Sweet Wife Runs Away

Ning Xi finally calmed down and was able to think about the problem calmly, soon her brows were wrinkled together again, feeling worried.

"Oh, I haven't apologized yet." She patted herself on the head, remembering what she was about to do just now but failed to do.

She looked at the clock and found that it had been half an hour since she was last in Brother Shen's room.

This discovery made Ning Xi feel a little annoyed.

"Brother Shen is already asleep, right?"

Ning Xi bit her lower lip.

As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot, nights are long and dreamy, Ning Xi wonders if Brother Shen will become even more angry tomorrow.

Recalling the panic and bewilderment in Brother Shen's room just now, Ning Xi felt that his performance today was terrible and he had to make amends quickly.

"No, I still have to go and see, maybe Brother Shen hasn't slept yet."

However, the courage she had accumulated to apologize before has almost dissipated in the incident just now.

Ning Xi clenched her small fists and cheered herself up: "Ning Xi, you are already an adult, don't be so excited casually! You can do it, come on, it's just an apology, this kind of thing can't trouble you. "

Ning Xi walked out of the room with a feeling of apprehension, and then her eyes lit up.

She found that bright lights were coming from Xu Mushen's half-open door. Obviously, Brother Shen was not asleep.

"Come on, you can do it, this time you must complete the goal, no matter what you encounter, you are not allowed to run."

Ning Xi stood at the door, encouraged herself once again, and then knocked lightly on the door.

This time, she got a quick response.

Xu Mu's voice was calm: "Come in."

Ning Xi first poked her head into the room to look at the situation in the room. Seeing that Xu Mushen was dressed normally and was sitting on a chair reading a book, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then walked in cautiously.

She rubbed her feet on the ground uneasily, and whispered: "Brother Shen, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you."

Xu Mushen flipped a page of the book lightly, but didn't speak.

Ning Xi lowered his head, not daring to look at Xu Mushen, for fear of seeing his cold expression, he continued to whisper: "I think I should be more independent, and can't always rely on others..."

"After my mother passed away, I found out that my mother Yang, whom I had always relied on, actually got involved in my parents' marriage 20 years ago. My former good friend Bai Ningxin actually hated me all the time. And my father, There are other daughters..."

"My mother is gone, my grandfather is sick, and everyone's love for me seems to be very short-lived and cannot last long."

"I... always have to face parting, and I have to get used to losing." Including...you!

As she spoke, Ning Xi's voice became lower and lower, and her heart was also clenched into a ball.

"I didn't know what was going on in my head at the time, so I chose to lie... I really knew I was wrong, Brother Shen, please don't be angry, I will never do this again."

What Ning Xi didn't dare to say was that she was very afraid of the day when Xu Mushen left her behind.

She always felt that she should prepare for this in advance, so as not to be at a loss when that day really came.

After saying all the words in his heart, Ning Xi anxiously waited for Xu Mushen's reaction.

She didn't dare to look at Xu Mushen's expression, but dared to lower her head, staring at Xu Mushen's slender fingers, trying to guess Xu Mushen's reaction through her fingers.

However, Xu Mushen never said a word, he was still turning the pages of the book slowly, as if he didn't hear what Ning Xi was saying, and was completely immersed in the ocean of the book.

The deathly silence spread, and the desolation in my heart rose little by little.

"Brother Shen, I really know I was wrong, so don't ignore me."

Panic spread in Ning Xi's heart, she was burning with anxiety, racking her brains to think of what else she could say.As long as he imagined that Xu Mushen would ignore her in the future, Ning Xi would feel cold all over his body, as if falling into an ice cave.

Finally, Xu Mu was deeply moved.

He closed the pages of the book with a snap and stood up.

When Ning Xi heard the movement, she thought it was Xu Mushen who didn't want to hear her apology, and was about to leave, so she panicked.

She quickly raised her head and looked at Xu Mushen eagerly, only to see Xu Mushen looking at her.

It seems... Brother Shen is not angry?

Ning Xi wasn't sure if his guess was right.

Xu Mu said coldly: "I know I was wrong? Will you lie to me next time?"

"Yeah, I know I'm wrong, I don't dare to lie to people anymore."

Ning Xi shook her head desperately, afraid that if she moved slowly, Xu Mu would deeply suspect that her apology was not sincere.

"Tell me the truth about your thoughts, tell me that you are on vacation, but you don't want to come back to live, will I eat you?" This is actually what Xu Mushen couldn't understand.

"Because..." I'm afraid you won't agree, and I'm afraid that not going back to live may make you unhappy.

Ning Xi didn't continue talking, she lowered her head more and more guiltily, listlessly: "I'm sorry, Brother Shen, I was wrong, and I don't know why I chose to use such a method at that time... I really regret it."

Xu Mu sighed deeply and rubbed Ning Xi's head.

"Actually, I was also wrong. I didn't know you were so insecure. I ignored this. I apologize to you. I'm sorry."

He only cared about her in life, but ignored the psychological changes of a little girl like Ning Xi after going through so many betrayals.

If he had been more careful, he would have discovered the uneasiness and fear in Ning Xi's heart earlier.

Then things like today wouldn't happen.

Xu Mu couldn't help feeling a little regretful, he shouldn't have pretended to be angry just now, and made the little girl feel so guilty and sad, he should have told her earlier, he had forgiven her long ago.

Ning Xi shook his head quickly, and looked at Xu Mushen seriously: "How could it be, brother Shen is so kind to me, brother Shen is not wrong! It's me who is wrong, I like to think wildly."

Staring blankly at Ning Xi's eyes, Xu Mushen said slowly, "Put down all your worries and fears."

"Hee Hee, you can always rely on me with confidence and boldness, treat this place as your own home, and regard me as your brother and your relatives. Although there is no blood relationship between us, it is better than blood relationship. I will always be with you by your side."

He spoke slowly, in a low voice, but with a soothing power.

Ning Xi smiled happily, and gradually calmed down.

Xu Mushen's words coincided with her previous thoughts.

She hugged Xu Mushen, buried her head on his chest, and said happily: "Mmm, brother Shen, you are my best brother, I have a brother now."

Xu Mushen also had a smile on his face, wrapped his arms around Ning Xi's body, held her in his arms, and gave her strength.

Neither of them spoke, and a warm breath flowed slowly in the room.

After a while, Xu Mu's deep smile disappeared, and his face sank: "Go to sleep now, and don't check what time it is."

"Yes, yes, I'm going now, Brother Shen, you should also go to bed earlier."

Ning Xi withdrew his hand, jumped out of Xu Mu's deep arms, stuck out his tongue, and ran away quickly.

Looking at Ning Xi's happy back, Xu Mu sighed deeply. He walked to the balcony, looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, and said softly to the person in another world: Xixi, if I treat Xixi better, you You shouldn't be angry, right?
The stars still twinkled, unchanged.

Xu Mu lowered his eyes deeply, already having made a decision in his heart.
