Mom, I've said everything that needs to be said. It's only been a month. What can happen to us? The reason why I agreed to him was all because of a friend's request, so Mu Dongyang and I were both fake, just playing around and showing it to their parents. It's that simple
I knew she wouldn't believe it, but ever since Jin Xiaoji revealed what had happened, a faint disappointment began to appear on her mother's face. Her expression was like something fun had suddenly been lost, making people both angry and amused.
But I think that child is pretty good to you and looks good. Maybe they have already shown their true feelings towards you, but you haven't noticed it yourself. "Mom still didn't want to give up, and after pondering for a while, she put forward a new opinion.
But Xiaoji had already thought of a reason to persuade her and shrugged, saying, "Mom, he's a wealthy young master. What kind of girl have you never seen? Someone like me, without a family background, wealth, beauty, or a bad personality, why would he like me
That's possible! "This excuse is not bad, but when it comes to it, my mother actually rolled up her sleeves and sat on the sofa, giving a long speech.
How could our daughter be ugly? Your current appearance is only temporary, and after you turn sixteen, she will become her original appearance. Think about your parents' appearance. Those who are prettier than us will probably go to outer space to find them, so how could our child be ugly? You stinky girl, you're saying this to make me angry
Because I have never been good-looking since I was young, this has always been my mother's heartache. She always believed that it was a mutation in her and her father's genes that caused her daughter to become like this, so she waited for the day when she turned sixteen, hoping that her daughter would have a magnificent transformation from an ugly duckling to a swan. It is precisely because of this obsession that she has never let Xiaoji say she is ugly.
In fact, what parents think does not mean that their children are equally concerned. Jin Xiaoji has never cared about the issue of appearance. At most, her appearance is ordinary, far from ugly, and she can only walk on the street and grab a handful at most.
Unfortunately, my mother is used to seeing beautiful men and women, and she herself is an aging and stunning beauty, which is why she has such high expectations for herself. Please forgive her for using the term 'never die' to describe her mother. Due to the special circumstances of her family, her mother was already 110 years old when she gave birth to her, while her father was already over 200 years old.
Alright, I won't say anymore. Mom, even if I become a beauty in the future, people may not fall in love with me at first glance, right
She deliberately emphasized a 'future' and exaggerated the word 'big', with the aim of making her mother retreat and stop overthinking things. But little did she know that just as she finished speaking, her mother squeezed out a strange smile and let out a cold snort from her nose.
Actually, just having appearance is enough, but I know you don't believe it, but one thing my mom can tell you is that our family is also wealthy, powerful, and influential. In terms of status, we may not necessarily lose to him
Oh my god, don't use your otherworldly identity to suppress others, okay? My mother has always been an elder in another world, and the younger generation below has already spoiled her by bowing and kneeling down, but how can we compare to this side? Jin Xiaoji rolled her eyes secretly and decided not to talk to her about these things anymore.
Unexpectedly, when I was thinking about how to shift the topic elsewhere, my mother leaned in and said another mysterious sentence. With just one sentence, her calm heart suddenly lifted, almost losing control and escaping.
You keep denying it like this. Does it mean you already have someone you like in your heart? Is it that boy named Shi Jiu? I see you've been flirting with him all day, and it turns out you two have already fallen in love. "Mom's eyes lit up, but her expression was serious as she watched Xiao Ji say astonishing words word by word.
I said Jin Xiaoji, Mom really underestimated you. Who do you really like
Mom! You're talking nonsense again
Where are you talking nonsense? You're actually talking to your mother like this. Speak up, be honest and lenient, and be strict with resistance. Fortunately, I met you today. If your dad were here, those two children would be in trouble
Dad doesn't have wild thoughts. I don't like anyone. Mom, just spare me
Which eye did she see her and Shi Jiu's affectionate expression? How does she judge who she likes? It is said that she was already emotionally sluggish back then, how did she become an expert in such a short time?
Today, don't say that you completely disdain Shi Jiu. Even if you accidentally look at him, you will still glare angrily, which is also a matter of judgment!
Don't get too excited, don't get too excited. I didn't expect you to get excited too. Alright, Mom won't say anything, we both understand in our hearts
Seeing Jin Xiaoji so anxious that she could hardly catch her breath, Shi Yue furrowed her brow and smiled, then stood up.
Be good, Mom won't tease you anymore. Seeing that you've been frowning these days, Mom wants to tease you
It turned out to be a joke, but it was too scary. Xiao Ji wanted to say something more, but she was afraid that her mother would grab the topic and continue teasing her, so she could only move her lips and swallow it.
Seeing her not speaking, Shi Yue remained silent and first went back to her room, then changed into a new outfit before coming out. This outfit is very formal and beautiful. I have never seen her wear it before. Seeing that her dress is even more formal than going out in the morning, Little Ji suddenly felt a little puzzled.
Mom, why are you dressed like this
I have something to go out for now, and I don't know when I can come back. If you don't see me tonight, then I've already gone there
Mom, won't you accompany me anymore? "Little Ji didn't believe her and chased after her as soon as she said she would leave.
Mom really has some urgent matters to attend to. I'll tell you about it later. Don't worry, your dad will be back in a few days
Shi Yue just smiled and reached out to rub Jin Xiaoji's messy hair that had been blown away by the wind. Seeing that her face was better, she carefully reminded her, "Mom knows you will take care of yourself. It's your birthday in a month, so be careful when the time comes. If you have any problems, go to your dad first. Don't be afraid
Mom
Xiaoji's mouth twitched a few times, but she didn't say any words of comfort. Her sixteenth birthday was approaching, and facing an unknown fate, it was not true that she was not afraid. However, since it was a lie, it was better not to say it.
Becoming a demon is very simple. As soon as you close or open your eyes, it's gone
But as soon as I keep my eyes closed, it's gone
Silly child, just say stupid things. "Mom smiled helplessly, wanting to persuade her again, but turned into a sigh." Maybe it would have been better to tell you the truth earlier, but unfortunately I've been hiding it from you for so many years, and you're just like Mom's reaction back then. It's really similar
It seemed like she was lost in some kind of memory, and my mom was in a daze for a moment, but before Xiao Ji could sound a reminder, she had already regained her senses: "Alright, I really have to leave, be careful yourself
I know, go early and come back early
Since something is more important than being with her, it means that this matter must be done. Xiaoji calmly watched her mother leave until she walked away and slowly closed the door.
At this moment, Jin Xiaoji didn't know that once the door was closed, not only did they miss each other for months, but also the beginning of a huge storm. By the time they met again, their lives had undergone a dramatic change, and it was difficult to turn back the tide. The past could not be turned back.
