Before Xu Zhuohua even opened her eyes, she knew who was in front of her. She was all too familiar with Cheng Muyun's scent.
The body reacts before the brain does.
Xu Zhuohua slipped out from under Cheng Muyun's arm and ran away first, no matter which way she went.
Before he could run more than a few steps, a large hand grabbed his collar.
Xu Zhuohua tried to struggle, but a displeased voice came from behind her: "If you keep running, I don't mind sending you back to the Xu family."
Upon hearing this, he immediately gave up struggling.
Because Cheng Muyun absolutely keeps his word.
The man pulled Xu Zhuohua into his arms and led her to a safe place.
Xu Zhuohua suddenly remembered something, "Where is Xiao Wuxin?"
"They rushed up to protect Lin Shuwen."
"Will he be in danger?"
Cheng Muyun gritted his teeth, "No, someone will meet them."
Xu Zhuohua asked again, "Apricot blossoms! Where are the apricot blossoms?"
"Zhang Qi took him away."
After walking a few more steps, Xu Zhuohua stopped and looked at Cheng Muyun.
"Did you already know about me?"
Otherwise, how could one find oneself immediately when the gun goes off?
Cheng Muyun curled his lips into a smile, "Could you bear to miss an occasion like this today?"
If we're talking about who understands Xu Zhuohua best, Cheng Muyun could definitely be ranked number one now.
"So you want to lock me up again now?"
This is what Xu Zhuohua is most worried about. She had essentially run away from the arranged marriage, and the Xu family and Cheng Muyun must have been looking for her these past few days.
Now that she's been caught joining in the fun, her fate is sealed.
"Didn't you say that two people need to be in love to be together? I won't force you."
Xu Zhuohua's eyes lit up. "So what do you want to do?"
Cheng Muyun looked at Xu Zhuohua with his deep eyes, "I'll pursue you and wait for you to fall in love."
"..."
Would I give up my life to be with you? Don't be delusional, Cheng Muyun. I will never love you more than I love myself.
"Give up, I'll never like you."
Cheng Muyun put his arm around Xu Zhuohua's shoulder. "So, who do you like? Xiao Wuxin?"
Xiao Wuxin's wife doesn't even have the surname Xu, okay?
Moreover, how could I possibly be worthy of being a prominent figure in the future? Xu Zhuohua just wanted to be a lazy bum.
"I don't like it. I'm not good enough for Xiao Wuxin."
Cheng Muyun fell silent, a rare occurrence, and the two walked into a quiet alley.
Xu Zhuohua immediately escaped from his embrace, saying, "You should find someone like Miss Luo. She likes you, and you two would be a perfect match."
"Why is it Luo Yunqiao again?"
Xu Zhuohua stroked her chin and thought for a moment, "She's passionate and flamboyant, beautiful and intelligent, who wouldn't like her?"
"I don't like it." Cheng Muyun said, his face ashen.
"Hmm... feelings can be cultivated slowly. You two are the perfect match, a match made in heaven, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a union made in heaven..."
The more Xu Zhuohua talked, the darker Cheng Muyun's face became.
The man suddenly pushed Xu Zhuohua against the wall, held her shoulders, and lowered his head to kiss her chattering lips.
A very gentle kiss, long and lingering.
The man savored the kiss as if it were candy, his nimble tongue gliding lightly over Xu Zhuohua's teeth, hooking her tongue and deepening the kiss.
Xu Zhuohua bit Cheng Muyun's lip hard.
The man didn't pull away; the kiss became sweet and metallic, and he didn't stop.
Xu Zhuohua collapsed into Cheng Muyun's arms, breathing softly.
Cheng Muyun's voice came from above, "Since you say feelings can be cultivated, then let's cultivate them slowly. I will give you plenty of freedom, but don't even think about running too far away."
Doesn't that mean you have no choice but to agree?
Xu Zhuohua shoved Cheng Muyun away abruptly, saying angrily, "Fine, I'll marry you once you've atoneed for your murder and understand what Dr. Lin said today."
Cheng Muyun frowned slightly, a sad expression on his face, but Xu Zhuohua didn't see it.
"Miss!"
Xinghua rushed over and grabbed Xu Zhuohua to check if she was injured. "Miss, you scared me to death! I thought you had been arrested again."
Then Xinghua noticed Cheng Muyun's cold expression and was startled, "Oh no, Miss."
Cheng Muyun laughed in exasperation, "Am I that scary?"
Xinghua stood in front of Xu Zhuohua, "Young Marshal, our young lady didn't run away from the marriage on purpose. She... I... If you truly love the young lady, please respect her wishes and wait for her to agree... and then..."
"That's exactly what I was thinking."
Cheng Muyun looked at Xu Zhuohua and said, "I believe that one day, Miss Xu will agree to my request."
Xinghua was completely taken aback by Cheng Muyun's answer. She couldn't utter the rebuttal she had prepared and stood there dumbfounded.
Cheng Muyun turned and left, leaving the master and servant bewildered in the wind.
"Miss, did I hear that right?"
Xu Zhuohua: "I heard you right."
Xinghua jumped for joy, cupping her face in her hands. "Young Marshal is so manly! He doesn't even mind that Miss ran away from the wedding, and he said he'd wait for Miss's consent. That's wonderful!"
If Xu Zhuohua hadn't known Cheng Muyun's fate, she probably would have been tempted long ago. The scene of someone in a high position bowing down is always captivating.
In Xinghua's eyes, or rather, in the eyes of many others, Cheng Muyun has already achieved the pinnacle of his abilities.
but!
Xu Zhuohua cannot nod!
"Whatever, I don't like him."
Xinghua took Xu Zhuohua's arm, and the two of them walked out of the alley together.
"What kind of young lady does she like? The young master Xiao from earlier?"
