Chapter 56 - Strange Behavior!

  After a while, at the gate of Magic City University, Chen Mo was quietly waiting for Du Zihang to come, and suddenly he smelled a familiar smell.

  He turned his head immediately.

  He saw Mu Xiyue in pink walking towards him.

  "Xiaoyue, do you have classes this morning?" Chen Mo greeted with a smile.

  "Yes, I have a law class in the morning." Mu Xiyue asked with a smile, "What are you doing standing at the school gate? Aren't you going to eat?"

  "I have an appointment with someone, and there should be food there." Chen Mo smiled.

  "Oh." Hearing that Chen Mo had a place to eat, Mu Xiyue's face flashed with disappointment, "Then I'll go first."

  As he spoke, Chen Mo saw that Mu Xiyue was carrying the bag from last time.

  This made Chen Mo curious. Last time, this bag contained some old girls' clothes. He didn't know why Mu Xiyue was carrying these.

  He immediately activated his perspective glasses and looked at Mu Xiyue's backpack. He saw that Mu Xiyue still had those things in her bag. Not only that, she even brought daily items such as toothbrushes, cups, and towels in her backpack. This made Chen Mo a little confused.

  He immediately activated his mind reading and looked at Mu Xiyue and said, "Xiaoyue, is it convenient for me to ask you a question?"

  Hearing that Chen Mo took the initiative to talk to her, Mu Xiyue was still very happy. She smiled and said, "What's the question?"

  "That..." Chen Mo was thinking about the wording, afraid of asking the wrong question, but after thinking about it, he could only ask directly, "It's just that I saw some daily clothes in your bag last time. You brought this bag again this time. Is there any reason that caused you to carry these things with you all the time?"

  Chen Mo felt that something was wrong.

  As Chen Mo asked this, the joy that had just appeared on Mu Xiyue's face immediately dimmed, and she didn't know how to start for a while.

  But Chen Mo had already known the general situation through mind reading.

  "What should I do? How should I tell Chen Mo? Mengyao and her family are powerful. If Chen Mo knew that they usually bullied me, he is so kind-hearted. If he cares about me as much as before, will he go to Mengyao and her to argue? If so, won't Chen Mo be implicated? After all, he is a child from an ordinary family like me. How can he fight against these famous families? Forget it. Don't tell him about this.

  Don't let him be implicated by me."

  Mu Xiyue struggled with her thoughts. It seemed that there were a lot of things, but her thoughts were sorted out almost instantly.

  She immediately squeezed out a smile and said, "I'm fine, I just like to carry things with me."

  "Then I didn't see you like this when you were at work before." Chen Mo said calmly.

  As soon as these words came out, Mu Xiyue's words choked. After pausing for a few seconds, she said, "My boss doesn't allow me to bring these things to work."

  Seeing that Mu Xiyue couldn't say it, Chen Mo didn't ask again, but since he knew about this matter, it was naturally impossible for him to sit idly by.

  "Are you still living on campus? Or rent a house outside the campus? There is a very good landlord where I live now. If the house is rented to college students, the fee is very cheap. Do you want to go and have a look?"

  Upon hearing this, Mu Xiyue smiled bitterly and shook her head and said, "I don't have money to rent a house outside. My mother used to support my family to make money, but recently my mother collapsed from exhaustion. The family has no source of income. I have to pay for my mother's medical treatment. I have to send part of the money I earn from working back home."

  Upon hearing this, Chen Mo remembered that he had heard Mu Xiyue say this when they were chatting about their families at work.

  Her father had a problem with the protective device provided by the engineering party during a project, which caused him to fall to his death in an accident. However, the engineering party was powerful and dragged on for a long time without giving the due compensation.

  The poor people didn't have any good way to deal with them. In the end, they could only take the 30,000 yuan hush money they gave them.

  If they didn't take the 30,000 yuan, they might not even give the 30,000 yuan.   

  Mu Xiyue's mother had no other choice. There was a daughter and a son in the family who were both in school. The most important labor force had died accidentally. The funeral had to be held and the children's lives had to be solved. They simply did not have the time and energy to sue such a large organization. She had

  no choice but to accept 30,000 yuan to settle the matter.

  But this 30,000 yuan could not support it for long, and Mu Xiyue's mother had to carry the banner of supporting the family alone.

  As a result, she was so tired that she fell down directly.

  Now, the money that Mu Xiyue and her brother earned from working and studying together was not enough to treat their mother.

  Not to mention renting a house outside the school.

  Every meal they have now is solved by the work meals provided by the workplace.

  The rich have wine and meat, but there are frozen bones on the road.

  Chen Mo thought of the sky-high price meal worth 100,000 yuan that he and Liu Qinlan had the day before yesterday.

  The difference in life between people is sometimes really a world of difference.

  It would be fine if he didn't know the situation at Mu Xiyue's home. Now that he knew, Chen Mo was naturally prepared to take care of it.

  Not to mention that Mu Xiyue is a ninth-level demon, Chen Mo needs to find her to brush rewards.

  Even if Mu Xiyue is just an ordinary identity, Chen Mo will not sit idly by based on the friendship they already have.

  Facing strangers, Chen Mo can sometimes be indifferent, but facing familiar people, he is still more caring.

  Otherwise, Mu Xiyue would not say in her heart that he is a warm-hearted person when she thinks of Chen Mo.

  "I'll help you with the rent, mainly whether you want to move out?"

  Mu Xiyue naturally thought about it, but she didn't want to add burden to Chen Mo. After all, in her impression, Chen Mo is also a part-time worker, and he doesn't have much money.

  How can I take advantage of him?

  So she immediately shook her head and said, "No, I live quite well in the school dormitory." She

  said this, but when she mentioned the school dormitory, she couldn't help but recall the scene of being bullied by Chu Mengyao and others in the school dormitory.

  If it was just a physical attack, she could actually bear it, and it would only hurt for a few days at most.

  But Chu Mengyao and her gang seemed to have found her weakness. Knowing that physical attacks would not have the effect of bullying her, they began to destroy her property.

  Mu Xiyue, who was originally penniless, would never replace anything unless it was completely unusable.

  But Chu Mengyao and her gang destroyed her things every other day, and even cut up her clothes, just to disgust her. Seeing her miserable appearance of crying over these damaged things, they felt more comfortable and refreshed than beating Mu Xiyue directly. Mu Xiyue

  had always been unable to understand one thing in her heart, why they lived so much happier than herself, but still tortured herself who had such an unfortunate life.

  With her simple values, she could not figure out the reason no matter how hard she tried.
