âI was only asking a question. Itâs no skin off your back if you answer.â Mu Xiaoxiao glared at Chris, expressing her displeasure. When he was at the castle he had very kind to her. Why was he treating her like this now?
Chris seemed to be able to see through her. He smirked and said, âWhy should I answer your questions when you asked me in such a rude manner?â
Mu Xiaoxiao froze for a moment.
Yin Shaojie stepped up and said, âSorry, Xiaoxiao tends to be brash. Weâre just curious for an answer. There was no engagement party at all, right?â
He asked bluntly, without giving Chris the opportunity to reject him.
Mu Xiaoxiao stared at Chris as she waited for the answer.
Chris cast a sidelong glance at her. With a faint smirk, he stood up and said to her, âNo comment.â
Mu Xiaoxiaoâs little hands clenched into fists as she glared at him.
Chris looked at her with great interest. He walked over to the trash bin, and put out the cigarette, and threw the cigarette butt inside.
âI donât feel very good right now, so I donât want to answer any questions.â He turned back and looked at the two.
Upon hearing that, Mu Xiaoxiao was silent.
As Annieâs fiancé, how did he feel after seeing Annie confess to Ye Sijue earlier?
Suddenly, she felt bad for him.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at him and asked, âAre you waiting for Annie here?â
âYeah. Iâm waiting to take her home.â Chris answered this time.
Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned and didnât know what to say.
Chris had seen Ye Sijue and Annie confess to each other earlier and yet he was still at the hospital waiting for her.
Mu Xiaoxiao thought Chris was an idiot. Suddenly, he didnât seem so annoying.
Chris turned away from them, looked up the blue sky, sighed, and said, âYou must be thinking about how I feel after seeing that scene earlier, right?âhe said mildly, his large hand pressed to his chest.
âEver since that moment, my heart has been aching. It is as though there is a downpour inside.â
Mu Xiaoxiao really couldnât stand hearing that. She went beside Yin Shaojie and poked him with her pinkie.
She regretted talking to Chris.
Although she didnât like Chris, she realized that his situation was also a sad one. His fiancée, who he had known since they were kids, had fallen in love with another man. He must have been filled with excitement as he prepared the romantic engagement party but her fiancée confessed to another man on the day before.
This would be a huge blow to any man.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
From Chrisâs point of view, he wasnât in the wrong.
There was nothing wrong with fighting for the girl he loved.
Annie had hidden the fact that she was in love with another man from him so it was understandable that Chris tried so hard to keep Annie for himself.
Anyone would want the person that they loved to reciprocate their feelings.
Was that wrong?
Of course it wasnât wrong!
