Chapter 516 - SLY LUO REN
BUT Luo Ren didn't panic and just commented calmly, "It seemed like President Mo is used to hearing bad things about your daughter. But seeing your attitude, you probably just brush it off, right? After all, how could your daughter do any wrong?"
The sarcasm in Luo Ren's voice didn't escape Mo Guang Li's ears. His expression darkened and he abruptly stood up. "I think we're done here."
"If President Mo cared, even a tiny bit, for your stepdaughter, then I ask you to stay and hear me out."
After Luo Ren said that, Mo Guang Li stopped. He looked down at the young man who was sitting comfortably in his chair. He was looking at him with eyes as if saying, 'leave and you will definitely regret it'.
"What does this have to do with Yu Jiao?"
Luo Ren gestured for the other to sit down, "Please."
Mo Guang Li grunted before sitting back down on his seat.
"I take it that President Mo is familiar with the accident that happened in my family," Luo Ren continued.
Of course, Mo Guang Li was familiar with that. Almost eight years ago, Luo Wei Tian's wife and his two sons were in a car accident. The wife died and one of the two sons fell into a coma. He heard that that son woke up recently. But what did that have anything to do with his daughter or stepdaughter?
Luo Ren seemed to read what he was thinking and said, "My younger brother, Luo Yan, is now also attending Guizu Academy. He's in the same class as your stepdaughter and they became good friends."
Surprise flashed in Mo Guang Li's eyes when he heard that. He even felt unbelievable. After all, Yu Jiao was very shy and timid. Whenever he tried to talk to her, she would either stutter or manage to answer him properly. It's the reason why no matter how much he loved his new wife, he just couldn't bring himself to be fond of the girl.
He understood that the large cause of that was the environment she grew up in. But even so, it's still really hard to like a timid girl like her who couldn't even form sentences properly. So, how did that girl managed to befriend the second young master of the Luo family?
Luo Ren ignored the surprise on Mo Guang Li's expression. He remembered the things Luo Jin had told him when he asked him what exactly happened during lunch. The things his youngest brother said was very interesting. Especially that thing that Luo Yan did. But more than that, he knew that he could use that incident to his advantage during his meeting with Mo Guang Li today.
So, he continued, "I don't know if you have heard it, but yesterday, there's an incident that involved your daughter and my brother. I know that President Mo treasures your daughter very much. But I and the rest of my family also treasures Luo Yan. Probably even much more so that you do your daughter. But you really can't blame us, right? After all, we almost lost him once.
"So, just imagine my anger when I heard yesterday how your daughter pushed my brother. But I calmed myself and investigated the whole ordeal. After all, I wouldn't want to just dish out punishment without knowing the whole story. Apparently, my brother scolded your daughter in front of a large crowd. Of course, I was confused on why my sweet and innocent younger brother would do that.
"It turned out that it was because your daughter bullied Yu Jiao that morning. And then, as if nothing had happened, she went traipsing over the third-year building of the academy just so she could ingratiate herself with my youngest brother – Luo Jin. Apparently, she liked him. She wanted to use her connection to Yu Jiao to join them for lunch. This, of course, angered Luo Yan. So, he scolded her. And your daughter pushed him because of that.
"You should know that my brother's physique is still weak. A simple push could hurt him a lot. I'm sure your daughter knew that. And yet, she still did what she did. Instead of apologizing, she put all the blame on my brother. I wanted to give your daughter the benefit of the doubt. But when I had her investigated, do you know what I discovered? That something like that was common to her.
"Bullying and hurting others, she has been doing it since she was a child. But what's more surprising to me was that, you, President Mo, as her father, encouraged her to continue doing such things. I'm wondering whether you really care for your daughter. After all, if you do, then you wouldn't have let her grew up into such a mean little witch--"
"Enough!" Mo Guang Li shouted, his face was all red. One wouldn't know if he was embarrassed or angry. Maybe even both. "What are you trying to say?"
"I just want President Mo to discipline his daughter. If you can't do that, then, please, just don't let her near my brothers or even Yu Jiao. It's such a simple thing, right? You don't even need to do that much. But if that's still too much for President Mo, then, I'll just do it myself. I'll transfer your daughter out of Guizu Academy. And then I'll let your new wife discover that your daughter had been harassing and bullying her daughter. What do you think she will do? Will she choose you or will she choose her own daughter? You know, the one she brought up by herself for years."
With what he said, he believed that it wouldn't cause a rift between Mo Guang Li and Yu Jiao's mother. Instead, it would even make the other guilty. After all, Luo Ren was sure that Mo Guang Li was aware of the hardships his new wife had experience as a single mother. If he really loved her, then he would definitely compensate her instead of alienating her just for his daughter.
But if he did otherwise, then this man simply didn't deserve Yu Jiao's mother.
He leaned back on his chair comfortably and smiled at Mo Guang Li. The other's face was now crimson with anger. He could even see a few veins pumping on his forehead. But Luo Ren didn't care and just continued to smile.
"I believe President Mo knows what to do."
