My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 826 - : 826, you are not the princess of the Mo Family.
Chapter 826: 826, you are not the princess of the Mo Family.
Mo Weiyi had left 10 minutes earlier when Dr. Yu, carrying his medical kit, emerged from the bathroom.
“Mr. Xiao is fine now.”
Zhong Kai quickly thanked the doctor, and once he had left, he picked up some fresh clothes and came to the bathroom door.
The door was tightly shut, with the faint sound of running water still audible.
Is he taking another bath?
Does Mr. Xiao have a penchant for cleanliness?
...
He raised his hand and knocked, “knock, knock, knock.”
The sound of water inside stopped.
Zhong Kai hurriedly said, “Mr. Xiao, here are your clothes.”
There was no response.
Zhong Kai furrowed his brows and was just about to knock again when the door suddenly opened.
Xiao Yebai was soaking wet, his dark eyes staring over.
Zhong Kai dared not look too much, and hastily handed over the fresh clothes.
The man took them and quickly closed the door.
…
Xiao Yebai came out again 10 minutes later.
He had changed into a clean white shirt and black pants, and his hair had been wiped down, still dark and damp, framing his pale face with an eternally indifferent look in his eyes, making him strikingly handsome and breathtaking.
Zhong Kai almost couldn’t reconcile him with the dangerously sexy man who had been drugged not long before.
No wonder that Miss Zhou would dare to drug him to have him…
Mister Xiao’s looks, even in the entertainment industry, would be among the top, truly a dangerous beauty!
“Where is she?” Xiao Yebai asked.
Zhong Kai snapped back to reality, “Ah?”
Xiao Yebai looked at him.
“Oh.” Zhong Kai hurriedly said, “The princess said she was a bit tired, so she went back to nap.”
Xiao Yebai did not speak, his expression growing even colder.
Zhong Kai quickly added, “But Miss Zhou has already…”
“Let’s go,” Xiao Yebai interrupted.
Zhong Kai: “… Ah?”
Watching Xiao Yebai start to leave, he had no choice but to follow.

Meanwhile, in the car.
Mo Weiyi tapped his phone screen a couple of times, and Rong An’s phone immediately rang.
He was just about to check…
“It’s a video I sent,” Mo Weiyi said.
Rong An asked, “What video?”
“The video of Zhou Yunong just now.”
Rong An: “…”
“Keep it on your phone, help me save a few more copies.”
“… Okay.”
Mo Weiyi looked up at him, barely suppressing a laugh, “What’s with that tone? What, are you embarrassed now?”
“…” Rong An did not respond.
“You stripped the clothes; you’ve already seen what there was to see; being embarrassed now is a bit late, isn’t it?”
Rong An again: “……”
At that moment, he thought it best to keep quiet, otherwise Mo Weiyi would only get more excessive.
Indeed, seeing that Rong An did not reply, Mo Weiyi lost interest and soon put down his phone, closing his eyes to rest.
…
Forty minutes later, at Lishui Bay Villa.
It was around three to four in the afternoon, the sun setting, making people feel drowsy.
Mo Weiyi squinted his cat-like eyes and ambled inside.
Rong An followed behind, carrying numerous bags.
At the villa’s entrance, Aunt Zhou greeted them, “Princess, Ms. Xu has come.”
Mo Weiyi sat on a chair in the foyer, slightly not catching on, “You said who?”
“Ms. Xu, you know, your little…”
With a “snap”,
Mo Weiyi threw the flats he had just taken off onto the floor, visibly upset, “Who allowed you to let her in?”
Aunt Zhou was stunned, “But she’s your aunt, I thought…”
“She is not my aunt.” Mo Weiyi put on his slippers, “Tell her to leave, I don’t want to see that shameless woman.”
No sooner had he spoken,
“Yiyi, you’re back,” Xu Jing’s ingratiating voice rang out.
Mo Weiyi looked up at her.
Dealing with that little wretch Zhou Yunong had already wasted more than an hour of her time, and now here was another vile person!
It seemed she wouldn’t be getting her nap now!
…
In the cozy, refined living room, Mo Weiyi sat on the couch, observing Xu Jing across from him.
She was dressed in a very simple shirt and trousers, devoid of any styling or makeup, looking utterly unwell. At a glance, Mo Weiyi almost didn’t recognize her.
Was this the same Xu Jing who was once full of artistic flair and excelled in tea arts?
The woman before him was down and out, unkempt, resembling any ordinary middle-aged woman one might see on the streets…
Aunt Zhou brought over a glass of orange juice and then left.
Xu Jing’s eyes fell on that glass of juice, her fingers tightened.
But Mo Weiyi did not drink.
Because she simply wasn’t in the mood.
Leaning back on the sofa, Mo Weiyi lifted her chin arrogantly and spoke, “Didn’t you say you were going to Italy? Sneaking over here, does grandma know you’re deceiving her?”
“No, I didn’t deceive her,” Xu Jing explained hurriedly. “I just delayed the flight ticket time because I wanted to talk to you for a bit, Yiyi…”
“Don’t address me so intimately,” Mo Weiyi interrupted her coldly. “If you have something to say, say it quickly. Once you’re done, get lost—I feel disgusted just looking at you.”
“…” Xu Jing bit her lip and reluctantly said, “I’m really worried about Mom.”
“What’s wrong with Grandma?” Mo Weiyi asked, her expression unchanged.
“I always thought Mom was just in her sixties and that she would be in good health from working in the countryside all these years. But living with her recently, I’ve realized her health isn’t good. She often gets up at night and tends to forget things…”
Xu Jing spoke while carefully observing Mo Weiyi’s face.
When she noticed Mo Weiyi beginning to frown, a flash of triumph crossed Xu Jing’s eyes, but her voice remained weak and gentle, “I really can’t bear the thought of leaving her alone in the countryside. So, after I head to Italy, could you please check on her from time to time, or maybe find someone to look after her? That place is so remote that if anything happens, it might not even be noticed.”
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Mo Weiyi narrowed her beautiful cat-like eyes. “I’ve never seen you care so much before—found your conscience?”
“I’ve just realized it. Every time I think about leaving, and how in Nancheng, Mom will only have you, her granddaughter, to look after her, Yunyao and I might not be able to return for a long time…”
“It’s not might,” Mo Weiyi cut her off, “It’s never.”
Xu Jing: “…”
“I hope you and your despicable daughter stay in Italy for life, and never come back!”
Even though she was prepared for the mockery, Xu Jing still couldn’t help but grimace upon hearing those words, “You…”
“If I were you, I would have found a hole to crawl into after doing something so shameful and never come out to embarrass myself further.” Having said that, Mo Weiyi had exhausted all her patience.
She stood up and headed toward the stairs.
“Wait Yiyi, don’t go!” Xu Jing called out.
Mo Weiyi stopped in her tracks, turned around, and looked at her coldly, “Do you want me to call the security to throw you out?”
“…” Xu Jing’s expression changed.
She remembered the terrifying experience from that night in the hospital…
Her expression became much more fearful.
“My bodyguard doesn’t just douse cold water; he also strips women of their clothes, and can beat a woman enough to leave her missing limbs. If you don’t believe me, you’re welcome to try,” Mo Weiyi said.
After speaking, Mo Weiyi turned around, “Aunt Zhou, see the guest out.”
Aunt Zhou hurried over, “Ms. Xu, please.”
Xu Jing watched as Mo Weiyi slowly climbed the stairs and then disappeared…
She lowered her head and picked up her bag.
She had just taken a step when she suddenly said, “Aunt Zhou, may I use the restroom?”
Aunt Zhou looked troubled, “Ms. Xu, don’t make this difficult for me. Just letting you in has already upset the princess…”
“Everyone has emergencies, can’t you make an exception?” Xu Jing pleaded in a placating tone, “Besides, I was never stingy with you before, right? Surely you can’t be that heartless?”
Aunt Zhou: “…”
Although she didn’t know exactly what went on between the princess and this aunt, as servants do talk among themselves, she had some idea.
As a relative of the Mo Family, Xu Jing was very tactful. Every time she visited the old mansion, she brought small gifts for the servants, and when she lived there, she treated them politely, never being commanding or imposing.
“Aunt Zhou, please, just five minutes… Is five minutes okay?”
“Then hurry,” Aunt Zhou finally relented, “I’ll wait here for you.”
“Okay, thank you, Aunt Zhou,” Xu Jing said, visibly relieved, and quickly turned towards the restroom.
Aunt Zhou stood there, waiting while also watching upstairs.
It was just a few minutes. The princess had returned to her bedroom, so it probably wouldn’t matter if she couldn’t see…
The phone in the living room suddenly rang. Aunt Zhou glanced at the bathroom door and hurried over to answer the phone, “Hello, who are you looking for?”
“…”
There was no response on the other end of the line.
“Hello? Speak…”
Xu Jing tiptoed out of the bathroom and quickly went upstairs.
**
Second floor, master bedroom.
Mo Weiyi lay on the soft, large bed, her eyes closed, trying to summon sleepiness.
Although her body was tired, her mind remained unusually clear, perhaps because it was past her usual nap time.
Her hands gently stroked her abdomen.
The doctor had said that by July, once the embryo was fully developed, her stomach would gradually start to enlarge.
Being of petite build and having a constitution that never seemed to gain weight, her belly would be particularly noticeable then.
Mo Weiyi’s anxiety grew heavier with time.
Even if Xiao Yebai hadn’t noticed yet, as soon as her belly grew prominent, he would quickly realize that she hadn’t aborted the child.
Such things cannot be concealed for long. In a few days, she must return to the old house to discuss divorce with Grandfather…
A sudden, intense feeling of being watched struck her.
Mo Weiyi abruptly opened her eyes.
When she saw Xu Jing suddenly appear in front of the bed, she felt a jolt in her heart and hurriedly sat up, “How did you get up here?”
Xu Jing looked at her with a smile, “Weiyi, I just remembered something.”
This smile was inexplicably eerie!
The curtains were drawn in the bedroom, making it somewhat dark.
The bedroom contained only the two of them, which was rather unnerving…
Mo Weiyi threw the blanket aside and got out of bed to put on her shoes, “Aunt Zhou! Aunt Zhou…”
“Don’t call out!”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
A flash of white light, and her body stiffened momentarily.
Xu Jing revealed a fruit knife from nowhere, “Don’t call for help, or the knife might accidentally cut you.”
Mo Weiyi asked, “What do you want to do?”
Seeing her clearly nervous and frightened appearance, Xu Jing sinisterly smiled.
She advanced a step, pleased to see Mo Weiyi instinctively step back.
Thus, she stopped advancing and just stared at her delicate, pretty face, “How come I never noticed before? Strange, I never doubted you.”
“I always found it strange why you were so inept. You couldn’t play the violin, nor the piano, and you were so lazy, always dismissing teachers after a few days of lessons.”
“How can you compare to Yunyao? Her musical talent is great, the kind of woman our Xu family should have!”
“And my sister, she was a high achiever in school from childhood and got accepted to Berklee College of Music at sixteen, but what about you?”
Xu Jing, the more she spoke, the more she wanted to laugh, “You are simply a block of unyielding wood! You can’t learn any musical instrument and even your academic performance is poor, despite my sister bringing countless renowned tutors to teach you, you were so disappointing…”
Mo Weiyi felt that Xu Jing seemed somewhat mentally unstable.
It was inexplicable, holding a knife and telling her these relics of ancient history!
Yes.
She admitted that she indeed lacked musical talent.
But more so, it was because Xu Xian’s teaching methods were too strict and harsh, always forcing her to learn, to practice, and the slightest mistake would lead to various accusations, criticism, and even disdain from her.
Children are very sensitive, and she could clearly feel Xu Xian’s frustration and disappointment with her.
So, the more it happened, the more rebellious she became, and she simply didn’t want to learn.
There were so many fun things in the world, why should she be scolded while doing something that made her unhappy?
Moreover, her grandfather doted on her so much that as soon as she acted coquettishly, he would scold Xu Xian, send away the music teacher, and she wouldn’t have to practice anymore…
Given that, why not?
“Also, you don’t look like my sister at all.” Xu Jing rambled on, “You don’t look like your brother-in-law either. I always thought it might be because your genes are too good, but now I realize I was just too naive, really too naive…”
“What exactly are you babbling about?” Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but interrupt her.
Xu Jing came to her senses.
The bewildered look on her face slowly disappeared, and then she stepped forward, raising the sharp fruit knife in her hand, “Give me your hand.”
“…” Mo Weiyi’s face paled, “You’re crazy!”
“Don’t worry, I just need a little blood,” Xu Jing said, stepping forward again, “Just be good and don’t resist, a small cut will do.”
Mo Weiyi certainly didn’t comply, but looking at the fruit knife in Xu Jing’s hand, she didn’t dare to act rashly.
She was pregnant now, and Xu Jing seemed mentally unstable; if anything happened during a struggle…
When her wrist was grasped by Xu Jing, she softened her voice, “Auntie, what exactly are you trying to do?”
The long-lost address, soft and mushy like a little girl trying to ingratiate herself, made Xu Jing’s gaze waver.
But quickly, she regained her cold and ruthless demeanor, “Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you for now. I just want to take a little blood for testing, so don’t resist, otherwise if it affects the fetus, don’t blame me.”
After speaking, she raised the fruit knife and slashed fiercely toward that slender, fair arm…
Mo Weiyi closed her eyes and turned her face away.
Bracing herself for the pain to come, suddenly the grip on her wrist loosened…
Immediately afterward.
A “clang” sound rang out, followed by Xu Jing’s screams.
She opened her eyes to see Xiao Yebai, who had appeared in the bedroom at some unknown time.
Like a god descending from the heavens, stunningly handsome, he kicked the fruit knife on the floor away, swift and neat.
His deep black eyes looked at her, and his thin lips parted, “Rong An, take her to the police station.”
“You dare!” Xu Jing screamed as she fell to the floor.
Rong An quickly approached, grabbed her, and started dragging her out…
“Let go of me! I told you to let go of me!”

Xu Jing was dragged out on the floor, desperately clinging to the doorknob, shouting, “You can’t take me to the police station! The old master is coming soon, he’s coming right away!”
Xiao Yebai narrowed his eyes.
Mo Weiyi, still somewhat in shock, couldn’t help but ask upon hearing this, “Why are you calling my grandfather over?”
“Because I’ve discovered an enormous secret!” Xu Jing said excitedly, “I’ve already sent him a message; he’ll be here soon. If you don’t believe me, call him and ask.”
Mo Weiyi immediately went to pick up her phone and dialed the number.
The call was quickly answered, and Shi Kang’s voice came through, “Princess.”
“Shi Kang, where’s my grandfather?”
Shi Kang said, “We’ve already arrived.”
“…” Mo Weiyi was stunned.
“Princess, I really had no choice, the old master insisted on coming, but his health…”
Faintly, the voice of Old Master Mo could be heard through the phone.
Then Shi Kang immediately added, “Princess, you’d better come down and wait.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
She put down the phone, doubtful yet puzzled, “What exactly are you calling my grandfather for? Don’t you know his health hasn’t recovered yet?”
Xu Jing just smiled, “I only sent him a photo, and he couldn’t wait to come over, hahaha…”
“Rong An.” Mo Weiyi, hearing that laughter, was creeped out, “Take her away first.”
“Okay.”
After those two left, Mo Weiyi then turned to the man beside her.
“Why didn’t you go to the office?”
Xiao Yebai’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed, seemingly deep in thought.
Hearing her question, he looked down, his deep black eyes meeting hers, “Mmm.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Looking at the fruit knife on the floor beside her, she took a deep breath, “Thank you for earlier.”
Xiao Yebai nodded his head, then turned and left.
Mo Weiyi again: “………”
What kind of attitude was that?
If she had known, she wouldn’t have thanked him…
**
Lobby downstairs.
Xu Jing was thrown directly onto the floor by Rong An, screaming in pain once again.
Mo Weiyi quickly went downstairs and found a spot to sit on the sofa.
She wanted to see what Xu Jing was really up to!
Everyone remained silent, each harboring their own thoughts, until some noise came from the entrance hall.
Mo Weiyi immediately got up.
Xiao Yebai also stood up from the sofa.
…
Old Master Mo was wheeled in, sitting in a wheelchair, followed by Shi Kang, Dr. Yu, and seven or eight bodyguards dressed in black.
The procession was grand.
In the midst of a hot June, he wore a thick black silk robe and a hat, the face under the brim pale and stern, his cloudy eyes fixedly staring over.
“Grandfather.” Mo Weiyi approached, her voice soft, “Why did you suddenly come, how is your health?”
His fingers tightened on the armrest, Old Master Mo looked at her, his gaze complex, yet he remained silent.
Mo Weiyi felt it strange and quickly looked towards Shi Kang at her side.
And Xu Jing had already laughed out loud, managing to stand up from the floor while suppressing the pain, “Old master, you’ve come after all.”
The gaze finally moved away from Mo Weiyi’s face, the old Mo only looking at Xu Jing, “What you just said, is it all true?”
“Of course,” Xu Jing’s tone was firm. “I have already had it verified at the hospital. If you don’t believe me, you can have someone perform a test again. After all, seeing is believing, and you brought a doctor along, didn’t you?”
Mo Weiyi couldn’t understand, “Grandfather, what are you talking about?”
The old man nodded, his gaze returning to her face once more.
For a moment, Mo Weiyi thought she saw countless emotions in his eyes.
Doubt, surprise, hesitancy, sadness, anger…
In the end, all that remained in those eyes was indifference.
Then he said, “Proceed.”
Mo Weiyi blinked her cat-like eyes, bewildered, “Grandfather, what exactly are you going to do?”
Dr. Yu set the medical kit on the coffee table, opened the lid, and took a syringe out of it.
Mo Weiyi was stunned.
Not until Dr. Yu approached her with the syringe, he said, “Little Princess, I’m sorry…”
Mo Weiyi still hadn’t understood when her arm was grasped by the man beside her.
A faint, refreshing scent entered her nostrils.
Yebai shielded her behind him, his voice low, “What are you doing?”
“Get the fuck away from me!”
The shout startled Mo Weiyi.
Although she was shielded by Yebai and couldn’t see the old man’s expression,
she knew that the old Mr. Mo had never liked Yebai.
But this was the first time he had erupted so unexplainably, and with such anger…
Dr. Yu hurriedly said, “Mr. Xiao, don’t worry, we’re just going to draw a little blood from the Little Princess. It won’t hurt, and it’ll be over soon.”
“Why take blood?” Yebai asked, his body, however, didn’t move an inch.
Dr. Yu seemed a bit hesitant, “Well…”
“Rong An.” The old Mr. Mo’s aged voice called out, “pull him away.”
Rong An stood there, maintaining his stance since coming downstairs, not reacting to those words at all.
The old Mr. Mo’s eyes turned cold as he looked at him, “Are you deaf?”
Shi Kang couldn’t help frowning.
The next second.
The old Mr. Mo suddenly raised his cane and smashed it toward him.
There was a loud “clang.”
The cane first hit Rong An’s face, then fell to the floor.
“What audacity, now you don’t even listen to me, do you?”
Rong An lowered his head, still not speaking.
Mo Weiyi stared blankly, until a drop of liquid slid from his face, fell to the floor, and splashed into a red bloom.
Her complexion slowly turned pale; her slender white fingers unconsciously tightened around the fabric of the man’s shirt in front of her, completely bewildered.
“Shi Kang.” The old Mr. Mo’s angry voice rose again, “throw him out!”
Shi Kang’s brow furrowed deeply, but he could only follow the old master’s orders.
Several bodyguards quickly advanced, grabbing Rong An and heading out.
“Grandfather!” Mo Weiyi suddenly rushed forward, stretching out her arms in front of Rong An, “Don’t bully Rong An!”
“Don’t call me grandfather!” the old Mr. Mo’s voice surged even higher.
Mo Weiyi’s complexion nearly turned ashen,
her voice trembling, “Grandfather, what’s the matter with you?”
The old Mr. Mo clutched his chest, shaking uncontrollably due to his outburst.
Shi Kang hurriedly grabbed some medicine and came forward, “Old master, be mindful of your health.”
The old Mr. Mo took a deep breath and waved him off.
He commanded in a deep voice, “Shi Kang, do as I instructed.”
“…Yes.”
Shi Kang sighed, approached Mo Weiyi, “Little Princess, please cooperate with Dr. Yu for a moment. We just need a small tube of blood, and you can rest assured, once the truth comes out…”
“Why do you all want my blood?” Mo Weiyi interrupted him.
She didn’t understand.
Really didn’t understand.
Looking at the old man in the wheelchair, she suddenly felt utterly alienated.
Ever since she was young, ever since she had become conscious, the grandfather had always been her most doting elder.
If she didn’t want to practice piano, she just needed to say a word, and grandfather would immediately dismiss the teacher, telling Xu Xian not to force her anymore.
When she said she wanted to be a princess, grandfather had built a castle-like villa in the old house, turning the inside into a dreamy romantic setting.
She liked Yebai, and the old Mr. Mo had Yebai stay, to keep him by her side every day, to marry her.
No matter what she wanted or what she wanted to do, the old Mr. Mo always agreed without a second word, even consulting her first on serious family matters, always listening to her, but now…
She suddenly felt that she didn’t recognize him anymore…
“Hahaha…” Suddenly, Xu Jing’s bizarre laughter erupted from the side.
Her laughter was so exaggerated, tears almost streaming, “Why do they want your blood, and you still don’t understand?”
Mo Weiyi looked at her, her eyes reddening.
“I’ll tell you then.” Xu Jing spoke word by word, almost cruelly, “because you are not my sister’s daughter at all. You are just a counterfeit, a fake, do you understand!”
Mo Weiyi was entirely dumbfounded.
She didn’t know if she didn’t hear clearly or didn’t understand, but her expression suddenly turned blank.
Yebai frowned deeply beside her.
The usually expressionless Rong An showed a look of shock and disbelief.
The others also instantly showed a mix of expressions.
There was a moment of silence in the living room.
You could hear a pin drop.
Several seconds later, Mo Weiyi finally reacted, she turned to the old Mr. Mo, “Grandfather, what does she mean by that?”
The old Mr. Mo looked at her solemnly, his features tense, yet he remained silent.
“You are so stupid!” Xu Jing continued to laugh, “What I mean is, you are not your brother-in-law and my sister’s daughter, you were adopted from the orphanage by my brother-in-law! You’re not really a Mo family member, you’re not the Mo family’s princess, you have absolutely no relation to the Mo family!”
