Chapter 1012: Chapter 1012: Taking the Bait: Mo Chuxi’s “Pretty Boy Scheme” [2]

The early April sunlight is warm and cozy.

Mo Chuxi follows Mu Qianshui to the hospital entrance, spotting her squatting by the flower bed, crying and wiping her tears with a pitiful look.

Eager to wrap things up, Mo Chuxi strides forward despite lacking patience.

Upon hearing footsteps approaching, Mu Qianshui glances over, crying even harder.

Mo Chuxi feels sick but pushes through.

"Yuan."

He calls out.

Mu Qianshui pretends to be startled, slowly lifting her head.

Mo Chuxi lowers his gaze, noticing her face, which appears to have undergone flawless cosmetic surgery; you’d need to be an expert to spot any flaws.

It seems the person behind her is exceptionally skilled.

Not only helping Mu Qianyuan to return with a new look but also discreetly sabotage the hospital’s surveillance and take away his son.

"Brother Xi."

Mu Qianshui calls out again, pulling Mo Chuxi back to reality.

Standing in front of her, despite his tall and slender 1.88-meter frame, he remains her captivating dream lover.

"Brother Xi, Yuan really doesn’t want to lose you. Without you, Yuan truly doesn’t know how to proceed in life."

Mo Chuxi, hearing her words, looks at her indifferently.

"Actually, I am not as vital to you as you think. You’ve grown up, you have your own thoughts, your own views. I was just part of your childhood scenery, not your everything."

He speaks blandly, looking at Mu Qianshui.

"Moreover, I believe Yuan will do well even without me, and that love is not everything in life."

Listening to Mo Chuxi’s words, Mu Qianshui slowly stands up, tears still in her eyes.

In the direct sunlight, she gazes tearfully at Mo Chuxi.

"Brother Xi, you seem to truly love Yan Xinxin?"

"Love, of course, I love her."

Mo Chuxi responds without hesitation.

Upon hearing his answer, Mu Qianshui’s face darkens, revealing a sorrowful look, puzzled as she looks at Mo Chuxi.

"Why? Why did you fall for her? What do you like about her?"

Faced with this question, Mo Chuxi sweetly smiles.

"I admire her determination, courage, competence, shining in life and being adept at work—everything about her, I love."

He praises, envisioning Yan Xinxin with a bright smile.

Listening to him, Mu Qianshui tightens her fingers.

She assumed he liked Yan Xinxin because of her looks, but to her surprise, none of his reasons involved her face!

Yet!

Yet despite this, Mu Qianshui knows she is far superior to Yan Xinxin!

"Brother Xi, Yuan has a question that’s unclear."

She raises her gaze, frowning at Mo Chuxi.

"Brother told me everything about Qianshui, but Yuan doesn’t understand why, after so many years away, while Qianshui always treated Brother Xi well, complying in every way, and becoming a hugely popular star, quite capable and talented, Brother Xi couldn’t see her worth at all, and instead fell for Yan Xinxin at first sight?"

Upon hearing the words "Qianshui" from her lips, Mo Chuxi glances at her subtly, while Mu Qianshui remains composed, meeting Mo Chuxi’s gaze unwaveringly. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Brother Xi, tell Yuan why?"

"You want to know why? Fine, I’ll tell you."
