These past few days she has indeed consciously distanced herself from Tang Munian, because she now suspects that the villain is Feng Chuli.

Chu Qingxuan frowned. She thought about what the villains had done to her, but perhaps she was overthinking it.

Putting down the script, Chu Qingxuan walked towards Tang Munian, intending to have a proper talk with him.

Sitting next to Tang Munian, Chu Qingxuan nudged him. A flash of surprise crossed Tang Munian's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He asked impatiently, "Why are you looking for me instead of studying the script properly?"

Chu Qingxuan wasn't angry. She calmly said, "I have some questions I don't understand, and I'd like to ask you about them."

"Ask away."

"In the script, the male lead hurts the female lead for his own benefit, even though he knows she will hate him, he still chooses the same path."

"So, Tang Munian, if you were the male lead, would you make the same choice?"

This is a question she has been pondering.

Upon hearing this, Tang Munian said to Chu Qingxuan, "No one is perfect. I am not the male lead, and you are not the female lead, so this kind of thing will not happen. Your question is invalid."

I will do everything in my power to protect you and prevent you from getting hurt.

Chu Qingxuan smiled gently and raised an eyebrow. "I understand."

Chu Qingxuan stood up and reminded Tang Munian, "You haven't been feeling well these past few days. You must have had another attack. Remember to take your medicine."

The warmth felt in her palm was from Tang Munian holding Chu Qingxuan's hand.

Chu Qingxuan glanced at the two holding hands, then looked up at Tang Munian.

"Don't you really know why I have such a bad temper?"

Chu Qingxuan shook her head, "Wasn't I having a relapse?"

He pulled Chu Qingxuan into his arms. Listening to Tang Munian's heartbeat, Chu Qingxuan subconsciously pushed Tang Munian away and stood up on her own.

After pushing Tang Munian away, Chu Qingxuan saw a bitter smile on Tang Munian's lips. "You see, this is the reason."

"I don't know why you've been rejecting me lately. I felt bad when you pushed me away."

Chu Qingxuan lowered her eyes, sighed softly, then squatted down and said gently, "Tang Munian, I used to have someone I liked very much, but he almost killed me. I learned some things, so..."

"Do you like Zhang Chao that much?" Tang Munian interrupted Chu Qingxuan coldly.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingxuan looked at Tang Munian in confusion, "Huh?"

"You know Zhang Chao has never been a good person. You should forget about him and start a new life."

Chu Qingxuan: "..."

Tang Munian, this is a misunderstanding.

However, Feng Chuli and Zhang Chao seem to be no different.

She smiled slightly and reached out to pat Tang Munian's head. "Don't worry, that was in the past. I've completely given up on it now."

Tang Munian then smiled.

Chu Qingxuan smiled when she saw Tang Munian's smiling face.

We'll talk about it after we confirm that Feng Chuli is the villain, especially since there's another candidate for the villain.

Being with the Demon King isn't so bad.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Tang Munian asked Qi Ling to give Chu Qingxuan a holiday, planning to take her out for a trip.

On the way, Chu Qingxuan glanced at the Rolls-Royce and muttered, "That car is quite nice."

The next day, Chu Qingxuan saw a car parked downstairs. Tang Munian hugged her and said, "Look, didn't you like it? I bought one for you."

Chu Qingxuan sighed, thinking of Tang Munian, that spendthrift son.
