Chapter 304: Protecting the Country and You (36)

But he had always forgotten to ask, to ask the girl in front of him whether she was willing to endure this grievance.

The man sat in the driver's seat, the lights in the car were dim, and the cars outside were driving very fast, but the car was extremely quiet.

After Xi Chen finished speaking, he looked at Yu Mu in silence, his dark eyes were filled with ancient peace, but then Xi Chen knew that the calmness of the lake was always just an illusion, even as long as the wind blew gently, the lake surface could cause ripples, let alone a small stone that was like a meteorite in his heart.

He was waiting, waiting for the girl to speak in agony, just like the judgment of the god of death on a person before death.

With the expectation of a new life, and with the fear of the unknown.

Yu Mu looked at him and said nothing.

The man's thick eyelashes trembled, and he almost spoke in a hoarse voice, "Mu Mu, I beg you, can you speak?" His tone was extremely low, almost a humble begging.

Waiting is too painful. The silence is like death, which will only make people sink into the abyss.

Looking at the man's humble and sad expression, Yu Mu sighed in her heart.

She didn't understand why Xi Chen suddenly became so uneasy, nor did she understand what Xi Chen was thinking.

Xi Chen or another him, they were all people that Yu Mu could not see through.

Yu Mu pursed her lips lightly, and her always calm tone seemed to be softer. She stroked the man's sharp brow with her fingertips and said slowly: "Xi Chen..."

The man's eyelashes trembled.

"You are fine." She said.

The soft tone, calm and gentle, this is Yu Mu that Xi Chen has never seen before. Xi Chen's uneasiness in his heart has not been comforted at all, but has increased more confusion and panic.

He was afraid that the girl would abandon him in the next second.

Xi Chen didn't know why, but he seemed to be particularly afraid of the possibility that the girl would abandon him in the next second.

If Yu Mu abandons him one day, Xi Chen thinks that he will probably go crazy.

The man grabbed Yu Mu's hand with trembling fingertips, trembling, and begged in a low voice: "Stop talking, stop talking... Mu Mu, stop talking, I don't want to listen... Let's not continue this topic, okay?"

Yu Mu frowned and looked at him with his eyes down. Xi Chen's eyes were already scarlet, and the corners of his eyes, which were always affectionate and deep, had long been stained with a hint of red, and his eyes were stained with mist. Such a panic expression was something Yu Mu had never seen on Xi Chen during the time he knew him.

After all, it is hard to imagine that a tough guy with red eyes in front of you, crying pitifully and begging you not to leave is really too strange.

Yu Mu pursed her lips lightly, holding back a trace of uncontrollable emotions in her heart, and she rubbed the corners of Xi Chen's eyes with her fingertips, "Listen to me carefully, and I won't say anything after I finish."

"Mu Mu..." The man murmured in a wronged voice.

Yu Mu sighed, "Xi Chen, I don't know much about love, nor am I very good at it, but I only know one thing from beginning to end, the reason I came here is because of you. If, apart from some unnecessary things, I can choose someone to accompany me in this boring life, my choice will only be you."

"In my eyes, my obstacle will never be the job position between the two of us. I will only worry that I may be too boring and you will not want to be with me."

Yu Mu lowered her long eyelashes, and her light tea eyes flashed. She sighed, "Maybe at that time, I may not even be able to save it."

"My mouth is too stupid, and I don't know how to say some things. My heart is too wooden, and I may not understand what you are thinking."

"I am full of shortcomings. You are so good. If you don't want me, I may-"

Before the girl finished speaking, the man had already lowered his head and tremblingly kissed her lips, swallowing all her words after that.

He hugged Yu Mu tightly, wishing to crush her in his body at this moment, and never separate.

It was like biting and kissing like crazy, but all this could not calm the emotions in the hearts of the two at the moment.

The endless flow of cars outside the window seemed to stop and become much slower, as if they had all quieted down, and when the wind blew, they also became gentle.

Xi Chen darkened his eyes, lowered his head, and touched the corner of the girl's lips with heartache and tenderness.

Her skin was a little broken there, probably because Xi Chen was excited and didn't control the strength well.

"Mumu, we will never separate, okay?" He leaned his forehead against Yu Mu's shoulder, and the tip of his nose was surrounded by the fragrance of Yu Mu's neck. Nothing could make people feel more at ease than this moment.

Yu Mu nodded, and his tone was flat: "Yeah."

The man bent his lips when he leaned against the neck, and silently kissed the girl's neck.

——

On the way back, Xi Chen took Yu Mu to the supermarket to buy some vegetables and snacks. Yu Mu actually had dinner, but Xi Chen didn't eat, and he didn't want to eat outside, so he had to go home to cook.

On the way back after buying groceries, Yu Mu frowned and asked Xi Chen with disdain: "Aren't you from Kyoto?"

Xi Chen turned his head and looked ahead, nodding and answering: "Well, what's wrong?"

"Then you should have a house in Kyoto." Yu Mu looked at him strangely, "Why do you want to go to my house?"

Hearing this, Xi Chen turned his head and looked at Yu Mu, his dark eyes full of grievance, looking at Yu Mu, "Mu Mu just said that he would not separate from me, and now he dislikes me and starts to drive me away?"

Yu Mu: "..."

She silently looked away, looking like she had a headache but couldn't say anything.

Seeing Yu Mu turned his head helplessly, Xi Chen secretly smiled with the corners of his lips curled, and his eyebrows were very proud of the smile.

After returning home, Yu Mu lay on the sofa and rested lazily, while Xi Chen took off his coat and went to the kitchen to cook.

Xi Chen suddenly came out and said, "Mu Mu, come and help."

Yu Mu lazily opened one eye and glanced at Xi Chen who walked to the sofa. She saw the apron in Xi Chen's hand clearly, frowned, and then sat up.

Yu Mu looked up and down, "What are you doing?"

Xi Chen showed the apron in his hand to Yu Mu, "Apron, help me tie it."

"Okay."

Yu Mu slowly got up and took the apron from Xi Chen's hand.

She helped Xi Chen tie the rope from the back, which was fast and not troublesome.

After she tied it, she lay back on the sofa, turned on the TV, and said to Xi Chen: "It's done, you can go now."

Xi Chen touched the rope behind him to make sure it was done, then turned and left the living room to go to the kitchen.

Yu Mu watched him leave, then glanced back at Xi Chen's back.
