The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 881: He’s Back (9)
She took a deep breath, stood up, and walked toward the sea. The warm seawater swept over, submerging her ankles, and the sea breeze lifted her long hair, seemingly taking away some of her pent-up emotions.
Mu Yiliang couldn’t help but take two more steps forward. Suddenly, an angry, shocked voice rang out: "Mu Yiliang!"
She was startled, and before she could turn around, a strong force suddenly came over, making the whole world spin. Her face slammed heavily against a man’s chest!
Tears of pain instantly flowed from her eyes!
Finally managing to recover, she looked up and found herself lying on a man’s chest. Below her, Yan Sijue seemed extremely furious. His chest was still heaving violently, his dark eyes filled with complex emotions that eventually turned into hatred!
He gripped her shoulders tightly, his voice hoarse: "What do you think you’re doing?"
"I..." Mu Yiliang felt somewhat puzzled. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"You think I would care?" he sneered coldly, "You think you can threaten me with suicide, and I’ll let you go? Dream on!"
Because of anger and fear, his body trembled slightly, and every muscle was tense!
Mu Yiliang was stunned for a moment, finally realizing what had happened.
So just now... did he think she was going to commit suicide?
How could that be!
"No, you misunderstood..." Although her body was bruised from his grip, she couldn’t help but laugh, "I wasn’t going to end my life, nor could I ever do such a thing."
He was momentarily stunned, still unwilling to believe, his smile sarcastic: "Misunderstood? Didn’t you just walk toward the sea?"
"I did take a few steps forward, but... I just felt the seawater washing over my ankles was comfortable." Mu Yiliang felt she had to clear up this misunderstanding no matter what, or else she feared further confinement, "Besides, why would you think I would commit suicide? I’m living just fine. Is there a reason for me to do that? Moreover, I have Xiaoze."
The man’s thin lips were tightly pressed as he looked at her deeply, unsure if he believed her.
"Really, although your distrust makes me very sad, it wouldn’t drive me to seek death." Mu Yiliang couldn’t help but soften her voice.
She suddenly understood that beneath his intense anger lay deep-seated fear.
Also, his belief that she had motives for suicide... wasn’t it a denial of himself?
His heart must also be extremely conflicted and in pain, right?
Thinking of this, Mu Yiliang felt heartbroken.
The man let out a cold laugh, then ruthlessly pushed her aside, stood up, and patted the sand off his body.
Mu Yiliang was caught off guard and pushed aside by him, feeling a bit helpless and slightly angry, so she simply lay flat on the sand, motionless.
The man initially wanted to walk away, but seeing her still lying there, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth loudly!
This woman!
Remembering how she had been standing there all alone just now, like a wandering soul, seemingly ready to vanish at any moment, that bone-deep fear rose again.
Luckily!
Whether she truly harbored thoughts of death just now or not, at least she was alive and well now...
The man finally walked up to her, reached out a hand, and said coldly: "Get up!"
Mu Yiliang was somewhat surprised, and after the surprise, a hint of mischief welled up in her heart: "You pick me up."
His eyebrows twitched!
"Otherwise, I’ll just lie here and wait for the tide to come in and let the seawater drown me," Mu Yiliang said with her eyes closed.
