"Ice beauty, you have changed."
When You Yi said this half-joking remark, Mo Liuying felt filled with disgust.
This is the level of nicknames these people have given her over the years, they haven't improved at all, calling her "Ice Beauty" or "Big Devil", do they really think she doesn't know?
But after complaining, she suddenly realized that she had never trusted others easily before, and her relationship with her classmates was not that close.
If they really encounter any difficulties that they must overcome together, she will not stab them in the back, but she will also be very defensive. It is really difficult for them to open their hearts to each other and trust each other.
Her lack of trust stems from her family. Outsiders might think that a wealthy family is a place of decadence, intrigue, or a choice between human nature and power. Even Mo Liuying, who is in the middle of it, finds it difficult to explain. Moreover, her family's situation is a bit special, and it has an unclear relationship with the underworld.
In fact, family affairs had little to do with her. Although her parents were ambitious, they did not have the brains to match their ambitions. Her grandfather, as the head of the family at the time, saw that they could not make any trouble, so he just let them do whatever they wanted.
If that incident had not happened when she was thirteen, perhaps in a few years she would have gone abroad to study according to her own interests and lived an idle life as she pleased.
But there are no ifs in life. When I was thirteen, a servant in my family was bribed by the enemy and cut off the power supply of the main house, poisoning the large dog in the garden.
The moment darkness came, killing and death came at the same time, and she was scattered by the screaming and panicked crowd.
The infiltrated killers surrounded the main house and blocked all communication signals with the outside world, but they chased them leisurely as if they were playing a hunting game, enjoying the thrill of cat and mouse.
It really is true what the saying goes: villains die because of their talkativeness and procrastination.
Many years later, Mo Liuying could certainly sigh like this, but what Mo Liuying many years ago didn't know was that at that time she bumped into the security captain who was shot three times in the corridor. He told Mo Liuying that there was a backup power supply in the main house. Once the power was turned on, the backup security system of the main house would be activated, and then they could use it to fight back.
Mo Liuying looked at him covered in blood and expressed doubt about this statement.
But she did it anyway, dragging the man along with her.
At that time, her determination and ruthlessness had already begun to show.
Of course she was not without fear, but her first reaction upon touching and smelling the blood was to scream and be terrified, which would only make her die faster.
Under the guidance of the security captain, she successfully activated the backup power supply and protection system, occupied the basement and began to fight back.
Everyone in the surveillance footage looked like they were covered in a layer of deathly gray; even the flowing blood had lost its sense of reality.
That night, Mo Liuying's hands were stained with colorless blood.
Afterwards, she also asked the security captain if he would make the same decision if it was someone else passing by?
The man who had become her first teacher of the special course just smiled and said, "My little master, a person's eyes can actually tell a lot. The first time I saw you in the main house, I knew you were very special."
Mo Liuying thought that he could change the word "special" to "ruthless and ruthless".
After the attack by foreign enemies, there was internal strife, and some people colluded with the enemy to seize more power.
But the civil strife was soon quelled in one night, but the matter was far from over. Ironically, the number of people killed in the attack on the main house was even less than the number when the family was cleaning out traitors and the power change after the civil strife.
Mo Liuying was kept by the old man. She saw everything without missing a single thing. The servants in the house and the old man's men became more respectful to her.
Mo Liuying was confused. In just one night, the old man changed his choice of heir and chose her as the candidate for the head of the family. Could it be that being vicious was the most important plus point?
Of course, she couldn't really ask this, so she tried to probe him in a tactful way. If they wanted to use her as a target, even if she couldn't refuse now, she would have to get the interest back from other places in the future.
The old man just said that as the head of the Mo family, besides the brain, the most important things are decision-making and courage. There are shields to protect you and guns for you to control, but you yourself have to be a knife to hurt the enemy and protect yourself.
You already have the edge of a knife.
Mo Liuying agreed with the old man's words, although she didn't believe them completely, but she had the final say on how to use the things entrusted to her.
The change in the parents was also extremely ironic. In such an aristocratic family, they preferred the eldest son who could bring benefits to themselves. As for their daughter, who was diagnosed by a doctor as a child as being too weak and might not live beyond adulthood, they thought she was not worthy of being loved at all.
But when she became a candidate for the next head of the family, the birthday gifts that were always absent, her mother's gentle embrace and her favorite meals, piled up in front of her without hesitation.
Mo Liuying could sit calmly in the room, listening to reports from her subordinates and accepting flattery from her parents, but her heart felt unprecedentedly cold.
You see, even family members are so realistic. There is no pure trust and reliance among blood-related relatives, let alone strangers.
After that, things became a natural process. She was like an outsider in the incident, spying on the human weaknesses of every person around her, manipulating and controlling them perfectly.
In the end, it was my brother who went abroad to study and lived the life he pleased.
When he left, the brother, who seemed to have been bound and controlled by his parents for half his life, smiled for the first time. He said, "Thank you, sister."
When Mo Liuying went to the airport alone to see him off, she looked at his face, which was exactly the same as her own and was usually too cold, and realized that they were very similar.
Therefore, trust and reliance are too much of a luxury for Mo Liuying. Even her relatives are reluctant to give them, let alone her classmates.
But when did the change begin?
Let her start to consider things other than her own interests.
It should start from the appearance of He Guang. Meeting her was an accident. This person was just like her name. She broke into the green source shrouded in death and haze in an unexpected manner.
Help them and save them time and again, and try your best to hide it as if it were a secret.
Even Mo Liuying couldn't help but marvel at her magic. This person possessed enthusiasm and sincerity that were difficult to cultivate in mainstream society.
Sometimes, when Mo Liuying saw her unexpected responses to danger, she would wonder if they were living in the same world. Well, it turned out later that they were not.
It’s just that kindness is too easy to be destroyed and too easy to be hurt. How difficult it is to grow into a peaceful and bright person.
She always felt that people like He Guang were too easy to be destroyed. After all, kind people were the easiest to be hurt. Darkness and pervasive malice followed them like a shadow.
Only later did she discover that He Guang was indestructible.
"I have killed people, and Guang...
Killed with my own hands."
You treat me as a friend with all your heart, but can you accept my darkness?
We are like two completely different opposites, and perhaps one day we will end up in the same place.
"I'll tell you one thing too. No matter what you were afraid of before, you don't have to be afraid now, because I'm here."
Do you think I'm scared?
Maybe even I have forgotten that I actually have the right to be afraid.
"What about you? Is there anything you're afraid of?"
"I'm afraid...you'll die."
"I will live, and so will they."
I will live and will not let you suffer loss again.
Life would be too boring if we couldn't even indulge in a moment of innocence.
The same is true for trust.
