Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Mu Shaoze Regrets

Mu Shaoze bowed his head, the long side bangs covering his eyes, making it impossible to decipher the emotions in them.

"I want to say I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have distrusted her, causing her immense harm."

An Yan slightly furrowed his brows, "Do you like her?"

Mu Shaoze was silent for a long while before speaking softly, "I once pursued He Xiyue, thinking she was beautiful and ambitious, and wanted her to be my girlfriend, feeling it would give me great face.

I thought that was liking someone.

Until He Xiyue chose Chen Duo, I lost much of my interest in matters of the heart.

It’s not that I must have her.

To put it accurately, I was afraid, afraid of being manipulated, afraid of comparisons, afraid of being abandoned.

I felt that emotions were worthless in the face of interests.

Later, when I witnessed your on-again, off-again relationship with Old Dog Fu, that’s when I realized what love really is.

But I also fell into a misunderstanding, believing that only what’s intense and passionate could be called love, forgetting that a steady and continuous flow is the true nature of love.

Zhou Ziqiao silently followed me for five years, imperceptibly, I became used to her presence.

We climbed mountains and waded through rivers together, traveled to the ends of the earth, and drank together.

She was great at disguising herself, able to blend in with anyone.

I’m quite slow in this regard, while also quite resistant, so I never considered too much, until everything changed that night.

Not afraid of your ridicule, I really enjoyed kissing her, but at the same time, I didn’t want to admit to this person who had manipulated me.

So on one hand, I wanted to stay away from her, and on the other, I wanted to get closer to her, I was conflicted.

After last night, I completely realized, I’ve fallen for her.

When I woke up this morning and didn’t see her, I felt empty inside.

Hearing that she had left, it was as if I lost my soul.

Little Five, I regret how I treated her, I want to find her, not just to say I’m sorry, but because I don’t want to break off our engagement."

Mu Shaoze looked at An Yan, his eyes filled with red blood vessels, "Little Five, I need to know where she is."

An Yan patted his shoulder, "Fourth Brother, you need to make an effort, it’s been five years, and you still haven’t surpassed me."

Mu Shaoze: "..."

An Yan let out a light sigh, "Fourth Brother, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, I think you should give Ziqiao some space to cool off.

She is extremely repelled by you right now.

The harder you chase, the more she’ll want to escape from you.

Give her some time to relax.

And give yourself some time to really think about this relationship, whether it’s guilt you feel towards her or if you truly like her.

I think if it’s because of guilt that you’re with her, that’s not what she wants to see, and it will only harm her again.

Wait until you have considered it thoroughly, and when Ziqiao’s mood has improved, then you can go look for her."

Mu Shaoze: "..."

An Yan watched Mu Shaoze’s car completely disappear around the corner of the carved gates before turning around and entering the villa.

Life is just like that, when you don’t cherish the people around you, once you lose them, trying to find them again will exhaust a lot of courage and effort...

Meanwhile, on the airplane.

Song Nanli looked at Zhou Ziqiao, who wore an eye mask and was sleeping on his shoulder, and asked the flight attendant for a blanket.

He gently placed it on her body and couldn’t help but sigh.

He and Zhou Ziqiao had known each other since they were bare-bottomed toddlers, their families both being prominent clans.

In his eyes, Zhou Ziqiao might be a bit spoiled but at least she was honest and dared to love and hate.

Ever since she met Mu Shaoze, her personality changed, becoming cautious and deliberately ingratiating.

Mu Shaoze indeed is tall, rich, and handsome, but his temper is also very dog-like, how could she have fallen for him?

There are countless men in Country C, is there not a single one who can measure up to that blind fool, Mu Shaoze?

He truly felt it was a pity for Zhou Ziqiao, but what could he say at this time? He could only offer his unconditional companionship.

After all, they were besties through thick and thin.

Zhou Ziqiao muttered, "Nanli, can you stop sighing? The more you sigh, the unluckier we get."

She sat up straight and pulled her eye mask to the top of her head, glaring at him with her swollen eyes, "On this journey, I’ve had my fill of your sighs, I don’t even need lunch now."

Song Nanli passed her the juice he had ordered earlier, "Have a drink, your throat must be sore."

Zhou Ziqiao glared at him coldly, "Shut up!"

Song Nanli huffed, "You’re only tough with me! You just spoil him! Have you taken your medicine?"

Zhou Ziqiao bit her lower lip, she had been in such a rush to escape this morning that there was no time to buy medicine; she would have to wait until after the plane landed to go to a pharmacy.

Song Nanli noted her embarrassed expression and knew she hadn’t made the purchase, "You don’t protect yourself well, what are you going to do if you get pregnant?"

Zhou Ziqiao turned her face away, "It’s completely over between him and me. Even if I were pregnant, I wouldn’t keep it. Besides, that’s not going to happen."

Song Nanli sighed again.

Zhou Ziqiao hit his arm, "Stop sighing, it’s so annoying!"

Song Nanli, "...You’re so unruly at home! Hey hey hey, stop hitting..."

Once they got off the plane, the two hailed a cab straight to the pharmacy.

Just as Zhou Ziqiao was about to enter, Song Nanli stopped her, "I’ll go in, you just wait here."

Song Nanli went in and bought a box of medicine. The clerk gave him a look, "Take precautions next time; making a woman take this stuff has serious side effects."

Song Nanli chuckled awkwardly, paid, and walked out, cursing Mu Shaoze for being a spineless coward under his breath.

He had to serve as Zhou Ziqiao’s venting bag and also take the blame for Mu Shaoze; he really was an unlucky guy!

He turned into the neighboring convenience store and bought a bottle of water. He opened it, took out a pill, and handed it to her, "Eat it quickly, to avoid trouble."

Zhou Ziqiao took it, popped the pill into her mouth, and gulped down the water.

She drank the entire bottle of water, and tossed the empty bottle into a roadside trash can, as if discarding her five-year unrequited love.

"Sis is back in the game!" Zhou Ziqiao raised her chin at Song Nanli, "Let’s go, I’ll take you to find some cute puppies."

Song Nanli raised his phone in a hurry, signaling, "Wait a moment, I need to check in first."

He dashed off to the side to make a video call.

Zhou Ziqiao curled her lip, "What a wimp."

Soon after, Song Nanli came scampering back, "All checked in."

"Did your girlfriend agree?" Zhou Ziqiao raised an eyebrow.

Song Nanli put his arm around her shoulder, "Saul said he’s at ease as long as you’re around."

Zhou Ziqiao snorted, "If I were a guy, he’d probably feel threatened."

"Enough chatter! Let’s go, we’ll have a couple of drinks first, then hit the town." Song Nanli led her forward with big strides.

The next day, in the underground parking garage.

Fu Shiyan was about to send the two little ones to kindergarten and An Yan was off to Galaxy Design Studio—the four of them were about to part ways.

The two little ones knew how to take the temperature of the room and had eagerly boarded the car early on.

Fu Mu’an watched An Yan and Fu Shiyan talking about something at the car’s nose, clicking his tongue lightly, "Next, Daddy’s going to whisper something in Mommy’s ear and then Mommy is going to punch Daddy, looking all embarrassed."

Fu Jinyan propped his chin with one hand, "After that, Daddy will glance at us, realize we’re not watching them, and then quickly give Mommy a kiss. Here it comes."

Fu Mu’an and Fu Jinyan, the two kids, exchanged a knowing smile.

"Brother, do you think Daddy and Mommy will have a little sister for us?"

Fu Mu’an shrugged, "That’s hard to say. If we do get a sister, then we, three men, together with Daddy, will protect Mommy and our sister. If it’s a brother, then the four of us men will protect Mommy."

Fu Jinyan blinked his large eyes, "What if they have another set of twins or even triplets?"

Fu Mu’an rubbed his chin, "Anyway, our responsibilities are only getting bigger, and this generation of kids is not easy to raise."
