But Xu Mo understood that beneath Mia’s beautiful appearance, her heart was filled with sadness.
Of course, he hadn’t forgotten, how Miss Mia’s father, Master Batu, was cruelly killed in the Underworld.
And the memories in the container, how could she forget these sorrows?
They were merely hidden deep within her heart.
Xu Mo, like all the other audience members, listened quietly. Mia played several pieces he was unfamiliar with, as well as Wind Valley, Sky City, My Soul.
Each piece of music touched the heart.
So much so that when the music stopped and Mia bowed and left, the audience remained immersed in the experience, and it took a while after Mia had left the stage for the applause to resound endlessly.
Mia didn’t say a word, but it was as though she had already conveyed her emotions to all the audience members.
Even without using spiritual power, Mia naturally had the ability to affect people’s emotions.
Xu Mo stood up and walked in the direction of the backstage.
Sloan and the others were guarding outside.
When entering the backstage, Xu Mo saw Mia enter the dressing room and was stopped by someone.
"Let him in." A voice came through. Irina’s heart pounded when she saw Xu Mo, never having imagined that the reckless young man who had once torn through the Underworld had now become a prominent figure in Steel Dome City.
Her father’s prediction was not wrong, but Xu Mo had moved too fast.
Many things were beyond prediction.
Xu Mo walked straight into the room Mia had entered. Irina’s brother, Yi Kai, was also there. After seeing Xu Mo, he closed the door and stood guard outside.
Now, it was just Xu Mo and Mia in the room.
Mia’s beautiful eyes gazed at Xu Mo, her clear, flawless eyes carrying a radiant smile. Yet, that smile seemed to hold a trace of sorrow, and her eyes were slightly moist.
"Miss Mia, it’s been a long time," Xu Mo said with a bright smile to the familiar face before him.
"Yes." Mia nodded vigorously, walked forward, and extended her slender fingers to gently touch Xu Mo’s cheek and the hair at his temples.
"Xu Mo, are you alright?"
As Mia spoke, tears began to flow. This separation felt like it had lasted a century, making it feel somewhat unreal to her.
Seeing Xu Mo again, other than a greeting, she didn’t even know what else to say.
"Yeah," Xu Mo said. "How about you, Miss Mia?"
"I’m doing very well," Mia replied with a radiant smile. "I know about the recent events around you. You should be careful."
"I know," Xu Mo nodded. "I might be leaving Steel Dome City soon. Come with me."
Mia was startled, then smiled. Could Xu Mo really leave? If that were the case, she wouldn’t have to worry about him every day.
"I’m quite content here," Mia said.
"What do you want to do, Miss Mia?" Xu Mo asked. He had always felt that Mia’s rise to fame was for a reason. So she wasn’t planning on leaving?
"I don’t want to do anything. I quite like my life now," Mia said with a brilliant smile.
Xu Mo stared at her, and Mia’s gaze somewhat wavered.
"Give me your contact number." Xu Mo passed the communicator to Mia. She entered her own contact number, and then Xu Mo said, "I can’t stay long, let’s talk after I go back, and don’t do anything reckless."
Xu Mo placed his hands on Mia’s shoulders. "Remember what I said, wait for my message."
With that, Xu Mo turned and left the place. He was worried staying too long would attract attention.
Mia watched Xu Mo depart and chased after him, gazing at his retreating figure. Her beautiful eyes remained moist, filled with reluctance.
Xu Mo really had grown up!
