Chapter 56: My Wife Ran Away with Someone Else

    Lin Xi hesitated, if Zhao Yuming also harbored those kinds of feelings towards him, he really wouldn’t know how to choose.

    If he were truly redeemed by him, he would face Zhao Yuming’s entanglement. If he didn’t leave, staying with Mu Chuang all day seemed quite uncomfortable.

    While he was hesitating, someone eavesdropping outside couldn’t bear it any longer.

    With a “bang,” he kicked the door open. The dilapidated door panel finally breathed its last, instantly shattering into several pieces. Then, two large pairs of black boots stepped over the debris.

    His gaze traveled upwards to a face contorted with anger, appearing somewhat sinister in the dim light. Along with him came a gust of cold wind, causing his peacock-like robe to flutter wildly, along with a few strands of messy hair, perfectly embodying the entrance of an evil male god from a TV drama.

    The oil lamp was blown by the incoming wind, swaying back and forth, threatening to go out. The room flickered between light and darkness, creating a feeling of encountering a ghost coming to claim a life in the middle of the night.

    Lin Xi was directly stunned by this scene. He hadn’t expected Mu Chuang to be so terrifying in this attire. He couldn’t even tell if the one who had just entered was the original owner of the body or Mu Chuang himself.

    Because no matter which one it was, he felt very unfamiliar, completely unlike the person he usually saw.

    He stood up in a panic, and in the next second, Zhao Yuming blocked him from behind, separated by a tea table.

    “Why are you being so fierce?” Zhao Yuming sneered dismissively, “Anyone who didn’t know better would think you were possessed by an evil spirit, putting on a show of ghosts and gods, aren’t you afraid of scaring people?”

    As he said this, he turned his head to look at Lin Xi, seeing his frightened appearance, he was even more reluctant to let him take him away.

    Mu Chuang didn’t answer him, but directly reached out to push away the “obstacle” blocking Lin Xi, but Zhao Yuming directly confronted him.

    In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged several blows. Mu Chuang was a little overwhelmed… He only knew how to react instinctively, and didn’t know how to use the original owner’s martial arts at all.

    But fortunately, the original body had cultivated a body of steel and iron bones, and its ability to resist blows was super strong. Occasionally missing a move and taking a punch didn’t have much impact on him.

    Moreover, Zhao Yuming was injured, greatly weakening his own offensive power, so that their originally evenly matched martial arts were still evenly matched at this time.

    So for a time, the two fought inextricably, making Lin Xi, who was standing aside watching, tense up.

    The room was filled with the sound of furniture breaking, and soon only a bed remained intact, and a person unscathed –

    Lin Xi was forced into the corner, watched for a long time but couldn’t intervene, and no one listened when he shouted to stop.

    Then in the next second, with a “bang,” the only surviving bed finally breathed its last, breaking into pieces and collapsing on the ground.

    “Stop fighting,” Lin Xi tried his best to call out to stop from the side, but the two had already become bloodthirsty, how could they listen?

    Helpless, he had to extinguish the oil lamp hanging on the wall, and the sound of the two fighting came to an abrupt end.

    “Xi Xi…”

    “Xiao Yu…”

    The two seemed to have a tacit understanding, and both looked for the person at the first time.

    Lin Xi huddled in the corner, not saying a word. He had been frightened by the fighting just now, but now that the two were no longer fighting, he was in trouble instead, and still couldn’t decide who to choose in a panic.

    The room was pitch black, but he could feel the two approaching, but couldn’t tell who was who.

    Suddenly, a big hand grabbed him first, and then, taking advantage of the vision that had slowed down due to the sudden darkening of the light, he took him over the broken door panel and flew out.

    Lin Xi couldn’t determine who had taken him away, and didn’t dare to speak. He just let him take him up and down, as if jumping in the air. By the time he landed, his mind was still dizzy, and his stomach, which had been bumped, felt like vomiting.

    His legs were sore and weak, and he leaned on the person who had taken him away, taking a short rest, but still not saying a word. Light and shadows appeared in his blurry vision, but more of it was circles and stars spinning around.

    After a while, the circles stopped, and the stars disappeared. The scene in front of him gradually became clear…

    “This is…” He gradually recognized what place this was by the light of the rows of lanterns under the eaves, “…!”

    “The back office?” He silently muttered these two words in his heart, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

    It wasn’t because he wanted to choose Mu Chuang, but because he felt that being taken away by Mu Chuang wouldn’t have such serious consequences.

    “Are you rested?” A familiar male voice sounded above his head, as if with a hint of anger, “You ran away with another man in the time it takes to take a piss, I really underestimated you before.”

    Mu Chuang’s face was dark. Saying this was not only to find an excuse for his departure, but also to complain about Lin Xi running away with Zhao Yuming.

    Under normal circumstances, even if he wasn’t there at the time, Lin Xi shouldn’t have run away with Zhao Yuming, but he did it anyway, which was too bold for him.

    Lin Xi let go of the hand he had grabbed to steady himself, and tried to stand firm on his own.

    However, before he could say anything, he was pulled back by the other party again, still with an angry voice, “Want to go out? No way.”

    Mu Chuang took advantage of the current situation to reply to the conversation he had just heard between him and Zhao Yuming, “You have a good plan, but unfortunately, you can’t get out anymore.”

    When he said this, he was holding a ball of fire in his heart, feeling like his wife had run away with someone else, and he had been cuckolded.

    Hearing this, Lin Xi took a few seconds to recover from this shock. He didn’t expect Mu Chuang to actually do this.

    If he was the original owner, that would be fine, but he is now Mu Chuang, and he doesn’t like him, so why should he stop him from being redeemed by Zhao Yuming? And why cut off his freedom?

    “How hateful!” He cursed secretly in his heart, “Why didn’t I see this in you before?”

    “What do you want?” He raised his small face, which had not fully recovered, and asked, “Do you want to quietly kill me, or imprison me?”

    He said this with anger, making his small face, which was already pale from fright, even more bloodless.

    Mu Chuang stared at him, his eyes deep, his brain thinking of many ways to punish him in an instant, but in the end it was replaced by an evil smile.

    “Call me ‘Brother Chuang’ and I’ll spare you.” His words contained several meanings, let’s see if Lin Xi will take the bait.

    However, Lin Xi just remained silent. He wasn’t so stupid as to think that calling the other party would make him agree to be taken out by Zhao Yuming.

    He knew Mu Chuang too well. He often did things that led people to make mistakes, and he always liked to say a sentence with an unclear meaning to make people unknowingly reveal their flaws.

    “The young master’s brain is broken again, go see it earlier tomorrow.” Lin Xi ridiculed him helplessly, and then prepared to turn around and go back to the room.
