Her lips curved into a soft, charming smile. She withdrew the hand from his lips and instead held his hand resting on the quilt, whispering, "Even if you don’t love me, I’m still very happy, because in the days to come, I will live as your wife."
In her eyes, the relationship between husband and wife was sacred, and she felt very honored to become the wife of the man she had admired for many years.
Munni pressed her red lips together, her gaze uncontrollably drifting towards Xu Yisen’s sensual thin lips.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally bent down, lowered her head, and left a gentle kiss on Xu Yisen’s lips.
"Yisen, I love you," she whispered softly in his ear.
As Xu Yisen said, during their three years of marriage, Munni was always easily controlled by him.
That’s why they appeared loving in front of others, and like polite strangers behind closed doors, and she never uttered a word of complaint.
Munni recalled the past three years of life and the misunderstanding Xu Yisen had about her being a deeply scheming woman, a smile unknowingly forming in her heart.
Ha, using her love to control her, who could be more cunning than he? And on what grounds did he misunderstand her?
She once thought that in this lifetime, she would never hear the three words "I love you" from Xu Yisen’s mouth, words she had longed for eleven years.
Life is such a shameless little sham, always toying with people’s feelings.
Early the next morning, Tang Haoliang arrived at Xu Yisen’s home, delivering an important document and informing him of a new piece of information.
"Chairman, Miss Qin took the earliest flight to Japan this morning."
Sitting at his desk, Xu Yisen lifted his cool eyes to glance at Tang Haoliang and asked, "When will she be back?"
"For now, it’s not known. Should we send someone to follow her?"
Images from last night together with Munni suddenly flashed in Xu Yisen’s mind, realizing that Munni was deliberately avoiding him, thus fleeing to Japan.
"No, let her go and relax."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and focused his attention on the important document on the table.
Tang Haoliang still stood in front of the desk, his lips tightly pressed, his brows furrowed with evident confusion.
Even with Xu Yisen’s head lowered, not looking at him, he could still feel the complex and tangled gaze, thereby leading Xu Yisen to ask indifferently, "Is there something else?"
"Chairman." After a pause of two seconds, Tang Haoliang finally resolved to express the words he had been hesitating over for a long time, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to pry into your personal life. It’s just, your recent actions... are they intended to reconcile with Miss Qin?"
The writing movement in Xu Yisen’s hand gave a slight pause, then he answered, "Yes."
Seeing Xu Yisen admit so straightforwardly, Tang Haoliang grew interested. He pulled the chair in front of the desk and sat opposite Xu Yisen, "Chairman, don’t blame me for speaking out of turn. I just think when a man is pursuing a woman, being shameless is key! If you remain so aloof, most of the time it will backfire."
Xu Yisen put down the pen in his hand, slowly lifted his head to look across at Tang Haoliang, whose eyes sparkled with excited light.
Tang Haoliang, viewed with such a profound gaze, felt a flutter of fear, thinking Xu Yisen found him too talkative, so he was about to apologize and explain, but saw Xu Yisen calmly ask, "Am I that aloof?"
"Ah?" The sudden question left Tang Haoliang momentarily stunned.
After collecting himself, he explained, "It’s not that you’re cold, but you’re not enthusiastic enough! Miss Qin, after all, has been hurt by you, and if you want to win her back, you must genuinely prove your sincerity!"
