C9

Qiao Shan left the office, causing Leng Ning's air to improve.

Mu Yu sat down in a depressed manner and threw the pen in his hand onto the black table.

Seeing this, Hua Xi walked over, raised her hand, and gently pressed her delicate fingers against Mu Yu's temple, massaging it.

That force, which was as comfortable as a feather, was like a cool breeze that had come and gone, driving away the irritation in his heart.

After a day's work, Mu Yu had no choice but to return to the house that was like a cage for him.

As soon as she opened the door and entered, Qiao Mengning welcomed her with a smile on her face, as if nothing had happened that night.

Truly, he didn't have the slightest bit of shame!

"You're back!"

Qiao Mengning took the briefcase from his hand with a smile. At a close distance, Mu Yu saw that she seemed to have put on some light makeup, making her look even more gorgeous than before.

However, when he thought of the coarse and dark skin beneath the thick foundation of the powder, and the faint pink color of her lips on the petals, he felt extremely greasy.

Being stared at by Mu Yu, Qiao Mengning felt shy. She lowered her head, not daring to raise it. The curve of her lips could not be suppressed no matter how hard she tried.

"Ha!"

Mu Yu let out an unknown groan. He took off his coat to avoid her hand and hung it on the hanger.

"Your skills are not good, so don't try to learn from others to put on makeup. Hurry up and unload it."

With that, he walked past Qiao Mengning coldly, not caring in the slightest about the fact that Qiao Mengning had fallen from the clouds into hell.

Seeing that Mu Yu was about to go upstairs, Qiao Mengning became serious and hurried to catch up with him.

"I made your favorite dish, you …"

Mu Yu was walking upstairs without any hesitation. He didn't even look back as he said, "I've eaten."

Hearing the door above, Qiao Mengning gritted her teeth and endured the tears in her eyes as she walked to the dining room. When she saw that the table was full of Mu Yu's favorite dishes, she couldn't help but shed tears.

In the past, Mu Yu came back every day to eat and always praised the food she cooked was the most delicious.

But, why was it like this now?!

She didn't know when her life had started, but it was a mess and she wasn't happy at all.

What about the marriage she used to think it was?

Her stomach was empty. She hadn't eaten dinner, but she had no appetite.

After sweeping the untouched dishes into the trash can, Qiao Mengning quickly cleaned up the kitchen.

In the bedroom, Mu Yu sat on the bed looking at the computer. He didn't say a word to Qiao Mengning at all. He just treated her like an invisible mass of air.

Qiao Mengning was folding the clothes she had put away. When she saw Mu Yu's cold expression, the courage to take the initiative to speak was shattered.

The two of them should have been husband and wife, but they respected each other like ice. They were extremely cold.

At that moment, the door opened and a small figure in pajamas came in carrying a children's book.

Qiao Mengning immediately put down what she was doing. Even the indifferent Mu Yu also put down the laptop and revealed a gentle smile.

Qiao Mengning carried Mu Li in her arms. The bed, holding his cold little hand painfully.

"Didn't you fall asleep? Your hands are cold. "

Mu Yu naturally softened his gaze when he saw the mother and son making a date. When he looked at Qiao Mengning, his gaze was not as cold as before.

Mu Li pouted and fell into Mu Yu's arms, unable to come out.

Mu Li finally raised his head from Mu Yu's embrace after the two of them teased him for a while. He stared at Mu Yu with misty eyes.

"I haven't seen dad for a few days."

As she spoke, she came out of Mu Yu's embrace and pushed him away with her small hands. His mouth was so crooked that it could have been used as a soy sauce bottle.

"Daddy is a bad guy. He comes back so late every day. Daddy doesn't like Mu Li anymore. Mu Li is so sad."

Qiao Mengning immediately went to coax him, "Mu Li be good, it's not that I don't like Mu Li, but it's because I love Mu Li so much that I have to work very hard every day."

As he spoke these comforting words, his heart felt even worse. He felt sorry for the child, even for himself.

When Mu Yu saw this scene, he also felt very upset. Suddenly, he regretted his previous actions.

Seeing Mu Li put his arms around his chest, "Mu Li be good, Daddy promises to do it. In the future, I will do my best to have time to accompany you every day!"

Mu Li was very easy to coax. His mouth was no longer perky, and his smile was soft. A mischievous hair was sticking out of his head, fluttering about.

Holding Mu Yu's big hands, she acted so soft and cute like a spoiled child, "Then Daddy is also like Mu Li to Mommy. Don't be angry with Mommy, Mommy works really hard every day."

Mu Yu agreed and hugged Mu Li with a smile. He also let go of one of his arms and hugged Qiao Mengning.

The family of three hugged each other. Under the dim yellow light, they looked extremely warm, almost causing Qiao Mengning to cry with joy.

Mu Li was coaxed to sleep. Mu Yu carried Mu Li back to his own small room while Qiao Mengning sat on the bed with a blissful smile on her face.

However, it was only half a minute before Mu Yu returned to his bedroom. His expression was even colder than when he came back, which made Qiao Mengning shiver uncontrollably.

Why? Wasn't it fine just now?

"Mu …" "Mu Yu?"

Mu Yu stopped cleaning up his laptop. He looked at Qiao Mengning with a cold smile and reached out a hand towards her.

Qiao Mengning instinctively felt afraid and wanted to dodge, but her body seemed to be no her own and she could not move.

Mu Yu grabbed her chin with a frightening force.

"I've really underestimated you. You've spent so much effort to hook yourself up." If you fail to seduce me, then use a child. Not only are you ugly on the outside, but your inner self is even worse off. A woman like you is not qualified to raise my child. "

Qiao Mengning's eyes suddenly widened. Even the pain in her chin had been reduced by the shock.

"Mu Yu, what are you talking about? Why would I use Mu Li to do such a thing?"

Mu Yu was too lazy to say more. He packed his stuff and was about to leave when Qiao Mengning immediately held his hand.

"Just wait a while. Say it clearly, if you misunderstand me, I'm fine with anything. I'll admit to it even if you had cold war with me, but Mu Li can't." Say, did someone say something in front of you? "

Mu Yu was holding something in his hand. He moved to the side and got away from Qiao Mengning's tugging. The advantage in height made him feel like he was looking down from above when he stood in front of her.

"What you think is what you see. It is precisely because your heart is ugly that you think others are as unbearable as you are."

The words cut into her heart like a knife, in a gesture even more merciless than the mocking expression on his face.

What was he talking about?

Why was he looking at her like that? Were the days they had lived together all fake?

Mu Yu left heartlessly, ignoring Qiao Mengning's injury.

Qiao Mengning sat on the bed in a daze, her eyes filled with panic as she looked at her rough hands and the surroundings.

It was morning, and the tears had dried.
