Chapter 1101: So She Is Mo Xicheng’s Girlfriend (17)

His face was tilted to the side from the slap, burning from the force of the hit. It was a familiar feeling by now.
He had been hit by Yao Lili countless times ever since he had been a child.
It wasn’t that he had never retaliated.
When he was a child, he could not fight back when he was beaten.
Eventually, he understood.
When he went to junior high school, during the mid-semester examination, he felt that after so many years, he no longer wanted to be repeatedly suppressed.
Hence, he had scored 60 for every one of his papers.
It was easy to do badly, but tough to score exactly 60 for every subject.
It was then that Dad Mo and Li Shu realized his academic capabilities.
Hence when Mo Zhi came back gloating, Li Shu gave him an icy look.
Dad Mo, on the other hand, said a few unkind words to Yao Lili.
At the time, Yao Lili’s expression had soured immediately. The moment she got home, she gave Mo Xicheng a beating.
He did not fight back, he only tried to dodge it. Looking at Yao Lili, he said, “I did nothing wrong!”
Then he slung his backpack over his shoulder and ran out.
At the time, he had wanted to run away from home.
Leave this rotten family.
He wandered along the streets alone with his backpack on his back.
A young teenager facing a murky future, feeling lost.
He lost track of time as he wandered around, until the next morning a car pulled up in front of him.
Then the door swung open and Li Shu stepped out elegantly.
In that instant, he was squatting in front of a shop that had not yet opened, curled into a ball and shivering.
She cast her gaze on him from above.
After a moment, she spoke, “Come with me.”
From a young age, he had had a certain respect for Li Shu. Hence, he obediently got onto his feet.
First she took him to have some bread for breakfast, and then they went to an orphanage in Beijing city.
Looking at him, Li Shu asked, “Are you feeling sorry for yourself, sorry that life is bad?”
Mo Xicheng nodded.
Pointing at the orphans in the building, Li Shu said, “Do you have any idea how many people in this world are worse off than you? They don’t know who their parents are, and no matter how much they wish to have a home, they can’t find one.”
After these words, she looked at Mo Xicheng and said unhurriedly, “You’ve done nothing wrong, but your existence was the original sin. You cannot stand out more than Mo Zhi, because he is the eventual head of the Mo family. Your existence is a threat to him. If you feel wronged, then have you ever thought of Mo Zhi’s feelings?”
“He was the only son of the Mo family, but you were your father’s mistake.”
“And your mother… Perhaps you had never realized, but she hides your capabilities and talent because she wants to protect you.”
Mo Xicheng paused and looked at Li Shu, not quite understanding her explanation.
Li Shu continued unhurriedly, “Because if you become a threat to Mo Zhi, I will not let you grow up so comfortably.”
Mo Xicheng was stunned.
Even though her words were vicious, he didn’t feel the least bit afraid.
At that time, he did not understand why Li Shu had said these things.
But eventually he did.
She was a woman who did things above the line.
She had told him openly that he had to watch himself, because if he outshone her son, she would not let him off easily.
This was actually the kindest thing she could have done.
