This evening, everyone in the Chu Family was on pins and needles, and Chu Mucheng... also stayed up all night.
He went to An Xiaoyu’s residence, knocked on the door and received no response; he called her but still, no one answered.
Where could she go this late at night?
Chu Mucheng was unwilling to entertain that thought, but he had to believe that once again, An Xiaoyu was taken away by Shen Yufeng!
Now, this seemed to be the only answer.
Is that man really worthy of her trust?
Chu Mucheng felt indignant, but at that moment, he also felt a deep sense of defeat washing over him.
In his heart, he still harbored a sliver of hope, perhaps if it got even later, An Xiaoyu would come back.
Chu Mucheng did not close his eyes the entire night, just sitting against the wall in the corridor, waiting for her return.
Those profound eyes of his were veiled with a dense mist, and as the dawn gradually brightened and the sun slowly rose, the tiny spark in his eyes dimmed and turned into a despair on the verge of destruction.
She didn’t come back... She really didn’t come back...
This evening, she was with Shen Yufeng the whole time!
This realization was something Chu Mucheng couldn’t accept.
Inside Chu Mucheng’s heart was a deathly stillness.
All of a sudden, the elevator dinged, stopping on this floor. Chu Mucheng thought it was An Xiaoyu returning and abruptly lifted his head.
The word that followed lodged in his throat without escaping.
The person who came out of the elevator was not An Xiaoyu, but Chu Yihong.
Chu Yihong looked at Chu Mucheng, who was sitting on the ground with dark circles under his eyes and exhaustion all over him, and felt deep sorrow.
"Look at yourself, all for a woman, what have you done to yourself. Is it worth it?"
Chu Mucheng laughed derisively at himself.
He didn’t know how to answer that question.
To others, his behavior might seem foolish, but, he couldn’t control his own heart.
Yes, with his status and position, what kind of woman couldn’t he have? And yet, it was her he had fallen for! Unwittingly, he had fallen in love with her.
But by the time he realized, it was... too late!
Can he really... not enter her world?!
At that moment, Chu Mucheng’s face was a mask of ice-cold desolation.
An Xiaoyu was still troubled by what Shen Yufeng had said before, that he wanted to move in to live with her!
My God! An Xiaoyu’s mood instantly soured.
The God wanted to leave his hillside villa and not live in this dreamlike little house, opting instead to cram himself into her cramped apartment?
An Xiaoyu thought about her small yet cozy nest; if one more person was added... what would that look like?
Suddenly, An Xiaoyu thought of Chu Mucheng.
Chu Mucheng lived right next door; wouldn’t that mean seeing each other whenever they lifted their heads or lowered them from now on?
Moreover, the matter between her and Chu Mucheng... had to be made clear promptly!
Last night, Chu Mucheng had called her numerous times, but her phone was still on silent mode, so she didn’t answer any of them.
Now, she should do as Shen Yufeng said—make a clean break! Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
Shen Yufeng gazed at her frowning face and couldn’t help but lift a finger to gently smooth her brow.
"What are you thinking about? Surely... you’re not secretly thinking about other men behind my back, are you?"
Can the God read minds? How could he guess that?
She took a deep breath and said, "In a bit, I want to meet with Chu Mucheng!"
