Chapter 429: Chapter 429 He’s Finally Here...3

Ye Ning’s heart sank. She wanted to explain, she wanted to deny, but under such a gaze, it was as if her mind had lost the ability to think. All she had was a blank, nothing else.

Yes, with that kind of look in his eyes, that kind of attitude, he probably wouldn’t believe anything she said. Moreover, when they were in Japan, she had already let him see with his own eyes that she was the one plotting against him and "the one who’d kill him".

Ye Ning fiercely closed her eyes!

She thought he would just leave, but at that moment, in the now silent living room, suddenly there came the sound of leather shoes treading on the floor, approaching from the outside.

Her heart skipped a beat for no reason, and her eyes abruptly flew open again.

Indeed, it was a tall figure swiftly closing in, like a beast finally springing into action. In just two or three seconds, he stood in front of her, blocking all her light.

"I only have one question for you!"

"Hmm?"

"Have you ever thought about killing me?"

His words came out one by one, as if squeezing from his chest, he loomed over her, his eyes dark red, like a wolf on the verge of pouncing!

Yes, this was the real reason he came here today.

He already knew her real identity, and he was aware she was using him. All that, he could pretend not to see, could act as if he was ignorant.

But regarding the matter of killing him, he couldn’t do it. If it were true, he swore, he would tear her to pieces.

Ye Ning’s mouth dropped open. She had never expected that he would come to her to ask such a question.

Had she ever thought about killing him?

Of course not, not from the beginning to the end.

But if she said so, would he believe her?

Ye Ning stared unwaveringly at this man, her throat somewhat dry, her heart also beat fiercely, like a drum, almost leaping out of her chest.

"If I say no! Would you believe me?"

"..."

Ou Mucen looked at her, and after a long while, he actually nodded: "If you say so, I will believe."

Ye Ning was stunned!

He said he would believe? A man who since childhood had trusted no one, who always relied on his own intuition, was now saying to someone who had repeatedly taken advantage of him, "he would believe it if only she said no"?

Suddenly, Ye Ning’s eyes reddened, and her chest began to heave in irregular rhythms, overwhelmed with emotion: "Fine, then I tell you, no!"

"..."

With those simple two words, she let them out!

As she let them go, she felt as if a heavy burden was lifted, and it felt like she was relieved. Days of oppression, guilt, and discomfort appeared to vanish in that moment.

She truly had never thought about killing him!

And she didn’t know that on the other side, the man questioning her also felt a loosening of all the tension in his body after she finally answered with "no".

Ji Chengzhi was right, some things are better asked face to face to get them clear.

Having obtained the answer he wanted, he lost any interest in staying, so he prepared to leave: "Where is Xiaobao?"

"Ah?"

"Bring him with you, I’ll wait for you outside!" He said just that, then turned and left without looking back.

The remaining people in the living room stared at his departing figure, stunned for a long time, unable to react.

What did that mean?

He was letting this girl from the house go back with him? What was their relationship? Wasn’t he here to casually celebrate Mrs. Qiao’s birthday?
