"If my father is released, please don't say that in front of him, okay?" Luo Sang reminded him.
"I understand." Nian Junting nodded.
…
After leaving the police station, Luo Sang saw Mo Liuxi standing outside the police station with a cigarette in his hand. He was good-looking, so even if he smoked, he still looked good.
"Junting, you guys go to the car first. I want to talk to Liuxi in private," Luo Sang said to Nian Junting.
Nian Junting frowned, but still nodded and got into the car.
"Boys shouldn't smoke." Luo Sang walked over and took the cigarette from Mo Liuxi's hand. "You see, Junting never smokes. It's not good for his health."
"I'm upset," Mo Liuxi said blandly.
"You're upset because you care about that person." Luo Sang smiled. "Otherwise, you can be calm."
Mo Liuxi was silent.
Yes, he thought that he could be calm when he saw Xu Zhengxuan, but he found that he couldn't control his emotions.
"Liuxi, when I found out that Mom didn't die, I was happy, but I also felt a little resentful. Why did she abandon me after giving birth to me?"
Luo Sang said sadly, "Later, I realized that she didn't have a good life abroad. It was hard for a woman to raise a child in a foreign country. Even if she wanted to come back and see me, my father wouldn't allow it. She was afraid that my father would lock her up again.
"But I can't not complain at all. Even if she only came back to see me secretly, I would be satisfied. Even though she's back now, and I can understand her, she still missed a stage in my life. I'm sorry, but I'd rather keep the past and cherish the mother-daughter relationship with her. She's twenty years older than me, which means that she'll always be ahead of me. I'll lose her again, so I don't want to think about the past anymore."
"I'm different from you."
Xu Zhengxuan did everything he could to groom you. As for me, from the time I could remember, I was still in kindergarten. We didn't have enough money, so Mom came to pick me up every day. Sometimes, she would get off work too late, and I would stand alone at the entrance of the kindergarten. It was snowing, and my hands and feet were frostbitten. It hurt to walk. I started doing housework when I was three or four years old. I would step on stools and heat dishes at the kitchen counter.
In the end, the landlord chased us out. In the dead of winter, mother and son were held together under the eaves. Mom gave me all her clothes, and she almost froze to death. There was no one to help her. It wasn't that she didn't want to send me back. No matter what, I was the son of the Xu family, and I would definitely be well-dressed and well-fed. She even bought a plane ticket, but I refused to leave. If I left, she would really be all alone. "
Luo Sang was stunned.
Mo Jin had said that she used to be poor, but she didn't expect it to be to this extent.
"Liuxi …" She gently placed her hand on his shoulder and said, "I'm sorry."
"You're not wrong, but Madam Mo brought me up. She would rather starve herself than give me food. She would rather freeze than put on a cotton-padded jacket for me. Even though she has no power or influence, when I'm bullied, I will still risk it all. When I'm sick, she's the one who won't sleep at night."
"What did the man in the police station do? Did he give me a bite to eat? Did he buy me a piece of clothing? Even if he didn't do it on purpose, and he might not know about my existence, he is still a stranger to me. It's not just because of this that he ruined a woman's life."
"Why do you think Mom didn't remarry for decades? She went through fire and water for her first marriage, but she ended up like this. She has a shadow in her heart, and she doesn't dare to marry again. She doesn't trust any man. She even has claustrophobia because she was locked in her room for too long. She can't stay alone."
"To you, maybe he's a good father, but to me, he's a failure who hurt my mother."
Luo Sang was silent.
She also wondered why Mo Jin didn't look for him again.
She thought that it was because she couldn't forget Xu Zhengxuan.
So that was the reason.
Mo Liuxi took a deep breath and said, "I'm going back to Xia City. I've seen him. I think he'll be out in a few days. He's my father, but I don't want to have too much to do with him."
"… Okay."
…
After returning to the villa.
Mo Liuxi packed his things and left. He didn't ask Nian Junting to send him off.
After he left, Luo Sang sat alone on the balcony.
"Luo Luo, what did you guys talk about? Didn't you say that you wanted to cultivate a better relationship with him?" Nian Junting gently pressed his hands on her shoulders.
"It's not too late to cultivate him when we go back. If he's unhappy here, there's no point in forcing him to stay." Luo Sang looked at the sunset outside and said, "Junting, I think I'm much happier than Liuxi. I want to treat him better in the future."
"Okay."
After staying in An City for three days, An Lan brought news from the police station. Yi Jingxi, Xu Zhengxuan, and Director Cheng's cases had been transferred to the court, and the trial would be held on Friday.
No matter how Yi Jingxi and Director Cheng's sentences were going to be, Xu Zhengxuan would definitely be released this time.
On Thursday afternoon, Nian Junting was having a video conference in the study. Luo Sang heard the doorbell and thought that it was An Lan. However, she saw Chu Lei standing outside.
In the surveillance video, she was standing at the door and looking around.
Luo Sang had only seen Chu Lei once. That time, she was dressed in a dignified manner, but today, she looked like she had lost her soul and her hair was disheveled.
Luo Sang hesitated whether to open the door or not.
The doorbell kept ringing. Nian Junting came downstairs and asked, "Why don't you open the door?"
"Chu Lei is outside," Luo Sang said hesitantly. "I think it's about Yi Jingxi."
Nian Junting saw her hesitation and pressed the button to open the door. "Let her in. She's caused so much harm to your family. She has to take a closer look."
The two of them walked out together. Chu Lei timidly walked in. When she saw Luo Sang, she immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Luo Sang.
Luo Sang was pregnant, so she didn't dare to walk up to her. Nian Junting looked at her blandly.
Seeing that kowtowing for a while didn't work, Chu Lei knelt on both legs and walked to Luo Sang. She grabbed Luo Sang's trousers and cried, "Miss Xu, I beg you, please ask the judge to give Jingxi a lighter sentence. He's innocent. I've caused him so much harm in his life. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have lied to him. I'm wrong. If you want to blame someone, blame me. If you want to do something, do it to me.
I don't care if you send me to jail. "Luo Sang was angry.
In her eyes, Chu Lei was even more disgusting than Jiang Qifei.
"Now you're begging me for mercy. Did you stand up and tell me the truth when my father was in jail and Yi Jingxi made me lose everything?"
