Birth of a Beauty novel Chapter 113

Mo Xung was silent for a while before he stretched his hands before commenting “Isn’t the night beautiful? The sky is so clear. The moon and stars looks so pretty. The cold breeze-“

Xi Mei whose words were ignored stopped pushing the wheelchair which made Mo Xung to stop blabbering. He turned his head to see Xi Mei staring back at him earnestly.

“Fine, if you want direct answers to your question then...Yeah I am more than curious to know the reason. I feel like I would punch anyone who made you cry. But if you don’t want to share about it, No one will ever force you to do so.…” Mo Xung paused before continuing.

“Though it’s sad, I wouldn’t even know who or what made my childhood friend to cry like this. If you don’t want to talk about it to anyone, you can call Nanny Sui. But don’t cry like this. I feel helpless and useless; I don’t even know how to comfort people.”

Xi Mei was stunned by his words. A dejected smile surfaced on her face. ‘I want to tell him that how much it pained me to see someone close to me suffering in front me. How much scared I was. How much I keep thinking that if Alice hadn’t arrived there, then how worse the situation could be. Yet I can’t say anything for everyone’s sake. I am sorry, Xiao Xung.’ She thought.

“Meimei?” Mo Xung called her out seeing that she went silent all of a sudden.

Returning back to reality, Xi Mei stared up at the sky to hold back her tears “Isn’t the night beautiful? The sky is so clear. The moon and stars looks so pretty.”

Mo Xung knew Xi Mei had no intention of sharing anything with him yet. So he faked a chuckle as he said “Yup, The night is too beautiful. Should I just sleep here while stargazing?”

“Sure, if you love cricket singing, donating your blood to mosquitoes, Hugging bugs, Then, You can.” Xi Mei spoke with a smirk.

Mo Xung shot her a weird gaze, making Xi Mei burst into laughter. Watching her laughing made Mo Xung to smile. ‘I really wish that One day, you could share whatever bothers you, with me. I want you to lean on me. I want to see you happy.’

Wiping off her tears from laughing so much, Xi Mei remarked with her signature smile “Thank you, Xiao Xung for everything.”

*Badum Badum*

Mo Xung felt his heart thumping like crazy. His cheeks were reddening up. He uttered, looking away from her “L-Let’s go. It’s getting pretty late. We need to get up early for school.”

Without waiting for her, he began to move with his wheelchair by himself. “Hey wait for me!” Xi Mei shouted as she followed behind him.

-Shi Residence-

A girl with her beauty face mask on wearing her night gown was sitting beside the window. She was staring at her laptop with a frown.

“This Xi Mei is just a poor bumpkin from some rural areas who came here with her grandmother and sister to study. She lost both of her parents since she was young. She has no any special background, No connection. She even was a complete nerd back in her school.” Shi Yun muttered, going through the information the man sent her.

Shi Yun closed her laptop as she leaned on her chair. Peeling off her mask, she began to ponder ‘If she is poor then, who were those so called ‘her bodyguards’? Does she have rich Sugar Daddy? She has looks, so that can’t be impossible. Let me put that aside, What if those bodyguards weren’t hers from start.’

‘I saw her talking with Xiao San few times. No, Why would…Hmm, It makes sense that Xiao San would definitely help anyone if he finds out they were in danger. However, He was in basketball court, practicing at that time. I was there too. Ugh, this is getting frustrating.’

When Shi Yun was about to give in, a thought suddenly emerged. She opened her laptop again and re-read the last lines, she couldn’t help but to squint her eyes. ‘How could I have ignored this?’

“Few days ago, Her Aunt got sick so her grandmother and her sister had to return back to the village. Xi Mei isn’t at home. Her neighbors don’t know where she is. She doesn’t even have any relatives in the town. So her recent whereabouts are unknown.” She read aloud that information.

“Where is she staying then? Is it really true that she has some sugar daddy backing her up? I have to get my hands on the video tape. So, I have to know who is backing her. What if he is powerful than Shi Family? *Scoff* There is very low possibility.”

She was about to close her laptop, when something interesting caught her eye.

“Xi Mei’s grandmother works as Chef in Mo Residence, Residence of CEO of Mo Enterprises named Mo Dunguo.”
