It seemed like a layer of frost covered his well-defined face, his expression was harsh and cold .
Nan Zhi was frightened by his sudden frostiness .
She did not know how she had offended him .
His eyes were bloodshot, and under the lights, he appeared sullen and aloof .
Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “What's wrong?”
Mu Sihan closed his eyes and opened them again . Seeing the panic and worry in Nan Zhi's eyes, he pursed his lips tightly and said shortly, “Just a dream . ”
Before meeting her, he had already stopped having that nightmare . But after she had appeared, he had had that dream twice .
The first time was when he learned that someone had given her a ring .
This time was hearing her mention her uncle .
“Are you okay?” Nan Zhi reached out her hand towards him, but before she could touch him, he avoided her and said coldly, “Don't touch me . ”
Nan Zhi's breathing hitched and she felt a tightening in her chest .
Jumping off the bed, Mu Sihan took out a bottle of medicine from his suitcase and his emotions calmed down after swallowing down several pills .
Nan Zhi sat by the bedside and looked at him . She wanted to ask what he had dreamed of, to make him look at her with such an icy gaze .
But, seeing his dark gaze, she swallowed back the words .
She could only conclude that he must be a man with a story .
If he was not willing to tell her, she would not ask .
She could understand more than anyone, that everyone had a past that they did not want to talk about .
After calming down, Mu Sihan came forward and stroked Nan Zhi's long hair . “I'll be going on a business trip, so I can't go to the filming . I'll call you when I get back . ”
Picking up his suitcase, he left as soon as he finished speaking .
He did not tease or kiss her in his domineering manner like he always did .
It was strangely discomforting .
After Mu Sihan left, Nan Zhi was feeling somewhat confused .
However, despite feeling discomfort both physically and mentally, she was extremely professional and did not let it detract from her work . When she was working, she was since4 and sweet, confident and fluent in front of the cameras .
After the filming, the team left the mountain .
By the time they finally returned to the city, it was already close to evening . Nan Zhi had just gotten out of the taxi and was about to enter the gate when a tall figure walked over suddenly .
Nan Zhi looked up and met with a pair of deep and complicated-looking brown eyes .
Bo Shaoxiu .
She did not expect to meet him here .
He had spent nearly half a month in the hospital after getting beaten up by Mu Sihan .
It had already been some time since she had last seen him . He was much thinner and a lot more haggard compared to before .
Bo Shaoxiu had come specifically to look for Nan Zhi . He and Nan Yao had already set a wedding date . It was an auspicious date, scheduled for the sixth day of coming month .
The closer it got to the wedding, the more anxious and empty he felt .
It had felt like something was missing .
Until last night, he quarrelled with Nan Yao and she asked him if he still loved Nan Zhi .
At that time, he felt a strong emotion surging up from his heart and he almost replied to Nan Yao saying that he still wasn't able to let go of Nan Zhi .
Although Nan Zhi was no longer pure, he had chased after her for two years and did not even get to kiss her . He could not accept it .
During his hospitalization period, images of Nan Zhi appeared in his mind from time to time . She had given birth to a child, but her figure was still like that of a young woman, losing the childishness of youth and growing more and more beautiful . When she stood on the stage, she was beautiful, confident and full of vigor .
She was captivating .
Unlike Nan Yao, who had recently taken to complaining and nagging at him, her eyes filled with tears and lips twisted into a constant pout . Her temper had only gotten worse after she carried his child . It was nauseating and he was tired of being around her when she was like that .
Nan Zhi did not want to talk to Bo Shaoxiu at all . She gave him a side glance and made to avoid him . But after a few steps, her wrist was grabbed by Bo Shaoxiu and held in a firm grasp .
