Chapter 157 A MAN OF WORD PART 5
Xue Lin"s words were sharp and merciless. She left no room for Alex. Alex didn"t like her from the start. When he saw that she not only interrupted his time with Miss Su Xi but was also trying to ruin his image, the blue vein appeared on his forehead.
"What do you think you are doing?" He could barely speak as he was fuming in rage.
The beautiful lady named Miss Su Xi was puzzled too. She wasn"t crying anymore after hearing Xue Lin"s words. She wiped her tears and looked at Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin. Since she never met this person, she asked Alex in a confused voice, "Alex, who is this guy?"
Before Alex opened his mouth, Xue Lin bowed respectfully and said, "Pardon my rudeness. My name is Mo Xuan. I"m a new member of this host club. Women call me "the doctor of broken hearts" and men call me "an eyesore"."
"Pfft!" Despite being upset, Miss Su Xi couldn"t help but laugh. "Ahaha, I didn"t think there would be another host joining the club. I"m sorry you had to see something so unsightly on your first day. I wish I could be more presentable."
Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin took her hand and said desperately, "My princess, you don"t need to worry about your appearance in front of me. I"m more into your inner beauty. Things like appearance don"t bother me even a tiny bit. If it wasn"t for your heartbroken confession, I wouldn"t have been drawn to you."
"!!!" Alex"s jaw almost dropped as he saw Xue Lin"s acting. He wanted to break her slender neck and bite it viciously.
Miss Su Xi said, "Mo Xuan, you are good. Why don"t you sit down? I want to know more about you." She took the gla.s.s of alcohol she ordered and was about to drink it.
However, when the gla.s.s touched her lips, Xue Lin stopped her. "When someone is broken, they need to share their burden, not drowning them into alcohol. Since I"m known as the doctor of broken hearts, I want to mend your beautiful, pure heart. Will you allow me, my princess?" She took Miss Su Xi"s hand tenderly and kissed it on top of her knuckles.
Miss Su Xi looked at her with expectations. "Y-you will mend my heart? How? Even if you are able to do it, it will be torn by my family. They don"t care about me at all!"
Xue Lin said, "My princess, please don"t be like this. When I first saw you, I felt as if I wanted to cradle you and show you the world. If I myself could think in that way, your family members who raised you couldn"t possibly be thinking of throwing you away. As wise men say, there is always an explanation behind everything. So, please trust me that I"ll heal you, and in return why don"t you tell me who tore your beautiful yet fragile heart?"
Miss Su Xi was drawn into Xue Lin"s pair of grey eyes. "Mo Xuan, will you really bother listening to my story?"
"I can give eternity for you, my princess," Xue Lin spoke sincerely. She gazed deeply at Miss Su Xi"s eyes making her heart flutter.
Miss Su Xi"s eyes filled with tears. She described her situation, "I"m the youngest in my family. My father has a large business company. He often stays out of the house because of business. If he ever comes home from abroad, he will give me a present and that"s it. He won"t even ask me how I"m doing or if I"m healthy. He directly asks about my test result and piano lessons. He scolds me if I don"t get the result he expects. Even my mother looks at me disapprovingly. My mother is the second wife of my father. His previous wife died after giving birth to my half-brother. My half-brother is a quiet person. He always looks angry. Whenever I try getting close to him, he glares at me and doesn"t talk much. But, I"ve seen him talking just fine with my mother. I really think he hates me. I grew up alone with nanny"s care. And, my mother; she is a beautiful lady and usually stays busy with shopping and beauty parlor. If she is home, she will busy herself with cooking. Well, the only time she is at home when my father is also at home. She doesn"t pay attention to me at all. My house is so big but I"m all alone. No one wants me. They all hate me."
Miss Su Xi was a beautiful lady but she had immaturity written all over her face. Xue Lin could easily tell where the problem was.
Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin took Miss Su Xi"s hands and said in a gentle voice, "It must be hard for you, isn"t it?"
Her gentle voice was like throwing salt in the wounds. Miss Su Xi"s eyes filled with tears again and she started to cry.
The customers around them started to look at her curiously and one of them tried to console her. "It"s all right, don"t cry anymore."
"It"s sad. Why are your family members so unreasonable?"
"Don"t cry for those family members. They don"t deserve it."
Xue Lin sighed and said, "Calm down ladies. I believe that your beautiful lips can only produce sweet words that can melt my heart right away. I want all words locked inside my chest. I don"t want anyone else to hear." She gave the ladies a mischievous wink. She did it to make sure that no one would take her seriously and they would know that she was only joking.
"Oh my!" Some of them exclaimed. They liked this "new face" mischievous boy.
"Who is he?"
"He is the new host."
"Maybe I should check him out."
Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin didn"t pay attention to them. She was busy with Miss Su Xi. She patted the vulnerable lady"s head and said, "Cry; cry to your heart"s content. Don"t worry about anything else right now. Lessen your pain. You will feel better."
