Chapter 2  : Severing Ties

Fang Liu sat motionless on the bed, her cold and indifferent face covered by a veil. After some time, she slowly said, “I will marry into the Mo family, but first, I want to sever all ties with the Fang family. We have to sign an agreement, and then the Fang family must hand over all of my identification documents to me. Otherwise, I will not get married.”

Standing at the side, Fang Bin and Xu Xiu were shocked when Fang Liu said this. ‘What is this dimwit saying?’ they thought.

The people who came to collect Fang Liu weren’t aware that she was just a dimwit, but they were a little surprised to hear that Fang Liu would make such a request. However, they only cared more about picking her up. After all, they could not miss this auspicious occasion.

The groomsman who came to pick up the bride turned his head and said to Fang Bin, “Mr. Fang, since Miss Fang wants to marry into our family, this request must be met. Quickly get it sorted.”

The servant of the Mo family spoke with such lofty arrogance in the presence of outsiders. His tone did not sound like a suggestion, and it was more of a demand.

Fang Bin and Xu Xiu walked toward the door and whispered amongst themselves.

“Why did that dimwit suddenly say such a thing? She’s not just a dimwit after all.” Xu Xiu was shocked and angry. She had bullied and oppressed Fang Liu for more than ten years, but now Xu Xiu was the one that was being plotted against. Her expression became ugly from the rage that she was feeling.

“Perhaps she had met someone on the outside during those days when she was kicked out. Could she have met with her mother’s lawyer? Forget it. I don’t care.” Fang Bin wasn’t concerned. All he cared about was the one hundred million in betrothal money.

“She’s just a dimwit. I’ve taken care of her for so many years. I have had enough of her idiocy. That burden now belongs to the Mo family.”

The Fang couple collected Fang Liu’s identification documents and handed them over. They then proceeded to sign the agreement to sever Fang Liu’s relationship with their family.

Seeing that she had gotten what she wanted, Fang Liu felt a huge weight get lifted from her shoulders. Only then did she stand up and proceed to follow the servant of the Mo family. When she arrived at the Mo family’s home, she was led away for more than half an hour before entering a room.

Sitting on the bed and taking a deep breath, Fang Liu thought that the Mo family’s home was unbelievably huge. She wouldn’t be locked up in a small dark room, unable to eat her fill, constantly be on guard against being pushed down the stairs by her stepsister. Thinking of this, Fang Liu felt that marrying into the Mo family wasn’t such a bad thing after all.

In addition, she was married to a paralyzed old man in his seventies, so he definitely wouldn’t have any feelings for her. Thus, she can peacefully give birth to her child in the Mo family home.

As her mind was racing, the room door was pushed open, and someone walked in. ‘It must be a servant.’ After all, her husband was an old man who was paralyzed and bedridden.

Fang Liu licked her lips and said softly, “Can you please get me a glass of water?”

Fang Liu had not eaten even a single grain of rice since morning. The person walked toward her and stopped for a moment. Mo Yu lowered his head and looked at the woman sitting on the bed obediently. He gazed intensely at her.

Crash!

Before Fang Liu could scream, she felt the veil covering her face had been lifted. ‘Didn’t the servants of the Mo family know the rules? Could anyone just lift the bride’s veil?’

Fang Liu raised her head gloomily and glared at the man who had lifted her veil. However, she was shocked.

The man in front of her was tall and had sharp facial features. He has sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was so handsome that it was breathtaking. The moment he appeared, It was as if everything in the world had been robbed of its brilliance and reduced to a mere background that complimented him.

“Who are you?” Fang Liu flinched backward. “Why are you so ignorant of the rules? I only wanted to drink some water, but you ended up lifting my veil.”

‘Rules? Did this woman mistake me as a servant of the Mo family?’ Mo Yu’s sharp eyebrows rose, and his thin lips curled into a cold smile.

“I’m your husband.”

Fang Liu’s eyes widened. ‘What? Didn’t I marry a paralyzed seventy-year-old man? How did he suddenly turn out to be such a handsome man?’

Mo Yu did not care that she had a surprised expression on her face. He lowered his gaze to look at her stomach.. His expression seemed a little strange.
