Chapter 48 Okay, I forgive you
Mu Xiaoyu saw Li Chenxu's actions. She was never a fragile person, nor was she easily saddened, but seeing Li Chenxu's actions just now, her nose suddenly felt a little sore.
Even though she was the one who did something wrong, and even though she was angry right now, Li Chenxu still subconsciously thought of her.
She's really such a jerk!
Mu Xiaoyu didn't want things to continue like this. She took a few steps to Li Chenxu and squatted down in front of him, looking up at him with her small face and saying, "Chenxu, just now... just now I misunderstood you. Can you forgive me?"
This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu had taken the initiative to apologize. In the past, when she was with Li Chenxu, she never lowered her stance, which led to every argument between them ending in tragedy.
Now that she has been given a second chance at life, and understands how good Li Chenxu was to her, and understands her own feelings for Li Chenxu, Mu Xiaoyu doesn't want to let the two of them drift further apart again because of so-called face.
Li Chenxu remained silent, his dark eyes fixed on Mu Xiaoyu, as if observing the subtle expressions on her face, or perhaps contemplating whether or not to forgive her.
Mu Xiaoyu was already nervous, and now that Li Chenxu was scrutinizing her like this, her heart was in her throat, fearing that Li Chenxu would say something like he wouldn't forgive her.
For a moment, both of them were extremely quiet, neither of them spoke, and the room was so quiet that even their breathing could be clearly heard.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but just when Mu Xiaoyu thought that Li Chenxu would not forgive her, Li Chenxu suddenly spoke.
"Xiaoyu, I know that even now you still doubt my feelings for you. I've always thought it's okay, after all, time will tell. But there's one thing I need you to know now."
Li Chenxu spoke in a deep voice, his gaze fixed intently on Li Yitong, his eyes filled with an unprecedented seriousness. He paused for a moment, looking at Mu Xiaoyu, as if waiting for her answer.
Although she didn't know what Li Chenxu wanted to say, Mu Xiaoyu nodded and whispered, "Go ahead... I'll listen carefully."
After she spoke, Li Chenxu continued, "I'm not exactly a good person, you could even call me a bad one. I'll retaliate many times over for those who hurt me or those I care about. Especially those who hurt you, no matter who they are, I won't let them get away with it. But that's all. I'll protect you and be your strong support, but I won't interfere with anything you want to do."
"Xiaoyu, you would never understand how I've felt all these years. You probably still don't know what I like. But I know exactly what you like, even the little things you do when you're feeling guilty or happy."
At this point, Li Chenxu looked at Mu Xiaoyu and laughed self-deprecatingly, it was unclear whether he was laughing at his own infatuation over the years or at his current explanation: "So do you understand? I won't use my privileges to interfere with your work. I know how hard you've worked for your dream."
This was the first time Mu Xiaoyu had heard Li Chenxu speak so much. Her heart felt as if it had been suddenly filled with something, filled with an indescribable sense of satisfaction and joy.
Looking at Li Chenxu's self-deprecating smile, for some reason, Mu Xiaoyu suddenly felt like crying.
It seems... Li Chenxu really likes her. They've been married for so many years, and it seems like Li Chenxu truly has feelings for her...
If that's really the case, then almost every war she initiated over the years has probably been a torment for Li Chenxu.
She simply couldn't imagine how heartbroken she would be if it were her.
Li Chenxu has a strong and domineering personality, sometimes even bordering on egotistical. However, it's undeniable that he genuinely cares for her.
If someone likes or loves another person, these feelings are impossible to hide.
Just like Li Chenxu now, such a proud and domineering person, he actually said these things in front of her.
Mu Xiaoyu dared not think any further, dared not imagine how heartbroken and sad Li Chenxu must have been. She reached out and hugged Li Chenxu tightly, burying her face in his chest, and choked out, "Chenxu, I really know I was wrong. This will never happen again. This time, please forgive me, okay? It really won't..."
In fact, Li Chenxu couldn't bear to see Mu Xiaoyu cry. He felt heartbroken every time he saw Mu Xiaoyu shed a single tear.
Moreover, he knew very well that the old Mu Xiaoyu would never have done something like this, let alone apologize like this, almost to the point of tears.
Li Chenxu already knew that Mu Xiaoyu had changed a lot compared to before, but at this moment he truly realized that Mu Xiaoyu had completely changed.
The girl he had liked for so many years had matured and become more responsible. She also understood his goodness better and would no longer talk about divorce like before. Instead, she would show him with her actions that she was also trying to cherish him...
Li Chenxu didn't speak, but reached out and hugged Mu Xiaoyu, kissing her. A slight smile finally appeared on his indifferent face, carrying a hint of relief he had never shown before: "Okay, I forgive you. But... this is the last time."
"I promise! There will absolutely be no next time!"
Li Chenxu's forgiveness instantly revived Mu Xiaoyu. Despite their previous conflict, they had reconciled, and Mu Xiaoyu felt that her feelings for Li Chenxu had grown stronger.
She couldn't help but look up at Li Chenxu, and seeing his sharply defined profile, she felt an even stronger liking for him.
Finally, unable to resist, she cupped Li Chenxu's face and kissed him, whispering, "We'll be okay from now on... I'll love you even more, I'll understand even more how good you are to me, and I won't let you down again..."
The next morning, Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu went out together. After making up with Li Chenxu the night before, Mu Xiaoyu contacted the magazine's president and arranged a meeting to discuss the comic in detail.
She had never met the magazine's president before, and she never expected that she would be publishing her own comic book so soon, and might even hold a book signing event. Just thinking about this made Mu Xiaoyu very excited.
So from the time she left home in the morning until now, sitting in the car for so long, Mu Xiaoyu hasn't stopped moving around at all. She's constantly shifting her position, just like a child with ADHD.
Li Chenxu, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore and hugged Mu Xiaoyu tightly, saying helplessly, "Xiaoyu, calm down. You're so excited before you've even seen the person. What will you do when you get to the magazine office?"
