Chapter 382: 382, Xiaobai’s Female Research Institute Classmate
Mo Weiyi asked him again, “Then why did you go to the club alone with her?” “How did you know?” Xiao Yebai still had a casual tone.
“Wanwan told me.”
Xiao Yebai opened his lips, “There was a little trouble in her family, and I just casually helped out. We happened to run into each other at the clubhouse.” “Such a coincidence?” Mo Weiyi always felt that something was off, “I’ve never seen you so eager to help others before.”
Although it was not very nice of her to describe her husband as a “cold-blooded animal”, it wasn’t far from the truth.
Xiao Yebai looked at her, his voice was monotonous, “I just happened to be there.1‘
In other words, he would not have helped otherwise.
Mo Weiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
“Have you eaten?” Xiao Yebai suddenly asked.
“No, I’ve been waiting for you.” Mo Weiyi hugged his arm, her voice returning to its usual soft and coquettish tone, “I asked Aunt Zhou to make your favorite ginseng chicken soup.”
“Hmmm.”
**
The dining room.
Soon the table was filled with steaming hot dishes.
Xiao Yebai glanced at it, almost all of them being his favorites.
“We haven’t had dinner together for a while.” Mo Weiyi couldn’t resist muttering.
Since she began to work hard at her studies, Xiao Yebai was out early and returned late every day. He was barely seen during the day, and they only had a short time together at night when they shared the bed.
Sometimes he returned too late, and Mo Weiyi would already be falling asleep. When she woke up the next day, she was the only one left on the bed.
“It’s busy at the end of the year, with the company’s anniversary coming up.”
“Then you should drink more soup to replenish your energy.” Mo Weiyi, like a virtuous wife, took a spoon and helped him with the chicken soup.
The two of them chatted as they ate.
Until a maid’s voice suddenly came from outside, “Miss Chen, the princess is still eating, please wait.”
Since she was a tutor and only a year older than Mo Weiyi, and was also hardworking and thrifty, Aunt Zhou was quite polite to her.
Mo Weiyi immediately put down her chopsticks, “Xiaobai, the teacher is here, I’m going to class.”
Xiao Yebai responded with a simple “hmm”.
When Mo Weiyi reached the living room, Chen Jin was just getting up, but she heard Mo Weiyi say, “Teacher Chen, please wait for me, I left my textbooks upstairs.”
“Okay.”
When Mo Weiyi ran upstairs, Chen Jin sat back down on the sofa.
The living room was very quiet.
She looked up at the several decorative paintings on the wall, which seemed to have been newly changed today. The backgrounds were different, but the protagonist in each was invariably a girl in a school uniform.
One was of a girl deep in thought, leaning alone on a desk in the classroom.
One was of a girl standing at the classroom door with a violin case on her back.
Another one was of a girl walking on the street, her head lowered as she held an umbrella.
The lines in these paintings were simple and the colors were light, but somehow, looking at them gave Chen Jin a sense of sadness…
Footsteps rang out at that moment.
Chen Jin quickly pulled her gaze away as a tall, straight figure appeared before her eyes.
The man was wearing a dark wool sweater and sharp-cut black trousers.
He had fair skin, a high, straight nose with a pair of glasses with thin black frames perched on it. When he spotted her, his face was expressionless, even his eyes were deep and cold, giving off an aura of aloofness.
Chen Jin stood up subconsciously and opened her mouth, “Hello…”
Xiao Yebai nodded slightly, still expressionless, and stepped up to the second floor without another word.
Chen Jin stood in place, only realizing after the man’s figure had vanished that she had been so nervous she had held her breath.
“Teacher Chen!”
Mo Weiyi’s crisp voice echoed from the staircase.
She held a large stack of textbooks, her fluffy curls swaying with her movement. A sweet smile on her cute little face as she approached, she said, “Let’s go, we can start now.”
“…Okay.”
Chen Jin came back to her senses, picked up her bag and walked towards the study. However, she couldn’t resist taking one last glance over her shoulder.
Mo Weiyi was in her junior year of college. Before, she thought Mo Weiyi was a simple female college student like herself, who was privileged enough to be born beautiful and into a wealthy family.
But she never expected that she was actually already married.
Every time she came here to tutor, outside of Mo Weiyi and the maids, she never saw what her husband looked like.
Did she envision a middle-aged, lecherous man?
Rich, balding, sporting a large belly, and with a lewd smile on his face.
Because of this, Chen Jin once felt sorry for Mo Weiyi.
There were no wedding photos on the first floor of the villa, and no photos in the study. It wasn’t until today when she saw Xiao Yebai for the first time that she realized how wrong she was.
“Teacher Chen.”
Mo Weiyi quickly noticed that Chen Jin seemed distracted today, “What’s wrong with you? Is there something bothering you?”
Chen Jin quickly shook her head, “No.”
Mo Weiyi tilted her head, her delicate eyebrows lightly furrowed under the bright light of the study room, looking incredibly innocent, “If you have something going on, just let me know ahead of time. You don’t have to come every day.”
Chen Jin’s tutoring schedule was originally set for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
But having just taken the Level 4. English test a couple of days ago had dealt Mo Weiyi a huge blow. With her current English foundation, it seemed like a pipe dream to rank among the top ten in her class within a month.
So, she negotiated with Zhong Kai to see if Chen Jin could come over every night. In addition to paying the hourly tutoring fee, she would pay an extra fifty percent.
Chen Jin readily agreed, which is why weekend tutoring was happening.
“Okay.” Chen Jin smiled, shy and introverted.
Looking at Chen Jin’s face, Mo Weiyi suddenly coughed twice and asked in a soft and ambiguous tone, “Teacher Chen, do you have a boyfriend?”
Chen Jin’s face turned red, and she quickly denied it, “No.”
Mo Weiyi smiled, “You’re so cute, how can you not have a boyfriend?”
Seeing Chen Jin’s face growing redder, she couldn’t help but pry into her life further, “You’ve never had a boyfriend before?”
Chen Jin:”…”
“You’re a year older than me. You really never had a boyfriend?” Mo Weiyi exclaimed as if she’d just discovered a new world.
Chen Jin felt extremely embarrassed.
She wasn’t good at discussing such personal matters.
Mo Weiyi, with her chin propped on her hands, looked perplexed, “Why wouldn’t you date?”
Chen Jin picked up the cup from the table, took a sip to compose herself, and then calmly said, “I just took the IELTS, and I plan to go abroad right after the New Year.”
“So, you’re short on time.” Mo Weiyi chirped cheerfully, “That’s why I say it’s important to seize your feelings. Look at me. I’ve been in love with Xiaobai since I was ten. There’s no escaping it now.”
“Xiaobai?”
“Yeah, that’s my husband. You must have seen him earlier, right?”
“Uh…” Chen Jin was a little surprised.
Xiaobai?
This name… why does it sound like… a pet’s name?
“Don’t be scared, my husband might come off as cold, but he’s not a bad person.” Thinking that Chen Jin might be scared, Mo Weiyi quickly tried to reassure her, “He’s kind-hearted and loves to help others.”
“Oh.” Chen Jin nodded blankly.
Halfway through their eight o’clock tutoring session, they were interrupted by a knock on the study room door.
The person who entered was Aunt Zhou, “Princess.”
“What is it?”
Aunt Zhou fumbled for words, “Mr. Xiao’s sister is here.”
Xiao Zhiwei?
Mo Weiyi immediately knit her eyebrows, “Where is she?”
“She said that Mr. Xiao won’t answer her calls.” Aunt Zhou looked worried, “I didn’t dare disturb Mr. Xiao, but she’s been ringing the doorbell for half an hour now…”
As soon as Aunt Zhou finished speaking, Mo Weiyi heard a round of incessant ringing coming from outside.
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
Wasn’t this woman supposed to have returned to Tongcheng?
Why does she keep showing up in Nancheng like a lingering ghost?
And making a ruckus here in the middle of the night is just too much!
She no longer felt like tutoring, and got up, “That’s enough for today, Teacher Chen.”
“Okay.” Chen Jin also picked up her things and got ready to leave.
“Aunt Zhou.” Mo Weiyi commanded, “Let her in.”
She was curious to see just what this woman was up to this time!
“As you wish, princess.”
**
Having put on her coat, Chen Jin came outside to find the driver already waiting by the car.
This job wasn’t bad, with good pay and benefits.
Because Chen Jin’s tutoring sessions ended at 9 pm, Mo Weiyi worried about her safety returning home so late. So she arranged for a driver to take Chen Jin home.
As Chen Jin left in the car, she looked through the window to see a young woman entering the villa’s gate.
She had short black hair and wore a blank expression, her thin black clothes giving her a somewhat gloomy appearance.
The light grazed past, illuminating her face.
Chen Jin was shocked.
What kind of look was that?
It was filled with bitterness, malice, jealousy, and hatred.
It was simply terrifying..
