Chapter 42: Choices

The martial arts competition was over and Xi'er left, leaving Su Mo standing on the fighting ring, speechless.

"I don't need to understand. I just want to be with Brother Su Mo."

"Brother Su Mo, I like you!"

After a while, Xi'er's words still lingered in his ears.

Su Mo felt bitter in his heart. He was incompetent in protecting Xi'er, whom he liked very much.

"Mo'er, let's go back!"

Su Hong patted him on his shoulder and consoled him. "I believe that you'll eventually see Xi'er again one day."

Hearing Su Hong's words, Su Mo recovered, inhaled a deep breath, and firmly said, "In five years, I'll bring Xi'er back. More importantly, I'll keep Shangguan Hao under my foot forever."

"I trust you!" Su Hong deeply nodded his head and comforted Su Mo.

Then, they left the Mansion of the City Governor and returned to the Su's.
