My face burned to a charcoal gray, my heartbeat racing out of control, and in a panic, I said, "I... I'm going out to buy a book." 0
 
His hand finally loosened. 0
 
I hurriedly stepped back, taking a few deep breaths to calm myself. When I looked up again, I saw him wearing an expression of great interest, as if my earlier words had intrigued him immensely, or perhaps my performance had satisfied his annoying pride. 0
 
"What book are you buying? Trying to study hard?" he asked nonchalantly, his eyes and voice out of sync, his face filled with disdain and sarcasm. 0
 
I was almost driven mad by this Good Fellow. The lie had already slipped out, and it was too late to take it back. At that moment, the most important thing was to leave quickly, so I nodded repeatedly and moved toward the Entrance. 0
 
"I'll go with you." 0
 
He seemed to particularly enjoy the effect of speaking from behind, catching me off guard yet successfully halting all my movements. 0
 
Perhaps I had woken up too early this morning and was confused, not realizing that the sun had risen in the west, or maybe I was still dreaming, making everything I experienced feel like my own imagination. 0
 
Even after both of us got into the car, I couldn't believe this was real. I secretly pinched my thigh; it hurt. 0
 
Xiao Minxing drove calmly, not saying a word or looking at me. 0
 
At that moment, I felt like air. 0
 
But the torrent of questions in my mind surged to my lips, and ultimately, I couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have to work today?" 0
 
 
"Weekend." 0
 
He actually answered, neither angry nor blaming me for meddling in his affairs. 0
 
I could only pinch my leg again, but he caught me with a glance and said lightly, "Stop pinching, or it will bruise. Others might think I'm abusing you." 0
 
Today I was wearing a light-colored short dress, and the spot where I was pinching was just exposed. His gaze was fixed on that area. 0
 
There was indeed some suspicion, but hadn't he been abusing me? 0
 
However, I didn't want to ruin this rare good time with my foul mouth. 0
 
Silence was the best way to get along. 0
 
Xiao Minxing had always been quiet, driving silently. 0
 
Not far from home, there was a large bookstore that occupied three floors. The first floor had various bestsellers and study materials for students; the second floor had technical books, and the third floor had many miscellaneous books. Most importantly, there were places to read. 0
 
I had come here with Mina before and was somewhat familiar with the layout. However, back then I had just become pregnant and fell asleep on the table after sitting with her for a while. 0
 
Now seeing that table where I once slept filled me with desolation; it truly felt like everything had changed. The table remained, but my child would never return. 0
 
The culprit behind all this was the man beside me. 0
 
 
When I looked at him from the side, he was also looking at me, his gaze calm in a way I had never seen before, lightly brushing over my cheek as he said, "I'm going to check over there." 0
 
As he spoke, he raised his hand to glance at his watch: "We'll meet here at five o'clock to go have dinner." 0
 
Of course, he wouldn't give me a chance to respond; by the time he finished speaking, he had already turned behind the bookshelf. 0
 
Whether I was in a good mood or a bad one, there was no possibility of expressing it in front of him. Everything about me was insignificant and unvalued in his eyes. 0
 
What does it matter if I hate him? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't affect him in the slightest. 0
 
What about loving him? 0
 
Forget it. After loving him for so long, so humbly and so lowly, in the end, wasn't it all for nothing? 0
