My gaze snapped to her coldly.
I thought Mo Yichen was going to go to her, and I was prepared to pull him behind me so that I could confront her openly. But I didn't need to do that.
Yichen stepped behind me, his hands snaking around my waist as he pulled me in.
Zhu Ri froze, her arms still awkwardly raised. Her smile fell, replaced with a huge frown, and I coughed out a small laugh. He had rejected her.
The light in her eyes dimmed.
I came here expecting Yichen to still be sane. Maybe as soon as we walk into the office, she would quickly come for Roushi, but that was like the opposite of what I thought.
She was still foolish and clinging to a past that she herself had abandoned.
Rage filled my gaze as I turned back to her, almost spitting venom.
"You!" She shrieked, making Roushi shiver in my arms, her soft features twisting into an ugly image. "What did you do to him? Get out of my way! This is between me and my husband!"
Her husband, did she just say husband?
