Chapter 39: The Past
Her first memory after she was six years old was a dark forest, an old man covered in blood carrying her young man walking in the endless night, and she was seriously injured by the sound of gunfire behind her.
In fact, the old man could completely leave Mu Lixue behind, although he didn't know why, but Mu Lixue could feel that the target of the group of black-clothed men with pistols behind her was her, but the old man didn't, the long-distance travel, and the dizziness on her head, made her fall into a coma.
When she woke up again, the sound of children frolicking around her made her have to suspect that the dark forest in her memory was just a dream, but the pain in her head told her that it was not a dream.
"Xiaoxue, welcome to our big family." Gentle voices surround my ears.
It's not the old man in my memory, but a very kind old woman.
The woman told her that the house in front of her would be her home, and that many companions would play with her.
She remembers the care and affection given to her by the orphanage.
She constantly hypnotized herself, don't be curious about her past, look forward, and then grow up and honor the dean's aunt.
However, the bad news came quickly, the dean's aunt contracted a serious illness and needed a large amount of surgery fees, although there were qualifications from the society every year, but the operation fees were still not enough, even if Mu Lixue went to work at that time, it was not enough, not to mention that she was not an adult.
So, she came to the casino, the paradise of money.
This is the only place that Mu Lixue can think of to make a lot of money in a short period of time.
It was here that she met Dai, a dangerous figure.
*Everyone in the room must be masked, which is a very strange rule, but it is a very convenient rule for Mu Lixue.
Although she was only fourteen years old at the time, she was still tall and masked, and her voice became very hoarse because of a cold during that time, so she successfully mixed into the casino with the attitude of giving it a try.
As she wished, she was born with the ability to perceive the feelings in people's eyes, and she was like a fish in water in the casino, and after a few games, she had almost raised enough money for the dean's aunt.
That's why she chose this casino.
Not only is it rich, but it won't easily check your identity.
She knew that she would accept it when she saw it, so when she won all the money from the dean's aunt, Mu Lixue chose to leave. But her smooth sailing luck made a few thugs red-eyed, but she had always shown herself in men's clothes, and then passed by them in women's clothes, but they didn't notice it in the slightest.
"Stinky boy, the casino is not for a hairy kid like you to enter."
"Don't look at your poor sour look, and you still want to go to the casino?"
“……”
From the side, the boy who looked like Mu Lixue was surrounded by several rude tall men in a corner outside the casino.
Seeing that it was a child of the same age as her, Mu Lixue suddenly became angry, and walked towards those people with a 'calm' step.
"What are you doing, why are you beating my son!" Mu Lixue lowered her voice, and her eyes under her hat looked sharply at the three men.
"Oops! The father of this stinky boy is here! Hurry up, hurry up, go away! The man who took the lead turned his head impatiently, but when he heard Mu Lixue claiming to be the boy's father, he didn't think about it, pulled the two people who were still in a daze, and ran away.
"Hey! Stranger, let's go! I won't be able to help you when those people come back. Mu Lixue saw that the success of those men was scared away by her, so she hurriedly pulled up the boys who were still sitting on the ground in a daze and ran.
This...... It was Mu Lixue's first meeting with this man.
After running for a long time, when she confirmed that no one was chasing after her, Mu Lixue stopped, and she bent down and took a big breath.
"You...... Who is it? The boy stopped and looked at the boy in front of him who was half a head shorter than the mask in front of him, and said strangely.
"Me? I am a living Lei Feng. Mu Lixue smiled, and at the same time secretly looked at the boy standing opposite him, his face was the same as Mu Lixue's mask that almost covered most of his face, his noble black hair was stained with a little dust, but it did not wear out the noble temperament around him, and a somewhat tattered black shirt was worn on him like a down-and-out aristocratic prince.
