Chapter 829: Xiaxia, Are You At A Wild Man’s Home?
Qiao Mu’s resentment persisted for the entire night as she waited for Li Yan to return home minute by minute.
It was too boring to be alone, so she called Chi Xia to express her feelings and vent all her grievances.
Listening to Chi Xia’s soft words of comfort and the background music of the television, Qiao Mu asked in puzzlement, “Xiaxia, where are you? ”
There was no television in the dormitory. Even if the computer was turned on, it was not allowed to watch videos openly at this time, right?
” I’m outside, ” Chi Xia replied vaguely.
“Where is outside? At the hotel? Or a wild man’s house? Xiaxia, you’ve been so secretive lately. Don’t tell me you have a target? Let me guess, Su Chen?”
This was the only person Qiao Mu could think of.
However, these two people were still in a state of cold war previously. Why were they together again now?
On the other end of the phone, Chi Xia coughed lightly and glanced at the man who was watching TV on the sofa. She continued to reply vaguely, “”You’re thinking too much.”
“Can I take your answer as a tacit agreement? Are you guys back together?”
“What? Don’t make wild guesses. There’s no reconciliation. It has nothing to do with him in the first place.” Chi Xia said softly. Seeing that the man beside her didn’t respond, she continued to talk to Qiao Mu.
Su Chen’s eyes were glued to the television, but his ears were listening to Chi Xia’s words.
” It has nothing to do with him. ” This was obviously referring to him!
Although he was very concerned, he did not show it on his face.
“My throat is itchy. Go wash a pear for me,” he said.
Chi Xia was speechless.
These words clearly reached Qiao Mu’s ears.
Immediately after, Qiao Mu chuckled. ” I understand. You don’t have to explain. ”
Chi Xia was speechless. She felt that this man was doing it on purpose. However, the next second, he coughed dryly. His throat was indeed uncomfortable and it did not seem like he was doing it on purpose.
Qiao Mu said very considerately, ” Alright, go wash the pears. I won’t disturb you. Sigh, no one washed pears for me. ”
Chi Xia hung up the phone helplessly and went to the kitchen to wash a pear before sending it to Su Chen.
Su Chen took the pear and took a bite. He glanced at Chi Xia lazily. ” Why? Are you afraid that others will find out about our relationship? ” We didn’t sign a confidentiality agreement.”
Chi Xia was speechless. What was her relationship with him? His words were very ambiguous, alright?
Chi Xia turned around and walked towards the bedroom, saying, “”I’m going to sleep. Help yourself.”
Su Chen took another bite of the pear and looked at Chi Xia’s back. His cold eyes became warmer.
Even if this woman did not have him in her heart, it was not bad to be able to maintain this state.
After Qiao Mu hung up the phone, she heard the sound of a car engine outside the courtyard. She immediately put down her phone, turned off the lights in the room, and covered herself with the blanket, pretending to be asleep.
He was finally willing to come back!
Soon, she heard the door open. Slowly, footsteps came up the stairs to the corridor. Then, they approached and stopped at the bedroom door.
Qiao Mu thought about what she should say to him later. Actually, she was too impulsive and irrational. If this stalemate continued, it would not be good for anyone.
They were going to separate soon, and she couldn’t bear to continue the cold war with him.
The room door was pushed open, and the light from outside shone into the room. Qiao Mu had her back to the door as she quietly listened to the sound.
However, the man standing at the door did not come in. He just stood there motionless.
If he didn’t come in, why was he standing at the door? Waiting for her to get up and pounce on him?
