Chapter 1481 1601, Unconditional Trust

Mu Ningjing opened the door and took the salt from Shen Tingxi, "Why did you take so long? I thought you didn't know the way."

Her voice was soft and lightly smiled. Mu Ningjing rarely joked. It seemed that she was in a good mood today. Was it because he was back?

Thinking of this, Shen Tingxi unconsciously raised the corners of his lips. The anger he had felt because of the words of the store woman disappeared instantly.

Mu Ningjing looked back and saw Shen Tingxi following in. Thinking of the passionate kiss they had just had in the kitchen, her face instantly burned up. She reached out and gently pushed his arm, "You go out."

Shen Tingxi smiled and held Mu Ningjing's hand, "I'll accompany you."

"No, go out quickly." Mu Ningjing blushed and lowered her head to pull her hand out of Shen Tingxi's large palm.

Shen Tingxi stood still, "Let me kiss you and I'll leave."

Mu Ningjing's hands hanging by her side slightly clenched her apron, lowered her head and pursed her lips without saying a word.

Shen Tingxi saw Mu Ningjing's nervousness, smiled and touched her head, "You do your work, I'll go out." Then he turned and left the kitchen.

He couldn't be too impatient, he had to take his time.

While eating, Shen Tingxi said casually, "I heard someone say bad things about you when I went to buy salt just now."

Mu Ningjing's eating action immediately stopped, and she looked at Shen Tingxi nervously. What bad things? Mu Ningjing knew that since Yu Anna came to her place and made trouble that day, people nearby looked at her with ridicule and disdain. She also heard some of those bad words, but she didn't care, but she cared very much about Shen Tingxi's opinion of her.

Shen Tingxi picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into Mu Ningjing's bowl, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Mu Ningjing tightened her chopsticks and looked at Shen Tingxi with a tense expression, "Do you believe what they said?"

Shen Tingxi frowned and looked at Mu Ningjing, thinking that her question was very stupid, "I'm not stupid."

Mu Ningjing didn't hear Shen Tingxi's direct answer, but she was still worried and asked again: "Do you believe it?"

"No." Shen Tingxi put down his chopsticks and looked at Mu Ningjing with a serious face, "Ningning, you move? Leave here, otherwise I'm afraid I can't help but cut off the tongues of those people."

Mu Ningjing felt a wave of heat hit her heart. Not only did he trust her unconditionally, but he also protected her so much. This feeling was too good, making her want to cry, and tears fell without warning.

Seeing Mu Ningjing crying, Shen Tingxi immediately showed anxiety. He stood up, walked around the small dining table and came to Mu Ningjing. He squatted beside her and wiped her tears with his warm fingertips. His low voice was very soft and gentle, "Blame me. I couldn't protect you well by your side. Don't cry. I feel bad."

Mu Ningjing shook her head gently, turned around and looked at the man who was usually high and mighty but now squatted in front of her. How could she blame him? Her slender fingers gently stroked his deep and three-dimensional face, "Tingxi..."

She obviously had a lot of things to say to him in her heart, wanted to say thank you for trusting her, wanted to explain the matter between her and Mu Yiqing, but after calling his name softly, she couldn't say a word.

"Okay, don't cry." Shen Tingxi gently wiped Mu Ningjing's tears.

After a while, Mu Ningjing calmed down. The two continued to eat. Shen Tingxi brought up the issue of moving again, "I have a house in Qinyuan, why don't you move there?"

Mu Ningjing subconsciously wanted to refuse, "I..."

"Don't worry, I don't live there." Shen Tingxi explained, "Yan Qing also has a house there. He and Shu Xin occasionally live there. If you move there, you can be their neighbors."

Mu Ningjing looked down at the rice in the bowl, "I can find another place to live by myself."

"Ningning." Shen Tingxi frowned and looked at Mu Ningjing, obviously unhappy, "What am I to you in your heart?"

Mu Ningjing raised her eyes and glanced at Shen Tingxi, her little face Blushing slightly, she lowered her head and whispered, "Boyfriend."

"Since we are boyfriends, can you let me exercise my boyfriend's power occasionally? You never spend my money, don't let me buy you clothes, don't let me buy you furniture, don't tell me when there is something wrong, and take care of everything yourself, then what is the meaning of my existence as a boyfriend?"

Mu Ningjing pursed her lips, raised her eyes and looked at Shen Tingxi, her eyes were a little hesitant and anxious, "I just... don't want to cause you trouble."

"You are not a trouble to me, even if you are a trouble, I am willing, can you not treat me as an outsider?"

Mu Ningjing pursed her lips and shook her head, how could she treat him as an outsider? He is the most precious person in her heart, so she doesn't want to give him any burden, for fear that she will dislike her and find her annoying.

"Since you don't treat me as an outsider, can you try to trust me and rely on me?"

Mu Ningjing looked at Shen Tingxi for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

The ravines between Shen Tingxi's eyebrows slowly stretched out, "I'll come to help you move in two days on the weekend."

"Yeah."

After dinner, Shen Tingxi rushed to wash the dishes. Mu Ningjing couldn't resist him, so she let him go. But when she thought of the first time he rushed to wash the dishes, he not only broke the dishes, but also got himself wet. Mu Ningjing couldn't help but curled the corners of her lips.

A man like Shen Tingxi who has been in the bloody storm has also stood quietly in front of the kitchen sink to wash dishes. Mu Ningjing sometimes thinks it's a bit incredible.

Shen Tingxi came out after washing the dishes and proposed to go out for a walk with Mu Ningjing, but Mu Ningjing refused. Now everyone in the community looks at her with ridicule and contempt. If she goes out for a walk at this time and Shen Tingxi hears any bad words, Mu Ningjing is worried that he will hit her on the spot.

The two didn't go out and sat on the sofa together watching TV.

The atmosphere was quiet, and Mu Jingping's mood calmed down, so she told Shen Tingxi everything about her and Mu Yiqing. Although he believed her, she felt it was still necessary to explain.

Shen Tingxi already knew the general story from Dong Zai, but he didn't want Mu Jingran to know that he had arranged someone to protect her in private.

On the one hand, she is sensitive and fragile, and he is worried that she will think wildly if she finds out, thinking that he does not trust her or is spying on her.

On the other hand, he didn't want her to feel that being with him was dangerous. He could just protect her in secret. He didn't want her to experience those days of fear.

Mu Jingping emphatically talked about how she and Mu Yiqing got to know each other, and that the two were fellow villagers, and that her mother was Mu Yiqing's first love. When Yu Anna came to her place to make trouble, Shen Tingxi's face was cold and cold. Shen, especially his eyes, were filled with deep understanding, cold and murderous.

Mu Jingping gently held his hand, "I'm fine now, don't do this."

Shen Tingxi was afraid of scaring Mu Jingping, so she instantly suppressed her accidentally exposed emotions. At this moment, the phone in her pocket rang, and the caller ID was Yu Anna.
