Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!

Tao Zhixiang’s voice was quite calm, but Chu Mucheng could already hear the sadness hidden beneath that tranquility.

"Where are you?" Chu Mucheng asked softly.

"I’m... outside!"

Indeed, she was outside now, after all, she had already left the house.

And that home she had lived in for over twenty years, now... was no longer her home.

Tao Zhixiang only felt like she had been abandoned, tears falling, yet when talking to Chu Mucheng, she could only feign calmness.

𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

However, her pretense could not deceive Chu Mucheng.

"Where outside? Tell me your exact location!"

Chu Mucheng’s voice was cold.

Tao Zhixiang took a deep breath.

"I just left my house, I’m already downstairs!"

Chu Mucheng snorted.

"It’s mealtime now, didn’t they ask you to stay for dinner?"

Tao Zhixiang: "..."

She found that Chu Mucheng was simply too wicked, always stabbing at others’ hearts.

"Chu Mucheng, would it kill you to say something nice?"

Tao Zhixiang’s tears fell even more fiercely.

Her mood was already very sad, yet this person still wanted to bully her?

On the other end of the call, Chu Mucheng sighed.

"Wait for me at the entrance of the neighborhood, I’ll come to get you!"

Tao Zhixiang was stunned, "You... are coming to get me?"

"Yes." Chu Mucheng’s voice lowered, "What, you’re unwilling to see me?"

"Of course not!"

Tao Zhixiang quickly refuted.

Since that night together, their relationship had undergone a subtle change.

In the days that followed, Chu Mucheng became busy again, only visiting that apartment once, and of course, it was late at night.

At that time, she was sound asleep, but heard the door open, then someone entering the bedroom, removing clothes, and lying beside her.

Who else could it be but him?

And she, instinctively snuggled into his arms, only feeling... very warm.

However, when she woke up the next morning, Chu Mucheng had already left, leaving her alone in bed.

And now, with Chu Mucheng saying he would come to get her, how could she not be happy?

Her words had just been so eager, even though her eyes still brimmed with tears, the heartache within her instantly eased a lot.

Hearing her eager refutation, Chu Mucheng on the other end of the phone seemed to smile.

"Alright, then wait for me, I’ll be there in about ten minutes!"

Tao Zhixiang was somewhat surprised.

"How do you know where my house is?"

Chu Mucheng gave a faint smile.

"How could I not know where my woman’s home is?"

Tao Zhixiang’s heart pounded.

Chu Mucheng actually said such words to her...

And that phrase, my woman...

Her nose suddenly became a little sour again.

*

In less than ten minutes, she saw Chu Mucheng’s car appear on the road at the entrance of the neighborhood, and Tao Zhixiang quickly walked over.

This time, Chu Mucheng was driving himself, without a driver.

Tao Zhixiang sat in the passenger seat.

Chu Mucheng reached out to fasten her seatbelt, but when he pulled the seatbelt, his large hand seemed to brush unintentionally across her chest.

"I can do it myself!"

Tao Zhixiang blushed a little, wanting to take the seatbelt from Chu Mucheng’s hand, but accidentally grasped Chu Mucheng’s hand, her heart shivered again, unsure whether to hold on or let go.

Chu Mucheng chuckled.

"What, in such a hurry?"
