"Clang" — the door was locked by Chu Mucheng.
The heavy sound of the lock reverberated through Tao Zhixiang’s heart.
Looking at Chu Mucheng’s face, Tao Zhixiang suddenly noticed that his eyes seed to be bloodshot.
And when he looked at her, his gaze was like a deep pool of water, calm and profound, unfathomable.
His expression was obviously so calm, yet Tao Zhixiang could sense the deep anger hidden within Chu Mucheng.
He was very displeased...
Really very displeased.
However, Tao Zhixiang did not understand where his anger stemd from.
Did she offend him again?
But thinking about it, how was that possible?
They just t each other!
Moreover, how could she possibly have the ability to make Chu Mucheng so angry?
For a mont, Tao Zhixiang didn’t know how to speak, or what to say to Chu Mucheng.
In fact, she hadn’t seen Chu Mucheng for several days. How long has it been?
Well, thinking carefully, it must have been over a month!
So long... Sotis, Tao Zhixiang would wonder if Chu Mucheng might have already forgotten about her existence.
Actually, that’s how it was from the beginning. In Chu Mucheng’s heart, she was just soone who made no difference if present or absent. Even if she suddenly disappeared one day, he probably wouldn’t care.
But, during this festive season, why wasn’t he with his family and why did he co here?
And Chu Mucheng, he was just quietly staring at the petite woman in front of him. When she first saw him appear, there was a flash of surprise in her eyes, but it soon turned into a hint of self-mockery.
The subtle shift in her expression didn’t escape his notice.
"Where did you go tonight?"
Chu Mucheng’s voice was low and cold, his gaze even more somber.
Tao Zhixiang was montarily startled.
"I went to see a movie."
Chu Mucheng let out a cold laugh.
"Oh, went to see a movie? Really?"
Tao Zhixiang could only feel that Chu Mucheng’s tone was too aggressive. That interrogative tone of his, she really... didn’t like it!
Why did it feel like an interrogation of a criminal?
She wasn’t a prisoner, and he wasn’t the judge.
Actually, when she saw the cigarette butts in the ashtray, she knew he had been there. At that ti, a wave of regret ca over her for not being ho and missing the chance to et him.
She originally thought she missed this chance to see him, and didn’t know when the next ti would be, but suddenly, Chu Mucheng appeared.
Yet, upon eting him again, she suddenly felt very cold.
"Chu Mucheng, what do you... an by this?"
His words were sharp and piercing, and the sarcasm in his eyes was even more evident.
Chu Mucheng stepped forward, a cold smile on his lips. He gently raised his hand, lifting Tao Zhixiang’s chin, his eerie cold gaze fixed on her, as he said word by word:
"Tao Zhixiang, I hate being deceived the most! If you’re smart, speak the truth!"
Tao Zhixiang was stunned.
Chu Mucheng’s words were clearly hinting at so suspicion.
"Chu Mucheng, I don’t understand what you an!"
This man, what was he forcing her to say? Wasn’t she telling the truth?
But Chu Mucheng just let out another cold laugh.
"Do you think it’s fun to lie to ? What, is it because I haven’t been around to keep you company, so you can’t bear the loneliness and went to fool around with other n, huh?"
