Chapter 61 What are you feeling guilty about?
Mu Yuan swallowed hard and retorted indignantly: "I can't even eat it!"
Huo Min had a faint, indulgent smile on his lips, his dark eyes flicking to the bowl in her hand: "Isn't this delicious?"
Mu Yuan followed his gaze and finished half a bowl of rice without realizing it.
Her ears became even hotter.
He put down the bowl directly: "I don't want to eat anymore."
Huo Min looked at her tightly gripped chopsticks and said quietly, "Just put down the bowl, not the chopsticks?"
Mu Yuan: ...
She jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom in her slippers.
Huo Min's brows jumped suddenly, and he quickly stood up and followed.
"Pah."
Just a second before she rushed into the bathroom.
Huo Min put his hand between her and the toilet door.
Mu Yuan slammed on the brakes to avoid hitting his arm.
She raised her eyes and looked at him who was blocking her way, puzzled: "What are you doing?"
Huo Min's cold face stiffened a little: "What are you going to do?"
Mu Yuan laughed: "What else can I do in the bathroom?"
Huo Minlian took the chopsticks in her hand and offered, "Want to wash the chopsticks? Give them to me, I'll wash them."
Mu Yuan really wanted to wash the chopsticks.
But the main point right now was his strange behavior of obviously not wanting to let himself go to the bathroom.
So she deliberately said, "No, I need to go to the bathroom."
Huo Min's expression paused, and then he said in a deep voice, "Then don't turn on the light."
Mu Yuan frowned: "It's completely dark inside without turning on the light and I can't see anything. Besides, why can't I turn on the light?"
Huo Min stared at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
Mu Yuan noticed that he was staring into her eyes.
My heart skipped a beat.
Qingci's voice became a little stronger: "Let me in."
Huo Min remained motionless.
He refused to give in, so Mu Yuan just stared at him and refused to back down.
The two of them were in a stalemate.
Huo Min's face was tense and he was about to say something.
Mu Yuan suddenly bent down quickly and slipped under his arm.
The speed caught him off guard.
Mu Yuan, who went into the bathroom and accidentally caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror, was frozen in place.
Beside her bright pupils were horrifyingly thick red bloodshot.
Mu Yuan has not yet recovered from the impact.
Everything went dark.
Huo Min reached out and covered her eyes.
Mu Yuan stood there in a daze.
Two seconds later, she hurriedly said, "Let me go."
Her fingertips just touched the back of his hand, trying to pull his hand away.
Then I heard his low, soothing voice coming from above my head: "Don't be afraid."
Mu Yuan paused.
"The doctor said the redness will fade away tomorrow, don't worry."
Only then did Mu Yuan understand why he didn't let her leave the hospital.
She felt like someone had stuffed a ball of cotton into her heart.
Stuffy and heavy.
"I know, take your hand away first..." she murmured after a few seconds.
Huo Min did not let go immediately. Instead, he led her out of the bathroom in that position.
He put his hand down only after he came out of the bathroom.
When Mu Yuan was not prepared, he pulled the chopsticks out of her hand.
"I'll wash it." He said, turned and went into the bathroom, closing the door behind him.
Mu Yuan stared at the bathroom door and complained in her heart: He locked the door just to wash the chopsticks... Is he so afraid that she would go in and look in the mirror again?
But in reality, the red blood ribbon still had a great impact on her.
She couldn't help but wonder what would happen if sulfuric acid was poured in.
Then she is blind now.
The more I think about her, the more scared I become.
Noticing that she was distracted, she didn't even care that he was using her chopsticks.
A trace of regret flashed across Huo Min's eyes.
Tsk, I should have unplugged the bathroom light bulb or taken down the mirror.
After he cleared the table, he said, "Now that we're full, let's talk."
Mu Yuan looked at him sideways.
I don't know what he wants to talk about.
The spirit she had just gathered was shattered by his next words.
"Where's my tie?"
She didn't quibble or evade like she did at the beginning.
Instead, she stared at him.
Huo Min raised his brows calmly.
I was wondering why she looked at me that way.
Mu Yuan said slowly: "I gave you the tie purely to thank you for helping me solve the problem with Chen Zhoufeng. Apart from that, I had no other thoughts."
Huo Min's eyes darkened: "For example?"
Mu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I heard that giving a tie as a gift can also convey a sense of ambiguity, but that's not what I meant."
"If you didn't, then why did you take the tie with you?"
Mu Yuan frowned and chose her words carefully: "I was just worried that you would misunderstand me."
"You've already said that this is another layer of meaning. Have you ever thought about it? Maybe I haven't thought of this layer of meaning either?"
Mu Yuan was speechless.
Seeing his eyes suddenly darken, she asked, "So what are you feeling guilty about?"
She immediately retorted, but her speed was so fast that it seemed deliberate: "I have no guilty conscience!"
"Since you have no guilty conscience and I haven't misunderstood anything, can you return my tie to me?"
Facing his distracted look.
Mu Yuan reacted again.
She fell into his trap again.
This guy is really something, why does he have so many tricks?
It's hard to guard against.
He looks cold, restrained and a decent person, but he is actually full of calculations.
Mu Yuan glared at him and pulled the quilt over her head.
If she can't afford to offend, she can afford to hide.
I saw her hiding under the quilt like a turtle retreating into its shell.
Huo Min couldn't help but laugh.
I'm afraid she'll bore herself to death.
Pulling the corner of the quilt, he said casually, "Yuanyuan, running away won't solve the problem."
She clenched it tightly.
He couldn't pull it out for a while.
The corners of Huo Min's lips curled up, and the muscles in his forearms tensed.
She was turned over with the quilt.
“!”
Just as her eyes were about to light up, they were covered again by his domineering lower body.
Huo Min lowered his eyes and looked at her with messy hair, pink lips slightly open due to rapid breathing, unable to escape, and a helpless look waiting to be picked up.
His Adam's apple rolled again, and his eyes were as dark as the night.
He raised the corners of his lips, his smile was scorching and ambiguous, and said in a hoarse voice: "Last time... you got into my bed like this too."
Mu Yuan suddenly recalled that day.
He knew that she was hiding, but he still deliberately asked his subordinates at the door to report their work in order to tease her, even though she was still taking care of him.
She was a little annoyed.
But when she met his black eyes, which were illuminated by his growing smile, she swallowed the scolding back into her stomach unconsciously.
The smile deepened, the eyes wavered, and the ambiguity instantly grew warmer and filled the air.
Like in the snow, the melted snow water washes the sharp icicles, blunting the sharp corners, and the core of the icicles can no longer be hidden, and is clearly transparent.
Her thoughts were in a turmoil, and she spoke without restraint: "Stay away from me, or don't blame me if you have a nightmare at night."
Her eyes are scary, even she is afraid of them.
He dared to come so close.
But he dimmed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "No, it was a good dream to dream about you."
Having your heart stop is a terrifying thing.
But Mu Yuan really felt it.
Her heart just skipped a beat.
Then came the uncontrollable retaliatory beating, as loud as gongs and drums that seemed to pierce the eardrums.
She was shrouded in the shadow he cast, and for a moment she felt as if she was being sucked into a deep and unfathomable vortex.
It's dangerous, but I can't help but want to move forward.
She lost her mind.
Before she could react, Huo Min's face suddenly leaned over, only a piece of paper away from her.
