Chapter 1356. Racked Her Brains? 6
“We’ll leave this for later, as long as we know what to do.” Mu Yuchen quickly gathered his thoughts. “I think that Qi Lei’s not such a rash person either.”
Then, he slowly got up and walked towards the window as he silently looked out to watch the gloomy sky.
Xi Xiaye was stunned. She turned around and silently watched his figure. As she did, she suddenly felt a pang of loneliness. She thought about it, sighed to herself, then got up and walked over too.
A soft touch came from behind him. Before he could react, a pair of thin arms showed up around his waist, and he felt faint warmth from behind too.
“Mu Yuchen, do you…feel very, very tired?” As her voice came through, there was a hint of sadness for him that could not be concealed.
He paused and then smiled. Suddenly, he reached out to hold tightly onto her little hand around his waist. His low and sensitive voice came, “I’m alright. Compared to before, I’m much better.”
“Sometimes, I really can’t help but lament about how we seem to have fate to worry about, but it’s also because of that that we live with a clearer conscience. It’s fine to be a little more tired now. It’s so that everyone will do better in time. I will always be by your side no matter where you are…” she said, and her arms around his waist suddenly tightened. “I can’t do much, but…”
Before she could finish, the man before her already pulled her arms away and suddenly turned around to peer down at her.
Xi Xiaye was surprised by his sudden movement. Before she could react, his long fingers combed through her slightly messy long hair and touched her exquisitely beautiful little face. His voice was soft and gentle as he replied, “You’ve done too much already. I wish I could give you everything I have. Instead, it’s me who can’t give you enough. I keep forgetting to ask, from the day you married me, have you ever felt wronged?”
