You know, Dad has always taken very good care of himself; you can hardly see any gray hair...
Unlike now, when you look at it, you get a sense of vicissitude from the sight of white hair!
Mo Xiaoqing, who was about to reveal the truth, immediately stopped talking. She swallowed her words and thought of something else to smooth things over.
“If I hadn’t called my brother over for dinner, this wouldn’t have happened. So, in the end, isn’t this also related to me?”
Although the reason sounded particularly far-fetched and weak, Mo Qing didn't immediately notice anything amiss in her words.
In the past, Mo Qing would have been sensitive enough to notice something amiss in Mo Xiaoqing's subtle expression, but now he simply didn't have the energy...
After all, he was his own son, bound by blood. Moreover, he had been gone for so long, and the search and rescue team had never given up, but they hadn't found the body at all; it seemed to have vanished without a trace...
This gradually extinguished the last spark of hope that lingered in their hearts.
Mo Shi closed her eyes in annoyance and reached out to press her temples, which were throbbing with a headache.
"Fine, let her in. She's been standing outside all this time. People who don't know better will say that the Mo family is too heartless, all for a little girl!"
Mo Qing agreed, "That's true. If this drags on, who knows when it will end? It's better to make things clear once and for all and give her a break!"
"Miss Ji, if I understand correctly, what you meant last time was that you were planning to have a ghost marriage with my son, right?"
"…right!"
"Excuse me for being blunt, but I will absolutely not let the person who killed my son into my home. Even if we get divorced, you absolutely do not meet my requirements for a future daughter-in-law!"
Ji Yao swayed slightly. Usually calm and strong, she was suddenly unable to bear these words after such a big change in recent times.
"aunt…"
She bit her lower lip hard, refusing to associate with those parasitic vines that cling to men, even under these circumstances!
Even if you feel utterly hopeless and unable to bear it, you should never put on that fragile, innocent act.
Mo Shi hardened her heart and gave her a cold glance. "Miss Ji, please call me Madam Mo. Our two families have no dealings. You don't need to call me Auntie. That's too intimate and could easily cause misunderstandings!"
She has never been a heartless person, and it would be even more difficult for her to say such vicious things.
If it weren't for the profound impact of Yan Yu's incident, she would never have imagined that she would one day say something so unexpected...
Even at times like this, Ji Yao remained stubborn and proud. Though she had tears in her eyes, she would never give off the impression of a fragile, innocent woman who would easily be pushed aside.
"...Mrs. Mo, I know you hate me now and don't want to see me, but I only want to marry Yan Yan, no matter what, even if it's a ghost marriage, I just want to be with him!"
Mo Shi fell silent for a moment. Although she was moved by her feelings, she couldn't help but think of her son who had lost his life because of her.
She immediately hardened her heart again.
"But what I've found out during this period of investigation shows that my son broke up with you several years ago, and even cut ties completely. It was you who kept bothering him afterward!"
"I cannot agree to this marriage!"
In fact, if she hadn't killed Yan Yan...
Based on her investigation, including her background, family history, character, and education...
She and Yan Yan were indeed a good match, and she was the daughter-in-law who best suited her taste.
But…
There are no "what ifs" in this world; what has already happened can never be undone or undone.
Mo Shi knew she was displacing her anger, and she also knew that, based on her investigation and what she had learned recently, this matter was indeed directed at her own daughter…
However, she couldn't bring herself to get angry at Momo, because this time she had not only lost her son, but also almost lost her daughter.
Just thinking about the word "almost" made her unable to get angry at Momo anymore.
"In life, you and my son were entangled in a bitter relationship, ultimately ending in a tragic separation and a bad end. I really don't want to arrange this ghost marriage, which would only deepen your ill-fated entanglement!"
