Chapter 4: This man is damnably sweet (4)

"Do you really like her that much?" The two hadn't spoken a word for a long time, until Song Zhishu broke the awkward silence with a smile. This made Mu Chili unsure of the girl's thoughts for the first time.

"Hmm." He suddenly lowered his head with a hint of reluctance and responded softly.

The other person remained silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "So that means I'm unwanted?"

Mu Chili was taken aback for a moment, then frowned: "You have parents."

“But I haven’t seen them for three years.” Song Zhishu didn’t refute, but just said coolly.

Their parents did love her very much, but that doesn't mean they were there for her. For three whole years, they didn't see each other.

Mu Chili suddenly fell silent, silently drinking his wine and gazing at the moon. After a while, he finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Why...why are you targeting me like this? You've been playing pranks on me ever since I was five years old."

It was a rare moment of warmth between the two of them, and he naturally wanted to figure out why he had been subjected to so many pranks over the years.

Song Zhishu just smiled: "When I was little, I was only two years old when you came. I always thought you came to compete with me for my parents. Later, you also disliked me and didn't go to parent-teacher conferences for me. They were always out working hard." Her expression darkened: "They all said I didn't have a father and mother."

"...I don't hate you, I don't hate either of them, who do I hate?" She turned her head and raised an eyebrow at Mu Chili.

The other person suddenly didn't know what to say.

[Ding! Target's corruption level -5, current corruption level 95] Hearing this, the smile on her lips deepened.

Children can be taught.

Seeing her smile, Mu Chili's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly turned her head away.

“Now, my fiancé has been snatched away by that woman, and so have you.” Song Zhishu shrugged.

Mu Chili pursed her lips, hesitating to speak, but under Song Zhishu's questioning gaze, she finally said stiffly, "You... deserve better."

The woman in front of him froze, seemingly not expecting him to say such a thing. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief, but she suddenly smiled brightly: "Oh, it's an honor to receive such praise from Mr. Mu."

"...You're welcome." He blushed slightly and coughed a few times to ease his embarrassment.

He later learned that this feeling was called "shyness".

The two of them didn't get home until around midnight. They had been drinking and couldn't drive. Song Zhishu, who had a social organization membership card at home, obeyed the law and called a driver.

Mu Chili had to admit that only when she was with Song Zhishu did the Bai Xiaobai she longed for disappear from her mind. This feeling was novel, like losing a beloved toy but finding something more interesting in another toy than the original.

His expression became complicated as he secretly glanced at Song Zhishu, who was meditating with her eyes closed. Her face was flushed from the beer, making her already alluring features even more captivating. Her usually sparkling eyes were tightly shut, and she was still murmuring in her sleep.

The atmosphere in the car was both eerie and warm.

Bai Xiaobai… Thinking of this name, Mu Chili's smile slowly faded. He looked out the car window at the ever-burning lights, his usually cold face now tinged with bitterness.

The next morning, Song Zhishu was vomiting and had diarrhea, her head throbbing. She collapsed weakly beside the toilet, looking at Mu Chili, who was perfectly fine and wore an impeccable smile, with a hint of resentment, and gritted her teeth.

How come this guy is alright?
