49 Xigu, I’m Disappointed in You

Judging from the fact that a press conference was being held on the day of the wedding, the reporters had already made a reasonable guess that the wedding was probably going to be canceled. Even so, they were still shocked and exploded when Chi Huan announced it.

"Miss Chi, it was said recently that Mr. Mo cheated on you. Did you cancel the wedding because of this?"

"Miss Chi, can you give us more details please?"

"Miss Chi…"

"…"

There were tons of follow-up questions but Chi Huan left them all behind and left. Reporters wanted to follow her but the security guards kept them away.

Mo Xigu's eyes followed Chi Huan to the crucifix and he watched her make the announcement and then walk back towards him but she didn't stop. She just walked past him without even looking at him.

There was nothing else other than indifference on her face that she wore like a delicate makeup.

As if he were just a stranger to her.

When she walked past Mo Shiqian, she said, "Let's go home," to him in a low and lazy tone.

The man said, "Yes," and followed behind her.

Watching her walking away in heels until she disappeared from his sight completely, Mo Xigu could not help but still chase after her.

He had no idea what he could say to her, or maybe there was already nothing else to say. Just like what she said to the reporters, a peaceful breakup would minimize the harm to anyone.

Probably because he understood her wrongly before, he felt particularly guilty at this moment.

And because she had come here in a large gesture, yet left as if nothing happened, he felt that he was being mocked by her. He felt as if she had slapped him in the face hard and left him in disdain.

He didn't catch her until he followed her to the staircase of another exit. He held her wrist and called out in a low voice, "Chi Huan."

Chi Huan stopped and looked back at him. "Is there anything else?"

Mo Xigu looked at her delicate face and moved his thin lips a bit. He said, "I'm sorry." His voice was low and particularly hoarse. "And thank you for saying that."

"You do have to apologize to me, but obviously it won't make up for anything." Chi Huan smiled at his solemn face. "As for thanks, no need. I didn't say that to save your face or because I do not want Su Yabing to be cursed. I'm not that kind of person."

Mo Xigu looked at her and swallowed. His voice was even lower and hoarser than before. "Really?"

Mo Xigu wasn't the only one who followed Chi Huan out. Chi Huan's father, who was here for the wedding, and Sister Yao, who was worried that she would make it worse, both chased after her.

Besides them, there was also a woman in high-quality fashionable clothes, with her hair braided who was coming towards them in heels. She was roughly in her forties but Chi Huan was standing with her back towards the woman, so she didn't see her.

She tilted her head with a light smile on her pretty face. "Do you want to know why I wanted to marry you?"

Mo Xigu didn't expect to hear this. He looked down at her and wasn't sure how he felt right now.

"I knew you when you were with Su Yabing. I was in high school at that time. One day I went to University T with Youran, and I saw someone saying her love confession to you…"

Mo Xigu looked at her with surprise. He said in a low voice, "You're talking about…"

Chi Huan nodded. "That's right. It was Cheng Su, Miss Cheng, who was in disguise as Su Yabing's friend. She tried to get near you no matter what it took. She was better than your girlfriend in every way. She was hot and bold. She had a great background and seduced you constantly. She even got herself wet to get to you… but she failed anyways."

Mo Xigu looked at the faint smile on her face. "At that time, I didn't know you yet."

He knew Chi Huan after Su Yabing had gone abroad.

"You had a girlfriend at that time and you loved her very much, of course I wouldn't bother you. I just thought it a virtue that a man could say no to temptations, because I had seen–" her smile grew bigger but she seemed to be less pleasant, "Some disgusting men who cheated on their girlfriends. Those men hooked up with their girlfriends' bosom friends. It's too disgusting."

Someone's facial expression changed a lot.

Mo Xigu looked at her. "That's… it?"

"Yes. No matter how strong a feeling is, it can turn into a sharp dagger and stab into your heart. So I wanted to find a man who wouldn't betray me for such temptations."

The color of her eyes seemed to fade. Her voice was mixed with the sound of the wind. "But then I thought about it and found that I was wrong from the very beginning. You refused Cheng Su not because you could resist temptation, but only because the woman who was a lot better than your girlfriend in your eyes was not a temptation for you. Probably only Su Yabing was attractive to you."

Chi Huan took her hand out of his palm and said quietly to him, "You can love her, but you shouldn't have lied to me. I'm disappointed in you, Xigu."

"I'm disappointed in you."

This wasn't harsh at all but looking at her perfect eyes and eyebrows, he could no longer hold the surging emotion in his chest, as if this was the harshest words she could ever say to him.

Sister Yao covered her mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, "Chi Huan… you're so twisted."

Chi Huan turned her eyes to Sister Yao and smiled like she didn't care. "Maybe. And that's why things would become like this now."

When she withdrew her gaze, she noticed a middle-aged man standing not far behind Sister Yao, but she turned away without a pause. Then she saw the middle-aged lady a few steps away who was looking at her.

The woman's back was straight and her hair was neat. She looked well with a slightly cold temperament. She was like a tough business woman.

They looked into each other's eyes. The wind of the early winter blew past with a sense of coldness.

Chi Huan's face turned cold to the extreme. She didn't look at anyone any longer. "Let's go."

With that, she went downstairs step by step in high heels. She looked straight ahead and the indifference all over her continued to be emitted.

Mo Shiqian pulled open the car door on the passenger seat's side for her and stared at her with his deep eyes, without saying a word.

Chi Huan bent to get into the car and didn't look at anyone.

The white Ferrari drove out of sight. Everyone who was left behind had a complicated feeling inside them.

Chi Huan lowered her head and curled up in the seat.

The man drove quietly.

Until her phone vibrated in her purse.

She took the phone out and picked it up after checking the caller ID. "Sister Yao."

"Huan'er, don't go home now. Reporters are waiting for you, and more of them are heading over there."

Chi Huan frowned. "Okay, got it."

"What's your plan? What about coming to my house?"

"No. I have somewhere to go."

"Call me if you need anything."

"Thank you, Sister Yao."

After hanging up the phone, Chi Huan looked at the man who was driving. "I can't go home now."
