Chapter 150: Give Me an Explanation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Because of me?” Gu Lian looked at Mo Yu in confusion. How did he become the main culprit who caused Mo Yu to suffer?
Mo Yu met Gu Lian’s gaze and made up a reason guiltily. “Think about it. Who was the first person to be engaged to you? It was Mo Xue, right?”
“But ever since I became the one taking care of you, didn’t the relationship between the two of you fade? Mo Xue is such a proud person. How could she tolerate what’s hers becoming someone else’s overnight? That’s why she started to frame me.”
As Mo Yu spoke, her confidence suddenly increased. She felt that this explanation was very reasonable.
Although the plot of love turning into hatred was clichA?, it was definitely a very good excuse.
However, Gu Lian was obviously not fooled by her. He looked at Mo Yu doubtfully. “But they were the ones who suggested the transfer of the engagement first. They said that the real daughter of the Mo family, which is you, came back, so a fake naturally can’t replace the engagement. She has no reason to hate me.”
Gu Lian pondered for a moment and continued, “Besides, I was still in a coma at that time. Although I could sense the outside world, I couldn’t move or express anything. If she took a fancy to me, doesn’t that mean that she’s crazy? At that time, everyone kickeds a man who is down and felt that I would never wake up in my life. Shouldn’t she find a better husband?”
Mo Yu was about to break out in cold sweat. She knew that Gu Lian’s brain was very useful in the novel. In the later descriptions, the author used up a countless number of words to describe Gu Lian’s sharp mind.
Mo Yu originally thought that Gu Lian only had a unique opinion on business issues. She did not expect him to have such thoughts on emotional matters. Mo Yu’s mind raced as she tried to think of a reasonable explanation.
“Then is there a possibility that she’s the kind of person who can’t bear to see others lead a better life than her? Hubby, think about it. Now that you’re awake, the Gu Corporation has also begun to recover and flourish. As for me, a country bumpkin that she has always looked down on, I joined a wealthy family just like that. How can she not be jealous?”
“What’s more, I became the finale model at the jewelry exhibition this time. I wore fancy jewelry and ate the best food. Photos of me posted on the platform could obtain a lot of clicks and attention. Of course, Mo Xue would be envious. She probably changed my shoes this time to see me make a fool of myself.”
Gu Lian thought for a moment and felt that this explanation seemed to work. He looked at the time and stood up to walk out.
The stone gambling and free exhibition would begin after the auction today. He could not wait to see how Gu Chen would frame him.
Moreover, according to social etiquette, the host had to appear at the end of the auction.
When he went out, Gu Lian did not forget to remind Mo Yu to keep the evidence. If Mo Xue did anything in the future, she would have something to use against her.
Mo Yu nodded in agreement. After sending Gu Lian off, she leaned against the sofa and took a deep breath before walking into the changing room to change.
Today’s auction was an important day for the male and female leads in the book. She did not want to miss this plot. However, before going to the auction, she had to take off all her heavy and complicated clothes and jewelry.
This look weighed more than ten kilograms. Just wearing it for the show had already tired Mo Yu out. Fortunately, she had lived in the apocalypse for three years, and her physique and willpower had improved significantly. If it were any other model, they might not be able to finish the show completely.
Mo Yu changed into the white evening gown she had prepared in advance and felt relieved. Her body and mind were much more relaxed. She packed everything and placed them in the safe before leaving the room.
The total price of these things was too expensive. Mo Yu was afraid that something would happen when she was not around, so she asked the two bodyguards to guard the door and leave after the entire banquet ended.
After Mo Xue brought Bai Feng around a few times, she found an excuse to go to the toilet and left the main venue. She wanted to ask Mo Yu why she did not wear the shoes.
When she arrived at the backstage lounge and saw the two bodyguards guarding the door, Mo Xue subconsciously felt that Mo Yu had specially arranged for them to arrest her here. Her secret swapping of shoes had already been exposed.
Mo Xue immediately pretended to take the wrong path and turned around to leave this troublesome place.
The next second, she saw Mo Yu leaning against the wall in the aisle and greeting her. She was still holding the pair of high heels that had been switched.
“My dear sister, aren’t you going to explain to me why my shoes turned into counterfeit goods?”
