At the Snowfield Manor, Bai Haoxue and Xi Wei chatted for half the day. Seeing it was getting late, Xi Wei decided not to disturb Bai Haoxue any longer.
"Haoxue, I’ll head back now. You should get so rest."
Bai Haoxue nodded, checking the ti. It really was late, and she couldn’t help but mutter, "Li Mingmo and Ji Hanyu went out drinking; they should be back soon."
"Li Mingmo is just no good!" Xi Wei remarked, "It would be best to send him back to B City soon, or he’ll corrupt your Ji Hanyu."
Bai Haoxue chuckled, "It takes two to tango. Even if he wanted to, Li Mingmo couldn’t drag Ji Hanyu out unless he wanted to go."
"Anyway, Li Mingmo’s just no good." For so reason, Xi Wei began to rant.
"You haven’t seen how he was before, all roguish and unruly, just like a punk.
He used to dine and dash often, specifically targeting places without surveillance to scam them.
Afterwards, he felt smug about it, thinking it was admirable, rather than shaful."
Bai Haoxue: "..."
Li Mingmo sure has a lot of shady history.
"Li Mingmo’s shady history is beyond description," Xi Wei said, getting emotional. "Good thing he joined the army, or he’d definitely have gone astray."
Bai Haoxue: "It’s not that serious, is it? I think Li Mingmo is quite upright."
"Haha..." Since it was Bai Haoxue, Xi Wei held nothing back, "You have no idea how downcast he was when Xiaoning was engaged to soone else.
Or rather, how excited he was, spending nights at clubs until dawn. He beca the ’King of the Nightclubs’.
He’s upright my foot..."
Xi Wei’s disdainful and contemptuous expression amused Bai Haoxue.
Xi Wei continued, "Do you know how outrageous Li Mingmo used to be? He was in nightclubs every night, mingling wildly with people, pole dancing, Latin dancing, in see-through outfits... just shy of stripping. He was as extravagant and flamboyant as one could be."
Bai Haoxue: "..."
Li Mingmo had this side to him as well.
Nowadays, looking at Li Mingmo, he exudes an aura of integrity and toughness. Although blessed with strikingly handso looks that could be described as demonic, he’s not effeminate at all.
Maybe it’s because of his long-term military service that his skin isn’t pale—it’s a healthy shade of wheat.
Bai Haoxue smiled and shook her head, "Yiyi, hearing you talk about it, I’m suddenly very curious about your past with Li Mingmo."
Since Li Mingmo was once such a person, compared to now, you could say he’s undergone a complete and drastic change.
What brought about such a change?
Is it the legendary first socialite of Imperial City, Lu Xiaoning? Or perhaps Xi Wei, the darling gem of B City’s richest family?
Xi Wei smiled wryly, "There’s really not much to say. Just like how long you’ve known Ji Hanyu, I’ve known Li Mingmo for just as long.
The first day Li Mingmo and Ji Hanyu escaped from the base, Ji Hanyu t you.
And I, t Li Mingmo."
Xi Wei didn’t say it was Li Mingmo who t her.
Because, in Xi Wei’s view, in love, she and Ji Hanyu are quite similar.
Both fell in love first, and in love, the first to fall is the one who loses.
However, even though Ji Hanyu’s love was painful, it was worthwhile, as Bai Haoxue truly loves him in return.
As for her, it’s not that Li Mingmo wronged her.
After all, her love was one-sided, and it ended before it even began...
