3229 Do You Have to Be So Ruthless?
“You already know so it doesn’t matter whether we told you or not,” Li Mochen said, not caring about Si Yiqi’s feelings at all.
Si Yiqi was struck dumb for a moment and felt aggrieved. “It’s different!”
“The result is the same,” Li Mochen said coldly.
“…”
Si Yiqi opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say. Li Mochen always talked to him like that.
!!Leng Xiaoyao gloated over Si Yiqi’s bad luck and said straightforwardly, “Mr. Si, do you know that you’re acting like an unfairly-treated boyfriend right now? It seems as if Brother Mochen is a bad man who abandoned you.”
“Ha-ha.”
Mu Yu and Meng Fan snorted with laughter. In fact, they had the same idea, but they didn’t dare to say it aloud.
Si Yiqi was angry and gritted through his teeth. “You two take advantage of me every time!”
Li Mochen was unhappy when Leng Xiaoyao said that he seemed like a bad man. He stared at Leng Xiaoyao and argued seriously. “I’m not a bad man.”
“Fine, you two clearly don’t know how to joke. It’s boring.” Leng Xiaoyao lost interest at once. She pretended to be displeased and walked away.
However, she wasn’t actually mad because it wasn’t a big deal.
Li Mochen, however, thought that she was mad. He immediately followed her and explained. “I know it’s a joke, but I don’t want to be misunderstood.”
“I know.” Leng Xiaoyao answered, but her flat tone made Li Mochen think that she was still unhappy.
“Are you mad?” Li Mochen asked with a frown, feeling anxious.
What if Leng Xiaoyao was really mad? What should he do?
When did he begin to care about Leng Xiaoyao’s feelings? Even Li Mochen didn’t notice it himself.
“Not at all! Why should I be mad?” Leng Xiaoyao replied, though still in a flat tone.
“I can tell you’re mad.” Li Mochen compressed his lips and looked confident.
“Ha-ha!” Leng Xiaoyao couldn’t help but laugh when she saw that expression on Li Mochen’s face. “Do you think I easily get mad?”
When Leng Xiaoyao laughed, Li Mochen was relieved. “Of course not.”
Si Yiqi and the others who followed them were shocked. To their surprise, Li Mochen cared so much about Leng Xiaoyao’s mood. It was impossible that Li Mochen didn’t have interest in Leng Xiaoyao.
Li Mochen didn’t realize that he had reacted strangely until now. After it was mentioned he was embarra.s.sed, but he said nothing. He only gave Si Yiqi a cold glance.
Si Yiqi was scared at once and changed the topic. “Oh, I just remembered something. Mochen, I have a few friends who are professional racers. They really admire you and want to meet you. What do you think? If you’re willing to see them, we can go to meet them. If not, you can go to another lounge. I’ll go to see you later.”
“Let’s go to see them,” Li Mochen said. Since they were Si Yiqi’s friends and Si Yiqi asked him to do that, he wouldn’t disappoint him.
After all, it wasn’t difficult.
Although Li Mochen was always aloof and cold, he wasn’t arrogant and was willing to make friends. Otherwise, he couldn’t have so many friends.
He seemed hard to get along with on the surface, but he was actually quite reliable.
He never spared his effort to help his friends when they encountered trouble.
Li Mochen got shares of so many companies because they had received help from Li Mochen or needed his help to some extent.
Li Mochen has his own company, so he normally wouldn’t buy shares of other companies.
Before long, they went to the lounge that Si Yiqi’s friends were staying in.
Once Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen came, the three people inside stood up to welcome them. They kindly exchanged greetings.
Li Mochen looked a little cold, but remained polite.
Two of the three people were professional racers with some fame. They were skilled too and had won many prizes. However, both of them failed the challenge.
They came for the challenge, not only to win the SVIP card, as Si Yiqi’s good friends they already had one. They simply accepted the challenge because they wanted to try.
The challenge was available not only in the Yar Circuit of City Chang. They could try in the Yar Circuit in different cities too. They only came here because Si Yiqi was here. They hadn’t seen each other in a long time, so they wanted to see him.
“You’re so good at racing. It’s a shame that you’re not in the industry. I think you’re even better than the professionals,” one man said jokingly.
“Right, if you join the industry, I’m afraid Country Bili wouldn’t win the champions.h.i.+p in international games again.”
“I agree!”
Talking about that, they felt it was a shame.
…
Shortly after Leng Xiaoyao left, w.a.n.g Yiming’s wife came to see him. Then w.a.n.g Yiming told his wife that he wasn’t his mother’s biological son.
Although w.a.n.g Yiming felt relieved after hearing that, he was still very sad. After all, Old Mrs. w.a.n.g had been his mother for over thirty years.
w.a.n.g Yiming’s wife was surprised, but also felt more relaxed.
She had a bad relations.h.i.+p with Old Mrs. w.a.n.g. However, Old Mrs. w.a.n.g was w.a.n.g Yiming’s mother, so she had to tolerate her. If Old Mrs. w.a.n.g wasn’t w.a.n.g Yiming’s biological mother, she wouldn’t need to put up with her in the future.
Even though w.a.n.g Yiming learned that Old Mrs. w.a.n.g wasn’t his biological mother, he would still give her a monthly allowance. w.a.n.g Yiming’s wife agreed with that, but they wouldn’t support Old Mrs w.a.n.g like before.
…
w.a.n.g Xiangyang was upset after failing to talk with w.a.n.g Yiming. When he was home, he urged Old Mrs. w.a.n.g to call w.a.n.g Yiming again. If w.a.n.g Yiming didn’t lend them money, they would have to sell the house and they were reluctant to do that.
When Old Mrs. w.a.n.g called w.a.n.g Yiming again, he still answered it.
“Yiming, do you have to be so ruthless?” Old Mrs. w.a.n.g criticized.
w.a.n.g Yiming took a deep breath. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “I’m not ruthless, but you are. I already know that you’re not my biological mother, and that is why you never hesitate to exploit me.”
