C202 Asthenia of heart

Li Muqing looked up at Ke Qin and said, "Right now, in your heart, I am still not comparable to an outsider.

Ke Qin also knew that his previous attitude had hurt Li Muqing's heart, but he truly did not believe that he would misjudge Lin Xi …

Ke Qin shook his head, and unconsciously softened his tone, saying, "This is too unbelievable, at least you have to give me some time to accept it."

But Li Muqing only sneered, obviously still dissatisfied with his position.

She said self-deprecatingly, "You still won't believe me no matter how you say it."

Without waiting for Ke Qin's reply, she turned and left the living room, directly entering his bedroom and with a click, locked the door.

She didn't enter the room with Ke Qin, but the guest room.

Li Muqing was using the sleep in a room to express her attitude — the divorce she mentioned earlier was not a joke.

Ke Qin looked at the door that was coldly shut, and his heart suddenly wavered a little.

In case … Did he really misjudge her?

As for Li Muqing who was in the guest room, the moment she locked the door, the sorrowful expression on her face suddenly disappeared, leaving only anger and unwillingness.

Her tears were fake, but her anger was real.

Ke Qin's defense far exceeded her expectations, however, it was fortunate that she understood Ke Qin well enough.

She knew what Ke Qin's weakness was and knew how to use it.

Ke Qin had a strong sense of responsibility. If she brought up the matter of divorce, he would naturally place the blame for it on himself. The more disappointed she was with him, the more guilty he would feel, the less likely he would agree to a divorce.

At the same time, since Ke Qin had doubts about what happened that year, he would definitely investigate. As for her, she had long made arrangements for the "truth", and was only waiting for Ke Qin to take the bait …

As Li Muqing wiped away the tears on her face, she went straight to the bathroom in the house.

After a simple wash, she tiredly lay back on the bed.

She guessed that Lin Xi probably did not know that she was Ke Qin's wife. Otherwise, with the way they acted in the past, Lin Xi would have already told Ke Qin that she was a prisoner.

That was why she wanted to make the first move and plant a seed of doubt in Ke Qin's heart. If that was the case, then what Lin Xi wanted to say next would seem to be less believable …

Originally, she didn't want to get entangled with Lin Xi anymore. It was Lin Xi's fault for pestering her, so she had no other choice but to do these things.

She didn't ask for much, she just hoped that Ke Qin could stay away from Lin Xi and love her forever …

Li Muqing lied on her bed and thought back to her plan, as well as her conversation with Ke Qin just now. She didn't notice anything amiss, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep.

Although Li Muqing was worried about Lin Xi, but because she had a plan in her mind, she didn't really lose sleep, and quickly fell asleep.

Ke Qin, who was still standing stiffly in the living room, on the other hand, was wide awake the entire night due to guilt and confusion.

Ke Qin didn't sleep that night, and didn't even enter his bedroom. He retained the position that Li Muqing had taken when she left last night, and waited motionlessly until daybreak.

During this time, he thought about many things. However, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became. It wasn't until the sun rose that he gradually came to his senses.

This kind of thing could only be imagined, it was impossible to make sense of it. Therefore, what he should do now, was not to think that he had misjudged Lin Xi, but should have investigated the truth.

When the truth was revealed, he would naturally have the answer.

The bright sunlight shone through the window into the living room. Ke Qin squinted his eyes and looked outside the window, then at the guest room that was still closed, guilt filled his heart.

In the end, it was Li Muqing who suffered because she did not fulfill her responsibility as a good husband.

Ke Qin sighed helplessly, he got up and went into the kitchen and made breakfast for Li Muqing before taking his jacket to the set.

The door opened and closed.

Li Muqing listened from the side and waited in the room for a while. When she found that the living room had quietened down and Ke Qin had left, she opened the door and walked out.

When she saw the breakfast that Ke Qin had prepared for her, she couldn't help but smile.

Whether a man loves you or not, he doesn't care about you anymore and only knows what he is willing to do for you.

To be able to cook breakfast for her on the second day after the argument, not only did it mean that Ke Qin cared about her, it also meant that the first step of her plan had worked …

Li Muqing was in high spirits as she enjoyed her exclusive breakfast.

On one side, Li Muqing was eating breakfast, while on the other side, Ke Qin was also on the production team.

He arrived on set earlier today and made himself a pot of strong coffee as soon as he joined the crew.

There was still a full day of high-intensity shooting, and he hadn't slept last night. He needed coffee to refresh himself.

By the time the cast and crew had gathered to prepare for the first shoot of the day, the pot of coffee in front of him had run out.

"Director Ke, the scenes have already been set. Should we inform the actors to start filming?" The assistant director suddenly stepped forward and asked.

"Huh?" Ke Qin was still thinking about what Li Muqing had said last night, and was somewhat absent-minded. When she was questioned, she was stunned for a moment before recovering.

He asked the assistant director, "Is Lin Xi on set yet?"

The assistant director replied honestly, "She's here. She's in the dressing room right now. She's probably already put on her makeup."

Ke Qin nodded, he suddenly put down the empty coffee cup in his hand, stood up and said: "We will start the auction in a while, I have something else to discuss with her first."

After saying that, Ke Qin went straight to the dressing room. The assistant director thought that he wanted to talk about the script with Lin Xi, so he did not mind it too much and turned to busy himself with other things.

Ke Qin arrived at Lin Xi's dressing room, and coincidentally, only Lin Xi was there. The makeup artist went to the side of the room to help the other actors fix their makeup.

When Lin Xi saw Ke Qin walking in, she thought that she was here to rush him to start the auction.

She immediately stood up and said, "Director, I'm ready. I can start filming right now."

Ke Qin waved his hands at her, signalling for her to sit first.

Lin Xi looked at him in confusion. If he didn't come to ask her to filming, what was he going to do?

Ke Qin waited until he was near, then said: "I have something else to ask you."

Lin Xi did not doubt him, she nodded, looked at Ke Qin and said: "Go ahead and ask."

Originally, Ke Qin wanted to directly interrogate Lin Xi, four years ago, whether she had really done anything malicious to him. However, when he met his eyes, he was suddenly unable to speak.

Those eyes were sincere and limpid, clean as if they were free from impurities.

In that moment, Ke Qin felt guilty for doubting Lin Xi's character.

He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that I suddenly remember that I haven't introduced my wife to you yet. When the time comes, we can have a meal together.

Ke Qin said as he took out his own phone, selected a photo of Li Muqing from the album and handed it over to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi was a little curious at first, why would Ke Qin suddenly mention his wife during the filming of the movie. However, he remembered that Ke Qin and his wife were very fond of each other, and even chose Dingke for his wife's sake, not wanting children.

Furthermore, his wife seemed to have misunderstood their relationship when Lin Xi was on the phone with her. Lin Xi thought that when Ke Qin said that they would eat together another day, it was to clarify that there was nothing between the two of them so that they would be at ease.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi accepted the phone with one hand and replied straightforwardly: "Sure."

However, when she took the phone and looked at the picture on the screen, she instantly froze.

The person in the photo was Li Muqing!

Even though four years had passed, in these four years, the change in Li Muqing's appearance wasn't too great, so Lin Xi was still able to recognize her with a single glance.

After Lin Xi recognized Lin Mu, what followed after was the matter of Li Muqing drugging him four years ago …

When Lin Xi thought back to it now, she still felt some lingering fear.

She subconsciously wanted to tell Ke Qin about what had happened in the past, but when she saw Ke Qin's eyes, she hesitated.

When she first met Ke Qin more than a year ago, although she didn't know that his wife was Li Muqing, she did know that he and his wife were very close.

Until now, when people from the entertainment circle mentioned Ke Qin, they would always praise him as a member of the circle, a good for life, a model husband who lived up to his name …

If he were to tell Ke Qin about the things that happened in the past — — the person he loved deeply, suddenly became a criminal who had been to prison — would he be able to accept it?

Lin Xi didn't want to ruin someone's family and happiness.

During the time that Ke Qin had gotten married, he was obviously very happy. Furthermore, in the past few years, Lin Xi had not heard of Li Muqing doing anything out of line …

What if Li Muqing had already changed it?

Li Muqing had done wrong before, but she had more or less been punished. If she knew how to correct her mistakes, then there was no need for him to hold onto what happened in the past and not let go …

After hesitating for a few moments, Lin Xi finally chose not to tell Ke Qin about those things.

Ke Qin had been secretly observing her expression ever since he passed his his phone to Lin Xi.

Seeing Lin Xi's hesitant reaction, he could not help but frown.

Ke Qin was a director, and was very sensitive to people's expression.

He could tell that Lin Xi definitely knew Li Muqing, and that something must have happened between the two of them.

Some bad things.

Ke Qin tried to ask Lin Xi: "What? Looking at your expression, it can't be that you've known each other for a long time, right? "

Lin Xi also knew that she had lost control of herself from her first reaction, so she didn't hide the fact that she knew Li Muqing. She nodded and said, "I do, but I haven't seen her in a few years."

Ke Qin purposely pretended to be surprised and raised his eyebrows, "I didn't think that you and Mu Qing would already know each other. I didn't hear anything from Mu Qing."

"Then did you have a good relationship back then?" He continued to probe.

When Lin Xi heard this question, she could not help but take a deep breath.

Not only was her relationship with Li Muqing not good, they could be considered to be enemies. However, in order to not ruin Ke Qin's relationship with Li Muqing, she hid the truth and said with a smile: "It's alright, I've not really met her, so I guess she can be considered a close friend."

That was to say, they were not familiar with each other.

Since Lin Xi had already said that she was not familiar with her, Ke Qin could not continue asking.

However, just from those two sentences just now, he had already sensed that Lin Xi was deliberately concealing something from him.

Lin Xi's hesitation before answering the questions twice also seemed like a guilty reaction …

Could it be that he had really seen wrongly, that Lin Xi had really hurt Mu Qing back then?

The balance in Ke Qin's heart, suddenly tilted in Li Muqing's direction.
