Shen Rou clenched her fists and kept quiet.
“Rourou, can you hear me?” Madam Shen sobbed. “What do you think we should do? Is the Shen family really going to decline?”
“I’m sorry, Mom.” Shen Rou bit her lip and dug her nails into her palms. “I didn’t get the money. I don’t know what to do now.”
Before she came, she thought that no matter how heartless Gong Zeli was, he wouldn’t leave her in the lurch.
But she was wrong.
It turned out that men were more heartless than women.
He found the woman who saved him that night.
His heart was with that woman now.
It was only at this moment that Shen Rou understood what she had lost.
She closed her eyes and couldn’t stop her tears. “Mom, I thought he would help me. I didn’t expect him to be so heartless. I want to help the Shen family, but I really can’t do anything now.”
“Who did you look for?” Madam Shen was stunned for a while before asking, “You went to look for Gong Zeli?”
Shen Rou bit her lip and kept quiet.
More and more tears rolled down her cheeks.
“He’s actually unwilling to help?” Madam Shen was a little agitated. “Doesn’t he like you? He chased you for so many years, and now you want his help, but he’s actually unwilling to help?
“It seems like you were right not to agree to him back then. This kind of person usually pretends to be devoted and unrepentant, but at the crucial moment, he’s actually so heartless. I knew he was unreliable, and I never thought of asking you to look for him. Who knew that you’d still go.”
“Mom, it’s not what you think.” Shen Rou wanted to explain. “He’s not the person you’re talking about. It’s just that there’s a misunderstanding between us. That’s why he…”
No matter how Gong Zeli treated her now.
Shen Rou didn’t want Madam Shen to misunderstand him.
“No matter what misunderstanding it is, the Shen family is facing a life-and-death situation now. His unwillingness to help shows that his feelings for you are fake!” Madam Shen seemed to be angered. Her rapid breathing could be heard from the phone. “Forget it, I knew that the Gong family wasn’t reliable. Now that I’ve seen his true colors, don’t bother with such people anymore. Rourou, come back quickly and follow me to the Mo family.
“The Mo and Shen families have been friends for decades. Now, only the Mo family might help us. Only the Mo family can get the Shen family through this crisis.”
Shen Rou’s expression changed. “Beg the Mo family?”
“It can’t be helped. The Mo family is our only hope now. Your dad and Old Master Mo have known each other for decades. I think he will help the Shen family on account of our friendship.”
“But the person in charge of the Mo Corporation now is Mo Yesi.” Shen Rou tightened her grip on her cell phone and looked awful. “Even if Uncle Mo is willing to help, he might not be willing.”
She didn’t want to go to the Mo family.
She didn’t want Mo Yesi to know about the Shen family’s current situation.
Because once Mo Yesi found out, Qiao Mianmian would know too.
She didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of her.
“He’s indeed the one in charge, but Old Madam is the one in charge of the Mo family now. Old Madam Mo has a relationship with Old Madam, and she’s a kind person. She definitely won’t leave us in the lurch.
“Alright, don’t hesitate anymore. Come back quickly. No matter what, we have to give it a try. This is the Shen family’s last hope.”
