CHAPTER 473: CHAPTER 473: CAN SHE NEVER AGE...

The wind blew through the courtyard, filling it with the fragrance of roses.

After returning to her room, Su Ge quickly went into the bathroom to cleanse herself thoroughly.

Only after removing all the makeup did she realize that her normally fair face had turned completely red.

Thinking back to the scene just now, her face flushed even more.

Su Ge cradled her small face as she came out of the bathroom and sat on the bed, feeling utterly mortified.

Knowing she didn’t look good, why did she still go and provoke Chu Yihan?

It was simply humiliating herself...

Su Ge was so annoyed that she wanted to beat her chest and stomp her feet, and also wished she could find a crack to hide in.

Even in that situation, he could stop himself, how much disdain must he have for her face?

Su Ge admitted that she was deeply hurt.

Fortunately, she was not that ugly.

If she were really that ugly, would there be so many issues between her and Chu Yihan now?

They probably wouldn’t even have the chance to meet each other.

Even if there was a chance to meet, Chu Yihan, on seeing her for the first time, would definitely be like the Huo Family brothers, unwilling to take another glance out of disgust.

Thinking this, Su Ge felt even more dejected.

Is the face really that important?

Could it be that Chu Yihan just cares about her face?

Su Ge raised her hand and patted her flushed little face again.

Right now this face is still young and tender, still somewhat attractive.

But what about many years later, when this face is old and faded, would Chu Yihan not like her anymore?

The thought shocked Su Ge and she widened her eyes.

Very soon, her eyes began to redden.

He will surely despise her in the future...

Su Ge turned her head and buried it in the bedding, starting to sob quietly.

She didn’t want to be despised by him... What should she do...

What to do...

Can she never age...

...

"President Mo, your presence truly honors our Shen Family."

The moment Mo Xingyuan walked in, Mayor Shen coldly dropped those words.

With his back straight, he sat on the couch without giving an extra glance to Mo Xingyuan.

On the contrary, Mrs. Shen was somewhat courteous; seeing Mo Xingyuan sitting on the couch, she personally poured him a cup of tea, "Here, have some tea."

"Thank you." Mo Xingyuan gave Mrs. Shen a light thank you, then turned his head to Mayor Shen, "I am also saddened about Zhuyue’s situation."

His originally handsome face was now shadowed by stubble, less handsome but more mature, appearing much more weathered overall.

"Really?" For the first time, Mayor Shen glanced at him and scoffed, "Are you sad for Zhuyue, or for the person who harmed Zhuyue? Don’t you know that in your heart?"

Mo Xingyuan immediately lowered his eyelids, pondered for a moment before speaking, "Zhenzhen... it was unintentional."

"Unintentional? Ha ha ha." Mayor Shen laughed loudly, "That is the funniest joke I’ve heard in years."

Even Mrs. Shen couldn’t bear it any longer, "Xingyuan, you and Zhuyue have grown up together since childhood, now Zhuyue has been poisoned to such a state, yet you still speak for the one who harmed her? What does Zhuyue mean to you in your eyes? Don’t you have a shred of sympathy or pity for Zhuyue?"

"Madam, you misunderstand." Faced with the Shen family elder’s aggressive demeanour, Mo Xingyuan rarely kept his composure, "Zhenzhen was just confused for a moment; she didn’t intend to drug Zhuyue deliberately. She didn’t expect the situation to get so serious, and the drug she used was just a kind of mild sedative."
