In the end, the bunch of them stayed till afternoon . If was only after Tian Jing Jing and Qi Shan completed a few practice papers were they satisfied and announced that they could head out for lunch . Xuan Mo and Chen Jun Jie followed them down for very readily as they listened to the two girls where to go for lunch .
The bored guy and girl stood behind . Chen Jun Jie stuck both his hands in his pockets, whereas Xuan Mo stood tall and straight as she stoned in the two other girlsâ direction, appearing as though she was gazing at them lovingly .
Chen Jun Jie suddenly felt that this setup was incredibly strange; he could imagine how itâd be like it Xuan Mo and the two girls went out shopping would be likeâ the two girls would select their clothes while Xuan Mo stood at the side, the two girls would try on their clothes while Xuan Mo stood at the side, the two girls would get her to help carry the bags that they had too many things on their hands, and sheâd do it without a word no matter how heavy the bags were . If she were to pay for them as well on top of her temperament, sheâd might as well be a guy from a rich family, and had bought these two girls off .
How did things become like this, exactly what kind of environment did she grow up in to nurture such a temperamentâŠ
âWeâve decided! Letâs go to Pizza Hut, letâs get a four-set meal, what dâyou guys think?â Tian Jing Jing decided and turned back to hug Chen Jun Jieâs hands .
Qi Shan nodded .
Xuan Mo had never had much opinions to begin with .
Though Chen Jun Jie preferred the street food and smaller eateries up in the north her, he didnât mind eating at Pizza Hut for this one time, so he agreed as well .
The restaurant wasnât very far away, and they could reach just by walking . The four of them walked slowly . Just as they reached Pizza Hut, Xuan Mo received her motherâs call .
âMo Mo, I know youâre out with your friends, but can you come back for a bit?â
The location stamp and related information was immediately transmitted over through her mental-net; her mother was in a restaurant in the city, the location was quite central . They were at a revolving restaurant at the top floor of that mall . Lu Yu Chen was there, his father was there too .
Sheâs kind of figured out what was happening . Though her mother was slightly derailing sometimes, she was still a normal mother . Sheâd been very busy lately, very busy and very stressed, but sheâs never mentioned a single thing to Xuan Mo, nor did Xuan Mo ask her if she was fine . But Xuan Mo knew, they had to settle this sooner or later .
Not long after Xuan Moâs mother brought her out to live on their own, the information chain that isnât supposed to exist disappeared .
Since sheâs already severed what mattered to her the most, Xuan Mo believed that her mother would not be soft-hearted when it came to matters related to them . Hence, as to what was going to play out as a result wasnât something that she was concerned about .
âWeâre at the revolving restaurant at the top of Jintai building, your⊠brother and them are here too, come over, weâll wait for you . â âą MY CLASSMATE IS TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS YEARS OLD, CHAPTER 89 is hosted at ZHAN LANNâą
When Xuan Mo arrived, the atmosphere was harmonious . Both her mother and Lu Yu Chenâs father did business, so they knew how to put forth their mannerly front when they were in front of clients, but as to whether that was the case when the client were around was another thing altogether . The two of them chatted about a variety of topics, about food, the news, government policies, gossips⊠Lu Yu Chenâs father had even chatted with Xuan Moâs mother about some of the brands that were currently in vogue .
Lu Yu Chen on the other hand felt incredibly awkward . His father was the one that did wrong, so Xuan Moâs mother had every right to walk straight out . Not only so, Lu Yu Chenâs discovered recently that she was very easy to talk to, but she had her assertive and firm side to her . Though she may not necessarily had loved his father, he could tell she wanted to give Xuan Mo a proper home, thatâs why she decided to get married once again .
Back then theyâd managed to get by together fine, and they had treated each other with sincere respect too afterwards . Just because theyâd divorced, that didnât mean that they would die because they couldnât live without each other .
Lu Yu Chen hadnât been in contact with Xuan Moâs mother these days, but from what he heard, that mistress had been handled and was in a miserable state . Not only did she have a miscarriage, she quitted school, and even caused her brother to transfer . Theyâd been getting through life fine, but after such a spectacle, their repute had gone down the drain, and they would be shamed by their family; one can imagine how bad their lives are .
Even after this, Xuan Moâs mother continued . After beating around the bush for three hours, she dropped the bombâ she wanted a divorceâ and this was done during a gathering among other business friends in the circle .
Lu Yu Chenâs father was so embarrassed and awkward, and that also blew a potential transaction that could otherwise bring in a huge revenue .
Hence Xuan Moâs changeâ from a shy person to someone with a heart as cold and solid as stoneâ was unexplainable, she inherited this from her mother!
Lu Yu Chenâs dad however believed that Xuan Moâs mother actually didnât want to divorce him .
She married him back then because of Xuan Mo .
Now that she intends to divorce him, she had to seek Xuan Moâs opinion .
If Xuan Mo still wanted him as her father, than Xuan Moâs mother would endure it, endure it until she could forgive Lu Yu Chenâs father . If Xuan Mo didnât need him, then her mother would divorce him without hesitation, and Lu Yu Chenâs father would have no way to retain their marriage .
Lu Yu Chen could tell his dad really didnât want the divorce . Simply put, he knew he was wrong, and saw how great Xuan Moâs mother was now, and he felt he deserved all this . Heâd rather Xuan Moâs mother vent all her anger at him and render him even more miserable so as to relieve her anger and decide not to divorce .
Perhaps Lu Yu Chenâs father didnât know this, but Lu Yu Chen was for sure that Xuan Mo didnât need a father . She didnât need a father, nor mother, nor brother, in fact, she probably didnât even need a family right now . Even if she had nothing, she could continue living .
Though this was a little exaggerated, Lu Yu Chen believed this .
Case in point, Xuan Mo right now â she was looking at her plate that was full of food that both her mother and Lu Yu Chenâs father had taken for her . After picking up her chopsticks, she flipped through her food and looked up in confusion: âYou guys go ahead to divorce if yâall want, why are you giving me so much food, I can take it on my own if I want to eat . â
Lu Yu Chenâs father paused, the drunken shrimp he was about to put in Xuan Moâs bowl froze in the air . His lips twitched: âCough, no matter what, we will take food for you, wonât it be more convenient for you?â
Xuan Mo was quiet for a bit before she tapped a fist on her palm in realisation: âAre you trying to kiss up to me?â
ââŠâ
âThereâs no use trying to kiss up to me . â Xuan Mo shook her head, completely disregarding how the rest of the people present would react . âIâm not the one getting the divorce . â
âYes thatâs true, but I want to know what your thoughts are, are you willing if mom and dad had a divorce? Do you think heâs still suitable to be your dad?â Xuan Moâs mother asked sincerely .
Xuan Moâs train of thought was narrow . Hence, in response to her motherâs question, she was confused: âSo if he isnât suitable, youâd divorce him?â
âYes . â Her mother swept Lu Yu Chenâs father a look; the latter appeared incredibly nervous, and had even elbowed Lu Yu Chen .
Lu Yu Chen was frustrated . He was just a teen, how would he know how to handle the situation between his parents . But now he knew he was his dadâs last hope, so he could only squeeze his brain dry trying to figure out how to get Xuan Mo to object . While thinking, he heard Xuan Mo ask a question .
âThen why did you marry him back then? Because you found him suitable?â
ââŠyes . â
âThen why isnât he suitable now?â
ââŠyou mean, you think heâs still fit to be your dad?â Her motherâs face twitched in disbelief, while the other two guys were shocked .
If youâre talking about suitability, then there wasnât a single man on this planet thatâs fit to be her dad . Xuan Mo was very pragmatic . However, she knew now that there were some things that she shouldnât say to Blue Planet beings, or sheâd been seen as too arrogant . Hence, in her attempt to need to lie less, she asked in return: âWhy isnât he fit then?â
He had an affair, betrayed your mother, impregnated her, and even tried to hide this from your mother⊠Xuan Moâs mother had an entire flood of reasons boiling in her head . When she thought about it though, she realised that Xuan Mo knew all of this . Despite so, she still felt that Lu Yu Chenâs father was fit to be a dad . Perhaps heâd been a great father to her?
Coming to such a realisation, Xuan Moâs mother hesitated .
