Mo Shu halted in his steps and stood still.
Seeing this, Ji Nan turned around and looked at Qin Yuan with a stern face, "Ma’am, the Princess has had a busy day and is very tired."
However, Qin Yuan looked at Mo Shu and said, "She told me a few things."
Ji Nan looked even more displeased but before he could speak, he heard Mo Shu say, "Come to my study."
Ji Nan gave Qin Yuan a reproachful look and quickly followed Mo Shu.
Once in the study, Ji Nan asked softly, "Shall I have someone prepare some water for you first?"
Ji Nan then withdrew.
Qin Yuan sat opposite Mo Shu and said, "You really resemble your mom, both in looks and temperament."
Mo Shu was really tired that day, and somewhat impatiently responded to the nonsense, "My mom wouldn’t have said such things before she died, would she?"
"You’re also impatient," Qin Yuan suddenly smiled again, "But your temper is much better than hers. When she came to find me that day, she had the bodyguards pin me to the ground."
Mo Shu’s eyelids twitched.
Actually, his memory of Sha Ling was already very blurry.
The only thing he remembered was that she often took him to play, taught him flower arranging, taught him painting, and was extremely gentle with him.
Qin Yuan continued, "She took me to an underground warehouse and aborted my child."
Mo Shu leaned back on the sofa, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his clear eyes fell on her, scrutinizing, "Were you pregnant at that time?"
Her gaze was very aggressive, Qin Yuan felt as though she was facing a second Sha Ling, nodded heavily, her voice trembling a bit, "She told me she could arrange for me to marry Mo Jiantao, but I could never, ever give birth to a child with the Mo surname."
Qin Yuan’s tears fell, "She told me, before she came to find me, she had already poisoned Mo Jiantao several times. The poison wouldn’t threaten his life, but it would leave him infertile forever."
Mo Shu was somewhat shocked, yet not surprised that Sha Ling could do such a thing.
With the vast inheritance of the Mo Family, and Mo Jiantao’s capabilities not sufficient to inherit it, such immense wealth could only fall to his children.
If Qin Yuan’s child had been born successfully, and if it had been a boy, then the rightful heir of the family business wouldn’t be her.
Women are inherently weak, but become strong as mothers.
Wanting to leave everything to her own daughter, Sha Ling’s method was indeed overly cruel and extreme, but from her perspective, it was understandable.
Mo Shu’s heart ached faintly.
So back then, Sha Ling had already schemed to commit suicide, not acting impulsively as Mo Jiantao thought, trying to force him to come home.
Perhaps that was also Mom’s last hope for Mo Jiantao, wondering if he would...
Seeing Mo Shu’s sorrowful eyes, Qin Yuan continued chokingly, "This matter, Sha Ling asked me to tell your father, she wanted him to hate her, to grind his teeth whenever he mentioned her, to always remember her. But I didn’t, I didn’t tell him a word. He didn’t even know that my miscarriage wasn’t natural, but was caused by your mom with a baseball bat, and he didn’t know that his subsequent infertility wasn’t due to his indulgence, but because his first wife had been poisoning him!"
Mo Shu looked up, his gaze fixed on her tear-stained face. Official source is NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Crying, Qin Yuan said, "At that time, you were only five years old. If I had told him, he would surely have taken his anger out on you, and you wouldn’t have had good days, so I didn’t say a word."
