Gu Zi Hao's words continued to ring in her ears: "I did use her to get close to you. But it was a mutual use of your will. She knew that she was not the only woman around me, and that I would never fall in love with her in my life. All I can give her is the car, house and career she's always wanted. This is a game between us, and if she can't do it, then I can let her go at any time and never ask for it. "

He let go of her shoulder and let her slump on the back of the chair like a skeleton.

She didn't expect that the romantic love she had felt at first sight would hide such a cruel truth.

She hadn't thought that Fujiko would come back from America for her. His feelings for her were so deep.

No, it should be said that his feelings for Yang Tingxin were not one bit inferior to Shen Muxi's.

Yang Tenxin... Cheng Tian Painting still didn't understand what kind of magic she possessed and why she was able to attract these two outstanding men at the same time.

"I'm sincere to you." After a long while, she finally said this softly.

Gu Zihao just laughed self-deprecatingly. "Aside from you, every single woman around you claims to be sincere towards me. I don't doubt their feelings for me, but I definitely won't accept it."

"It's not as vain as you think." Cheng looked at him, trying to make him understand what he meant. "She grew up in a single-parent family, her mother made a living from gambling, her brother was still young, she had to pay for everything her mother and brother had to pay for, and she was always chased around by the casino owners. She might have approached you for money, but she definitely didn't want to enjoy herself. "

"And then?" He looked at her blandly.

Cheng Tian Painting bitterly took a breath, "Since it's no longer possible for us, then we should properly understand her and treat her well. Don't disappoint her and her kind intentions towards you."

"Do you know why I'm here today?"

"Why?"

"Tell her that the game is over."

"No." Cheng Tian Hua excitedly grabbed his sleeves, "Please don't be so cruel to her. Give each other some more time, perhaps you will find that she is still worth loving."

She couldn't imagine how sad and sad it would be if he broke up with her at this time.

Something was falling off his palm, making him feel cold. When he looked down, he realized that he had ripped off his sleeve buckle. She was startled and lowered her head. "I'm sorry."

She held only the cuff links in one hand and lifted his wrist with the other, intending to button his sleeve back.

His palm was white and slender, as beautiful as jade, but Cheng Tian Painting did not have the slightest intention of appreciating it. He carefully retracted the black gem's sleeve back into his sleeve.

She fastened the cuff links, and when she looked up, she saw that Guzhao was staring at her. The redness on his face had already faded, and his wine had awoken. His bloodshot eyes were no longer filled with anger.

She let go of his hand, but he lifted it up a little, his thumb caressing her lips gently, and as soon as his fingertips touched it, Cheng Tian Tu flinched back.

His hand froze in mid-air, and his expression turned to one of loss, mixed with guilt. "I'm sorry for what happened just now. I couldn't control myself."

In order to not give her any trouble, he had always controlled himself well. Only today, after drinking a few cups, he could not help but kiss her.

Kissing her was something that he had always wanted to do. Today, his wish had finally come true, but he did not feel happy at all, because this was only a wishful kiss, a kiss that she greatly rejected.

"I'll forgive you if you promise me a little more kindness." Cheng Tian Hua stared at him and said.

Gu Zi Hao laughed bitterly: "You really are her best friend, but you won't be able to help her."

"Let's give it a try."

"Fine, I promise you, get to know her well, and get to know her again."

"Thank you." Cheng Tian Painting stared at him and said gratefully, "Only if she is fine will I be able to feel more at ease."

He said nothing.

"I'm sorry." This time it was her turn to say this.

She pointed at his bleeding neck. "It hurts, right? Let me fix it for you."

"No need, it doesn't hurt." He refused.

It was not pain, but a burning pain. However, he was very grateful for the pain. It covered up the searing pain in his heart.

There was no medicine cabinet in the car, so Cheng Tian still took out a wet tissue from the cabinet to wipe off the blood stains on his collarbone, then used the hemostasis to briefly process the nail marks on the back of his neck.

"I'll go back first." "No," she said.

"Yes." He nodded and reluctantly got out of the car.

Cheng Tian drew a concerned look at his back and reminded him, "Don't drive after drinking. It's very dangerous. Let Xiao Yi drive."

Gu Zi Hao turned around and angrily yelled at her, "Scram!"

Cheng Tian Hua parked the car downstairs and stepped into the elevator.

Her figure was reflected in the mirror inside the elevator. She quietly gazed at her slightly dimmed reflection in the mirror, then raised her finger to caress her lips.

Just now, her red lips had been deeply kissed by Gu Zihao, and she couldn't remember his scent anymore, only the shock and anger from that moment.

She didn't dare to think about how Shen Muxi would react if he knew that she had just been kissed by Gu Zi Hao, right?

The elevator stopped at the floor she pressed with a "ding" sound. She walked out of the elevator and stood in front of the password device. However, she didn't immediately open the door and enter.

I wish that Shen Mushui hadn't come back yet, and would have left her alone until she fell asleep!

Unfortunately, when she pushed the door open and entered, Shen Moxi was already inside.

At this moment, Shen Moxi was lying on the sofa lazily watching TV while eating snacks. When he heard the door opening, he turned his head to look at her and said, "You're back."

"Yes." Cheng Tiantao gave a soft, tired answer and sat down next to him. He looked at the snacks in his hand, the chips she had bought a few days ago.

Shen Moxi never eats snacks, especially this kind of junk food.

"You haven't eaten?" she asked.

"I don't know how to cook."

"You can order takeout."

"Never did."

"You're really …" Cheng Tian Hua sat on the sofa and stood up. "I'll go get you a bowl of noodles."

"It's too late, stop tormenting yourself." Shen Muxi grabbed her wrist and pulled her back onto the sofa.

"How can we not eat?"

"I'm full." Shen Moxi pointed to the two empty bags on the table. Seeing that her face was devoid of emotion, she asked: "You didn't see Miss Shi? Or was the conversation unpleasant?

Cheng Tian Painting turned his head to look at him and casually replied, "I didn't see her."

"It's alright, we'll do it another day." Shen Muxi put his arm around her shoulders and lowered his head to kiss her, but Cheng Tian Hua hurriedly retreated from his arms as if he had been electrocuted and took a seat at the side.

Shen Moxi didn't expect her to have such a reaction. He was shocked by her reaction.

"What's wrong?" He looked at her quizzically.

Normally, when he wanted to kiss her, he had never seen her have such an intense reaction.

"I …" Cheng Tian Painting instinctively covered his mouth with his hand and put it down. He stood up and said uncomfortably, "I've come into contact with infectious patients today. I'll go take a bath first."

With that, she turned and walked quickly to the wardrobe, found a place to sleep, and hid in the bathroom.

In the bathroom, she turned on the faucet, cupped the warm water around her mouth, and scrubbed her lips until she could feel the breath of Guizheng no longer remaining.

It wasn't that she loathed Gu Zi Hao's scent, but that she couldn't kiss him and get close to him after that. If she let him know, he wouldn't be able to accept it either.

After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Cheng Tian painting took a deep breath before walking out of the bathroom.

Shen Mushui had already left the sofa and was standing in front of the terrace, holding a teacup in one hand and a document in the other.

Cheng Tian Hua stopped in his tracks and looked at the side of his face.

A soft fluorescent light fell on him, casting a dim silhouette between his eyebrows, mysterious and alluring from her point of view.

Cheng Tian Hua walked in front of him with light steps and lifted the teacup in his hand to take it to the table at the side.

"Yes." He asked casually, still looking intently at the new papers that Assistant Peng had sent him.

Cheng Tian Painting did not say a word, but silently threw himself into the other's embrace and hugged him tightly.

She had never been such a proactive person, especially in front of Shen Muxi who didn't love her. Yet, at this moment, she wanted to do this, wanted to hug and kiss him …

Was it because she felt guilty towards him? He hated meeting Gu Zihao so much that he kissed Gu Zihao instead.

Or was it because Gu Zi Hao's words just now had moved her too much? It made her want to cherish the people beside her bed like never before?

She didn't know, she only knew that her heart was in turmoil. She really needed an embrace to calm it down.
