Ning Xiaofei roared her accusation with almost all her strength, leaning against the balcony railing, gasping sharply at the rails while her whole body trembled and her chest heaved.
Her pair of eyes as red as a rabbit, but stiffly gritting her teeth and not crying, gasped for breath as she reached down and grabbed the heels and bag on the floor.
“Do you want me to jump, or you'll let me leave?”
"Where would you go?"
Mu Tianye asked gently.
“I….”
Ning Xiaofei’s clenched her teeth, her eyes brimming with tears.
Yeah, where would she go?
The Ning house doesn't welcome her, and now that he doesn't welcome her either, where could she go?
As she slammed her high heels to the ground, Ning Xiaofei yelled in a hoarse voice.
"Are you going to let me go?"
Mu Tianye took a deep breath and gave way to the door. Ning Xiaofei immediately grabbed her bag and trotted past, walked out the door of the guest room quickly, and stomped down the stairs.
“Mu…….”
Zhou Tao turned his face, just about to inquire, but the man had already moved ahead and quickly chased after her.
As he passed by the hall, he pulled off a coat and grabbed another pair of shoes from the shoe rack.
By the time Zhou Tao chased down, Mu Tianye had already caught up with Ning Xiaofei in quick steps and bent down to place the shoes at her feet.
“Put it on.”
She ignored him, bypassing him to leave. But with a stroke of the man’s hand, he stopped her.
"Don't think about leaving without them!"
With a glance at him, Ning Xiaofei reached out and stepped on the shoes, grabbed the coat and draped it over her body, stepping on the shoes in stride.
Mu Tianye didn’t speak either, just silently followed behind her.
At first, Ning Xiaofei walked quickly to ignore him, but the sound of the man’s footsteps was always behind her, and her anger finally simmered down.
“What are you following me for?”
“I said let you go, I never said anything about not following you.”
“You!”
Ning Xiaofei gritted her teeth, turned around and continued forward, with the large slippers on her feet trancing on the ground as she walked out of the neighborhood. Standing at the gates and waiting for a long time, there were no signs of a taxi. She peeked at Mu Tianye who was standing beside her, and was riled again. So, she turned around and continued forward.
“Where are you going, I’ll drive you.”
“No!”
"You won't be able to flag down a taxi at this hour."
“I have legs!”
After walking forward a few dozen meters, there was still no sight of an empty cab. Ning Xiaofei stopped on her tracks, turned to face Mu Tianye who was still following behind her, and flared up once more.
“Are you sick?”
"I'm sick!"
Otherwise, why else would he be so attached to such a dead girl.
Mu Tian Ye lifted his face and narrowed his eyes at the thin but stubborn figure that was almost barefooted and strutting forward on the road. He gritted his teeth and finally spoke.
“You want to know what I went to the apartment to do? Fine! Let me tell you!" Mu Tianye furrowed his eyebrows and bellowed out the truth that was suppressed in his heart, “That’s because Miss Liu called and said you hadn’t been home and your cell phone was unreachable. I was worried that you won't have a place to go, that something would happen to you, so I went to the apartment to wait for you…. I couldn't get through your phone and don't know if you have any friends to bunk down for the night. I didn't know where to look for you in case there's an accident, and I was afraid you won't be able to come home without your keys….I've been fidgeting and waiting for you for over three hours, are you satisfied?”Our Score
