She sought her approval?

Bai Muchuans gaze landed on her.

Xiang Wan was startled for a moment and was troubled.

Could she immediately deny that?

She suddenly felt that she was being taken as Xie Wanwans s.h.i.+eld.

Im just joking. Xie Wanwan smiled. She hasnt agreed to my request. She said she wanted to seek your opinion I didnt want to disturb you two as well but Im really about to collapse please have pity on me.

It seemed that she really was serious and sincere in her request.

Bai Muchuan didnt express his opinion. Xiang Wan found it difficult to say anything harsh either.

Lets eat first! All of you havent eaten as well, right?

Yeah! Can we share your breakfast?

Please come sit at the dining table. Ive prepared quite a lot of food

Xiang Wan cooked porridge. She prepared her breakfast and lunch together, which was why there was enough to go around.

She was not bothered at all to let them join for breakfast.

Nevertheless, it was not the case for Bai Muchuan. His breakfast of love was being cruelly divided and he didnt look happy about it. He grunted as he walked to the dining table. My wife made them specially for me

Oh, come on! Xie Wanwan protested, Its just a meal.

Is this an ordinary meal? Bai Muchuan pulled a chair and sat down, still looking gloomy. The meal thats being prepared for me is being s.n.a.t.c.hed by others. Aye!

Xie Wanwan was speechless.

She pulled a chair to sit down. It was difficult to ease the tension.

Xiang Wan felt a little awkward. The two a.s.sistants were also at a loss.

Fortunately, although Bai Muchuan was unhappy, he didnt chase them out of the house.

After breakfast, he even wanted to clean up and wash the dishes by himself

He behaved like a hardworking good husband. Xiang Wan could detect that he did that deliberately to show his stance. In Xie Wanwans eyes, however, she found it unbelievable.

Little Bai, youve changed!

He changed so much that she almost couldnt recognize him.

Youve changed completely! I cant imagine youre the Little Bai I know

Bai Muchuans steps slowed by a second.

After that, he quickened his steps to the kitchen.

In fact, Xiang Wan disliked the thought of entertaining guests

But they were already inside the house. No matter what, she had to maintain a polite and courteous smile.

That could actually be tiring to do.

Bai Muchuan gazed at her for a moment in thought.

When he left for work, he quickly turned back and called Xie Wanwan out to have a talk.

She likes being in a quiet environment and doesnt want anyone to disturb her.

I understand, Xie Wanwan nodded. We will definitely not bother her unless there is a need.

Bai Muchuan: Im worried that you dont understand.

Xie Wanwan replied, What? Hur, what did I not understand?

Bai Muchuans eyes seemed cold and he glanced at the time. Dissatisfaction was written on his face but his tone was casual and calm.

Shes easygoing most of the time but thats only because she was not annoyed If she does, shes going to give whoever annoyed her a hard time.

Xie Wanwan tilted her head.

So what exactly are you getting at?

Bai Muchuan: Just take my words literally.

Oh? Xie Wanwan laughed. Arent you trying to say that your girlfriend is good while Im the bad one? That I want to stay at your house to ruin your relations.h.i.+p with her?

When she said the last sentence, it was pretty obvious that she felt she was being wronged.

Little Bai, am I really such an insensible person in your eyes?

Bai Muchuan looked emotionless. None would know what he was thinking.

I just dont want her to be unhappy!

Pffft!

Xie Wanwan laughed.

Okay, I get it. You didnt want her to be unhappy so you gave me a warning.

She was looking downwards and seemed a little crestfallen. In order to hide her embarra.s.sment, she lowered her head; her fingers running through her hair; her pale face made her look like a weak, delicate beauty. While she spoke, it seemed that she felt hurt.

I get it now. So Im really such a person in your eyes.

Bai Muchuan kept quiet.

Xie Wanwan suddenly lifted her head and took a step forward.

Our past friends.h.i.+p no longer counts, right?

Bai Muchuan narrowed his eyes slowly. That depends on you.

What do you mean?

As long as you dont create trouble, everything will be the same.

Create trouble? Me? What kind of trouble can I create?

Bai Muchuans face sank and didnt answer her right away.

Xiang Wan doesnt know you well enough but I do, explained Bai Muchuan slowly under Xie Wanwans demanding look. Even if the paparazzi are hot on your heels, youre not someone who needs to stay at anothers house. Its par for the course to have paparazzi following you around. You can handle them without much problem

Hah!

Xie Wanwan gasped.

Thank you for your explanation. I just got to know that you think of me as an indestructible presence.

Bai Muchuan stayed quiet.

If its only the paparazzi, of course I can handle them. The problem now is, someone wants my life. Did you hear it clearly? I feel that my life is being threatened

Bai Muchuans eyebrows were closely knitted together.

The indignance on Xie Wanwans face faded away slowly and her tone became calmer. Little Bai, Im really out of options. I will only stay here for a few days. This is my only request, nothing more!

Silence took over.

Bai Muchuan slowly slipped his hands into his pockets. I hope so.

After that, he turned away, about to leave.

Xie Wanwan suddenly moved to block him.

Wait.

Bai Muchuan halted his steps and looked at her grimly.

Xie Wanwan raised her chin. I wanted to say, Im not someone who likes to create trouble. Its always trouble that comes looking for me. Sometimes, its because I focus too much on myself I never expected that youd actually see me as such a low person. Bai Muchuan, I cant accept it.

When she said the last sentence, it was almost like she was gnas.h.i.+ng her teeth.

Bai Muchuan nodded his head. The corners of his lips suddenly quirked upwardsand he smiled.

Fine, you wont create trouble. Then please tell me, whats going on between you and Ye Lun?

Xie Wanwan was stunned.

Several seconds later, a half-smile appeared on her face.

Youre actually bothered by this?

Bai Muchuan frowned and glanced at Xie Wanwan before looking away. Im just curious why you chose him but not Tang Yuanchu.

Xie Wanwans smiling face went momentarily stiff.

However, that was only for an instant. Immediately, she regained her usual pa.s.sive and flippant att.i.tude towards life.

Since you asked, Ill tell you honestly that there are two reasons for doing so. Firstly, its to create topics and gossip so we can promote The Grey List. The Meng Entertainment Group sustained huge losses because of the ban of Before Doomsday. There are also other projects that encountered problems one after another. Now, Im putting all my hopes on The Grey List and Im willing to sacrifice that for it

Bai Muchuan only showed a faint smile but didnt say anything.

Xie Wanwan could tell that he didnt believe her. After she contemplated for a while, she revealed a smile.

The second point is also the most important point. When I first came into contact with Ye Lun, I really disliked him. This was because he has all the shortcomings that I despiseselfish, arrogant, impudent and cold-blooded yet he has an inferiority complex, self-pity, loneliness and miserable But soon, I realized that I have all these shortcomings as well. It was not that I dislike him, I actually dislike myself.
