Chapter Sixteen: My Sister Has Arrived

  After that, the days were spent studying in a sloppy and careless manner, day by day, with an absent-minded heart, and his complexion became increasingly poor, and he gradually became thinner.

  "Xiao Xiao, this state of yours won't do! Do you still know how to smile?" The captain ran into Mo Xiao Xiao on the road, and Mo Xiao Xiao had a dispirited look, which made the captain feel quite helpless.

  "Squad leader, is there any instruction?" Mo Xiao hesitated and smiled awkwardly, seemingly unsure of how to react.

  "Can I only find you when I have orders? Let me see how the members of this club, which they take pride in, are now torturing themselves!" The captain frowned, somewhat angry.

  "I'm fine, Captain." Mo Xiao's eyes flickered with loss and sadness.

  "It's easy to say that everything is fine, anyone can say it, but you have to put it into action! Look at your current state, can you fully devote yourself to studying? Are you doing justice to yourself? Mo Xiao Xiao! We've always admired you, don't disappoint us on this matter, okay?" The team leader saw Mo Xiao Xiao's stubbornness and the small flame in his heart suddenly burst forth.

  "Thank you, Captain. I won't let you down." Mo Xiao raised his head and looked at the anxious-looking captain, smiling faintly as he spoke.

  "Alright, don't force yourself too much, just go with the flow. Some things will always pass with time, and time is the best medicine. You lost your boyfriend, but you still have us friends." The team leader pulled out some snacks he had bought for her from his bag and stuffed them into her hands, and Mo Xiao's tears flowed again.

  "You're so big, don't cry at every turn!" The team leader, a big old man, of course wouldn't carry tissues with him, he just patted Mo Xiao's shoulder and turned to leave.

  Mo Xiao carried a big bag of snacks and slowly walked to the classroom. In the past, when she had nothing to do, Mo Xiao was either buried in the library or hidden in the classroom. After falling in love, most of her time was spent online. Now, she should return to her previous way of life.

  The classroom was unusually quiet on weekends, and everyone was either holed up in their dorms or out shopping and having fun. Students like Mo Xiao were a rare breed in the academy.

  I opened the book, but couldn't read a single word. My mind was in disarray, and I felt dizzy. I didn't know what I was thinking about. I just couldn't calm down. Maybe she had changed, become someone she herself no longer recognized. The old her wouldn't have been so indecisive.

  "What's wrong with me? It was just an online romance, what can't I let go of? Heaven, what's wrong with me?" Mo Xiao Xiao asked the sky in silence, her eyes blurry with tears again.

  Since the breakup, Mo Xiao has been crying every day and sleeping poorly at night. Every time it's quiet at night, she has nightmares one after another. In front of people, she always pretends to be nonchalant, but when she is alone, tears always overwhelm her.

  Mo Xiao had called Yang Yanjie, but every time he didn't answer. Mo Xiao couldn't help but smile wryly to herself - a man who wouldn't even let her hear his voice?

  Moyu spent the whole morning in class, but she didn't take in a single word, breaking her record for the lowest learning efficiency and hitting rock bottom.

  "I won't be in touch with you anymore, hope you don't mind. If there's anyone to blame, it's because we didn't get together from the start..."

  Mo Xiao's phone rang, after waking up from the wine, Mo Xiao changed the ringtone to this one, thinking that she would no longer be in contact with him, but how much she hoped to have news from Yang Yanjie.

  "Meng Jie, is there something?" Mo Xiao Xiao tried her best to make her tone sound cheerful, not letting her family know that she was feeling down.

  "Of course there's something! Come pick me up now, I'm at the entrance of your school." Meng Jie's tone wasn't very good, she sounded quite irritable.

  Mo Xiao was shocked, taking a whole minute to digest her sister's words. How did she end up at the school gate? Shaking her head, Mo Xiao sprinted towards the school entrance with 800-meter dash speed and found her cousin indeed there.

  "Sister, how did you come?" Mo Xiao Xiao stiffly forced a smile on her face, pretending to be happy, she didn't want to worry her sister.

  "Don't laugh if you don't want to, do you know that your current appearance is not even as good-looking as crying? Look at your eyes, they're like they've been smoked with incense. If you want me to feel at ease, then honestly tell me everything!" Meng Jie glared at Mo Xiao Xiao with a look of disappointment and frustration.

  "Sister..." As soon as Mo Xuanxuan heard her sister's words, a belly full of grievances surged up to his heart, and suddenly he felt a burning pain in his chest, so painful that he couldn't breathe.

  "Alright, alright, go find a place to cry, it's too embarrassing to do it at the entrance!" Meng Jie patted her sister's back and said with a sigh of relief.

  Miao Miao's older cousin, Zhu Xiangmeng, is three years older than her and has already graduated from university and started working. She is the daughter of Miao Miao's aunt's family. The Miao family is considered a large family in the local area, although they are not particularly prominent, but the family is still harmonious. The children of this generation get along quite well, most of them being only children, so their relationships with each other are especially close.

  Zhu Xiang Meng is very caring towards her younger brother and sister, but she doesn't pay much attention to Mo Xiao Xiao. The reason is simple: Mo Xiao Xiao is the pride of the entire Mo family, and in recent years, she hasn't failed to bring glory to the Mo family. As a result, there are many people who care about Mo Xiao Xiao, so Zhu Xiang Meng feels that having one more or less person paying attention to her doesn't make much difference. Usually, apart from chatting and eating together, Zhu Xiang Meng rarely contacts Mo Xiao Xiao, but now something has happened.

  After listening to Mo Xiao's words, Zhu Xiang Meng felt that the world had become absurd. Her own intelligent and precious little sister actually believed in online romance and got hurt so deeply! The anger in her heart suddenly erupted like a volcano!

  "Mo Xiao, your sister's ability is not bad! No one scolds you, and you feel itchy in your heart, right? Have you been having a fever that has burned out your brain all these years?! Such a simple and obvious thing, how can't you see through it after so long?! What exactly have you been doing?! Looking at your results, they don't seem like something an idiot could achieve! But I always feel like your IQ and EQ have dropped to a whole new level, it's simply describable as negative infinity!!"

  You believe whatever others say, don't you? I even said I'm going to be the next UN Secretary-General and you believed me, didn't you? You dare not say you didn't believe it or I'll beat you to death! But when I say something, you don't believe it. If you dare say you do believe it, I'll kick you to death! China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, can I be elected? It's the same logic! It doesn't make sense and it's not reasonable! Anyone with a bit of brain can figure it out, why can't you? Have you read too many books and become stupid? Don't you have any basic reasoning skills left? Has your thinking ability disappeared?

  "I'm speechless! Who did you learn this from? I need to pay my respects, brainwashing can really achieve this level of skill, your mastery is indeed extraordinary! Marx has been popular in our country for so many years, not everyone is a believer, but you're so stubborn to this extent, I've truly opened my eyes!"

  Sister Zhu's words were not ordinary sharp, but this was not over yet. Sister Zhu still felt that she had not vented enough and thought that her sister was in love with a classmate who had broken up with her, so she was heartbroken and made a big fuss for half a day because of an imaginary person she had never met! Is this something ordinary people can do?

  Zhu's sister couldn't understand, it was just an online romance, did she have to make herself so miserable? This didn't seem like the style of a Mo family member. In her memory, Mo Xiao had always been someone who kept her promises and handled things with ease, taking care of things that adults couldn't even do. So why was this small matter tormenting her into such a state now?
