Chapter 1370. Dead End 5
Even though saying these things would make him unhappy, she could not help it. Then, she carefully looked at him from the corner of her eye.
While this man usually doted on her and loved her very much, there were still some things that she could not touch. Apart from her being his lover and becoming one of the untouchables to him, his brotherhood was also a forbidden zone.
So, as he listened, that handsome of face of his did not look too pleased, but he did not say anything in response.
When Xi Xiaye saw that, she could not help but feel her heart ache. She softly said, “Don’t be angry. I’m sorry…”
He then relaxed and his lowered voice was slightly raspy as he replied, “Don’t say that…I know what you mean. We were once brothers, and he wasn’t all that bad. When I was 15, I went to the factory with Grandfather for an inspection and was accidentally locked in the cold storage. If it weren’t for Lingtian going around to look for me and opening the door to the storage in time, you might not have met me today. Lingtian didn’t realize this, but I couldn’t forget it. No matter what, I owe him. He’s not inherently bad. He was just like Aunt: a very easygoing person. I didn’t want to believe that he would become someone like that, even if the truth is hard for me to accept.”
Mu Yuchen rarely spoke about these things with Xi Xiaye. Now, as she listened to him, she only felt waves of pain for him, the indescribable kind that was hard to swallow, a stifled emotion that could even be felt as if something was rising from the back of her throat.
“Mr. Mu, but don’t you forget also that sometimes, in love or in other relationships, it’s the same. It can change many things, just like you and me. As long as it’s you, I’ll do anything! Because I’m just a woman…” Xi Xiaye said while her starry eyes contained deep, moving sentiments.
She loved him deeply to the bones. What would she not do for him?
Xi Xiaye thought that perhaps Mu Lingtian could have felt the same way. Actually, it might not have been for the so-called riches, but for Gu Lingsha.
