The Rise of the White Lotus Chapter 4 – pretty useless

“Lexi, dear…” mother yang called out gently and reached her soft hands to her precious daughter.

“Why would you do that?” Said mother yang with her voice filled with self-blame and pain. Lexi’s heart slightly softens as remorse slowly creeps on her heart.

“Mom… I-I’m –” Lexi’s voice cracked attempting to apologize for the heartache she caused to the person who raised her with love.

“Shhh… mommy understood.” Mother Yang hushed her as a comforting smile formed on the side of her lips.

Lexi as a little girl at heart whenever she was in front of her parents, cried her heart out.

The pain that was caused by Moris was still there. Yet, what made Lexi more emotional is that she was too blinded with her love towards Moris that she neglect the love she was receiving from the people who really care about her.

Lexi cried until her eyes turned puffy and it can no longer produce more tears. Soon after, with mother yang’s tender pats, Lexi’s body relaxes as her eyes shut closed.

After some time, when Mother Yang reassured that Lexi was gone back to sleep, she tucked her daughter in before leaving for a while to freshen herself up.

When Mother Yang left, Lexi’s puffy and almost swollen eyes abruptly opened.

“You’re a good actress, chu~” Churu stated with her tiny hand cupping her cute squishy cheeks.

Alas, Lexi didn’t bother with Churu’s sarcasm as she contemplated for a while, “hey dumpling, what will happen if I completed every task on the system?”

“You will be granted a wish, chu~” Churu stated with her usual merry high-pitch thin voice.

“How many?”

“Don’t know, chu~”

“You’re pretty useless.”

“I am, chu~. But every task you complete, my abilities will also increase and I’ll evolve!” Churu’s eyes gleam with excitement as her body flew in the air, meter away from Lexi’s face. Churu made sure that her distance is an inch away from Lexi’s reach — for the possibility that the girl would suddenly snatch her away and eat her. At least, she’ll be safe.

“Evolve? From dumpling to what? Siu Bao?” Lexi sarcastically spat out.

“Siu Bao? What is that, chu~?”

Lexi’s brows arc as her eyes rolls in disbelief. Lexi didn’t dwell whether Churu was also being clever or just downright ignorant.

Nonetheless, it would only be either Churu will adjust for her sassiness or Lexi would need to learn how to prolong her patience for the sake of Churu. Either way, they have to learn things from today onwards for their own goals.

Soon, dizziness finally struck Lexi as her body went into a deep sleep. On the other hand, Churu just stares at Lexi before shifting her gaze on the well-crafted ceiling. Alas, Churu seems gazed seems to wonder beyond the ceiling, on the roof and up to the sky.

Suddenly, Churu smiled brightly before she nodded. “Sure, chu~!”

——

Two weeks had passed after Lexi attempted to take her life, which she successfully did but was interrupted midway.

Scrolling through her phone’s browser, some of Lexi’s photos are still on the top search topics. Yet, reading some harsh comments and baseless articles about her, Lexi scoffs in dismay.

“How tasteless.”

“Isn’t that true, chu?” Churu draws closer and landed on Lexi’s shoulder as she looks at the article’s expose about Lexi’s numerous ambiguous relationship.

“Of course not. Aside from Moris, I never throw myself to any man.” Lexi states in a matter-of-factly tone. She added,

“There are a lot of envious b*tches in the entertainment industry so they won’t let the chance to slip and put more oil to the flames.”

“You’re one of them, chu~?”

Lexi glared at Churu who seemed she didn’t know she touched Lexi’s nerved. Alas, for some reason, Lexi sighs heavily as she calms herself down. After all, Churu was right.

Though she didn’t want to enter the entertainment industry, but, when she found out that Mia Chen was a small time actress, she wanted to compete with her even with that petty thing. Wanting to trample Mia in every way she can.

“Whatever… just a piece of big news or scandal, everyone will forget about me.” Lexi draws away from her phone and stood from her vanity chair before heading outside of her room for the first time.

‘Churu, what’s the initial task again?’ Lexi telepathically inquired. Though she was unsure if Churu might hear her, it’s still worth the shot.

“Seduce Ethan Lu, chu~!” Surprisingly, Churu’s answered rang inside Lexi’s head.
