Chapter 1456: Chapter 1623: They Say Women Are Made of Water...

Tao Zhixiang looked at Chu Mucheng’s face, a smile lingering at the corner of her mouth, but there was already a shimmer of tears in her eyes.

This man... it turns out, he still remembers!

All these years, the man deeply hidden in her heart, those buried memories that have turned to dust, are brought up at this moment. Yet, somehow... they have traversed time and space, becoming clear in her mind, filled with gentle emotion.

"It’s me!"

Tao Zhixiang spoke, though it was just two words, her throat tightened, and the sound that came out... was unexpectedly so dry.

Chu Mucheng’s heart thumped, as he focused on Tao Zhixiang, feeling a bit incredulous, yet somehow, everything seemed so reasonable.

Yes, he had always thought he hadn’t had any interaction with this woman, yet she was like this with him. That feeling was clearly one of love, wasn’t it?

He truly didn’t know what merit he had to make her love him like this!

But it turns out, he had long forgotten that chance encounter in the past, forgotten about the night he helped a girl.

The girl’s face, at this moment, merged with the one before him, Tao Zhixiang, becoming clear.

Chu Mucheng didn’t know how to describe what he felt now, aside from shock, there was a subtle joy and pride that slowly rose from his heart.

It turns out... it’s her!

Unbelievably... it’s her!

Unexpectedly... it’s her!

Chu Mucheng didn’t know what to say.

The two of them... were not strangers after all, they had interacted before, hadn’t they?

Tao Zhixiang gently touched that scar.

"Does it... still hurt?"

She smiled at him, but tears slid down from the corners of her eyes, her delicate face carrying a trace of solemnity, and was... filled with an excited emotion.

Chu Mucheng took a deep breath, raising the corner of his lips, and said lightly:

"Silly, it’s been so many years, it doesn’t hurt anymore!"

She really... said such things, making him feel awkward.

But, her tears... how could they be so abundant!

Chu Mucheng was somewhat helpless and reached out to help wipe her tears, but it was futile.

Her tears not only didn’t lessen, but... they grew even more.

Chu Mucheng sighed and said: "They say women are made of water; now I finally understand!"

He clearly wanted to cheer her up, Tao Zhixiang wanted to laugh but couldn’t, her tears surged even more.

"At that time, I was really... worried about you!"

Tao Zhixiang’s eyes reddened, tears glimmered in her eyes.

"Later, at school... I would see you. Every time... when I saw you... I would think of the scar on your arm. But... you didn’t... recognize me."

Tao Zhixiang’s voice was a bit choked, speaking intermittently, but her tone, um, falling upon Chu Mucheng’s ears, was filled with grievance and resentment.

Chu Mucheng’s lips curled up, looking at the little woman before him, not saying a word, just listening to her speak.

Not recognize her?

Indeed, he didn’t recognize her!

Chu Mucheng had to admit.

At that time, besides the many girls chasing him, even if Tao Zhixiang had appeared in front of him, he probably wouldn’t recognize her.

Of course, these words, ahem, it’s better not to say them.

Otherwise, she would cry even harder.
