Chapter 48 - Role Model (2/2)
Country Z.
A tall and strong man with dark blonde hair stood in front of the gates of the arrival hall.
”Eve, how have you been?” Alexander asked in French.
”Happier than ever,” Mo Xi replied with a big smile on her face.
”That's great.”
”Let's go, we need to get into the mountains before the sun rises.”
”Brother, sister-in-law, this is Alexander. He is London and France's son, he is also a professor at YY University.”
”Alex, this is my brother and sister-in-law. They are professors from Capital University.”
Mo Xi introduced when she saw Jing Mo Teng and Ling Xuan coming down from the other bus.
”You found your family?”
”No, I got married.”
”Oh… Congratulations! I am very happy for you!” Alexander tried to keep his face normal. He was truly happy that Mo Xi found the person she loved, but his heart still hurts from knowing that they truly had no chance anymore. Although Alexander kept his face normal and happy, Mo Xi could see that he was hurting a lot, but she had to let him know.
”Thank you. You will find the right girl soon, trust me.” Mo Xi said.
”I will have to thank you for your blessings then,” Alexander laughed.
It wasn't the first time Mo Xi had people that liked her, but most of the time she could reject them easily because those people don't love her. They may admire her, like her or have a crush on her, but it was never love. Alexander, on the other hand, truly loved Mo Xi. Although Mo Xi rejected him before, Alexander continued to love her in his own ways. He never did anything that was more than what a best friend or family would do, he cared for her and helped her. However, this doesn't mean that Mo Xi couldn't see his feelings. It was because she saw it clearly that she couldn't give him false hopes. She knew how her heart felt, and she knew she treated Alexander nothing more than a family member. They grew up together ever since London and France brought her to YY University. Those ten years of friendship made them a family.
”You know, love could be a habit?”, Mo Xi turned around and got onto the bus with the others after leaving that question to Alexander.
The bus drove towards the mountain areas and Mo Xi clearly felt a presence that had been around ever since she got on the plane.
”Alex, be careful later, someone is tailing me.” Mo Xi said softly to Alexander.
Alexander's face darkened and replied, ”Mm. Do you need aunt Paris to be here?”
”No. Someone has been investigating me back in Country X. I don't want to reveal who I am to anyone else, if we get aunt Paris here, they will start to suspect my identity.”
”Ok. Promise me you will be careful.”
”Promised, do you think I am so easily beaten?”
”Mm. I know you won't be easily beaten, but we are going to the mountain areas, so you have to be extra careful.”
”Understood, I told you just to let you know that's all.”
