Chapter 285 - Answer my question first (1/2)
The doll's makeup was faded to almost non-existent, one side of her face was dented and left hand twisted at an odd angle. But someone made her features with sketch pens, to hide the dented face her braided ponytail was brought forward to the damaged side, hiding the damage and a white cloth was wrapped around her arm as if trying to heal her.
The doll was ugly and damaged, but Xiu Mei only saw the efforts put in order to cover the ugliness. To her, it was the most beautiful doll she has ever seen.
However what surprised her most was the thin metal wire wrapped at the dolls lower body, starting from the waist. It was so meticulously and neatly done that not even a tiny space was left unwrapped. But why? What's the purpose?
”She is beautiful” Xiu Mei extended her hand and touched the doll lightly.
”Aahhh!”
Unknown to her, this little action triggered something inside Xavier and he turned into a violent animal. Next moment Xavier pushed Xiu Mei harshly on the shoulder, making her almost collide into the medicine table. While trying to balance herself she fell down in the space between the bed and medicine table.
Before Xiu Mei could react, Xavier jumped from the bed, picked the scissor from the tray, overturning the medicine table in rage. Holding scissor he tried to attack Xiu Mei, growling like an animal.
Reflexively she covered her face with her hands. But the expected pain never came. After some time she peeked from the space in between her fingers and saw a man holding frenzied Xavier while the later struggles wildly.
Xiu Mei crawled under the bed. All she could hear was the sound of someone growling and the word 'control''control''control' echoing in the room.
Nothing happened as per her expectations….
No one hugged her….
No one was happy….
No one will tell about her past….
It's all over….

Feng Jianyu hugged her protectively after hearing what happened inside the tent. He could not bear to see her sad again. Just a moment ago he saw her old self, the jovial Alice but that didn't last long.
Before Feng Jianyu can say something to comfort her he saw that the man has walked up to them and is now staring intently at Xiu Mei. He cocked his head to all possible angles, trying to recognize the masked woman. His brows furrowed deeper when the woman lifted her head up and looked into his eyes.
'These eyes!?' He wondered.
He noticed her gaze seemed to be saying a thousand words, like narrating a story. Strikingly familiar! These deep beautiful eyes match with a certain someone. A person who used to be very special to him….
As if his body acted on its own, unknowingly he extended his hand to take off her mask. Xiu Mei neither moved nor did she stop the man from removing her mask. Lu Xion and Feng Jianyu did not intervene as they understood that Xiu Mei doesn't have any problem in revealing her identity to this man.
