Chapter 756: Beauty in the Eye of the Beholder, Taking a Beating (1)_1
Xiao Ruiyuan held multiple positions and was swamped with official duties. He originally had no time to visit the Mo Family, but he couldn’t resist the strong yearning in his heart. After spending several evenings clearing his backlog of work, he finally managed to free up half a day and found an excuse to come to the Mo Family.
However, he never expected that he would hear the girl he adored speaking to a wolf in such a... bold and unrestrained manner!
In Xiao Ruiyuan’s heart, the girl he admired was graceful and refined, both beautiful and wise. Even if she misspoke occasionally, it was her most authentic self. But what he witnessed today completely redefined his understanding, almost making him believe he had heard wrong.
Such words, let alone from a woman, even if spoken by a man, would seem coarse and could make one feel uncomfortable. But having roughed it out in the military camps for many years, what hadn’t Xiao Ruiyuan seen or heard? Moreover, the person in question was the one he cherished most. Witnessing this other side of her, so vivid and so real, his heart suddenly surged with indescribable joy!
This, perhaps, was the so-called "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." To like someone is to calmly accept everything about them, even their flaws!
In contrast to Xiao Ruiyuan, whose mind was clouded by love, Mo Qingze, seeing his daughter’s vulgar side for the first time, felt far from good. He closed his eyes, wishing he could cover his ears and brainwash himself, telling himself that what he saw and heard wasn’t real, that it was all an illusion. How could his daughter say such embarrassing things?
But no matter how much he tried to hypnotize himself, Mo Qingze had to accept the fact. Fearing his daughter might utter even more explosive words in front of the guest, he suppressed the urge to give her a good scolding and coughed loudly twice.
