Chapter 184: Go Home Early, There’s a Surprise (3)
Gotta say, An Mingyuan really nailed it. With his honest looks, he has a natural advantage, making his act of innocence and confusion completely convincing.
So sometimes, we really need to be wary of people who look honest. One slip and their harmless appearance can trick us.
"I’m just speaking from experience. My husband has been acting weird lately, so I’m particularly sensitive and disdainful towards the topic of mistresses. So, you need to treat Ruanruan well, or else..." Suddenly shifting the topic, Li Bao’er said, "An Mingyuan, have you heard about Li Jia’s car accident? It’s such a relief! But the principal got caught up in it too and ended up in the hospital. These days, mistresses rarely come to a good end. Even if they do, it’s an affront to nature, probably bringing harm to the next generation! So one must strive to be a good person. Being a mistress is like being a thief."
"..."
After Li Bao’er’s lengthy speech, An Mingyuan felt uncomfortable but couldn’t find the right words to change the topic, so he chose to remain silent. Mo Tingting, on the other hand, seemed angry and unwilling to endure anymore, yet she still maintained her smile and said, "Sometimes when there’s a problem in a relationship, it’s not just about blaming others. Self-reflection is needed. Often, the problem lies within oneself."
"Miss Mo, you certainly have high emotional intelligence! I wonder if you’re just talking or actually practice self-reflection and self-encouragement regularly. If so, you must be a person of high virtue, no wonder you can forgive a mistress and even beyond. You’re really broad-minded."
Mo Tingting lowered her head, listening to Li Bao’er’s words, her expression unchanged, and she smiled as she changed the subject, "I just remembered I need to make an important call home. You guys continue."
After Mo Tingting left, An Mingyuan continued cutting the meat as if everything was normal. Mi Jing and the others helped out on the side. Once everything was ready, they moved from the kitchen to the living room, and then An Mingyuan called Mo Tingting from her room.
As they ate and drank, Mi Jing, Lulu, and Li Bao’er enjoyed their meal, but Mo Tingting ate very politely, barely picking any dishes. Compared to earlier, she was unusually quiet. An Mingyuan didn’t avoid her, constantly inviting her to not be shy and adding food to her bowl.
