Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 971

Chapter 971: Chapter 971: Parental Favoritism

Lin Zhiyi finished reading the comments and sighed once more, acknowledging that while netizens love to gossip, their perception is sharp.

"A single comment hits the essence: Wasn’t your sister’s boyfriend snatched away?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Yin’s phone rang.

She glanced at the screen, looking helplessly at Lin Zhiyi.

"Seems like the first ones who can’t sit still are my parents."

"Or maybe your sister instructed them, just to probe through your parents what they intend to do," Lin Zhiyi reminded.

Chu Yin nodded and answered the phone.

"Mom..."

As soon as she spoke, Mrs. Chu’s somewhat imposing voice questioned her.

"A Yin, what nonsense are you spouting online? How is your sister supposed to face people in the future?"

Chu Yin’s expression froze.

Sure enough, despite their repentance last night, their hearts still harbored only Chu Wu.

She no longer hoped for familial affection, and instead, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, Chu Wu and Mo Xuyao are in a normal relationship, what’s wrong with talking about it? Or do you also think they’re not in a normal relationship?"

"You..."

Mrs. Chu was surprised by Chu Yin’s response.

The words she had previously said returned like a boomerang, hitting her right between the eyes.

She defended herself, "You shouldn’t disclose their business willy-nilly, should you?"

"If I don’t clarify, people will think I randomly snatch others’ boyfriends, which I don’t like. It’s better to explain, to avoid some people causing trouble for me."

Chu Yin had spoken to this extent.

Making it clear she would definitely not help Chu Wu explain.

Mrs. Chu was so angry she breathed heavily, her faltering words could even be heard by Lin Zhiyi.

But in the end, Mrs. Chu said nothing more.

Chu Yin deliberately said, "Mom, isn’t this perfect? Haven’t you always wanted them to get married soon? Now that it’s public, isn’t it just right?"

"No, no." Mrs. Chu refused without thinking, "Marriage is a big deal, how can it be so casual? Let’s wait and see."

Hearing this, Chu Yin looked up at Lin Zhiyi.

Lin Zhiyi leaned in closer, a bit puzzled.

Previously, Chu Yin had mentioned that Mrs. Chu, to have Chu Wu marry Mo Xuyao, had encouraged marriage both openly and secretly many times.

Even in front of Chu Yin, the ex-girlfriend, Mrs. Chu was not at all discreet.

It could be imagined how anxious Mrs. Chu was.

Now she actually refused outright.

Lin Zhiyi gave Chu Yin a knowing look.

Chu Yin understood and hinted, "Last night Mo Xuyao talked to me about some past matters, I’m not sure what he meant."

When a man reminisces with his ex-girlfriend, most likely he wants to reconcile.

Mrs. Chu couldn’t be unaware of this.

On the other end, Mrs. Chu suddenly went very quiet, but leaning in closely, the faint sound of several people whispering could be heard.

Looks like Chu Wu was with them.

Soon, Mrs. Chu sighed, "Ah, A Yin, if you haven’t forgotten Mr. Mo, I can talk to Xiao Wu. We’ve owed you too much; now Mom just wants to make it up to you. Even if Xiao Wu is unwilling, Mom will help you snatch Mr. Mo."

Snatch?

Ha, their line of thinking is truly strange.

Lin Zhiyi tugged Chu Yin’s sleeve.

Suppressing her anger, Chu Yin followed Mrs. Chu’s words, "Mom, what kind of person do you take me for? A malicious woman who snatches her sister’s boyfriend? Besides, I haven’t liked Mo Xuyao for a long time. Now their happiness is more important than anything else. You don’t need to test me, I won’t agree."

"No, I’m not testing you, I..."

"Alright, I have something else to do, I’ll hang up now. By the way, tell Xiao Wu I wish them happiness."

With that, Chu Yin directly hung up the phone.

There’s no point in continuing the conversation any further.

They feared Mrs. Chu would morally coerce her.

Lin Zhiyi said, "Judging by your mom’s tone, she and Chu Wu are just as desperate to have you and Mo Xuyao together. Looks like Third Young Master is right, they’ve certainly set a new target. This is all a setup against you."

Chu Yin exhaled heavily.
