MLROCSHR Chapter 75
by Volare“I… I’ve met my White Moonlight.”
“What?” Qi Luzhi raised an eyebrow.
Wei Xueming has fallen for another girl? Is that supposed to be something rare?
Seeing the looks of disdain on Qi Luzhi and Lian Xun’s faces, Wei Xueming grew anxious. “This time is different, this time it’s really different.”
Lian Xun scoffed, “Isn’t that what you always say?”
“This time it’s truly different.”
Wei Xueming lowered his eyes, his expression serious as never before.
*
A weekend two weeks ago.
The entrance of a bustling shopping mall in the city center was teeming with people.
“Get lost, you Scumbag!” A bright and beautiful woman with a high ponytail and a dark leather skirt flung off a man’s hand, angrily turning to walk away.
“Don’t, baby, there’s really nothing between me and her, I just had a drink with her. Really, I’m not lying.”
The man hurried after her, his playful smile and flamboyant outfit unmistakable: it was the playboy version of Wei Xueming.
“Heh–” The girl seemed to be amused by his anger. She sized Wei Xueming up and down, took a deep breath, and started cursing!
“Do you think my brain is just for decoration? People have already shoved photos of you two kissing in my face! If I believed you again, I might as well go see a psychiatrist for the mentally challenged!”
“Okay, you still say you’re not lying to me? Then swear ‘If I ever lie to you again, may my whole family die.'”
“I swear, if I ever lie to you again, may my whole family die!”
Rumble–
A dull thunderclap in the clear sky.
Both of them thought they had misheard and looked up at the sky.
“Haha, look, even God can’t wait to strike you dead with lightning.” The girl’s words were full of sarcasm. “With your time management skills, Luo Zhixiang would have to hand you his business card and beg you to teach him. I’m not playing with you anymore.”
“Good! Bye!”
“Oh, no, good! Never! See! You!”
The girl gave Wei Xueming a disgusted look, walking away hastily as if shaking off something incredibly disgusting.
Wei Xueming stood there stunned for a long time, then looked up at the sky again, the sky was clear, and white clouds were floating.
So where did that thunder come from just now?
“Hey, are you okay?” Wei Xueming pointed at the sky and cursed in a low voice, “If you’re so capable, really punish me!”
After waiting for a while, the sky was silent. Wei Xueming really suspected that the thunder just now was an auditory hallucination.
But clearly, they both heard it…
He was in a bad mood, so he drove to the beach to relax. The gentle sea breeze blew by, taking away the summer heat, leaving only a refreshing feeling.
“Hey, I’ll ask those two CEOs out for a drink tonight.”
Wei Xueming kicked the sand as he walked forward, suddenly kicking a wooden frame.
“Crash–”
The frame fell to the ground. Wei Xueming raised his head in panic and apologized repeatedly, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
He had kicked over an easel with a freshly painted seascape. Because of his impact, the last stroke of the signature at the bottom went off the paper.
“I’m sorry, I ruined your painting. How about I compensate you? How much do you want?”
Wei Xueming gentlemanly picked up the things on the ground for the owner of the easel. Looking up, he saw a gentle girl in a light blue dress smiling slightly, like a mermaid princess who secretly came ashore, instantly hitting his heart.
“It’s okay, I’ll give you this painting.”
The girl nonchalantly packed up the easel and turned to leave.
The corners of her skirt fluttered, her hair was raised, brushing across Wei Xueming’s face, and the remaining weak fragrance was like the most bewitching drug, fixing him in place.
When he came back to his senses, the girl had already walked away. He looked down at the painting in his hand, his heart fluttering.
He took the painting home.
He thought it was just a little holiday interlude, but unexpectedly, every time he went home, he would inexplicably go to see the painting, and the figure of the mermaid girl would appear in his mind.
He went to that beach every day after get off work, but he never saw the girl again.
He searched online for the name signed on the painting, but found nothing.
He went to the bar to relax as usual, but he could no longer arouse any interest in alcohol and beauties.
He gradually realized…
He was done for.
His retribution, perhaps, had really come!

“I really fell in love with her, but I don’t even know her name, where she is, what to do? Do you have any way to help me find her?”
Wei Xueming took out his phone, opened his album, and showed it to Qi Luzhi and Lian Xun.
“It’s this painting, she painted it, I’ve always kept it on my phone.”
Lian Xun leaned in and looked closely, his eyes falling on the signature.
This name… where have I seen it before?
Lian Xun thought hard for a long time, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Qi Luzhi, “Isn’t this… isn’t this…!”
The two exchanged glances, and Qi Luzhi nodded slightly.
That’s right, that was An Jinnan’s signature. They had seen it at the art exhibition last time.
However, An Jinnan’s art exhibition was only open to internal invitees, and her paintings were extremely well-protected, so it was normal that Wei Xueming couldn’t find them.
Lian Xun’s eyes twitched. What was going on?
Wei Xueming’s eyes moved back and forth between the two, “What’s with your reaction? Don’t tell me, you know the owner of this painting?”
Lian Xun looked at Qi Luzhi with great embarrassment, then at Wei Xueming, who was full of expectations, not knowing whether to say it or not.
“I guess you could say we know her…” Qi Luzhi slowly opened his mouth.
“Really?” Wei Xueming jumped up and grabbed Qi Luzhi’s hand, his eyes lit up, “You really know her? Tell me who she is? Where does she live? Is she single? She…”
“Okay, okay, let go first.” Lian Xun snatched Qi Luzhi from Wei Xueming’s hand and let them both sit down first.
“I knew I was right to come to you, you’re really lucky for me, brother. For the rest of my life, I will definitely worship you every day!” Wei Xueming was visibly happy, showering Qi Luzhi with rainbow farts.
“Stop it.” Qi Luzhi slapped away Wei Xueming’s outstretched hand.
“Then, can you, help me pursue her?” Wei Xueming was a little embarrassed, “Oh, you also know, with my previous methods, I’m afraid I’ll scare people away as soon as I make a move.”
He was used to the extravagant nightlife. The so-called girlfriends in the past were just a casual question after getting drunk, and the other party casually agreed and they were together. When the hormones disappeared and returned to reality, they naturally broke up hastily.
“Hmph, you know that, too?” Lian Xun couldn’t help but complain, “See, what did Li Yang say? The retribution is here, right?”
Qi Luzhi: “Can’t help.”
He couldn’t avoid An Jinnan fast enough, he really couldn’t help with this.
“Okay, stop digging at me, I really don’t know who else to turn to. Among my friends, you two have the happiest and most perfect relationship. I really want to learn from you.” Wei Xueming looked very serious.
Hearing these words, Qi Luzhi and Lian Xun were both in a good mood, so naturally, they couldn’t refuse any longer.
But, how is this getting more and more complicated…?
Lian Xun leaned back on the sofa with a very headache, sighed and said, “It’s really a complete mess, why don’t we just cook it and drink it!”
