Hearing Li Ruyu speak like this, a smile imdiately spread across Zhao Yiling’s face, "Mom, then I’ll go with you tomorrow."
"Go with ?" Li Ruyu frowned slightly, "As an unmarried young lady, it might be inappropriate for you to accompany to handle this matter, don’t you think?"
"What’s inappropriate about it?" Zhao Yiling’s eyes were filled with brightness, "Isn’t this the perfect opportunity to let the old Madam Mo see ?"
Having the old Madam Mo see what an outstanding person she was, she would definitely be satisfied with her as a daughter-in-law.
Perhaps she might even see the head of the Mo family tomorrow, that dignified and cool man.
Just the thought of sharing a bed with such a man in the future filled Zhao Yiling’s heart as if sothing had filled it up in an instant, making her forget all her troubles.
Li Ruyu weighed her options and realized there was so truth in what Zhao Yiling said.
Her daughter was so exceptional that the old Madam Mo would surely take to her at first sight, and in that way, the matter of calling off the engagent would go more smoothly.
"Alright," Li Ruyu nodded her head, "then prepare yourself well at ho, and tomorrow morning you can accompany on a visit to the Mo family."
Zhao Yiling’s face bead with a smile, "Okay, Mom, don’t worry, I promise I won’t let you down."

Jun Ao Group.
The little loli rode on her balance bike, wobbling along, making a mighty entrance into the top-floor office.
Along the way, many people saluted her.
"Daddy, you were looking for ?" The milky voice of the child rang out in the silent office.
At her words, Mo Qianjue looked up from a pile of papers, his usually dark eyes now showing deep affection, "Pengpeng is here."
"Daddy, hug." The little loli opened her arms towards Mo Qianjue.
Like a young bird waiting to be fed.
Mo Qianjue imdiately stood up from his executive chair and picked up the little loli, pinching her chubby cheeks, "Pengpeng has gotten chubbier! In a few years, Daddy won’t be able to carry you anymore."
Pengpeng?
The little loli’s eyes rolled around twice.
Whenever Daddy actively called her ’Pengpeng,’ it never ant anything good. This ti, Daddy must be up to no good again.
He was probably going to make her apologize to that an auntie again!
"Daddy, calling Pengpeng is useless!" The little loli slapped Mo Qianjue’s face with her hand, taking a firm stance, "I’m not going to apologize to that an auntie!"
Upon hearing the little loli’s words, a hint of guilt crossed Mo Qianjue’s face.
Then he spoke, "Pengpeng, listen to Daddy, from now on I won’t make you apologize to that auntie anymore, nor will we visit that auntie again. I misunderstood you before, and I apologize here. Can you forgive , Pengpeng?"
Hearing Mo Qianjue say this, the little loli’s eyes widened with excitent and disbelief, "Daddy, are you serious? You really won’t see that auntie again? But didn’t you say she was your lifesaver? Are you going to be ungrateful?"
The loli was sowhat confused; her daddy’s change of attitude was too sudden.
Hearing the little loli’s words, the guilt on Mo Qianjue’s face deepened.
Ungrateful?
Hadn’t he already committed such an ungrateful act a long ti ago?
He hoped it wasn’t too late to make ands.
"I got it wrong before, she isn’t my lifesaver," Mo Qianjue patted the little loli’s head, seemingly casually adding, "By the way, didn’t you say the other day that you t a very pretty sister?"
"Daddy! You’re so silly! How could you get sothing like this wrong!" The little loli knocked on Mo Qianjue’s head.
She knew it! How could such a an auntie be her daddy’s lifesaver!
It was good that the an auntie wasn’t Daddy’s lifesaver, otherwise, she didn’t know how she would face that auntie anymore.
Seeing the little loli completely ignore what he had said next, Mo Qianjue cleared his throat and continued, "Pengpeng, do you still want to see that beautiful sister tonight?"
Beautiful sister?
The little loli lifted her head, blinking her big eyes, staring at Mo Qianjue motionlessly, a little confused, "Daddy, what beautiful sister are you talking about?"
"The one who can play with Tarot cards," Mo Qianjue continued.
"Oh," realization dawned on the little loli, "You an Chu Jin, Daddy, Chu Jin is clearly a beautiful brother, when did he beco a beautiful sister? You can’t call Chu Jin ’sister,’ otherwise, Chu Jin will be unhappy."
Seeing the conversation finally got back on track, Mo Qianjue breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, yes, that’s the one. So Pengpeng, do you still want to see him tonight?"
The little loli pouted, looking sowhat displeased, "Not going anymore."
"Why?" Mo Qianjue’s expression changed, "Don’t you really like Chu Jin? Why don’t you want to see him tonight?"
Now he could only count on his daughter to help him get closer to her, but he didn’t expect his daughter to say such a thing.
Was there so problem with their relationship?
Mo Qianjue’s heart felt a bit panicked.
Could it be she’d found out that the little loli was her own daughter?
And then she severed ties with the little loli?
She didn’t seem like that kind of person, though.
Or had the little loli offended her with her words?
Was she angry?
But she didn’t seem like soone who was so petty, how could she be upset with a little child?
Or could it be that the little loli had lost interest in her, and now she didn’t like her anymore?
"Could it be you don’t like that Brother Jin anymore?" Mo Qianjue imdiately asked.
"Of course, I like Brother Jin!" Upon hearing this, the little loli imdiately stated her position.
How could she possibly not like Brother Jin.
There wasn’t a single person in the whole world who liked Brother Jin more than she did.
Upon hearing this, Mo Qianjue breathed a sigh of relief, "So, is it Brother Jin who doesn’t like you anymore?"
"That’s not it either, I am Brother Jin’s best buddy, how could she possibly not like , she is even taking to the amusent park on Saturday." Saying so, the little loli raised her proud little head.
Best buddies?
The corner of Mo Qianjue’s mouth twitched. If they had beco the best of buddies, then what had he beco?
Their ...
Dad?
The father of an eighteen-year-old girl!
Mo Qianjue was shocked by his own thought, hey! He didn’t have a daughter that old.
But at the mont, that wasn’t the most pressing issue.
Mo Qianjue continued to ask the doubts in his heart, "Then why didn’t you go see her tonight?"
Upon ntioning this, the little loli’s face fell, "Because I made a promise with Brother Jin that from now on, I can only visit her on Saturdays and Sundays, and I have to study hard and listen to my teachers and Papa during the weekdays."
She was a good Bao Bao who listened to Brother Jin.
Hearing this, Mo Qianjue seed to rember sothing as well, and his tense nerves relaxed. He patted the little loli’s head, "Pengpeng really is a good and obedient Bao Bao, but tonight, I’ll allow you to go see Brother Jin once, would you like to go?"
After all, she’d just been through such an ordeal, she must be feeling very upset now. When people are extrely distressed, they might have all sorts of dire thoughts.
With the little loli for company, he would worry less.
"Papa, are you really telling the truth?" Hearing this, the little loli’s eyes lit up at once, "Can I really go see Brother Jin tonight?"
Mo Qianjue nodded, "Of course, when has Papa ever lied to you?"
"Oh yeah!" The little loli excitedly jumped off of Mo Qianjue’s lap, "Great, I can go see Brother Jin now."
"Bye, Papa," the little loli huffed and puffed as she climbed onto the back of the bread, and without looking back, she waved her paws at Mo Qianjue.
"Shrimp crackers! Let’s go!" With a kick of her legs, Bread imdiately started to run excitedly.
Mo Qianjue watched her retreating figure, warmth surfacing in his eyes.
Suddenly, he found that the little loli’s earlier suggestion was actually quite good.
At least, Pengpeng genuinely liked her.
And indeed, a mother’s presence is indispensable in a child’s childhood.
He truly had overlooked this issue before.
**
At the crossroads.
Chu Jin was receiving the first custor of the day.
A plainly dressed, weathered middle-aged woman, her hair already graying, eyes dim and lacking in brightness, her face spreading with a waning aura.
Without the right person to guide her, this person, she probably wouldn’t make it through tonight.
However, around her she emitted a faint purple aura invisible to the naked eye.
Presumably, she had done many good deeds and was a person endowed with virtue.
How could a person enveloped in virtue lose faith in life and harbor thoughts of suicide?
