Li Yunqi's family knew about his relationship with Jiang Momo during their university years.

In fact, Li Yunqi has always had a harmonious relationship with his family since he was a child.

After all, he had good grades, a better personality, got along well with his family, and his parents were open-minded people.

Even though they sometimes kept a close watch on him, Li Yunqi believed it was only out of love.

So at that time, Li Yunqi told his mother with great joy about having a girlfriend.

Li Yunqi couldn't remember what Yao Chun's reaction was at the time.

All he knew was that the other person kept smiling and telling him that he must bring his girlfriend home to meet them as soon as possible.

Li Yunqi agreed, convinced that his relationship with Jiang Momo had the support of his parents.

He is full of hope for the future.

Unfortunately, just two weeks after her parents learned of Jiang Momo's existence, a sudden change occurred.

He went out to compete, and as soon as he left the examination hall, he received a breakup message. That very night, he was arranged to go abroad. Everything happened so fast that he didn't have any chance to catch his breath.

Before Li Yun could find Jiang Momo to ask the reason, it was the first time in his life that he had a direct conflict with his parents.

"Mom, why? Why do you suddenly want me to go abroad!"

Flight information was being broadcast over the loudspeaker in the airport terminal. Yao Chun, wearing sunglasses, stood in front of her son.

Li Yunqi suddenly felt that Yao Chun was a stranger.

He felt as if he had never seen a mother like this before.

What Yao Chun said next was even more unacceptable to him.

"Yunqi, your father and I are doing this for your own good."

"You've been bewitched by that woman. Instead of being deceived by her in China, you should go abroad to calm down and get a degree. This will make it easier for you to take over the company in the future."

It took Li Yunqi a long time to connect the "woman" his mother mentioned with Jiang Momo.

He stammered in denial: "That's my girlfriend."

It wasn't that woman...

Yao Chun pushed up his sunglasses, looking quite dismissive.

"That's not the case anymore."

Her words completely shut Li Yunqi up.

"You're still young. When your dad was your age, he had several ex-girlfriends."

"Boys, it's normal to have feelings during puberty, but you need to distinguish between hormones and what you can do."

"Since she has already decided to break up with you, don't dwell on it anymore. I've already made arrangements for you abroad."

All of Li Yunqi's attempts to explain were interrupted by the broadcast.

He tried desperately to stay, but couldn't even bring himself to refuse his parents' arrangements.

I could only board the plane in a daze, and when I set foot on this land again two years later, everything had changed.

Li Yunqi always had one thought in his mind.

How did her mother know that Jiang Momo had broken up with her back then?

And the timing of their sudden arrangement to go abroad was just too coincidental.

Could these two things be related?

Li Yunqi had never dared to ask, and even when he tried to subtly inquire about the information, he had no leads whatsoever.

He finally couldn't hold back when he heard Yao Chun equate "neither fish nor fowl" with Jiang Momo again today.

"Mom, I've told you many times, Momo is a good girl. There must have been a misunderstanding when we broke up. Please don't misunderstand her anymore."

Yao Chun let out a hum through his nose.

"I don't care what you think of her, you're not allowed to contact her again."

Li Yunqi pursed his lips. The man in his twenties stood in front of Yao Chun like a child who had made a mistake.

Yao Chun's stern expression finally softened.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. You should prepare well and come back with me tomorrow for the banquet at the old house."

"What kind of banquet?"

Although Li Yunqi has been back in China for some time, he has spent most of his time on work.

Therefore, he was not very familiar with the current situation of the Li family. He had only occasionally heard that the family's power had changed over the years and that almost all the businesses had been taken over by his ruthless uncle.

Speaking of this, Yao Chun also found it strange.

"Do you think Li Jiuyuan has gone mad? Why would he give up so many daughters from wealthy and powerful families and such great resources to marry some Jiang family daughter?"

"The Jiang family is a small and insignificant family, yet he takes it so seriously. He wants to use the banquet as an excuse to announce the other party's identity to everyone."

Hearing his mother say this, for some reason, Li Yunqi felt an indescribable emotion welling up in his heart.

He couldn't deny that he was somewhat envious of his uncle.

At least my uncle could rightfully give the person he liked a title, instead of regretting it like I do now.

Yao Chun gave some more instructions and was about to leave when Li Yunqi mustered up his courage and called out to him.

"Mom, there's something else I need to ask you."

Yao Chun felt a slight sinking in his chest, knowing exactly what his son wanted to ask.

She had already composed herself before the other person even asked the question.

Li Yunqi was very nervous when he spoke.

Did you secretly try to contact Momo back then?

"no."

Yao Chun smiled and took the initiative to confess.

"Yunqi, I admit I investigated her before, but that was only because I thought you liked her and wanted to learn more about her."

"But I soon discovered that the girlfriend you mentioned was actually a woman with impure thoughts and a chaotic private life."

"When you broke up, I was genuinely happy, but I was also afraid you wouldn't be able to handle the blow, so I had your dad send you abroad. As for why I dislike her so much now, it's because I don't want you to get hurt again, understand?"

These words do indeed sound perfectly reasonable.

Li Yunqi could clearly feel his mother's love.

He could even explain the things he couldn't understand back then, but the only thing he couldn't accept was the image of Jiang Momo in his mother's words.

"Okay, stop thinking about it."

Yao Chun raised her hand and placed it on Li Yunqi's shoulder.

"Get some rest."

Li Yunqi had the words on the tip of his tongue, but he could only swallow them back and saw his mother off from the study.

Once he was alone in the study, Li Yunqi sat in front of the French windows.

Looking at the night view outside, and the occasional headlights of passing vehicles on the road.

My mind is filled with only one image.

The scene where Jiang Momo breaks up with him.

He can still recite those messages and those words fluently to this day.

"Momo, why...?"

The phone vibrated, and when Li Yunqi picked it up, his lifeless expression brightened again.

The message came from [Momo's Roommate].

There were several photos. In the photos, Jiang Momo was standing in a corridor, next to a middle-aged man, whose hand was on Jiang Momo's shoulder.

Several photos in a row show the same action.

In one photo, the hand even slid down an inch... two inches...

Momo's roommate: [Senior, isn't it a coincidence? I ran into Momo the other day when I went out.]

I greeted her, but she ignored me; she was probably busy.

Li Yunqi stared at those photos for a long time.

The light that had just appeared in his eyes disappeared again.

Is this really the Jiang Momo from my memory?

No, that's absolutely impossible! There must be some misunderstanding!
