Chapter 1479 - He Is My Son (52) (1/2)

Si Jingyu frowned and looked at Li Shu, who was obviously in low spirits. She said, “Li Shu, over a son, is it worth it?”

She placed both her hands on the table and looked at Li Shu with much disappointment. Among all their old friends, Li Shu had the most mettle and the best literary reputation. Her energy and enthusiasm also attracted the most suitors. But now, it was as though the woman was living half a life.

What had become of Li Shu today?

Although the woman had come prepared to see her, the weariness beneath her dolled-up exterior was evident.

Si Jingyu clenched her fists tightly, on one hand furious over Mo Zhi, on the other hand feeling sorrowful for Li Shu.

She looked at Li Shu and said sincerely and earnestly, “You should have left him when he had an affair at that time. But you stayed for the child and just went on with life as it was. Since that was the case, why didn’t you just focus on educating Mo Zhi?”

Hearing these words from Si Jingyu, Li Shu had a sudden realization.

Suddenly, she felt glad that she had neglected Mo Zhi’s home education all these years. If it had been otherwise, and should Mo Zhi had been a smarter person and had control of the Mo family, then how could her own son fight him now?

At this thought, Li Shu became a little distracted. She looked at Si Jingyu and pursed her lips after a moment. Then she said, “Jingyu, what if I told you that my life has been a joke all these years? What would you think?”

Si Jingyu was slightly taken aback and suddenly felt her heart soften.

She looked at how down her old friend seemed and couldn’t find it within herself to make any harsher remarks.

Sighing, she said, “Li Shu, you are only fifty years old. You can start all over again. You really don’t have to be so pessimistic.”

Li Shu shook her head and started, “You have no idea.”

She looked ahead steadily and continued, “I don’t wish to interfere with Mo Zhi’s affairs any longer. If you wish to seek revenge with him, please go ahead. After all, where this matter is concerned, he’s gone overboard.”
