Chapter 119: Retribution 5
"Do you think I want to bring it up? I really wish to let the past go and never mention it again, but you insisted on bringing Mo Li home. Can you honestly say you didn't adopt her because of He Xiaofan?"
Xiao Jingxuan was also provoked and shouted angrily at Lin Caijing.
"So what if I did? I simply adopted a little orphan girl. Is it necessary for you to say such things?"
Lin Caijing questioned angrily, "Little orphan? She is not just any little orphan. Have you ever considered my feelings? I have to face the daughter of my rival every day. Do you know how difficult that is for me?"
Xiao Jingxuan felt a bit guilty and calmed down.
He comforted her, "She is not the daughter of me and He Xiaofan. My relationship with Xiaofan is completely innocent. What do you have to be jealous about?"
Lin Caijing's eyes were red as she stared silently at the road ahead.
Xiao Jingxuan had no choice but to comfort her again.
"Alright, don't be angry. I adopted Mo Li not because I'm afraid people will suspect that Mo Shaohui's death was caused by me. You should know my relationship with Mo Shaohui; we were rivals in business and once competitors in love, so it's natural for people to have doubts."
Indeed, ever since adopting Mo Li, others have praised his kindness and compassion.
No one talked privately about words that were unfavorable to him anymore.
Lin Caijing let out a cold snort.
"You can fool others with that, but don't think you can fool me. Are you really going to say that you adopted Mo Li not because of He Xiaofan?"
Xiao Jingxuan's patience was wearing thin again.
He said irritably, "Can't you be a bit magnanimous? What’s there to be jealous of over someone who has been dead for many years?"
"Dead for many years?"
Lin Caijing laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Even if she has been dead for many years, she still occupies an important place in your heart. Fortunately, she died back then; otherwise, Xiao Fang and Xiao Ran would have ended up as single-parent children. I truly feel fortunate about the choice I made back then."
"Fortunate about what?"
Xiao Jingxuan asked warily.
From what he knew of Lin Caijing, her words seemed to carry a very special meaning.
That meaning sent a chill down his spine, making him hesitant to think further.
Lin Caijing seemed to have regained her composure and immediately denied it.
"It's nothing, just relieved that she was in a car accident."
