Mother Shi bringing Yue Yiru tonight to deliver the news was just a guise to set him up.
Shi Beiyu insisting on his relationship with Mu Siyin had made Mother Shi and Old Master Shi furious.
Knowing Shi Beiyu's temperament, reacting aggressively would only make their relationship worse!
Perhaps if they tried with both hard and soft approaches, there might be a different outcome.
Mother Shi knew that Mu Siyin had been staying in this villa recently, and since then, Shi Beiyu had doted on her even more.
Every time she had those thoughts, her chest would hurt out of anger, and she could not sleep at night.
Hence, she wanted to use Yue Yiru to sever the bond between Shi Beiyu and Mu Siyin.
She originally wanted Mu Siyin and Yue Yiru to meet tonight so that Mu Siyin would back out from the relationship by herself. However, she did not expect Mu Siyin to be absent tonight.
However, Mu Siyin's absence was also a good thing.
