C207 Unease

The Lady Boss's words were like a bomb, blowing Yi Xiaomi's soul out of her body. A terrifying chill climbed up her spine bit by bit like a poisonous insect, making her limbs and bones feel like they had lost all feeling.

She did not know whether she was still alive or not... Her hands and feet finally went soft. Yi Xiaomi's entire body seemed to have all of her strength sucked away as she collapsed onto the cold floor.

Tears flowed out from her beautiful eyes like a beautiful crystal. They slid down her beautiful face along the arc and disappeared on the soft long dress.

How could it be... How could it be...

The Lady Boss never thought that Yi Xiaomi would have such a big reaction. She was so scared that she quickly reached out her hand to pull Yi Xiaomi who was on the ground. "Aiyo, Miss, what happened to you? Don't scare me!"

Shang Moze frowned. When the Lady Boss's hand was about to touch Yi Xiaomi, he quickly bent down and used his strong arms to carry the obviously foolish woman. Then, he strode out of the shop.

"Hey, hey, hey, your dishes are still being cooked..."

The lady boss's loud and forthright voice became softer and softer behind him. He found a comfortable and cool place and carefully put down the woman in his hand as if he was taking care of a porcelain doll.

Pushing aside Yi Xiaomi's bangs that covered her eyes, Shang Moze held her face and said gently, "Qingren, let's go home, okay?"

C City was an unknown place. Ever since they stepped onto this land, Yi Xiaomi's entire person became more and more uneasy.

"No." Yi Xiaomi's voice was dull and her eyes were empty. "I want to stay here. Shang Moze, I want to stay here."

"I don't want to leave, don't leave..." Yi Xiaomi's tears fell more and more. She wiped her eyes helplessly. "Dad and mom don't like me like this. I can't cry, I can't cry."

Since she was young, her parents had told her to be strong. No matter what happened, she could not easily shed tears. But why did she love to cry more and more?

Clenching Yi Xiaomi's hand tightly, Shang Moze looked at the red and swollen eyes on her white face. His voice was deep and firm, "I want to bring you back to A City."

He should not have brought Yi Xiaomi back. This broken place only brought endless sorrow and despair.

He pulled on Shang Moze's sleeve with all his strength. Yi Xiaomi's voice was hoarse. Her red and swollen eyes were similar to a rabbit's, as if she was holding onto a life-saving straw.

"Shang Moze, Father and Mother will be fine, right? They must still be somewhere. They are waiting for me, waiting for me to find them..."

Releasing her slender fingers, Yi Xiaomi stood up unsteadily. She tightly grabbed the front of her shirt and said, "Yes, they are waiting for me. I am going to find them. They must be waiting for me."

Both of his hands tightly held onto Yi Xiaomi's white arms. Shang Moze lowered his head and stared into her eyes. His deep eyes were like a deep black hole, charming and moving.

"Qingren, calm down. I will help you find them. Listen to me."

"Why? Shang Moze." Yi Xiaomi trembled in pain and sobbed. "Am I a jinx? That's why big brother died. Father and mother are also missing now... Shang Moze, Shang Moze, tell me. Should I not exist in this world?"

"Stupid woman!" Shang Moze fiercely bit Yi Xiaomi's dark red lips. Shang Moze's kiss was fiery and barbaric, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.

"Remember, you are my, Shang Moze's, woman. Naturally, you are the best in the world. Who dares to call you a jinx?!"

"Alright, go find a place to wash your face. Look at your face. It is so dirty and disgusting. Go and wash it for me!"

The man's words were overbearing and venomous. At this moment, Yi Xiaomi's heart was like a warm river flowing in her heart. She rubbed the tears on the man's suit jacket and nodded slightly.

Pretending to be impatient, Shang Moze patted Yi Xiaomi's head and said in disgust, "Okay, go quickly. I will wait for you here."

He knew that Yi Xiaomi might need some quiet time now, so he gave it to her.

In the clean and tidy public toilet, Yi Xiaomi slowly turned on the faucet. She stretched out her fair hands and poured cold water on her face.

The bone-piercing cold feeling made her feel like she was about to die, but it woke her up better. She looked up and saw the woman in the mirror whose eyes were as red as tomatoes and swollen as carrots. Yi Xiaomi could not help but shake her head.

No wonder Young Master Shang was so disgusted just now. If she was Shang Moze, she would have kicked this ugly woman away. Her hair was messy like a chicken's nest, and there were traces of water on her face. Seriously...

After fiddling with her hair, Yi Xiaomi took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. It was fine, it was fine. Her parents must still be in the vicinity of this area. They were people who loved home and valued tradition. Even if something really happened, they had no choice but to sell the house. They wouldn't be too far away from the Yi family's ancestral mansion.

Yi Xiaomi tried her best to smile and reached out her finger to gently stroke the face of the woman in the mirror. She softly said, "Qingren, do your best. Father and mother must be waiting for you. This time, don't run away."

She must find her father and mother. No matter how hard they blame her, she would not run away - she must obtain their forgiveness...

Suddenly, a red color appeared on the clear and clean surface of the mirror. Yi Xiaomi's smile froze and she stared at herself in the mirror.

A piercing liquid flowed out of her white and delicate nose. It extended along her tender and smooth skin bit by bit, like a red narrow carpet that was slowly spread out. It quickly fell into the sink in front of her chest.

Slightly slow, Yi Xiaomi touched her nose. Yi Xiaomi could clearly feel that the special sticky feeling of blood carried with it a disgusting smell of rust.

"Did you fall into the toilet?"

A deep and overbearing male voice sounded at the door. It carried a trace of undetectable worry, but it was like a sudden clap of thunder, waking Yi Xiaomi who was still in a daze.

Quickly lowering her head, Yi Xiaomi laughed and made a small sound, "I am using cold water to wake myself up."

There was no response at the door. Yi Xiaomi lightly breathed a sigh of relief and then quickly turned on the tap to wash the bright red liquid in the pool and splash it on her nose.

The black hair that had already become somewhat long scattered on both sides of her face. Yi Xiaomi thought of her recent dizziness and sleepiness and felt a little uneasy in her heart. Could it be that something really happened to her?

She quickly received some water and used all her strength to pat her nose. Yi Xiaomi shook her head and secretly prayed that she would not have a nosebleed again...
