Chapter 1445: Isn’t Young Beefcake Tempting?

When something unusual happens, there must be something fishy!

She doesn’t believe Feng Huaimu suddenly became so kind-hearted.

Feng Huaimu looked up and saw Xu Haohao’s wary eyes, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned down. His fingers interlocked with each other, and his expression grew somewhat enigmatic.

After a few seconds of eye contact, Feng Huaimu suddenly stood up and walked toward the door, directly opening it, letting the cold wind blow in. The chilly night air bit into her.

Xu Haohao looked at the dark night outside, barely making out the lights of the village.

Really... really letting her go?

"You can go. Later, I’ll ask Aunt Zhou to take you to the village entrance, or you can have her take you to the police station if you want." Feng Huaimu answered indifferently, tidying up the dining table, looking like a domesticated househusband.

Xu Haohao’s mind was still in a state of dizziness. She didn’t understand at all... Feng Huaimu was actually letting her go? After so much scheming, he suddenly released her. Was there something wrong with his head before?

Xu Haohao was still suspicious: "Are you... are you messing with me?"

"No, I just suddenly want to let you go. Go ahead, I won’t stop you." He replied with a smile.

Xu Haohao couldn’t understand why this man’s change was so drastic, so she just sat dumbfounded in the chair, looking at the window, letting the cold wind sting her face.

A man’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.

Feng Huaimu had already taken the plates to the kitchen, and the sound of water trickling came from there, seemingly washing dishes.

That attitude, that demeanor, seemed like he really intended to let her go.

It was something that should have brought her joy, but why didn’t her heart feel happy? Could she have developed Stockholm syndrome?

Xu Haohao bit down hard. How could she have Stockholm syndrome? She was always one to hate evil, and this dog-man Feng Huaimu manipulated her feelings step by step, imprisoned her freedom, and even used her to threaten her best friend—utterly unforgivable! She shouldn’t forget all this just because he hadn’t hurt her so far.

Xu Haohao continuously comforted herself in her heart, there are so many men in this world, plenty of handsome and charming young men. She’s at least a little rich; what’s wrong with finding a pretty boy who truly likes her in the future?

Aren’t those pretty boys appealing?

Why hang herself on this dog-man Feng Huaimu? He has done so many excessive things!

He doesn’t deserve sympathy.

Moreover, he was just pretending all along, without any feelings for her. Ha, she wasn’t even worth as much as that broken beauty painting!

Xu Haohao’s mind was in a frantic struggle, and her sneer grew even thicker on her face.

This is an opportunity he’s giving, why not take it?

Xu Haohao stood up and walked outside; maybe she would be free from tonight.

She might as well treat everything from meeting Feng Huaimu as a terrifying nightmare.

Not long after she walked out, she saw a middle-aged woman rubbing her hands and feet under the fishing village’s lamplight in the distance. As expected, it was Aunt Zhou who came to deliver fish today.

"Miss Xu, let me take you out of the village, or take you to the police station."

Xu Haohao couldn’t help but glance back, then nodded.

He could hear the ear-piercing sound of chair legs moving outside the kitchen, as if he could hear the sound of departing footsteps.

The plate in his hand accidentally fell to the ground, making a sharp noise.

Feng Huaimu didn’t even wipe the dishwashing foam off his hands and instinctively rushed outside...
