365: Chapter 365 I Have No Money to Treat

Chapter 365 I Have No Money to Treat

I subconsciously tightened my grip on my finger. My sharp fingernails hurt my palm. The pain made me feel at ease. If it wasn't for the piercing pain in my palm, I would have been afraid that I would n' t be able to control my emotions and facial expressions. When I was facing Qi Mu, I didn't have the confidence to control my expression. He was the most uncontrollable existence in the world. 0

Qi Mu face was calm and without any unnecessary expression, but I still felt a chill all over my body. Other than the pain in my palm print, there were also waves of soreness in my heart that continued slowly. I tightly grabbed my hand and didn't even dare to hold my chest. I was afraid that Qi Mu would see me, and that he would see my weakness and uncontrollable pain. I'm not afraid that my cowardice will be seen by him. I' m just afraid that my pain will cause him even more pain. My heart ached for Qi Mu. My heart ached for the past of Qi Mu and me.

I tried my best to force myself to hold on to that force. I turned my head and gave Lin Haoran a brilliant smile." Yes, it's great."

A trace of surprise flashed across Lin Haoran face before a faint smile appeared on his lips. It was just like that for a meal. There were several times in the middle when Li Wenting smiled and spoke to Qi Mu repeatedly. I couldn't hear what she was saying. Actually, we were so close that we should have heard it clearly. However, for some reason, I could only see Li Wenting mouth moving, unable to hear what she was saying.

I was a little nervous that something was wrong with me. I subconsciously grabbed Lin Haoran clothes with my other hand and whispered in his ear," I've finished eating. Are you full? Shall we go?"

Lin Haoran glanced at me, then quickly picked up a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth. He looked up at Qi Mu and Li Wenting across the table and calmly said," Yes, we've finished eating. We' ll have some activities later, so we'll leave first. "Let's Chief Qi treat this meal. I' ll pay it back next time."

After that, she pulled me up and planned to leave. I smiled at Li Wenting and signaled to leave. I didn't dare to take a look at Qi Mu.

As soon as we left the seat, we took a step forward and heard Qi Mu low voice," Then when is the next time?"

Lin Haoran and I stopped in their tracks and looked back at Qi Mu in surprise. Qi Mu eyes were fixed on me all the time. The moment I looked back, he immediately looked at Lin Haoran again. There was an unknown smile at the corner of his mouth. This kind of smile could not make people feel any warmth, except for the cold and the cold.

I tightly grabbed the corner of Lin Haoran's clothes and did n' t dare to let go. I was afraid that as long as I didn't have any support, I would immediately lose all my strength and sit there, unable to take a single step.

I didn't say anything. I used all my strength to control myself. After Lin Haoran paused for a few seconds, I smiled and said to Qi Mu," Chief Qi's joking. It's just a meal. If you' re polite, do Chief Qi still take it that seriously? If Chief Qi really don't like it, I can call you later."

Qi Mu sneered." Don't call me Chief Qi. Everyone knows that in the Qi Clan, I' m just Qi Mu idle."

The word "idle ", with its sarcastic tone and cold tone, struck heavily on my heart. It was because of what I did that Qi Mu became an idle person.

Qi Mu looked at me. Even though I didn't look at him, his gaze could n' t be ignored. Then he continued," That's why I' m at the end of my life. I really can't afford this meal."

Having said that, I took a look at Lin Haoran and his expression turned ugly. The politeness and smile on his face that he had just maintained was now completely cold. He frowned and said impatiently," Alright, I won't trouble Mr. Qi for this meal. I' ll invite you."

As he spoke, he pulled my hand towards the checkout counter. I was pulled by Lin Haoran and walked forward passively. As soon as I took half a step, my other hand was restrained by someone. I turned back in fear and Qi Mu a cold face in front of my eyes. His palm was as cold as it used to be, and he tightly grabbed my palm. That familiar chill almost instantly swallowed my consciousness.

The Li Wenting beside her also stood up and looked back and forth between me and Qi Mu. She looked at us blankly. I could imagine the doubts in her heart.

Li Wenting gently tugged at Qi Mu sleeve." Ah Mu, what's wrong with you?"

I instantly looked over, Li Wenting the fear in my eyes made my heart ache. Although Li Wenting didn't know what the reason was between us, she was still a woman without any memories. She must have sensed something was wrong. When I saw the injury in her eyes, I felt a little guilty because of Qi Mu coldness and the attack.

I shook off Qi Mu hand with all my strength and smiled at him." We've invited you for this meal. Mr. Qi, do n' t make things difficult for you." "My relationship with Wen Ting is good. It's no big deal to treat her to a meal."

After that, I walked around Qi Mu and patted Li Wenting arm gently." It's fine. They used to play such jokes. We women do n' t need to pay attention to some boring jokes between men." We've finished eating. We do have other plans in a while, so we' ll leave first. "Have a good time with Qi Mu and don't worry about eating."

I didn't look at Qi Mu anymore. I pulled Lin Haoran and walked towards the exit. When I reached the front desk, Lin Haoran settled my debts. My entire body was numb and stiff. However, I didn't dare to turn around. I was afraid that I would look at me like a shadow as soon as I turned around. To me, it was like cutting through a blade, a pain that would make me unable to endure.

It wasn't until I got into the car that Pineapple brought us that my last strength completely dissipated from my body. I closed my eyes and slumped into the passenger seat. If Qi Mu came out again at this moment and refused to let me go again, all my strength in disguise would have ended and I would never be able to act as if nothing had happened.

"It's fine. We' re leaving now." Lin Haoran comforted her and placed her palm on the back of my hand for a while.

I didn't have the strength to nod and answer him. I did n' t even have the intention to open my eyes. Just like that, I felt the vibration of the car and let out a gentle breath. I knew that I was getting further and further away from him. I knew that I was actually fleeing. However, I found it cowardly. I had to admit that distance was a very effective way to relieve pain.
