"Is the girl outside still there?" Xia Wan who was holding onto a picture book to read suddenly turned and said to Xiao Muting.
The corner of his mouth twitched. Xiao Muting stopped walking and asked with a guilty face, "You... Did you see all of them? "
Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Wan laughed: "Her voice is so loud, it's hard to not pay attention."
With a slight nod, Xiao Muting came to Xia Wan's side and sat down, his eyes dark and cautious.
Picking up his water cup, he hesitated for a while and finally couldn't help but ask, "Don't you want to know who she is and why she is looking for me?"
Hearing this, Xia Wan seriously thought for a moment, and then guessed: "From the looks of her unwilling to leave, she should be your pursuer, right?"
The feeling of his heart falling made Xiao Muting droop his eyelids with a lonely expression.
Originally, the reason why he tried to test the other party was to rule out the possibility that Xia Wan had unintentionally overheard his relationship with Ye Tong.
But when Xia Wan didn't care at all about Ye Tong, he felt extremely disappointed and dejected.
Because this meant that Xia Wan still did not treat him as her boyfriend, and did not even have the instinctive reaction of being jealous.
With the little girl who was focused on reading, Xiao Muting felt that although Xia Wan was right in front of him, she was actually very far away from her, and could not figure it out.
His expression became sad, his eyes dimmed, and he secretly thought to himself: This won't do, I have to think of a way to make Xia Wan care about him.
After waiting outside the villa for a long time, Ye Tong slowly lost her patience.
Her makeup was spent and her legs were sore, but the people in the house showed no signs of coming out.
She was so angry that she was fuming. She wished she could just barge in.
However, the existence of the security guards reminded her to keep her cool, otherwise she might fall out with Xiao Muting.
She didn't want to wait any longer, so she pretended to not care and stomped her foot, casting a sidelong glance at the house, and muttered with disdain: "So mysterious! Could he be hiding his identity as a woman who couldn't see the light of day?! I don't care! "
But she didn't seem to care on the surface, but as she walked towards the car, she was actually thinking hard about how to meet the woman that Xiao Muting had hidden away well.
He did not believe that he would lose to those mediocre and common fans, so Ye Tong was naturally unwilling to accept this defeat.
Secondly, she had a near obsession with Xiao Muting. She could tolerate Xiao Muting being single, but could not tolerate Xiao Muting having an owner.
As she drove around the road, she still couldn't think of a way to see the woman.
With an unintentional glance, she saw the high-end clubhouse owned by the Tang clan. Tang Shaofeng's name, suddenly opened up her thoughts.
Thinking that Xiao Muting and Tang Shaofeng had already gotten back on track, Ye Tong decided to use his relationship with them to find out the "secret" that Xiao Muting was hiding.
Very quickly, she stopped the car at the old house, and the moment her feet touched the ground, she fakely approached him, "Shao Feng ge? Are you there? I am a child student! "
Looking inside, Ye Tong's neck was longer than a giraffe's.
Not long later, Tang Shaofeng appeared at the door, his expression gloomy, his tone cold. "What are you doing here? Also, don't call me brother, we aren't that close. "
Ye Tong had always been a little afraid of the other party, no matter how arrogant she was in front of others, but once her target was Tang Shaofeng, she tactfully restrained herself.
Therefore, even though Tang Shaofeng's attitude was terrible, she did not dare say anything, and could only laugh dryly: "Aiya, Shaofeng, don't say it like that, isn't this too heartless? Didn't we always play together in the past?"
With a disdainful snort, Tang Shaofeng's gaze fell upon him and replied: "Before? I wasn't too familiar with you in the past, so don't try this method! "
Seeing that, Ye Tong was afraid that she would be chased away by the impatient Tang Shaofeng, so she anxiously said: "Yes yes yes, you are not familiar with me, but you are familiar with Xiao Muting, so can't you be considered closer?"
Hearing Ye Tong mention Xiao Muting, Tang Shaofeng's eyes turned cold, and his expression became even more unsightly.
Sensing Tang Shaofeng's strangeness, Ye Tong did not understand what she said wrongly, and looked at her with a wooden face: "Wh-what's wrong, is there something wrong?"
"Ye Tong, are you sincerely looking to be beaten up today?"
Ye Tong shook her head in fear, she then hurriedly shook her hands, looking like she wanted to cry but had no tears to shed, "Shaofeng, I haven't offended you recently, right? Why are you being so fierce towards me?"
took a few steps forward with his icy gaze, scaring Ye Tong to the point that she had to retreat.
He and Xiao Muting had long become enemies, yet the other party intentionally asked him, blocking his way.
Furthermore, even Ye Jianping, from the Ye Family to the Ye Fu Clan, had been deeply hated by him, so how could he possibly be at ease in receiving Ye Tong.
"Shao Feng ge, don't be angry!" I just wanted to ask you about a matter! " Afraid that he would be punched, Ye Tong covered her face while dodging in fear. Her appearance was extremely comical.
Seeing that Ye Tong was as timid as ever, she focused and thought, then stopped.
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be looking for trouble, he asked in disgust, "What do you want to know?"
"Um …" Xiao Muting has gotten a new lease on life, I want to ask you, do you know who the woman he is raising at home is? "
Using an expression as if he was looking at an idiot, he gouged out Ye Tong's eyes. Tang Shaofeng's anger rose once again, "Ye Tong, did your brain get kicked by a donkey? What does Xiao Muting's private life have to do with me! "
Ye Tong was startled, she clenched her fists tightly and did not give up, and continued to ask: "You don't know?"
After exhaling a long breath, Tang Shaofeng felt that his mind was filled with paste.
He was furious to the extreme, but he felt helpless and frustrated instead, "Ye Tong, I have long since drawn a clear line between us. If you don't understand this point, then I have already told you. In the future, if you dare to come and ask me again about anything related to Xiao Muting, I will just treat it as you knocking on my door to provoke me, and you will disgust me on purpose! "
Finally understanding why Tang Shaofeng was angry, Ye Tong drooped her head in disappointment and looked like a rotten eggplant.
Seeing that Ye Tong's face was filled with grief, Tang Shaofeng did not want to bother anymore, and returned to the house with an irritated look.
"Looks like Xiao Muting's heart truly belongs to someone. Otherwise, this stupid Ye Tong wouldn't have been reduced to such a state. But what does that have to do with me? " After he said those words coldly, Tang Shaofeng quickly shifted his attention away, not wanting to waste his time on people and things that had nothing to do with him.
On Saturday, the sun shone brightly and the weather was excellent, so Xiao Muting decided to take Xia Wan for a walk.
"Xia Wan, do you want to go out and relax?"
"Yes!" But didn't you say that the environment here is complicated and I am not allowed to go out as I please? "
Ever since he moved into Xiao Muting's house, Xia Wan felt that she was like a canary being kept in a cage.
The things inside the villa were available, even if there was an empty space, Xiao Muting's driver would buy them all and send them over. Thus, she did not even have a reason to go to the supermarket to shop.
Realizing that Xia Wan was not happy, Xiao Muting frowned. He walked up and comforted him gently: "Don't be sad, I was afraid that you would not be safe from going out alone, and did not say that I would not let you go out. In the future, if you want to go out for a walk, I will accompany you.
Looking up, Xia Wan nodded her head in high spirits, her smile shining even brighter than fireworks, "Alright!"
With a satisfied smile, Xiao Muting extended his hand out towards Xia Wan with blazing eyes, "Let's go."
Originally, Xia Wan wanted to pretend that she did not see it, but when she thought back to the conversation between her and Xiao Muting that day, she felt a little guilty.
As a result, she braced herself and gave it to him. She actually rejected it internally, but she didn't want to make Xiao Muting lose confidence in her ever again.
Seeing that, a clear look of surprise flashed past Xiao Muting's eyes, without any hesitation he held Xia Wan's hand, his lips curled up, the angle of his lips was extremely enchanting.
As they sat in Xiao Muting's luxurious carriage, the two of them started their journey. Xia Wan's mood was pretty good, so on the journey back, she would occasionally reveal a smile of anticipation.
After all, she had been cooped up in her villa for so long that she hadn't had a chance to properly tour the city of Zhenjiang.
Thus, when she finally came out to take a look, her heart was filled with curiosity and excitement.
After passing through a crossroad, Xiao Muting's mobile phone rang, and he expressionlessly stopped his car at the side of the road.
Xia Wan obediently did not bother them, and waited silently.
Just as the two of them were not paying attention to the situation on the road, a hair-raising scene appeared — a black car suddenly came out of nowhere and sped towards them from the side of the road, away from Xia Wan.
When the two cars were not even ten metres apart, Xiao Muting had just noticed the danger.
He shouted loudly, "Xia Wan be careful!" After that, he pulled Xia Wan into his embrace and bent his waist in a hurry, tightly protecting in his embrace.
"Bam!" After the loud noise, Xia Wan raised her head with lingering fear. Seeing that Xiao Muting's head was bleeding, she was so scared that her face had turned pale.
"Xiao Muting! Are you alright? " With his eyes reddened, Xia Wan's face paled and her lips trembled.
Xiao Muting rubbed Xia Wan's head with a lovable smile, and said with a gentle and doting expression, "It's nothing, I was lucky there was time."
"Your head is already bleeding, how can you still laugh? Let's go to the hospital and check it out! " , who had an anxious tone, had a misty look in his eyes. He seemed to be moved, but also seemed to be blaming Xiao Muting for not taking his body seriously.
"Don't worry about me. You're much more important than me!" Staring fixedly at Xia Wan, Xiao Muting poked the location of his chest, "I was just scared to death. If you were to be hit on the head again, you might never remember me …"
At a time like this, Xiao Muting was actually speaking sweet words. Xia Wan was truly shocked, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
She couldn't tell whether she was afraid or moved, but she was thinking: Maybe she was on really good terms with Xiao Muting back then. Otherwise, he wouldn't have treated her like his own life.
asked himself silently: Is she being too unreasonable? Why can't she calmly accept the truth? Didn't she say that she wanted to find her past? Why couldn't she give Xiao Muting some sort of response?
She meaningfully looked at Xiao Muting and actually took the initiative to stretch his arms and embrace him.
Sensing Xia Wan's transformation, Xiao Muting was slightly surprised.
As Xiao Muting forcefully hugged her back, Xia Wan's clear eyes gradually became cloudy. Those uncertain eyes revealed deep and shallow confusion.
Due to the sudden accident, their plans to go out for a stroll were naturally interrupted.
Fortunately, Xiao Muting was only slightly injured, and the pressure and guilt in his heart had been greatly reduced.
When night fell, Xia Wan had already fallen asleep, but she was still meditating in the study room.
Before long, the phone rang and he quickly answered as if he had expected it, "The money has already reached your account. As for the police, use the excuse of the brakes not working. If there's nothing else, don't contact me anymore."
