Chapter 867: Just A Dream

Mu Sihan lifted his well-defined fingers, buttoning his hand-made buttons one by one.

Hearing Nan Zhi’s words, his smirk widened even more. “It’s been four years, and you’ve learnt to seduce men now.”

Nan Zhi’s lashes fluttered. “What do you mean?”

“Didn’t you ask Feng Yao to be softer last night too?” His black eyes were filled with derision, though she didn’t know if he was scoffing at her or berating himself that he couldn’t stop himself.

A sharp pain appeared in Nan Zhi’s chest.

Many times, when couples broke up, the trust they had for each other would be destroyed at the same time.

Of course, she couldn’t hope for them to have any trust for each other again.

“No explanations?”

Nan Zhi met his deep dark eyes. “You’re mistaken. I injured my elbow and Feng Yao help me to apply some medicine.”

Mu Sihan’s handsome face seemed to tense even more. “Your boyfriend is really considerate.”

Nan Zhi was speechless as well.

“He wouldn’t mind our one night stand?”

Nan Zhi looked down, spotting the condom in the rubbish bin from the corner of her eyes.

Her heart fell painfully.

When he touched her in the past, he didn’t like to have any obstruction... Of course, at that time, he got the palace’s doctor to prescribe her a harmless contraceptive medicine.

However, that time before they separated, the Qiao family got into trouble and she forgot to take the contraceptive, which was how she had fallen pregnant with the twins.

Did he use a condom because he thought she was dirty?

Nan Zhi did not wish to overthink, though she didn’t need to think too much as well. A one night stand was extremely normal between grown adults.

“I won’t tell him. I believe you won’t tell Miss Helian as well.”

When he heard what she said, Mu Sihan’s expression darkened even more. They stared at each other, neither of them speaking. The surging emotions they had last night were all gone as well.

All that was left was a stiff coldness, lingering in the atmosphere.

After Mu Sihan buttoned his last button, leaving the top two opened to expose his exquisite and sexy collarbones, as he put a hand in his pocket. He stared at her with dark eyes. “Wait for me here tonight.”

“I’ll be leaving after finishing all the preparations for tonight’s banquet.”

She no longer had that passion and courage from last night. Now she had regained her quiet elegance and rationality.

He wanted to catch an abnormal emotion in her bright eyes, but there was nothing.

The hand in his pocket clenched slightly.

“I still can’t make you stay, can I?” His sexy lips moved.

Nan Zhi closed her eyes, not daring to look at him as she looked out of the window instead. “The Qiao family’s taint is still there. Besides...”

He smiled coldly. “Besides what? Do you think that I only want you?”

Nan Zhi met his cold eyes, her heart clenching in pain. “I’ve always known that you wouldn’t lack women around you.”

He looked at her, scoffing, “But there aren’t many who dare to give themselves to me.”

Nan Zhi tightened her hold on the blanket.

A bitterness grew in her. They were once so close and intimate with each other, but now that they were awake, they could only talk so sharply to each other.

It seemed that was all that was left between them.

She looked down, suppressing her surging emotions as she said to him, “Feng Yao is coming to fetch me later. You should leave first!”

It was rare for Mu Sihan’s expression to not darken. He sat not too far from the edge of the bed, staring at her coldly for a few seconds. He remained silent as he moved to open the door and walked out.

When he left, the air around him felt like a freezing cold torrent.

It was so cold Nan Zhi felt her bones hurting from the coldness. Nan Zhi wrapped herself in the blanket, reminding herself to not be sad and not be miserable.

They were no longer people in the same world.

She should stop dreaming!

What was the use in continuing to cling to him and pester him? Was there any point in telling him that she still had feelings for him? It would only result in the two of them to be in the same situation as when they were forced to separate.

It was too late.

She no longer had the energy to love without a care for anything else.

She would just treat last night as a beautiful dream. After the dream was over, she should return to reality!

...

Not too long after Mu Sihan left, Feng Yao arrived.

By then, Nan Zhi had gotten up, changed and thrown away the rubbish. The windows were wide open to remove the lingering smell of what happened the previous night.

Feng Yao could not see any discomfort from her face.

“Does your elbow still hurt?” Feng Yao asked.

“A little, but I can still finish what I’m supposed to do today.”

Feng Yao patted her head. “If you’re not happy the next time, I can bring you to rant and shout at the beach, so don’t drink anymore. You probably don’t know how attractive you are when you’re drunk. It’s a good thing I managed to hold myself back. If not, last night, you...”

But she had indeed slept with someone last night. However, she was the one who took the initiative, so she wasn’t at a loss.

However...

The two of them had met after so long. Apart from their physical interaction, they didn’t even ask each other if they were well.

It was not that there wasn’t any time to ask, but that they didn’t dare to ask.

She was afraid of hearing him say that he was very well, but also afraid that he was not well.

She knew that he was angry and sad when she insisted on leaving back then.

She knew well about how much he needed her.

When she left, his heart would become empty again. Did his psychological condition worsen after that?

However, she did not dare ask all of this.

Because she knew she couldn’t give him any promises.

...

Nan Zhi returned to the castle with Feng Yao.

She busied herself in the kitchen all day so she wouldn’t have to think about him.

But when she was resting, she heard the castle maids praising the newly-appointed S Country King, saying that he was very handsome and very charming, and that he was probably the youngest King in the world!

After finishing her work for the banquet, Nan Zhi returned to the hotel to tidy her luggage.

She didn’t stay.

...

After Mu Sihan was done with all of his work, it was nearly eleven at night when he returned to the hotel.

He walked to the adjacent room.

The service staff was cleaning the room after a couple checked-out on the very same night.

Mu Sihan stood in front of the door and glanced into the room.

Everything that happened last night was like a flowery dream.

“Eh, why is there a ring stuck in the carpet?”

Hearing the service staff’s words, Mu Sihan took a large step forward.

He snatched the ring from the service staff.

Two letters, Z and H were carved on the inside of the ring, with a heart symbol in between.

Back then, he didn’t even propose to her, putting the ring on her finger directly.

“Sir, is this ring yours?”

Mu Sihan clenched the ring tightly, humming wordlessly.

“But, I remember, apart from that couple earlier, the one who checked out is a beautiful lady!”

Mu Sihan glanced at the service staff coldly. “If she comes back for the ring, tell her to call me. My number...” Mu Sihan paused for a second before continuing, “Hasn’t changed.”

The service staff wanted to say some more, but the man had already turned around to leave.

...

Mu Sihan returned to his room, showering before he lay on the bed.

He stared at the ring in his hands for a very long time.

It was like the countless nights after she left, his eyes remained open until daybreak.

However, his phone by the pillow never rang.
