The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex - Chapter 526
Chapter 526: This Man Is Definitely Not a Good Man
Shu Man sat beside Li Yumo and gently stroked her back as she tried to console her friend. “Alright, Yumo. Don’t be too upset. I already told you earlier that this man was not a good man,” Shu Man said with a heavy sigh.
They had both heard the exchange earlier and she had stolen a quick glance at the man. She admitted that he was handsome but there was definitely a problem with his character and he wasn’t someone who would make a good match.
Li Yumo sank her face in her hands. This was a great blow to her confidence since she had never experienced anything like this. She had been invited to have dinner at the Mo mansion but now, the man she was supposed to meet refused to even meet her. She didn’t understand why he was so averse to meeting her. Was she that detestable?
“Shu Man… why do you think he doesn’t want to see me?” Li Yumo said as she grabbed Shu Man’s hand. She couldn’t understand why he was so cold.
“I truly don’t know either,” Shu Man shook her head speechlessly. “It is possible that he doesn’t want to get remarried at this point in time and that this was solely arranged by his mother. Cheer up, he’s not worth it.”
Shu Man said earnestly. Then, she pulled her friend to her feet and looked at the living room where Mo Yixuan was still arguing with his mother. They didn’t look like they were going to stop anytime soon.
“Alright, Yumo, let’s go. There’s no point staying any longer,” Shu Man said.
The entire situation was getting on her nerves and she felt that everything had only been a misunderstanding. It was obvious to her that Mo Yixuan had no interest in this matchmaking date nor in marriage.
Li Yumo paused for a moment as though she was hesitant to leave. She looked at Mo Yixuan in the main hall, the man whom she had thought could be her husband. She had even started to fantasize about marrying him, heedless of the fact that he had already gone through two divorces and was a father of two.
“Let’s go!” Shu Man tugged hard at her friend’s hand and dragged her out of the living room.
They had to leave in a dignified manner and now that Mo Yixuan was so adamant about not meeting Li Yumo, there wasn’t any point in them remaining at the Mo mansion.
Mo Yixuan and Li Qin were engaged in a fierce argument in the main hall and they were so upset that their faces were both flushed red.
“Mum, if you continue to insist on doing things your way, Yuan Yuan and I will move out and stay somewhere else. Then, you’d be able to live life as you wish,” Mo Yixuan said coldly and his eyes were bloodshot as though he had reached the end of his rope.
Li Qin’s face was also completely red and she stuck her hand by her sides as she screamed at her son, “You’re going to be the death of me, aren’t you? Ah… if you think you’re that great, then feel free to send me to my grave in anger!”
Li Qin approached her son and clenched her right fist tightly into a ball.
Li Ya quickly held her back and said, “Please calm down.”
“Why should I calm down?” Li Qin shrugged her sister’s hands off her and shouted, “Didn’t you hear him earlier? How dare he tell me that he’d move away with Yuan Yuan? He wants to abandon me and he clearly doesn’t care about me any longer.”
Li Qin grew more agitated and her chest started to heave rapidly as she gasped loudly for air.
Li Ya could only walk over to her nephew when she saw that her sister was having difficulty breathing and pulled him to the doorway. “Yixuan, don’t fight with your mother. You shouldn’t blame your mother for this incident and if anyone is to blame, it is me. I told your mother that this girl would be a good match for you and wanted to introduce her to you. Get angry at me if you will, but don’t shout at your mother, okay?”
Li Ya hadn’t expected her nephew to be so stubborn and resistant to the match. She had assumed that he would merely treat the girl coldly and at the very least, would end up as friends with the girl.
She hadn’t expected him to be so averse to this.
