Chapter 1477 - 1474: I Would Never Beg You!

Chapter 1477: Chapter 1474: I Would Never Beg You!

He spoke sharply, "What kind of thing are you, to insult me like this? Let me tell you, Li Yaxuan, even if I never find Zi Ruoxi, I will never come begging to you!"

After Qiao Muyun said this, he turned around, "Ka-cha~" as the door opened at that moment.

"I concede~" came a hurried voice from behind.

Qiao Muyun’s hand stopped. Gripping the ornate metal doorknob, he tightened his grip, not in a hurry to step out.

Li Yaxuan’s fair face was clouded with helplessness, a sense of loss swept over him, but he still forced a smile, calmly saying, "Are you that angry? Haha, I was joking with you. I promised you before that I would help you find Zi Ruoxi. Don’t worry, I won’t go back on my word."

Qiao Muyun turned his face back in bewilderment, looking at Li Yaxuan.

Meeting the other’s dark green eyes, Li Yaxuan’s heart moved, what is there to hold back? It has already been proven that he will not compromise due to threats, if so, that would not be the one he loves. He would completely lose him. Rather than this... it’s better to...

Finally.

Li Yaxuan smiled relievedly, that smile returned to simplicity, the greatest fulfillment... Li Yaxuan smiled at himself mockingly, when did he become so great too? He never knew he had also learned to let go.

Li Yaxuan walked a few steps closer, stopping within two steps.

"She’s performing at the gay bar, come on, let’s go find her." Li Yaxuan said lightly, smiled. But his face remained pale.

"...Ya Xuan..." Qiao Muyun didn’t know what to say. At this moment, what felt like thousands of thoughts were swirling; just now, he was furious because of his teasing, but now, he couldn’t muster any anger. He wasn’t even unexpectedly thrilled upon hearing news about Zi Ruoxi. Though he had some questions, why did she go to a gay bar?!

Thinking of this, Qiao Muyun was about to ask when Li Yaxuan suddenly rubbed his temple with one hand. Qiao Muyun noticed this detail.

"Ya Xuan, what’s wrong, are you feeling unwell?" Qiao Muyun asked, his tone now showing concern.

Li Yaxuan looked up at him and helplessly smiled.

"Thanks for your concern, I might have a headache, and also, I haven’t had dinner, so I’m a little hungry..." Li Yaxuan said slowly.

"Uh... I’m sorry, I was too impatient. Sorry, Ya Xuan, let me join you for dinner!" Qiao Muyun said guiltily, his handsome face showing a hint of embarrassment.

"Oh! Haha!" Li Yaxuan suddenly found it funny, why did he suddenly... then teased, "Qiao Muyun, I heard you say downstairs that you’d eaten out, Xiao Shan tried to persuade you but you blamed her for no reason, and now you can eat again! Your mood has improved!?"

With Li Yaxuan’s words, Qiao Muyun felt embarrassed, his expression a bit awkward.

"Uh... I wasn’t hungry just now, can’t I be hungry now!" Qiao Muyun retorted unkindly. Isn’t he hungry, what’s with the so much nonsense...

"Haha, sure, why not, come on, let’s eat!" Li Yaxuan suddenly felt much better, saying this and then throwing an arm around Qiao Muyun’s shoulder as he was about to walk out the door. But seeing the gloomy look in the other’s eyes, he immediately understood, and dryly laughed twice, then said, "Don’t worry, I won’t assault you! I’m starving. I’m not in the mood to think about that stuff, hahaha..."

"Damn, you still say!" Qiao Muyun grumbled, then lightly punched the other’s chest. But, his eyes were filled with a smile.

"Ah... It hurts, Qiao Muyun, you don’t know your own strength!" Li Yaxuan purposely exclaimed, happily interacting with the other.

Predictably, this earned him a glare.

The conversation went well, Qiao Muyun widened the door, and the two walked downstairs together with joyful expressions.

Xiao Shan was somewhat worried they might come to blows upstairs, but seeing them walk down the stairs side by side, amiable and pleasant, she couldn’t help but exclaim in wonder!

"Brother Qiao Muyun, Brother Ya Xuan, have you... have you reconciled again? Haha, that’s great." Xiao Shan said, her face blooming like a flower.

"What are you saying, Xiao Shan, don’t talk nonsense, what reconciliation..." Qiao Muyun growled, how come it sounds like words only meant for couples, how could it be used on him? Damn!

"Haha, Xiao Shan, don’t touch Brother Qiao Muyun’s sore spot, your Brother Qiao Muyun is very happy now!" Li Yaxuan replied with a laugh.

"Oh? Is there something to be happy about?" Xiao Shan asked, puzzled. Her dark eyes widened.

"Your Sister Zi Ruoxi is coming back, isn’t that a happy thing!" Li Yaxuan said naturally, by this point, he had completely let go of any resentment. Turns out, the feeling of letting go is so easy. Right... maybe he’ll never think of it again...

"Sister Zi Ruoxi is coming back, really?" Xiao Shan couldn’t hide her excitement.

At this moment, Qiao Muyun, who had been silent, was sporting a faint smile.

"Yes. Ya Xuan and I are planning to pick her up tomorrow night." Qiao Muyun said in a low tone.

As soon as he spoke, Li Yaxuan looked at him somewhat surprisingly. Didn’t he really want to see Zi Ruoxi, why wait until tomorrow. He couldn’t quite understand his intentions.

Qiao Muyun smiled understandingly at him.

"Didn’t you say you had a headache? Rest well today. Besides, look at me like this, haha..." Qiao Muyun said nothing further, just felt a little embarrassed. Now, Qiao Muyun realized long-standing neglect might make him look somewhat unsightly. Yes, he missed her very much, his thoughts unable to stop even for a moment... Precisely because of this, he wanted to stand before her in the most perfect way. He wouldn’t allow himself to be the least bit disheveled...

"Hmm... that works!" Li Yaxuan replied blankly. Naturally understanding his intention. On one hand grateful for his kindness, on another, though Li Yaxuan didn’t say it out loud, he thought Qiao Muyun’s decision was the right one. Better late than early for sadness. It hardly needs guessing, if he goes to that gay bar and sees her intimately with someone else, it’s a wonder he wouldn’t go crazy!

Oh... Qiao Muyun... at this point, it’s not something I can fulfill for you, pain is yet to come...

"Come on, let’s eat!" Xiao Shan shouted, pulling Li Yaxuan’s thoughts back to reality.

Seeing Qiao Muyun and Xiao Shan already gathered around the dining table, Li Yaxuan also temporarily shelved his worries and walked over to dine with them.

The first ray of dawn sunlight shot through the window.
