The handsome man in blue pajamas had a clean and indifferent temperament, and his slightly furrowed brows revealed a hint of disgust and displeasure.

After Su Yunxi sat down on the sofa, she completely lost the strength to move. She half-closed her eyes and looked at Mu Shiyan, "I had a few drinks with friends."

"I thought a rich lady like you wouldn't go out drinking," Mu Shiyan said in a somewhat sarcastic tone.

Su Yunxi tilted her head and said with a smile: "Mr. Mu, you don't understand me!"

To understand a person, one must spend years in close contact with him or her. Mu Shiyan really didn't understand her.

But Su Yunxi gave people the impression of a gentle and well-educated rich lady, not someone who would get drunk with others.

"I don't need to understand you," Mu Shiyan replied.

"Yeah, you don't like me, so why do you want to understand me," Su Yunxi said slowly.

Her voice was a little vague, and a little soft, unlike the usual mature and steady voice of a young girl.

Mu Shiyan didn't say anything. Su Yunxi wanted to take a shower, and when she stood up, she fell on the carpet.

Her knee hit the edge of the sofa, and the sudden severe pain brought tears to her eyes.

She sat on the ground for a long time without moving, as if she had fallen hard and couldn't get up.

"Su Yunxi, how are you?" Mu Shiyan asked, unconsciously moving closer to check on her condition.

The woman turned her head, and Mu Shiyan was shocked to see tears in her eyes. "Why are you crying? It's just a fall, is it worth crying for? You are not three years old!"

"I didn't cry," Su Yunxi denied, but her voice was choked with sobs. "I really didn't cry, it just hurt too much."

After all, she is a spoiled young lady with delicate skin, and it hurts a lot if she gets bumped.

In addition, the alcohol brought out the grievance in his heart, which spread through the injury on his knee, doubling the pain.

She said she didn't cry, but her eyes were filled with tears and she looked weak and pitiful.

"How much can it hurt if it's bitten? Why didn't I notice you were so pretentious before?" Mu Shiyan said with disdain.

But he had already bent down and lifted up her trouser leg to look at her knee. It was red, but there was no bleeding. It might turn blue later.

"You are no longer the daughter of the Su family. You must change your spoiled habits. A fall or a bump is not a big deal," Mu Shiyan taught her.

He was reminding her to forget her former identity as a spoiled young lady and learn to be strong.

"I'm not the daughter of the Su family, but I'm the wife of the eldest son of the Mu family. Isn't this identity more honorable than that of the daughter of the Su family?" Su Yunxi's eyes were clear and bright, without a trace of impurities.

"It's just a title without substance. Do you take it seriously?" Mu Shiyan reminded her coldly after a moment of shock.

Su Yunxi was quiet, looking dazed, as if she was drunk. She had forgotten what she had just said, and she didn't hear clearly what Mu Shiyan said.

"On the first day we met, you asked me to set three rules. Could it be that you are playing hard to get?" Mu Shiyan leaned back and looked at her without blinking.

Even though he knew she was drunk, he still asked her questions and made sarcastic remarks, perhaps because he thought that the truth would come out more easily when she was drunk.

When testing her on weekdays, she behaved flawlessly and there was no chance to see her true face.

"No, I don't like you," Su Yunxi replied to Mu Shiyan in a daze.

She said she didn't like him as a person, but she didn't explicitly say she didn't like him. This was the first time.

A man who has been admired since childhood will still feel unhappy when a woman tells him she doesn't like him in person, even if he doesn't like her either.

"If you don't like me, who do you like?" Mu Shiyan's voice was cold and inquisitive, "Song Qian?"

"Song Qian?" Su Yunxi shook her head and sighed softly, "He's not a good match."

He said she was drunk, but it seemed like she wasn't. When he asked, she answered with clear thoughts. But when he said she wasn't drunk, she was too unguarded and answered whatever he asked.

"Su Yunxi, why do you want to marry me?" Mu Shiyan asked.

"You..." Su Yunxi looked up at the cold and noble man, as if she was wondering who he was, but her thoughts were blocked and she couldn't remember.

She didn't respond for a long time. Mu Shiyan was about to ask more questions when Su Yunxi leaned to the side and fell asleep on the sofa.

Mu Shiyan, "..."

He was really drunk. After talking for so long, he finally couldn't hold on any longer. He had no idea of ​​his current condition and fell asleep right there.

Mu Shiyan stared at the half of her fair and clean face that was exposed. After a while, he pulled the quilt on the sofa and threw it on Su Yunxi.

No matter how rich and famous she is, she is just like this, a drunkard.

……

Su Yunxi was woken up by the cold in the morning. Her arm, which was holding the pillow, was completely numb, as if there was an electric current running through it. It took her a long time to recover. Later she realized that she had been sleeping on the ground.

She slowly recalled drinking with Ye Wanrou last night, but she couldn't remember what happened after returning home. As for why she ended up on the ground, she might have been so drunk that she rolled off the sofa.

Mu Shiyan was not at home. When Su Yunxi was taking a shower, she realized that Mu Shiyan had seen her ugly appearance sleeping on the floor. But on second thought, Mu Shiyan didn't care.

After packing up, she went downstairs to have breakfast. Her aunt told her that Mu Shiyan had already eaten, so Su Yunxi ate by herself. After finishing her meal, she went upstairs to find Mu Shiyan.

Mu Shiyan was holding a video conference in the study. After it ended, he raised an eyebrow and looked at Su Yunxi, "What's up?"

Su Yunxi walked in and looked at him across the desk. "Did anything happen after I came back last night?"

Mu Shiyan smiled, "What should happen?"

Su Yunxi looked at his expression and felt something was wrong. "I don't remember, so I'm asking..."

Mu Shiyan told her slowly and kindly, "You fell off the sofa, hit your knee, and cried."

Su Yunxi, "..."

While she was showering, she did notice the bruise on her knee and wondered when and where she had bumped into it.

Hearing Mu Shiyan say that she was crying, Su Yunxi said without thinking: "Impossible, how could I cry over such a small thing?"

Mu Shiyan said, "Maybe the collision was just the trigger. What really made you cry was the huge injustice you suffered."

Su Yunxi, "..."

She was sold to Mu Shi'an by Su Mingde, schemed against by Mu Shi'an, and ruthlessly suspected by Mu Shiyan. She felt very aggrieved.

But why did she cry in front of Mu Shiyan?

Mu Shiyan, "If I were in your shoes, I would also feel wronged if I had to marry someone I like but was forced to marry someone I don't like."

Su Yunxi's mind was buzzing. She didn't remember what she said to Mu Shiyan last night. "I, what did I tell you?"

Mu Shiyan sneered, "What else?"

Su Yunxi's expression was complicated. "Don't be angry. I drank too much last night and talked nonsense."

Mu Shiyan asked, "Which one is a lie? You don't have someone you like, or you don't like me?"

Su Yunxi didn't understand why he was so bothered by such words. "I don't like you, but I have someone I like. Doesn't that seem to conflict with me?"

Mu Shiyan reminded in a cold voice, "Miss Su, you have someone you like, and you might get so worked up with them that you do something to let me down. You promised me that you wouldn't betray me."

Su Yunxi, "..."

Mu Shiyan said, "So, even if you have someone you like, please be patient until our marriage is over, then you can do whatever you want."

His words were flawless, leaving Su Yunxi with no room for rebuttal, yet he was also extremely sarcastic, making her feel very uncomfortable.

It was as if Mu Shiyan had determined in his heart that she had no moral bottom line and would betray him at any time.

Mu Shian's trick was indeed very effective, causing more rift between the two of them.
