Chapter 1295: 317: It’s Ni Yang!_2
Xiu Jiao smiled, “This is simple. I have a good friend whose younger sister seems to be pretty close to the head of the Ice Skin Jade Complex North China’s main store. If you’re interested, I can ask around for you. Having connections is always better than not.”
“Really?” Xiu Yingying asked.
Xiu Jiao nodded.
“Then I’ll trouble you, Aunt.”
After leaving Xiu Yingying, Xiu Jiao went straight back to the Mo Family.
Mo Rongping was at home with Mo Zhiyuan. Normally considered a stern person, his face lit up like a flower when holding Mo Zhiyuan.
Xiu Jiao threw her handbag onto the sofa, her expression full of displeasure.
“What’s the matter? Who upset you now?” Mo Rongping asked with curiosity.
“Other than your brother, who else in this household would dare to show me an attitude?”
Mo Rongping paused. “Zhiyuan?”
Mo Rongping had three younger brothers, but the first person to come to mind was Mo Qishen—not because he was special, but because he was the only one of his brothers living in Beijing.
“Yes, it’s him. Just thinking about it makes me boil!” Xiu Jiao started airing her grievances. “No matter what, I am his sister-in-law, the wife of the eldest son of the Mo Family…”
Xiu Jiao danced around the details, embellishing the story while portraying Mo Qishen and Ni Yang as ungrateful people.
Mo Rongping frowned slightly. “As far as I know, Zhiyuan isn’t someone who lacks judgment. Did you do something even more over-the-line?”
As the eldest son of the Mo Family, Mo Rongping was not someone who disregarded right and wrong.
He had watched Mo Qishen grow up and knew his character well.
Xiu Jiao blurted out incredulously, “What could I have possibly done that was considered over-the-line? Rongping, we’ve been husband and wife for a lifetime. You know what kind of person I am! How could you think that about me?”
Mo Rongping placed the child onto the sofa, “If you don’t want to tell me, then I’ll go find Zhiyuan myself.”
Xiu Jiao’s brows furrowed, and a sudden wave of melancholy swept through her heart.
She was reminded of Mo Qishen’s remark.
Her marriage to Mo Rongping had been arranged.
In a relationship without a foundation of affection, even the most basic trust from Mo Rongping was out of reach for her.
Despite all these years of living conscientiously, Mo Rongping still didn’t trust her.
