Chapter 269: Rushing Into Brother Cheng’s Embrace
Have you ever hated someone so much!?!
You put your heart and soul into treating her well and you treat her like your sister in a bid to befriend her.
As long as she fancied it, you would give it to her unconditionally without any complaints.
You beg her with all your heart, and your only wish is for her to not steal your crush away.
…
What happened in the end?
The Mu Family had been lying to her for more than ten years to cheat her out of her mother’s assets. When her biological father sent people from Britain to look for her, Mu Nianqing assumed her identity.
Mu Nianqing took away everything that she had, leaving nothing behind.
However, those were just material possessions that she didn’t care about. Right from the beginning to the end… the only person she wanted was Xi Mubai!
However, in the end, Mu Nianqing still snatched Xi Mubai away even though she did not love him. In fact, she even got pregnant with his child and forced Luo Zheng to divorce him and donate her kidney to her.
In Luo Zheng’s previous life, Mu Nianqing simply said one sentence to her before she left. “Luo Zheng, you’ve lost.’
Yeah, Luo Zheng ended up losing everything to her.
She hated Jiang Xinlei, the Mu Family and Xi Mubai. Resentment drowned her soul… However, Mu Nianqing was still the one she hated most, because she was the one who planned everything to ruin Luo Zheng’s life!
Mu Nianqing… Mu Nianqing… Mu Nianqing…
Originally, she thought she could be calm.
It wasn’t until this moment where she met Mu Nianqing again, that she knew… how terrifying resentment was!
Luo Zheng ran into the hall, looking round and round, only to realize that Mu Nianqing was nowhere in sight.
At last, she kept her eyes fixed on the corridor of the hall.
Entering the hallway, the warm yellow lights cast down on her and she realized that no one was around.
All of a sudden, she heard some footsteps coming from the end of the corridor.
Luo Zheng bit her lip and scurried over.
Bang!
There was a corner at the end and Luo Zheng’s pace was so quick that she unexpectedly collided with someone as soon as she made a turn.
“Ouch…”
The man’s chest muscles were so taut that Luo Zheng was filled with immense, tear-jerking pain when she hit her forehead against it.
She then staggered and almost fell onto the ground.
At the critical moment, he stretched his arm out and put it around her waist to stop the tragedy.
Luo Zheng failed to recognize the familiar scent of tobacco and simply rubbed her forehead before raising her head in anger. “You… ”
Before she even finished, she made eye contact with him and her mind turned blank. She called subconsciously, “Brother Cheng… ”
Behind him was Mr. and Mrs. Gu, Gu Jingxuan, Qi Sumei and… Gu Changye.
“Whose daughter are you? How dare you run around like this!?! You really lack etiquette… ”
Seeing that Luo Zheng had disturbed an important guest, Mrs. Gu came forward and chided her, worried that she would upset him.
Qi Sumei immediately recognized her and she asked softly, “Ye, is she your woman?”
Gu Changye squinted and stared at Luo Zheng while tightening his grip around her waist. “How could that be? You’re my only woman, Sumei.”
Luo Zheng didn’t care about what everyone was saying, for the man in front of her was all she cared about.
She blinked to make sure that her eyes weren’t playing tricks on her. What is Mr. Bodyguard doing here?
She then rubbed her eyes foolishly and took another glimpse.
She was not hallucinating. Bo Hancheng was right there!
Luo Zheng suddenly held her breath and no longer wanted to look for Mu Nianqing.
At the next moment, she pushed him away and wriggled out of his embrace before turning around in a bid to flee.
Why?
Don’t ask her. She truly had no idea. She only knew that she was somehow feeling guilty… she dared not face him at all!
As soon as she took a step forward, he placed his hand on her shoulder and questioned, “Why are you trying to run away?”
