Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce
Chapter 896 The Honest Girl Waiting for the Prodigal Son to Return (9)
Staring at the monitor screen, Mu Zhou's eyes widened instantly.
She clutched the blanket to her chest and subconsciously looked at Gu Fengyan.
His expression remained calm.
When their eyes met, a hint of unreadable malice seemed to flash across his face.
Mu Zhou instinctively grabbed his arm, looking at him almost pleadingly:
Don't tell him.
Gu Fengyan's face instantly turned ashen, his entire profile enveloped in coldness.
Now that things have come to this, does she still want to keep it a secret?
Mu Zhou clung to him tightly, a tear rolling down her cheek.
I can't tell if it's sadness or tension and fear.
Gu Fengyan's heart clenched painfully.
He finally suppressed his fierce aura and slowly covered her hand with his.
"Okay, let's not tell him yet."

Downstairs, Gu Fengmian looked grim, feeling irritated but having nowhere to vent his anger.
Originally, the timing should have been just right, but then a major strike broke out in Norway, and the road to the airport was full of demonstrators, making it impossible for cars to pass.
The driver took a roundabout route to get through the checkpoints and finally arrived at the airport, where he hurriedly boarded the plane.
As a result, they missed midnight.
He didn't even get to hear Mu Zhou say happy birthday to him in person.
They didn't even send him a message.
She must be angry.
As soon as Gu Fengmian entered the room, he noticed something unusual about the restaurant.
Flowers, cake, and a messy dining table.
The tablecloth was pushed aside, mixing it with the food, plates, and candles.
Gu Fengmian instantly realized that this was a candlelight dinner prepared for him by Mu Zhou.
But he messed it up.
He couldn't come back, so Mu Zhou was angry.
she left.
Gu Fengmian sat dejectedly on the sofa.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a small piece of black lace fabric on the stairs.
His brow furrowed.
Before I could even get up, I heard footsteps on the stairs.
Gu Fengyan, wearing a bathrobe, came downstairs.
"You are at home?"
Gu Fengmian was somewhat surprised.
"I came back ahead of schedule."
As Gu Fengyan answered, he passed by the piece of black fabric, calmly bent down to pick it up, and finally crumpled it in his palm before putting it into his bathrobe pocket.
As he approached, Gu Fengmian noticed a suspicious red mark on his neck.
That piece of fabric was clearly...
And his satisfied and languid expression.
Although Gu Fengmian lacked experience, he was surrounded by a group of playboys who had seen a lot of things.
He understood something instantly.
A fleeting unease, almost too quick to grasp, flashed through my mind.
"You brought a woman back?"
Gu Fengyan lifted his eyelids and glanced at him.
"Ah."
Gu Fengmian pursed his lips.
It's strange that there's a woman by his side.
Subconsciously, he glanced upstairs.
Is that woman still in his room?
I wonder what kind of woman he likes, someone as cold and aloof as him who only focuses on academics?
Gu Fengmian quickly lost interest.
He hadn't considered the possibility that Mu Zhou might run into Gu Fengyan.
If they met, Gu Fengyan would definitely have told him.
I guess Mu Zhou would have already left by the time Gu Fengyan returned.
He rubbed his hair in frustration.
Forget it, I'll go apologize to Mu Zhou tomorrow.
He really tried his best to get back today, but an accident happened.
*
Gu Fengmian left early in the morning.
Then Mu Zhou got up with dark circles under his eyes.
Last night, although Gu Fengyan slept on the sofa in the bedroom instead of sharing a bed with him, she still couldn't sleep well.
The thought that Gu Fengmian was also in this villa was so stimulating that she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
After a quick wash and change, she tried to run away, but Gu Fengyan dragged her to the restaurant.
"Have breakfast first, then go."
Mu Zhou stubbornly insisted that he didn't have the habit of eating breakfast.
Gu Fengyan looked up at her and placed the fried egg in front of her:
"Skipping breakfast for a long time can easily lead to gallstones. Come to the hospital this weekend for a check-up."
Mu Zhou pursed his lips and obediently picked up his fork.
How could this person, after what happened last night, still sit and eat with her so nonchalantly, and even remind her to get a medical check-up?
*
Only after Mu Zhou's strong insistence did Gu Fengyan agree to stop at the intersection before the company.
Although his luxury car is understated, it is still quite eye-catching.
If she gets off this car, the news will spread throughout the department within a morning.
People gossip like this at work.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw a familiar sports car parked there.
Mu Zhou paused, intending to go around and enter the company directly, but unexpectedly Gu Fengmian also saw her.
"Mu Zhou."
He ran straight over and blocked Mu Zhou's path.
Seeing that people were already looking over, Mu Zhou had no choice but to pull him to another secluded spot.
"I have to go to work right away. I only have fifteen minutes. If you have something to say, say it quickly."
Her slightly cold expression made Gu Fengmian feel a tightness in his chest. He paused for a moment before explaining:
"I tried my best to get back yesterday, but the strike and protests in Norway delayed me a lot, which is why I was late. It was an accident."
His explanation failed to elicit the slightest change in Mu Zhou's expression.
Gu Fengmian had never been so humble before, but thinking that Mu Zhou might have waited for him for a long time last night, he had no choice but to continue apologizing:
"Okay, honey, it's my fault. How about this, you take a day off and I'll take you to Norway, okay? We can celebrate your birthday again, just the two of us this time."
He wanted to take Mu Zhou sea fishing and to see the aurora borealis; all the girls he knew loved these things.
In that romantic place, it was just the two of them.
Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter for no reason.
However, the smile on her face froze instantly when she met Mu Zhou's cold gaze.
Mu Zhou showed no interest in his proposal and solemnly proposed breaking up.
"let's break up."
These words, once uttered, struck Gu Fengmian like a thunderbolt, leaving him momentarily deaf to his surroundings.
"……What did you say?"
He asked it again instinctively.
“I said, let’s break up. Anyway, you don’t really care about this relationship.”
Gu Fengmian regained his senses and finally understood Mu Zhou's words.
separate?
He was speechless for a moment, then smiled:
"Mu Zhou, are you out of your mind? You're breaking up with me?"
Does she even remember that she was the one who pursued him?
Mu Zhou sighed, his voice tinged with weariness:
"Yes, I'm breaking up with you. I'm really tired."
"Because I stood you up yesterday? I already told you I rushed back, it was an accident that prevented me from making it before midnight..."
“It’s not just this one thing.” Mu Zhou looked at him expressionlessly. “We are not from the same world. You won’t give up your preferences for me, and I can’t tolerate you forever. I shouldn’t have forced it. Separating is the best thing for us.”
This coldness from Mu Zhou made Gu Fengmian feel unfamiliar and uneasy.
He wanted to say something, but his pride held him back, preventing him from asking for forgiveness again.
He silently gritted his teeth, and when Mu Zhou checked the time on his phone again, he couldn't help but speak up, feigning nonchalance:
"Okay, you'll regret it."
"I can't, don't worry. Now I can walk, right?"
Gu Fengmian suppressed the discomfort in his heart and gave a stubborn snort.
"Go ahead and leave, who's stopping you?"
Mu Zhou stopped looking at him and left in a hurry.
He was left standing there with his arms taut, looking rather forlorn.
