Chapter 2116: Can’t Let Go Of Her
“You eat! I’m not hungry,” Wandou said.
“Oh, I won’t stand on ceremony then!”
Mu Chenguang swept most of the food and soup on the table into his stomach. He was too full. When he put down the bowl and chopsticks, he let out a satisfied burp. “Oh my, it’s so delicious!”
Wandou was also done eating. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked, “How long has it been since you had a normal meal?”
“After you left,” Mu Chenguang answered honestly.
“Are you a fool? Can’t you go home and eat?” Wandou could not help but scold him. If she left, he would not even be able to eat well.
“If you leave, where will I go?”
Mu Chenguang asked.
Wandou was stunned by his words. She suddenly felt a surge of sadness in her heart. It was sore and painful.
She knew him well enough to know that he was not on good terms with his father. His deafness in his right ear was also caused by his father when he was a child.
That was why he had been living outside and rarely returned to the Mu residence. In his heart, he had no home.
She remembered that he had once said that having her was like having a family. Later on, she had decided to leave. Was that why he said those sad words?
Wandou was afraid that she would cry, so she quickly got up and cleaned the dishes. “Okay, I’m going to wash the dishes now. Go get busy!”
“Okay. Let the dishwasher wash it.”
“Got it.”
The dishwasher in the kitchen was specially prepared for her by Mu Chenguang. At that time, he was really very considerate towards her and could not bear to let her hand become rough from all the scrubbing.
To be honest, besides her father, Mu Chenguang was the best man to her.
She had pictured a happy future with him, but it was too late now.
After dinner, Mu Chenguang waited for the kitchen to be cleaned up before taking her to the neighborhood for a walk.
After the walk, they returned to the apartment together.
Mu Chenguang went to the piano room and continued to compose his new song. Wandou planned to go back to her room and take a shower.
While she was showering, she could hear intermittent music coming from the room next door. It was Mu Chenguang testing the music.
After taking a shower, Wandou changed into a set of conservative cotton pajamas and followed the sound to the piano door. Through the crack of the door, she could see Mu Chenguang sitting in front of the piano, playing and recording notes.
He couldn’t hear anything with his right ear, so every time he played the piano, he would subconsciously tilt his head to the side so that his left ear would be facing where the sound came from so that he could hear more clearly whether the notes he played were accurate.
As she stood there and looked at his back, she would always think of the past.
Back then, when he taught her how to play the piano, she could still remember him praising her for her talent in music.
Wandou had never come into contact with music before. Her family was not allowed to do so, so she had never developed in this aspect.
However, her father had been working at Peijing Music Academy, even though he was only a gatekeeper.
Mu Chenguang would usually be busy until late at night when he was composing music. But tonight, he would end it before 12 o’clock.
It was because he felt that his stomach was very uncomfortable, and it really affected his work. He could only put down his work to rest.
When he returned to the bedroom, he immediately saw the girl sleeping on the small bed outside the screen. She was lying on her back with her legs facing the sky. Her sleeping posture was extremely ugly. If she moved an inch more, she would definitely fall.
Mu Chenguang came to her side and squatted down. He quietly looked at her sleeping face. He had never seen a girl more indecent than Wandou.
She clearly had a lot of bad habits, but why couldn’t he let her go?
He had “claimed” her back, but could they return to the past?
