26 Nagging

"Eh… Bring Brother Qiao?" Mo Lihua scratches her head. Even Rita is expecting her to always get Yu Qiao involved in her escapades. "I do not think -" She cannot continue speaking further as Rita didn't give her a chance.

Mo Lihua heard the maid suddenly burst out "Young Miss! Please! This is serious!" Rita begged, crying loudly. "My poor heart cannot handle you running away like this again!"

"Rita listen -" Mo Lihua began, but she was cut off by Rita. In all honesty, in spite of the length of time that the maid had served the Mo family, Mo Lihua is still unsure how to console Rita whenever she has an outburst like this.

"Young Miss you listen!" Rita began to rant again: Do you know how I felt when you left without me? I was so scared and worried! What if they suddenly decided to get you?!"

"Even if you are wearing a disguise, you know that they are still crazy and unpredictable! My heart has been in my throat since you left. feel like I can spit it out at any time!" Rita continued to cry loudly before sobbing, "Then Angelo bullied me for helping you as well!"

Mo Lihua admitted to herself that she made a lot of mistakes that night. Despite how suffocated she felt in her current life, she should not forget that her actions will also affect her servants as well as her father.

Even if there are people who regard her as a worthless tool, there are also those who deeply care about her to this degree.

"Rita I promise -" she tried to console the maid again but was cut off. Mo Lihua's head was starting to ache again. Though she appreciates Rita worrying like a mother hen, she is still not sober enough to not feel annoyed by Rita's noise.

Mo Lihua actually considered hanging up the phone but thought otherwise as she owes this to Rita,

"Then what if you forgot your medicine?! What if the Master learned about you leaving the Manor past your curfew? Good thing Young Master Yu followed you!" Rita sniffed and continued to cry. Mo Lihua heard the maid blowing her nose loudly over the phone before she exclaimed., "I can't experience that ever again!"

Mo Lihua endured listening to Rita's nagging and did not speak again until the maid offered this alternative: "So, Young Miss, if you do not want me to go with you, you can always ask Young Master Yu to be your companion. Angelo approves of this as well."

"So both of you suggest that I should bring Brother Qiao along every time? Even if I am with the pretend boyfriend that I was asking you to find earlier?" Mo Lihua clarified while her brows wrinkled with suspicion.

'Why do I feel that I am being manipulated? This is exactly what Brother Qiao said earlier,' Mo Lihua thought to herself.

"Yes, Young Miss!" Rita suggested smartly, "It is for the best! I also suggest not looking for a fake boyfriend anymore. Even though I do not fully understand why you are doing this, it is still not a good idea. You love Young Master Yu right? Then we can take advantage of him always going with you when you go out!" Rita suggested smartly.

"Rita, you know that I cannot just use him," she reminded the maid tightly. "He has other things to do which don't involve us."

"That also goes for us. You know that even though I have the privilege of continuing college, who knows when they will decide to make things complicated for me. We cannot get him involved in family matters," she continued.

Mo Lihua smiled sadly as she recalled some of the things she experienced before her father got her. She cannot even count how many times she needed to escape life and death before arriving in Phi country.

As a 10-year-old child, why did she need to experience being hunted like livestock? Is it because she needs to learn to survive? Despicable!

'Run ugly!, Run! Run! Run! Hahaha!' Mo Lihua can still remember the evil laughter quite clearly, and remember the way she told them that she is human as she begged for them to stop shooting.

'I am human!' She remembers shouting with anger, but nothing happened.
