The Newlywed's Sweet Honey: Husband, Pamper Me to the Bone!-Chapter 882: He’s Back (10)

"Otherwise, I’ll just lie here and let the tide drown me when it comes in." Mu Yiliang said with her eyes closed.

The man stared at her intently! But since the woman had already closed her eyes, no matter how fiercely he glared, she simply couldn’t perceive it.

In the end, Yan Sijue had to bend down and pick her up from the ground, his actions rough, as if filled with immense resentment.

Mu Yiliang, however, felt a sense of satisfaction, wrapping her arms around his neck, unable to suppress a slight smile.

Though he was domineering and distrustful now, and didn’t trust her at all, he at least still cared about her.

If that’s the case... perhaps there’s still a way they can find a suitable way to get along.

"Si Jue, please don’t punish me..." Mu Yiliang said softly.

It would have been better if she hadn’t mentioned it, but as soon as she did, Yan Sijue was livid!

"You still have the nerve to make demands?" He sneered coldly, "Forget it, you won’t have the chance to step out of the manor ever again!"

Mu Yiliang gritted her teeth: "You’re going to lock me up again, aren’t you? You always think I don’t love you, but every single thing you do just wears down my feelings for you!"

His steps halted, his arms holding her stiffened extremely!

Mu Yiliang suddenly felt she had misspoken again, but after a long time, she heard the man’s icy voice resound above her: "Feelings? If there were none to begin with, what is there to wear down?"

If it all started at zero...

Mu Yiliang felt an intense bitterness in her heart, that cold and helpless feeling once again seized her heart.

Once again, he believed she had not a bit of affection for him! Her gestures of goodwill, her confessions, he all deemed as mere pretenses!

She bit her lip: "If you won’t let me interact with the outside world, at least don’t leave me there alone... can’t you spend more time with me?"

He lowered his head slightly, a hint of sarcasm in his dark eyes: "Do you really want me to keep you company?"

"Yes." Her voice was very calm, yet unwavering.

The man seemed somewhat surprised, pursing his lips without speaking, just striding towards the manor.

"...Before, when you left me alone in the manor, was it because... you thought I was unwilling to be with you?" Mu Yiliang suddenly murmured, "Or maybe, were you afraid you might accidentally hurt me?"

She recalled the scene of him in a fury, destroying all the porcelain and decorations in the living room that day.

Yes, it must be like this!

Mu Yiliang felt an extremely complicated emotion in her heart.

The man chuckled coldly: "I see your tendency to overthink will never change."

With that, he placed her back on the ground and turned to leave!

Mu Yiliang, however, was unwilling to let him go just like that, grabbing his hand and saying in a low voice: "I want you to spend more time with me, I’m not afraid even if you hit me."

The man’s silhouette appeared both aloof and lonely. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

In the end, he still shook off her hand and walked away briskly.

Mu Yiliang stared blankly at his back, suddenly realizing that she didn’t want this version of him to vanish.

Even if he was so childish, suspicious, overbearing, and even restricted her freedom, even if interacting with him always involved arguments and left wounds, she still couldn’t bear to lose him.

He used anger and indifference as a protective barrier, but she couldn’t ignore the heart beneath it that constantly doubted and denied itself.

Perhaps, after he returned, there would still be a hint of happiness in the deepest part of her heart...
