The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 202 House Arrest

Chapter 202 House Arrest

Mu Xiaoyu stared at the middle-aged man's departing figure until he completely disappeared from her sight before turning her gaze away.

She shook her head, trying to stop herself from thinking about it. There had been just too much going on lately, and she was afraid she was going a little crazy...

Mu Xiaoyu stopped thinking about the middle-aged man and turned to leave. But the moment she turned around and looked up, she met Li Chenxu's fierce gaze.

Mu Xiaoyu had no idea when Li Chenxu arrived.

"where do you want to go?"

At this moment, Li Chenxu exuded a strong sense of oppression, and his handsome face was filled with a chilling coldness.

Mu Xiaoyu was a little scared of Li Chenxu, but when she thought of what had happened at the hotel, her anger overshadowed her fear.

She bit her lip and looked stubbornly at Li Chenxu: "What does it have to do with you where I go, Li Chenxu? You shouldn't meddle in other people's business."

"I'm meddling? Mu Xiaoyu, don't forget who you are now!"

As Li Chenxu spoke, he reached out and grabbed Mu Xiaoyu's chin. Perhaps because he was too angry, the force in his hand was frightening. Coupled with his sinister tone, he looked extremely terrifying.

Mu Xiaoyu endured the pain in her chin. She lowered her eyes, avoiding looking into Li Chenxu's eyes, afraid that if she continued to look, she would burst into tears.

She didn't speak either, only responding to Li Chenxu with silence.

However, Li Chenxu was already furious, and Mu Xiaoyu's silence only fueled his anger. He stared at Mu Xiaoyu with a sinister look for a long time, then finally sneered and, amidst Mu Xiaoyu's curses, hoisted her up onto his shoulder.

He didn't say anything more, and after helping Mu Xiaoyu into the car, he said to the trembling driver in front, "Go home."

"I'm not going back!"

Mu Xiaoyu was furious at Li Chenxu's forceful actions, trembling with rage. But no matter what she said or did, no one listened to her. Her subordinates all knew very well who they needed to listen to.

Besides, Li Chenxu is in a bad mood right now, so who would dare to offend him at this time?

Upon hearing Li Chenxu's instructions, the driver immediately drove towards the villa. After getting into the car, Li Chenxu stopped talking. Unable to get a response from Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu turned her head to the side, refusing to look at him, and also fell silent.

For a moment, the carriage was completely silent; no one spoke, and the atmosphere became increasingly oppressive.

This continued until Mu Xiaoyu and the others got off the car; she was practically being dragged along by Li Chenxu. This action made it seem as if the two of them had returned to the time before they reconciled.

Mu Xiaoyu knew the two were arguing, but she was still a little stunned by Li Chenxu's sudden treatment of her.

She didn't come to her senses until Li Chenxu dragged her back home.

"Is this how you treat me?"

Whether it was from sadness, anger, or disappointment, Mu Xiaoyu spoke with an unprecedented calm.

Li Chenxu was taken aback by Mu Xiaoyu's appearance, but soon he narrowed his eyes dangerously.

He stared intently at Mu Xiaoyu, his voice almost menacing as he said, "Yes, that's how I treat you, so what? And it's not just what happened just now. From now on, you're staying at home and not going anywhere! You can only come out when Song Bai leaves!"

"You want to put me under house arrest?"

Mu Xiaoyu looked at Li Chenxu in disbelief, never expecting to hear such words from his mouth.

More importantly, what did Li Chenxu take her for? Could he just lock her up like that?

Mu Xiaoyu was trembling with anger, and her eyes were starting to redden slightly with rage.

She pointed a trembling finger at Li Chenxu and said in a voice that was almost breaking down in tears, "Li Chenxu, I used to think you cared about me. But now it seems I was completely wrong. I know you're angry, but won't you listen to my explanation? You've never trusted me, what's the point of this relationship?"

Mu Xiaoyu shouted out her words. Li Chenxu had been so good to her during this time, so much so that she couldn't accept the sudden change in his behavior. As she spoke, tears began to fall.

She felt hurt and angry, but even more so, she felt wronged.

She desperately wanted to ask Li Chenxu why he wouldn't listen to her explanation and why he treated her this way. And why was he acting like a victim now, criticizing her when he was the one who made the mistake?

But when she saw Li Chenxu's indifferent eyes, she couldn't say any of these words.

Mu Xiaoyu suddenly felt like laughing, laughing at her foolishness and cowardice.

So before Li Chenxu could speak, Mu Xiaoyu continued, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. If you want to shut it down, then shut it down, whatever you want... What about Song Bai..."

When Song Bai was mentioned, Mu Xiaoyu paused for a moment, then shook her head with a wry smile, said nothing more, and went upstairs.

Since things have already turned out this way, whether it's Li Chenxu or Song Bai, let them fight it out. She doesn't want to see either of them again...

That night, Li Chenxu didn't return to his bedroom to sleep. Mu Xiaoyu went to bed early, but her sleep was restless. Every time she closed her eyes, all she could see were Li Chenxu's cold eyes looking at her, Song Bai's words, and the scenes of her entanglement with Li Chenxu in college...

Various images kept intertwining in Mu Xiaoyu's mind, so much so that she opened her eyes before dawn the next morning.

There was no sign of Li Chenxu beside her, and the other side of the bed was cold. Li Chenxu hadn't come in all night.

That makes sense; someone with Li Chenxu's personality would never back down or admit defeat.

Mu Xiaoyu chuckled self-deprecatingly. She picked up her phone from the bedside table, intending to check the time, but immediately saw a text message from Bai Luo sent in the middle of the night.

"Sister Xiaoyu, are you free tomorrow? I have something I want to tell you."

Upon seeing the text message, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly remembered the phone call Bai Ye had made to her that day. However, she had been arguing with Li Chenxu too much these past two days, so she had completely forgotten about it.

Not knowing if something had happened to Bai Luo, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly felt a little guilty.

She quickly texted Bai Luo back and arranged to meet the next day.

Bai Luo always texts her, so she should be alright now, right?
