Chapter 12: I'm Not Your Pet in Captivity
Xia Tian's face changed.
Mu Jinchen's father died when he was very young, and his mother ...... It's hard to put into words. Over the years, he has relied on his grandfather as the most important faith in his life.
Xia Tian looked at Mu Jinchen's tense face, smiled bitterly, turned his head, and looked out the window. The tide was still there, the sun shining on the sparkling waves, the light shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows, shining in her eyes.
Since fate has made her and Mu Jinchen intersect again, there are some things and some people who have to face them.
"I'll have someone pick it up right away, I'm going back." Mu Jinchen commanded.
"Okay, I'll go call."
Wait a minute......!
Call?
Xia was stunned and looked at Mu Jinchen. Didn't he just say that there is no signal on the island, and communication is all by fax?
Mu Jinchen turned his head away and didn't look at her.
"You lied to me?!" Xia Tian felt unbelievable.
Mu Jinchen's eyes wandered away and said, "Tilt, you rest for a while, I'll go down and take a look." ”
"Don't go!"
Xia leaned over and got out of bed and took his hand, "Look into my eyes, is there really no signal on the island?" ”
From junior high school to college, from first acquaintance to separation, Mu Jinchen never told her a lie. No matter what happens, as long as she asks, even if Mu Jinchen is unwilling to answer, she will tell her honestly.
Once, she was busy with the activities of the student union and did not review well, obviously she failed the exam, but the final result was A+, she honestly went to the teacher to check, and the teacher categorically said that she had no problem in the exam. She thought about it impossible, caught Mu Jinchen and asked him if he had done anything, Mu Jinchen even held her a glare and confessed.
He asked his grandfather to use the relationship to dredge up the relationship with the school board and donate a brand new swimming pool so that everyone would hide it from her, just because he didn't want to see her depressed because of her grades.
But he told her honestly. He said he would never lie to her.
And now?
He had learned to deceive her.
Mu Jinchen's silence made Xia Tian's heart feel like a needle prick.
"Why?" She asked.
He turned his head and met her eyes, "Tilt, I've let it go for five years, and now, nothing can stop me from owning you completely." ”
Xia tilted back a step.
What he called possession is to make her completely cut off all contact with the outside world and be a canary in a cage?
"Ah Chen, you have changed."
His illness became even more terrible.
Mu Jinchen watched her retreat, and his eyes sank. "Dumping ......"
"Don't touch me!"
Xia Tian waved his hand away, his eyes full of vigilance, "I have my life, Ah Chen, you can't stop me from contacting anyone, I need to work, I need normal socialization, I'm not your captive pet, you can't retaliate against me like this." ”
Her defensive eyes stabbed Mu Jinchen, and Mu Jinchen's eyes gradually condensed with anger, and at this time, the old housekeeper came back.
"Young master, the helicopter will come and pick us up soon. There's no big deal on the old man's side for the time being, don't worry too much. ”
When Xia Tian heard that the helicopter was coming, he walked out regardless of his bare feet, "I'll go back with you." ”
"I don't agree." Mu Jinchen pursed his lips.
"Do you want me to stay on the island alone?"
Mu Jinchen avoided her gaze and said indifferently: "There are reserve ingredients on the island, and I will come back to accompany you soon." ”
"Mu Jinchen!" Summer leans into a high pitch.
"Tilt," his tone was light, staring out the window at the ocean, his voice ethereal, "don't force me to do anything that hurts you." ”
A chill rose from the soles of Xia Tilt's feet.
