Jing MO asked Xia Xin earnestly, “Do you remember promising me that you’d buy my album if I released one in the future?”
Xia Xin’s face immediately turned red. Of course, she remembered the promise she had made, but she never thought that young man would actually become a celebrity, let alone that he would be Jing Mo.
‘No wonder on the day Jing MO had helped bandage my wound, he had asked if I had ever bought his album. It all made sense now.’ Xia Xin thought.
Xia Xin changed the subject, “Don’t worry. When I go back, I’ll buy all the albums you’ve released so far. That way, I’ll be keeping my promise.”
Jing MO raised an eyebrow and smirked. He said, “Okay.”

Jing MO turned his head to Xia Xin and asked, “What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?”
Xia Xin said, “I don’t know if there is now, but there used to be. And your face was covered in blood from being beaten up!”
Jing MO pretended to think deeply and teased, “So, since you’ve seen me at my worst and know all my embarrassing stories, should I kill you to keep you quiet?”
Quick to appease Jing MO, Xia Xin said, “My bad. I’ll act like I lost my memory. Nothing from before ever happened. Spare me, sir.”
Jing MO chuckled and said, “I don’t want you to forget. I want you to remember forever. You’re probably the only person left from that part of my past.” Xia Xin pondered for a moment and chose not to argue this time.
At that time, Jing MO was a lonely individual. Xia Xin had never seen such a profound aura in someone before. It even made the fourteen-year-old Xia Xin feel a twinge of heartache. So, the current Jing MO was definitely better.
Later that night, Xia Xin lay on her bed, staring at the starry sky outside the window. So much had happened recently, and she had planned to sort everything out in her mind, but she couldn’t help but be fixated on one thing— the encounter with Jing MO ten years ago.
On that day, Xia Xin’s after-school tutoring had ended and it was already dark. Her parents had some sudden business to attend to at her grandmother’s house, so they let Xia Xin go home by herself.
Xia Xin was the leader in her neighborhood, and all the kids listened to her obediently. She was also very familiar with the area, so her father was at ease letting her go home alone.
Humming a tune, Xia Xin skipped along the road, but suddenly she saw a tall, handsome young man running towards her. She stared in surprise, rooted to the spot.
The young man was good-looking in every way, except his face was bruised with patches of blue and purple and smeared with blood.
Xia Xin kept her eyes fixed on the approaching figure, completely forgetting to feel scared as she watched him.
As the young man ran past Xia Xin, she noticed that people were chasing after him.
Jing Mo even took a moment during his run to warn Xia Xin, “Kid, move out of the way.”
But at that moment, Xia Xin didn’t know where she found the courage. She dared to step directly between Jing MO and the group of people, yelling loudly, “Stop right there! ”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJing MO was taken aback by the audacity of this young girl’s actions. He didn’t quite understand what she was trying to do.
The alley was quite dark, and there was only a dim light above the heads of the group. So, they couldn’t see the little girl clearly, except Jing MO, who saw her trembling little figure.
Jing MO was intrigued by the meddlesome little girl and ended up standing at a distance, watching her act foolish.
Terrified, Xia Xin’s tears were flowing freely. She held back her sobs and cried out, “I’ve already called the police. They’ll be here soon. M-my dad is a cop! I suggest you leave now!”
To Jing Mo t s surprise, the group of people was actually scared off by a little girl. Maybe they had considered that if her dad really was a cop, it could cause them more trouble, so they retreated.
Once everyone was gone, Xia Xin made sure they were far away before allowing herself to cry loudly.
Jing MO, who was standing behind Xia Xin, was startled. He asked, “Why are you crying?”
Sniffling, Xia Xin replied, “Because I was scared! There were so many of them, and I couldn’t beat them!”
Jing MO was amused by the cuteness of this little girl. He revealed a row of neat teeth and asked, “If you were scared, why did you step forward?”
Honesty in her eyes, Xia Xin said, “But they were going to hurt you, and I wanted to protect you!”
At that moment, Jing MO found Xia Xin was truly a silly girl..
