Mo Xiaoqing smiled, her voice soft and sweet, "I know."
She knew she was already very fortunate. From a young age, she had been pampered by her family and practically grew up in a honey pot.
Therefore, she was truly content. Even though Ji Muhan's attitude towards her wasn't exactly friendly at the beginning, she was still happy with it and always felt incredibly blessed.
Mu Liangliang looked at her with surprise, realizing for the first time that this seemingly clean and simple girl was not as simple as she appeared.
It seems like they understand everything, yet it also seems like they understand nothing. They remain detached, like outsiders who have never been involved in the situation. They have been watching them clearly from beginning to end, while others struggle and sink deeper and deeper into the game!
Mo Xiaoqing's ability to always maintain a clear head made her inexplicably dislike her!
Mo Xiaoqing smiled and said nonchalantly, "From the first moment you saw me and the first words you spoke to me, I knew you didn't like me!"
Her expression was so calm and composed, as if she were simply recounting what she had for breakfast…
Mu Liangliang felt a strange irritation and looked at Mo Xiaoqing with a strange gaze. "Since you know everything, why pretend you don't?"
She couldn't understand why someone so intelligent, capable of sensing all the danger, would still step into it without hesitation. Was she simply too foolish or too confident...?
Even knowing she harbored ill will towards her, she still allowed herself to get closer to her; she... couldn't understand Mo Xiaoqing...
What is she really thinking?
Or rather, what does she... want?
Mo Xiaoqing blinked, tilted her head slightly, looked at her innocently, and said with a pure and innocent expression, "Because we're friends!"
Mu Liangliang had guessed many possibilities, but she never thought that she would answer her with such a reason, and she never even thought that the delicate doll with such exquisite features was blessed by God.
She turned her head and smiled, her soft, sweet voice just as it always had.
"Because we're friends!"
"Because we're friends!"
"Because we're friends!"
Her words kept echoing in her ears, as if cursed. Whether she liked it or not, Mo Xiaoqing's sweet, soft voice, like a glutinous rice ball, kept repeating...
"Because we're friends, I trust you won't hurt me!" Mo Xiaoqing smiled sweetly, revealing two pretty dimples at the corners of her mouth, her clean and pure eyes seeming to draw you in...
A wave of sorrow suddenly washed over Mu Liangliang. This sorrow was so intense and devastating that it left her utterly defenseless.
The culprit, however, still smiled brightly at her, like the rising sun, bringing a touch of warmth that wouldn't burn her, striking straight into her heart without any aggression.
Whether she liked it or not, Mo Xiaoqing's captivating smile and beautiful appearance were firmly etched into her mind! Without giving her a chance to object or resist, it took root and sprouted in her heart...
Do you remember the story I told you last time?
Mo Xiaoqing blinked, seemingly surprised that Mu Liangliang had suddenly veered off to such a different topic, but she still nodded obediently, her eyes showing a mixture of understanding and confusion.
"I've only told half of the story of the protagonist in the story. Don't you want to know where the protagonist is now?"
Mo Xiaoqing remained silent for a moment.
"But with your intelligence, I'm sure you've already guessed who the protagonist of the story is, haven't you?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaoqing's long eyelashes trembled violently. She moved her lips, but for some reason, she ultimately said nothing.
“Sometimes I really feel that my life is quite pathetic. For the first ten years or so, I thought I owned the world. At that time, my parents loved each other, and I was the witness to their love, the product of their love. So even though my family was not rich, I never had to worry about food or clothing.”
As she said this, Mu Liangliang had a very complicated look in her eyes. She glanced at Mo Xiaoqing and said, "Once upon a time, I also had that clean and pure smile on your face, but all of that was shattered by those ruthless executioners. They took away my happiness, took away my innocence, and finally pushed me into an abyss."
This has left her struggling in the abyss to this day, unable to find a solution.
"You know what? The moment I saw you, I saw a reflection of my former self in you—that clean, pure version of myself, untouched by the filth of the world..."
"But I know I can never go back. It was them, it was them who drove my beloved parents to their deaths, pushed me into an abyss, and turned me into a monster I didn't even recognize!"
"Momo, to me, you are a beautiful thing within reach. There were many times when I wanted to completely destroy the clean and pure smile on your face because I was insanely jealous. Those nightmares that tormented me day and night, those executioners who stole my happiness, made me become a stranger to myself!"
"Momo, do you know? I'm no longer clean. Before I entered this circle, my body was incredibly filthy..."
Mo Xiaoqing looked solemn.
Actually, as early as when Mu Liangliang told her this story, she had already roughly guessed that Mu Liangliang was the protagonist.
