Before Mu Xiaoyu could react, Li Chenxu's kiss was quite fierce, and he bit her lip with the first stroke.
It was as if the kiss carried all of Li Chenxu's anger, leaving her completely defenseless.
Mu Xiaoyu's body was already immersed in the moment, but for some reason, her mind became increasingly clear. At this moment, she should be angry, she should feel wronged. But instead, she felt a profound sadness in Li Chenxu's fierce kiss. That emotion seemed contagious, making her heart feel as if it had been instantly gripped in someone's hand, aching terribly.
She was never like this before. When did she change? She would be happy because of Li Chenxu's protection, her heart would race because of Li Chenxu's gentleness, she would feel wronged because of Li Chenxu's anger, and she would feel heartbroken because of his sadness.
All of this was unprecedented...
Mu Xiaoyu was not an innocent little girl. Almost as soon as these thoughts appeared in her mind, she realized that her feelings for Li Chenxu were different from before.
But what's different? Could it be... that she's fallen for him?
Just as Mu Xiaoyu was filled with doubt, Li Chenxu suddenly released her. Slightly panting, Li Chenxu moved slightly away from Mu Xiaoyu, his deep, unfathomable eyes fixed on her. He said in a hoarse voice, "Mu Xiaoyu, I'll say it again: no matter what you think, you'd better give up the idea of divorce. Otherwise… I don't even know what I might do…"
It's unclear whether those last words were meant for Mu Xiaoyu or for himself. After saying that, Li Chenxu simply picked Mu Xiaoyu up and carried her upstairs to their room.
Mu Xiaoyu knew what was going to happen next. Although she was a little nervous, she was no longer as resistant as before, and even... had an expectation she had never had before.
The night was still long, but for both Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu, it was a sleepless night...
When Mu Xiaoyu woke up again, the sun was already high in the sky. The soreness in her body was much better than last time, but Li Chenxu's emotions had fluctuated too much last night, even more frantically than usual. Now that she was awake, Mu Xiaoyu still felt uncomfortable.
She didn't rush to get up, but lay in bed, constantly replaying everything from yesterday in her mind.
Both she and Li Chenxu acted impulsively yesterday. But there was one thing Mu Xiaoyu remembered very clearly: her state of mind.
She knew very well that when her father asked her to divorce Li Chenxu, she felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart. Feeling Li Chenxu's sadness also pained her deeply.
Yesterday, when she thought about these things, she was still somewhat confused. Now, when she is clear-headed and recalls everything from yesterday, the fog has lifted, and she understands what really happened.
She... seems to really like Li Chenxu, though she can't quite put her finger on how much.
But one thing she was very clear about was that she didn't want to divorce Li Chenxu. She wanted to do the most intimate things with him, to have their own baby, and to spend the rest of her life with him...
As if imagining a wonderful future with Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu's lips unconsciously curled up. However, thinking of Li Chenxu's anger last night, the corners of her mouth instantly drooped back down.
The thought that their hard-won relationship had been ruined in just one night gave Mu Xiaoyu a headache.
She couldn't help but rub her tired temples, but those things were in the past, and there was no point in dwelling on them. The most important thing right now was how to repair her relationship with Li Chenxu.
After her rebirth, during the time she spent peacefully living with Li Chenxu, she suddenly gained some understanding of him.
Li Chenxu is too guarded, and he has built too heavy a cage around himself. It took her a long time to gradually lower Li Chenxu's guard against her and allow the two of them to coexist peacefully.
What happened yesterday has brought their relationship back to square one overnight. Now, repairing her relationship with Li Chenxu will likely be even more difficult than before...
Because of this incident, Mu Xiaoyu felt extremely depressed. She took a cold shower and then went downstairs.
It was the weekend, and she had assumed Li Chenxu would be there too. But when she went downstairs, she didn't see him at all.
"Where is Li...Li Chenxu?"
Mu Xiaoyu looked around downstairs, even the garden outside, but couldn't see Li Chenxu. She felt a void in her heart and a terrible ache.
Last night's conflict between Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu was so intense that even today, the servants at the villa are still somewhat apprehensive. Hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, they quickly and meekly replied, "Madam, the master went out early this morning..."
After hearing the first part, Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to listen to the rest. Of course, Li Chenxu was so angry yesterday, how could he possibly stay home today?
Perhaps because of a change in her state of mind, Li Chenxu's image kept appearing in Mu Xiaoyu's mind all day long. Li Chenxu's gentle appearance, Li Chenxu's angry appearance, and Li Chenxu's sad appearance.
Even though it hadn't been a day since they last met, Mu Xiaoyu already missed him.
She wanted to see Li Chenxu and tell him that she was wrong and shouldn't have done what she did yesterday.
However, Mu Xiaoyu knew very well that she didn't have the courage to say these words. Before, when she didn't understand her own feelings, it was nothing to submit to Li Chenxu.
But now, she doesn't dare.
She was afraid to see the rejection in Li Chenxu's eyes, afraid that her apology would be useless.
Sometimes, human emotions are like that; they can make people brave and strong, or they can make them timid...
Inside MIRROR bar —
Today is the weekend, and Li Chenxu originally planned to go out with Mu Xiaoyu and even planned how to give her a surprise.
He had specifically asked his assistant Lin to inquire beforehand, and learned that women of all ages love surprises. So he was still thinking of giving Mu Xiaoyu a surprise on the weekend so that she would gradually fall in love with him.
However, before any action could be taken, his relationship with Mu Xiaoyu returned to a freezing point.
Thinking of this, Li Chenxu couldn't help but chuckle to himself and downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.
