Cheng Xiaoai poured herself a glass of water with trembling hands.
"Ding dong."
Before she could drink the water, the doorbell rang.
It was so late. Who could be here?
Thinking of what Bo Muchen had said before hanging up the phone, Cheng Xiaoai put down the cup and opened the door hesitantly.
It was him.
Bo Muchen was standing outside the door.
However, he wasn't in a good state. He looked exhausted, and there were bruises on the corners of his mouth. A few buttons on his shirt had even fallen off.
Cheng Xiaoai was shocked. "What happened to you?"
She appeared in front of him just like that.
It was both expected and unexpected.
Bo Muchen didn't move. At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and countless thoughts urged him to do something. But in the end, he suppressed them.
"I'm here to look for Liang Xi." He didn't answer Cheng Xiaoai's question. Instead, he directly stated his purpose for coming.
Of course, she knew that he was here to look for Liang Xi. But hearing him say it so bluntly, Cheng Xiaoai was still a little disappointed.
She smiled awkwardly and said, "Come in first. Liang Xi is already asleep. Why don't we wait for her to wake up?"
Bo Muchen entered and looked at her bachelor apartment. It was very clean and warm, just like the first time he saw her.
Cheng Xiaoai poured him a glass of hot water and sat on the sofa. She played with her long hair by her ear and said, "Well … It's been a long time. How have you been these years?"
"Mm." Bo Muchen's voice was very low.
Cheng Xiaoai bit her lip, but in the end, she asked him, "You … are married to Liang Xi?"
Bo Muchen looked up at her and said, "Mm."
Cheng Xiaoai trembled. "So … I don't have a chance?"
Bo Muchen's eyes darkened and he didn't say anything.
His silence gave Cheng Xiaoai hope. There seemed to be tears in her eyes as she looked at Bo Muchen in a daze. "I miss you so much."
At this moment, Bo Muchen wanted to say, "Me too." However, he didn't say anything.
Their story was destined to end a long time ago. Regardless of whether he had gotten over it or not, he had already let it go when he decided to marry Liang Xi. When he saw Cheng Xiaoai again, he couldn't say that he was indifferent, but he didn't feel as excited as before.
Cheng Xiaoai stared at him, as if she wanted to see something from his eyes. Even if it was just a little bit of old affection, it would be fine.
But the scary thing was, she couldn't see it.
"Bo Muchen." Cheng Xiaoai's lips were dry. She said faintly, "I was wrong back then, but I had no choice. I had my reasons."
"It's all in the past," Bo Muchen said calmly.
However, Cheng Xiaoai insisted on her explanation. "It was your mother. She forced me. She forced me to leave you."
"I know," Bo Muchen still said calmly.
Cheng Xiaoai was stunned for a moment, and her next words became more bitter. "So … you can't forgive me?"
"I don't want to talk about this." Bo Muchen frowned. "I'm here to take my wife home today." After saying that, he stood up from the sofa.
Hearing his indifferent answer, Cheng Xiaoai suddenly couldn't accept it. She had waited for so many years and endured for so many years. It wasn't easy for her to have a little confidence and capital to follow in his footsteps and ignore the threat of Bo Muchen's mother. However, in exchange, Bo Muchen gave such an understatement.
