Chapter 1488 1608, You Hurt Me

Shen Tingxi curled his lips slightly, a good start, and continued, "I have had many women before. Are you afraid that I will be with those women in the future?"

Mu Ningjing turned her head and looked at Shen Tingxi nervously. She didn't understand why he suddenly asked this question. Could it be that because of her fear of men and women, he had no patience, didn't want to wait, and wanted to find another woman?

Thinking of this possibility, Mu Ningjing's heart ached slightly, her eyes were wet all of a sudden, and her misty eyes looked at Shen Tingxi pitifully.

Shen Tingxi was scared and hurriedly took her hand and said, "Ningning, don't think about it. I don't want to find another woman. I just want to ask, do you have this worry in your heart?"

Mu Ningjing nodded. How could she not? She spent almost every day in self-doubt and fear.

She had a bad background and a bad past. Does Shen Tingxi really like her like this? Will it be like what Mu Yiqing and Hu Xiner said, that he was just fresh to her for a while, and lost interest in her after this excitement.

She resisted his closeness, not knowing whether she would come out of the shadow of the past. Although she was trying, she was still full of fear about the relationship between men and women. She was not sure whether she could be with him completely, but he was a normal man. After a long time, he would definitely leave her, right?

"If there is a way to make me belong to you completely, are you willing to do it?"

Mu Ningjing's misty eyes were instantly filled with fear, and she subconsciously pulled her hand out of Shen Tingxi's palm, "I... I'm not... ready yet."

Shen Tingxi was stunned for a moment before realizing that Mu Ningjing had misunderstood him. Regarding her sensitivity, Shen Tingxi helplessly curled the corners of his lips, "It's not the way you think, other, very pure, and does not require intimate contact. Are you willing?"

Mu Ningjing's watery eyes were filled with surprise and excitement, and she nodded quickly, "Yes."

People who have come from bloody storms have seen all kinds of scenes, but Shen Tingxi, who is not afraid of anything, is a little scared at this moment. There is no way. His proposal was rejected twice, and his self-confidence was seriously damaged.

Shen Tingxi exhaled lightly, and in Mu Ningjing's expectant eyes, he said seriously, "We can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the certificate, become a legal couple, and I will be yours for the rest of my life."

Mu Ningjing was stunned. Is he proposing to her again?

After the surprise, there was hesitation and helplessness.

She promised Ju Qiulan that she would not marry Shen Tingxi within a year.

Mu Ningjing retracted her gaze and slowly lowered her head, "Tingxi..."

"If you think that holding a wedding is too noisy, we can not hold a wedding. If you are busy with work recently and have no time, we can also wait until you have time to get the certificate. Also, if you don't want to have sex with me, I won't force you. I can wait." Shen Tingxi looked nervous and anxious.

Mu Ningjing twisted her hands tightly together. Because she was too strong, her slender fingertips were white. She was silent for several seconds, lowered her head and said softly, "I'm sleepy."

Shen Tingxi's heart hurt badly, and her expression instantly became sluggish. Is this rejecting him again?

But he was unwilling to give up. Shen Tingxi held Mu Ningjing's shoulders. Because of his emotional ups and downs, the strength in his hands was a little heavy. He looked at her deeply, "Why? Ningning, I can feel that you care about me, why do you still reject me?"

Mu Ningjing looked up at Shen Tingxi. The hurt in his eyes made her unable to look directly at him. She quickly lowered her head again, gently twisted her shoulders, and whispered: "You hurt me."

"Ningning, what are you avoiding?"

"You really hurt me... I'm sleepy."

Shen Tingxi looked at Mu Ningjing in frustration and stubbornness, but she kept her head down and had no intention of changing her mind. The disappointment in Shen Tingxi's eyes gradually became stronger, and the strength in his hands gradually loosened. He let her go, stood up, and his voice was full of endless loss, "You take a rest."

Mu Ningjing looked up at Shen Tingxi walking slowly towards the door. His tall back revealed a loneliness that broke her heart. She pursed her lips and the tears she had held back for a long time fell.

Mu Ningjing sat by the bed for a long time, listening to the noises in the next room, but she didn't hear a single sound. The villa was so quiet that it seemed as if he wasn't here at all.

What was he doing? Would he ignore her from now on? Would he leave her?

Mu Ningjing became more and more worried, and couldn't sit still any longer. She got up and left the room. She came to the door of Shen Tingxi's room. The door was not closed. She looked around the house, but didn't see him.

Mu Ningjing was scared. Did he leave? But she didn't hear any sound. Could it be that the sound insulation of the house was too good, and she didn't feel him leaving?

Mu Ningjing hurriedly walked into the room, the balcony, the bathroom, and looked for them all, but there was still no one. After leaving his room, Mu Ningjing's face turned pale, and tears fell in strings. He left, didn't want her anymore?

Mu Ningjing looked around the villa, and when she came to the door of the study and saw the familiar figure, her tense nerves relaxed.

He stood in front of the window with his back to the door, his hands in his trouser pockets. His tall figure was dimmed by the light and darkness, and the sadness was revealed from his cold and gloomy back.

Mu Ningjing watched quietly at the door for a while, then turned back to the room and lay on the bed without sleeping.

The night deepened.

It was not until the second half of the night that there was movement in Shen Tingxi's room.

Mu Ningjing tossed and turned in bed, not knowing when she fell asleep. When she woke up, it was just hazy. After washing up, she came to the door of Shen Tingxi's room. His bed was clean and flat, and the quilt on the bed seemed to be the same as she folded it yesterday. Didn't he sleep at night?

Mu Ningjing looked around the villa but didn't see him. She saw a hot breakfast on the dining table in the living room, porridge and fried dumplings from Yuhelou. There was a note under the lunch box, with full and powerful fonts.

It said: Eat well.

Four simple words that contained worry.

For several days in a row, Mu Ningjing didn't see Shen Tingxi, but she received several calls from Dongzi every day, all saying that Shen Tingxi was very busy and very good. These words, did he ask Dongzi to report his whereabouts to her to let her feel at ease?

But he didn't want to call her in person.

At night, he would come back to sleep every day, but very late, sometimes even in the early morning, just to take a shower, change clothes and go out again.

This went on for nearly ten days. Shen Tingxi was on a business trip. Mu Ningjing saw the note he left on the dining table when she got home. He didn't tell her when he would be back, but only told her to eat well and sleep well.

Mu Ningjing stared at the note in her hand for a long time. Tears started to fall as she read it, and then she squatted on the ground and cried uncontrollably, as if she had been holding it in for the past few days and now suddenly let it out, like a flood that had opened the gates, rushing out and could not be stopped.
