It was at this moment that the man finally turned around, and then he stood there in the corridor, his back to the golden light, and looked at her expressionlessly, "Would you do that?"
"Drag me down with you and have me join your funeral, would you?"
As if turned foolish, Ye Ning stared at the man for a long time without uttering a word...
What did he mean? Did he think that today’s incident was orchestrated by her?
No, not just think, but in his heart, he must have already believed it to be so.
Because he knew about her plan and her goal, so naturally, he would attribute today’s issue at Longfeng to her without a second thought.
Her heart sank bit by bit, and simultaneously, the blood drained slowly from her face.
She knew it would be . Yes, when she was returning home yesterday, she had predicted this outcome, and that was the reason she went to Longfeng in the middle of the night to choose those jade artifacts.
But what use was that? The incident still erupted this morning, didn’t it?
She heard the voice of despair from the bottom of her heart, and her fingers began to tremble slightly: "Are you asking me?"
"Am I supposed to ask myself?"
He was half-joking, half-serious, his gaze, however, was fixed on her nose.
Being this foolish, what would she do in the future?
He glanced at the watch on his wrist, saw that it was about time, and then he withdrew his gaze: "Let’s go, it’s getting late."
Then, he turned and continued walking forward, before this, he hadn’t even looked to see her expression.
This was just a joke, and he had said it casually out of boredom.
As for her attitude, did he need to ask again?
He walked very quickly...
But he didn’t know that behind him, the woman who heard his words seemed as though all the light in the world had vanished, leaving only darkness and despair.
Indeed, for her now, he had become an indispensable part of her life. Besides Xiaobao, his place in her heart was the heaviest.
But now, he had misunderstood her, believing she was the person who caused Longfeng’s substantial loss today. Did that mean he would leave her in the future? Because she utilized him once more for revenge, he would never forgive her again?
As this thought settled, a pain sharp as a thorn appeared at the bottom of her heart. Her figure swayed, and without knowing why, tears dropped from her eyes.
That must be a kind of desperation, right?
Because she didn’t want to lose him anymore!
In pain, she closed her eyes and began stepping back, retreating...
Ou Mucen kept walking forward until he reached the elevator and noticed the silence behind him; then he turned and looked back.
He stood stunned, looking at the empty corridor behind him, his expression was one of sheer astonishment.
What was going on? Where on earth did that woman disappear to?
He quickly returned from the elevator entrance and hurried back: "An Ning? Where are you?"
No one responded, the only thing giving him an answer was the sound of someone continuously descending the stairs around the corner of the corridor.
Who was that? Was it that woman?
He listened, rushed over from that side, and when he arrived, he looked down from above and indeed saw that woman running down the stairs in haste.
Why avoid the elevator and rush down the stairs?
Subconsciously, he followed and shouted while chasing her: "An Ning, where are you going? Stop for me!"
