The Old Fox Sets a Trap to Lure Wen Xin

"Finding this cufflink was what convinced me you were in the Independent State. Otherwise, I was on the verge of going insane with no news at all, which has never happened before."

Wen Xin lay on Mu Chengxi's chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat. She felt an overwhelming urge to cry.

After so many days, her heart finally found some peace. She had a terrible dream last night, one where she couldn't save Mu Chengxi, and he eventually left her.

Alfredo, having just changed his bandages, stood outside Mu Chengxi's room, looking through the window at the two of them holding each other tightly on the bed. His heart ached sharply.

It was a scene he had always fantasized about, but the person lying beside her was not him. Perhaps, he thought, he would never have the right to be by her side.

Early in the morning, Chu Yunxuan rushed in. Wen Xin, just waking up, was surprised to see her. She had arranged for her to leave, so why was she back?
