to go back to sleep; his head is killing him.
"Hmph." Old Master Xiao snorted coldly, "Do you even know what your mother and I did today?"
"What's wrong?"
“We came here this morning specifically to discuss the marriage with Qiqi on your behalf, but you…”
Sigh, it must be that brat messed around outside that made Qiqi want to break up with him.
Facing Rong Chang and the Mo family, Master Xiao suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
As for Xiao Ce, after being beaten up by Mo Zhan at his villa last night and hurt by Rong Shang's words, he went to a bar and drank all night. He then slept in a private room until now.
Hearing his father say this, Xiao Ce didn't show much surprise.
Xiao Ce already knew from Mo Qiqi's resolute attitude last night that there was no future between them.
His tone was cold and indifferent. Xiao Ce gave a curt "hmm" and then said nothing more.
Not to mention Mr. Xiao answering the phone, even Mrs. Xiao, who was listening nearby, was very angry.
"Hmm, what do you mean now?" Madam Xiao snatched Mr. Xiao's phone and spoke to Xiao Ce, "Ce'er, marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated lightly? Tell me about you and Qi Qi now..."
"We've broken up." Xiao Ce's voice sounded unusually low on the phone. "From now on, don't worry about us anymore."
