Chapter 418: Chapter 419: She is Not a Woman

Xia Yangyang cried her heart out.

Softly murmuring, “Mom, I’m sorry, I’m sorry….”

After lying down for a while, Xia Yangyang fell asleep.

The next day was Chinese New Year.

Wen Xiaochu came early to find Xia Yangyang, wanting to take her out.

Xia Yangyang wasn’t in the mood.

But she was dragged to the amusement park by Wen Xiaochu.

Mu Liancheng insisted on going with them.

Xia Yangyang was now a public figure.

Her appearance in public always drew countless gazes.

Fortunately today the amusement park was hosting a “Mask Fiesta”.

Upon entering the park, every visitor was given a mask as a small gift by the staff.

Many people put the masks on straight away.

Wearing the mask, no one recognized Xia Yangyang.

Wen Xiaochu brought Xia Yangyang to the amusement park because she was afraid that she would sit at home and brood.

Going out might help divert her thoughts and lift her mood which might eventually resolve her inner conflicts.

Wen Xiaochu’s favorite place was always the amusement park from the time she was little.

Whenever she’s down, she would come here alone.

She would go on every ride, and by the time she left, most of her troubles had been blown away.

Xia Yangyang didn’t dare to ride the roller coasters and other thrilling rides.

However, Wen Xiaochu greatly enjoyed them.

After one roller coaster ride, Mu Liancheng came down shaky and weak.

Wen Xiaochu teased him for being a weakling.

Wen Xiaochu wanted to ride the drop tower but Xia Yangyang and Mu Liancheng refused to accompany her.

So, she went alone.

Mu Liancheng bought two corns and handed one to Xia Yangyang.

He took a bite of his corn and staring in Wen Xiaochu’s direction said to Xia Yangyang,” She’s not like a woman is she?”

Xia Yangyang laughed, “Xiao Chu has always been like this. She prefers exciting things.”

Mu Liancheng agreed, “She’s not normal. Have you ever seen a woman who isn’t afraid of rats, who could grab it, snap its neck with her bare hands and dissect it into a skeleton? That’s really scary.”

“So terrifying, yet you still like her?” Xia Yangyang teased.

Mu Liancheng didn’t deny it. “Helplessly, my family is very traditional. An arranged marriage from when we were kids; not like you and Young Master Gu who fell in love freely.”

As soon as Gu Qichen was mentioned, Xia Yangyang’s expression darkened.

Mu Liancheng had intentionally prodded.

Since the topic was broached, he dared asked, “No one will vouch for Young Master Gu’s character more than me. His sincere feelings for you are often the subject of jest among us brothers. We oftentimes make fun of how the once cold and authoritarian Young Master Gu is now whipped by his wife. But in truth, we envy him for finding a woman he loves so deeply. Little sister-in-law, no matter what happened between you two, there’s one thing you must remember. Young Master Gu’s feelings for you are not fake.”

Xia Yangyang spoke softly, “I know.”

“So why the conflict? It’s gotten so big! Why not discuss things nicely?”

“Mu Liancheng, what if one day you found out that the person Xiao Chu loves the most hurt the person you love the most, would you still be with her?”

After speaking, Xia Yangyang turned around and walked away.

Mu Liancheng stayed in the same place, thinking on what she said.

The person Xiao Chu loved the most was himself, and the person he loved the most was Xiao Chu.

So the ending would be he, Mu Liancheng, hurting Xiao Chu. What kind of absurd tale was that?

Before he knew it, Xia Yangyang had vanished from sight.

Mu Liancheng hurried to look for her..
