Chapter 81 My Intention Was Never to Force You
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes were gloomy as she looked at Huo Min, whose expression was even deeper and harder to read in the dim light.
"You went through all this trouble just to prove to me that you won't get close to her and have nothing to do with her anymore?"
Huo Min said frankly: "This is one of the purposes."
Mu Yuan frowned: "What else do you want?"
"Sleeping with you."
He said it so bluntly and openly.
It was she who felt uncomfortable.
Mu Yuan's eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly: "You, don't say such ambiguous words. Even if I am willing to sleep in the same room with you, it is purely because I don't want Mom to be suspicious. As for the rest, I don't have any thoughts at all, and I don't care about what happens between you and Tang Nana."
"We sleep together anyway."
Mu Yuan's earlobes flushed red as she gritted her teeth and corrected him, "We have no choice but to sleep in the same room."
Huo Min's handsome features were filled with indifference: "Define it however you like."
Mu Yuan: ...
She glanced at the big bed and said decisively: "I'll sleep on the floor."
Huo Min followed her gaze and said calmly, "Okay."
Mu Yuan hurried forward to pick up the pillow.
But Huo Min also picked it up.
She paused: "What are you doing?"
Huo Min was calm and composed: "Aren't you going to sleep on the floor?"
Mu Yuanxing's eyes were full of vigilance: "What I said is, I'm sleeping on the floor! Not with you!"
Huo Min's lips curved up, like the moonlight through the mist in the night sky, gentle yet vague and dark: "I said, from now on we will sleep together."
"I don't want to!"
"Because you're not used to it. After all, you've been married for five years and haven't slept together. You'll get used to it slowly."
No matter how much patience she had, she couldn't stand his unreasonable nagging. Mu Yuan coldly said to him, "Stop talking nonsense. This is not a matter of being used to it or not. If you insist on forcing me, then I will go tell Mom right now that we are getting a divorce."
She originally thought that Huo Min would restrain himself because of this.
Unexpectedly, his eyes darkened suddenly, and he said slowly: "Go, and then after the National Day is over, we can't go back."
Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "What do you mean?"
"She'll probably do a lot of things that you can't handle in order to save our precarious marriage. What's clear is that you can't go to the lab."
I wanted to threaten him, but I ended up threatening myself.
Mu Yuan was in a dilemma, her cold eyes tinged with resentment: "Not necessarily, Mom is also sensible."
Huo Min stared at her meaningfully: "I've known her longer than you."
Mu Yuan was successfully choked.
There was a tense atmosphere in the room.
After a while, she felt helpless, angry, and disappointed. "Is this how you pursue someone? By trickery? By coercion? Without regard for the other person's wishes."
Huo Min's brows knitted slightly, and his eyes became dim and unclear in an instant, no longer as relaxed as before.
He looked at Mu Yuan, his Adam's apple rolled heavily, and said in a deep voice: "Because I don't have the confidence."
The anger on Mu Yuan's face suddenly disappeared.
He lowered his eyes, twitching the corners of his lips in self-mockery, his voice low and hoarse: "These are just fake tricks I put on to impress you. In your heart, I have no weight at all. As soon as she came, you wanted to push me out without hesitation, because you didn't believe that she and I were over."
Mu Yuan didn't say anything.
Because of what he said, she believed in her heart that their old love would rekindle.
He lowered his head, his back slightly bent, his expression calm, but his whole body was filled with an unignorable sense of powerlessness.
After a long moment, he said in a hoarse voice, "I won't force you. I never meant to force you. The ground is cold, you sleep on the bed."
His eyes darkened, he grabbed the pillow and walked to the empty space beside the bed.
The temperature in the mountains is undoubtedly lower than in the city.
Especially at night, even if the window is only one-third open, it does not affect the gloomy night wind at all.
It makes people get goose bumps.
Just before Huo Min was about to fall to the ground.
Mu Yuan blurted out: "Wait."
Huo Min stopped and looked up at her.
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes flickered, and she quickly found an excuse: "I don't want to take care of you when you're sick again, so..."
She closed her eyes and hardened her heart: "You sleep on the bed too!"
Anyway, they sleep separately, so if he dares to mess around, she will take action.
Huo Min's eyes darkened, but he still evaded the question: "You don't have to force yourself. Don't worry, if I get sick I'll go to the hospital by myself and won't get you into trouble."
Mu Yuan's cheeks gradually became hot, and she used a hard voice to cover up her unnaturalness: "Stop talking nonsense! Come up quickly before I regret it!"
"But you..."
Before he could finish his words, Mu Yuan glared at him fiercely.
She immediately pursed her thin lips and curled them calmly: "Okay."
A two-meter bed is not small.
But when lying with him, Mu Yuan felt that the bed was too small.
Huo Min glanced at her lying almost close to the bed and said calmly, "If you get any closer, you'll fall off the bed."
Mu Yuan closed her eyes and said unhappily: "I just like sleeping like this."
Half a month ago, she would never have imagined that the relationship between her and Huo Min would undergo such a drastic change.
They would never have imagined that they would lie in the same bed together.
Mu Yuan closed her eyes tiredly.
The moonlight climbed up the windowsill, and the ceiling, dyed gray by the night, was like a curtain, showing the faint shadow of the moon shining under the night sky.
Light and shadow are scattered on her eyelashes, nose, and lips. Each one is unique when taken alone, not to mention how beautiful and unique they are when combined together.
Huo Min's lips curled up slightly, and warmth flowed in his heart.
She's still soft-hearted, isn't she?
So he doesn't have any chance at all.
He secretly rejoiced at the opportunity he had seized.
In the silence, his voice grew increasingly hoarse. "I haven't been alone with her today. After instructing Manager Wen to arrange the venue layout so that it wouldn't affect other passengers, the group happened to have some important matters to attend to, so I went to a video conference and spent the entire afternoon in the tea room."
Mu Yuan curled up her slender fingers under the quilt, pretending to be asleep and not replying.
He whispered tentatively, "You can ask Manager Wen."
Mu Yuan turned her head and glared at him with her bright eyes: "If you don't want to sleep, please get out of bed."
Their eyes met.
Huo Min's eyes revealed a deep meaning: "I'm worried that you misunderstood."
Mu Yuan gritted her teeth: "I said, I don't care."
"I'm glad you didn't misunderstand."
It's like playing the lute to a cow.
She couldn't help but said: "I forgot to tell you that I don't like scheming people."
Huo Min didn't argue, his tone full of indifference: "Being a scheming man is better than being a divorced man."
Good one: I know I am wrong, but I won’t change.
I wanted to mock him, but ended up getting angry at myself.
Mu Yuan turned around and faced away from him.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Under the moonlight, her black and soft hair poured onto the pillow like spring water.
Huo Min's eyes darkened, and he gently twisted the ends of her hair with his fingertips, as soft as her heart.
He propped his head on his arm and looked at her slender figure right in front of him.
My heart is filled to the brim with satisfaction.
What about A Yao and Gu Chenyi?
The person who will sleep beside her will only be him and only him.
His deep eyes were gradually filled with a strong possessiveness, blending into the darkness, deep and bottomless.
-
Mu Yuan got up in the morning.
There was no one by the bed.
Reach out and touch it.
The mattress was still warm, it looked like someone had just left not long ago.
At that time.
There was a sound of the bathroom door opening.
Mu Yuan was stunned and quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
I heard the steady footsteps getting lighter, getting closer to the bed, and then slowly stopping.
Mu Yuan's whole body was tense, and his hands hidden under the quilt clenched unconsciously.
What was he doing by the bedside? Going back to sleep? Or...
She hadn't finished thinking yet.
A whiff of cologne scent penetrated my nose.
Next second.
There is a coolness between the eyebrows.
All the thoughts in her mind were suddenly paused.
The bed sheet beneath her was crumpled into a ball in her palm.
