Mo Xifeng did not say anything in response. She stared at a certain spot on the wall without speaking, seeing her like this Mo Qiang tilted her head to the side and then asked, " Whats the matter? What's with this sudden silence? No scathing remarks?" She was quite surprised. Mo Xifeng was too obediently quiet without making any sarcastic remarks. This was not the Mo Xifeng she knew.
Her sister was way too rebellious to turn quiet like this. If Mo Xifeng did not make a sarcastic remark then was she even Mo Xifeng?
Upon hearing Mo Qiang's words, Mo Xifeng turned to look at Mo Qiang and then stated coldly, " I just think that this is nothing but foolish. If Long Ju likes Xie Li, then she should have treated him better, what kind of love is where only torment and pain exist?"
" This is not a woman with virtue and elegance supposed to act." To Mo Xifeng, Long Ju's actions were nothing less than foolishness, her mother had always taught her that if she liked a mer then she was supposed to treat him as her equal and in case she looked for a man then she was supposed to make sure that the man would teach her as his equal. If there was no such thing as balance between them, then the relationship was doomed to fail.
Love was all about comfort.
Thus, this kind of romance was simply unfathomable for Mo Xifeng.
Mo Qiang leaned back on the chair on which she was sitting. Her hands were in the pocket of her baggy black pants as she pursed her lips and then stated, " Well .. it's certainly foolishness. But sometimes people are too proud to admit that they are wrong," she tipped her head and looked out of the window with a nostalgic expression on her face before stating, " Accepting that they were wrong means that they would have to admit they were at fault. Many people do not have the courage to do it."
As she spoke she remembered the memory of a time when a building that she designed fell through midway through construction. It caused the death of a lot of people and many people cursed her, some even pelted her with eggs and rotten tomatoes.
Back then she was the easiest person to bully and take their anger out as she was only an architect. Mo Qiang still remembered how the people cursed at her, calling her multiple dirty names and blaming her.
While they were blaming her, the case was yet to be solved. The executives tried to push the blame on her shoulders and the rest of the team, while Mo Qiang refused to take responsibility. Things went from bad to worse and finally, the case was solved. And the one who was responsible for the death of the construction workers was none other than the person who was responsible for ordering the building material.
He was the close relative of a high executive and thus he was able to get away from the things that Mo Qiang suffered, he did not even have to offer an apology letter. The executive only needed to shut the mouths of those 'just' and 'fair' people who were suffering with grief after the death of their loved ones with money.
