C10 Chapter 10

"Tinghan, are you asleep?" Lian Muqing's voice was very soft and gentle. Xia Tinghan thought that he had drowned in this gentleness back then and could not help but fall in love with this man. In fact, when he thought about it, how did he meet Lian Muqing back then?

It seemed so long that he could not remember. Some things were unforgettable, but he forgot them quickly.

He seemed to only remember betrayal now. When he didn't hear Lian Muqing's voice, he still wanted to give it a try. After all, he had already come this far. Who would want to spend the rest of their lives in loneliness if they could be happy?

However, at this point, when he heard Lian Muqing's voice, he didn't want to feel wronged anymore. He thought of the sweet words that Lian Muqing had used to flirt with another man with such a gentle voice. He thought of the hurtful words that Lian Muqing had said with such a voice.

"Yes, I'm tired."

Lian Muqing leaned closer to Xia Tinghan and nodded his head again and again. Every time, he nodded on Xia Tinghan's back until the last nod landed on Xia Tinghan's shoulder.

"Tinghan."

"Yes."

"I love you."

"Sleep!"

Lian Muqing hummed and hugged Xia Tinghan to sleep. He didn't know what to feel, but the night didn't seem too cold anymore.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. Xia Tinghan had left early in the morning and returned late at night, and his attitude towards Lian Muqing was still indifferent. The only thing that didn't change was probably Lian Muqing's attitude. Even if Xia Tinghan didn't let him get close, even if they slept in the same bed, he still looked at him with love in his eyes.

Xia Tinghan didn't want to go home anymore. He didn't know what Lian Muqing meant. He couldn't tell the truth from the false. He had investigated Lian Muqing, and he was still in contact with that lover. What kind of relationship did the three of them have now?

What Xia Tinghan was most afraid of was that he would fall into another trap, and at that time, who would come to save him?

"You're back."

Xia Tinghan walked into the living room, and Lian Muqing followed behind him.

"Yes."

"You haven't been back for a few days. Are you busy with the company? Or do you have too much homework to do? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Lian Muqing's tone was very earnest, but it was a pity that Xia Tinghan didn't want to think too much about it. He was afraid that he would think too much about it and think that Lian Muqing's eagerness was the foundation for him to enter the company.

"Yes, I'm a little busy. I came back to pack my luggage and leave."

"Where are you going?"

"I don't think we're that close anymore!"

"But we are husband and wife. Even if you haven't forgiven me yet, I am still your husband. I have the right to know where you are. Besides, I only care about you."

Xia Tinghan found it funny. "Husband? If you still know all this, you should break off all ties with the people outside, not sneak around."

Lian Muqing's grip on Xia Tinghan's hand paused for a moment, then tightened his grip. His actions were very secretive, and logically speaking, he should not have been discovered by Xia Tinghan, but how did things get out of hand?

"Tinghan, listen to me. It's not what you think."

"Then what does it look like?"

"After all, I had feelings for him, and I didn't want to see him in a bad way. I gave him his allowance, nothing more, and I made it clear to him that we had nothing to do with each other, and that I gave him things through other people. I never saw him again, really."

"Hmm. You are right. Can you let me go now?"
