"No…Brother Lingtan…It's not true…I wanted to tell you everything" Lu Lan immediately said and her tears finally betrayed her and rolling down from her eyes.
"Last…last month…When I found that my father is alive…I…I was so happy. I thought now finally I have my father…now…now…all children will play with me…I was so happy that I went to meet him at his house…However, when…I went to meet him…he told me that I am stigma [1] of his life…." Lee Xuiye said hurtfully.
"He said that he every day wishes that I should die…"
She was so hurt. She always had a wish to have a father and now when she knew that her father was in City B and he was alive. She couldn't believe how much happy she was…
When the first time, she asked her mother, where was her father? Then Lee Chang-You told her that he died…
Lee Xuiye was very upset. She always thought that she had done something wrong and as a punishment, God had taken away her father…
She felt envy of Mo Xingjuan, when she saw, how much Mo Mushan doted on Mo Xingjuan.
When she found that her father was alive, then she was very angry at her mother for lying to her for all these years and for not telling her anything about her father…
"Afterwards, my mother told me that I am his illegitimate daughter and he is ashamed of me that…that's why…she lied to me…" Lee Xue continued.
"Tell me…Brother Lingtan…How can I tell you all this…?." Lee Xuiye's heart was in pain. She covered her face with her both hands and cried…
She didn't expect that wish of her life would become a bitter pill for to swallow [2].
Mo Lingtan immediately strode towards her and hugged her tightly. His heart ached for her. He knew that Lee Xuiye would have been upset after knowing the truth about her father, but, he didn't expect that she was in so pain.
He wished to beat up that b**tard Wang Hui to the death.
"I…I think…Chi Rui'er was right to bully me…God had sent her to punish me…" Lee Xuiye said in a hoarse voice.
"No…Xuiye…It's not your fault…Don't blame yourself…".
How could she not blame herself, when she saw that her mother was working very hard only because to give her a good life?...
How could she not blame herself, when she saw, how much Lee Chang-You was in the stress?...
How could she not blame herself, when her father told her that she was a stigma of his life?...
She was regretting for having a life…
Because of her, no one was happy…
Mo Lingtan patted her backside and allowed her to cry her heart out. Even his shirt was soaked because of her tears still he didn't complain and let her cry.
After a while, she stopped. Mo Lingtan made her to sit on the bench and told her that whatever would happen, he would never break his friendship with her and always helped her.
However, Mo Lingtan didn't stop here. He also made Lee Xuiye to promise him that she would never break her friendship with his and always be with him.
Mo Lingtan always valued his promises and Lee Xuiye knew about it.
Afterwards, Mo Lingtan wasn't in the mood to attend the classes, so he made Lee Xuiye to skip her classes with him and took her out of the school through the back gate.
"Brother Lingtan…How do you know about this gate?" Lee Xuiye stopped in front of the gate and disbelievingly asked.
She knew that Mo Lingtan was the topper of the school, so she expected that he would have been attending all the classes. She never knew that Mo Lingtan would as other boys, so who skipped their classes and went outside with friends and having fun.
"Ohhh… Xuiye... don't be stupid and Let's go now… otherwise, if somebody found us, we will be in trouble" Mo Lingtan said in a low voice and held her hand and was dragging her out the gate.
However, Lee Xuiye tried to retreat her hand back and didn't moved from there and angrily said "Brother Lingtan. Don't call me stupid. Don't forget I have passed the toughest entrance exam of this school".
Mo Lingtan's annoyingly sighed and said "Okay…I won't call you stupid. Now, can my brainless friend come with me?"
"Okay… What…?...Wait…Brother Lingtan…."
Before Lee Xuiye could protest to call her indirectly stupid, Mo Lingtan already dragged her out of the gate".
