The sky was gradually getting dark. He had been sitting in the living room waiting for a long time, but the woman still hadn't come back. Chu Xi suppressed the extremely strong and complicated emotions that surged in his heart, and then asked, "Where is she?"

Mrs. Li was a little confused for a moment.

She? Who?

Madam?

In fact, it was not Mrs. Li's fault that she did not understand it for a while. Before this, Chu Xi almost never mentioned anything about Mu Ci whenever he went home.

This was even more true after the two separated.

Mu Ci had his own things to do, and the two of them lived their own lives, neither asking about the other, nor disturbing the other. Occasionally, Mu Ci suddenly became interested and came to harass Chu Xi, but seeing that the other party was cold and ruthless and had no reaction, he would go back to do his own thing.

So when Chu Xi asked about Mu Ci this time, Mrs. Li was still a little confused.

"Madam, it seems that Madam said today that she will not be back tonight."

So, Mr. Chu, why did you suddenly ask this? Sister Li added silently in her heart.

"What else?" Chu Xi's face turned even colder when he heard that.

"...No, that's it."

She really doesn't know the rest.

At this moment, Chu Xi's whole body was filled with a domineering aura, which was very shocking. Although it was not directed at her, Mrs. Li was still a little frightened.

Seeing Chu Xi still sulking there for some unknown reason, Mrs. Li considered for a moment and then suggested, "If you are worried, why don't you give your wife a call and ask?"

When Chu Xi heard the word "worry", he froze for a moment.

He wasn't, not at all worried about her.

But... calling...

Seeing that Chu Xi hadn't made any movement or even said a word, Mrs. Li was so frightened that she asked without thinking, "Sir, don't you know your wife's phone number?"

“…”

As soon as these words came out, the mobile phone in Chu Xi's hand was almost crushed.

Seeing Chu Xi like this, Mrs. Li understood something instantly. She thought about it, and finally dialed Mu Ci's phone number with her own mobile phone. After handing it to Chu Xi, she left the living room first.

Chu Xi did not refuse, but when the phone was handed to him, he paused for a moment before taking it.

After a few beeps, the call was connected.

"Hello? Who is that?"

It was a strange woman's voice, and Chu Xi frowned subconsciously.

Immediately after the strange woman finished speaking, deafening music, noisy shouts and laughter all came into Chu Xi's ears clearly.

When the woman on the other end of the phone heard no one say anything, she glanced at the unremarked phone number and was about to hang up when a man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Where's Mu Ci?"

It was a very cold voice, as if it was accumulating infinite anger.

The noise in the KTV was too loud, Ning Miaoran couldn't tell who it was for a moment, and then asked: "Who are you? If you want to find my abbot, tell me your name first, otherwise how would I know which spare tire you are?"

Except for Yuan Jing, all the backups that the original owner Mu Ci found knew that they were backups, but they still rushed forward without hesitation when it came to Mu Ci.

Ning Miaoran is Mu Ci's childhood best friend, and there are almost no secrets between the two of them. In addition, Ning Miaoran was a little drunk at the moment, so when she said this, she had no thoughts at all and asked the question without thinking.

When Chu Xi heard the words "which spare tire", his face darkened and he almost crushed the phone in his hand.

He held back his anger and gritted his teeth as he spoke word by word: "I'm her husband, let her answer the phone."

Ning Miaoran almost burst out laughing when she heard this.

"You said you are her husband, then you are her husband. Then I also said I am her husband. Hahahaha, it's so funny! We are having a great time late at night, and it's really rude to call and interrupt other people's fun. There will be a special entertainment program later. Brother, I wrote down your phone number and blocked you now. Goodbye to being a spare tire!"

In conclusion, Ning Miaoran simply blocked the mobile number and deleted it.

Afterwards, she happily went on stage to sing and flirt with the boy.

The person Chu Xi was looking for was currently sleeping soundly beside him.

Mu Ci was very angry today because of Yuan Jing and Bian Zihan. Then he received a message from his bestie Ning Miaoran asking him out for a drink, so he came here to change his mood.

Because he had no idea how much the original owner of the character in this world could drink, Mu Ci carefully took a sip to test the water. But after one gulp, he fell directly onto the table.

“…”

Before falling asleep, Mu Ci was still complaining secretly.

So why did Ning Miaoran invite her to have drinks when she couldn't drink at all?

But this is not Ning Miaoran's fault, because usually, when two people make a drinking appointment, it is actually Ning Miaoran who drinks, and the original owner Mu Ci flirts with her on the side. Who knew that this time Ning Miaoran wasn't paying attention, and Mu Ci took a sip of the wine and poured it out.

On the other hand, Chu Xi, who had almost become an air-conditioning machine at home, memorized Mu Ci's phone number in Mrs. Li's mobile phone, picked up his coat next to him, and drove out.

At this point, there is a KTV with special entertainment programs. Considering the spending level of Mu Ci and Ning Miaoran, this should be the largest KTV in Lin City, which is located in the city center.

Chu Xi ran straight to the destination. When he arrived at the KTV, he made a phone call. Not long after, a middle-aged man came out and asked Chu Xi respectfully, "Mr. Chu, are you here so late to discuss business? We have the best room reserved for you."

"I'm here to look for someone. Which room is Miss Mu in?"

The manager was a little confused for a moment. Although he knew the identity of the person in front of him and knew that she was the eldest daughter of the Mu family, he didn't know what the relationship between the two people was. Forget it, the boss didn't tell him so much, he just asked him to come and specially entertain this Mr. Chu.

So the manager took Chu Xi to the door of the room where Mu Ci was and left.

Chu Xi stood at the door, paused for a moment, and then pushed the door open.

As soon as he appeared at the door and stood there for a while, the originally noisy noise in the room gradually became quiet, and everyone turned their heads to look at the dignified and handsome man who suddenly appeared here.

This room is very large, and there are many handsome men and beautiful women in it, all of whom were people who had played with Ning Miaoran and the original owner Mu Ci before.

However, here, only Ning Miaoran knew the relationship between Mu Ci and Chu Xi.

However, the only two people who knew about it were one who was fast asleep and the other who was singing with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, a hooligan whistle came from somewhere, and then someone said, "Handsome guy, did you walk into the wrong room? But don't worry, sister has everything here, come and play with us."

There was a burst of laughter afterwards, and the atmosphere gradually returned to its previous state.

Chu Xi looked around and finally saw the person he was looking for in a corner, but Mu Ci was sleeping, and there was a young man sitting next to her, staring at her motionlessly with admiration, and even tried to reach out to hook the strands of hair on Mu Ci's face.

When Chu Xi saw this, he strode over, grabbed the man's collar, and pushed him to the other side with great force. The man was completely unprepared and fell to the ground with a thump.

"You are sick!"

The man kept yelling, but Chu Xi completely ignored her. She just came to Mu Ci, patted her face gently, and called her name coldly, as if trying to wake her up.

Seeing this, the others were a little afraid to step forward, and went to look for Ning Miaoran who was still immersed in her own singing.

"Sister Miaoran, someone is harassing Sister Muci over there, we don't dare go up there."

When Ning Miaoran heard this, she immediately became angry, threw the microphone aside, and strode towards Mu Ci, looking like she was ready to fight with him.

"Damn it! I wonder who dares to harass my Mu Ci!"

Ning Miaoran was in high spirits and was about to pull the man's clothes when Chu Xi suddenly turned around and looked at her coldly.

Ning Miaoran froze completely after seeing the man's face clearly.

"Chu...Chu Xi?!! Why are you here?!"

Then she belatedly remembered the phone call she had just received.

"So you were the one who called just now? Holy shit!"

Ning Miaoran was a little surprised. She had never approved of Mu Ci and Chu Xi being together from the beginning. She knew at first sight that Chu Xi was a cold-blooded person without feelings. Even if they got married, two people without feelings would never be happy. But at that time, Mu Ci plunged headfirst into it and no one could pull him back.

It was not until the two of them actually got married that what she had guessed before really happened.

Fortunately, Mu Ci has always been heartless, so she immediately accepted the new men introduced by Ning Miaoran.

Yuan Jing was introduced by Ning Miaoran, but Ning Miaoran wanted Mu Ci to be truly together with Yuan Jing. She thought it was too early for Mu Ci and Chu Xi to divorce.

Back to the topic, Ning Miaoran really didn't expect that Chu Xi, who had always been indifferent to Mu Ci, would show up here in person. It seemed that he came here specifically to take someone home.

However...

Ning Miaoran had no intention of letting him take the person away.

It still depends on Mu Ci's choice.

Ning Miaoran ignored Chu Xi, who had an inexplicably hostile look on his face, and sat down on the other side of Mu Ci. She pulled Mu Ci over and let her lean on her shoulder, then rubbed her face to wake her up.

"Ah Ci, wake up! Your icy husband is here!"

As she was considerate of the other people around, Ning Miaoran whispered softly into Mu Ci's ear.

Mu Ci was dazed and could hardly open his eyes.

Ning Miaoran called out again: "Ah Ci, Chu Xi is here! Do you want to beat him up or..."

Before she could finish her words, Mu Ci sat up suddenly, then looked around leisurely. After seeing Chu Xi next to him, he stretched out his arms and hung directly on Chu Xi's body.

Chu Xi had not expected this kind of development at all. When that hot little face came over, he froze.
