Chapter 471 is wrong
In the past, Mu Xiaoyu would have believed Li Chenxu without hesitation.
But for some reason, she felt a surge of emotion in her chest, a complex mix of feelings swirling within her. Before she could even process it, she blurted out those words.
Upon hearing this, not only Li Chenxu, but even Mu Xiaoyu herself was stunned.
For the first time, a hint of disappointment appeared in Li Chenxu's deep eyes as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu.
Li Chenxu is not a great and selfless person; in fact, he admits to being selfish in many ways.
But he would never use these selfish tactics on Mu Xiaoyu.
He liked Mu Xiaoyu, loved her, and always wanted to give Mu Xiaoyu the happiest life, wanting to cherish and pamper her.
He did indeed misplan this time, and Mu Xiaoyu was injured in some ways. But he did all of this for Mu Xiaoyu.
He never expected Mu Xiaoyu to understand him, and he was prepared for Mu Xiaoyu to blame or hate him.
But to his utter surprise, Mu Xiaoyu was able to say such hurtful things.
Li Chenxu thought his heart was almost immune to all poisons, but after hearing those words, his heart still ached uncontrollably.
It wasn't exactly painful, but it felt like a thorn was constantly pricking my heart, making it impossible to ignore.
For a moment, the two people in the room fell silent.
No one spoke; the atmosphere was eerily quiet.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't look at Li Chenxu, but her hands, which were at her sides, were clenched into fists. It was unclear whether she was afraid, nervous, or experiencing some other emotion.
"You've had a long day, and I've covered most of the Bai family's affairs. Get some rest first, and we can talk about anything else later."
After an unknown amount of time, Li Chenxu suddenly spoke. After speaking, he stood up, covered Mu Xiaoyu with the blanket, and then walked out of the room.
Mu Xiaoyu remained motionless in the same position until she heard the door close, at which point her eyes involuntarily turned towards the doorway.
She felt a strange sense of panic; she realized she might have indeed said something wrong.
Although Li Chenxu often acted domineeringly, she knew very well that he was not the type to lie. If Li Chenxu had said those words just now, and she had been the one listening, she probably would have been furious by now.
However, Li Chenxu remained calm.
Mu Xiaoyu realized she was wrong, but then she thought about what Li Chenxu had done during this time, and she still gritted her teeth and refused to apologize.
She herself doesn't know why she's become so stubborn.
Could it be that something has actually changed without us even realizing it?
Mu Xiaoyu sat on the bed, staring blankly in the direction of the door, her eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
Li Chenxu didn't return to his room that night. Mu Xiaoyu sat on the bed and fell asleep again sometime later. However, she didn't sleep well that night, as images of her and Li Chenxu together kept flashing through her mind. Some were happy, and some were unhappy.
But no matter which one it is, it's a memory between her and Li Chenxu.
I didn't realize how precious these memories were before, but now that I think back on them, I realize how rare they are.
Life is long, but sometimes it feels very short.
No one can predict what will happen in the next second of their life.
Just like Li Chenxu and Mu Xiaoyu, they were probably very happy together back then, and they never imagined that one day they would end up like this.
When Mu Xiaoyu woke up the next day, she felt that her pillow was slightly damp. She glanced at herself in the mirror and saw that her eyes were obviously red and swollen. Judging from this, she had been crying the night before.
Mu Xiaoyu stared blankly at herself in the mirror. She hadn't slept well last night, and with the marks of crying, she looked really haggard.
She didn't like seeing herself looking so haggard, so she spent a long time tidying herself up, and even though she didn't plan to go out, she still put on a delicate makeup.
Now, at least on the surface, there was no trace of her disheveled state from last night.
Mu Xiaoyu originally thought that Li Chenxu was still in the villa, but when she opened the bedroom door and went downstairs, she did not find Li Chenxu.
Looking at the dining table, there was the same simple porridge and side dishes as yesterday, and a note was tucked under the vase. Mu Xiaoyu hesitated for a few seconds, then finally went over and took the note out from under the vase.
"I'm going to the office now. I might be quite busy these next couple of days. Call me if anything comes up."
The note contained Li Chenxu's calm tone, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
Leaving notes wasn't unheard of before. However, Li Chenxu knew that women were sensitive, and even when leaving notes in the past, he would add some interjections. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't believe that the person leaving the note was Li Chenxu.
The difference between the notes from the past and those from today is enormous.
Mu Xiaoyu stared at the note for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.
Sure enough, even though Li Chenxu didn't say anything, he was still angry inside.
The mother put down the note and then sat down at the dining table to eat the breakfast that Li Chenxu had prepared.
While I was eating, I don't know why, tears suddenly started flowing.
She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she felt incredibly sad, as if a heavy stone was pressing down on her heart, making it almost impossible for her to breathe. She hadn't intended to cry, and she never considered herself a fragile person, but the tears flowed uncontrollably.
If other people saw this, they would definitely laugh at her.
Mu Xiaoyu hastily wiped away her tears and was about to continue eating when her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was none other than Song Yin calling her.
Only then did Mu Xiaoyu suddenly remember what she had discussed with Song Yin yesterday.
She quickly composed herself and answered the phone.
"Xiaoyu, I've made some progress on the Bai family's matter. If nothing unexpected happens, the government's investigation will be completed by the day after tomorrow at the latest. Once the media releases the results, it will be difficult for you to do anything. So you need to hurry up and act."
