Because of the "car accident" event that Xiao Muting deliberately planned, his relationship with Xia Wan slowly improved.
Although the two of them still didn't seem to be close, Xia Wan was already trying to accept the other party's feelings.
Even though she knew that she couldn't find any sense of belonging and identity with Xiao Muting, but with her unfamiliarity with even her own family, the only way she could grasp onto peace and stability was to obtain it from Xiao Muting.
Therefore, since the relationship between them was a foregone conclusion, and taking a step forward could reduce the burden on her heart, why did she keep retreating?
Thus, the two of them tacitly drew close to each other, just like a ship drifting on the sea. They could only see each other. The only difference was that Xiao Muting had taken the initiative, while Xia Wan had been in a passive position; one was because she had been planning for a long time, and the other was because she had no other choice.
After waking up in the morning, he realized that his period of rest had arrived. Xia Wan went to Xiao Muting's room with a blushing face.
"Um …" Can I go out? "
With a smile, he frowned. Xiao Muting had also just woken up and the blurry look in his eyes had not faded. "Where to?"
Scratching his head, Xia Wan looked nervous and uncomfortable.
After holding it in for a while, she lowered her head and said, "I want to buy something!"
Laughing softly, Xiao Muting watched Xia Wan's every move helplessly. "Alright, I'll accompany you."
Hearing that, Xia Wan shook her hand repeatedly, she was anxious and uncomfortable, "No, no, no, I can go by myself!"
Xiao Muting raised his eyebrows suspiciously as he studied Xia Wan. He did not understand why Xia Wan did not allow him to accompany her.
Looking straight at the tip of his shoes, Xia Wan couldn't tell her that she was going to buy tampons.
As a result, when she could not hear Xiao Muting's answer, she was also unwilling to make a sound, and the atmosphere suddenly became strange and quiet.
"No, you can go out by yourself. I can't be at ease. As for what you want to buy, I'll just let senior Chen go." Observing Xia Wan's expression carefully, Xiao Muting's attitude was firm.
But since Old Chen was also of the opposite sex, and there were people that Xia Wan was even less familiar with, she would definitely not listen to Xiao Muting's arrangements.
Xia Wan's head was shaking like a rattle drum, her cheeks burning hot as she tried to think of a way to pass the situation so that she wouldn't have to face such an awkward conversation.
Sighing softly, Xiao Muting saw that Xia Wan had continuously avoided his gaze and asked helplessly: "Xia Wan, are you still going to keep me at a distance of one thousand miles? It's just a purchase, why can't you let me stay with you? "
It had to be said that Xiao Muting was too cunning, he could easily hit Xia Wan's weak spot.
Guilt and guilt rose in his heart once again. Xia Wan had no other choice but to frown, and confess with a flushed face: "My physiological period has arrived."
Stunned, Xiao Muting laughed bitterly.
Taking a few steps forward, he caressed Xia Wan's soft hair, "Idiot, why would you be embarrassed to speak about this? "Since you're not feeling well, I'll buy it for you."
"Ah?" "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" He really wanted to find a hole and hide in it. Xia Wan's voice was like a mosquito's, even her ears were burning.
However, Xiao Muting didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this at all. On the contrary, the more he saw that Xia Wan was uncomfortable, the clearer his smile became.
Perhaps, he had misunderstood Xia Wan's shyness to be his bashfulness, but the reason why Xia Wan was at a loss was because Xia Wan was not prepared to reveal all of her privacy to him.
"What's wrong with it? I'll go out for a while, you should go back to your bed and rest. If you have anything to do, you should call me.
Xia Wan nodded in agreement. She ran away gloomily, feeling that if she stayed in front of Xiao Muting for even a second longer, she would be drowned by the other party's warm gaze.
Closing the door, she let out a long breath and leaned against the wall with a troubled expression.
What should I do? I've already tried my best to force myself to adapt to this kind of relationship, but it still didn't work. Where did the problem go …
When Xia Wan was worrying about the future, Xiao Muting had already driven to the supermarket in his car.
Along the way, he was in a good mood. From time to time, the corner of his mouth raised into a smile.
When he was picking out the tampons, he was not sure which one Xia Wan would use, so he threw a pile of them into the shopping cart.
When he paid the bill, it was thanks to his sultry looks that prevented the cashier from seeing him as a pervert.
He was floating all the way until he walked out of the supermarket. If not for meeting with Tang Shaofeng, he would probably be able to maintain his cheerful mood.
With a complicated expression, Xiao Muting looked at Tang Shaofeng, who was not far away. His thin lips were pursed tightly, and his gaze was deep.
After realizing that Xiao Muting was standing still in his original position, Tang Shaofeng had clearly noticed the other party, but he simply brushed past Xiao Muting as if he did not see it at all.
It was as if he didn't want to interact with Xiao Muting at all, even if the other party had once been his most loyal brother.
"Shaofeng, it's been so long. How have you been?" He turned his body slightly, and without knowing what Xiao Muting was thinking, he actually took the initiative to greet him.
One had to know, he had already done a lot of things that let Tang Shaofeng down, and this had led to the two brothers breaking up completely.
Right now, he was even secretly poking at Tang Shaofeng to stop his from reuniting with him, so he should be feeling guilty and should have taken the initiative to hide.
His feet paused, Tang Shaofeng turned around and used an extremely sarcastic gaze to size him up, "Yo, isn't this the famous Radix Sorbiae?"
Frowning, Xiao Muting forced a smile and said: "Has everything been well at home recently? How was your life with Xia Wan? "
Narrowing his eyes, Tang Shaofeng's gaze was clear and cold, and instantly carried enmity towards Xiao Muting.
The ridicule on his face grew deeper, and he sneered and ridiculed: "Hey Xiao Muting, when will you not think about other people's wives?"
Xiao Muting's dry smile froze, and his two fingers that were hanging on the side of his body curled slightly.
In public, he took the initiative to greet Tang Shaofeng, but was ruthlessly humiliated by him.
If it were anyone else, they would not have been able to back down.
But Tang Shaofeng had always loved and hated people who were distinct, and when facing his enemies, he never had the thought of showing mercy.
Inadvertently, he saw Xiao Muting holding onto a big bag of female goods, and said meaningfully: "Hehe, looks like Ye Tong is speaking the truth."
Hearing this, Xiao Muting's brows jumped, and a trace of undetectable guilt had just flashed across his eyes.
He, who had an annoyed expression, seemed to be complaining to Ye Tong for talking too much, and even went over to Tang Shaofeng's place to gossip.
Capturing the anger on Xiao Muting's face, Tang Shaofeng glanced at him with contempt, and then warned him faintly: "Since you met a woman that makes you waste so much time, then don't always worry about other people's wives …"
With that, Tang Shaofeng's eyes turned sour, he glanced at the shopping bag in Xiao Muting's hands again, and then strode out.
Perhaps the reason why his tone was so serious wasn't just because he was unable to forgive the other party, but also because he was envious.
Even someone like Xiao Muting, who didn't know how to repay kindness, could reap such blessings, yet he was immersed in the pain of not being able to find his wife.
Watching Tang Shaofeng as he gradually walked further and further away, Xiao Muting said to himself in a thought-provoking voice, "Shaofeng, Xia Wan, she is mine to begin with. "Right now, I am only trying to regain my original happiness …"
In the Ye Family's mansion, Ye Tong had been throwing a tantrum for the past few days.
The servant and Ye’s mother didn't know what was wrong with her, but she had been getting more and more angry recently.
But even if everyone treated Ye Tong like she was the moon, she still carried a vicious aura around, and disliked everyone.
In the afternoon, after another round of beatings and venting, she angrily walked out of her house.
As he drove through the streets, he scared the passerby and gave way to him. Ye Tong did not laugh wickedly like she usually did, but instead became more and more lonely and angry.
She stepped on the brakes and punched the steering wheel, but was so angry that she bared her teeth.
, whose face was filled with grievance, cried hysterically like a child, "Xiao Muting! Why do you like other people? I've been waiting for you to change your mind, can't you see? Woo woo … * I don't want you to marry another woman and have children. You are mine. "No way!"
She really wanted to know who the fox spirit that had bewitched Xiao Muting was, but she couldn't see him at all.
Ye Tong's eyes were red and swollen, the expression in her eyes sinister and terrifying.
Clenching her fists tightly, she gritted her teeth and said, "Why am I the only one feeling uncomfortable? Everyone is fine! Why! "
Right after she finished speaking, the image of Lu Yaoyao suddenly appeared in her mind. This woman who had also fought with her over Xiao Muting before.
Thus, with a sinister smile on her face, she headed towards Lu Yaoyao's house without hesitation.
Seeing Ye Tong, Lu Yaoyao's face immediately turned black.
Her face was full of wariness and disgust, and she closed the door without saying anything further.
But Ye Tong was unwilling, she squeezed in with her hands and feet nimbly, then looked around with a look of disgust, "Tsk tsk, what a poor air!"
"Miss Ye, my temple is too small for a great Buddha like you. Please get lost, as far as you can get away from here!" Seeing that Ye Tong was obviously here to cause trouble, Lu Yaoyao was not someone to be trifled with, and was not used to the young miss.
Biting his lips, Ye Tong's face angrily gouged out a glance at Lu Yaoyao. Just as she was about to explode with rage, she suddenly burst out into a smile.
The other party's unimaginable change in expression made Lu Yaoyao extremely fearful. She only used a "Are you crazy" gaze and looked at Ye Tong vigilantly.
"Do you know that Xiao Muting is getting married?"
"How can this be …" She subconsciously retorted, but when Lu Yaoyao reacted to what the other party said, her expression suddenly froze and her voice came to a halt.
Seeing that, Ye Tong easily judged that Lu Yaoyao still liked Xiao Muting.
She didn't come for nothing, she provoked him with a look of contempt and sickness, "It seems you don't understand, he doted on that woman to the sky, he didn't even let her out the door, he did everything himself, he never goes to a bar or nightclub again, he doesn't socialize with any woman. What, do you think he has completely changed his personality? "
With a miserable self-deprecating smile in his eyes, Lu Yaoyao's heart undulated.
But since Ye Tong was still in front of her, she could only pretend to be indifferent: "Does it have anything to do with me? Ye Tong, this is my house, please leave immediately! "
"Hehe, are you afraid that I will see you cry? Admit it, Lu Yaoyao did not love any of us, the person he truly cares about is currently living in his house! "
Blood gushed out of his heart, yet Ye Tong did his best to rub salt into her wound. Lu Yaoyao could not endure it any longer, and with bloodshot eyes, he picked up the baseball bat beside his hand.
