Stealing the moonlight into my arms

Chapter 163 Has He Bullied You?

Fu Runing stood leaning against the dressing table in her bedroom.

I watched with interest as my ex-husband calmly searched for his phone in the room.

His expression seemed calm, and his cold face showed no emotion at all.

Except for being a little embarrassed at the beginning, he is now very calm and composed.

Fu Runing saw him look under the pillow but couldn't find the phone.

I searched in the quilt, but still couldn't find it.

Finally he went to look in the bedside table, but when he opened the drawer, he saw a box of opened condoms placed in the most conspicuous position.

His rummaging stopped, and a look of awkwardness appeared on his face. After a few seconds of stunned silence, he pretended to be calm and closed the drawer.

He seemed to be recalling where he had dropped his phone.

But Xiao Jingting helplessly discovered that his memory was still stuck at the end of yesterday's shareholders' meeting, when he drank a few glasses of wine with the shareholders, and he had no memory of what happened after that.

Maybe the second personality of 'him' really wanted to see Fu Runing, so he couldn't wait that short time.

Xiao Jingting searched for his phone for a long time but couldn't find it. He looked up at Fu Runing and apologized calmly: "Sorry, please wait a moment."

Fu Runing looked towards the bathroom.

"You can also look in the bathroom."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingting went straight to the bathroom.

About five minutes later, he came out of the bathroom empty-handed again.

Fu Runing was not surprised by this result.

After all, what she was playing with in her hands behind her back was Xiao Jingting's mobile phone.

When Xiao Jingting came out of the bathroom, he saw Fu Runing holding a mobile phone in her hand, turning it around on the table.

When their eyes met, she did not avoid his gaze, but looked straight into his eyes.

That playful look seemed to tell him that she did it on purpose.

Fu Runing was just teasing him on purpose.

Xiao Jingting's handsome face showed embarrassment. He just said, "That cell phone in your hand seems to be my cell phone."

Fu Runing pretended to take a look.

Then he pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, so this is your phone. I thought it was mine. Since it's yours, I'll give it back to you."

Fu Runing handed him the phone generously, as if it were a gift.

Xiao Jingting took it and was speechless for a long time.

He seemed to be thinking about how much money he should transfer to her to offset his out-of-control behavior last night.

He was silent for a moment and said, "I'll get someone to call you back. It will be quicker."

"Oh." Fu Runing responded perfunctorily, and didn't seem very interested in taking the money.

Afterwards, Fu Runing watched him turn around and hurried to the bathroom to change clothes.

Only then did Xiao Jingting realize that the clothes he had taken off yesterday were placed in the dirty clothes basket, while the clean clothes were neatly placed aside.

As he buttoned his shirt, he couldn't help but wonder, do Fu Runing and 'him' really get along so well?

After a while, Xiao Jingting finally finished his nagging and came out of the bathroom.

Fu Runing didn't want to play tricks on him anymore, so she said bluntly, "My family is planning a barbecue today, and we're preparing the ingredients now. You can leave through the back door."

Xiao Jingting felt that this behavior was not good, and it was not frank or generous.

What a secretive thing to do.

But for a moment he didn't know what reason to use to face the Fu family.

So he nodded and agreed.

Fu Runing knew that this idiot couldn't say anything else. No wonder Xiaoting was annoyed with him, and now she was annoyed too.

Pretentious and prudish.

The lower man.

A few minutes later, two figures appeared at the back door of the Fu family's villa.

It can't be said to be sneaky, but it is definitely not very generous or decent.

Any respectable person would have to go through the back door and pass through the narrow cobblestone path between the two villas.

Feng Yan's house was next door. Su Qing was watering flowers in the garden. When she saw Fu Runing and Xiao Jingting appear there, she was stunned.

"Ningning..."

Fu Runing also saw Su Qing, and she quickly greeted her with a smile: "Aunt Su Qing, good morning."

Su Qing put down the watering can, walked to the iron fence, and looked at the two of them in surprise. "Why are you walking this way?"

Fu Runing remained calm and said, "The weather is getting hotter. We have a lot of trees in our yard, so we have to start mosquito control early. Otherwise, if it gets hotter, there will be mosquitoes everywhere. I'll have to ask my brother to do the hard work."

It's really easy to tell lies.

Su Qing glanced at Xiao Jingting beside her, her gaze lingered on him for a while, but she didn't dare to stay for too long, and then she looked away again.

"So that's how it is. I don't care about what happens here. It's all A Yan's fault."

Fu Runing also knew that now was not the time for small talk. She smiled and said, "Then let's go first. Aunt Su Qing, we're having barbecue at home today. Do you want to join in the fun? Or I can bring some to your house later."

Su Qing also smiled gently, "Is it okay, today A Yan..."

"Aren't you in a hurry for something?" Xiao Jingting interrupted the two of them rudely.

Fu Runing looked at him speechlessly without refutation. She could only turn around, say goodbye to Su Qing, and leave quickly.

She didn't want to say anything, she just let Xiao Jingting go by himself.

But the man said that he had not used the back door for a long time and did not know how to take the hidden path to the front yard. If he was seen by his family, he would have a hard time explaining himself.

So he insisted on taking her with him.

This winding cobblestone path was really narrow and was covered tightly by the shade of trees. At this time, the morning sunlight shone through the shade of the trees, and the shapes between the leaves fell on the clothes of the two people, making the shadows of the trees mottled.

Fu Runing glanced at the cold and handsome face of the man beside her, but did not expose him.

Xiao Jingting has always been a top student. With such a good memory, how could he forget how to get to this road?

Turn left at the end of the tree-lined path and you will reach the Fu family's courtyard.

Fu Runing asked casually, "Why do you always look weird every time you see Aunt Su Qing? Don't you like her?"

Xiao Jingting frowned slightly, he was also a little confused.

He originally thought that he managed his facial expressions well and didn't show it, but he didn't expect that Fu Runing would still see it.

"I don't know either. I just subconsciously don't like her very much."

He suppressed the emotion in his eyes and continued, "But it could also be that I don't like Feng Yan, so I don't like his stepmother either. It's normal."

Fu Runing calmly asked, "Why don't you like Feng Yan?"

Xiao Jingting looked at her without dodging his gaze. He said calmly, "He was thinking about you even before we divorced."

Fu Runing pretended not to understand, "Really? How could I not see that? Brother Feng Yan is such a good person."

Xiao Jingting looked at her seriously, and his tone became serious, "Feng Yan really can't do it."

Fu Runing didn't argue with him about why he was still meddling in his ex-wife's affairs, but just looked at him thoughtfully.

She asked, “Why not?”

"No, he's not a gentleman."

Fu Runing didn't bother to pay attention to him. "Your reaction is purely personal emotion, there is no objective reason."

Xiao Jingting himself felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched and obviously contained some strong personal emotions.

He wanted to say that the wood carving was not a gift from Feng Yan at all, but Feng Yan claimed it all. For this reason alone, he was not a gentleman.

But he couldn't give any reason for that.

After all, he denied it when he had an argument with Fu Runing about those wood carvings.

At that time he said to Fu Runing -

"How could I possibly give it to you? Why are you being so sentimental?"

The words he had spoken before had just boomeranged back, preventing him from speaking a second time.

Xiao Jingting's car was still parked in the old location.

Fu Runing brought the person here and was about to turn around and leave.

Unexpectedly, the man grabbed her wrist at this moment.

Fu Runing looked up at him and thought that it was impossible for him to have an attack in broad daylight without any inducement.

"what?"

She looked into the man's eyes, which were calm and deep. This look was not Xiaoting's.

Xiao Jingting seemed a little hesitant, and felt that those words were difficult to say, but he still asked -

"Did he bully you?"

"Who?" Fu Runing didn't understand what he was saying for a moment.

"...Xiaoting." Xiao Jingting uttered these two words reluctantly.

Fu Runing thought to herself that it was a good thing that she had enough self-control, otherwise she would definitely not be able to hold on at this moment.

She came closer to the man and pretended not to understand what he meant.

"What is bullying? Please be more specific."

She blinked and looked at him with confusion and ignorance.

Xiao Jingting's throat rolled slightly. He looked at the woman who stood in front of him. The early spring sunshine fell on her face, making her amber eyes bright and charming, yet so clear and pure.

Fu Runing seems to have always been like this.

I didn't treat him as the opposite sex.

This was how she treated Fu Zheng before, and she is still this way towards him, now her ex-husband.

Xiao Jingting's jaw tightened slightly.

"Have you ever done that?"

Seeing that he had been holding it in for a long time and finally uttered such a sentence, Fu Runing pursed his lips and did not give a direct answer.

"Then think about it yourself. Didn't you feel anything after you did it? Didn't you feel refreshed, but also very tired?"

After saying this, she gave the man a meaningful look, turned around and left gracefully.

Xiao Jingting watched her slim figure disappear from his sight. He stood there stiffly, his mind full of what she had just said.

He did oversleep today.

And even now I still feel sleepy.

It was hard for him not to think of something else.

Just how far must he go to feel this exhausted today...

……

On the other hand, Fu Runing's steps back home were much lighter.

She thought that Xiao Jingting probably couldn't figure out why he overslept and was so tired today.

Why? Four melatonin pills.

Normally, she only needs to take one pill to fall asleep soundly.

Last night, to make sure he fell asleep, she forced him to eat four pills.

About half an hour later, Fu Runing received a transfer information notification on her mobile phone.

It showed that 10 million was transferred into her bank card.

Fu Runing didn't know what expression to put on when facing this transfer information.

One million before going to bed, ten million after going to bed.

You say he is stupid, but he is quite logical.

When I praised him for being smart, he was quite speechless.
