Chapter 79
Chu Mo clenched her fists and stood up. "If you say so, then... then I'll try. For the students. "
"Hey, believe in yourself a little, Sister Chu Mo. You can do it!" Lin Qingwan smiled.
"But... " Chu Mo looked at Ye Fei, "I have something I want you to help me with too. "
"I'll do what I can to help, Professor Chu. " After a moment, he added, "As long as Manager Lin agrees. "
"Ye Fei, what do you mean? Chu Mo is my sister and her problem is my problem. Of course you should help her," Lin Qingwan hurriedly said.
Chu Mo thought for a while, and said, "It's really not that big an issue. I have a student who hasn't been to cla.s.s recently and I just wanted to have someone go to her home to check up on her. "
Lin Qingwan rolled her eyes. "Haha, is that your problem? Your students are adults, not middle-schoolers. College kids skip cla.s.s all the time. "
"But this student is from a poor family. Under the circ.u.mstances, I am afraid that she will do something she will regret," Chu Mo said. "I'd go there myself, but... I was almost robbed a few days ago, and now I am afraid to go alone, so I wanted to have someone to accompany me. "
Lin Qingwan thought about it. "All right, Ye Fei, tomorrow morning I will go to the office for a meeting, and you can go with Chu Mo to her student's home in the meantime, okay?"
"No problem!" Ye Fei nodded.
They returned to the apartment.
The next morning, Ye Fei dropped Lin Qingwan off at the company offices and then drove off with Chu Mo to deal with her student.
The southern suburbs of Shanghai weren't in great condition. Disgusting sewage flowed in the streets.
Under Chu Mo's guidance, Ye Fei drove Lin Qingwan's BMW over the muddy roads deep into the slum before stopping behind an old shack.
The driver's door opened and Ye Fei got off the car. He looked around at the mountains of rubbish and frowned at the foul odors. "No wonder you were afraid to come to this place. "
Where there was light, there was darkness.
Shanghai was a world-renowned international metropolis with many tall, gleaming skysc.r.a.pers, but the suburbs were a nasty trash heap inhabited by the poor of the city.
When Chu Mo got out of the car, she immediately felt sick and squatted down to retch into her handkerchief. This environment soon in stark contrast to the well-scrubbed cla.s.srooms and lawns of Shanghai University.
After a while, she stood up and hoa.r.s.ely whispered, "Alright, let's go in. "
They turned to the shack, which didn't even have a door in the entrance.
Walking inside, Ye Fei saw an old woman lying on a plank bed in the corner of the room and a long-haired girl with her back to him kneeling beside her, feeding her from the black bowl in her hands.
Chu Mo was relieved.
The girl was called Zhong Mei. As an art student, she wasn't strictly one of Chu Mo's students, but because of her poor background, Chu Mo wanted to help her.
It seemed that Zhong Mei hadn't been to cla.s.s recently
Chu Mo was about to say h.e.l.lo to Zhong Mei when a dirty little girl, eleven or twelve years old, brushed past her from behind, holding up a yellow paper bag and excitedly shouting "Sister, I've bought some traditional medicine!"
"Xiao-Ling, where did you get the money to buy these drugs? Were you out begging again? I told you, there are bad people out there who s.n.a.t.c.h away children! I'll think of a way to treat your grandmother's illness. "
Zhong Mei's voice was melodious and moving like birdsong, and her simple dress did little to disguise her lithe figure. Ye Fei couldn't help but sketch out the image of a beautiful woman in his mind.
" I will not go begging anymore, Sister," Xiao-Ling stuck out her tongue. Then, she pointed to Ye Fei and Chu Mo, "Sister, are these two here for you? They've been standing behind you for a long time. "
Zhong Mei's head immediately snapped around to look at the entrance.
When Ye Fei saw her face, he found himself greatly disappointed.
She had a big, black birthmark covering half her face and stretching down her neck. Even worse, coa.r.s.e, black hairs were growing out of it.
"d.a.m.n… Poor girl," Ye Fei muttered in his heart.
Looking at her from the back, anyone would undoubtedly think she was an extremely beautiful girl, rivaling even Liu Manman or Chu Mo. Unfortunately, her face was so disfigured it could only be described as "cruel". The contrast between her back and her front was so great Ye Fei couldn't help but wonder what she had done in a past life to deserve this. Chapter 79 The Ugly Girl... Chu Mo clenched her fists and stood up. If you say so, then. then Ill try. For the students. Hey, believe in yourself a little, Sister Chu Mo. You can do it! Lin Qingwan smiled. But.
