Chapter 130: Are You Hiding Something From Me?
Mo Shan spoke sympathetically, but her gentle voice was a sharp contrast to the ruthlessness in her eyes.
“Shan, you are too sensible for your own good. You care so much about him, but he probably doesn’t appreciate it!”
Suddenly, Mo Shan had an idea. “Dad, you know I’ve been in the city recently and got along well with Zhaoyang. She just told me she likes someone, but could not work up the courage to speak to him about it. He is from a good family, but she thought she might not be worthy of him because of her family background. Why don’t you visit Uncle Huo when you have time and ask her mother about the issue? That will be a great help to me.”
“Why do you still have time to worry about others?” Mo Yuan asked helplessly. They should be discussing about his daughter now.
“Oh, it’s only a small matter, I try to help when I can. Besides, I thought the man looks decent!”
She was thinking about Lin Jingzhi, the man who drove her home that night. He was a true gentleman, handsome and courteous. She must find a rare, decent man such as him to be able to convince Huo Yunting and the Huo family that Lu Zhaoyang liked that man.
Of course, it did not matter what Huo Yunting believed, but as long as Lu Zhaoyang got married, Mo Shan knew that the woman would not risk having an affair. Huo Yunting would never consider fooling around with a married woman.
This matter must be settled as quickly as possible for her peace of mind!
“Alright, Daddy will do it.”
“Thanks Dad, bye now!”
After the phone call, Mo Shan’s mood lightened up. She dressed herself up and left the house.
…
Lu Zhaoyang was having a break after finishing lunch when her mother called. She quietly left her desk to take the call.
“Yang Yang!” Xue Yuming sounded excited.
“Mum, what’s the matter?”
She asked softly, but in fact the suspense was killing her.
Mom wouldn’t be asking about what was on the news, right? How should I answer if she does?
“Yang Yang, tell me honestly, are you hiding something from me?”
Lu Zhaoyang’s heart skipped a beat. What was that supposed to mean?
“What are you referring to?”
She tried to clear her head. This was not the time to make a mistake!
“Yang Yang, you’re all grown up now. No matter who you want to be together with, I’ll always support you. Don’t feel inferior because I have a history of divorce. My daughter is the smartest and most beautiful child in the world.”
Xue Yuming was lounging on the sofa, basking under the sun.
She had called her daughter right after hearing the news from Mo Yuan.
“Yang Yang is pretty and good at her job. Even if Huo Yunting refuses to recognize us, you are officially a lady of the Huo family. You are worthy of being married into another family of equal status.”
Now Lu Zhaoyang was confused. Who on earth was her mother talking about?
It was not Huo Yunting, that was for sure. She would have collapsed in devastation, and not be so serene and happy.
Her relationship with Chen was a matter of the past. No one would think to bring that up after so many years.
“Mum, I’m not thinking about that part of my life for now. When I am ready in the future, I know how to handle myself.”
She did not know what her mother was talking about, so her only response was to be vague.
“Yang Yang, if you like someone, you should take initiative and pursue him. Mum is already growing old, and I hope that you find happiness too!”
Xue Yuming wanted her daughter to marry soon, so that she did not have to stay at Thunderbolt Corp and suffer under Huo Yunting.
“Mum, I need to go, someone’s asking for me!”
“Alright, go!”
Lu Zhaoyang returned to her seat, unable to understand what had just happened.
Even if her mother had called just to urge her to get married soon, she would not have spoken like that. What was going on?
