My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 586 - : 586, Dumb Geese Rong An
Chapter 586: 586, Dumb Geese Rong An
She was frequently reprimanded by Xu Xian for her lack of talent. Accusing her of being dull and forgetful, Xu Xian often compared her unfavorably to Qu Yunyao, who was a year younger but naturally gifted, diligent, and hardworking.
Even at such a young age, she knew what it felt like to be rejected.
It wasn’t until Xiao Yebai joined the Mo Family when she turned 10 that things changed. She became his little shadow, following him wherever he went. She insisted that he accompany her in everything she did, even during piano practice.
As a result, every time Xu Xian scolded her and made her feel unwanted, she would look at Xiao Yebai. Even though his face was often expressionless with cold eyes, seeing him gave Mo Weiyi a sense of comfort. It felt as if a rainbow had suddenly entered her world, brightening her heart.
…
As she concluded her performance, a handsome young man approached her with a smile, extending a hand.
The little girl rose elegantly. Holding up the skirt of her complex dresses, she politely bowed to the crowd before placing her small hand on Gu Huai’an’s.
She then followed the man to the stage where Gu Huai’an picked up a microphone and started speaking.
“Greetings, everyone. Thanks for attending Haohao’s birthday party.”
His voice was deep, warm, and enchanting.
Though the party was for his younger sister, in reality, most of the guests were there for Gu Huai’an.
After all, he was young, successful, unmarried, and wealthy, ranking among the top eligible bachelors in Nancheng.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a few women started gossiping behind him.
“Why is Gu Qi so fond of this mysterious little sister?”
“He’s treating her like royalty.”
“She’s so lucky to have caught Gu Huai’an’s attention.”
“Do you think she’s just playing the role of a little sister?”
“What do you mean?”
“Look at her, she’s only thirteen but already so pretty. She’ll be a knockout when she grows up; perhaps she’s being groomed to be his child bride.”
“Shh …”
All the chatter was giving Mo Weiyi a headache. Seeing that dishes were being served, she turned to Rong An and suggested, “Rong An, let’s go eat.”
“Sure.”
“Miss Mo.” A sweet female voice came from one side.
Mo Weiyi turned her head to see a young girl she didn’t recognize. “Who are you?”
“I’m Gu Linlin. Don’t you remember me, Miss Mo? I just liked one of your posts on WeChat moments yesterday.”
Mo Weiyi forced a laugh, “Ah, Miss Gu.”
Indeed, she didn’t remember. But given the girl’s surname, she guessed she must be one of the Gu Family’s daughters.
Given her age, she suspected Gu Linlin was Gu Huai’an’s niece.
Not bad looking either, Gu Linlin had beautifully sculpted features, a sweet smile, and a sexy voice.
Most notably, her eyes had a certain warmth as she looked at Rong An. Could it be that …
Just as she expected, Gu Linlin softly asked, “Miss Mo, is this gentleman your friend?”
Mo Weiyi quickly replied with a smile, “His name is Rong An.”
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Rong.” Gu Linlin promptly extended her fair hand.
But Rong An didn’t move.
Mo Weiyi tried to convey her intention with her eyes, but he still didn’t react.
This blockhead!
No tact at all!
This young girl was actively trying to greet you—an excellent opportunity to shake hands. How could he not cherish such a moment?
Gu Linlin’s hand awkwardly hung in the air for a while. It was evident that she felt embarrassed.
Mo Weiyi had no choice but to step in. “Sorry about that. Rong An is a bit shy and doesn’t talk much.”
“I see.” Gu Linlin deftly pulled back her hand under the ruse of fixing her hair. “May I ask where Mr. Rong works?”
Works?
Just as Mo Weiyi was about to answer, Rong An spoke up, “I’m the princess’s bodyguard.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
This fool!
Typically, he doesn’t speak when he should, and when it’s not necessary, he talks more than anyone!
Upon hearing that Rong An was just a bodyguard, Gu Linlin’s disappointment was obvious, and her smile turned somewhat forced.
She initially presumed that anyone accompanying Mo Weiyi must be formidable. Rong An certainly looked attractive, though not in a conventionally handsome way, he exuded a strong masculinity.
She didn’t expect…
He’s just a mere bodyguard?
Just then, another group of guests arrived. Seeing an opportunity, she quickly said, “It looks like my friends are here. I won’t disturb you two any longer. See you later, Miss Mo, Mr. Rong.”
Having said that, she quickly picked up her skirt and left.
As if they were some kind of ferocious beast in a flood.
Mo Weiyi closed his eyes, feeling helpless, “Rong An, can’t you be more tactful? Look at what you’ve done, you scared off the young lady!”
Rong An said indifferently, “I was just telling the truth.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Indeed, it was the truth.
But was there any need to be so blunt?
Actually, as a man, Rong An was indeed very desirable.
He came to the Mo Family over a decade ago, supposedly a foundling picked up by Uncle Shi from outside, something she was not very clear about.
But over the years, he received a great education at the Mo Family. In addition to martial arts, Taekwondo, Capture Techniques, shooting… these skills, his academics never lagged behind. He was a top student in the Computer Science Department at Nancheng University.
For many years, he was in charge of all the security work in the Mo Family.
If he wasn’t a bodyguard in Mo’s house, he would also do well in other jobs.
A few years ago when he graduated from college, Uncle Shi asked him if he wanted to leave the Mo Family and venture into the outside world, but he refused at that time.
Seeing the shocked expression on Gu Linlin’s face just now, Mo Weiyi quickly said, “Ms. Gu has failed to recognize your value, don’t overthink.”
Rong An gave her a strange look, “I won’t.”
What’s the difference between a stranger woman looking up to him or looking down on him?
Mo Weiyi thought he was upset, and comforting him by patting him on the shoulder, “Don’t worry, I have a plan in mind. I will find you a good woman.”
Rong An: “…”
Nevermind.
Little Princess, as long as you are happy.
The two were talking here, not aware that all their actions were being observed by a pair of long and cold eyes in the corner.
The man was dressed in a black suit, which looked no different from the other men’s outfits around him.
At first glance, there was nothing too special.
He had a dark complexion, and his eyes were gloomy. Especially when Mo Weiyi and Rong An left hand in hand, his slightly gloomy, elongated eyes stared at the figure in red dress, slowly finishing off the red wine in his hand.
“Mr. Quan.” A man who looked like a waiter came up to him.
The man called Quan said softly, “Proceed with the original plan.”
“Mr. Quan, there are many young masters on the scene tonight. Any one of them, as long as they create a scandal with Miss Mo, will make quite a sensation. I think…”
“What do you know?” The man interrupted with a cold smirk, “Two years ago, Mo Weiyi was engaged to Chu Xiuhuang.”
“What does Mr. Quan mean?”
“Miss Mo is cheating on her sick husband with her ex-fiancé after the party. Xiao Yebai is nothing more than a stepson trying to get hold of Mo Group. Their marriage is a sham, they each do their own thing behind closed doors, got that?”
“I understand.”
The man gave a ghostly smile, “As long as you understand, go and get it done.”
“Yes.”
The waiter quickly left.
The man picked up the red wine, and slowly poured himself another glass.
His cold, thin lips curled into a wicked smile.
The game officially begins.
Tonight, this is just the first appetizer.

The banquet hall was a scene of bustling men and women, in groups of three to five. There was a faint smell of wine in the air, mixed with the aroma of food and women’s perfume.
After presenting the gift to the birthday girl, Mo Weiyi sat down next to Su Wanwan to enjoy the banquet.
After a while, Chu Xiuhuang came over, but he was alone.
He had delicate features and a long eyebrow connected to his temples. He was surprisingly wearing a black suit and had a charming smile on his face.
Along the way, he was like a bee attracting butterflies. Every few steps, he would be stopped by a woman to chat. Then he would take another few steps, and be stopped by another woman.
He was really flamboyant!
Finally, he arrived. Seeing the empty seat beside Mo Weiyi, he raised an eyebrow with a playful smile, “Yo, Little Princess, why are you all alone tonight? Where is your husband, Mr. Xiao? Didn’t he come with you?”
Mo Weiyi didn’t bother responding, acting as if she hadn’t heard him.
“Little Princess, why are you ignoring me?” Chu Xiuhuang simply sat down next to her, lifted his wine glass, and clinked it against the glass in front of her, “Shall we have a drink?”
Mo Weiyi tilted her face, looking at him coquettishly. With a lazy smile on her red lips she said, “My husband doesn’t allow me to drink out, especially with other men.”
“What are you afraid of? I didn’t slip anything into your drink. Besides,” Chu Xiuhuang said with a suggestive smile, “if I want a woman, do I need to drug her? Which woman isn’t begging for me to take her?”
