Chapter 173 What did you want to tell me?
He seemed to be tasting some delicious food.
"I can promise you anything... anything," Mu Chaoran's Adam's apple rolled, his voice unclear, "Xige, I just can't promise you to leave me..."
Lin Xige closed her eyes and felt a little sore in her nose.
She subconsciously wanted to respond to him, to hook her arms around his neck and sink completely into his arms.
But her reason kept reminding her not to sink.
Fortunately, Mu Chaoran only tried it briefly, and when her breathing became rapid and unstable, he let go of her in time.
Just being able to kiss is satisfying.
"Wife." Mu Chaoran said, "After grandpa woke up, he talked to me about some things. He admitted... that he took you away and put you under house arrest in the Mu family's old house."
Lin Xige pulled the corner of her mouth bitterly: "Yes."
"So when I came to the old house, you actually saw everything, right?"
"Well," Lin Xige recalled, "I was by the window on the second floor, watching you arrive and leave. But my voice couldn't reach that room, and you couldn't see me. The glass is soundproof and a one-way mirror, so people inside can see outside, but people outside can't see inside."
The two people were so close to each other, but they were separated for many days.
"Mu Chaoran, I've been waiting. I thought you would find me. You would rush upstairs and search room by room. You would appear in front of me like my peerless hero, rescue me and give me freedom."
"But, I couldn't be free after falling into your hands. But I missed you so much at that time. I wanted to see you very much. I already knew that you had deceived me and knew your identity, but my love for you did not disappear because of that."
Lin Xige lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly: "You fell in love with me later, and it was premeditated to get close to me at the beginning. But Mu Chaoran, my love for you is real from beginning to end."
These words made Mu Chaoran feel upset.
"It's still true now. It's true." He said it over and over again, emphasizing, "My love is no less than yours. It's only more, much, much more."
Lin Xige smiled and said, "I believe in your love. But this cannot cover up the initial deception."
He loves her very much.
She was afraid of the dark, so at the end of a party, when she was busy with work, or when she was busy, she would try to get home before 10 o'clock in the evening.
This can't be acted out.
Perhaps, as he was acting, Mu Chaoran got too deeply into the role and was unable to extricate himself from it and integrate into the role of a good husband.
"...Let's not talk about this anymore." Lin Xige changed the subject, "Grandpa Mu is my elder, he wants to see me, I better go."
Mu Chaoran lowered his voice and said, "Don't force yourself. If you don't want to go, then don't go."
"Go."
Maybe Mr. Mu has something to tell her.
What's more, the old man is in poor health and is in hospital. As his granddaughter-in-law, she should visit him no matter what.
Mu Chaoran nodded and moved his lips closer again.
Not kissing enough.
Lin Xige simply covered his mouth with her hand.
"Are you really planning to let Yu Pan join the Mu Group?" Lin Xige asked, "and leave her in Haicheng?"
"Of course it's true. How can I joke with you?"
As Mu Chaoran spoke, he held her hand and kissed it on his lips again and again.
"It depends on her own wishes. If she doesn't want to stay, I can't tie her down. If she is in Haicheng, you have a companion and a place to go. You can meet and chat when you are free. Besides, the career prospects in Haicheng are definitely better than in Su City."
Although he has his own selfish motives, what he said is indeed true.
Lin Xige thought for a moment and said, "Yu Pan is going to the Mu Corporation tomorrow. I'll ask for her opinion when she comes back."
"it is good."
"I'll go to the hospital with you tomorrow." Lin Xige asked, "Do you need to prepare anything?"
You can't go empty-handed.
Flowers? Fruit?
"I've arranged everything," Mu Chaoran grabbed her waist and held her deeper and tighter in his arms, "You don't have to worry about it."
He also didn't know what his grandfather wanted to say to Lin Xige.
However, grandpa definitely knows his limits.
Maybe... the truth about Lin Xige's life experience will be revealed tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Mu Chaoran's heart tightened and sank.
This is what he worries about the most and is the most troublesome thing for him, and it is also his biggest lie.
How about, now, he should confess first?
Mu Chaoran's Adam's apple rolled and his palms began to sweat.
He couldn't hesitate or delay any longer.
I should have told Lin Xige a long time ago that he was too weak and did things without taking responsibility.
"Wife..." Mu Chaoran said, his voice trembling a little, "Actually, there are some things I should talk to you about."
Lin Xige looked at him: "What do you want to say?"
"I……"
Mu Chaoran's nervousness was so obvious that beads of sweat began to appear not only on his palms but also on his forehead.
He's like this before he even starts talking.
Lin Xige felt strange: "What's wrong with you?"
She raised her hand and wiped the sweat off his face.
Is it hot? Why doesn't she feel it?
Mu Chaoran's Adam's apple rolled again, and he stared into Lin Xige's eyes. After a few seconds, he looked away again.
His breathing became rapid.
"Mu Chaoran?" Lin Xige was even more confused, "You are..."
Before he could finish his words, his cell phone rang.
It was Song Yupan who called.
"Yeah, Yu Pan is looking for me." Lin Xige shook the screen, "I'll go see her first."
She was about to leave, but Mu Chaoran grabbed her wrist.
"Let's talk about it when I come back. I don't want to keep Yu Pan waiting for too long." Lin Xige replied, pushing his hand away, "Go take a shower."
Anyway, the two of them have one night, so they can afford to spend a little longer.
Lin Xige walked out of the bedroom without looking back and closed the door gently.
Mu Chaoran was left standing there alone, with his head slightly lowered, the loose hair in front of his forehead falling down, covering his eyebrows and eyes.
He also has this depressed side.
The little bit of courage that I had just mustered up has now vanished into thin air, not a trace left.
Mu Chaoran was very scared.
Once Lin Xige knew her life experience and his real purpose of going to Su City to marry her, how would she view him?
Now the two of them are in such a bad situation...
Mu Chaoran leaned weakly against the wall, raised his head and let out a long sigh.
after an hour.
Lin Xige returned to the bedroom.
Mu Chaoran was half leaning against the head of the bed, reading a book, his hair slightly wet and his upper body bare.
Hearing the noise, he looked up at her.
"Have you finished talking with Song Yupan?"
"Yes." Lin Xige nodded, "Now my time is all yours."
As she walked towards the big bed, she asked, "What did you want to tell me? You can tell me now."
Her eyes were as clear and pure as ever.
Mu Chaoran's thin lips moved.
He wanted to say "nothing", but he was worried that Lin Xige would think he was playing a trick on her.
