Chapter 687: Extra 100 I Won't Touch You Anymore (Grand Finale Third Update)
My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early
Xin Zaozao didnât expect Mu Cidian to be back already.
She even thought that he might not come back at all.
She was holding Wanwan when she saw him unpreparedly.
Mu Cidian, hearing the noise, turned his head too.
Both of them stared at each other.
Xin Zaozao averted her gaze.
She walked past the sofa, towards the nursery.
Slowly, she exited again.
When she came out, she was pushing a baby carriage. She placed Wanwan in it, and then returned to her room.
Just after entering the room.
Mu Cidian suddenly blocked her.
Xin Zaozao frowned.
Mu Cidian said, âThe stroller is too small, Wanwan is not comfortable sleeping in it.â
âI know, Iâll take her out in a bit,â Xin Zaozao said.
Mu Cidian looked at her.
âI will put her in the bed in a moment.â After saying this, Xin Zaozao closed the room door.
Mu Cidian stood at the door.
It was abundantly clear to him that Xin Zaozao was repelling him.
Xin Zaozao had said before, after this incident, regardless of how Wanwan was, it would be better for them to break up.
As always, she was a woman of her word.
He stood by the door.
He just stood there.
He didnât know what he could do, he didnât even know what he should do next!
He just stood there rooted to the spot.
In a daze, he heard the sound of Wanwan crying.
A pang went through his heart.
Carefully listening, it was indeed Wanwanâs cry.
In that moment, without a second thought, he went and opened the room door.
The door wasnât locked, he went straight in and heard the cry coming from the bathroom.
Mu Cidian strode into the bathroom.
In the bathroom, Xin Zaozao was taking a quick shower.
Wanwan was alone in the stroller, placed within Xin Zaozaoâs sight and reach in the bathroom.
At that moment, because of Wanwanâs sudden crying, Xin Zaozao was quite anxious. She quickly washed the foam off herself.
Mu Cidian glanced at Xin Zaozao, and she also saw him.
The next second, Mu Cidian went straight towards Wanwan, picked her up, and started to walk out.
âMu Cidian!â Xin Zaozao called out to stop him.
Mu Cidian paused for a moment.
âYou stay here, Iâll be done soon.â She spoke quickly and anxiously.
Mu Cidian was silent for a few seconds, and the next second, he just walked out.
âMu Cidianâ¦â
Mu Cidian had already left the bathroom, and also closed the bathroom door behind him.
Xin Zaozaoâs whole person panicked at once, without caring about the foam on her body, she grabbed the towel next to her and rushed out after him.
As she rushed out, Mu Cidian holding Wanwan was walking towards the door.
âMu Cidian!â Xin Zaozao grabbed his arm, âGive Wanwan back to me!â
âCalm down.â Mu Cidian told her.
âGive her back to me!â
âI told you to calm down!â Mu Cidianâs voice was loud. His sudden outburst stunned Xin Zaozao.
At this moment, Wanwan, who had been noisy all this time, suddenly fell silent when she heard her fatherâs loud voice. She just quietly looked at the person holding her, without crying or making a fuss.
âCanât you let someone else watch Wanwan for the short time it takes to take a shower?â
âNo!â Xin Zaozao answered him decisively, âFrom now on, I will not let Wanwan out of my sight for a second, absolutely not!â
âLei Qian is already dead!â
âBut youâre not dead!â Xin Zaozao said to Mu Cidian harshly.
Mu Cidian staring at her, numbly listening to her hurtful words, he said, âAre you just waiting for me to die too?â
âIn this lifetime, all you have brought me is disaster! If you donât die, then I will die, I will certainly die!â Xin Zaozaoâs voice was hoarse, she was truly devastated.
Her eyes were red and tears were falling.
Mu Cidian just kept looking at her, just kept looking.
In this lifetime, what exactly had he done to make Xin Zaozao feel that his presence was a threat that could destroy her!
He suddenly chuckled.
A cold, indifferent smile.
He said, âAnyway, no matter how much I love you now, you canât forget how I hurt you.â
âYes!â Xin Zaozao agreed decisively, âI will never forget in this life, I will never forget all the hurt you caused me, and I will never forget the harm done to me by people around you. If you werenât there, if you werenât in this world, I wouldnât have suffered so much, I wouldnât have faced so many things that drove me insane! I really wish you were dead, that youâd fall into the sea and die with Lei Qian! Never, ever appear in my world again, never show upâ¦ugh!â
Mu Cidian suddenly held the back of Xin Zaozaoâs head and kissed her fiercely on the lips.
Xin Zaozao was taken aback.
The next second she pushed him away with all her strength.
She wiped her lips, âDonât touch meâ¦ugh!â
Mu Cidian seemed not to hear, the next second he kissed her again.
At that moment, he pushed her hard against a wall, one hand holding Wanwan, the other held her tightly in place.
Xin Zaozao resisted.
But she was afraid of hurting Wanwan, so she didnât dare to push him away recklessly.
She felt Mu Cidianâs lips and tongue intruding and ravishing her mouth.
âMu Cidianâ¦let me goâ¦ugh, let me goâ¦â Xin Zaozao kept trying to evade.
At this moment, letting go of her hands, her robe fell on the ground.
Mu Cidianâs hand went straight to her bodyâ¦
âNoâ¦donât touch meâ¦â Xin Zaozao pushed him.
Her body kept squirming against the wall.
She didnât like it.
She didnât like Mu Cidianâs behaviour.
Her tears kept falling.
Mu Cidian seemed oblivious of her pain, her grief, her resistance, just kept tightly kissing herâ¦
Ifâ¦
If Wanwan hadnât started to cry, Mu Cidian might have, might have continued.
Wanwanâs cry was like an alarm bell, suddenly returning Mu Cidian to his senses.
His body stiffened.
At that moment, he just looked into Xin Zaozaoâs hateful eyes, her reddened lips and her pale cheeks.
The door was abruptly pushed open.
The nanny came rushing in upon hearing Wanwanâs crying, not expecting the sight that greeted herâ¦
She hastily turned around, âIâm sorry, I didnât know. I heard Wanwan crying. Please continueâ¦â
With that, she made to leave.
She was indeed thoroughly embarrassed.
She had never envisaged that a couple, who had never lived together, could suddenly engage in such an act.
She was about to make a swift exit whenâ¦
Mu Cidian suddenly called out to her, âTake Wanwan away.â
âNo way!â Xin Zaozao rushed to grab Mu Cidianâs clothes.
Mu Cidian exerted force, pushing Xin Zaozao out.
Xin Zaozao collided heavily with the wall, making an unusual sound.
The nanny was terrified by the scene unfolding.
Mu Cidian, seemingly unconcerned, handed Wanwan to her, âSheâs hungry, go warm up some milk for her.â
âI can breastfeed her,â Xin Zaozao retorted loudly.
The nanny was voiceless and alarmed.
âGet out!â Mu Cidian shouted sternly.
The nanny was terrified.
She had never seen Mu Cidian lose his temper; she didnât expect him to be so brutal when he was angry.
She hurriedly carried Wanwan out.
Xin Zaozao rushed to the door, trying to take Wanwan back from the nanny.
Mu Cidian abruptly closed the door, standing forcefully against it.
No matter how hard Xin Zaozao tried, she couldnât open the door.
The nanny outside was also startled by the banging door.
She nervously assured, âMadam, you rest assured that I will take good care of Wanwan. If you and your husband have any issues, talk it out. Couples quarrel often, but they make up at the end. Give him a chance.â
Having said this, the nanny quickly went to warm up the milk for Wanwan.
In the room, Xin Zaozao tried with all her might but couldnât open the door. No matter how much she pushed, Mu Cidian stood firm, immovable like a mountain.
âMu Cidian, what are you trying to do, what are you⦠Ah!â Out of the blue, Mu Cidian lifted Xin Zaozao up, and tossed her onto the bed.
Xin Zaozao looked up at Mu Cidian, towering over her.
âWhat do you want to do!â Xin Zaozao questioned him angrily.
âWhen you were with Song Lifei, werenât you very into it?â scoffed Mu Cidian.
A sudden pain gripped Xin Zaozaoâs heart.
She didnât expect Mu Cidian to bring that up.
At that time, she thought he understood.
Moreover, they did not even go all the way, she stopped before anything had happened, and Mu Cidian was confronting Lei Qian.
âIf another woman so much as touches a strand of my hair, I fear your resentment,â said Mu Cidian, followed by bitter self-mockery laughter.
His laughter, full of darkness and gloom.
âMu Cidian, I would rather be with another man, I donât want to be with you, I donât want to!â Xin Zaozao cried out frustratedly.
Mu Cidian gave no response.
He took off his coat.
Xin Zaozao fearfully watched as he moved closer.
Her gaze fixed on him, watching every facet of Mu Cidianâs ruthlessness.
The moment he was near her, her emotions utterly came crashing down as she said, âMu Cidian, I really hate you. I really hate youâ¦â
Her tears flowed endlessly.
It seemed as though sheâs shed all the tears of her life during this period of time.
Why must she and Mu Cidian torture each other like this?
Why must they continue this way?
She bit her lips.
She knew she couldnât resist; how could she possibly resist Mu Cidianâs assertiveness with her strength?
She prepared herself for the inevitable in desperation.
In despair, she allowed Mu Cidian to lay on her, holding her tightly in his arms.
She thought to herself, withstand it and it will pass, withstand it and it will pass.
However, all she perceived was Mu Cidian holding her, holding her tightly, and not doing anything else.
Xin Zaozao had no clothes on, but his hands were just crossing on her arms, making no further moves.
She was gazing at Mu Cidian who was looking back at her too.
There were lying on the same pillow.
They were so close that they could feel each otherâs breath, and yet there was no intimate contact between them.
She heard Mu Cidian say, âI wonât touch you.â
Xin Zaozao stared at him.
âI wonât touch you ever again.â
Xin Zaozao felt inexplicably poignant; her eyes turned red abruptly.
A sudden, immense pain gripped her heart, as if it had been hammered sturdily, and waves of pain washed over her.
She watched as Mu Cidian suddenly let her go.
She watched as he suddenly got up and left her bed.
Xin Zaozao had no idea what Mu Cidian was planning. She felt as though the Mu Cidian a second before and the one at this moment were not the same person.
Just a second ago, he was overwhelmingly brutal, but now, he was suddenly calm and composed.
He handed Xin Zaozao a set of pajamas, âPut this on. I will bring Wanwan in.â
He then walked out.
Xin Zaozao clung onto the pajamas Mu Cidian had left on the bed.
She stared at Mu Cidianâs tall and lonely silhouette, wondering why her heart pained so much, so excruciatingly!
Mu Cidian brought Wanwan back in.
Wanwan had finished her milk and was still creating a fuss, unable to sleep despite the nannyâs attempts to calm her.
During a moment of uncertainty, Mu Cidian appeared, and directly took Wanwan from the nanny.
The nanny observed Mu Cidianâs demeanor.
She didnât know why, but it seemed as though he was suppressing a great deal of pain in his heart. It made her feel inexplicably sorry for him. How come madam didnât feel a trace of his pain?
Why couldnât she give her husband even a hint of warmth?!
Mu Cidian carried Wanwan into Xin Zaozaoâs room.
By this time, Xin Zaozao had already dressed.
Mu Cidian said, âIâll put her to sleep.â
âI can nurse her to sleepâ¦â
âI will put her to sleep here,â Mu Cidian asserted firmly.
He allowed Wanwan to stay within Xin Zaozaoâs sight to the greatest extent.
Xin Zaozao bit her lip.
She sat on the edge of the bed, watching Mu Cidian. Watching him hold Wanwan, gently, very gently, lulling her to sleepâ¦
