Li Shu did not pay attention to Mo Zhi’s reaction, but at this point, she was pletely stunned.
She stared quietly at the two people in the ward and felt as though the world around her had collapsed.
She was in a dream, where everything around her was surreal.
She gulped, suddenly feeling a surge of anger, restlessness and fear.
No, perhaps not fear. She felt like she was a joke.
There had been a birthmark on Mo Zhi’s buttock, this was indeed something that not many would have known.
Since they were a wealthy family, they were rather superstitious.
Hence when a child was born, it was mon practice to get a fortune teller to e to the house and take a look at the child.
At the time, the fortune teller had assessed that the birthmark was a bad thing. Specifically, that it would cause the loss of wealth and also suppress his fortune. Hence they did not make the existence of this birthmark public, and when he had grown a little older, they had even found someone to remove it.
Mo Zhi knew about thi, but besides himself and the people involved at the time, almost no one else had knowledge of it.
And now Yao Lili had clearly mentioned it.
Hence even if Li Shu had wanted to believe this to be a lie, it was unconvincing.
She stared at Mo Zhi.
Now that Mo Zhi and Yao Lili were next to each other, she realized for the first time that Mo Zhi bore a slight resemblance to that woman.
There was an unmistakable resemblance, in fact. Their side profiles looked like they were made from the same mould.
In the past, when she hadn’t known this, she had never made the association.
Li Shu retreated a step.
She gulped and widened her eyes by what was going on in the ward.
But if Mo Zhi knew he was Yao Lili’s son, then what about her own son?
As soon as this question occurred to her, she immediately thought of Mo Xicheng.
Mo Xicheng.
Her eyes reddened at once.
Scenes of Mo Xicheng being beaten by Yao Lili suddenly flashed through her mind.
She had thought Yao Lili and Mo Hai’s one-night stand had resulted in Mo Xicheng. Although she had never felt like making things difficult for the other woman, she couldn’t having something against Yao Lili, the mistress.
Of course, there had always also been that bit of loathing towards Mo Xicheng.
But every time she saw the little Mo Xicheng, her heart would inexplicably soften.
But…
Still, on countless occasions she had steeled her heart when she saw Yao Lili beating Mo Xicheng. She hadn’t intervened… unless it went too far. She would occasionally put a stop to things.
Just like that time…
She had seen that he had a fever and was so ill that he was dizzy.
However, Yao Lili wasn’t home and didn’t care, neither did Mo Hai.
She had only asked the housekeeper to send the boy to the hospital.
And after that?
How many times, for the sake of Mo Zhi, Mo Xicheng had had to tolerate and curb his abilities?
And how many times had Mo Zhi taunted Mo Xicheng for being a bastard, for being the son of a mistress?
Al ot of the time, she had chosen to turn a blind eye.
At those times she had turned a blind eye, and even when she had occasionally intervened and protected Mo Xicheng, she would end up berating herself for being too kind-hearted.
He was the son of the mistress, why did she get involved in his business?
But as these thoughts came to her, she suddenly felt like crying. Feelings of great anger surged through her.
Yao Lili… Yao Lili!
