After Bo Shaoxiu left, Nan Zhi leaned against a big tree, looking up at the sky that was darkening gradually.
Her fan-like long eyelashes was slightly drooping, hiding the fluctuating emotions within her eyes.
When she was 13 years old, she had been severely ill and had to have an operation. After the operation, she took hormone drugs which caused her small, egg-shaped face to swell like a bun, her long black hair to wither and bleach to a straw-like yellow and her body to become bloated. She did not recognize herself at all. Where did her beautiful face silky hair go?
After she became ugly and fat, she was ridiculed and teased by her cla.s.smates and neighbors. Her mother allowed her to stop school for half a year, knowing that she had a strong self esteem and that the hateful comments would only upset her.
Her mother brought her to a resort to recuperate, where she was kidnapped and almost lost her life. When she thought she would not be able to survive that ordeal, someone had rushed in and saved her.
At that time she was so heavy and ugly but the boy did not find her repulsive. He carried her home and took care of her for several days.
When her mother found her and brought her back, she only knew his name was Gu Sheng.
The boy with the sunny smile was only a year older than her.
…
A clear and melodious ringtone of the cell phone pulled Nan Zhi out of her memory.
Seeing the caller’s name, she took a breath and adjusted her mood. She pressed the answer b.u.t.ton, a sweet smile on her lips. “Darling, Mommy won’t be back for dinner tonight. You have to behave and listen to Grandma Zhou, okay?”
The excited chattering of Xiaojie could be heard on the other end of the phone, evoking a tender smile on Nan Zhi’s face.
“Mmm, yes darling, Mommy pa.s.sed the second interview… Of course, there’s nothing your Mommy can’t do once she’s on the field! Okay, let’s call your two G.o.dmas and celebrate for Mommy this weekend, okay?”
She continued to smile as she heard Xiaojie burbling happily.
“Okay, Mommy will be back later. I know, I will be careful, mwah.”
After answering the phone, Nan Zhi’s low mood improved. In front of her little darling, she would be the most fearless woman warrior.
