Chapter 923 The sense of security is overwhelming
Cheng Yunchuan looked into his eyes, with a hint of tenderness that was barely noticeable in his eyes. "For me, it's not a piece of cake."
His voice was low, but it carried an inexplicable power that made Jiang Mubai's heart beat faster involuntarily.
There was silence between the two for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little ambiguous.
Just then, a black car stopped in front of them. The window slowly lowered, revealing a familiar face.
"Mu Bai, get in the car."
It’s Lu Jingchen.
Jiang Mubai looked at Lu Jingchen, then at Cheng Yunchuan, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Cheng Yunchuan's face darkened instantly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Who is he?" His voice was low, with a hint of suppressed anger.
There is a smell of gunpowder in the air, and a storm seems to be coming...
Jiang Mubai felt his heartbeat was about to jump out of his chest. The appearance of Lu Jingchen made the already delicate atmosphere even more complicated. He looked at Cheng Yunchuan for help, but found that the other's eyes were as cold as ice, staring at Lu Jingchen tightly, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
"Mu Bai, ignore him and get in the car." Lu Jingchen's voice carried a hint of unquestionable command, as if Cheng Yunchuan didn't exist at all.
Jiang Mubai bit his lip. He hated the feeling of being fought over like an object. He took a deep breath and said with courage, "Jingchen, I can go back by myself. You go first."
Lu Jingchen's expression changed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "Mu Bai, what are you talking about? It's so late, how can you go back alone?"
"I can take a taxi." Jiang Mubai insisted. He didn't want Cheng Yunchuan to misunderstand, and he didn't want to get involved in the fight between the two of them.
"Take a taxi? Do you know what time it is? It's so chaotic outside!" Lu Jingchen's voice rose a few degrees, with a hint of blame in his tone.
Jiang Mubai was a little impatient, "Lu Jingchen, I said I can go back by myself! Can you please leave me alone?"
Lu Jingchen's face completely darkened. He suddenly opened the car door, strode to Jiang Mubai, and grabbed his wrist. "Jiang Mubai, what do you want to do? Are you trying to piss me off on purpose?"
He was so strong that his grip hurt Jiang Mubai's wrist. Jiang Mubai struggled a few times but couldn't get free.
"Let me go!" Jiang Mubai roared, his voice sounded particularly sharp in the empty street.
Cheng Yunchuan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He stepped forward and pulled Lu Jingchen's hand away. "Lu Jingchen, what are you doing? Let him go!"
Lu Jingchen sneered, "Cheng Yunchuan, mind your own business! This is a matter between Mu Bai and me."
"Mu Bai's business is my business." Cheng Yunchuan hit back without showing any weakness, his eyes full of provocation.
"You..." Lu Jingchen was so angry that his face turned blue. He raised his fist and was about to hit Cheng Yunchuan.
Seeing this, Jiang Mubai quickly stood in front of Cheng Yunchuan and said, "Lu Jingchen, are you crazy? If you dare to hit him, I will never talk to you again!"
Lu Jingchen's fist stopped in mid-air. He looked at Jiang Mubai, his eyes full of pain and unwillingness. "Mubai, you want to break up with me for him?"
Jiang Mubai's heart sank suddenly. He didn't expect Lu Jingchen to say such a thing. He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. "Lu Jingchen, I don't want to quarrel with you. Go back first. I will explain to you tomorrow."
Lu Jingchen's eyes were red, he stared at Jiang Mubai, as if he wanted to carve him into his heart, "Okay, Jiang Mubai, this is what you said, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned around and got into the car without looking back. The black car drove away, leaving Jiang Mubai and Cheng Yunchuan standing there. The atmosphere was awkward and solemn.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at Jiang Mubai with a complicated expression, "Who... is he?"
Jiang Mubai sighed. He knew he had to explain clearly, "He is my... ex-boyfriend."
"Ex-boyfriend?" Cheng Yunchuan's voice rose slightly, and a barely perceptible joy flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Mubai nodded, but he didn't notice the change in Cheng Yunchuan's expression. He rubbed his wrist that was pinched by Lu Jingchen, feeling irritated. He never expected that so many things would happen tonight. First, there was an accident on the set, then Qin Yuanqing's entanglement, and now Lu Jingchen's appearance...
"Let's go. I'll take you home." Cheng Yunchuan's voice interrupted Jiang Mubai's thoughts.
Jiang Mubai raised his head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan with a hint of gratitude in his eyes, "Thank you, Mr. Cheng."
Cheng Yunchuan's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile, "Just call me Yunchuan."
His voice was low, but it carried an inexplicable magnetism that made Jiang Mubai's heart beat faster involuntarily.
The two walked side by side towards the parking lot. The street lights stretched their figures very long, like two intertwined curves, foreshadowing the story that was about to happen between them...
Suddenly, Jiang Mubai felt his feet slip, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground...
"Ah!" Jiang Mubai screamed, and was about to fall to the ground. At the critical moment, Cheng Yunchuan quickly grabbed his waist and held him firmly.
"Be careful." Cheng Yunchuan's voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of concern.
Jiang Mubai's heart was beating fast. He raised his head and met Cheng Yunchuan's deep eyes. His cheeks flushed involuntarily. The light from the street lamp shone on Cheng Yunchuan's face, outlining his angular features and making him look even more charming.
"Thank you..." Jiang Mubai's voice trembled a little. He felt as if an electric current was running through his body, making him numb and tingling.
Cheng Yunchuan's hands were still tightly around Jiang Mubai's waist. His eyes stayed on Jiang Mubai's face for a few seconds, then slowly moved down to Jiang Mubai's slightly opened lips.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous, and the air around them seemed to freeze. Jiang Mubai felt his breathing becoming more and more rapid, his mind was blank, and he could only feel the warmth and faint cologne scent coming from Cheng Yunchuan.
"Your foot..." Cheng Yunchuan's voice was a little hoarse. He suddenly loosened his arms around Jiang Mubai's waist, squatted down, and checked on Jiang Mubai's condition.
Jiang Mubai finally reacted. He looked down and found that the heel of his high heels was broken.
"Damn it!" Jiang Mubai cursed in a low voice. He was so unlucky today.
Cheng Yunchuan raised his head and looked at Jiang Mubai, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Looks like I have to carry you back."
Before Jiang Mubai could react, Cheng Yunchuan had already picked him up and carried him sideways, walking towards his car.
Jiang Mubai exclaimed and subconsciously hugged Cheng Yunchuan's neck. Cheng Yunchuan's chest was very broad and warm, making Jiang Mubai feel extremely safe.
