Remember Self-Control: Bossy Husband Loves Me Deep to Soul

Chapter 80: Caught in the Act



Mu Zhishen’s words sent a twinge of guilt through Si Wan. The man was so anxious to meet her, but she came to seek the truth for another person.

Across the table, Mu Zhishen ordered her favorite food with ease as well as laid out the cutlery and roses for her.

For a moment, Si Wan knew not how to open up.

“Si Wan, did anyone bully you, was it Gong Siming?”

Judging from his anxious tone, Si Wan instantly felt the man couldn’t be like what Yue had described.

“I’ll go and see him!”

Mu Zhishen got up in a huff but was involuntarily stopped by Si Wan.

“No, it has nothing to do with Gong Siming.”

She tactfully persuaded Mu Zhishen to sit back. In utter confusion, Si Wan failed to notice the unwonted imprudence of the man.

Her mind was filled with Mu Zhishen’s kindness to her. Biting her lips, Si Wan decided to talk it over.

“Senior Mu, do you know my sister?”

He had anticipated the purpose of Si Wan’s trip.

“Didn’t you introduce her to me today?”

He looked natural and sounded unhurried. No signs of lying could be detected.

“Before this?”

Mu Zhishen tittered.

“Without your introduction, I didn’t even know you have a sister.”

Mu Zhishen complained as if he was unsatisfied with Si Wan for keeping the secret.

“You should know that I’m the only child of my family. Sister Yue is a newly sworn sister of mine, but I take her as my closest family member.”

Her tone was affirmative and sincere.

“Congratulations to you for getting such a good sister then!”

He was unperturbed and nothing like what Yue had described.

“Thank you, Mu Zhishen, I mean it. Thank you for your kindness the whole time.”

Si Wan felt unfair for his suffering and said gratefully.

“I’m sorry, but my sister has a major misunderstanding with you, and it’s hard to untie the knot in her heart. So, I am sorry. We should keep a distance in the future.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It was just a couple of days, but that woman had weighed so much on Si Wan’s mind. He had been silently accompanying her for a dozen years, and she cut off their relations so easily.

Even Gong Siming couldn’t force her to make such a decision. For the sake of that woman, she was going to sever their ties and steer clear of him.

His fists under the table were clenched, and the veins popped from his wrists. His face, however, showed no hatred but pain and sorrow.

“Si Wan, please don’t be so cruel to me. I can go and explain to her in person.”

The guilty woman instantly felt unpardonable about herself.

“Senior Mu, why did you go to adopt a child? And the kid happened to be the son of my sister?”

Keeping his head low, Mu Zhishen smirked. Sure enough, he was waiting for the question.

His look couldn’t be seen, and he didn’t speak. Si Wan knew not how to proceed.

“I didn’t want to mention it.” Mu Zhishen choked with sobs.

“Si Wan, I don’t want any woman other than you. My father is forcing me to get married, and I don’t have a choice, but I can’t.”

Men only wept when they were deeply grieved.

At the sight of the tearful man, Si Wan lost her bearings and felt cruel about herself.

“I told him that I had a three-year-old son, and he insisted on seeing him. At my wit’s end, I had to find a suitable kid at a foreign welfare house. Just like you, that child has clear eyes.”

Since his point was made clear, he didn’t say more.

Like a guilty sinner facing the victim, Si Wan felt too ashamed and kept her head low.

He did everything because of her.

“Wan, the two-year deadline is drawing near. As long as I could survive the pressure from my father and you get divorced, I’m willing to forsake everything and go to any place with you.”

His tone was very sincere and touching. However badly she hurt him, but he had been treating her well as always.

Now she was no different from Gong Siming. Birds of a feather indeed flocked together.

In this case, she couldn’t hurt Mu Zhishen anymore and should put an end to their ambiguous relationship.

For whichever party, severing all connections might be the best approach.

“Senior Mu, as I said, whether it is for Gong Siming or Si Yue, we shouldn’t have any connection anymore. Besides, Gong Siming and I haven’t planned to get divorced.”

She got up to take her departure, but Mu Zhishen hugged her tightly from behind. Si Wan struggled but couldn’t free herself without using brutal force.

“Wan, don’t do this to me, please, we can still be friends.”

As he sniffed the unique fragrance from Si Wan’s body, wickedness grew wildly in his heart.

He knew Si Wan was still a virgin, which was why he had been so patient the whole time.

Coercion would spoil the fun.

Si Wan was surprised by Mu Zhishen’s physiological reaction. Never had she expected the man to be like this.

“What are you doing!”

As a low and angry voice came over, the air seemed to be frozen immediately.

She looked back and saw Gong Siming’s furious face as if he was going to devour her.

According to Yue, Si Wan drove out alone, and he was worried about her safety. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got here, he saw them hugging.

Like a furious leopard, he attacked the man behind her with his agile and overbearing strength. Out of instinct, Si Wan blocked the punch for Mu Zhishen.

“Si Wan, you attacked me for this man!”

Gong Siming was so unreasonable, but it was just her self-defense.

Besides, she knew Mu Zhishen wasn’t good at martial arts. Punched by Gong Siming, he would definitely be confined to bed for months. She blocked the attack to return the favor and feel less guilt for Mu Zhishen.

“Gong Siming, since you don’t love Wan, why don’t you let her go? You have so many women yet constrain Wan. Don’t you think that’s too much?”

Mu Zhishen was so good at fanning the flame!

“I didn’t realise you two were on first-name terms! Mu Zhishen, don’t you forget she is my wife and the junior mistress of Gong’s Family!”

His roar almost startled pedestrians outside.

While he was approaching Mu Zhishen, Si Wan stepped up to protect the man.

“This is a misunderstanding!”

“Misunderstanding? I saw it with my own eyes, yet you say I misunderstood. Si Wan, do you think I am a fool?”

His anger uncontainable, Gong Siming roared.

“Senior, you should go. This is between him and me, I don’t want you to get involved!”

While speaking, she pushed Mu Zhishen to walk

“Wan.”

“Senior, please leave!”

Si Wan pushed Mu Zhishen out and closed the restaurant door.

She was trying to explain, but Gong Siming became angrier.

Mu Zhishen was banging the door from outside. When Si Wan saw that, a flicker of helplessness flashed across her eyes.

Gong Siming mistook it as concern.

Regardless of her struggle, he picked Si Wan up and whizzed past Mu Zhishen.
