Chapter 1417


Chapter 1417: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (90)

The crisp and clear slap echoed around the ward.

Everyone was shocked into silence.

Clutching his face, Mo Zhi stared at Li Shu in disbelief.
Mo Hai didn’t even dare to say a word.

Only Yao Lili widened her eyes in horror at the situation unfolding before her.
Her eyes flashed with an expression of embarrassment, as though she had been insulted.

He was her son and Li Shu had given him a tight slap.

If she weren’t bound by logic, she would have charged at that woman and given her a few scratches on her face.

What right did she have to hit him?

She had seriously gone overboard.

Yao Lili clenched her fists tightly and couldn’t help crying out, “Madam, why did you hit Young Master?”

Those words caused everyone in the room to snap out of their daze.

Although the slap from Li Shu in itself hadn’t been painful, Mo Zhi had never felt so humiliated in his life.
Clutching his face and looking at Li Shu completely stunned, he wanted to lament and speak, but when he saw the expression on her face, he swallowed all of his words.

Li Shu stood there austerely.
There was a silent warning in her posture, no one dared to speak or oppose her—no one even dared to look her in the eyes.

The moment Yao Lili’s words fell, Li Shu turned to look at her and said, “I’m disciplining my son, what has that got to do with you?”

Her words sent everyone in the room into a stunned silence again.

Not the least Mo Hai, with his widened eyes.

Since Mo Hai had had this affair, Li Shu had treated him with indifference, she had been neither cold nor warm towards the man.

But even though Yao Lili had been living next to their family, under the same roof with her step-child, Li Shu had never made things difficult for the mother and son.

Because she understood that when a man strayed, it wasn’t entirely the third party’s fault.

If it hadn’t been for Mo Hai not being able to control himself, how would he have ended up sleeping with Yao Lili?

What was the point of making things difficult for another woman?

Yao Lili had never gotten married and never received any affection from Mo Hai.
She had never even experienced a normal married life, that was pitiful enough.

But right now, it was very clear at whom Li Shu was directing her words.

Yao Lili choked at once and said after a moment, “I- Madam, please don’t be angry, I won’t say another word.”

Li Shu threw her a glance upon hearing these words and ignored her completely afterwards.
Instead, she shifted her attention to Mo Zhi and said after a while, “I did not educate you enough in the past, but from now on, I will make every effort to correct your behavior.”

Yao Lili was inclined to speak again, but before she could do so, Mo Hai had taken a step forward and said, “Li Shu, you have misunderstood something.
Our Mo Zhi is a good boy, and he has never—”

Li Shu immediately let out a frosty laugh and interrupted, “Mo Hai, don’t think I’m stupid and don’t understand anything.
We both know the truth!”

She turned and looked at Mo Hai with an expression of disappointment.
“All these years, I failed to discipline him and you, as his father, is this how you minded him? It’s no wonder he just does as he pleases.
He even schemed against Shi Nianyao! Ignoring her family background, have you ever thought that her mother and I are best friends? If you had gotten your way, how would I ever be able to look at her in the eye again? And now, I don’t even know how to explain this.
Mo Zhi, I would have never thought that while time and again I asked Mo Xicheng to give in, you, on the other hand, were never satisfied.”
