Chapter 463: Chapter 0465: You Don’t Understand Me

This caught Chu Ge somewhat by surprise, "Did she fall in love with you at first sight too?"

Zhao Wuji nodded and murmured affirmatively, then said, "Fate is such a mysterious thing. When it arrives, there’s no stopping it. The first time I received a love letter from a girl, my heart nearly leapt out of my chest. At the time, I didn’t know what came over me. My brain just twitched and I nodded in agreement on the spot.

She was a very thoughtful woman, taking care of all aspects of daily life in an orderly manner. Normally, she wouldn’t lose her temper at school, treating her classmates with harmony and goodwill.

But there was one thing that was quite baffling—that is, on every full moon night, she would disappear for a whole day. When she reappeared the next day, her eyes always carried a coldness, as if she didn’t know you, which was strange. Initially, I did ask her what was going on, but she only responded with silence. Gradually, I stopped asking her."

After hearing this, Chu Ge couldn’t help but furrow his brows. Disappear on every full moon night?

Chu Ge now felt as if his mind was a tangled mess, nearly finding the end of the thread but not quite able to grasp it, as it seemed to flicker in and out of visibility.

Had he missed some detail? Or was he getting close to the answer he sought?

Zhao Wuji didn’t notice Chu Ge’s perturbation and continued, "It was not until later, when we both moved on to university. The day of our first-year registration was precisely on the night of the full moon on August 15th."

Zhao Wuji seemed to recall something incredibly frightening, his pupils shrinking gradually, "That day I waited for her half of the day but didn’t see her, so I thought to look for her at her home. When I arrived at her doorstep, I found no sign of her, clueless about where she could have gone. As I was about to leave, suddenly a completely white wolf ran out from her kitchen. The wolf, with its crimson eyes and bared fangs, snarled at me, and in that moment of fright, without a second thought, I turned and fled."

Chu Ge’s eyes widened in shock, staring intently at him, "Are you talking about a Snow Wolf?"

Zhao Wuji hesitated, then shook his head in confusion, "I don’t know if it was a Snow Wolf. I was in no state to care about that at the time. All I wanted was to escape for my life."

Chu Ge slightly furrowed his brows, "You just mentioned that the wolf was completely white. What did its fur look like?"

Zhao Wuji thought carefully for a moment, then gently shook his head, "I was scared stiff at the time, my mind was in a haze, I didn’t have the presence of mind to notice such details before running away. Besides, it’s been so long, I’ve forgotten what that wolf looked like."

Chu Ge sighed, looked up at Zhao Wuji, and gestured for him to continue.

Zhao Wuji resumed his recollections.

"I was terribly scared and ran home, locked myself in my room for two full days without stepping outside. It was only on the third day that I went to school after receiving a call from there.

However, I discovered that during the three days I was absent from school, Mu Qing also hadn’t been there, even missing the registration period. And when I tried to contact her, she had suddenly become unreachable.

It wasn’t until the seventh day after her disappearance that Mu Qing returned to school. When I asked her where she had been, she only mentioned that she had been on a long trip. At the time, I didn’t really suspect anything, but the memory of that wolf in her home still haunted me. I asked her worriedly if she knew there was a wolf in her house. Mu Qing looked somewhat strange, but I didn’t think too much of it at the time. She nodded slightly and told me that it was her pet.

After saying that, she entered the classroom. Since then, I’ve always felt that Mu Qing has been hiding something from me. After she started university, her personality changed drastically, often giving people cold, dangerous looks as though everyone was her enemy. I thought she had suffered some sort of trauma, so I specially asked her about it.

She only told me that she was in a bad mood these days and then took a leave again."

As Chu Ge listened to Zhao Wuji’s recollections, his mind involuntarily began to sift through the information he had read before, trying to find some clues.

Snow Wolf...

The name Snow Wolf doesn’t just come from their dwelling in Snow Mountain; Snow Wolves are an advanced species of wolf.

But that’s all he knew.

Zhao Wuji was still talking when suddenly there was a knock on the door, interrupting his words.

Chu Ge and Zhao Wuji exchanged glances and stood up almost in sync.

Upon opening the door, they saw a middle-aged man in a black suit standing there, respectfully saying, "Our madam requests the presence of Mr. Chu."

Chu Ge glanced at Zhao Wuji, who wore a trace of indifference on his face, but Zhao Wuji himself was visibly overjoyed. He looked at the man a bit excitedly, asking anxiously, "Did our bid win?"

The man just smiled, "That is not within my jurisdiction, I am sorry."

"..."

Chu Ge patted Zhao Wuji’s shoulder, saying, "Regardless, I’ll go and see. As long as she is willing to meet me, that means everything is still possible. Wake up Huo Tianqian and be ready for my message at any time."

Zhao Wuji nodded.

Chu Ge followed the man through twists and turns to the hotel’s eighth floor, into an extremely spacious, large resting room.

The man knocked and announced the visit, then let Chu Ge enter.

As Chu Ge pushed the door open, he saw a woman sitting on a row of brown genuine leather sofas in the center. She was wearing a cheongsam with cyan and ink patterns, draped with a white shawl over her shoulders, her hair was pinned up, and she wore gold-rimmed glasses with gold chains casually hanging at the sides.

She took a sip from a cup of tea, her expression somewhat cold. She looked up at Chu Ge and then said, "So you are Chu Ge?"

Chu Ge had heard so much from Zhao Wuji before, but now seeing her in person for the first time, she was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

According to Zhao Wuji, Mu Qing was radiant with youth and unrestrained, even if some incident had made her character somewhat strange, her style remained flamboyant.

However, the Mu Qing sitting in front of him now looked like a dignified and scholarly woman, no matter how he looked at her.

Mu Qing, noticing Chu Ge’s stare, met his gaze with her cold eyes and slightly raised her eyebrows, asking, "As a junior, staring so directly at your elder, is this the kind of manners you have?"

Chu Ge was startled, then slowly curved his lips into a smile, "Madam, you are mistaken. I was just pondering what kind of tremendous upheaval could so completely change a person."

Now it was Mu Qing’s turn to be taken aback, but she quickly thought of something and scoffed disdainfully at the corner of her mouth, "Hmph, you think Zhao Wuji really understands me?"
