Chapter 118: Jumping into the Yellow River Can't Wash Away
Gu Chenyi's excitement at this moment overwhelmed his rationality.
He didn't expect to meet the haunted Mu Yuan here.
This touch of surprise diluted all his unhappiness at being forced to accompany Wang Ruier shopping.
Mu Yuan pulled away his hand and said in a cold voice, "What do you have to say that you can't say it outside?"
After she said that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Gu Chenyi got anxious and took a step forward, blocking the door with his back.
With his hands tied behind his back, he said in a hurry, "I just want to talk to you alone. I don't want to be disturbed."
Mu Yuan thought of Wang Ruier just now, frowning even deeper, and took the initiative to avoid suspicion: "You are dating someone now, you shouldn't be chatting with me alone in this airtight place, it will be misunderstood."
Gu Chenyi was suddenly at a loss: "No, I have nothing to do with Wang Ruier! You misunderstood!"
Mu Yuan said calmly: "Whatever relationship you have with her has nothing to do with me, but now, if you don't have anything serious to say, please move aside. I want to go home."
"Mu Yuan!" Gu Chenyi was anxious and angry.
Afraid of being misunderstood: "Don't believe me, she was just forced by my family to go on a blind date, but I don't have any feelings for her..."
Mu Yuan interrupted him: "I said, this has nothing to do with me."
Gu Chenyi's red hair lost its luster in the dimly lit stairwell.
Along with it, his once unrestrained demeanor disappeared.
He stared at her closely and whispered, "Are you still with Huo Min?"
Mu Yuan blinked her eyelashes several times, and said in a cold tone: "This is my business."
"Even if he has a new girlfriend, it doesn't matter to you?"
Mu Yuan, who was the 'new girlfriend' herself, was silent for two seconds before she said, "Anyway, this is my business. Do you have anything else to say? If not, please move aside."
Gu Chenyi was extremely dissatisfied: "What's so good about him that makes you follow him so wholeheartedly?"
Mu Yuan had a headache. If she was guilty, please let God punish her.
Instead of being tortured by Gu Chenyi here.
"I don't want to discuss my personal affairs with you. Get out of the way." She lost some of her patience and her tone became colder.
Seeing Gu Chenyi standing still.
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes were frost-covered: "Will you let me go?"
Gu Chenyi stared at her intently for a long while, then compromised and reluctantly stepped back: "I ask... don't be angry."
Mu Yuan's expression then brightened slightly.
Just lift your foot and go out.
"Chen Yi?" The female voice coming from outside the door stopped her in her tracks.
Her pupils suddenly shrank and she immediately looked at Gu Chenyi.
Wang Ruier is outside.
She absolutely couldn't see it. She and Gu Chenyi were alone in this confined space.
Otherwise, you can’t wash yourself clean even if you jump into the Yellow River.
Gu Chenyi didn't care: "Ignore her."
Mu Yuan wanted to strangle him to death. She was angry, but that didn't stop her from whispering, "Stop talking!"
She looked around, made a quick decision, and chose to go down the stairs.
To prevent Wang Ruier from pushing the door open and running into her.
But just as he turned around, he was immediately stopped by Gu Chenyi: "Where are you going?"
Mu Yuan rolled her eyes at him: "Go down the stairs and leave here!"
Gu Chenyi said sternly, "Don't pay attention to her. She will definitely leave if she doesn't hear the response."
Mu Yuan ignored him.
Just take the next step.
The cell phone suddenly rang.
The sound is particularly loud in enclosed stairwells.
Mu Yuan has always been silent.
I just went out to play today, and I was worried that I would miss a call if I couldn't hear the sound, so I turned on the volume.
But now, she regretted it.
I regret it very much.
Wang Ruier, who hadn't heard any response, was about to turn around and leave.
The sudden ringing of the cell phone interrupted her.
She wondered and walked towards the stairs.
Press the door handle.
Push open the door.
There was no one behind the door.
She leaned in and looked around, but didn't see anyone. She looked confused and said, "That's strange. There was a sound just now."
She searched around for a while, making sure there was no one there.
Closed the door.
I heard the door close.
Mu Yuan, who was hiding on the stairs on the next floor, took a deep breath.
The heart, which had been beating violently due to panic, slowly returned to normal.
Just now, at the critical moment.
She rushed into the next stairwell.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chenyi followed closely behind.
There was no sound in the stairwell, and the sensor light went out automatically.
In the pitch-black darkness.
The sound of each other's breathing became the most conspicuous presence.
Gu Chenyi's heart was pounding wildly.
The air was filled with her fragrance, which was different from the rose scent before. It was a neutral cologne scent, very light and faint, obviously coming from the shower gel rather than the strong ocean-scented perfume like the one he was wearing.
"What are you doing here?" Mu Yuan asked softly.
It won't trigger the sensor light, and the surroundings will still be dark.
She couldn't see Gu Chenyi's expression and was completely confused as to why he also hid.
"Same as you."
Hide from people.
Mu Yuan was speechless after hearing this. It seemed that Gu Chenyi really was... not interested in Wang Ruier.
It fits in with what Zhou Yuanmei said.
Thinking of the phone call she had just hung up.
She quickly flipped up the screen, and the sensor light above her head lit up.
On the screen, the name displayed is: Husband.
Mu Yuan got a headache when he saw this name. He had changed it before to prevent Zhao Keqiong from finding out.
But I didn’t expect that Gu Chenyi would see it now.
"Husband?" Gu Chenyi was very disdainful.
She actually called Huo Min husband?
Mu Yuan quickly locked the screen, and it went black again.
She held the screen in front of her and was about to leave.
However, he walked too fast and his feet did not firmly touch the steps, and he slipped from the edge instead.
Her heart suddenly flew into a frenzy.
I thought I was going to fall down the stairs.
But unexpectedly, in the next moment, she was caught in the arms of the agile Gu Chenyi.
"Are you okay?"
Gu Chenyi hugged her tightly and was also frightened by her.
She instinctively rejected the strange embrace, so much so that she got goose bumps all over her body.
As soon as she stood firm, she pushed him away in a hurry.
Meeting Gu Chenyi's gaze.
Mu Yuan hurriedly said: "Thank you, let's not meet again in the future."
Gu Chenyi was stunned and immediately said unwillingly: "Why?!"
"Because I have nothing to say to you, and we are just strangers, there is no need to meet."
Gu Chenyi gritted his teeth: "Stranger? Is this how you treat your savior?"
Mu Yuan's almond eyes were cold: "Regarding saving my life, I mentioned giving you compensation, but you didn't want it."
The thought that she wanted to compensate me and cut off all ties with me made me feel uncomfortable.
Gu Chenyi's recent days of depression were ignited at this moment: "Is that your compensation? You are just getting rid of me."
There was no ripple in Mu Yuan's clear almond-shaped eyes: "Then what do you want?"
Gu Chenyi froze.
What do you want?
He didn't think about it.
I just want to have a good chat with her and start with her as a friend.
I want her to see the true face of the scumbag.
But she didn't want any contact with him at all.
I'm even less willing to be friends with him.
She is straightforward and pure, completely different from his friends who come to him because of his brother and because he is a family man.
Like a clear stream, it flows through his muddy life, washing out a touch of cleanliness.
He was in a complicated mood and just opened his mouth to speak.
Mu Yuan's phone rang again.
She lowered her eyes to look.
It’s still Huo Min.
