CHAPTER 305: CHAPTER 305: THIS IS MY PROMISE TO YOU

Xu Yisen always felt that Xia Weifu’s return to G City wouldn’t be so simple. He worried that Xia Weifu would make a move against Qin Muni, so he had to have someone secretly watch Xia Weifu’s every move.

Xia Yuge’s novel, just released for a day, was suddenly taken off the shelves at major bookstores.

Qin Muni’s restaurant was broken into in the early hours of the morning, and it was smashed beyond recognition.

These two news stories quickly went viral on Weibo, becoming hot topics.

Many netizens jokingly wondered if these two events were ways for the two of them to retaliate against each other.

Some netizens also remarked that it was a brilliant drama with updates coming so quickly that it was hard to keep up with the pace.

Qin Muni stayed in the restaurant until noon before leaving, and by then, a number of reporters and some passersby who saw the news had gathered at the restaurant’s entrance.

Xu Yisen parked his car at the restaurant’s entrance. She put on her glasses and quickly dodged the reporters to get into the car.

"Want to go home?"

"Yes."

Qin Muni nodded, lazily leaning back in her seat, glancing at the rapidly passing scenery outside the window. However, a trace of doubt arose in her heart.

Who hated her so much to want to smash her store.

The only person she could think of was Xia Yuge.

But how could the other party break into the restaurant’s security system, pausing all the cameras and alarms without leaving any trace?

Could it be the mysterious person who had been texting her for three years?

The car arrived at the underground parking lot of Fanluo Residence, and Qin Muni got out of the car, preoccupied.

Xu Yisen noticed the heaviness on her face and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Qin Muni glanced at Xu Yisen and quickly looked away, nodding, "Yes, I’m fine."

"Do you have something on your mind?"

Moments after Xu Yisen finished speaking, Qin Muni slowly looked up at him, with a hint of barely perceptible inquiry in her eyes.

She lifted the corner of her lips and half-jokingly said, "Yes, I’m wondering who hates me enough to smash the restaurant."

Xu Yisen reached out and affectionately patted Qin Muni’s head, softly replying, "Don’t worry about these things, I’ll find out for you."

Qin Muni knew that Xu Yisen saw that she was suspecting Xia Yuge. Maybe he himself had the same suspicion?

The elevator arrived, and Qin Muni was the first to step inside. After pressing the button for the fifteenth floor, she stood next to Xu Yisen.

"What I’m worried about is if the result of the investigation is what we think, that you would favor her."

Her gaze was solely on the elevator door in front, which reflected Xu Yisen’s tall figure and the fleeting surprise on his face when he heard her words.

"No."

He shook his head, denying Qin Muni’s guess.

The simple two words, yet carried an undeniable firmness.

He would not favor Xia Yuge, nor would he deceive Qin Muni for Xia Yuge.

Xu Yisen reached out, gently turning Qin Muni’s body to have her face him.

"Munni, from now on, no matter what happens, I will do everything to protect you. That’s my promise to you."

His deep, ink-like eyes swirled with an unshakable resolve that made one feel reassured.

Qin Muni knew that Xu Yisen always meant what he said, so at that moment, she believed his promise to her without hesitation.

The thoughts of men and women often don’t align, and one big reason could be that women are mostly emotional beings.

Just like Xu Yisen, who indeed had a fondness for Xia Yuge in his youth, but due to Bai Wan Yun’s opposition, he and Xia Yuge maintained only a friendship, nothing more.
