Mo Hanchen looked at her, waiting for an answer.

“Yes?”

His voice was raised at the end, low and sexy.

“Got it!” Meng Yue said.

“It’s late. Please go back, Mr. Mo!”

In the end, Mo Hanchen really left!

Meng Yue stared at the closed door for a long time, unable to collect her thoughts.

She had indirectly made a promise to Mo Hanchen…

Just as she was in a daze, her phone rang.

Looking at the unfamiliar number, Meng Yue subconsciously swallowed and cleared her throat.

“Hello!”

The man’s deep voice rang beside her ear. “Mo Hanchen!”

“I know!”

This sudden shyness made Meng Yue think that she might have gone crazy.

“Is anything the matter?” Meng Yue asked.

Mo Hanchen said in a low voice, “Don’t go out for the next two days!”

“Why?” Meng Yue asked.

Mo Hanchen teased, “Because it’s dark outside; there may be ghosts!”

Meng Yue subconsciously looked out of the window at the pitch-black darkness. At the mention of ‘ghost’, she suddenly felt that her house was spooky and eerie.

“I’m hanging up if there’s nothing else!”

This man was beyond childish!

He chuckled. “I’m being serious. If you are captured outside and sent to my bed, I might just enjoy you without hesitation!”

“Impossible!” Meng Yue exclaimed.

“Xiang Haoyu wouldn’t do that!

“Although we don’t get along well, and he’s often unreliable, I still believe in his character!”

Mo Hanchen’s tone suddenly turned frosty. “Meng Yue, you owe me!

“You need to be taught a lesson!”

After that, he hung up the phone without even saying goodbye!

Meng Yue had no words as she looked at the phone.

“This…

“There’s something wrong with him…”

At three in the morning, Meng Yue hazily received a call from a strange woman.

“Meng Yue, you b****! Did you ask Haoyu to ignore me?

“You shameless b****! Just because Haoyu doesn’t like you and doesn’t want you, you’re forcing him to not come and look for me, right?”

Meng Yuncheng dug her ears and cursed. “Crazy!”

She immediately hung up!

Within five seconds, her phone rang again.

“Meng Yue, I advise you to divorce Haoyu! He doesn’t love you, he loves me! I’ve been with him for three years, since your wedding night. And we’ve always had a good relationship. He even said that he would divorce you and marry me…

“Speak, did you say something to Haoyu? He’s not answering my calls or replying to my messages. I can’t find him. My world has collapsed…”

The woman’s hysterical cries made Meng Yue’s head feel as though it was going to explode!

Meng Yue wanted to scold her back, but she felt that there was no need to.

She had been hysterical before!

On their wedding night!

At that time, Xiang Haoyu had told her, as she wore her wedding dress, that she should have been the one to die!

She was alive, and had brought pain to everyone!

If she had died, perhaps everyone’s pain would be lessened!

They wouldn’t think of the Meng Wan they loved when they looked at her.

Meng Yue sucked in her breath as she thought about the past.

However, no one cared if she had wanted to be saved.

She would rather be the one to die than to live in such pain and suffering now!

Hearing the painful cries, Meng Yue thought of her past self.

Fine!

Another silly woman.

A woman who was even more foolish than her!

“Sigh, pitiful thing. I’ll send you the address. You can go and look for him!”

Then, she gave her the address of the apartment where Xiang Haoyu was currently living.

After that, she turned off her phone and covered herself with the blanket before going back to sleep!

She didn’t wake until the alarm clock rang the next day.

As soon as she turned on her phone, Xiang Haoyu called her!

“Meng Yue, is there something wrong with your head?”

Meng Yue scoffed, turned on the speakerphone, and entered the bathroom to wash up.

“There must be something wrong with my head for me to answer your calls!”

Then, Xiang Haoyu’s enraged voice could be heard from the other side of the phone. “I used to run to other women every day, but you called me daily, asking me to come home. Now I don’t run out anymore, don’t hang out with other women anymore, and want to live peacefully with you. But you’re good, pushing women to me. Are you f****** off your rocker, or have you been dropped on the head? Or is it that I’ve given in too much to you the past two days?”

Meng Yue felt indescribably carefree as she listened to the irascible voice.

“Xiang Haoyu, you can continue to play with women, you can continue not to come home, no one asked you change!”

“Meng Yue…” Xiang Haoyu suddenly said in an exhausted voice.

“I was serious when I said I wanted to start over!

“I know I went a little too far before, but I really want to live happily with you now. I’ve had enough fun with women outside. I want a stable home, where there will be someone waiting for me when I go home each day; someone who has already prepared dinner when I return. Then, have a child together and watch her grow up!”

Meng Yue suddenly felt a lump in her throat.

If it were in the past, she might have been moved to tears and even be grateful for his forgiveness!

Even if he had been a playboy for the past three years, and might have slept with more women than she was aware of!

However, the timing had been just a few days short. Things had changed with the passage of time, and she was no longer who she’d been earlier!

All this time, she had been dreaming about Mo Hanchen who had taken her first time!

He coaxed her to relax, hugged her, and praised her for her beauty…

Meng Yue returned to reality. “These things can be done by your Qing’er, your Lu’er, and any other woman!”

“But those women are not you, Meng Yue,” said Xiang Haoyu.”They’re not Meng Wan’s sisters, and they’ve never married me or registered our marriage!”

Hearing Meng Wan’s name, Meng Yue smiled bitterly.

At this moment, she heard Xiang Haoyu’s assistant knocking on the door and coming in to report work. His landline phone continued to ring.

It seemed that Mo Hanchen’s termination of the collaboration between the Moyun Group and the Xiang Group had dealt them a huge blow!

“Go and settle your work!”

For some reason, she felt bad for him!

Xiang Haoyu let out a sigh. “I wanted to go home tonight, but it seems like I can’t!”

Meng Yue said, “…Got it!”

Before he hung up, Xiang Haoyu added, “Call me if you need anything!”

Meng Yue didn’t answer and hung up.

After all, she had been in love with this man for three years. Even though he had not shown his love for her in the past three years, she felt so sad that her eyes turned red upon seeing him forced into such a state.

If she didn’t love him, she wouldn’t feel hurt!

Xiang Haoyu looked at the phone and pressed his sore temple.

Because he had not fallen asleep for the first half of the night, he could not figure out whether Mo Hanchen’s appearance at Royal View Court was intentional or coincidental, but he still cared!

He also had the illusion that his woman was being stared at every day!

The disconcerting feeling made him irritable and lose his usual patience and calm!

As he listened to the constant ringing of the landline, and his cell phone starting to ring, he angrily waved away the phones.

Finally, the world fell silent.

His father had given him three days, and today was the last day. However, the company’s situation had not improved. Instead, it had become worse!
