Chapter 706: 708, for support (first update)

Luo Yu’s face was a mask of panic as she ran over again and clutched onto Madam Mo’s legs, saying, "Aunt Mo, I’m sorry, it was all my fault before. I shouldn’t have relied on my pregnancy to anger you. I apologize to you, I was in the wrong! Please, can you forgive me? I beg you! Even if not for my sake, think of the monk’s face and spare the Buddha’s. The child in my belly... it truly is Zhixuan’s..."

Luo Yu had always believed that the child she was carrying belonged to Mo Zhixuan. The video, and that one-eyed gardener, they were all just a play directed by Chu Jin.

During that time, aside from those ten old men, she hadn’t been involved with any other men.

Moreover, those ten old men were a trap set by Chu Jin herself.

If it weren’t for Chu Jin, would she have been violated by those ten old men?

Chu Jin was a slut! A damned slut who wouldn’t die a good death! Not only had she stolen her Mo Zhixuan, but she had also schemed against her! If not for Chu Jin, how could she have fallen to this point?

Luo Yu held on tight to Madam Mo’s legs and continued.

"Aunt Mo, please believe me, the baby in my belly is truly the Mo family’s flesh and blood, they are all Zhixuan’s children! You can’t disown them! You are their grandmother!"

As Luo Yu spoke, she wept bitterly.

Today, she must win over Madam Mo.

Today, she must return to the Mo family.

Return to a life of luxury befitting the upper class.

At the same time, Luo Yu also regretted her past arrogance and conceit.

"Get lost! I feel disgusted just looking at you!" Madam Mo pushed her away with a kick and said with extreme loathing, "A whore like you should have died long ago! How dare you show your face at the Chu family’s home?"

Madam Mo was a devout Buddhist, who had seldom used coarse language in her life, but Luo Yu had driven her to break her own rules!

Seeing Luo Yu made her lose control of her emotions.

Hearing Madam Mo’s words, Luo Yu became frantic, "No, it’s not like that, Aunt Mo, you must believe me! The real slut is Chu Jin! That little whore, it’s all because of her that I’ve ended up like this today. She tinkered with the video, I have nothing to do with that one-eyed gardener!"

"Think about it, how could I be attracted to someone as ugly as him? So, it’s all the conspiracy of that little whore Chu Jin, please don’t be deceived by her! Don’t worry, one day, I will kill that little whore Chu Jin!"

By the last sentence, Luo Yu got up from the ground, her eyes flashing with a vicious light.

"Slap!" A loud slap landed on Luo Yu’s face, making her already swollen face even more grotesque.

"Who are you calling a little slut? It’s clearly you who’s the whore! If I ever hear another word of disrespect from you toward my daughter-in-law, I’ll tear your mouth apart!"

Madam Mo could no longer tolerate any slander against Chu Jin. That slap was both for Chu Jin’s revenge and for avenging her own foolish past.

How stupid she had been before!

Madam Mo wished she could slap herself too!

"Aunt Mo! You hit me!" Luo Yu held her cheek, disbelievingly looking at Madam Mo.

In the past at the Mo family, Madam Mo had valued her more than her own life! But today, Madam Mo had twice raised her hand against her!

This was incredibly hard for Luo Yu to accept.

How could this be!

Why wouldn’t Madam Mo believe her?

A nameless panic slowly took over Luo Yu’s heart.

She began to fear.

Was it possible that she could never return to that comfortable noble life?

Madam Mo sneered, "Hit you? What about it? I wish I could beat you to death!"

Madam Mo truly wished she could beat Luo Yu to death but then thought that there must be a reason Chu Jin had allowed her to appear at the Chu family’s home, perhaps to stay in Zhao Yan’s room, which wouldn’t have happened without cause.

So, Madam Mo held back her anger.

Otherwise, she truly might have killed her.

"Aunt Mo..." Luo Yu cried out loud, "You can’t be so heartless. The baby I’m carrying is indeed from your Mo family! I swear on my life! Even if you don’t acknowledge me, you must acknowledge your own grandchildren, right?"

"Aunt Mo, I know I was in the wrong before, I know I’ve made mistakes, and I’m apologizing to you, can’t you please forgive me?" At this point, Luo Yu knelt down.

"Aunt Mo, I swear, once you take me back this time, I’ll never be like before. I won’t make you angry or bother you again. I will serve you well and treat you as my own mother. Aunt Mo, even if you disown me, you can’t disown the children in my belly! No matter what, the children are innocent, they are Mo family descendants."

Luo Yu kept kowtowing in penance, her forehead swelling from the impact.

She was truly at her wits’ end.

Madam Mo was unwilling to believe her, so she had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.

The most crucial thing now was to return; the scores could be settled slowly later.

"Moreover, I promise that once the children are born, I will leave. I’ll go far away! You’ll never have to see me again."

Luo Yu’s expression was sincere as if she really was a good mother wholly devoted to her children.

Madam Mo’s face subtly softened upon hearing this, "You promise that after giving birth, you will go far away? Never to bother me again? To tell you the truth, looking at someone like you one more minute is shortening my own life."

Madam Mo’s words, faint and probing, were loaded with meaning.

Luo Yu’s eyes lit up at this.

She knew Madam Mo wouldn’t abandon her. Madam Mo’s seeming heartlessness was merely due to being deceived by that little whore Chu Jin.

Now that the misunderstanding was cleared, Madam Mo still cared for the child in her belly as much as ever.

The child was now her greatest support.

Chu Jin wants to take back the position of Ninth Mistress?

No way!

In the end, that position will still be hers.

All that talk about taking good care of the old Madam Mo after giving birth, and leaving far away after that, are all Luo Yu’s stalling tactics.

Luo Yu now only wants to return to the Mo family as soon as possible. She no longer wants to be controlled by Chu Jin.

Once she’s back in the Mo family, she will handle the old Madam Mo just fine, submissive and obedient.

At the thought, Luo Yu wore a smug expression. Chu Jin definitely didn’t expect that the old Madam Mo would take her away.

From now on, the Mo family would again be her domain.

Luo Yu nodded repeatedly, "Auntie Mo, rest assured, I guarantee that I will leave after giving birth. Okay, let’s hurry and leave now! I really don’t want to stay here another second!"

Luo Yu was very happy, so happy that she didn’t notice the old Madam Mo’s expression was a little cold, and at the bottom of her eyes, there was a hint of mockery.

"Alright," the old Madam Mo said with a smile, "Let’s hurry then. You are with child, how can you live in such a place? Rest assured, I have kept your room ready for you at home."

At these words, Luo Yu was even happier!

This damn old hag.

She had never given up on her or the child in her womb!

If that’s the case, why did that old hag treat her like that just now? She even slapped her!

Doesn’t the old hag fear she might have caused a miscarriage?

The old hag must have done it on purpose!

After all, her previous punches had always been with the intention of keeping the child but not the mother.

With this in mind, Luo Yu sat there, deliberately feigning difficulty, "I’m sorry, but I don’t want to leave now."

At these words, the old Madam Mo immediately showed a very anxious look, "Why not leave suddenly? Didn’t we agree to leave together? If you don’t go, what will happen to the child in your womb?"

"I don’t want to go, and that’s it," Luo Yu snorted coldly, "Old hag, didn’t you just refuse to acknowledge my child? What? Have you recognized your mistake now?"

Luo Yu was very proud, feeling like she had returned to the days at the Mo family.

During that time, this damned old hag would daily wash her clothes, cook for her, and treated her like an ancestor.

Now, she had finally found that feeling again.

Hahaha, it really is exhilarating.

"Yes," said the old Madam Mo, scared, "I know I was wrong. Please come back with me. Don’t be naughty now. The baby is important."

Luo Yu failed to see anything off with the old Madam Mo’s behavior.

She felt that the old Madam Mo should act like this, totally respectful towards her.

"Alright, since you’ve said so much, I’ll go with you." Luo Yu thought it was about time and stood up. It was enough for her to be sure that the old Madam Mo still cared about the child in her womb.

As for the accounts of that slap and those two kicks, they could be slowly settled after returning to the Mo family.

By then, she would persecute this old hag ruthlessly, letting her know that she was not to be trifled with.

"Come with me," said the old Madam Mo, glancing at her and walking ahead.

"Hold on! Have you brought Qingyi with you? Hurry up and have her come up to help me. I’m pregnant, so it is dangerous to go down the stairs. It would be safer if you two supported me."

"Don’t forget, the one in my belly, carries your Mo family’s golden grandchild!"

In an instant, Luo Yu reverted to her nature, and as before, she acted recklessly on the pretext of pregnancy.

Under Luo Yu’s smug gaze, the old Madam Mo slowly opened her mouth, her tone tinged with mockery, "Luo Yu, do you think I’m particularly stupid, an old woman easy to bully, who you can deceive over and over, and manipulate as you wish?"

At that comment, Luo Yu’s brow twitched.

Damn it!

She might have gotten cocky too soon. This damned old hag didn’t seem as easy to manipulate as before!

Realizing this, Luo Yu immediately changed her tune, "Auntie Mo, I was just joking. You don’t need to help me. It will be enough if Qingyi alone assists me; actually, my condition isn’t really that delicate."

Luo Yu smiled and continued, "Auntie Mo, please go and call Qingyi up."

To have Qingyi help her down the stairs meant that the Mo family’s servants would all see. Luo Yu hadn’t forgotten how they mocked her this morning when she arrived.

Starting with those despicable servants.

She would tear every one of their mouths, making them realize that the upper class will always be the upper class!

The old Madam Mo just watched Luo Yu, her eyes flickering with mockery, an almost unreal feeling in them.

"Auntie Mo, I am talking to you! Can’t you hear?" Luo Yu was not pleased! What the hell was this old hag doing? Was she being too nice to her?

Now she dares to ignore her!

Old hag! Doesn’t she want to hold her grandchild?

Luo Yu felt she could no longer be oppressed by this damned old woman. If this continued, would she have a say in the Mo family? Luo Yu placed her hand on her hip, stuck out her belly, and went on, "Auntie Mo, I’m telling you, if Qingyi doesn’t come up to support me today, then I just... I just won’t go back with you!"

The last sentence Luo Yu said with great authority.

Under Luo Yu’s self-satisfied gaze, the old Madam Mo slowly raised her eyes, her lips curled up in a faint smile, she slowly said, "Luo Yu, do you really think I should carry you back in a palanquin, and after we get home, treat you like an ancestor? Is that what you think is appropriate?"

This statement, if carefully considered, was very problematic, but Luo Yu, in her triumph, only heard the surface meaning.

She even thought that the old Madam Mo might really treat her as honorably as an ancestor.
