Silent Confession

Yu Nanshan didn't speak for a long time, but Yu Tingyun at the side was startled first, and picked up the things on the table.

"...What divorce? Shao Shao wasn't..."

He looked at Zhou Muhui with his head bowed in front of him, and Yu Nanshan who was silent and silent, his eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"I made him sign it."

Yu Nanshan accepted the agreement with a cold gaze.

"…it's me."

Zhou Mu pursed her lips tightly and shook her head in a harsh voice, "I am willing."

He was not worthy of Xin Yi, on the first day when Xin Yi took him home, when Xin Yi said he liked him countless times, he knew how unworthy he was.

His heart is the sun, but Zhou Muhui is not even qualified to be Yuhui beside him.

How dare you dream of owning it.

It's just getting more and more reluctant...

It's just delusional.

I want to accompany him for more than a short distance, and I want to be together all the time as he said.

Until something happened to his family.

"... Does Xin Yi know?"

Zhou Muhui clenched his palms and shook his head silently.

"..."

Yu Tingyun was dumbfounded, but he realized in the next second, he turned around hastily, and said to Yu Nanshan, "Be careful if you know—"

"He won't know."

Yu Nanshan interrupted him calmly, lowered his eyes, and turned on the shredder beside him.

The sound of paper being torn was crisp, no one spoke in the study for a long time, Zhou Muhui took a breath, watching the thin sheets of paper turn into shreds in an instant, "Uncle Yu—"

"Xin Yi will marry you at that time."

Without looking up, Yu Nanshan picked up the IOU on the other side.

"I disagree."

"Xin Shao said you are a good boy, and Xin Yi also likes you, but you are special after all, I can't let my child marry a murderer."

Yu Nanshan put the IOU into the shredder and asked, "Do you remember what you said at that time."

Zhou Mu turned dumb.

Two years ago, Zhou Mu took back Xin Yi's money and promised to marry Xin Yi.

He and Xin Yi went home to meet his parents, they chatted for three hours, his former teacher frowned at him, and the first thing he said was, "Xiao Zhou, how much do you like him?"

"Xiaoyi is not very smart, he does things as he likes. I know he really likes you, but what about you, is it impulsive, or have you considered it?"

Zhou Muhui didn't speak for a long time, he didn't even have the face to say that he also likes Xin Yi.

"The teacher never intended to break up the two of you, but Xinyi is too small. We hope you love him, and he decided to be together because he loves you."

"My mother is sick..."

Zhou Mu echoed with a hoarse voice, almost speechless, "Xiaoyi...he gave me 100 million."

After the words fell, everything was a foregone conclusion, but he never thought of concealing it. Xin Yi's sincerity was so sincere and bright that Zhou Muhui was reluctant to spoil it a little bit.

He confessed this matter to Xin Shao and the others, the elders were astonished, Yu Tingyun even turned cold on the spot, and asked him, "Then you are selling yourself?"

Zhou Mu trembled at his fingertips, but took a step back in the next second, and lowered his head deeply.

"I will pay back the money, and I will pay back all the money within five years."

He didn't dare to look up at Xin Yi's parents, his heart was empty, he only thought about the child who was still smiling at him just now.

So good, so obedient Xin Yi, Zhou Muhui is true...

really like him.

"no…"

Xin Shao was stunned, and shook his head after a long time, "You guys are messing around, I can't agree."

Zhou Muhui clenched his hands, and bent down to someone for the first time.

"I will sign the divorce agreement. If he doesn't like it in the future and wants to separate, he will follow what he said."

"Teacher, I will give him whatever he wants."

"I..." Zhou Mu replied hoarsely, "I like him."

"Xin Shao's heart is soft, and she also cared that Xin Yi likes you, and at the end she agreed."

"I'm also afraid that Xin Yi will be sad in the future and won't let you sign that agreement."

Yu Nanshan paused when he said this, "But as a parent, you always have to think about your children."

"My son, there is no way out."

The study room fell into extreme silence, only the soft beep of the paper shredder was still vibrating. Zhou Mu looked back at Yu Nanshan, who had his back turned to him, and nodded for a long time.

"I see."

It's like he was afraid that the child would regret it in the future, so he left a way out for Xin Yi.

So Yu Nanshan also looked for him after the conversation that day. In that empty and bright office, the other party handed over a prepared divorce agreement just like him today.

"Three years, pay back the money, if Xin Yi feels unwilling in the middle, leave immediately."

A pen rolled over on the mahogany table, and Yu Nanshan nodded at him, "Sign it."

Zhou Mu took the pen back and flipped to the end without thinking, but when the pen was half finished, another deep male voice came from beside him.

"If you can't do it, you will divorce him in three years."

Zhou Mu froze for a moment, the tip of the pen was sharp, Zhou had already written the end, the half-stop vertical hook almost fainted the surrounding traces, but moved to the right in the next second.

Zhou Mu signed it back.

"Uncle Yu, what I said will never change."

With a hoarse voice, he promised Yu Nanshan.

"But this time..."

Zhou Mu looked up, "I want to start over with him."

There is no 100 million, no concessions that are promised and acquiesced, only Zhou Muhui who likes Xinyi, and only Zhou Muhui who wants to be with Xinyi for the rest of his life.

Zhou Muhui is willing to be his trial and error stone, but more wants to be his eternal safe haven.

When Zhou Mu went back, Xin Yi had already fallen asleep, the room was quiet, only a dim wall lamp was on, Zhou Mu looked back at the person on the bed with his back facing him, with a smile in his eyes, but his fingers touched the wall for a long time , just turned off the light.

Afraid of waking Xin Yi up, he even sloppily finished washing, and when he lay down next to the child, the soul bell rang, and he returned to his hometown in an instant.

Zhou Mu pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a faint smile, but it was covered by a loud bang in the next second.

Xin Yi pulled off the quilt and covered his head with his head and face.

"...Small idea?"

Zhou Mu was stunned.

"…Um."

Xin Yi agreed in a muffled voice, and Zhou Muhui felt someone sitting up beside him, his toes were slightly cold, and he accidentally brushed across Zhou Muhui's waist to expose the skin.

Zhou Mu paused for a moment, swallowed what he was about to say, but unnaturally turned to the side, and asked him, "Why did you wake up, is it uncomfortable?"

He couldn't move, because the child was tightly pressed against the edge of the quilt, and Zhou Muhui was wrapped in the darkness, with only one hand that slipped through the net, about an inch or two away from Xin Yi.

But Xin Yi didn't notice.

"I'm not drunk anymore."

Xin Yi said, "I don't feel bad either."

His voice was a little nasal, as if he had caught a cold or just finished crying.

Zhou Muhui couldn't tell which one it was, because for their children, all of them were possible.

"Come back Zhou Mu, I want to chat with you."

He spoke irregularly, and leaned towards Zhou Muhui unconsciously, probably because he drank a little wine, Zhou Muhui always felt that his body was hotter than before.

"Okay." Zhou Muhui backed away again and said, "What do you want to talk about?"

His voice was a little hoarse, and his body smelled a little heavy. Even if he blew the wind on the balcony for half an hour at the end, it didn't dissipate much.

"did you drink?"

Xin Yi sniffled.

He lowered his head like a cat, and leaned close to Zhou Muhui to smell it.

"... drank it."

Zhou Mu couldn't avoid him and said, "Drink with Uncle Yu and the others."

After he finished speaking, the three of them had another drink, and the theme was roughly a unilateral warning to Zhou Muhui, telling him not to have the slightest thought of bullying Xin Yi.

"…Won't."

Zhou Mu smiled back, thinking in his heart.

It's too late to like.

"No wonder, no wonder it's so late."

The child nodded slowly, a little aggrieved, "It's already two o'clock."

"..."

"It was my fault."

Zhou Mu felt distressed, and corrected when he knew his mistake, "I won't drink from now on."

Xin Yi stopped talking, Zhou Muhui wasn't sure if he was really drunk, but he just lifted a corner of the quilt when Xin Yi slapped him hard.

"Don't move, I'll be scared."

He suddenly turned over and sat on Zhou Muhui's waist. The quilt on Zhou Muhui's face was torn apart by him, but before Zhou Muhui could see anything by the moonlight, Xin Yi covered him again. .

He didn't know where to find the tie, put it on Zhou Mu's eyes, and tied it back again.

"I want to see you...but I don't want you to see me."

he said sadly.

"..."

Zhou Muhui's other hand was still entangled in the quilt, so he had no choice but to catch him with the fish that slipped through the net. The child's voice was trembling, and when he saw him coming, he slapped him in a panic.

"Don't move!"

"…What's wrong?"

Zhou Mu was taken aback for a moment, and lowered his voice for fear of scaring him.

There was something wrong with his Xinyi, Zhou Muhui could sense his sensitive emotions, as well as his ready-to-express fragility.

"me…"

The child panicked and forced himself to calm down in the next second.

"I want to ask you...I want to ask you..."

He finally opened his mouth, as if he had thrown away all the doubts and fears of the past two months with the following sentence.

From now on... don't care about it anymore!

"Xiaoyi, I love you."

Zhou Muhui held him first.

Xin Yi's voice stopped abruptly, he lowered his head blankly, as if lost his soul, and asked, "What?"

"I love you."

Zhou Muhui held him accurately in the dark, and he rubbed the soft gauze in Xin Yi's palm, which was the evidence that Zhou Muhui made him angry last night.

Zhou Mu felt distressed, he didn't know what happened to Xin Yi, but he didn't want to make Xin Yi sad.

It took a long time before Xin Yi seemed to come back to his senses. He looked blankly at Zhou Muhui who was blindfolded, and then lay down.

"Can, can you say it again?"

Xin Yi asked hoarsely.

He pressed against Zhou Muhui through the quilt, and the two breathed intertwined and lingeringly. Zhou Muhui looked at him tenderly through the darkness, and said again, "I like you."

"Love you."

"say it one more time."

"I love you."

"say it one more time."

"..." Zhou Muhui sighed, "I love you."

Xin Yi suddenly cried.

He pinched Zhou Muhui's arm, leaving mottled finger marks, his teeth clenched tightly, biting him like a mad puppy.

"...Xin Yi?"

"what-"

He gasped and opened his mouth, but tears and scorching breath fell down together, he couldn't speak, his throat seemed to be full of blunt knives turned from long-term pain, everything he wanted to say, everything he wanted to say turned into a single cry A short moan.

Fear, fear, would drive him crazy in just two months. Xin Yi knew that he was stupid and cowardly, that's why he couldn't even utter an ordinary question like his mother said.

But why can't you say it, why don't you ask him.

Xin Yi stuck her short nails into his arm, dripping hot tears on his neck.

Because I'm afraid, because I can't bear it, because I can't afford to gamble.

Because he loves Zhou Muhui.

"I'm at home, I'm at home... I found the divorce agreement..."

He asked, "Zhou Muhui, why did you divorce me?"

"I'm so scared."

He burst into tears.

Zhou Mu was stunned for a long time before hugging him in a hurry.

He didn't have time to ask how the child knew, or how long he knew, and how long he was sad, because his Xin Yi was crying, and Zhou Muhui, whose tears were hot, was about to tremble.

"No."

He pressed the child into his arms and rubbed his rapidly trembling back vigorously.

"No, Xiaoyi, I love you."

He said over and over again, "There is no divorce, Xiaoyi, I love you."

He hugged the crying child with his body, and hid him tightly in his arms. Zhou Mu turned around and bowed his head to kiss him, kissing the wet and red corners of his eyes, "I don't want a divorce, I'm not afraid of being small."

"I saw it... I saw it."

"No."

The tie on his eyes fell apart during the struggle and fell on Xin Yi's body. Zhou Muhui grabbed his thin white fingers, half pressed on him and looked down at him.

"Xiaoyi, listen to me."

He comforted Xin Yi patiently, and when his tears slowly stopped, his child hiccupped in his arms and looked at him with tears all over his face.

"I don't want to divorce you, not before, not in the future."

He gently held Xin Yi's fingers, fearing that he would hurt the back of his hand if he struggled again.

"Xiaoyi, Zhou Muhui loves you, but you are too young, Zhou Muhui doesn't know..."

He paused for a while, then said hoarsely, "Will you regret it?"

"The divorce agreement...is what you use to restrain me, and it's a way out for you."

"..."

Xin Yi looked at him blankly with tears in her eyes.

"If one day you don't like me anymore and you regret it, you can use it..."

Throw Zhou Muhui away at any time.

"I do not know!"

Xin Yi understood and understood, he only thought about Zhou Muhui wanting to divorce him, but never thought that this thing...was prepared for himself.

"I don't want to leave you—"

"Never leave."

Zhou Mu pressed her forehead back to him, and said hastily, "We won't divorce."

He said that the divorce agreement had been torn up, and there would be no more in the future, and Xin Yi asked him why.

Zhou Mu paused for a few seconds, then looked at him and said.

"Because... I want to start over with you."

I want to be with you cleanly and purely.

Just because you love me, I love you too.

Zhou Mu turned back, entangled with him in the quilt, and called him.

"Xiaoyi, let's start again."
