Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 925: With You Always (70)
"I think with so many people spreading scandals about her, if she didn’t have even a tiny fault, who would have found something to say about her?" Nan Yuesheng was unhappy thinking that Xu Mohan actually went to ask the Netherworld King for the Blood Medicine Grass to give a congratulatory gift to Jun Xiangyi. She always felt that saving Xu Mohan twice was not a coincidence but intentional, yet Xu Mohan thought very differently from her. He believed Jun Xiangyi was not deliberate and it was purely coincidental.
Nan Yuesheng felt that women and men think differently; men always look at women too superficially and find it hard to delve deeper.
Anyway, she felt that Jun Xiangyi was an absolute schemer.
"Then, according to you, if a child is treated unfairly at school, like if a teacher moves a student to the corner of the last row, it’s surely because this child doesn’t study well. If the child studied well, why wouldn’t the teacher move him to a better seat in the front?" Gu Lili walked in from the door, speaking as she approached, "Is that right?"
"I didn’t say that. These two things are not the same."
"How are they not the same?" Gu Lili sat down next to Long Yubei, "To me, they are the same. Yuesheng, you are not any nobler than Xiangyi. Aren’t you just worried that Xu Mohan will leave you? If you’re really worried, you should reflect on why you no longer feel as secure with Xu Mohan as before. After all, when Xiangyi was his legal wife, you weren’t this anxious."
"I’m not anxious. I am very clear that Mohan would never like a woman like Jun Xiangyi," Nan Yuesheng said, unwilling to acknowledge her inner fear. "And you talk about me, but you, as the Divine Mother of the Heavenly World, aren’t you also vying for a man with the twins’ biological mother? Knowing they are happy with two children, why didn’t you break off your engagement with Yu Bei?"
"We were talking about you and Xiangyi. Don’t drag me into this."
"I guess you’ve run out of things to say?" Nan Yuesheng added, "You said it’s a matter between me and Jun Xiangyi, so why don’t you stay out of it?"
"Jun Xiangyi is my niece. I can’t just sit back and listen to you talk about her like that." Gu Lili had known Nan Yuesheng for a long time. She used to feel sorry for her, and she used to speak softly, unlike now, where every word seemed to have a thorn.
"Aren’t you no longer connected with the Heavenly King? How is she still your niece? Have you grown addicted to being an aunt?"
"We have no connection, but according to the lineage of the Jun Family, she still has to call me aunt. She has no problem with it; she willingly calls me that. Why, do you have a problem with her calling me aunt?"
"What’s got you so worked up? I was just talking."
The two of them went back and forth, while the other three men collectively pretended to be mute and said nothing.
"Yuesheng, you got to know Xu Mohan first; that’s your fortune and blessing. Really, if Xiangyi had met him first, maybe the Third Princess Consort of the Netherworld would be someone else right now. So cherish the fate and bond you have with Xu Mohan. Your life wasn’t easy before you knew him, so hang onto your happiness now. As for Xiangyi, it’s not up to outsiders to judge what kind of person she is. Those familiar with her will know, and I don’t want to explain more to those who don’t. After all, different circles need not forcefully blend."
After speaking, before Nan Yuesheng could respond, her figure vanished from sight.
