Chapter 621: Chapter 621: Shen Miao

Ning Mu walked over and opened the door.

Standing at the door was a tall, well-wrapped figure.

Based on the height, it seemed to be a man.

He was taller than Ning Mu.

Jiangli raised an eyebrow involuntarily.

At that moment, Jiangli noticed Ning Mu’s initial surprise upon seeing the man, which quickly turned into unease.

"Shen Miao, how, how did you come here?"

Shen Miao?

Upon hearing Ning Mu’s address, Jiangli’s brows furrowed.

Shen Miao didn’t take off his coat but picked up the things in his hand—a big bunch of beers.

The other’s voice was somewhat hoarse, inviting Ning Mu to go to the rooftop for drinks and a good chat.

Ning Mu’s expression hesitated, as if pondering something, then relaxed after a moment as if he had made some decision, and then agreed, following Shen Miao to the rooftop.

In the dead of night, the majority of the residents in the building, mostly elderly, were already resting; there were hardly any people in the stairwell.

And in the old complex lacking surveillance, there were no cameras to capture them.

The two of them went up to the rooftop together.

Jiangli saw them drinking in silence at first, and then Shen Miao suddenly asked Ning Mu, "Ning Mu, I really can’t go on like this anymore, you know, I’ve waited so hard for this chance, I... I don’t want it this way either, but we should end it, go back to your hometown, can you?"

Perhaps having drunk a bit too much, and getting a little drunk, Ning Mu replied, "What if I say no? Shen Miao, what do you plan to do?"

Shen Miao became suddenly agitated, articulating his difficulties.

Then, with an air of pleading, he begged Ning Mu to let him go.

Upon hearing this, Ning Mu couldn’t help but laugh. He looked at Shen Miao, chuckled softly, and asked in a very light voice, "Let you go? Shen Miao, if I let you go, who will let me go? I’ve known you for eight years; it was you who pursued me first, and now you tell me to let you go?"

Jiangli frowned and saw Shen Miao and Ning Mu start to argue.

During the argument, besides a few words at the beginning, it was always Shen Miao speaking.

After listening for a while, Ning Mu, standing with his back to Shen Miao at the edge of the railing, said, "Shen Miao, you should go back."

He didn’t give any response.

Upon hearing this, Shen Miao paused in his drinking, then gulped down the last mouthful of beer.

The next second, he stood up shakily, seemingly intending to leave.

However, he suddenly turned and pushed Ning Mu.

With Ning Mu tumbling down from the rooftop, he stared with wide eyes in shock, stood there stunned for a while, then turned and ran.

Jiangli, witnessing all this, let go and looked towards Ning Mu.

Ning Mu gradually came back from the haze as well, and he stared blankly at Jiangli.

Jiangli narrowed his eyes slightly, "Shen Miao?"

Ning Mu shuddered violently.

"Shen Miao?"

Shang Junxiao, hearing this, grew even more confused, "What does this have to do with Shen Miao? Abbot, do you mean that I should continue to call Shen Miao?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Shiyan glanced at Shang Junxiao.

Shang Junxiao was taken aback, pursed his lips, and said no more.

Jiangli was staring intently into Ning Mu’s eyes, his voice cool, "You’ve known him for eight years, been in a relationship for so long, and when he became famous, he killed you - you can withstand that?"

Shang Junxiao and Xia Xin widened their eyes at the same time.

Their eyeballs nearly fell out!

What the fuck!

Ning Mu’s lover, was Shen Miao?

Shang Junxiao was completely dumbfounded.

All he knew was that Ning Mu and Shen Miao were college classmates, thinking they were just good brothers, but he hadn’t expected...

Shang Junxiao thought back carefully.

There had never been any other closer friends around Ning Mu, neither male nor female.

It wasn’t that Ning Mu was unlikable, but that he was very careful about personal space and didn’t like to get close to people.
