Upon hearing these words, Ji Huaishen froze, unable to recover for a long time.
He stared at her blankly, at her eyes, her nose; in his eyes, all he saw was her.
Mu Xiaocheng felt a little embarrassed by his gaze.
"Ji... um~"
Before she could finish speaking, his kiss landed, sealing her words with his.
It's unclear how much time passed before Ji Huaishen finally released the person in his arms.
He nibbled on her small earlobe and held her hand in his palm.
"go home."
His deep, mellow voice rang out in the night, carrying a hint of pleasure.
It was as if he had finally obtained the treasure he had longed for, or more like he knew that the treasure he had longed for would never leave him again.
Mu Xiaocheng and Ji Huaishen walked on the road to the hotel, but Li Shanshan did not follow.
In fact, Mu Xiaocheng knew that Li Shanshan was not a bad person at heart, nor was she a scheming bitch or a hypocrite.
She might be unhappy in her family life.
Or perhaps, Ji Huaishen is just too eye-catching and too likable.
This man possesses immense charm; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's stunningly beautiful.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaocheng turned her head and glanced at the handsome man walking beside her.
His thin, crimson lips were slightly pursed, and his dark eyes gazed into the distance. Then, as if sensing that she was looking at him, he suddenly parted his lips and said, "The work here is finished. I'll go back tomorrow."
Mu Xiaocheng pursed her lips, and because it was a bit cold at night, she subconsciously moved closer to him.
Ji Huaishen put one arm around her shoulder; his slender hand looked fair and beautiful.
Mu Xiaocheng swallowed hard. Even though they were already an "old married couple," she still couldn't help but blush.
"Can I go back to Langming Garden a little later tomorrow?"
When Ji Huaishen heard her say that, he raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "The person behind Yuan Xi is Zhou Ningshuang. If you want to investigate her, you can start with your aunt."
Mu Xiaocheng was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that Ji Huaishen knew what she was thinking.
Moreover, he already knew that Zhou Ningshuang was the person behind Yuan Xi?
What exactly is the conflict between Zhou Ningshuang and her aunt?
Why would Zhou Ningshuang repeatedly try to harm her and make her life miserable?
Or perhaps, that woman is a psychopath?
Does he/she have mental problems?
Mu Xiaocheng sighed and looked ahead, saying, "Sometimes I think Yuan Xi is quite pitiful. She's so young, yet she's been bewitched and led down a path of no return."
"However, there is always a reason why someone is pitiful. No matter what Zhou Ningshuang's purpose is, I will not let either of them go."
Mu Xiaocheng spoke these words in a very serious tone.
Although she can be soft-hearted at times, that's only towards people who are equally kind.
But for some malicious people, it's completely unnecessary.
The matter of Mu's father has not been fully resolved, and the mastermind behind it has not yet been found. As for potential threats like Yuan Xi, they should be eliminated as soon as possible.
Ji Huaishen tightened his grip on her hand, then suddenly stopped and said seriously, "I'll take care of these things."
For someone whose hands have been stained with blood since childhood, this is not a problem.
But she is pure.
Although she can be a bit short-tempered at times and has a habit of hitting people, he knows that she is kind at heart.
Let him do those dirty and dark things.
He wanted her to always live in the sunlight, because she was his light.
