For several consecutive days, Gu Xiaozhan was always out early and back late.
Mu Anhan rarely saw him. Although she was busy with her own tasks, she felt like he was deliberately avoiding her.
Over the weekend, Xue Xiangtong invited her to go shopping.
Mu Anhan showed little interest, appearing listless, without any energy.
"What’s going on?" Xue Xiangtong teased her, "Is Mr. Gu ignoring you?"
Mu Anhan stared at her, but couldn’t utter a single word for a while.
Isn’t this him neglecting her? He’s so busy with work and is almost indifferent to her.
"Did I hit the nail on the head?" Xue Xiangtong was shocked, "I was just joking."
Mu Anhan sipped her milk tea, "Tong Tong, have you ever heard of karma?"
"Could it be that you ignored him before, and now it’s his turn to ignore you? This is what they call the wheel of fortune turning," Xue Xiangtong understood what she meant.
Mu Anhan nodded, "Right!"
"No wonder you look so spiritless." Xue Xiangtong pinched her face, "And you look dry, like a deserted woman."
"Really?" Mu Anhan immediately pulled out a mirror to look at herself. Was she really that miserable?
Xue Xiangtong leaned in close and whispered, "Are you guys lacking in physical intimacy?"
"We do!" Mu Anhan fell silent after saying this, the last time was when she went to pick him up outside the President Mansion, but he never came in.
"You’re lying to me, aren’t you?" Xue Xiangtong scoffed, "You used to look so radiant and full of life, glowing all over. Back then was totally different from now."
Mu Anhan reached out to poke her head, "Stop worrying!"
"You’re not in a good state!" Xue Xiangtong frowned, "My mom always says if you want to know if a man treats a woman well, just look at her face, no need for fancy skincare products. Her smile says it all. Just look at you, your smile is so fake. Is Mr. Gu seeing someone else outside?"
"Impossible!" Mu Anhan wouldn’t believe it even if she was beaten to death.
"Probably just too busy with work!" Xue Xiangtong patted her shoulder, "Men, if they’re too capable, they’re too busy to take care of a woman, if they’re not capable, they just revolve around a woman all day. Let me tell you, my dad is the latter."
Mu Anhan was amused by her, "But look at you three, you have such a great bond! Ordinary people have ordinary joys!"
"That’s right!" Xue Xiangtong quickly said proudly, "Although my dad isn’t really capable, he loves the family and my mom."
After she said this, seeing Mu Anhan become more silent, she immediately said, "Han Han, I’m not trying to brag in front of you..."
"Alright, I know you," Mu Anhan laughed, "I love Mr. Xue and Mrs. Xue too, they’re the most loving couple in the world, not only is Tong Tong their happiest daughter, I’m their happiest friend too."
Truth be told, the Xue Family treats her even better than her own family.
How could Mu Anhan think Xue Xiangtong was bragging?
"And you? How are things going with the young master of the Qin Family?" That’s also a concern of Mu Anhan.
The Xue family parents treat her so well, she can’t bear to see Xue Xiangtong have an unhappy married life, but she hasn’t caught any evidence of Qin Ye Peng’s misbehavior, and can’t act without it.
Just like last time, she suspected the incident in Ice City was done by Qin Ye Peng and Pei Wei, but lacked evidence to support it.
Xue Xiangtong suddenly seemed downcast, "Since returning from Ice City, we haven’t met or even exchanged messages."
