I am the Odd One Out Chapter 72

A Qiang was full of energy again. He talked eloquently, and the man named Leo Lin also talked a lot. Their eyes were shining brightly. Leo Lin's eyes came to the small house through the light of the kerosene lamp from time to time. When Mia responded to him with a smile on Mei's face, he looked away in panic. It wasn't until he started talking to Mia that his expression became more natural.

Seeing Alex talking with great energy, Mia had a premonition of something. For a while, she didn't hear the voices of Alex and Leo Lin talking. She was immersed in the memory of Alex. She first met this absent-minded boy when she entered the Shen family at the age of ten. Then the boy quickly grew up in her memory. Eight years seemed like a blink of an eye. The memory stopped for a moment on their wedding night, and then when she returned to Wanmu Dangxi. Cun paused for a moment, and the longest memory she had was when she was enduring the humiliation and bearing the burden, Alex suddenly appeared in front of her. This man risked all the odds in the world to take her away from home, and the two of them shared the joys and sorrows together.

Late that night, Alex was lying on the kang, looking at the moonlight shining in from the window, whispering in a low voice, intermittently, and incoherently. Mia was lying on her side, looking at Alex, whose face was in the moonlight. There is a shadow of the window frame.

Alex talked about his uneasiness about continuing to the capital. Alex didn't know if there really was an uncle who worked in Prince Gong's palace. His mother had never seen him. Not only had she not seen him, but she had not even seen the distant cousin who married him. Saw it. Alex paused here, waiting for Mia's reaction. Mia said that when she arrived in the capital, she would know if her uncle had done anything there if she found Prince Gong's Mansion. Alex has given up going to the capital, but Mia still wants to go to the capital. Alex emphasized that if his uncle had not done anything at Prince Gong's residence, he would not be able to get any news about his uncle if he went to Prince Gong's residence. Mia was unmoved. She said that even if she couldn't find her uncle, as long as she worked hard, she should be able to gain a foothold in the capital. Alex asked her how to gain a foothold in the capital, and Mia said that her darning skills would never be lost. One day she would have her own darning shop, which would mean she would gain a foothold in the capital.

Alex fell silent. When he spoke again, he changed the topic and told how he was short of money at the moment and could not survive for long no matter how frugally he lived. Mia immediately said that by sending her cheongsam to a pawn shop, she should be able to get some money in exchange. Alex sighed and said that pawning clothes was only a temporary solution, not a long-term solution. Mia is still optimistic and determined. She said that she can always find a livelihood. There is no end to the road. Even if she begs for food all the way, she can get to the capital.
