Chapter 94: Convinced
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xiao Chen was familiar with the feeling of being alone and helpless, with no one to trust. Only loneliness and despair lingered in his heart. Xiao Chen never knew if he would survive to see the next day, nor did he understand why he had such a tragic childhood.
Xiao Chen then collected his thoughts and calmed his emotions. Although he was surprised to learn about Fang Liu’s experience, he only felt shocked for a short while. He quickly put his feelings aside.
After years of struggles, very few things could affect Xiao Chen’s emotions. He then continued to read about Fang Liu.
Seeing that there was such a small amount of information on Fang Liu, the secretary decided to include whatever photos she could find and attached them to the email.
When Xiao Chen clicked on the folder containing photos of Fang Liu, he saw that there were about a hundred pictures. These photos were found on the internet and Fang Liu’s social media.
Fang Liu looked young and innocent as if she had just graduated from university.
Her eyes were as clear as a river, with a hint of gentleness that could melt one’s heart. She looked fragile and timid, making others think she would be scared of her own shadow.
‘Fang Liu had also experienced a dark and miserable childhood, but why does she have such pure and innocent eyes?’
Xiao Chen felt a sense of doubt in his heart. The more he looked, the more he realized how different she was compared to himself.
Fang Liu’s smile was warm and bright, and her expression was lively. She was well-behaved and charming. She possessed the kind of beauty that could arouse a man’s primal instinct.
Even though Xiao Chen had seen thousands of beautiful women in his life, he could not help but look at Fang Liu’s photo for more than a minute.
In the last photo, he saw Fang Liu wearing a white dress and had a pair of large wings on her back. She was lying on the ground with her dress and wings stained with blood. The picture was hauntingly beautiful. There was a soul-stirring artistic value to the image on the screen.
Xiao Chen was stunned.
When Xiao Chen was studying abroad, he had decided to see a psychologist because of his past traumas. The psychologist had taught him how to express his emotions through art.
Xiao Chen later fell in love with the art of painting and photography. With Picasso’s strong exaggerations and abstractions as an inspiration, Xiao Chen’s images were bold in color and dramatic in style. People who had seen his paintings expressed that his pictures seemed to resemble the roar of an artistic and enigmatic soul.
His photographs were dark and monochromatic. The overall atmosphere leaned toward gloom and desolation.
Xiao Chen felt a strong sense of negativity toward human nature and his tragic upbringing. But he managed to turn them into artistic works of art with his natural talent.
When Xiao Chen saw this photo of Fang Liu, he became impressed by the picture’s intense beauty and emotional impact.
Xiao Chen looked at it for a long time before closing his laptop. Meanwhile, the sun had already risen. The warmth of the sunlight fell onto Xiao Chen’s face and body, yet his expression remained cold and gloomy. That was the temperament that he had honed for decades. It had long been integrated into his bones.
Xiao Chen had originally planned to visit the Mo family, but he had not paid much attention to this matter before. However, he suddenly became somewhat interested. He wondered if he could meet the woman he saw in the picture.
This was the first time in his life that he had developed a desire for a woman. It was a desire to get close to this person. It had nothing to do with lust, nor did it have any particular purpose.
After Fang Liu returned home, she had trouble sleeping for a few days.
The scene of the evil person attacking Mo Yu with a knife was probably too traumatizing for Fang Liu. Every night when she went to bed, this scene would replay in her mind. This made her feel weak, causing her to have trouble sleeping.
Mo Yu was anxious when he noticed this, so he called Chu Hao over and asked him to take a look.
Chu Hao checked Fang Liu’s pulse and said, “She’s traumatized. I have a new type of calming medicine that I recently developed. It’s just that this medicine contains an imported herb, and it has some hallucinogenic properties. But don’t worry. This hallucinogenic ingredient is safe and harmless to pregnant women. It will take effect the nerves in just a few moments, and she will return to normal when she wakes up the next day.”
Mo Yu couldn’t be bothered to listen to Chu Hao’s nonsense. He simply told him to prescribe the medicine and leave.
Chu Hao wasn’t even as anxious as Mo Yu. One would begin to guess whether or not Chu Hao was human, seeing as he barely had any reactions to Fang Liu’s situation.
Seeing that Mo Yu had chased Chu Hao away, Fang Liu looked reproachful. “Chu Hao came over to treat me out of kindness. Why were you so rude to him?”
“I wasn’t being rude.. Do you expect Chu Hao to move in with us if I were to be more polite to him? You should always speak more harshly toward a shameless person like Chu Hao.”
