Chapter 357: Spring feelings

"I… I remember now, it was my boyfriend who sent me here!"

Thinking of Xiaozhi's performance yesterday, White's pretty face turned bright red, and countless chaotic thoughts flooded her mind—shame, sweetness… all kinds of feelings were there.

"Hmph! You bad guy, it was clearly you who got me drunk and then took advantage of me, you big bastard! I hate you to death!"

White cursed hatefully, then burst into a laugh, mocking herself, "I'm so stupid, how could he ever admit it!"

……

Xiaozhi didn't know that his actions yesterday had caused so many misunderstandings for White. At this moment, he had already arrived at Cloud Mist Mountain in the western part of Jiangnan Province.

Cloud Mist Mountain, as the name suggests, has towering and magnificent peaks, lush trees, and beautiful, pleasant scenery, which is why it is famous throughout China.

At the top of Cloud Mist Mountain stands a luxurious villa.

Inside the villa.

Xiaozhi and Liu Menglu were sitting on the sofa together, tasting tea.

Liu Menglu was wearing a black nightgown with a low neckline, and her fair, plump chest was on the verge of popping out.

Her face was flushed, and her gaze was evasive, looking like a ripe apple, appearing extremely charming.

"Xiaochen, I… I really didn't expect you to be able to find this place."

Liu Menglu looked at Xiaozhi, her eyes watery, filled with surprise and emotion, mixed with a rich sense of spring.

Xiaozhi coughed lightly, touched his nose, and said, "The reason I found this place is mainly because I was a bit curious as to why you suddenly changed your mind and chose to return to Huacheng with me. After all, according to what you said, your dream was to stay in the capital to develop and become an international movie star."

Hearing this, Liu Menglu's expression turned dim.

She looked out the window, remained silent for a long time, then sighed and said, "I won't hide it from you anymore. Actually, I wasn't born to my mother."

"Oh, so you're an illegitimate child? Then what about your mother? Where is she? Is she still traveling around the world?" Xiaozhi asked with some curiosity.

He still remembered that when he and Guo Deyuan met Liu Menglu at the hotel, Liu Menglu's parents were also present, but the two of them had reacted coldly, clearly not caring about her.

This was hardly surprising; they perhaps already had new wives and concubines, and Liu Menglu's existence would be an eyesore to anyone.

"Mm, my mother passed away," Liu Menglu nodded, her voice choked with sobs. "But my dad is still alive, and I also have a younger brother."

Xiaozhi was stunned; he hadn't expected that Liu Menglu's parents were actually siblings. But thinking about it, that made sense; if there was no blood relationship, Liu Menglu was so beautiful, her parents would be too biased.

He was a bit puzzled again and said, "Since your mother is no longer in this world, then you and your brother are dependent on each other. What kind of work does your father do? Why doesn't he look after you?"

These words, if heard by an outsider, would create false impressions such as abandoning his wife and daughter, or being snobbish.

But Xiaozhi was not an outsider; he only felt that Liu Menglu's father was a scumbag, being too cold and indifferent toward his own daughter.

Liu Menglu shook her head and said, "He is in financial investment and has real estate in the capital. As for why he doesn't look after me, I don't know either. My father and I basically don't contact each other except during holidays, and I don't like staying by his side; it always feels like I'm living under someone else's roof. He gives me money, and I just take it; I'm not short of money."

After saying this, she added, "However, if there is a chance, I am still willing to be filial to them."

"That's good," Xiaozhi nodded.

Although some people might feel that adoptive parents are closer, Xiaozhi was different; he felt that biological parents definitely loved their own flesh and blood more. ===== CHAPTER 358 =====
