Yang Guoping’s question stunned everyone in the room, their eyes widening in shock!
Yan Xinxin was no exception.
How could Mo Chuxi suddenly say such things? Could it be that he was going to reveal the deal between the two of them?
If these people found out about their arrangement, Yan Xinxin would never be able to hold her head high again...
With that thought, her mind was in chaos. She put her son down and quickly walked over.
Seeing Yan Xinxin walk over, Mo Chuxi gently parted his lips to call her name, his graceful figure moving to her side.
The tenderness in his gaze was so overwhelming it left Yan Zhirou frozen, unable to move or breathe!
What on earth was happening?!
Wasn’t Young Master Mo here to see me? Why was he calling Yan Xinxin so tenderly?! And why was he looking at this little brat with such a warm, smiling expression?
There had to be some kind of misunderstanding!
Yan Zhirou forced herself to maintain a seductive smile, hurrying to ingratiate herself.
"Young Master Mo, please have a seat and drink the coffee I made!"
"I never drink coffee."
Mo Chuxi didn’t even look back, coldly refusing her, but his tone soon softened.
"What I like most is the lemon water Xinxin makes for me."
Yan Zhirou’s fingers gripped the coffee cup tighter and tighter. Ye Lirong was completely stunned.
This... What on earth was going on?!
Yan Xinxin felt as though she might turn to stone. She couldn’t process Mo Chuxi’s behavior at this moment.
"Y-Young Master Mo, do you know our Xinxin?"
Ye Lirong gathered her courage and asked probingly, her disbelief evident.
Mo Chuxi looked at the slightly dazed little woman in front of him, his long eyes narrowing at Ye Lirong’s conflicted expression.
"I’m pursuing your daughter. How could I not know her?"
"You, you’re saying you’re pursuing Xinxin?"
Ye Lirong reluctantly uttered the question, while Yan Zhirou’s expression darkened into a cloud of fury.
"Why? Can I not pursue Yan Xinxin?"
"No, no, no! Young Master Mo, that’s not what I meant!"
Ye Lirong waved her hands and shook her head hastily, lacking even the courage to contradict Mo Chuxi.
Yet inside, her feelings were just as chaotic as Yan Zhirou’s—completely shattered!
Mo Chuxi was actually pursuing Yan Xinxin!
How could something be true?
The numerous aunts and relatives, sensing the sudden change in the situation, now felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. In their hearts, they were cursing both Yan Zhirou and Ye Lirong!
It was all because of them spreading the word that Young Master Mo, the heir of the grandest family, was interested in Yan Zhirou. That’s why they had eagerly come over today to watch and curry favor. They’d even just joined in to humiliate and berate Yan Xinxin. And now? It turned out the one Mo Chuxi liked was Yan Xinxin!
Now they thought of it, Yan Xinxin was clearly younger and more beautiful than Yan Zhirou. For any sane person, wouldn’t she be the obvious choice?
Yan Xinxin finally understood Mo Chuxi’s motive. She had wronged him. He had come here for her.
"Y-Young Master Mo, do you really, truly like our Xinxin?"
Ye Lirong asked again, now quickly switching tactics and deliberately branding Yan Xinxin as part of her family.
"Xinxin is gentle, beautiful, virtuous, and intelligent. She’s the woman I want, and the best candidate to be Mrs. Mo."
Mo Chuxi spoke, and the entire room was more than shocked—they were as if struck by lightning. Everyone stood there, stunned and speechless!
After the initial shock, Yan Zhirou could no longer maintain her composure. She stormed over to Yan Xinxin.
"Young Master Mo, don’t be fooled by Yan Xinxin’s appearance! She’s a completely unchaste woman! Look at that boy over there—he’s the illegitimate child she had five years ago after messing around with some man! God knows how many men she’s slept with. She’s absolutely unworthy of you!"
