449 Chapter 449. Cold War?
From Mo Xi’s words, Mo Su also found out some details. Her Mo Qian did like Zhuang Xian a lot, but she had no choice but to treat him indifferently. It was as if she didn’t care much about him.
If an ordinary person encountered such a situation, they would probably be rushing to cling to Mo Qian. A man like Mo Qian, who was rich, powerful, and handsome, was the dream boyfriend of many girls!
If they were to discover that a merely adopted daughter of the Zhuang family dared to cling to Mo Qian, they would probably spit on her and drown her to death!
These were all things that Mo Xi had understood from her words. Naturally, she knew this was Mo Xi’s sincerity and protection of Mo Qian. She also understood that Mo Xi’s subjective opinion was present in what he said. Mo Xi was completely standing on Mo Qian’s side of things, so his attitude towards Zhuang Xian was unfair!
Therefore, what Mo Xi said about being neither cold nor hot was up to Mo Su’s verification. She did discover something very different.
According to Mo Xi, when Zhuang Xian first applied acupuncture to Mo Qian, Mo Qian’s reaction was extreme. He was almost driven crazy by the intense pain, and it was only by Zhuang Xian and Mo Xi that Mo Qian was under control.
But this time, she, Mo Ye, and Mo Xi had been standing guard outside the door the entire time, but they did not hear Mo Qian’s cry of pain. Even after the acupuncture, Zhuang Xian did not ask for help. Only Zhuang Xian accompanied Mo Qian in the room from the beginning to the end.
Old Madam Mo’s sharp mind told her that some other factors must be affecting Mo Qian behind this phenomenon. Otherwise, how could Mo Qian withstand such torture? And what role did Zhuang Xian play in this?
Mo Su didn’t understand the treatment, but she could understand the emotional ties of human beings. Zhuang Xian couldn’t have any feelings for Mo Qian! Zhuang Xian liked Mo Qian!
After concluding, old Madam Mo was neither excited nor anxious. This was because the conflict between Mo Qian and Zhuang Xian was the most urgent thing to resolve.
That was why old Madam Mo had asked the old woman beside her, who had been around for many years, to test Zhuang Xian’s words.
When Zhuang Xian walked out of the dormitory with her first aid kit, she was slightly confused. She felt that she could not understand Mo Qian.
As Mo Qian had said, she did not know what Mo Qian wanted from her.
Was It Love? Zhuang Xian asked herself.
But didn’t I already promise Mo Qian? There was a two-year agreement between them, and she would not go back on her word. What dissatisfaction could Mo Qian still have? Was it because she had not explained why she was crying to him?
Zhuang Xian’s heart was filled with many questions, confusion, and frustration!
After seeing Zhuang Bai, she had no way of explaining her emotional breakdown and loss of self-control. She didn’t want to lie to Mo Qian but couldn’t tell him everything. That was why she was so conflicted and couldn’t back down!
How would she explain to Mo Qian that she was not the Zhuang Xian of this world but a ghost that had been reborn and was filled with blood and hatred?
The reason why she had to go through this was to appease the regrets of her previous life. She wanted evil to be rewarded and good to live a healthy and happy life. That was all!
Zhuang Xian felt that she did not belong to herself alone before all these things were completed. She had to give up her life for the Zhuang family.
Therefore, she was a little timid in the face of Mo Qian’s favoritism and pursuit.
Mo Qian’s love confession was like a layer of honey on the blade. She knew it was sweet, but she couldn’t ignore the danger and murderous intent hidden under the love and the unfinished business on her.
When faced with a relationship that was about to begin, Zhuang Xian would lack some courage. That kind of courage should be like what Lin Feng had displayed this afternoon when he confessed to her. It was passionate and fearless, not caring about the consequences and long-term, only seeking to be free and easy at the moment!
On the other hand, Zhuang Xian seemed to have long lost the ability to love. This simple yet intense courage was also what she lacked.
