You wouldn't believe it, but they were thrown into the river that night, and soon after, fishermen on the riverbank pulled them out.

Having survived, Mu Xing's first thought upon reaching the shore was revenge.

New grudges added to old ones.

He knew that man was no ordinary person.

He also knew that the few men sent tonight were probably not even enough to fill his teeth.

However, this was only the first battle, and he wanted to give him a warning.

At this moment, the wine glass she was holding swayed gently. Mu Xing looked at her and saw that she had a worried look on her face.

He frowned, and couldn't help but reach out and pat her shoulder.

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you."

"Thank you, Brother Mu Xing."

As she spoke, Liang Man coughed twice.

Upon seeing this, Mu Xing frowned even more deeply. "Why are you still coughing?"

I've been taking medicine for several days now.

Liang Man caught a cold after going into the water that day.

She had a fever for two days after following him to the north of the city.

Mu Xing felt sorry for her. Whenever he saw her in pain, he wanted nothing more than to tear that man apart and bring him before her to kowtow and apologize.

"Here, have a glass of water."

Turning around, Mu Xing poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her.

Liang Man took it, her eyes fixed on him.

After watching for a while, Mu Xing also noticed that something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" He touched his face. "Is there something on my face?"

"No." Liang Man shook her head, her eyes lowered, looking preoccupied.

"What exactly happened?"

I don't like her like this; she wasn't like this before.

I would be very confident and cheerful.

It wasn't like this before; he was always worried and preoccupied.

"Liang Man, look at me."

Putting down his wine glass, Mu Xing grabbed Liang Man's shoulders with both hands.

At that moment, the other person looked up, and their eyes met.

She saw deep love in his eyes.

How does it feel?

In the past, she would have wanted to run away.

But now...

Liang Man suddenly stood on tiptoe and reached out to hug the other person's neck.

While Mu Xing was slightly taken aback, Liang Man leaned forward and kissed him on the lips.

"..."

"Brother Mu Xing".

"Liang Man, you..."

What's wrong with her?

Could it be that she has fallen for the older brother?

The man froze, staring at her so close yet remaining silent for a long time.

Liang Man felt embarrassed and quickly retreated, looking completely at a loss.

"Brother Mu Xing, there are some things I've never understood."

"..."

"Brother Mu Xing?"

Unable to get a response from him, Liang Man looked up and saw him touching his lips.

The moment the woman looked over, Mu Xing immediately snapped out of his daze.

"What?"

"Brother Mu Xing, what did you mean by what you said that night?"

Which sentence?

Mu Xing was deep in thought, seemingly unaware of what she was talking about.

Liang Man became even more nervous.

After thinking it over, she finally gritted her teeth and said directly, "Tell me, what do you mean by saying that Ah Chen is taking over your body?"

Whether it was because of her own illusions or not, after that day, Liang Man would unconsciously associate him with the former Mu Chen whenever she saw him.

Sometimes she even felt that she saw Mu Chen's shadow in Mu Xing.

She felt she must be crazy.

But that's just how she is, full of anticipation.

Just now, her gaze towards him was excessively intense.

Mu Xing frowned, only then remembering this matter.

"No." Now he didn't dare admit it again. "I was just making things up."

Mu Xing turned his face away from her gaze and tried to leave, but the woman suddenly grabbed his hand.

"I don't believe you. You're the one, aren't you?"

Impossible. Nobody would joke about something this serious.

He must have had a reason for saying that.
