NOVEL NEXT Chapter 3: A face that deserves to be scratched
Mo Qiang turned to look at the source of the voice with a whirl of her feet, as soon as she turned to look at the woman who was standing behind her, she felt her mouth drop. She only heard about angels descending from the heavens and living on the surface of the earth but this was her first time seeing a living, breathing angel.
With her long silvery hair that was fluttering behind her and eyes that were the lightest shade of blue that had a bit of green in them, the woman was looking at her with a scowl on her face. Mo Qiang might have gotten to her knees and praised the woman for gracing her with her beauty but then she saw the numbers that were hovering over the head of the woman.
[ Favourability: -150]
Mo Qiang: "…." Now she was afraid to even show the back of her neck to this woman lest she snapped her neck.
" Mother has called you back home," said the woman who was standing in front of her, her lips still curled in a scowl as she stared her in the eyes. " She only said those words in anger, there was no need for you to stay out in the streets for an entire night."
" Mo Xifeng?" Mo Qiang tested as she looked at the woman with silvery hair who frowned at her when Mo Qiang called her by her name instead of a traitorous bitch.
"That's me," replied Mo Xifeng as she looked at Mo Qiang who was looking at her with part daze and part disbelief. Her brows furrowed even more as her gaze dropped to Mo Qiang's bare mouth and then she said, " Did you stay outside without your mask?"
Mo Qiang touched her dry lips which were chapped and felt rather rough when she touched them with her fingertips, she raised her head and looked at Mo Xifeng whose lips were covered with the mask that she was wearing on her mouth. Those lips were cherry red and looked rather kissable, even though she did not know what kind of appearance she had, Mo Qiang was certain that unless she had the appearance of the most beautiful woman on this planet, she will never be able to beat Mo Xifeng in terms of beauty!
" Stop dreaming," said a voice next to her ear as she turned to look at the squirrel with two small horns on top of her head and a pair of wings on her back. It looked like a badly mutilated flying squirrel since it was missing the cuteness of one.
" Hah?" The squirrel who was perched on her shoulder turned to look at her with an affronted look on her face as she said in a haughty voice that was similar to that of the little fairy, " I am cute from every angle! You might not know this but every form that this mighty one takes is considered to be cute!"
" And you even caught a pet?" Mo Qiang heard Mo Xifeng say as she turned to look at the woman who was now nursing her forehead as she heavily sighed, " Sister, you cannot even take care of yourself. How are you going to take care of that pet? Have you ever thought about what you are going to feed it when we don't have enough to eat ourselves?"
As the woman complained to Mo Qiang, the favourability on top of her fell to another point.
Mo Qiang felt like she was caught by the police at the wrong moment and in the wrong place. She was not the one who committed those atrocities towards Mo Xifeng but now she was the one whose mugshot was getting snapped. She stared at Mo Xifeng not knowing what to say or do, she simply opened her mouth and closed it again without saying anything.
Her behaviour caused Mo Xifeng to frown even further, she has known her sister for years and not once had she seen her sister stay this silent. Did she inhale too much poisonous gases while she was lying on the streets?
Mo Xifeng felt that her sister was simply too incapable but she was in the end her family which was why she took out an extra mask that she carried with herself lest the oxygen in the one that she was wearing ran out and threw it at Mo Qiang who caught it instinctively.
" Here you go," she said to Mo Qiang who was holding the mask in her hands looking at it dubiously. But when she saw that Mo Qiang was not wearing it and was only looking at it with a confused look on her face, Mo Xifeng couldn't stand it as she said, " What are you doing? Don't tell me that you forget to wear this in just one night?"
The thing was that Mo Qiang indeed had no idea how to wear this mask, she gained knowledge of the world and the family she has to stay with but other than that she did not have anything else in her head. It could be said that her brain was clearly free of any wrinkle when it came to the knowledge of this world.
She smiled at Mo Xifeng with an awkward expression but before she could say anything Mo Xifeng has already raised her fists and with a bang hit her across her face.
" Ow, what the hell was that for?" Mo Qiang who was punched in the face, looked at Mo Xifeng while covering the side of her face that was hit with her hand. She blinked her eyes in confusion and was surprised to see that Mo Xifeng was doing the same as well, " What are you confused for?!"
" I don't know," said Mo Xifeng with a startled look on her face as she closed and opened her fists as she looked at Mo Qiang. " I just thought that you were thinking of something evil when you smiled at me just now and my body …it moved on its own." She looked at Mo Qiang who was now nursing her jaw and then said, " I apologise, sister. "
Though she said that Mo Qiang could see that Mo Xifeng looked rather contented with the punch that she delivered just now.
Mo Qiang: "...." Just what kind of woman was this original owner?
