Mr. Mo had always been flattered his entire life, with almost no one daring to speak to him in such a manner.
Therefore, when Zheng Ze Min spoke to him with that tone, his face turned extremely ugly.
Looking at Zheng Ze Min, Mr. Mo asked, "What are you saying to me?"
Previously, Zheng Ze Min had been quite deferential to him because he was Tang Yi's biological father.
But now, Zheng Ze Min suddenly felt that a man who couldn't even protect his own daughter was rather pathetic.
Mr. Mo repeatedly claimed to love Tang Yi's mother, but when Tang Yi's mother was bullied by his mother and driven out of the house back then, he didn't offer any substantial compensation.
He said he looked for Tang Yi's mother all these years, but couldn't find her.
In the end, it meant he wasn't that sincere.
As a lawyer, Zheng Ze Min often had to collect evidence, and no matter how difficult, he could always find it.
So, Mr. Mo claimed he had searched for Tang Yi's mother for twenty years without success.
Zheng Ze Min did not believe this.
He must have searched, but his subordinates were bribed and reported no findings even if they found her. Furthermore, he didn't personally verify it, thus concluding he hadn't found her.
What kind of search was this?
Mr. Mo sized up Zheng Ze Min. Although the man was dressed in a suit,
his demeanor clearly indicated he was not a scion of a wealthy family.
Such a poor and humble background was truly unworthy of his daughter.
He was still daydreaming about a toad wanting to eat swan meat.
There were no such good things in this world.
Mr. Mo could no longer maintain his composure. In front of Zheng Ze Min, he spoke without restraint, verbally humiliating Zheng Ze Min.
Zheng Ze Min's expression became exceedingly grim.
Tang Yi simply couldn't watch any longer.
She walked over. Upon seeing Tang Yi, Mr. Mo's expression immediately changed. He turned to Tang Yi with a fawning smile and said, "Yi Yi, Daddy is here to take you home."
Hearing Mr. Mo's words, Tang Yi's face instantly darkened.
Yet, Mr. Mo, whether genuinely oblivious or pretending,
stared at Tang Yi, disregarding her display of displeasure.
Mr. Mo calmly said, "Yi Yi, Daddy knows that your grandmother was a bit excessive today, but she might have just had a momentary lapse in judgment. Coupled with some people whispering in her ear, she misunderstood you. When you both calm down in a few days, I'll bring you back again. This time, I'll have your grandmother apologize to you."
Tang Yi found Mr. Mo's words utterly amusing.
The old lady had spoken harshly to her, and he was still defending her.
He even suggested that Han Xiao had said things that caused the old lady to misunderstand her.
Tang Yi found these words incredibly laughable.
And she was truly impolite, bursting into laughter right in front of Mr. Mo.
So, twenty years ago, when her mother was pregnant and driven out of the house by Madam Mo, he had also hypnotized himself in the same way, pushing all the blame onto Han Xiao.
Tang Yi suddenly felt that whether it was her mother or Han Xiao, falling in love with such an irresponsible man was a terribly tragic affair.
Seeing Tang Yi staring at him, Mr. Mo mistook it for forgiveness.
Mr. Mo was extremely excited.
Looking at Tang Yi, he said with a happy expression, "Yi Yi, if you want to date, Daddy will help you find a good boyfriend. Don't keep just any kind of person around you."
"Xiao Zheng is my boyfriend, and if nothing unexpected happens, we will get married. Don't speak ill of him in the future, and don't think about breaking us up. If we break up, I'll die."
Zheng Ze Min knew that Tang Yi was deliberately saying these words to provoke Mr. Mo.
In reality, Tang Yi was not someone blinded by love.
She was quite in control of her emotions when it came to relationships.
If Mr. Mo hadn't shown up today and said such things, Tang Yi wouldn't have spoken like this in front of him.
However, even knowing these weren't Tang Yi's true feelings, Zheng Ze Min was still shocked when she said them, his heart beating a little faster. He simply stared at Tang Yi, his eyes seeming to pierce through her.
After speaking, Tang Yi felt the gaze Zheng Ze Min was sending her and suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
She quickly averted her gaze.
She had only said that deliberately in front of Mr. Mo to oppose him.
She hoped Zheng Ze Min hadn't taken it seriously.
Please, don't let him.
Tang Yi's face felt hot, and she didn't dare to look at Zheng Ze Min. She had no idea how she would explain it to him if he had misunderstood.
But Zheng Ze Min, having seen all sorts of people and fought countless lawsuits in his legal career, felt a warmth in his heart upon seeing Tang Yi's shy expression.
Whether it was to annoy Mr. Mo or to make a vow in front of Tang Yi, Zheng Ze Min
softly said, "Don't worry, in this life, nothing and no one except death can separate us."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Mo clutched his chest.
This shameless man was pretending to be virtuous after gaining an advantage.
He knew perfectly well that their Mo family was wealthy.
And Mr. Mo had already prepared to give all his fortune to Tang Yi in the future.
Thus, he was so eagerly professing his loyalty here.
Whether he cared about Tang Yi or the Mo family's fortune was evident.
Mr. Mo knew that Tang Yi was now brainwashed by this man and wouldn't listen to anything he said or did.
Still undeterred, Mr. Mo looked at Tang Yi and continued to persuade her, "Yi Yi, you have to believe Daddy. I'm over fifty, and I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. I'm quite accurate at judging people."
"I know. That's why you saw through Han Xiao's true nature at a glance. For so many years, even though Han Xiao has done many disgraceful things, would she dare to do them without your indulgence and tacit approval?"
Although Tang Yi spoke calmly, her words were extremely harsh.
Mr. Mo frowned upon hearing this. How could he not detect the sarcasm in Tang Yi's words?
However, Mr. Mo was still unwilling to give up. He wanted to explain to Tang Yi, hoping she would quickly break up with this man. This man was sharp-tongued and not a good sort.
If Tang Yi were with him, she would only suffer.
Mr. Mo couldn't let Tang Yi suffer or be wronged.
But Tang Yi seemed to have seen through Mr. Mo's thoughts. Before he could speak, Tang Yi said plainly, "You should go. Don't appear before me again."
