Chapter 588 - TOTALLY DESERVED
LUO REN took out his phone, the gentle and approachable expression he had when inside Yu Jiao's hospital room was already replaced by his usual coldness. He was on the phone with his assistant. Telling him to look for an apartment with a good environment near Guizu Academy. It would also be better if the price was reasonable. And that he should do it at the fastest speed.
The assistant on the other end of the phone pinched the bridge of his nose. He almost told his boss that looking for a good apartment in this city with those criteria that he gave was almost as hard as looking for a cheap commercial building in a good location. But he didn't say any of that. After all, the other was still his boss and the one responsible for his income.
Although this young boss was just a newcomer in the real estate industry, he's very capable. So, he had no problems following him. Besides, this young boss was never unreasonable. That was until a few days ago, when he suddenly asked him to investigate someone.
The assistant first thought that the person was a competitor for the company. But then he later realized that what the young boss asked him was not related at all to the company and was something personal. And now, the other was suddenly asking him to look for an apartment. What else could he do but say 'yes, he will do it immediately'?
"And also send two bodyguards to this address," Luo Ren added, saying the address of the hospital. "Tell them to guard Ji Xiuying and her daughter, Yu Jiao. You still have a picture of them, right?"
The assistant suddenly didn't know what to say. So, this was still related to Mo Guang Lin? First, his young boss just asked for information about the Mo family. Then now, he was telling him to send bodyguards to Mo Guang Lin's wife and stepdaughter. His brain was suddenly filled with some dog-blood abuse drama.
Could it be that his boss was fascinated with this Ji Xiuying and was planning to snatch her from Mo Guang Lin? Although the woman was older, she still looked quite beautiful. Was his boss into older women? Should he inform the big boss about this?
He quickly rejected that idea and shook his head. Anyway, he's just an assistant. All he had to do was follow what his employer wanted. He shouldn't get involved with his boss personal affair.
"Tell them that they shouldn't be noticed," Luo Ren added. "Have you heard?"
"Yes, sir," the assistant quickly answered. "I will get to it immediately."
"Contact me immediately once you found a good place."
After Luo Ren said what he needed to say, he ended the call and hung up. He put back his phone in his pocket and happened to see his younger brother looking at him with interest.
"Brother really cares about Yu Jiao," Luo Yan said with a teasing tone. "You must like her very much."
Luo Ren didn't look flustered hearing that. Instead, he only ruffled the other's soft hair. "I do. Don't you already know that?"
Luo Yan raised one of his brows seeing this honesty. He didn't expect the other to admit it so refreshingly. He suddenly missed Luo Jin for some reason. If he said that to his younger brother, Luo Jin would definitely blush up to the root of his ears.
"Brother is no fun to tease," he said with bulging cheeks.
Luo Ren only chuckled.
The two walked out of the hospital and went to the area where Luo Ren's car was parked. When Yu Jiao's mother returned from buying lunch, the two of them said goodbye to Yu Jiao. Although Luo Ren wanted to stay at least until evening, he couldn't. Because he knew how weird that would make him look.
He didn't want to appear suspicious in front of Yu Jiao's mother. Especially after seeing how much of an influence she had on Yu Jiao. He didn't want to be deemed unworthy of her when he hadn't even confessed yet. So, he could only let go and asked his assistant to send bodyguards.
Although that's just a temporary solution in case those people from the Mo family did something. The best way was to still go ahead with their plan and make sure that Mo girl wouldn't be able to extend her claws to the Yu Jiao and her mother.
Arriving at the spot where his car was, Luo Ren first opened the passenger seat for Luo Yan before walking around and getting on the driver's seat.
"Brother, do you think Mr. Mo will go through the divorce?" Luo Yan thought of asking.
"He will," Luo Ren answered without hesitation.
The fact the Yu Jiao's mother was the one who asked for divorce meant that Mo Guang Lin still ended up siding with that daughter of his. That was enough to prove that that old man was already hopeless.
He sneered. Whatever might happen next, that old man totally deserved it.
-----
That 'old man' right now was inside the hospital room of his daughter. He was in a daze. He still couldn't get over the fact that Ji Xiuying asked him for a divorce. All the things she said hammered down on his heart.
He looked at his daughter who was now asleep. Was it really so wrong to take his daughter's side and believed in everything she said?
Ji Xiuying called Mo Jian 'evil' and 'wicked'. That she just wanted to get his 'vile' daughter away from hers. He couldn't describe the emotion he had felt when he heard those words. There was anger, definitely. But more than that, he was just sad. It's like he was the only one who could see the goodness in Mo Jian.
Maybe it's really better for him and Ji Xiuying to just divorce. This situation proved one thing. At the end of the day, both of them would choose their own child and not each other. Just as she said, their love was simply not enough.
Mo Guang Lin took a deep breath before taking his phone from his pocket and calling the number of his lawyer. "Prepare a divorce agreement."
On the bed, the 'sleeping' Mo Jian smiled imperceptibly when she heard that.
