Capítulo 1541: Chapter 1541: Sir, We Are Not Familiar (3)
“Mr. Xiao, have you ever seen a sister serving her brother? Mr. Xiao, you really have a heavy taste.” Xia Chuqing glared at him, defiantly tugging at his hand, trying to break free.
“I told you, I’m not your brother!” Xiao Mo was annoyed.
“Mr. Xiao, aren’t you being hypocritical? Last time at the milk tea shop in our school, you insisted you were my brother, wanting to take care of me, care for me. Is this what you call taking care? Taking care of me to bed?”
Xiao Mo was clearly choked by Xia Chuqing’s words. Just now he was cautious in front of that older man, but here in front of him, she became unrelenting with her arguments!
How dare she talk back to him!
“Mr. Xiao, let go. If this gets to Sister Chaomu, neither of us will look good.” Xia Chuqing struggled.
She had been drinking too that night, and she had quite a bit of strength.
“Want me to call that old man back for you?” Xiao Mo was angry, coldly watching Xia Chuqing struggle.
“They’re all old men anyway, at least that Director Guan can help my dad, right? What can you do, Mr. Xiao, besides bully me, isn’t it just bullying me?” Xia Chuqing said.
Out of nowhere, she was reminded of the night Xu Chaomu got married, when he… had changed her clothes for her.
That incident cast a shadow in her mind, one Xia Chuqing could never let go of.
“What do you mean by all old men, you better explain yourself!” Xiao Mo was even angrier.
Putting him and that Guan guy in the same category?
And every time he heard Xia Chuqing call him an old man, he was furious.
“Did I say something wrong? Mr. Xiao, don’t deny it. Could you step aside? I don’t have time to argue with you here!” Xia Chuqing was very blunt.
“Your dad got arrested and locked up?”
Xiao Mo pressed her body down to stop her from moving, finally taking a serious look at her.
Xia Chuqing felt terrible, and Xiao Mo’s words provoked her even more. She bit his arm hard.
“Are you here to mock me? Yes, my dad got arrested and locked up, now you can look down on me even more!” Xia Chuqing cried.
She hadn’t shed a tear in front of Director Guan, but now, with Xiao Mo, she burst into tears.
Drinking too much had stirred her emotions, and there was no stopping the tears.
“I haven’t even said anything, why are you so worked up!”
Xiao Mo gasped, looking at his arm, already inflamed.
“Xiao Mo, get out of my way, get out of my way…” Xia Chuqing punched and kicked him.
However, she couldn’t match a man’s strength. Xiao Mo held her shoulders down and threatened, “If you keep yelling, do you believe I’ll get your dad a few more years?”
Even if it wasn’t very manly to threaten a little girl like this, Xiao Mo had no other way with Xia Chuqing.
Clearly, Xia Chuqing was scared.
“Beast, shameless!” Xia Chuqing cursed, “You bully a girl like this, aren’t you afraid you won’t have a son in the future?”
Xiao Mo was both angry and amused, softening his tone, “I can’t have a son in the first place.”
As a man, how could he give birth to a son?
“Are you planning not to let me leave tonight?” Xia Chuqing glared at him.
“What if I say yes?”
“Then tomorrow I’ll report you to the police.”
“Report me for what?” Xiao Mo suddenly showed some interest, “Bullying an ignorant young girl?”
Xia Chuqing was out of options, sniffed, and lowered her head in grievance, “Do whatever you want, I didn’t plan on leaving the hotel properly today.”
“Xia Chuqing, should I scold you or throw you off the 29th floor?” Xiao Mo was truly angry, “Who told you to approach that Director Guan?”
“…” Xia Chuqing stayed silent.
“If you’re not smart, don’t embarrass yourself outside!” Seeing her like this, Xiao Mo felt a bit of inexplicable heartache, “Even if you pleased that Director Guan tonight, he won’t recognize you once he gets out of bed tomorrow, don’t you get it?! Besides, the way you look, you wouldn’t know how to serve a man.”
Xia Chuqing kept her head down, letting him vent, not talking back anymore.
“Instead of studying well in France, you come here with these crooked ideas.”
Xiao Mo had anticipated her actions, which is why he went through great lengths to block the news from her. She truly didn’t disappoint his care.
“If your dad is really locked up, Xiao Mo, you say it so casually, don’t you have a heart?” Xia Chuqing choked up.
“Why are you crying? If you offer yourself to old men like this, does that mean you have a heart? If your dad knew, he would rather die than have a daughter like you!” Xiao Mo said bluntly.
His gaze, cold as ice, fell directly on Xia Chuqing’s face.
“Xia Chuqing, your dad can’t get a reduced sentence, four years is already…”
Xiao Mo paused, stopping himself from continuing. Four years… was the result of countless connections he tapped into, he didn’t believe anyone could be more devoted.
“Go back to France and study well. I said before, I don’t want to fund your eating, drinking, playing, and aimlessly wandering.”
He hadn’t told her that the money for her studies in France was all funded by him.
“If you can earn a scholarship by graduation next year, I’ll take you on a trip.”
Looking at Xia Chuqing on the bed, Xiao Mo felt as if the softest part of his heart had been touched. He reached out, placing his large hand on her head.
But Xia Chuqing dodged his hand, watching him warily.
“Take a bath and get some sleep.” Xiao Mo felt he was being sentimental, let go, and stood up from the bed.
She knew about her dad’s situation in the end, but Xiao Mo actually felt a bit relieved…
After hiding it from her for so long, fortunately, she’s about to graduate.
“I’m not sleeping with you!” Xia Chuqing glared at him.
Xiao Mo stood up, showing a helpless expression, looking down at Xia Chuqing on the bed, he said blandly, “I’m not interested in you.”
With that, he turned and went into the bathroom.
No matter his interest, he planned to stay the night.
He worried that once he left, she’d start overthinking again.
Xia Chuqing was in a bad mood, hugging her knees, constantly thinking about her father’s situation.
Could it really be like Xiao Mo said, there’s no chance of a reduced sentence?
Was Xiao Mo lying to her?
Also, Xiao Mo had known about this for a long time, why didn’t he tell her? And what about Xu Chaomu, did Xu Chaomu know about it too long ago?
Was everyone hiding it from her?
Her mind was a mess, her head pounding.
When Xiao Mo came out of the bathroom, he saw Xia Chuqing curled up in a corner of the bed, hugging her knees, burying her head.
“Still not taking a bath?” Xiao Mo’s voice was low and hoarse, “Be good, change your clothes.”
Xia Chuqing shook her head, not speaking.
“You’re a grown-up acting childish, go take a bath.” Xiao Mo sat next to her and said.
He had no experience comforting young girls, yet when it came to Xia Chuqing, it seemed to come naturally.
Xia Chuqing stayed put, silently sitting without lifting her head.
