Quite awkward

Chapter 182 Missing a man?

Mu Chenan took two steps back, leaned against the wardrobe door, and stared quietly at the dejected woman opposite him.

Qi Yu raised her chin slightly and saw that he had a cold and handsome face and said nothing.

She couldn't stand the silence and oppression at first, so she asked softly, "Brother, why are you back? I thought you had already gone to America."

“I’ll be there on Saturday.”

His voice was low and his tone was flat and dull.

It turned out that his plan had not changed.

Qi Yu lowered her head, feeling increasingly lonely, and his voice rang in her ears again.

"Qiao Yijing asked me to go for a drink, and then Zhang Pei came over. He told me to wait for him here."

When Qiao Yijing heard that Muchenan was going to work in the United States, he rushed back to Linjiang and set up a party in a bar.

Before Zhang Pei came, he didn't know that Mu Chenan would appear here. He scratched his head and felt strange, and took the initiative to mention that he had sent Qi Yu to Greentown Peony Garden not long ago.

Hearing this, Mu Chenan frowned in confusion. He really didn't have the patience to think about it carefully, so he put down his wine glass and stood up, leaving only a sentence saying that there was an urgent matter that needed to be dealt with immediately. Then he hurriedly disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Are there usually women around when you drink?" Qi Yu heard that he had just been drinking in the bar and focused on this.

"certainly."

Qiao Yijing brought his girlfriend, and his girlfriend brought a few good friends along.

“They must all be beautiful, right?”

Mu Chenan paused slightly.

He had never looked at those women carefully, so how could he know whether they were beautiful or not.

The woman in front of him, on the other hand, looked unhappy, as if she had drunk a whole jar of vinegar and was very sour.

Qi Yu waited for a long time without receiving his reply. Knowing that it was inappropriate to ask such a question, he abruptly changed the subject and stammered to get down to business.

"Brother, can you please not go to America? I...I don't want you to leave."

Mu Chenan's deep eyes were stunned for a moment, and after only a few seconds, two words came out coldly from his lips.

“It’s too late.”

Qi Yu's heart suddenly tightened. She clutched her skirt tightly and didn't have the courage to look up at him.

Last time, she firmly rejected his proposal of marriage.

Now she is in this situation, and I think it is all her own fault.

Mu Chenan spoke again, his voice clear and pleasant. He chuckled and asked, "Qi Yu, are you reluctant to leave me?"

This was the first time he called her name tonight, but it was so casual.

Qi Yu hummed lightly and nodded bravely in acknowledgment.

He didn't seem surprised, but instead said something cold.

"You can come over the day after tomorrow and take me to the plane."

After he finished speaking, Qi Yu raised his eyes, with disbelief in his eyes, and then he pursed his lips and looked gloomy.

Maybe he no longer likes her, so he has been so cold and distant towards her today.

It seemed like he wanted to distance himself from her.

Did he really let her go?

The more she thought about it, the more sad she felt. Suddenly, she gained courage and raised her head stubbornly and said to him, "What if I agree to marry you? Will you still leave?"

“Yes, we still have to go.”

Mu Chenan's voice became cold again.

Hearing his answer, Qi Yu's back collapsed. She lowered her head and covered her face, silently holding back her tears and protecting her only pitiful self-esteem.

"Why are you crying? You won't have to see the annoying me anymore, and no one will stop you from going to find your brother." Mu Chenan hardened his heart and deliberately exposed her vulnerability and disguise.

The male voice coming from above her head was more like a bone-chilling icicle, piercing her body and reaching her heart.

"No, I don't hate you, brother... I'm sorry."

Mu Chenan walked slowly closer, sat beside her, tilted his head and asked in confusion: "What are you sorry for me?"

Qi Yu raised her tearful face and explained in a trembling voice, "I shouldn't have misunderstood you based on my own subjective judgment. I shouldn't have been prejudiced against you, and I shouldn't have let you down."

Mu Chenan laughed softly, with a mocking smile on his lips.

"I will only marry a woman who truly loves me. You can't do that. There's no need to reflect on yourself in front of me. I'll think you're acting."

He deliberately pissed her off.

He was also deliberately provoking her.

A slight sense of helplessness mixed with a hint of surprise came over me at the same time.

Ignoring his last sarcastic remark, Qi Yu took a deep breath, turned around, leaned forward, raised her hands and hooked them around Mu Chenan's neck.

She begged the man in a tender voice.

"Brother, can you give me another chance?"

“No.”

Mu Chenan was merciless and tried to pull her hand down.

But who knew that this time she used brute force, and the woman's soft body struggled to squeeze into his arms.

Every twist and turn tugged at his heart.

He was annoyed that Qi Yu remained reserved and didn't take the initiative to express her feelings.

Only when she expressed her love for him in person could he feel at ease.

Thinking about it carefully, she had never been in love, so naturally she didn't understand these things, and could only rely on him to guide her step by step.

"What are you doing, thinking about men?"

"I miss you."

Qi Yu had never said such bold and straightforward words before. Her ears were burning and her whole body was filled with shyness.

Mu Chenan suppressed the corners of his lips that were about to rise and pretended to be calm.

"What do you want from me? I have nothing to do with you."
