Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

Chapter 67 Be a Stranger

Mu Ningxue stood less than half a meter away from Mo Xie, quietly observing his face.

They just looked at each other without saying a word.

For a moment, silence fell over the room.

Mu Ningxue felt a mix of emotions. She wondered when it had become such a luxury to be able to see the other person up close.

Sometimes I would take some time, disguised, to sneak a peek at his concert.

He was dazzling on stage, the lights shining on his handsome face.

That confident and sunny demeanor constantly touches the hearts of young girls.

Once, Mu Ningxue mustered up her courage and pretended to be a fan to take a photo with Mo Xie.

Fortunately, Mo Xie didn't recognize her, and she successfully got a photo and autograph.

At that moment, she was overjoyed and excited.

I couldn't even sleep that night while glued to my phone.

Because Moye was the only warm light in his cold darkness.

Quietly admiring her flawless appearance, Mu Ningxue was lost in memories.

After nearly a minute, Mo Xie could no longer bear that aggressive gaze and broke the silence first.

"Is there something you wanted to ask me to come out with?"

Mo Xie's words pulled Mu Ningxue out of her memories.

She shook her head, pursed her lips, and slowly began to speak.

"I didn't come to you for anything, I just... just wanted to have a chat with you. You... have changed a lot."

Mo Xie shrugged and said calmly.

People change, including you, don't they?

Mu Ningxue nodded, took a step back, and bent down under Mo Xie's shocked gaze.

"Moye, I apologize for the foolish mistakes I made that caused trouble for your family. I don't ask for your forgiveness, I just hope you can accept my apology."

Mu Ningxue bowed ninety degrees and spoke sincerely.

Her long silver hair fell down, obscuring her expression.

Mo Xie was taken aback at first, then frowned.

“Your dad already apologized this morning, so you don’t need to do that.”

“It’s different. That was my dad apologizing, but this time it’s me apologizing.”

"There's no need, you should get up now."

"If you don't accept it, I'll keep bending over."

Mu Ningxue's persistence left Mo Xie helpless, and he sighed softly.

"Alright, I accept your apology and I forgive you. Is that alright?"

Mu Ningxue straightened up, her beautiful eyes fixed on Mo Xie with a resentful look.

His words just now were clearly perfunctory, even though he had been so serious.

But this is for the best, so that the two of them won't be at each other's throats after just meeting and exchanging a few words.

"Now that you've apologized, if you have nothing else to do, I'll be leaving."

Seeing this, Mo Xie finished speaking and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that Mo Xie was about to leave, Mu Ningxue hurriedly called out to him, stopping him.

"Ok?"

Moye stood still, not moving, quietly waiting for the afternoon.

"Can we... still be friends? At least... don't become strangers, okay?"

Mu Ningxue asked softly, her beautiful eyes carefully observing Mo Xie's expression.

After listening, Mo Xie looked up at the starry sky and exhaled.

"Friend...no need, let bygones be bygones. It's better to be strangers from now on."

He lowered his head, smiled with relief, and nodded to Mu Ningxue.

"Go home early. It's not safe for a girl to be out alone at night. I'm leaving now."

This time, she was truly gone; Mo Xie did not look back.

Before he could go far, hurried footsteps sounded from behind, growing louder as they approached. Suddenly, a pair of slender arms wrapped around Mo Xie's waist from behind, preventing him from taking another step.

Her graceful body pressed against his back, and a soft touch came from behind, stirring his heart.

Mu Ningxue's pretty face was pressed against Mo Xie's firm back as she kept calling his name.

"Xiao Xie, don't go...please don't go...I did do something wrong, I don't ask for your forgiveness, but...but please don't become strangers, okay?"

Mu Ningxue pleaded in a low, humble voice, her tone even carrying a barely perceptible hint of a sob.

Mo Xie's body trembled. This was the second time in her memory that Mu Ningxue had been so humble; the first time was when she was twelve years old.

Recalling the scene from that night, his emotions became somewhat unstable, especially since the culprit was standing behind him, hugging him.

But reason prevailed, and he wouldn't let the past cloud his judgment.

"Please have some self-respect, let go, it's pointless."

Mu Ningxue's delicate body trembled as well, and she tightened her grip even more.

"You won't even call me by my name?"

She was met only with endless silence...

Mu Ningxue gritted her teeth and continued.

"Didn't you promise me before? You promised you would cure my illness. You made that promise yourself. Have you forgotten?"

After Mu Ningxue mentioned it, Mo Xie recalled the promise he had made.

He knew he could never make such a promise now, but when he said it, they hadn't broken off their relationship, so he genuinely wanted to help Mu Ningxue. But now…

I thought that after that incident, I would never have any contact with Mu Ningxue again. She was like a brilliant shooting star that streaked across my life, a fleeting moment of beauty before disappearing without a trace. But I never imagined...

"Ugh."

Mo Xie shook his head bitterly, turned around, placed his hands on Mu Ningxue's fragrant shoulders, and created some distance between them.

Although she didn't cry, there were already some bloodshot spots in her beautiful eyes.

Mo Xie straightened his expression and said, word by word.

"I keep my word. Since I've made a promise, I will definitely fulfill it. But if I fulfill my promise, I hope..."

He didn't continue speaking; he had already said all that, and he believed Mu Ningxue understood what he meant.

Mu Ningxue stared into Mo Xie's deep, captivating eyes, and as their eyes met, she slowly nodded.

"Okay, I'll wait!"

Mo Xie stopped talking and walked out of the park.

Upstairs in the villa, in Ye Xinxia's room.

Behind the window, Ye Xinxia put down her binoculars, glanced indifferently in the direction of the park, and then drew the curtains.

Back home, Mo Xie sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the television.

"Brother Moye, where did you go just now?"

Ye Xinxia pushed the wheelchair over and asked with a smile.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just..."

Mo Xie recounted what had happened. He had nothing to hide from Ye Xinxia, ​​after all, she was his sister.

After Mo Xie explained, a sharp glint flashed in Ye Xinxia's beautiful eyes, but she hid it well.

“Xinxia, ​​if you are still in contact with her, I don’t want your friendship to break down because of your brother.”

Ye Xinxia shook her head. She sat on the sofa, nestled in Mo Xie's arms, hugged his waist, and rested her pretty face against his strong chest.

"No, Xinxia will always be with Brother Moxie."

Inhaling Ye Xinxia's fragrance, Mo Xie realized that he felt at peace holding his younger sister, though he didn't know when it had started.

After a brief moment of tenderness, Mo Xie went upstairs to rest.

As soon as Mo Xie went upstairs, Ye Xinxia's gentle expression immediately changed.

Hmph, trying to stall for time this way? How naive!

After hearing Mo Xie's words, she immediately realized Mu Ningxue's true purpose, and her eyes were full of disdain.

Mu Ningxue, you won't succeed...

Mu Ningxue's delivery might be a little stiff here, but it will get much better later on.
