Chapter 279 - It’s Only Understandable That He Suspects Me
In the master bedroom.
Luo Chenxi sat there in a daze, thinking about the little dumpling.
At that moment, the sound of the doorknob turning could be heard.
Mu Yichen walked in with a cold temperament.
Luo Chenxi immediately threw away the pillow in her hand. She rushed over and grabbed Mu Yichen’s sleeve.
“Mu Yichen, you’re back! Have you gone to see Tang Tang? How’s she?”
Mu Yichen lowered his head and swept his gaze across her taut little face. His gaze darkened.
His voice was deep. “She’s asleep.”
Luo Chenxi immediately heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good, that’s good! She was crying non-stop just now, it’s really pitiful. My heart aches so much…”
She let go of Mu Yichen’s sleeve and was about to pull her hand back when she was grabbed by the man.
Luo Chenxi was shocked. When she looked up, she met Mu Yichen’s cold, dark eyes.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
Luo Chenxi’s heart skipped a beat.
‘I’ve been so focused on the little dumpling that I’ve overlooked the fact that Bai Xinxin is the cause of today’s incident!
‘When Mu Yichen returned, he went to the little dumpling’s room first. so Bai Xinxin must have taken the opportunity to smear my name.
‘Would Mu Yichen… Believe her?’
Luo Chenxi bit her lip and looked up at Young Master Mu.
From the man’s deep expression, it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
“The person who made Tang Tang Cry was Bai Xinxin, not me! Today, when I woke up, I was blocked by Bai Xinxin on the stairs. She… She deliberately provoked me and said that Tang Tang isn’t calling me Mommy because the Mu Family definitely isn’t willing to acknowledge me. Then, she kept egging me to make Tang Tang call me Mommy…”
“So, you went and coaxed Tang Tang?” Mu Yichen lifted his thin lips.
Luo Chenxi widened her eyes, “Of course not! Tang Tang… Obviously can’t withstand that kind of agitation, I’m not stupid! Besides, I already know that the Mu Family doesn’t want to acknowledge me, so would the situation be any different if Tang Tang called me Mommy? I’m not that naive, alright?”
“Then what happened this morning?”
Luo Chenxi was furious, “Bai Xinxin saw that I wasn’t fooled, so she went to provoke Tang Tang and forced her to call me “Mommy”! I couldn’t stop her in time! Later, Tang Tang started crying and Madam Mu saw it…”
Mu Yichen listened to her and didn’t say anything, as if he was thinking about something.
Luo Chenxi thought that he didn’t believe her, but an inexplicable fire suddenly rose in her heart!
“Mu Yichen, do you actually believe that b*tch, Bai Xinxin?! She has always disliked me and has always wanted to frame me, don’t you know that? I’m able to look past her deliberate insults against me, but this time, she shouldn’t have done such a thing to a child! Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I will never forgive her!” She roared at Mu Yichen.
As she spoke, not only did the anger within her not reduce, there was even a sourness welling up inside of her.
She could not control the wetness accumulating beneath her eyes.
‘Actually, if I were Mu Yichen, I would definitely not believe a woman who’s had a history of abusing her own daughter.
‘So, it’s only understandable that Young Master Mu suspects me.’
However, her heart throbbed, and she felt that she was on the verge of suffocation.
Luo Chenxi pulled her hand back, trying to break free from his restraint.
However, Mu Yichen did not take the opportunity to let go. Instead, he pulled her hard and flipped her over, pressing her shoulder against the wall.
He looked down at the little woman in front of him.
She had a strong and stubborn expression on her face, but her reddened eyes betrayed her.
“I once said that I can trust you, but I can only trust you once!”
