Chapter 187: Caress Her Head (2/2)

The desire was even stronger than his passion for computer technology.

While in a delightful haze of desire, soon Mubai returned to his home. However, the moment he stepped through the door, there was Chu Tianxin.

”Mubai…” Tianxin appealed to him with her puffy red eyes.

His mother also said gently, ”Son, you're finally home. Tianxin has been waiting for you since morning. You had no idea, but she has been crying for the whole day.”

”Mubai, are you serious about breaking off the engagement with me?” Tianxin started crying her sad tears again. ”Please don't be so cruel towards me! I know I've done some terrible things and I really regret all of them. So, no matter what you want me to do, I will be willing to do it to redeem myself.”

”Mubai, the thing that happened so many years ago really had nothing to do with Tianxin. Don't blame her, if you want to blame someone, blame me,” Old Mrs. Xi said apologetically.

Mubai was normally an easy-going person, and was generous to the people around him.

He would normally agree to their demands unconditionally with a shrug.

Therefore, Tianxin and Old Mrs. Xi thought as long as they put up an apologetic face, Mubai would soften his heart and forgive them.

However, they didn't know that Mubai's easy-going appearance came from his indifference. The moment he set his sights on something though, there would be no budging.

”So, you're here to ask for redemption?” Mubai stared at Tianxin with an overcast face.

Tianxin nodded like a puppy that got her treat. ”Yes! No matter what you have me do, I'll gladly do it as long as you're willing to forgive me.”

”Accept that the engagement is over without a fuss, and I'm willing to put any other offense behind us.”

Tianxin's eyes widened. ”You still want to break up the engagement? But no, I don't want to leave you Mubai…”

”You have no right to say no.” Mubai interrupted her plea roughly and Tianxin's face blanched.

”Also, you're not welcome here anymore.” Mubai dropped another bomb before heading upstairs without another look at her.

Tianxin spiraled into despair.

Mubai had snuffed out all the hope in her heart. It was over. There was really no turning back now…
