Chapter 44 The Beautiful Men who Are Like The Moon and the Devil (2/2)
Mo Xuetong brought Mo Yu with her and left the fake mountain. The breeze caught her satin dress, making her seem weak and slender in the vastness of the place. She stood, poised and attractive. Her slender waist was hidden by the billowing of her skirts. The purity of the young girl held an indescribable charm that was extremely attractive.
Bai Yihao's eyes shone and he could not help but size her up. Under the sun, he could see the slender girl clearly. There was a slightly shy expression on her pale face. She bit her lips somewhat childishly. Her eyes shone bright and clear with purity and also a hint of youth. She was just a beautiful as when he had last seen her. Her slightly upturned eyes and her shy appearance were all signs of her beauty.
It was not the beauty of flowers blooming, but it was the beauty of a shy, charming orchid. It was fresh and natural.
This charm was not reduced by her undeveloped body, but instead, added a breath of freshness and naturalness. She was beautiful in her quiet elegance, seeming ethereal as if she was a fairy who had fallen into the human world. Every time he looked at her, he felt as if she was getting more and more beautiful.
Compared to her, the other gracious n.o.ble young women all felt fake and intentional.
Bai Yihao stared at her quietly until she appeared before him.
”Greetings, Sir Bai. Many thanks for your help that day!” She looked down and smiled gently, curtsying sincerely.
”Are things always like that at the manor?” Bai Yihao smiled and asked.
Mo Xuetong looked up and blinked. She did not understand what he meant. She only understood what he meant when she saw the vague smile on his handsome face. She could not stand the searing heat in his eyes and quickly lowered her head. The tips of her toes scuffed the ground subconsciously and she answered with a little hesitation, ”All is fine. Perhaps I have just arrived and there are some things that I cannot accept...”
Everything that happened to the Mo family was a family matter. A matter like that had not only embarra.s.sed Mo Xuemin but also her as well. She was the main daughter of the Mo family, which was why she did not intend to talk about it in detail with anyone else. Furthermore, she did not think that Bai Yihao was interested in knowing what was happening in other manors. Ever since she had been a target of his threat, she knew that beneath the veneer of gentleness was a vicious and bloodthirsty heart.
If not because of what happened in her past life, and how she could remember the pure and clean youth before her with bloodstained hands and the b.l.o.o.d.y crown that sat on his head, she would not be able to imagine the youth with the sunny disposition before her could do something like that.
This was a heartless person, so why would he bother with the trivial matters of another family?
”Do you want me to help you again!?” Bai Yihao's smile grew even more gentle when he saw her answering carefully. He reached out subconsciously to touch her long hair. But she had suddenly looked up and smiled at him.
Mo Xuetong had not expected such an action. She could not believe that he would do something so rude but had retracted his hand so elegantly and naturally with a smile. It was as if he did not feel that his actions earlier were not suitable and against etiquette.
She bit her lips gently and carefully took two steps back. She curtsied and answered politely and distantly, ”Many thanks, Sir Bai!”
She did not dare to ask him for his help. She just wanted to stay away from him for some reason. If she attracted the attention of Bai Yihao because of such a small matter in the family, she would not be able to settle it. An ambitious person like him who was in charge of the nation and played games of chess with politics was someone she could not afford to offend.
She only wanted to get revenge for what happened in her past life. She wanted nothing to do with anything else!
She did not know why the famous Bai Yihao would say that.
She just wanted to stay far away from him subconsciously!
No matter Feng Yuran or Bai Yihao, they were both people she could not risk offending. The best thing to do is to stay away from them. Far far away!
She did not exist in their world and they should not exist in her world!
Bai Yihao did not look upset at all when she refused. Instead, he looked at her with a faint smile and did not say anything else. He brought his men along with him. The breeze caught his robes which were as white as snow. He was gracious and elegant. A person like this should be like the light and the moon, but she knew that he was neither!
”Miss, they are calling us back. The banquet is about to begin!” Mo Lan reminded her softly when she saw Mo Xuetong standing there silently.
Indeed, the n.o.ble young men and ladies who were scattered across the garden were all heading to a certain place.
The flower appreciation banquet was really about to begin!
