Chapter 758: 758, 【Memory 3】Cigarettes are Wonderful
Xiao Yebai didn’t say a word.
However, there was a chilling, aloof mist lingering on his handsome young face.
Mo Weiyi felt a little frightened and quickly added, “If you stay with me, I’ll sleep over, book my ticket to go home tomorrow, and pretend this never happened. I won’t tell my grandfather nor my parents. They won’t know I came to Seattle to find you.”
As she finished, she lowered her head to her meal.
Um…
This Italian pasta was just unbearable.
...
The noodles were unbearably stiff, as if undercooked, tasteless, and the meat sauce it came with wasn’t fresh.
Besides, there was nothing else but this bowl of pasta.
But there was no other option. After losing her wallet, it seemed Xiaobai was struggling financially, only managing to afford this small room and this bowl of pasta for her…
When she gets back home, she needs to get her dad to transfer more money for Xiaobai’s living expenses.
As Mo Weiyi ate, she thought about things and kept stealing glances at Xiao Yebai.
Threatening and enticing always proved effective.
After Xiao Yebai gave her a cold look, he got up, closed the door and returned to the room.
Mo Weiyi sighed a sigh of relief.
She noticed he took a lighter and a cigarette from his pocket and walked up to the window, pulling open the curtain and the window.
A chill wind promptly swept in from outside, ruffling his short black hair. He stood there, seemingly immune to the cold, prideful and alone, beginning to smoke.
Mo Weiyi frowned, “It’s too cold, close the window.”
Xiao Yebai didn’t respond.
Mo Weiyi finished the last bite of her pasta, walked up to it, stood on her tiptoes, and shut the window herself.
Then, she turned around, facing the handsome and indifferent youth. She gauged his thin-lipped face as he held a cigarette and his black and white cat-eyes gazed at her, full of confusion, “When did you start smoking?”
Xiao Yebai did not respond and just removed the cigarette from his mouth.
He exhaled a mouthful of smoke right onto her beautiful face.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Her eyes turned red from the smoke, and only after a few rounds of coughing did Mo Weiyi manage to get her voice back, “What are you doing?”
The reason why she fancied Xiao Yebai was because he was different from other boys.
On his first day in the Mo Family, he was in a white shirt with black trousers.
Although he was thin, and his clothes were plain, his skin was fair and he was handsome. His entire attire was neat and clean, with none of those messy smells.
Even during the hot weather, he somehow managed to stay cold, hardly breaking a sweat.
Most of the guards and servants in the Mo mansion exuded a faint smell of sweat, but Xiao Yebai didn’t at all.
Most boys of his age are stuck in a peculiar stage where pimples and acne are as constant as change, but Xiao Yebai was an anomaly on that front as well.
Consequently, Mo Weiyi had always believed that she had good taste, having found a perfect boyfriend. But never she expected that, just after a year in America, he had started smoking cigarettes.
Isn’t smoking something that only rogues and hoodlums do?
“It stinks.” Mo Weiyi made a disgusted face, almost as if she was about to pinch her nose, “Can you please not smoke? I don’t like it.”
Xiao Yebai looked at her quietly.
The fourteen-year-old princess, with her long black hair flowing down, was wearing a pink nightdress he had brought for her.
He had chosen the cheapest one, not paying attention to the pattern or the material. The dress, as simple as it was, looked wonderful on her.
She still resembled the pampered little princess, with her innocent face displaying a sense of legitimate arrogance.
His deep, peach blossom eyes suddenly dimmed. Xiao Yebai took the cigarette out of his mouth, saying in a low voice, “Cigarettes are good stuff, want to try?”
Mo Weiyi blinked and then looked at the cigarette.
The smell was choking, with thin streams of smoke drifting from its end. Xiao Yebai with his long and fair fingers, held the cigarette and extended it towards her…
“I don’t want to!” Mo Weiyi instantly replied.
Xiao Yebai suddenly curled up his lips. He suddenly raised one hand to grip her shoulder, while his other hand, holding the cigarette, moved towards her face.
“…”
The cigarette was shoved into her mouth.
Caught off guard, Mo Weiyi subconsciously wanted to spit the thing out, but she ended up inhaling a huge mouthful by accident.
A dense and harsh feeling filled her entire mouth and through her airway, it entered her nostrils and lungs.
“Cough, cough, cough… cough, cough, cough…”
Mo Weiyi was busy coughing, her eyes welling up, her nose running, and even her face flushed.
Xiao Yebai squinted his eyes. After a while, he took the cigarette back.
Mo Weiyi covered her throat, coughing for a while before relieving herself. Then, she murmured with a hoarse voice, “Xiaobai, you’re doing this on purpose to bully me!”
Xiao Yebai’s eyes were full of cold sarcasm, full of mockery, “That’s right, so don’t bother me and get lost tomorrow!”
After he finished, he turned around, stride off, and sat down on the single-seat sofa.
Mo Weiyi stood by the window-ledge, tears welling up in her eyes, feeling as if her worldview had just crumbled.

How could Xiaobai become like this?
If it weren’t for that familiar handsome face from her memory, she would’ve been unable to recognize him.
The room fell deathly silent.
Except for the girl’s occasional sobs.
Xiao Yebai took the last drag of his cigarette, stubbed out the remaining half in the ashtray, leaned his head back on the sofa, and closed his eyes.
Then, sounds of footsteps echoed lightly.
Followed by the faint sound of flowing water.
Xiao Yebai remained in the same position, eyes closed, drifting off to sleep, until….
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand.
“Ah!”
Mo Weiyi’s wrist was caught in his grip, and the pain almost brought her to tears.
Because she had just been crying, her eyes and nose were still red, and she was feeling wronged, “Xiaobai, what’s the matter? You hurt me.”
Xiao Yebai glanced at the towel in her hand, swung his arm, “How many times have I said, don’t touch me.”
Mo Weiyi pouted, hesitantly handed over the towel, “If you don’t want me to wipe, then you can do it yourself.”
Xiao Yebai didn’t take it, but just rested his head on the back of the sofa again and closed his eyes.
Mo Weiyi: “…”
After a while, she finally withdrew her hand.
Returning to the bathroom to hang up the towel, she came back to the room, saw Xiao Yebai resting his eyes and couldn’t help but suggest, “Xiaobai, wouldn’t you like to sleep on the bed?”
She glanced at the only single bed in the room.
Although it was a single bed, it was quite wide, and she was so slim, it should be entirely possible for two people to sleep on it.
“This bed is quite big, you can sleep on the outside, and I’ll sleep on the inside….”
“Shut up,” Xiao Yebai cut her off coldly.
Mo Weiyi pursed up her mouth.
She suddenly turned around, lifted the blanket and lay down by herself.
Humph.
Good intentions were met with ungratefulness!
She wouldn’t care anymore, let him freeze.
Mo Weiyi turned off the light and pulled the blanket over her.
She couldn’t help but start complaining again in her mind.
What kind of blanket is this, it feels damp, has a weird smell, the bed padding is so hard, the pillow isn’t soft at all…
But because she had been on a plane for more than a dozen hours, with frights and surprises along the way, and barely slept at all, plus now staying up so late, she fell deep asleep in less than a minute.
…
She woke up again to the sound of the strange noises.
She opened her eyes, and in the darkness, she called out somewhat dazedly, “Xiaobai.”
It should be coming from the next room over, it sounded extraordinarily harsh and creepy.
Mo Weiyi felt a little scared and hastily started calling out loudly, “Xiaobai, Xiaobai, Xiaobai, I’m scared…”
“Shut up!”
Mo Weiyi pursed her lips, looking aggrieved, “But the next room is too noisy, I’m scared…”
“…”
Xiao Yebai didn’t say a word.
In fact, it was also his first time at this hotel.
Although it was near his research institute, less than half a street away, he had often seen it when he went out on weekdays.
With these foreign open-minded concepts, let alone in the twenty-first century, young men and women from the school would meet here as soon as they hit up during day time.
It’s simply too common and frequent.
But he never would have imagined that the noise insulation here would be so terrible.
Yes.
It started even before 12 midnight.
And now, it’s already past 2 in the early morning.
Although Xiao Yebai was only 19, he was still much more mature than 14-year-old Mo Weiyi.
He also had a faint understanding of many things.
