ut his true self.
He lowered his head and, after a while, said, “It was ok.
I’m just a little unhappy.”

Surprised, Si Jingyu asked, “What’s the matter?”

Mo Xicheng spoke honestly, “When I joined the company, I plotted against Mo Zhi.
Now Mo Zhi was affected negatively and I don’t feel any happier.
I don’t know how to put it, it’s like- it’s like-”

Hearing this, Si Jingyu had a sudden realization and said with a smile, “You have never thought of challenging him or fighting him for anything, but now, for Nianyao’s sake, you find yourself having to make the effort, is that right?”

Mo Xicheng shook his head immediately and clarified, “It’s not for Nianyao, it’s also for myself.”

Si Jingyu sighed in relief and replied, “The fact that you can say this shows that you are discerning.
If you had really said that it was all for Nianyao, I’d be worried that in the time to come, you may end up blaming and taking it out on Nianyao because of everyone’s rejection and your friends’ abandonment.
But you are a good and decent child.”

Si Jingyu spoke in a cool and calm manner, as always.
She was a soft spoken woman who spoke slowly and gently, giving people a sense that she was a kind and amiable person.

Her behavior, on the other hand, had the ability to draw admiration from people.
When Mo Xicheng looked into her eyes, he felt there was something very maternal about her.

He looked at her and nodded immediately, reassuring her.
“Aunty, don’t worry.
I will take good care of Nianyao for the rest of my life.”

Si Jingyu smiled at once and said, “Good.”

Before she could continue, Shi Jinyan gave a loud snort, signaling that they shouldn’t continue this topic and should talk about something else.

Mo Xicheng was quite sure that Si Jingyu liked him.
He could tell that from the expression in her eyes when she talked to him.

Whereas Shi Jinyan… Well, he probably liked him too.

However…

They sat and talked till 9 p.m.
Mo Xicheng looked at the time and got onto his feet.
“Uncle, Aunty, it’s a little late now.
I should take my leave.”
