Mu Anan stared at Huo Xian’s frivolous expression, “If it weren’t for my injured right foot, 1 would have crippled you right now.”
Huo Xian immediately jumped back when he heard that.
Mu Anan walked in with her crutch.
Huo Xian closed the door and complained, “Previously, you told me your Seventh Master would handle the matter on the Internet, so I didn’t care. But what happened in the end? It delayed for so long, and you were attacked for so long. How did your Seventh Master do things…Mu Anan!”
Before Huo Xian could finish, Mu Anan swung her crutch at him.
Huo Xian jumped to the side, “Little fairy, you can’t be like this. What’s wrong with me saying that?”
“You’re not allowed to badmouth my Seventh Master!”
Huo Xian looked disgusted.
Mu Anan looked serious.
However, when she saw Huo Xian pulling his jacket impatiently, she suddenly laughed.
Huo Xian was a very interesting young master.
When he was indecent, he made people feel relaxed and playful.
“Huo Xian, who’s here?”
At the same time, Chen Hua’s voice came from the stairs.
Mu Anan turned around and saw Chen Hua walking down the stairs.
When she saw Mu Anan, Chen Hua stopped in her tracks, and her expression froze.
The two of them looked at each other across the living room, and the atmosphere clearly changed.
Chen Hua gradually felt a little helpless, but she did not know what to say. She just stood on the last step of the stairs.
Mu Anan looked calm instead.
She was still looking at Chen Hua but said to Huo Xian, “Huo Xian, do me a favor. Go to the supermarket and buy some hotpot ingredients and wine. We’ll have hotpot later.”
“Alright.” Huo Xian replied readily.
He took the car keys from the coffee table and left the villa without saying anything.
As the closing of the door sounded after Huo Xian left, only Mu Anan and Chen Hua were left in the small villa.
The atmosphere was already strange, and right then, it got even weirder.
Both of them were silent.
After about three to five minutes, Chen Hua, who was frozen, seemed to have just returned to her senses. She was a little at a loss, “Huo Xian…He came yesterday…mainly because of Jiang Capital’s fire, and he was worried about your situation.”
“I understand.”
Mu Anan replied calmly, then walked to the sofa and sat down.
Her foot was still injured.
Dr. Gu said that her foot would be very sensitive that day. After walking so much, Mu Anan felt that her right ankle was a little itchy, hot, and painful.
She sat down and rubbed her wound.
Chen Hua hesitated at the stairs for a while before she walked over and asked, “Anan, your foot…is it alright?”
“I’m fine.” Mu Anan replied. She retracted her hand from her ankle and leaned back on the sofa.
Chen Hua was still standing with her hands in front of her. Because she was nervous, she kept clenching them tightly. Her head was lowered, and her mouth opened and closed.
She did that several times, but she could not speak.
Mu Anan did not seem to have any intention of speaking. She just stared ahead without focus.
After a long time, Chen Hua finally said, “I’m sorry, An.”
She said it very softly.
It was so soft that one would miss those words if not paying attention.
Mu Anan, who was leaning on the sofa, suddenly laughed when she heard those words, “Sorry? Why? Because of betrayal?”
She raised her head and looked straight at Chen Hua.
Chen Hua could feel a lot of pressure. That was the first time she felt pressure from Mu Anan.
Back in the university, some classmates chatted with Chen Hua and asked Chen Hua if she felt pressured when she was with Mu Anan.
Chen Hua’s answer at that time was no.
Mu Anan had always given her the impression of a quiet and well-behaved top student. Her only flaw was she was short-tempered and sometimes had a bad temper.
As for pressure, she didn’t feel it before.
But right then, Chen Hua felt the pressure that her classmates from the university had mentioned.
It was very threatening.
It was only that day that Chen Hua realized that Mu Anan was the one who was truly high and mighty. She was proud and domineering. She only restrained herself because she treated her as a friend.
But she…
She had lost that gentle and obedient girl.
Chen Hua’s heart ached.
Mu Anan said, “If you apologize for betraying me, you don’t have to. 1 won’t accept it, and I will never forgive you.”
Chen Hua panicked, “I didn’t, I really didn’t betray you. I…”
“But you had been tempted, hadn’t you?” Mu Anan said.
That made Chen Hua completely silent.
Mu Anan didn’t dwell on that topic. She continued, “Chen Hua, I’m quite grateful to you. At least you didn’t do it.”
If Chen Hua really did it, Mu Anan would really feel that she was a failure.
Chen Hua wanted to speak, but Mu Anan interrupted her, “How much did Jiang Qin give your family?”
Chen Hua bit her lip, “One million.”
Mu Anan smiled, “She’s generous.”
“I can return it…”
“Why should you return?” Mu Anan retorted, “Aren’t you going overseas? Take the money and go overseas. You can live however you want.”
“Anan…”
Chen Hua didn’t know what to say at all. She had only exchanged a glance with Mu Anan and immediately looked away.
Mu Anan was too domineering and overbearing.
She didn’t dare to look at her.
However, Mu Anan said, “Chen Hua, you have to understand that there will be no more friendship between us.”
Tears instantly fell from Chen Hua’s eyes as soon as Mu Anan said that.
She looked at Mu Anan and felt as if she had lost something very, very precious. She wanted to hold onto it, but she could not.
Mu Anan said, “Do you know why 1 came here today?”
Chen Hua didn’t say anything and just cried.
“I’m here to bid a proper farewell to you.”
Chen Hua still did not respond and continued crying.
Mu Anan said, “After all, we’ve known each other and have been best friends for almost four years. It’s time to put an end to this relationship.”
“From now on, we’ll lead our own lives.”
They would part ways and lead their own lives.
That sentence was usually used for romantic relationships.
However, Mu Anan felt that it could also be applied to her and Chen Hua that day.
It was a rare fate for them to meet and be friends for so long.
Mu Anan still felt that it was better to bid proper farewell than to part ways without having a chance to say goodbye.
Chen Hua had already squatted on the ground as she cried.
At the same time, the sound of Huo Xian’s motorcycle could be heard from outside.
Mu Anan patted Chen Hua’s shoulder, “Don’t make a fool of yourself.”
Chen Hua wiped her tears away forcefully. When Huo Xian knocked on the door, she walked straight to the washroom on the first floor.
Mu Anan went to open the door for Huo Xian on her crutch.
Huo Xian bought many things and carried two bags to the kitchen.
Mu Anan was about to follow him to the kitchen, but Huo Xian chased her out, “You’re a patient, so you should go and rest. Where’s Little Fatty Chen? Let us do it.”
“I’m here!” Chen Hua replied.
It was obvious that she had washed her face. Although her eyes were very red, she still tried her best to smile as if nothing had happened. She said to Mu Anan, “Anan, you’re a patient. You should rest well.”
“Can this patient eat spicy food?” Huo Xian suddenly asked.
At the same time, Mu Anan’s phone rang.
It was a message from Seventh Master.
Mu Anan didn’t open it. But she smiled after seeing Seventh Master’s message on the homepage.
