Chapter 269: This Matter Became His Obsession

Shen Muchen could clearly see she was pretending everything was fine.

"Xiao Qiu..."

He wanted to step forward and comfort her, but ultimately he stopped himself.

Right now, he didn't dare to make any intimate gestures towards her, because he was already feeling extremely guilty.

Yet at the same time, he was also angry. How could Fu Jingchen treat her like this?

This was the woman he would hold dear and protect with his life, and yet that man scorned and neglected her so.

Fu Jingchen... what gives you the right?

"...Senior brother, I'm a bit tired, I want to go home, to lie down in bed and have a good sleep," she said with a forced smile, speaking softly, "Since we can't find Lin Yuxi for now, let's not search anymore... After all, even if we find her, it probably won't be of much use."

She was clear in her heart that Fu Jingchen's suspicions and misunderstandings towards her were not born out of this single incident.

They had been there all along, and could not be ignored.
