Zhao Fang realized something terrible, and was immediately filled with guilt.

However, the next moment, Zhao Fang comforted her in her heart, thinking to herself, if we really follow Zhang Li's plan, it won't be a disgrace to loyalty, right?

If that's the case, it doesn't seem impossible...

Zhao Fang immediately thought to herself, "My God, what is she thinking?"

At this moment, Chen Mo's eyes lit up when he heard Zhang Li's words.

Because this is exactly what he wanted.

He knew that Zhang Lishi would not disappoint him, and would even do a better job than he had hoped.

Because this is the direction Chen Mo wanted to guide the project in; only in this way could the plan be successfully completed.

First, remove Zhao Fang from her status as a daughter-in-law, then make her Zhang Li's adopted daughter. This way, Zhao Fang can regain a completely new identity and be freed from the shackles of ethical norms.

Even if people gossip behind their backs, they'll only call Zhang Li a fool, because she willingly let Zhao Fang go.

Since Zhao Fang has ended her relationship with Zhang Li, it is not considered a disgrace to her fidelity no matter who she marries.

He originally intended to guide her step by step, but he didn't expect Zhang Li to do it so well.

This was indeed beyond his expectations.

However, upon closer reflection, all of this is quite normal. Given Zhang Li's extremely greedy personality, even if Chen Mo didn't need to be taught, she would find a way to justify herself.

This saves him a lot of trouble.

The next moment, Chen Mo also pretended to be surprised by Zhang Li's appearance, and then said to Zhang Li, "This..."

Chen Mo's expression was no longer as resistant as before; instead, it showed that he was thinking or hesitating.

However, this scene was good news for Zhang Li.

Because for Zhang Li, this meant that Chen Mo had wavered and had already accepted her plan.

However, Chen Mo couldn't appear too eager, because the more eager he was, the more Zhang Li felt that she had the upper hand.

He hurriedly tried to persuade Chen Mo again, saying, "Big brother, don't think about it anymore."

"Look how wonderful our Zhao Fang is. She's not only beautiful, but also very kind-hearted. Look how filial she is to us."

Chen Mo couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. If it weren't good, I wouldn't have gone to all this trouble.

However, Chen Mo still said to Zhang Li, "Zhao Fang is indeed very good, but I can't go against her personal wishes, can I? That's absolutely unacceptable."

Chen Mo said this because he wanted to see what Zhao Fang's wishes were. Otherwise, even if his plan succeeded, Zhao Fang would still be filled with resistance.

Then wasn't he just wasting his time?

So he wanted to test Zhao Fang's true thoughts at this moment, since he had told Zhao Fang about his plan before, but he didn't know what Zhao Fang was thinking now.

Upon hearing that Chen Mo was interested in Zhao Fang but feared that Zhao Fang would disagree and resist again, Zhang Li became anxious again and hurriedly went to Zhao Fang's side.

Then he turned to Zhao Fang and said, "Zhao Fang, tell me, are you willing or not?"

When Zhao Fang heard Zhang Li's sudden question, her mind went blank for a moment. Then she looked at Chen Mo and saw his staring eyes.

Zhao Fang's face flushed red instantly, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

He stammered, "I, I..."

Zhao Fang did not resist; instead, she showed a shy expression, like a flower waiting to bloom, as if she were facing a sweetheart, wanting to refuse but also welcoming.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Li's face lit up with joy. She then said to Chen Mo, "Brother, you see? You know Zhao Fang's personality. If she wasn't interested in you, she would have rejected you outright."

"Her behavior means she's interested in you too!"

Seeing Zhang Li's candid words, Zhao Fang felt a jolt, her whole body instantly turning red. She couldn't help but feel anxious, thinking to herself, how could her mother-in-law say such a thing?

Isn't this just too... inappropriate?

It made it seem like she was desperate to get married to Chen Mo.

Instantly, she felt extremely anxious and wanted to speak immediately, but just as she was about to speak, Zhao Fang's words got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say a word.

Zhao Fang suddenly realized that if she showed too much resistance, wouldn't Chen Mo just give up...?

Thinking of this, Zhao Fang suddenly panicked for no apparent reason, and instead of speaking, she chose to remain silent.

Zhao Fang was momentarily stunned, thinking to herself, "Could it be that he really is so eager to get married to Chen Mo?"

What's wrong with her?

Why did she undergo such a dramatic change after meeting Chen Mo?

I really hate this feeling.

Chen Mo also noticed Zhao Fang's change and was instantly surprised. He had originally thought that, given Zhao Fang's deeply ingrained traditional values, she would at least resist.

It seems he was overthinking things. Zhao Fang not only didn't refuse, but even seemed to be ready to be picked at will.

Chen Mo couldn't help but smile to himself. It seemed that everything he had done before hadn't been in vain; he had won Zhao Fang's heart.

Without this plan, Zhao Fang might still have refused. However, once this plan was presented, it completely removed the moral shackles of ethical norms from Zhao Fang, allowing him to gain a completely new identity.

Even if she were to be with Chen Mo, it would be considered a normal process according to traditional values, and there wouldn't be any problems at all.

Chen Mo had already made Zhao Fang feel anxious and uncertain, and now that this constraint had been removed, Zhao Fang no longer had any worries, and her long-suppressed heart was once again eager to express itself.

Having thought of this, Chen Mo stopped pretending, nodded, and then said to Zhang Li, "If that's the case, and it doesn't tarnish Zhao Fang's reputation, and Zhao Fang has no objections, then naturally I have no objections at all."

Thinking of this, Zhang Li was overjoyed, looking as if she had accomplished something great. Her face couldn't help but reveal extreme greed, and she eagerly said to Chen Mo, "Then, elder brother, about the bride price..."

Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh inwardly again, and then said, "It seems you really can't wait."

The next moment, Chen Mo said to Zhang Li, "Don't worry, I will give you the highest standard."

Zhang Li held her breath, her eyes gleaming with extreme excitement, and continued to speak to Chen Mo, "Big brother, it's not that I'm suspicious, but can you just tell me directly how much it is?"

Chen Mo said to Zhang Li, "Since I've already spoken up, let's stick to what we agreed on: a bride price of 100 million."

Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Zhang Li exclaimed in surprise, "One million!"

Zhang Li was so excited she almost jumped up on the spot. After all, for someone from the countryside, such a dowry was incredibly high, especially for someone like Zhao Fang, who was already married and widowed.

That's an astronomical price!

It almost drove Zhang Lishi crazy with excitement.

Chen Mo couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, thinking to himself, "My money isn't so easy to take."

Take the million, I'll make you cough it all up later.

While Zhang Li was extremely excited, Chen Mo continued, "Money is naturally not a problem, but I have conditions..."
