Chapter 248: The con man strikes again.
For a couple that loved risky sex, doing it in a flying car and the presence of their child that was distracted by technology was a thrill. Mo Liang’s strategy worked like a charm. By the time, the car reached the parking outside Tang Yue’s building, they had reconciled.
As they righted their clothes, Mo Liang said to her, "Honey, you know that everything I do is for you and Hao. It is for our family to live wealthy, respectful lives. The Empress promised to make me a noble as long as I keep Mei Mei and the Emperor apart. The only way to do that is for me to tie her down.
As long as she is legally my wife, she cannot be involved with the Emperor. If I say any nice thing about her, it is because I am trying to convince myself of this so that I can be believable whenever I meet her."
"A noble!" Tang Yue gasped. "The Empress is going to make you a noble!"
Mo Liang nodded and he smiled smugly. "Not just any noble but a duke, marquis or an earl. I can also take a viscount title but I want top three. Only then can I be equal in status to the Jun’s. Don’t you want to be the wife of noble?"
Tang Yue clapped her hands and squealed. "Of course I would. Honey...can this really happen?" She was already picturing herself shopping and eating in the places nobles loved.
People would throw flowers at her feet and address her as Lady Tang Yue or Her grace, Tang Yue. Maybe she would even be the Empress’s new best friend. That was much more prestigious than being Jun Meilin’s friend. Her son would also be noble and he would marry a noble woman.
Mo Liang grasped her hands and said, "That is why I need you to cooperate with me. Just as you cooperated back then when I went after Jun Meilin, do the same now."
Tang Yue’s job back then had been to whisper nice things to Mei Mei about Mo Hao, exaggerate his heroism, kindness, intelligence and looks. She had to make it seem as if all the girls in school were in love with him.
80% of the love letters that Mo Liang received were written by her and made it appear like other girls were writing them. She even used her money to send him gifts which she would deliver in Mei Mei’s presence to manipulate her into being jealous.
