Chapter 147 Mo Chen: X-ray Eyes and Photographic Memory?
March 21, 2023.
In a picturesque corner of Qingyun city, nestled beside a babbling water stream, a captivating scene unfolded. A youthful figure could be seen gallantly bearing the weight of another girl’s school bag.
These two individuals were no ordinary teenagers; they were high schoolers on the cusp of adulthood, both sharing the age of eighteen.
“Xiao’er, you can’t do this to me!” Mo Chen exclaimed in frustration, his face glistening with perspiration.
Turning around her slender frame, Wang Xiaoying looked back at him, effortlessly balancing herself on one leg. A playful glimmer danced in her eyes as she inquired, “What do you mean?”
As a gentle breeze brushed against her slightly hair, it carried with it a sense of ethereal beauty.
Yet, beneath this otherworldly allure, her youthful radiance remained intact, a timeless symbol of her innocence and spirit.
Each gesture, each movement, possessed a grace that could rival the elegant dance of willow branches, swaying in harmonious rhythm with the gentle breeze.
Beneath the gentle light of the sun, Wang Xiaoying revealed herself fully, a vision of delicate allure.
Her glossy brown hair cascaded in soft waves, framing a face blessed with porcelain-like features reminiscent of ancient goddesses. Her eyes, akin to pools of obsidian, shimmered with a curious blend of intelligence and mischief, sparkling like distant stars on a moonlit night.
At the age of eighteen, Wang Xiaoying bore the distinction of being the daughter of Wang Zheng, her father being the firstborn of the Wang Liang, patriach of Wang Family.
Wang Liang, the revered patriarch of the Wang family, may be battling the ravages of time, but his love for his granddaughter knows no bounds.
Meanwhile, Mo Chen, an ordinary-looking boy, is hardly the image of a prince charming. One can’t help but think, “A toad wants to eat a swan meat,” when witnessing the current scene.
Never in his wildest dreams would Mo Chen imagine that the otherworldly school goddess would ever fall into his arms.
However, everything changed a few weeks ago, when a mysterious incident bestowed upon him the extraordinary ability to see through objects and possess a photographic memory.
Armed with these extraordinary gifts, not only did Mo Chen amass fortune from casinos and stone gambling, but he also grew audacious enough to challenge the school belle.
Mo Chen made a audacious bet with Wang Xiaoying: if he obtained a perfect score on yesterday’s test, she would reward him with a kiss.
With bated breath, today’s results were unveiled, revealing Mo Chen’s resounding successβa perfect score.
Yet, despite this remarkable feat, the school belle shows no sign of surrender. She delights in this calculated game, unknowingly toying with him.
It’s as if she’s playing with an obedient puppy, completely oblivious to her own actions.
After seeing that Wang Xiaoying was pretending to be innocent and ignore him, Mo Chen couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
He exclaimed, “Xiao’er, don’t you dare forget about our bet! You promised to give me a kiss if I managed to score a perfect hundred on the test! Are you backing off now?”
Wang Xiaoying, mischievously sticking out her tongue, responded with a falsely innocent tone, “Did I really say that…?”
Mo Chen’s frustration intensified as he yelled, “Yes, you did!” Determined not to let her slip away, he raced after her as she nonchalantly turned around and continued walking.
Despite tirelessly attempting to persuade Wang Xiaoying, Mo Chen failed at every turn. Finally, he had to concede defeat.
Breathing heavily from the pursuit, he mustered the remaining courage to propose an alternate bet, “Xiao’er, how about we change the terms?”
Perked with curiosity, Wang Xiaoying paused her ice cream licking and looked at him with surprise. “Hm?”
A grin spread across Mo Chen’s face as he proposed, “Let’s make another Bet! If I can outshine your family in wealth and status before the start of the university, you will become my girlfriend!”
Wang Xiaoying squinted her eyes, slightly taken aback by Mo Chen’s audacity.
After a moment of contemplation, she couldn’t help but burst into giggles.
“Mo Chen, even if I entertain the idea that you could somehow make more money than my family in just a few months, why would I agree to become your girlfriend when we can’t even attend the same university?”
Deep down, she couldn’t fathom the possibility of Mo Chen achieving either feat.
She had always been at the top of their class, and with her flawless scores, she was bound to secure a spot in a prestigious university.
But what about Mo Chen?
His perfect test score seemed more like a fortunate accident.
Wasn’t he being overly arrogant to make such claims now?
Determined, Mo Chen gritted his teeth and declared, “It doesn’t matter! I will excel in the university exams as well! No matter which university you choose, I will choose the same!”
Wang Xiaoying’s mouth fell open in astonishment. “Oh, aren’t you just too arrogant? Well, in that case, I’ll choose the top university in the capital!”
Not one to shy away from a challenge, she decided to match his pride with her own boastfulness.
Finally, a sense of relief washed over Mo Chen as he replied, “Then I will choose the same university! … So, do you dare to bet with me?”
Wang Xiaoying furrowed her brows, a hint of defiance glimmering in her eyes. “Who fears whom? I dare to bet. But what if you lose?” she taunted, her voice laced with provocation.
Yet, deep in her heart, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret.
Although Mo Chen appeared unremarkable, his ordinary demeanor hardly captured Wang Xiaoying’s interest.
She yearned for someone who possessed a touch of handsomeness, a hint of charm.
This type of boy was not to her liking.
With a hint of anxiety, she pondered the consequences of losing.
Would she be unwittingly digging her own grave?
Breaking into a hearty laughter, Mo Chen boldly proclaimed, “If I lose, I shall willingly become your slave for one year!” πππ±πππ·π²xt.π¬πΆπ¦
Wang Xiaoying was taken aback, her surprise momentarily rendering her speechless. Then, a smirk graced her lips.
‘Too arrogant,’ she derisively cursed in the recesses of her heart, eagerly anticipating the opportunity to teach him a long-awaited lesson once he became her slave!
However, deep down, she found herself enjoying Mo Chen’s confidence and cherished their current interaction.
It was a refreshing change that brought her happiness.
Being bestowed with a special status, Wang Xiaoying rarely experienced being treated like a normal girl in school.
But for the past few weeks, it was Mo Chen who had started treating her differently, with genuine care and attention.
While other boys were intimidated by her background and kept their distance, Mo Chen remained unfazed by it all.
His unyielding spirit fascinated her.
At first, she was taken aback by his sudden transformation from an apparently ordinary boy, to current confident and arrogant Mo Chen.
But as their interactions became more frequent, she began to realize that this was not the same Mo Chen she had known before.
Now, a proud smile played at the corners of her lips as she anxiously awaited the outcome of their bet.
Little did she know, the future held a whirlwind of chaos for her, with an unexpected individual entering her small world.
