Chapter 537: Search for Xia Meng (2/2)

Xinghe waited for half an hour before there was a break in Xia Meng's schedule.

Xia Meng sat down across from Xinghe and asked nervously, ”Do you have anything you need from me?”

No matter how long it had been, she still felt fearful and guilty towards Xinghe.

Xinghe was her usual self. She asked directly, ”Didn't Mubai give you a large sum of money?”

Xia Meng nodded sheepishly. ”Mr. Xi did do that, but I haven't used any of it.”

”Why not?”

For some reason, Xia Meng felt that the Xinghe before her had gotten more reserved and aloof. It was as if Xinghe was disappearing into nature, like a nun that had seen the world and no longer cared about it.

Therefore, Xia Meng knew she was only being perfunctory. Regardless she answered truthfully, ”Because I wanted to give myself a change. I realized I was too naïve and too dependent on others which caused me to make some bad decisions in my earlier life. I've thought long and hard about this; if I can stand up on my own, I believe my life will be different. Therefore, I don't want to use Mr. Xi's money; I want to fight for my life using my own strength…” Xia Meng continued happily, ”After a few more months of work, I will have saved enough to return to school. I will give myself a new start with this new identity.”

”Congratulations,” was all Xinghe said. Xia Meng blushed slightly before asking again, ”Then why did you come looking for me?”

”I want to locate your father.” Xinghe finally stated her purpose.

Xia Meng was surprised. ”My father? Why would you want to find him, is it because of the memory cells?”

”His medical skill is very good, isn't it?”
