Chapter 331: He Was Well Aware of This Fact
The hotpot meal did not last long, and the earlier incident was soon forgotten.
Yu Lingfeng, who was sitting with Bo Jinyan, found Mo Jiangye pleasing for once.
“Let’s go,” his friend whispered to him.
After all, they could no longer enjoy their hotpot.
He took another look at Ye Erruo, only to receive a frosty glare from her husband. After flashing a contemptuous smirk at him in return, he turned to leave.
As the two of them were leaving, Bo Jinyan dropped something to the ground. The woman happened to notice this when she turned around to retrieve her scarf in preparation for leaving with her husband.
She wanted to call out to the man at first, but they were a long distance apart and, after taking into consideration various reasons, she could not bring herself to do so. She figured that, if the necklace was truly important to him, he would come back to the shop in search of it.
“Let’s go.” Mo Jiangye wrapped his wife up tightly in layers again.
“Are you two leaving already?”
“My hubby has something to do later, so we can’t stay here too long. You guys can continue your meal.”
“...”
“Just a second, hubby.”
The woman crouched down to pick up the item that Bo Jinyan had dropped on the floor earlier.
The moment she touched the item, however, she entered a trance. An image of a sea of flowers flashed across her mind, reminding her of the flowers that her servant had been receiving on her behalf. Alas, it was gone so fast that she failed to get anything from it.
She took a glance at the item in her hand, which was a colorful necklace that could not be any more ordinary with a strange pattern formed by flower petals.
“What’s wrong?” Her husband turned his head back and gave her a quizzical look.
“What’s this? Who gave it to you?”
“I picked it up from the floor.”
“Do you like this necklace? Just keep it then,” he told her.
Feeling dumbfounded, she replied, “This belongs to someone.”
“I’ll buy it from its owner.”
“Nah. Just leave it with the cashier. The owner might come back searching for it.”
Mo Jiangye reached out to take the necklace from her. The material of each petal felt exactly the same as the one she had lost before.
“Are you sure you don’t want it?”
“Nope.”
He then took her hand to leave the hotpot shop. As they made their way out, he dropped the necklace on the cashier counter and Ye Erruo instinctively turned her head back to take another look at it.
“Where are you taking me?”
The man merely spat out, “Somewhere.”
Of course, she knew he was taking her somewhere, but where exactly was this place?
They saw a man standing right in front of them as soon as they exited the hotpot shop.
“Old Master Lin?”
Mo Jiangye acted as though he had never seen him and just led his wife straight past him.
“Stop right there, Xiao Ye!” the elderly man cried out to his grandson. The lack of response prompted him to yell, “Ye Erruo!”
The younger chap suddenly stopped in his tracks and frowned in displeasure.
“Ye Erruo! I want a confirmation from you today. Are you making use of Xiao Ye?”
“No.” Ye Erruo looked over her shoulder to glance at Old Master Lin. It’s freezing outside today, as it’s snowing quite heavily, yet he still tried to find a way to meet his grandson just like every day. It must be tough on him.
“Very well! Xiao Ye, I’ve done my part to warn you. Let me just ask you one last time: Do you intend to never return to the Lin residence and disown your grandfather?”
In response, Mo Jiangye snidely remarked, “Are you even my grandfather? From the day you allowed my woman to get hurt and refused to acknowledge her, you have no longer been eligible to be part of my family. You and I have nothing to do with each other.”
All along, the old man had only seen in him nothing but his abilities. Because of his mother, the elderly man had preferred Lin Jingxuan. It was not until he had discovered that that grandson of his had grown up to become a useless bum that he had poured his attention on him instead.
He was well aware of this fact!
