Chapter 1025: Qiao Lian Is Pregnant (10)

Having said this, Yao Lili narrowed her eyes and stared at Mo Xicheng.

No one could have noticed the expression of hatred that flashed across her eyes.

A person like him… What rights did he have to deserve the love of a normal girl?

What he deserved was the child of a mistress!

His mother had made herself a mistress…

So she was determined to subject him to a life in which he would experience the sorrow of never being able to live with his head held high.

These insane thoughts ran rampant in her mind, as she took a deep breath and said, “I’m doing this for your own good. To get along well, a couple needs to be equal in status, don’t you think?”

A man like him deserved to live in the shadows forever.

Mo Xicheng clenched his fists tightly.

He was in his late twenties, almost thirty now.

All these years, he had never been in love.

All because he had feared he would subject a girl to the sort of gloomy life he lived.

But he had never expected that Yao Lili would demean him to such an extent.

Because he didn’t have a good background, he could only marry the child of another mistress?

At this point, his own life seemed like a joke.

He looked at Yao Lili without saying a word.

Yao Lili felt a tinge of guilt under the steady gaze of the man. She averted her gaze after a moment and said, “Alright, we will meet this evening at the hotpot restaurant in front of your filming location. And if you don’t turn up, I will keep bringing Li Xue to your set, so you decide!”

After saying this, she turned and walked away.

By now s.h.i.+ Nianyao, who had been watching all of this, was heaving in anger.

Was this his real mother?

She frowned and wanted to rebuke the woman. However for the sake of Mo Xicheng, she held herself back and swallowed those words.

But at this very moment, Mo Xicheng didn’t seem approachable.

It was as though he had deliberately placed distance between himself and the rest of the world. He felt extremely isolated.

Seeing him like this made her exceptionally sad, it was heartbreaking.

She wished more than anything to break him out of this melancholy. She looked around and finally found a bottle of water. She brought it to him and said with a wide grin, “Idol, drink up!”

He lowered his gaze, trying to hide his gloominess behind an indifferent expression. Then he looked at s.h.i.+ Nianyao.

She thrust the water towards him. “Drink up, idol. Let me ask you, are you worried about that Li Xue being a bit ugly? I think she’s ugly too! She is nowhere as cute, lively and innocent as me.”

As she said this, she lifted her palms to her face and shook her head from side to side. Her antics cheered him up immediately.

A tender look flashed across his eyes.

Then s.h.i.+ Nianyao continued, “I’m telling you, you have to take me with you tonight! Just you watch me. I don’t like her and I have my ways of kicking her out! Don’t you worry, male idol. From now on, I’ll get all the demons and the G.o.ds alike out of my way.”

Mo Xicheng was speechless.

Her liveliness and the way she was wracking her brains made the corners of his lips turn upwards suddenly, as he broke into laughter.

s.h.i.+ Nianyao came alive when she saw him laughing. Lightly patting her chest, she said, “You’re finally laughing! My efforts didn’t go to waste. Do you know, idol, that you looked very scary just now? You should smile more. Look at me, I laugh happily every day. A laugh can make you ten years younger. But idol, it’s enough if you laugh twice. If you laugh three times, you might be taken back to your mother’s womb, then what would I do?”

Mo Xicheng: …
