My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day - Chapter 430
Chapter 430: 430, a perfect match made in heaven
As expected, Mo Yaoxiong did not let her down, and she successfully managed to continue living in the Mo Family up to now.
But this Mo Weiyi, really seems to lack any social graces, to straight out ask such a question?
Thankfully, Mo Yaoxiong quickly intervened, “Your aunt has already looked at some houses, she just hasn’t decided yet.”
“Why not?” Mo Weiyi tilted her head, seemingly truly confused,”It’s been almost half a month, hasn’t she found a suitable house yet?”
Qu Yunyao felt like it was clear that she was ridiculing them for lingering in the Mo Family’s house!
Xu Jing managed a smile,”I’ve been busy preparing for final exams at school recently, so I haven’t had much time to look at houses. I’ll start looking tomorrow and move out as soon as I can.”
These words sounded somewhat submissive.
Immediately, Qu Yunyao also expressed her grievance,”Yiyi, don’t worry. I’ll accompany my mom to look at houses tomorrow.”
The elder of the Mo Family furrowed his brows at this.
Mo Yaoxiong’s face also showed some displeasure.
Mo Weiyi blurted out, “What does that mean, Yunyao? It sounds like I’m pushing you to move out.”
“Yiyi, you’re overthinking. I didn’t mean to blame you, I was at fault, I shouldn’t have acted impulsively and upset you last time…”
“You were scolding us last time for no reason…”
“Weiyi.” Mo Yaoxiong sternly interrupted his daughter.
What sort of occasion is this?
Talking about such trivial matters here for so long, was that necessary?
Mo Weiyi puffed her cheeks out in frustration and fell silent.
“We’ll discuss these matters at home.” Mo Yaoxiong concluded. He then looked at Xu Jing, “The reception is about to begin, you should go and have something to eat first.”
Qu Yunyao gave a polite smile, “Uncle, in that case, we’ll go and eat first.”
“Go ahead.”
Xu Rui nodded to the crowd, then turned around, and the three went to the dining area.
However, just after they had sat down and had a few bites, Qu Yunyao suddenly covered her mouth, as if she was going to vomit.
“Mom, I feel a bit uncomfortable, I want to go to the restroom.”
Xu Jing said immediately, “I’ll go with you.”
“No need.”
“No need.”
Qu Yunyao and Xu Rui spoke simultaneously.
Because they were in sync, they looked at each other and smiled. Then Xu Rui said, “Mom, I’ll accompany her.”
“Alright.” Xu Jing nodded.
Seeing Xu Rui being so considerate of her daughter, Xu Jing felt slightly comforted as a mother.
When Qu Yunyao reached the entrance of the banquet hall, she suddenly stopped, looking towards the stage.
Mo Weiyi was currently hanging onto Xiao Yebai’s arm, conversing with a pair of elders.
Without a doubt, Mo Weiyi looked extremely beautiful tonight.
The cute red dress made her glow, luxurious and bright, dazzling and charming.
Furthermore, having Xiao Yebai by her side, they made a handsome and beautiful pair, a match made in heaven.
However…
A hint of malice flashed through Qu Yunyao’s eyes.
Mo Weiyi, enjoy the spotlight on you right now, because soon enough, you won’t be able to hold your head high anymore.
In fact, you won’t even be able to…
smile!

As the background music started playing, the guests gradually took their seats, and the anniversary reception officially commenced.
The VIP seats were in the front. The Mo Family occupied one table, and the seats for Qu Yunyao, Xu Jing, and Xu Rui were arranged at the adjacent table.
Both the emcees came from Nancheng TV station, speaking perfect Mandarin, and their hosting style was humorous and interesting, quickly raising the atmosphere of the venue.
The first item on the agenda was the screening of a promotional film from the Mo Group. Following the nearly ten-minute presentation was the second segment; speeches from key representatives.
Representing Mo Group was none other than President Xiao Yebai himself.
When he stood on the stage, his scholarly and indifferent gaze slowly surveying around, applause erupted continuously.
Mo Weiyi was sitting in the central VIP seat, busy recording with her mobile phone, she couldn’t help but nick over to her best friend,”Tell me, isn’t my husband handsome?”
Su Wanwan made a face,”Isn’t it enough that you think he’s handsome?”
To her, Xiao Yebai was simply too cold.
Think about it, she had known Mo Weiyi since childhood, and therefore got introduced to Xiao Yebai through her best friend when Weiyi was ten. Even though they’ve known each other for ten years, every time they met, he never shared even a smile…
It was really hard to like him!
Su Wanwan felt that her own husband was much better, at least he wasn’t so cold, and sometimes, he was even warm.
With this thought, she couldn’t help glancing at her husband beside her.
Huo Jingshen was watching the stage, his handsome profile was elegantly gentle, with a perfectly straight nose that resembled a mountain peak, his thin lips pursed slightly, his slightly raised chin showing his firm and somewhat proud features.
Mo Weiyi, standing aside with her phone, continued to take pictures, “Isn’t my husband so handsome!? Absolutely stunning!”
Su Wanwan nodded in agreement.
Yeah, my hubby is so handsome!
Absolutely stunning!
…
Xiao Yebai’s speech was not long.
He succinctly summed up the development of Mo Family over the past fifty years, as well as future prospects, and thanked some of the attendees at the end before he stepped off the stage.
“Thank you, CEO Xiao,” the host said, taking the stage with a microphone.
Mo Weiyi immediately went to him,” Xiaobai, you… ”
“Mr. Xiao.” Suddenly, a man’s voice interrupted her.
Mo Weiyi instantly put on an unhappy face.
It was Xu Rui.
He held up a glass of wine and said very respectfully, “Mr. Xiao, may I interrupt you for a few minutes?”
Mo Weiyi thought Xiao Yebai would refuse, given that the banquet had just begun but…
“Alright.”
Xiao Yebai rose from his chair.
Not only was Mo Weiyi surprised, so was Xu Rui.
He had been expecting to persuade Xiao Yebai further and didn’t expect Xiao Yebai to agree so readily.
He was elated and quickly followed him to the back.
As he was passing the table next to him, he gave a casual glance at Qu Yunyao who was seated there.
As soon as the two left, Qu Yunyao sat there, watching performance on the stage, her lips tugged upwards in a smirk.
She had been waiting for this day for too long.
She had to lie to Xu Rui again about her being pregnant after being unexpectedly exposed by that old traditional Chinese doctor and convinced him to continue with the play, following which, she rearranged all her plans.
Finally, she chose today, the 50th anniversary of the Mo Group, for the grand confrontation!
As almost all the noble families of Nancheng and many journalists were attending today, if anyone found her and Xiao Yebai in a clandestine rendezvous, and if they were exposed, even if Xiao Yebai was innocent, he would be left without a defense!
Who would need any photographs?
WeChat, text message records?
No evidence was more convincing and shocking than what you see with your own eyes!
So, as long as Xu Rui gets Xiao Yebai to drink the aphrodisiac, she’ll find him in the rear garden when he falls unconscious. With Xu Rui shouting out to everyone while the two were in the midst of the act…
Suddenly, the banquet hall burst into laughter.
Qu Yunyao snapped back to reality, watching the humorous performance on stage, she too started laughing along, only hers was over exaggerated, attracting the attention of Xu Jing who was sitting next to her.
What’s wrong with this girl?
Did she lower her sense of humor threshold?
…
About ten minutes later, finally, her phone vibrated.
Upon checking her phone swiftly, Qu Yunyao said, “Mum, I’m going to the restroom.”
Xu Jing hurriedly responded, “I’ll go with you.”
“There’s no need, I’ll go by myself,” Qu Yunyao refused.
However, Xu Jing was worried, “You’re pregnant now, I don’t feel safe.”
“It’s okay, I will walk slowly, it won’t be a problem. Relax mom, there are bodyguards all around, what’s there to worry about?”
Xu Jing: “…”
Well, that makes sense.
Today, Mo Yaoxiong moved all the bodyguards from the Mo mansion to this venue, apart from them, there are also security personnel from the hotel ensuring the smooth functioning of the anniversary.
She nodded, “Then, be careful and watch your step.”
“I know.” Smiling, Qu Yunyao left.
Stepping out of the banquet hall, Xu Rui was already waiting for her in the corner of the corridor.
“Yunyao.” He eagerly approached, glancing around nervously, “Nobody noticed, right?”
Qu Yunyao shook her head, “Where is my brother-in-law?”
“In the rear garden.” lowering his voice, Xu Rui said, “He has already drunk that glass of wine. He said he was feeling dizzy, so I said I would call Miss Mo for him, he didn’t suspect anything. You must go at once.”
“Alright.” Qu Yunyao’s voice was shaking slightly from the excitement, “Call everyone over in 10 minutes.”
“Understood.”
As soon as Xu Rui walked back into the banquet hall as if nothing had happened, Qu Yunyao quickly turned and headed towards the rear, finally arriving at the small garden behind the banquet hall.
Under the gloomy overhead lighting, she noticed Xiao Yebai sitting by a rose pillar on a wooden chair.
Despite the cold wind, there was a faint sweet scent lingering in the air.
A faint aroma of alcohol could also be sensed.
