Chapter 178: Revenge Plot
When they reached home, Jiang Yao ran into Mo Zheng who was waiting at the front door in his wheelchair. She hurriedly pushed him into the living room. “How long have you been staying there? Your body is so cold! Auntie Qiu, make a bowl of ginger soup please!”
Mo Zheng saw his family file into the door. When he didn’t see Mo Li, he frowned.
“Li Li is still staying with your grandparents. But I’m sure she’ll move back soon.” Naturally Jiang Yao knew what was on her son’s mind. They had seriously misunderstood Mo Li. Mo Li had tried to explain herself but they refused to believe her…
Mo Zheng was especially harsh on Mo Li. He even threw food at her. And then when he needed to move back home, he forced Mo Li to move out.
Honestly, Jiang Yao didn’t wish for her family to get to this stage, it was not good for family harmony. However, there was nothing they could do if Mo Li refused to come back home.
Mo Zheng sighed helplessly. “After two more days, I’ll go back to the old home and try to persuade Mo Li to come home…”
When she heard that, Qiao Qing tensed. When Mo Li was not home, she was treated as the real Young Miss of the Mo Family. At the dining table, she took the seat normally reserved for Mo Li. Mo Yi and Jiang Yao would ask her about school and Mo Zheng spent a lot of time to play with her… But if Mo Li moved back home, that would all dissolve into nothingness. She mustn’t allow that to happen!
“If only Ol’ Three goes to apologize, I doubt Mo Li will agree to come back home!” Mo Yun suddenly turned to Qiao Qing. Until now, Qiao Qing had only apologized to Jiang Yao and Mo Yi, she had not apologized to Mo Li.
Furthermore, Mo Yun had a feeling Qiao Qing had not admitted to everything she had done. For one, Mo Yun didn’t think the news about the car accident would spread so fast at all without someone manipulating it. To investigate, Mo Yun went on Mo Li’s school forum and looked into the archives. He noticed many strange activities from a singular account. The account had been subtly trying to pin the blame on Mo Li for the car accident.
The owner of the account supplied her arguments with everyday pictures of Mo Li. The Mo family home was tight with security. Normal paparazzi couldn’t come in, those pictures could only have come from people on the inside. Auntie Qiu didn’t even know how to use a camera phone, the drivers normally wouldn’t enter the house. Mo Yun had checked the other staff members in private, they were all clean.
Therefore, there was only one candidate left.
“Big brother, what more do you want from Qing Qing? She has already explained that she has nothing to do with this!” Mo Zheng saw how wronged Qiao Qing look and he jumped to her rescue. “Qing Qing already said she mistook Lin Fei for Mo Li because the girl was wearing Mo Li’s clothes. Qing Qing only said those things because she was worried about me. Do you really think she would purposely harm Li Li?”
Mo Zheng was confused. His family should know how innocent and kind Qiao Qing was. In fact, Mo Yun had a good relationship with Qiao Qing before this. So why did everyone turn against Qiao Qing after the truth was revealed?
“Brother Zheng, it’s alright.” Qiao Qing said with choking tears. “I will apologize to Mo Li and explain to her what happened. It’s best to have this misunderstanding behind us. As a family, we should stay together.”
Mo Zheng shot a look at Mo Yun as if saying, ‘See how understanding Qing Qing is!’
Sensing the tension between her two sons, Jiang Yao immediately came to mediate. “Alright, you two. When the time comes, we’ll all go to the old home. Ol’ Three and Qing Qing, you’ll need to apologize to Mo Li then. When Mo Li moves back home, we’ll be a happy family again.”
Mo Zheng nodded and signaled for Qiao Qing to push him back upstairs. Inside the elevator, Mo Zheng sighed helplessly, “Qing Qing, I’m sorry but you know how much my mother and big brother pamper Li Li…”
Qiao Qing didn’t reply. She merely shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
However, internally she swore to herself that she would pay back the humiliation Mo Li had made her suffer 1000 times in the future!
