As Dongfang Mo coldly sent them away, he turned his wheelchair to leave the scene.
2Dongfang Mo was still holding on to Mu Ru, and she could not break free. She could only obediently follow him as he asked to be brought to the backyard.
2Mu Ru did not know when her father, Mu Xue, and Nangong Xun left.
She only knew that when she pushed Dongfang Mo out of the living room, Dongfang Jun and Dongfang Mei were looking at her with a strange gaze.
2She did not understand why Dongfang Jun was looking at her with that strange expression, nor did she understand what Dongfang Mei was thinking.
2They must have thought about how stupid she was for giving up such a good opportunity to leave Dongfang Mo.
2In fact, she had considered taking the opportunity to sever ties with Dongfang Mo. She had even fantasized about escaping the house.
2It would be impossible for her to marry Nangong Xun because she no longer considered herself virtuous. Nangong Xun would probably not want her if he knew.
2Nangong Xun and Dongfang Mo were both relatively unfamiliar to her. She knew neither of them on a deeper level.
2She knew that going away to be with Nangong Xun would be unrealistic.
2She also knew that Dongfang Mo would not allow her to go anywhere.
2Back then, it was her father himself, Xi Yuancheng, who had forced her to stay with Dongfang Mo, and Dongfang Mo had no choice but to accept her.
2It was such a surprising turn of events how her father wanted Mu Xue to be with Dongfang Mo instead. She knew that it would not have ended well because Dongfang Mo was not the kind who would easily be swayed.
2She knew that Dongfang Mo would not agree to her leaving. It did not really mean that Dongfang Mo preferred to be with her instead of Mu Xue. She felt that it was all because Dongfang Mo's pride had been hurt. His ego was getting in the way of accepting Mu Xue again.
2Therefore, Mu Ru felt it was useless. She did not want to waste a single ounce of effort in fighting for her freedom.
2She had seen that Dongfang Mo and Nangong Xun were already arguing because of her, so she thought of making the decision for everyone by saying that she was the wife of Dongfang Mo. It was her way of saving everyone the trouble of continuing the argument.
2At the very least, she was able to put a stop to their arguing. She felt that Nangong Xun could instead blame her and not Dongfang Mo for how things turned out.
2Mu Ru naively thought that by refusing to return to the Xi family and choosing to remain as Dongfang Mo's wife, Nangong Xun would not blame Dongfang Mo and the Xi family would only blame her.
2In fact, the matter was much more complicated than she had imagined. Nangong Xun had blamed the whole incident on Xi Yuancheng.
2Mu Ru had read her mother's text message a week after it was sent. Little did the Xi family know that for two weeks, Mu Ru's life was not as easy as they thought.
2Firstly, Dongfang Mo did not let her go to school just because she chose to stay in the Dongfang family.
Dongfang Mo was a man of his word. Mu Ru had not accomplished her task concerning Nangong Xun, so she was still not allowed to go to school.
2Furthermore, the Dongfang Corporation was in a rocky situation. From the day she had assumed Xi Muxue's identity to marry Dongfang Mo, things started to go downhill for the corporation. Nangong Xun had even cut off all business dealings with the Dongfang Corporation because of her. He also refused to pay the corporation a sum of money that he owed from the previous year.
2Mu Ru felt that she was partly to blame for everything that had happened. Dongfang Mo was so angry that he did not let her go to school, and she did not dare say anything to object it.
2Also, Dongfang Mo seemed to be very busy during the first half of the month. It was probably because of Nangong Xun's sudden withdrawal pullout of all business dealings with the Dongfang Corporation.
2Meanwhile, Dongfang Yu was also busy. He was probably busy playing around with his women.
2Dongfang Yu not only liked to play with women, but he also liked to gamble. Not seeing him around the house for several days at a time was not unusual.
