As those words fell, everyone’s face showed astonishnt.
Li Shaobai blurted out, "Brother Yu, you’ve got to think this through..."
How Yu Siqiao had always detested Mo Shu was evident to all. Now, with such a golden opportunity, he was suddenly saying he wouldn’t call off the engagent?
Had he lost his mind?
Yu Jing also found it hard to believe and, looking at Yu Siqiao, whispered, "Have you been around Mo Shu so long that you’ve caught her stupidity too?"
Such a great opportunity missed would never co again.
The most shocked was Mo Shu.
She looked at Yu Siqiao before her and felt increasingly strange, asking Sao Zha, How can he not follow the original plot? How am I supposed to play this now?
Sao Zha, who was embracing a freshly brewed milk tea, heard Mo Shu’s words and scoffed, "It’s all because of you. Always said he likes to be contrary to you. You showed an indifferent attitude about him calling off the engagent—like he would really call it off!"
Mo Shu: ...
To be contrary, he gave up such a great opportunity?
Yu Siqiao didn’t seem like a person who would be so irrational!
But apart from that explanation, no other reason could be found.
Seeing her daydreaming even at such a mont, Yu Siqiao grew even more annoyed and scoffed, "Our Yu Family heirloom was taken out to be sold, and to just call off the engagent like that would be letting you off too easily."
Li Shaobai suddenly realized.
So that was it!
He thought so; how could he bear not to call off the engagent? It turned out he wanted to escalate the situation even more!
Indeed!
That fits Yu Siqiao’s style!
Mo Shu took a deep breath and said, "I told you, it wasn’t ." She looked toward the display, "Whoever brought that item, why don’t we check it out?"
Li Shaobai quickly said, "You make it sound so simple. Since you dare say so, you must be well-prepared. What can checking it find? You said you could prove it, how do you plan to prove it, and how long will it take?"
At that mont, pressed by Li Shaobai, Mo Shu’s brows furrowed.
Mo Shu knew, it must be Uncle Dong!
All she had been thinking about was buying ti, but now she suddenly realized: Uncle Dong had always been thriving in the Mo Family. If he was capable of deceiving everyone while bleeding the Mo Family dry, such a matter would also offer hardly any loopholes to catch.
But if she couldn’t prove herself, the consequences would be dire: the Mo Family’s reputation tarnished, Mo Shu becoming the laughing stock of the world, and poor Elder Mo at his old age having to face everyone’s judgnt and finger-pointing ...
Mo Shu didn’t want that.
At this point, she could only try.
Even Uncle Dong, however capable, was bound to have left so traces.
Just as she was about to answer Li Shaobai, she suddenly heard Sao Zha’s voice, "Want to prove it?"
Mo Shu: Of course!!
"Tell him, tomorrow."
Mo Shu’s eyes brightened: You have a way?
Sao Zha: "Hmph."
Overjoyed, Mo Shu imdiately said, "Tomorrow afternoon!"
Yu Siqiao saw her face shift from worry to contemplation, and then as if she had made so determination, yet in the end, she showed a smile as radiant as flowers, as if all the previous shadows had been cleared.
In just a few seconds, Yu Siqiao’s emotions seed to have rollercoastered with her expressions.
He watched her coldly, "I really want to see how you’ll prove it."
