Chapter 1379: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (52)
Shi Nianyao frowned with disgust and tried to shake his hand off as she cried out, “Let go, what do you think you’re doing? Mo Zhi, do you have any idea who I am?!”
Mo Zhi was taken aback by her reaction. He released his grip. He looked at Shi Nianyao as she drew out some napkins to clean the back of her hand.
He said, “I’m only afraid that you’ll leave. Don’t go. I- I only wanted to have a chat with you.”
Shi Nianyao snorted icily. “You’d better say what the hell is going on. Where’s Mo Xicheng?”
Mo Zhi smiled and said, “His mother is sick and he’s gone to the hospital. Since the room was already booked, isn’t it good that I’m here to eat with you?”
She chortled and said, “Do I look like I’m so desperate for a meal?”
He replied, “Fine, fine. Let’s get back on track and talk about Mo Xicheng. Don’t you know how cold-blooded the man is?”
Shi Nianyao paused and frowned.
He continued, “We used to go to school together. He was on very friendly terms with another guy and they would go to school, leave school and even do their homework together. As you can appreciate, I was young and hated him, the son of a mistress.”
“That hasn’t changed, you still hate him now.”
Mo Zhi choked and admitted it with a nod. “Yes, yes. I hate him now too. So when we were in school, I bullied him.”
It wasn’t just bullying, for sure, it was severe bullying.
He had turned everyone in class against the boy, so that whoever was friends with Mo Xicheng and whoever talked to Mo Xicheng would cross Mo Zhi.
Hence from a young age, Mo Xicheng had been a loner and had had no friends.
Until the time they went to junior high school. A young man appeared, and because Mo Xicheng had once helped him, he had started following Mo Xicheng around.
But then later on…
That young man got targeted.
The moment he stepped into class in the morning, a bucket of cold water had rained onto him.
And on his way home at night, he would run into thugs who took all his money from him.
But he would not say anything about it and would stand by Mo Xicheng to defend him.
Until one day, Mo Xicheng saw it happening.
Mo Zhi said, “Do you know what Mo Xicheng did at that point?”
Shi Nianyao shook her head.
Mo Zhi smiled coldly and continued, “He beat up all those guys who bullied that teenager. At first, I thought he was a loyal friend, but unexpectedly, he turned around and scolded the young man, saying that the guy was tras and that he was dragging him down. The young man left in a fit of anger, he even switched schools. Because of this, Mo Xicheng became the public enemy in school, everyone thought he had ulterior motives.”
“So Yao Yao, I really do suspect that he’s pursuing you and wishes to get close for the sake of our families’ relationship. So don’t be fooled by his innocent appearance, he is vicious inside.”
Shi Nianyao clenched her fists tightly as her pupils shrank back.
She had not imagined her male idol could have had such a lonely childhood.
That explained the melancholy and cold aloofness he had.
She frowned and took a deep breath. She did not wish to listen to Mo Zhi going on and on.
For she knew that the reason Mo Xicheng had treated the teenager like that was because he had wanted to protect him.
To others, it would just look like mere cold-heartedness.
The next thing she heard was Mo Zhi saying, “Yao Yao, be my girlfriend.”
