"Otherwise what? Should I thank your mother for cheating on me with another man?"

Zhou Mochen's complexion was no better than Xu Su's. His face was pale, and his eyes were filled with a mixture of love and pain: "It's okay, Xu Su. You never have to care about me. Anyway, I've already been hurt to the core by you. You know I will love you no matter what, whether you are still the innocent little girl I first met."

"You bastard! Zhou Mochen, you bastard!" Xu Su completely broke down and was about to hit him.

Only now did Xu Su realize that Xi Zirong's existence had never been forgotten...

Green hat?

Xu Su was filled with anger and bitterness.

So this is how he saw her, so when he discovered that Shen Chen liked her, his first reaction was that she had cheated on him.

It turns out that in his heart, she was a woman who could cheat on him at any time.

She had lied to him once, and from then on, she would never have even the slightest bit of trust in him again.

Xu Su's hand was only halfway raised when Zhou Mochen stopped it, his expression icy: "Do you know what kind of look you gave Xi Zirong? Do you know how close and natural you two were next to Shen Chen? How dare you tell me that there's nothing between you two?"

It felt like another powerful punch to the chest; Xu Su shook her head in a daze…

Does she have it? Does she really have it?

Her legs went weak and she was about to collapse to the ground when Zhou Mochen hooked his arm around her waist and steadied her. He sneered, "So eager to throw yourself into my arms already?"

Ignoring his attitude, Xu Su grabbed him like a piece of driftwood: "I admit that I once gave my heart to Xi Zirong. I accept whatever look you give me. I've been honest with you about all of this. I'm not afraid to let you know. But why can't I say I'm innocent about Shen Chen?"

"Believe it or not, I still have to tell you that my feelings for Shen Chen are nothing more than friendship!"

It's unpleasant to be wrongly accused, let alone to be misunderstood by someone you love as a promiscuous woman...

Xu Su straightened up, no longer leaning on him, and took a deep breath: "I know that in your eyes, everything today is too coincidental, but I really only realized today that he likes me. I never thought about it before."

"Oh?" Zhou Mochen's lips curled into a smile: "Tell me, you were completely unaware before, so how did you become certain today?"

"..."

Looking at the pistol that he hadn't yet put away, Xu Su smiled bitterly. Did she still dare to tell the truth?

“He was too good to me, abnormally so, so naturally I became suspicious. After paying attention to the details, I was certain.”

With her chin held, Zhou Mochen carefully observed her expression and slowly smiled: "Speaking of which, he is indeed quite good to you, Xu Su. How do you feel? If I hadn't caught him being so reluctant to part with you today, would you still want to continue this ambiguous relationship with him?"

Do you want to continue this ambiguous relationship with him...?

Xu Su lowered her eyelids and answered in a serious tone: "I originally planned to stay away from him starting tomorrow. There will be no ambiguity. I don't like him. I didn't like him before, and I won't like him in the future."

Zhou Mochen could tell she was angry at a glance.

How ridiculous! She actually has the nerve to get angry.

She's been seen with a man who's interested in her every day, and now that he's caught her, she still has the nerve to be angry?

Zhou Mochen gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger. "I'll take your words as true. Now get out of my way. They're practically undermining us. Do you expect me to ignore them?"

Xu Su shook her head and pointed at the gun in his hand, saying, "Murder is against the law."

If she let him out, Shen Chen, who was completely unprepared tonight, would probably really die. She didn't want to cause a death.

That's right! Shen Chen coveted his brother's girlfriend and used their friendship to get close to her and steal a kiss from her. It was indeed dishonest, even despicable. But Xu Su didn't want him to die at all. No matter how Shen Chen treated her, she truly considered him a good friend.

Besides, Zhou Mochen and Shen Chen have a deep brotherly bond. Right now, Zhou Mochen is angry and jealous, and a man driven by jealousy is completely irrational. If he really makes a move, he might regret it when he calms down. She doesn't want things to escalate to that point.

But in Zhou Mochen's eyes, this was her trying to protect Shen Chen. He sneered angrily, "Breaking the law? Even if I don't leave this door today, do you think I can let Shen Chen off so easily if he dares to have feelings for you?"

He sneered, "But don't worry, Xu Su, I will absolutely not let you be a widow."

"..." Xu Su stood motionless like a gatekeeper, ignoring his words.

As long as he doesn't go out with a gun tonight, she won't stop him from going wherever he wants tomorrow, and she doesn't care what he does to Shen Chen, since she'd rather not see him.

Zhou Mochen's eyes grew colder: "If you want to stand here, then stand here. But let me tell you, don't test my limits again."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

The intense sense of oppression vanished, and Xu Su collapsed to the ground, her legs weak. She braced herself against the floor, her head bowed, lost in thought.

Normally, if she were sitting on the cold floor in a short skirt, Zhou Mochen would have frowned and tenderly picked her up.

But now...

Xu Su reached out to cover the tears welling up in her eyes.

Why do I feel so bad...

"Miss Xu, the ground is cold, please get up."

Sister Liu, who had been hiding all night, came over and helped Xu Su up, saying, "Don't be angry with your husband. If there's any misunderstanding, the two of you can talk it out."

As a professional housekeeper, Sister Liu's professional ethics do not allow her to interfere in matters outside her job duties, let alone matters concerning the family's feelings.

This is the first time, but that's all I'll say.

Xu Su forced a smile at her: "Thank you."

Misunderstand?

It wasn't a misunderstanding at all; the root of the problem was that Zhou Mochen didn't believe her.

Challenging his bottom line?

Xu Su knew very well that Zhou Mochen's bottom line was that he absolutely would not allow her to have any ambiguous relationship with other men. Even the slightest hint of entanglement could throw him into a state of turmoil. He was a possessive madman with an obsessive and paranoid nature.

And this madman refused to believe her at all, and could easily suspect her of cheating!

She might have made a mistake; she had been too slow to realize Shen Chen's feelings earlier, and by getting too close to him during this time, she had given him the opportunity to steal a kiss.

But Zhou Mochen, based solely on his own guess, became convinced that she had betrayed him, refusing to listen to even half a word of her explanation. So, was he not wrong?

Xu Su touched the spot where the gun barrel had been pressed against her; the icy touch still seemed to linger.

Before today, if someone had told her that Zhou Mochen would point a gun at her, Xu Su would have thought that person had lost their mind.

Zhou Mochen actually pointed a gun at her!

Thinking of that scene, Xu Su's heart trembled. She thought she would never forget the feeling at that time for the rest of her life.

Fear, heartache, panic, and a subtle, suffocating feeling, a suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe...
