241 What Happened Back Then
After Gu Qingming heard Mrs. Mo relate the story of Mo Junyan’s allergy to women, her mood changed slightly.
She had never thought that the high and mighty man, who looked down on everything in the business world, would have such an unbearable past.
Mrs. Mo casually told him the story of Mo Junyan’s kidnapping. However, for a child to have such serious side effects, this process must have been unimaginably humiliating.
Gu Qingming didn’t know if she should sympathize with Mo Junyan or pity him.
Gu Qingming had also experienced kidnapping when she was young. Although those kidnappers were vicious, these people only wanted money and did not do anything unnecessary. It was really different.
When Mrs. Mo was talking about Mo Junyan, she secretly sized up Gu Qingming from the corner of her eye, wanting to see something from her expression.
However, she felt a little regretful. She only saw Gu Qingming’s cold expression and could not see any other emotions.
Shi Lichun was just an ordinary farmer from the countryside. He really couldn’t imagine how helpless, afraid, and desperate a five or six-year-old child would be after being kidnapped by bad people.
Shi Lichun sighed and said, “It must have been really hard on Little Mo.”
Mrs. Mo said, “That’s right. Actually, what made the child the saddest was that the person who tricked him into kidnapping him was his most trusted nanny. When he was three years old, that nanny came to our house. Then, she was in charge of taking care of Little Yan’er. She arranged everything appropriately.
Little Yan’er was very dependent on her and trusted her very much. When we brought him out to play, he would bring gifts to this nanny from outside. This child really treated her as a very close relative. Who would have thought that one could never judge a book by its cover? That nanny had schemed to get close to our family from the beginning.”
Not to mention Shi Lichun, even Gu Qingming was a little surprised.
This nanny was so scheming.
Shi Lichun asked doubtfully, “Then the nanny has been scheming to get close to your family since the beginning? Why?”
“Why else? Of course, it’s for money and revenge!” At the mention of the nanny, Mrs. Mo’s expression was filled with hatred. “Her husband was once an employee of our company. When the company laid off employees, her husband was one of them. Who would have thought that that man couldn’t accept the company’s dismissal at all? After returning to his hometown, he couldn’t get over it and committed suicide!”
Mo Ronghua added, “At first, we didn’t know that someone would commit suicide because of the layoff laying. Moreover, that man committed suicide when he returned to his hometown in the countryside. Back then, internet technology wasn’t developed. We didn’t receive the news of his suicide until a long time later. When we found out that he had committed suicide, we even sent someone to comfort his family and donated some money. At least his family doesn’t have to worry about life for the time being.”
When Shi Lichun heard this, he said in confusion, “In that case, his family should be grateful. Why would they think of revenge?”
“She believed that it was because the company had laid off her husband that caused him to suffer from depression and commit suicide. If the company hadn’t laid off her husband, he wouldn’t have committed suicide at all. Therefore, she blamed the company for her husband’s death. Most of all, she blamed me, the CEO of the company,” Mo Ronghua explained.
Shi Lichun was shocked. He said, “The company fired her husband, which means that her husband is not capable enough. How could she blame the company?”
It was the survival of the fittest!
The ultimate goal of the company was to earn money and benefits!
Mo Ronghua nodded and said, “That was indeed the case. However, that woman reached a dead end. She always believed that her husband’s suicide was caused by the company’s layoffs. When her husband committed suicide, the pillar of the family collapsed, causing their family to be bullied. After her husband committed suicide, her in-laws joined forces against her and even wanted to chase her out. There was even one time when her in-laws tried to kill her. They wanted to sell her to someone else for a dirty marriage!”
“Huh?” Shi Lichun was shocked again. “Are there actually such vicious in-laws? Couldn’t they have married her off alive instead of killing her?”
Mo Ronghua said, “Her in-laws felt that it was unfair for their son if they were to marry him off alive. Furthermore, there wouldn’t be many betrothal gifts for a second marriage if they were to marry her off alive. Moreover, that woman has a maternal family, so they would definitely want to split the money. However, if they were to secretly kill her and sell her off, no one would know about it. Even if her maternal family found out, it would be useless.”
Shi Lichun said, “Looks like she’s also a pitiful person.”
“That’s right.” Madam Mo’s tone was a little heavy. “There must be something pitiful about hateful people. However, when a person does something wrong, it’s a mistake and there’s no turning back!”
Back then, they had kept that woman as a nanny because they pitied her.
When that woman applied for the job, the information she left behind was that her spouse had died. Coupled with her pitiful background, Mrs. Mo felt compassion and kept her.
The woman was very diligent and meticulous on the job. She was very good at taking care of children. She took care of their son as though he were her own.
Therefore, Little Mo Junyan was very reliant on and trusted that woman. He completely treated her as his family.
Who would have thought that this woman had approached their house with malice from the beginning to take revenge?
Her disguise was really too good! As long as she revealed a little flaw, Mrs. Mo would definitely not let her take care of her son, causing serious consequences.
Every time she thought of it, Mrs. Mo blamed herself and her heart ached.
Mrs. Mo continued, “At that time, Little Yan’er was only five and a half years old. That woman had been a nanny in the Mo family for three years. Three years was neither long nor short. But for children, three years was enough to nurture their feelings.”
“When she thought that the opportunity was ripe, she coaxed Little Yan’er to go out with her. Then, she joined forces with the kidnappers outside and kidnapped him to a dark rented house. What did she do to Little Yan’er in that rented house? I… I…”
Mrs. Mo could not continue.
Shi Lichun immediately said, “Mrs. Mo, there’s no need to say anymore!”
Revealing someone’s scars and stabbing their wounds was not something a person of character would do.
However, Shi Lichun did not understand why they were talking about Mo Junyan’s kidnapping.
“Alright, I won’t say anymore!” Mrs. Mo nodded. Then, she looked at Gu Qingming, her eyes filled with gratitude. She continued, “After that time, he was allergic to women. My husband and I didn’t expect Yan’er to get married and have children. We didn’t expect that Mingming’s appearance would give us a pleasant surprise!”
Gu Qingming was speechless.
