Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

Chapter 72 I Can Be Your Confessional
"My mother... passed away a long time ago."

Mo Xie looked at Tang Yue calmly and said in a flat tone.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yue's pupils contracted, and a hint of panic flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Her delicate body stiffened slightly, her jade hands clasped tightly together, appearing somewhat at a loss.

"I'm...I'm sorry, I didn't know...I didn't mean to ask..."

Mo Xie shook his head, smiled faintly, and said with relief.

"It's okay. My mother left when I was one year old. I've long since come to terms with it. Do you remember Aunt Wen, whom I took you to meet? She wanted to be my stepmother..."

Although that's what she said, Tang Yue keenly noticed the dimness in Mo Xie's eyes.

Mo Xie drank the red wine in her glass in one gulp and then poured herself another glass.

"Didn't you say yesterday that you were curious about my past? I can tell you, do you want to hear it?"

Tang Yue was taken aback, then nodded.

Taking a sip of red wine and gazing into Tang Yue's eyes, Mo Xie slowly spoke.

“My mother was not in good health and passed away a year after giving birth to my brother and me.”

“My family was not well-off at that time. Almost all the money we had was spent on my mother’s treatment, and we could only live in a small house.”

As Mo Xie spoke, she gradually drifted into her memories, as if she had returned to her childhood.

"Later, my sister joined the family. Although life may not have been great at that time, in my opinion, that period was definitely the most memorable time of my life, carefree."

Tang Yue saw a smile appear on Mo Xie's lips, a smile different from the ones she usually saw; it was a genuine expression of joy and happiness from the bottom of her heart.

"When I was twelve years old, you should have heard that I had a conflict with the Mu family."

“My family was bullied by the Mu family. At that time, I vowed that I would never let my family suffer any harm again, that no one would use their power to suppress us again, and that no one would think we were easy to bully.”

Mo Xie clenched her fist and then relaxed it, finished the glass of red wine again, and exhaled deeply.

He wasn't a very good drinker; after downing two large glasses, a hint of intoxication appeared in his eyes.

He poured himself another glass, shrugged, and said...

"Now... this is what you see now."

After hearing this, Tang Yue pursed her red lips, feeling quite uncomfortable.

The boss of Chenxi, as known to the world, appears mysterious and glamorous.

But who knows that he is just a teenager, a child who needs comfort?

His dedication to becoming a big star and a big boss was pure.

He simply did it for his family, not wanting them to be oppressed anymore.

Tang Yue really wanted to go up to him, hug him, and comfort him.

She reached out her jade-like hand and grasped Mo Xie's hand, which was resting on the dining table, and said softly.

"You must be very tired..."

Mo Xie shook his head, then nodded.

"Indeed, the pressure was like two mountains, constantly trying to break me down. Sometimes I wavered, but if I could do it all over again... I still wouldn't regret the decision I made!"

He picked up the wine bottle to pour himself another glass, but Tang Yue stopped him and shook her head at him.

"You can't drink anymore, you'll get drunk!"

Mo Xie didn't persist, but instead looked at Tang Yue with satisfaction.

"Uh, sorry, I said a lot of things that made me feel bad..."

"No, if you feel better if you talk about it, I'm willing to be a listener."

Tang Yue shook her head and smiled gently.

"Stop talking about me, what are your plans for summer vacation?"

Mo Xie shook her head, changed the subject, and tried to clear her head.

"Me? I've already reached the mid-level full cultivation, so the higher-ups told me to go back this summer to prepare for breaking through to the high-level."

When Tang Yue talked about breaking through to a higher level, she became very excited, and her pretty face turned rosy.

"Is that so? So next time we meet, you'll be a high-level mage. Congratulations!"

Upon learning that Tang Yue was about to break through to the advanced level, Mo Xie immediately offered his congratulations.

What are your plans for summer vacation?

Tang Yue smiled faintly and asked.

"I plan to visit other cities during the summer vacation to relax."

"You're probably going on a business trip, right?" Mo Xie was taken aback. How did she know? She hadn't said anything!
"There's something called a woman's sixth sense... I don't think someone as busy as you would want to take a break. Remember to take care of yourself when you go out, and don't overwork yourself."

Tang Yue blinked mysteriously and said with concern.

The two had almost finished eating, so they packed up and prepared to leave.

The Western restaurant provides a designated driver service to prevent customers from drinking alcohol, which is a very thoughtful touch.

Tang Yue had just had a few drinks, so she hired a designated driver to take them home.

The scenery outside the car window receded, and the car was very quiet.

Moye's hat brim was pulled low, almost covering half of her face, as she leaned against the corner with her eyes closed, resting.

Tang Yue looked out the window without making a sound.

The car pulled up at the entrance of the residential area, and the designated driver glanced at the rearview mirror and said...

"Ms. Tang, we've arrived."

Tang Yue turned to look at Mo Xie and nodded to the designated driver.

"Okay, could you please step out for a moment? I need to talk to my brother about something."

The driver didn't say anything, quickly opened the car door, and got out.

Mo Xie took off her hat and looked at Tang Yue with a puzzled expression.

"Is there anything you need to tell me...?"

Before Mo Xie could finish speaking, a pair of hands grabbed his head, pulled him into their arms, and gave him a [face wash].

"Well……"

Mo Xie's eyes widened, his whole body stiffened, not expecting Tang Yue to do this.

A delicate fragrance lingered around my nose; it wasn't a particular perfume, but rather her natural body scent.

Mo Xie's hands hung in mid-air, unsure of where to put them.

Tang Yue held him in her arms, her jade-like hand stroking his head, radiating maternal glow.

“Moye, there are some things you don’t have to bear alone. If you have any worries, you can talk to me. I can be your confidant.”

"If you don't mind, you can call me 'sister' in private from now on, either Sister Yue or Sister Tang Yue is fine."

Moye's body trembled suddenly, then returned to calm.

He buried his face in Tang Yue's arms and asked in a muffled voice.

"Why are you?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yue rubbed Mo Xie's head and said with a smile.

"There are no so many questions. I am your teacher, and it is the teacher's duty to help students."

Mo Xie broke free from her embrace, placed his hands on Tang Yue's smooth, fragrant shoulders, and gazed at her with starlight in his eyes.

He pulled Tang Yue into his arms with a forceful pull.

He nestled against her slender waist, his chin pressed against her fair neck, inhaling the fragrance of her hair.

"Thank you... Sister Tang Yue."

At the moment those words were spoken, a hidden barrier, a subtle distance, existed between the two.

At this moment, it was completely eliminated.

"Ah."

Tang Yue patted Mo Xie on the back and responded.

After a long time, the two separated.

Mo Xie turned her head away shyly, not daring to meet Tang Yue's gaze.

This is the first time she's seen me like this, and all I want to do now is leave.

"Well, I'll be going now. Get some rest when you get back."

After Mo Xie finished speaking, she hurriedly opened the car door and left.

Tang Yue watched Mo Xie's departing figure and gave him a bright smile.

Like a rose blooming in the night, stunning the world with its breathtaking beauty, yet sadly, no one appreciates it.

Let me clarify: the female leads have feelings for Mo Xie, but that's all. A romantic storyline is necessary; otherwise, what's the difference between this and a harem plot? Other female leads who appear later will also have significant screen time, and their relationships will be built gradually. Some people say Tang Yue has too much screen time, which is a bit annoying, but without more screen time, Mo Xie's treatment of the female leads seems casual, and those fleeting relationships don't feel solid. This is just my opinion. Mu Ningxue and Ye Xinxia have a certain emotional foundation, and other female leads might experience something with Mo Xie that leads to feelings, but a female lead like Tang Yue, who has no emotional foundation and whose relationship has been uneventful, cannot be directly won over. There will be female leads like this appearing later.
