Birth of a Beauty novel Chapter 115

-Next Morning-

Shanghai High School:

“Xiao Seulbi, Are you really okay? You should’ve taken few days off to recover.” Li Cheng said, Worried.

“It’s okay. School Festival is coming soon. It will trouble everyone if the leader herself is absent. You must be busy. I think you should go.” Li Seulbi replied.

“Aye, my daughter is the leader? Why didn’t you tell-” Li Cheng stopped midway. Clearing his throat, He placed his hand on her head.

Patting affectionately, He spoke “Seulbi, Father is really proud of you. Do your best. But don’t overstrain yourself.”

“Seulbi, I was so shocked when I saw you yesterday like that. When Mom told me what happened, I was shaken up. I don’t care about my work; I shall pick and drop you off daily.”

Li Seulbi was a little taken aback by the sudden affection which she wasn’t used to. She used to crave for that affection when she was small. Now, that she was eventually getting what she initially wanted, why wasn’t she happy? She thought.

“Biggy Sis?” A soft voice rang out from behind them.

They turned around to see Xi Mei staring at Li Seulbi.

Sprinting towards Li Seulbi, Xi Mei grabbed her face. Starting from her face, she looked around every wound she had.

Heaving a sigh of relief at the end, she spoke “Thank god the swelling in your face has subsided. Still, you should have taken rest for few days. I could take notes for you.”

“Don’t worry. I am fine.” Li Seulbi smiled as she answered.

Seeing that, Li Cheng was stunned for a while before he turned to Xi Mei and asked “You must be Seulbi’s friend?”

Xi Mei who was complete oblivious about his presence, tilted her head in confusion “Who are..you?”

Li Seulbi spoke this time “Meimei, He is my father. He came to drop me off.”

“Oh.. Oh? Father? I mean Hello, I am Xi Mei, Li Seulbi’s classmate.” Xi Mei bowed, greeting him.

“Hello, it’s nice to meet Seulbi’s friend. Since she is injured, I request you to take care of her.” Li Cheng requested.

“Father” Li Seulbi muttered.

“N-No, You don’t have to say. I will take good care of her. Please, don’t worry.” Xi Mei uttered.

Patting Li Seulbi’s head once again,” Then, I will get going. I will come to pick you up. Wait for me.” After biding goodbye with Xi Mei, he left.

“You have a great father, Biggy Sis.” Xi Mei cheered.

“You think so. Let’s go before bell rings.” Li Seulbi stated.

Xi Mei nodded her head but as soon as they took next step, they heard a fuming shout “Hey!”

Turning around, they saw Mo Xung standing with the help of crutches.

“How can you leave me just like that?” Mo Xung berated.

Xi Mei clicked her tongue as she apologized “Oops, Sorry. When I saw Seulbi, I forgot about you. Let me help you.”

She ran up to him and stayed by his side.

“Humph!”
