In that mont, Tao Zhixiang really wanted to ask Chu Mucheng, are you, by any chance, jealous?
However, this thought was quickly extinguished by Tao Zhixiang herself.
Ha, as if that’s possible?
Perhaps it was because of watching such an artistic film tonight that her emotions beca so sensitive!
Really, so childish!
She knew that being with Chu Mucheng like this was largely because her mother was tethered by dical expenses, without which there would be nothing between the two of them.
A bitter taste suddenly welled up in Tao Zhixiang’s heart, so thick it couldn’t be dispelled.
And Chu Mucheng was just gazing at her face like that, watching the angry expression she had disappear, replaced by a certain helplessness.
Just like a little lion that was about to beco frenzied, suddenly had its tendons removed, turning into a soft little lamb.
Those clear eyes stared at him calmly, speaking in such a composed tone, "Chu Mucheng, I did indeed go to the movies alone tonight!"
Chu Mucheng squinted his eyes at her, saying nothing.
Tao Zhixiang’s gaze was calm and undisturbed, as if her earlier anger had vanished imdiately, so quickly that Chu Mucheng was surprised, yet also shocked inside.
Tao Zhixiang continued, "The person who brought back is a colleague from our company, soone I ran into after coming out of the cinema. Whether you believe it or not, that’s all I have to say!"
Chu Mucheng raised an eyebrow.
Just like that, it’s over?
And yet, deep down, he believed what she said.
Chu Mucheng himself didn’t know why the burning fury inside him had been quelled by just a few of her words.
He found it puzzling.
Tao Zhixiang looked at him, lips pulling faintly, as if wanting to smile, but there was no trace of a smile.
"Don’t worry, I will keep the promise from before!"
A promise? What promise?
Chu Mucheng raised an eyebrow.
And at this mont, Tao Zhixiang pushed aside his hand, turned around, and walked towards the bathroom. When she reached the door of the bathroom, her hand gripped the door handle and she stopped.
She didn’t look back but said softly, "Before you’ve had enough fun, I’ll take care of this body properly, I won’t put a green hat on you. After all, I don’t have anything valuable, and to you, this is the only thing worth looking at, isn’t it?"
After she said that, she pushed the door open and went in, imdiately locking the door behind her, and the sound of running water could be heard from inside.
Inside the bathroom, Tao Zhixiang was already crying uncontrollably.
The sound of the water drowned out her muffled sobs.
Look at her; now she’s turned into sothing she most dislikes!
*
After Tao Zhixiang had cried enough and washed her face, she ca out from the bathroom to see that Chu Mucheng was still there, sitting on the sofa.
Tao Zhixiang frowned a little.
"It’s so late, aren’t you going ho?"
After all, it’s the New Year period, so one should be with family!
She has a ho...she can’t go back to, and he has a ho...he doesn’t go back to.
Chu Mucheng snorted softly, his gaze coldly landing on Tao Zhixiang’s face.
"What, you’re allowed to stay here and not go ho, but I’m not allowed to stay for a night?"
Tao Zhixiang avoided his gaze.
"That’s not what I ant, the house is yours, stay as long as you want!"
Chu Mucheng raised an eyebrow, why does this woman always choose to say things he doesn’t like to hear?
Just a mont ago he thought she had turned into a gentle little lamb, and now...she’s becoming a little hedgehog again!
Chu Mucheng took a deep breath.
"Co over here! I’m thirsty!"
