Guide to tame my villainous husbands-Chapter 1402: Please let my son go (2)

Though what Mo Qiang wanted to do was curse out loud, she suppressed that particular urge and said to the two of them, "I am willing to listen to what you have to say. So please calm down."

She wanted the two elderly to quieten down. Though Mo Qiang was not concerned about her reputation, she still didn't want others to question her. However, maybe it was her kind tone or maybe it was her gentle expression but the Ling couple thought that it was easy to bully her.

Thus, Mother Ling immediately raised her head and looked at Mo Qiang with a teary gaze; even though her eyes were flickering with calculations, she still spoke to Mo Qiang in an aggrieved voice, "Miss Mo, I know that I am being selfish by asking you to let go of my son, but I swear I don't mean any harm by these words. I really care for him and... and I can only beg you."

"We have no money and I know that my son has to work really hard to raise our family, and I really cannot thank him enough for the things that he has done for us, which is why I want him to get married and live a normal life where he doesn't have to worry about anything. If he works for you for thirty years, how will he get married?"

As she spoke, she stretched her hand in front of Mo Qiang as if she was begging her. Her actions evoked sympathy from the onlookers, as they had no idea what kind of person Mother Ling and her husband were. They thought that the two of them were sincere towards Ling Che and truly wanted to take care of him.

They turned to look at Mo Qiang and one by one spoke up for the Ling parents.

"Miss Mo, I think you should let Mister Ling go. After all, these two elderly people need him more than you."

"They don't even want much. They only want to see their son getting married and living a good life. I know that's a bit unfair to ask you to cancel the contract but you don't lack that kind of money, Miss Mo."

"Miss Mo, I believe you should listen to the two of them. I know that it's a bit unjust but they are also very pitiful."

When Mother Ling heard the words of the crowd of onlookers, she became smug and haughty as if she had been injected with chicken blood. But when she turned to look at Mo Qiang, her expression once again shifted to a pitiful one. She said to Mo Qiang, "Miss Mo, I know that I am being selfish but I have no other choice. This is what I owe my son. So, please, I beg you to let him go."

Mother Ling was sure that she would be able to pressure Mo Qiang. No, she had to make this woman let go of Ling Che willingly without suing their family. She had already used all the money that Xu Tingfang had given to her and now she didn't even have a penny left in her hands.

Xu Tingfang was pressuring her to give back the money or hand her Ling Che. Asking her to give back the money was equivalent to asking her to cut off her flesh and hand it over. She couldn't do it! Since it was impossible for Mother Ling to hand the money over, Ling Che was the only one that could be handed over.

But since she refused to pay Xu Tingfang back, it was even more impossible for her to pay the fee for the contract cancellation. She needed to force Mo Qiang to give up on Ling Che on her own.

Mo Qiang pursed her lips. Truthfully speaking, she found Mother Ling's actions a bit disgusting. Though the woman said a lot of flowery words, she knew that every single word of Mother Ling was nothing but a lie. She didn't care about Ling Che at all; the reason she was speaking so many lies was because she wanted to suck the last bit of worth that Ling Che had in her eyes.

Unfortunately, Ling Che and Yin Fu had not finished collecting evidence of Mother Ling and her family's exploitation of Ling Che. Thus, even if Mo Qiang wanted to say something, she couldn't say it.

She sucked in a breath and then said to Mother Ling, "Madam Ling, it's not that I do not wish to let Mister Ling go but you have to at least wait for me to look for a new chef and have him trained under Mister Ling. You cannot ask me to stop my business due to your family business, can you?"

"What do you mean by that you are going to get someone else trained?" Mother Ling had lived a life where she had become the central figure of many meetings. This was all due to Ling Che, who was one of the few S-class chefs in the imperial star. Now Mo Qiang was telling her that there was another chef being trained? How could that be done?

"Isn't that only usual?" Mo Qiang asked with a quirk of her brow. She blinked her eyes and said to the two elderly, "I am not against letting Mister Ling go but he had to at least teach his skills to someone else before he can step out."

"You can't do that!" Mother Ling was stunned when she heard Mo Qiang say that she was going to make Ling Che teach his skills to others; her eyes popped out of their sockets. But as soon as she finished speaking, she realised that her reaction was not correct and she said to Mo Qiang, "I mean to say that— those skills are something that my son learnt on his own. How can you ask him to divulge such a thing to others?"

If there was another Ling Che, then who would care about her son? Who would respect her?
