Chapter 32 - Cinderella’s Glass…Hammer?! (2/2)

※

So according to the script, Mu Xiulun took her to the gate of her condominium. She got off the car, swung the door, held her head high and left proudly in big strides.

The paparazzi with the car were not hiding this time, holding their cameras snapping and flashing together to illuminate the otherwise silent night.

Su Jishi walk natural, unrestrained and agile, silver stars adorned long skirt dragged up behind her, she didn’t look back, did not stop, took every step with determination just like a heart-broken woman.

Mu Xiulun decided to put out the fire. He parked by the roadside, and watched her figure go further and further until it disappeared from the public eye.

He lit a cigarette but not smoke it. Instead, he just watched the flickering light devour the whole cigarette in his fingertips. It was not until he was sure that he was covered with the smell of “dejected” smoke that he pushed open the car door and stopped the paparazzi.

“Make an offer.” He took out the check folder, and the golden-tipped pen wrote a flying name on the piece of paper, “I don’t want anyone to know about this evening.”

Paparazzi looked at his hands and smiled greedily and ingratiatingly.

The paparazzi’s lips were always the most unreliable. Mu Xiulun was sure that tomorrow his adoptive mother will know the news that his captive canary has flown away.

After sending off the paparazzi, Mu Xiulun got in his car again.

He didn’t start the car soon, but looked at the empty passenger seat beside him, revealing a smile that he didn’t even notice.

Suddenly, his eyes froze by its corners—something shiny fell under the passenger seat.

It is like a glass shoe left by Cinderella. Even if the princess and the prince were separated temporarily, they would meet again through the glass shoe the woman left in hurry.

It’s just…

Mu Xiulun bent down and picked it up doubtfully.

Why does Niohoru Su Jin carry a hammer with her?
