Zhong Mingwei stared at the dark red wrinkled scar without blinking. The scar was really ugly. Compared with the fair skin next to it, it was even more eye-catching. Zhong Mingwei stared at the scar as if he was staring at a flawed jade. Suddenly, Zhong Mingwei asked, "Where is your pendant?"
Ah Chou's body trembled. He sat up straight in a hurry. His fingers were fast buttoning his clothes. Even so, Zhong Mingwei still saw a thin red mark on his neck. Zhong Mingwei's voice suddenly became twice as loud: "Where is your pendant? Who took it away?!"
"No...no," Ah Chou pinched his collar in panic, shaking his head. "No, no, that's not it. It was...I fell down just now and I don't know where it fell. I...I looked for it outside for a long time but couldn't find it. It was dark. I couldn't find it even if I tried to look for it. So I...I came back..."
Zhong Mingwei looked at Ah Chou in such a panic. His chest was heaving with anger. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is it? Tell me quickly! Don't make me angry!"
"There's really no one..." Achou was about to cry.
If she had known, she would not have pretended to be clever and changed into such a high-necked dress. She originally thought that she would not be discovered by Zhong Mingwei, but unexpectedly, it aroused Zhong Mingwei's suspicion. That's right, what kind of person is he? How could such a clever trick of hers be pleasing to him?
Zhong Mingwei was so angry that he turned his face away, not wanting to see her look so gloomy and cowardly. He was so angry that his heart and lungs were about to explode.
"Can you please stop being angry?" Ah Chou was very timid. She was afraid of Zhong Mingwei to begin with, and now that Zhong Mingwei was obviously angry, she became even more timid. She sat on the edge of the bed and spoke timidly to the back of Zhong Mingwei's head.
"Why should I be angry?" Zhong Mingwei was so angry that he almost laughed. He stared at the wall in front of him and choked roughly, and every word he said seemed to be full of anger. "Why should I be angry? It's not like I was robbed!"
But you are obviously angry...
Achou stared at the back of his head, but dared not say anything.
She, who had been bullied outside, had to try to coax Zhong Mingwei. Ah Chou was tongue-tied and timid, and didn't know what to say. She drew circles on the bed sheet back and forth. Finally, her fingers timidly touched Zhong Mingwei's fingers, gently touching the man's fingertips again and again, obviously trying to please him.
"I know I was wrong, I will definitely be careful next time," Ah Chou looked at the man's hand, the more she looked, the more aggrieved she felt. She didn't know why she was aggrieved, but she just felt aggrieved. After a while, she sniffed and whispered, "Don't be angry, okay?"
"I'm not angry," Zhong Mingwei said after a while, having regained his usual calmness and composure. "Even if I'm angry, I'm angry at myself for being useless."
"No... No, how can I blame you? It was all my own carelessness," Ah Chou said hurriedly, wiping his face carelessly and pretending to be relaxed, "It's just a pendant. If it's gone, it's gone. Fortunately, I'm fine. You see, I'm fine from head to toe. In fact, I've worn that pendant for many years. I've been tired of wearing it for a long time. If it's gone, it's gone. When I find one I like in the future, I'll buy another one. You..."
"Girl, I want to sleep." Suddenly, Zhong Mingwei interrupted Achou's words.
