You are all bad women! Don't come over!-Chapter 475 - 458

"Depression?" Xia Qingrou looked at the assessment report in her hands, her smile instantly freezing, "Doctor, there hasn't been a mistake... right?"

"My personal opinion is currently identical to this assessment result," the middle-aged woman adjusted her glasses, "You said lately you've always been slow-thinking, suffering from memory loss, occasionally feeling nauseous, and experiencing sleep disturbances. All of these are manifestations of depression."

"But... but... look at me, do I look like someone with depression?" Xia Qingrou forced a smile, her lips desperately curving upward.

"Cases like yours are quite common; some people are all smiles all day, but their condition is actually quite serious. Smile depression is becoming more frequent in recent years," the doctor said gently, "But don't worry, I have plenty of time today, let's chat for a bit."

...

"What's going on with Xia Qingrou, could it be because of us..." In the room, Han Muxue lay in Shen Mochen's arms, murmuring.

"Don't overthink it, it's probably not related to you," Shen Mochen played with Han Muxue's hair, speaking softly.

"I thought you would say, 'Exactly, so let me open a harem!'"

"Hahaha, you actually think of me like that!"

"Is it not so?"

Han Muxue had been disabled since childhood and was extremely sensitive. She had roughly guessed the reason but dared not dwell on it, fearing the guilt that came with extensive thought.

Shen Mochen was always quick to seize any opportunity to tempt her into agreeing to "open a harem," but now, presented with such a good excuse, he hadn't mentioned it at all.

Clearly, he had guessed the reason too. His silence was precisely because he didn't want to burden her with this moral dilemma.

"You haven't kissed me today!" Han Muxue tilted her head and said.

"Why, do we have to kiss every day?" Shen Mochen laughed as he leaned down to kiss her lips.

"We have to kiss every day, it's a boyfriend's duty!" Han Muxue pouted, wrapping her arms around Shen Mochen's neck.

Shen Mochen smirked as he lifted Han Muxue up, letting her straddle his lap: "So what's a girlfriend's duty...?"

Han Muxue's face flushed red, and she twisted softly, "If you want it, go do it outside... there are people at home! You big pervert!"

"Clearly, you want it more!"

"Not at all, you freak!"

"A heat-of-the-moment enthusiast calling me a freak!"

"You're the freak, it's you who's the freak!"

Han Muxue grew anxious, quickly grabbing Shen Mochen's mouth to stop him from continuing.

"Then I'll go tell the captain, let's go out for a walk!" Shen Mochen teased Han Muxue with a mischievous smile.

"...Hmph!" Han Muxue subconsciously swallowed and put on a dismissive snort on her face.

"Acting all tsundere with me now, just wait until I make you cry 'daddy' later." Shen Mochen rubbed his face against Han Muxue's and went out to make his request to Liu Chaoyan.

After the request was granted, Shen Mochen took Han Muxue out to the forest, vanquishing the day as the sky gradually darkened.

Shen Mochen brought along biodegradable wet toilet paper and wiped Han Muxue down a bit. Suddenly, he remembered something, "Oh right, about your legs recovering, haven't you told your family yet?"

Han Muxue's originally joyous, blush-colored cheeks gradually cooled down. She struggled to support Shen Mochen as she stood up, her eyes blinking slightly, "I... don't know how to say it."

"Just say you're feeling better, why would that be hard to say?"

Han Muxue's lips moved a few times, and she licked them, "Will they... really be happy?"

Shen Mochen laughed and pulled Han Muxue's frail body into his arms, comforting her with a smile, "Of course, I can understand how you feel. But after all, they are your parents, and knowing that you are healthy will definitely make them happy."

"Mmm... then I, I will tell them in a few days..." Han Muxue squinted her eyes, enjoying the warm embrace of Shen Mochen.

"Mmm, they're your family after all, it's not like I'm asking you to become much closer to them all at once."

Shen Mochen knew that deep down, Han Muxue had always wanted to gain her parents' care and recognition. Her harshness towards her family after her awakening was a reflection of this. freeweɓnøvel.com

Her parents were biased, but they had nonetheless fulfilled their duties as best as they could, and besides... Shen Mochen didn't want Han Muxue to become a lonely person with only herself.

Han Muxue suddenly laughed, her mouth twisting, "You're one to talk, with such a bad relationship with your own family..."

"My family is in the hospital, and we have a great relationship!"

"Is that family? That's your little lover!" Han Muxue immediately became irritated, "I'm talking about your real mom! You don't even care about her!"

"Uh, she and your mom are different, she abandoned me by her own choice, and in my heart, she's already dead."

"It's still your parent, isn't it? You're just being a hypocrite!" Han Muxue clicked her tongue, "You seem to have a sister too, don't you? You don't care about her either, yet I haven't neglected that scumbag Han Xiaoyong!"

Speaking of which, Xia Qingrou had said before that she wanted to meet Shen Mochen's mother, but she returned in less than two days asking for a breakup... It seemed that she didn't meet Shen Mochen's mother.

But that didn't make sense... Han Muxue suddenly realized, it wasn't in line with Xia Qingrou's character. With Xia Qingrou's "busybody" personality, even if she suddenly broke up with Shen Mochen, it would have been after a conversation with the two of them.

"What sister? I've never seen her..." Shen Mochen shrugged.

Actually, he was somewhat curious about this sister he had never met. After experiencing a life of having nothing, he found himself harboring a faint desire for "family". It was just that he couldn't and didn't want to express this feeling.

Speaking of which, now that he was so famous, why hadn't that woman come to find him with a thick face!

"Why did you two break up?" Han Muxue suddenly asked.

"Xia Qingrou and I?"

Shen Mochen blinked, as he had figured out the reason long ago. But he couldn't tell Han Muxue. Maybe if he told her, things might get a bit better, but there was no need to burden Han Muxue with all of this. Her life had been too hard already.

"I'm not too sure, you two were so close, didn't you hear anything?"

"She just said... she, because of your little lover, you lied to her..."

"Ah, then it really looks like it was my fault!" Shen Mochen sighed, his face filled with sorrow, "Actually, I was just joking around, I never thought she would believe it."

"I think, she doesn't seem like the kind who would..."

Han Muxue suddenly realized a contradiction. If Xia Qingrou was such an open slut, then why would she break up with Shen Mochen over something trivial like "Shen Mochen not being a virgin"?

Right, looking back now, she seemed so much in love with Shen Mochen. But if it wasn't for that reason, why did she lie?

Han Muxue vaguely felt she knew what it was, but she dared not think any deeper. She was afraid, afraid that the truth might not be what she wanted to know.
