Chapter 1441: A Different Way of Life 2

Xu Tai let out a cold sneer, his voice sinister.

“Engagement? Don’t forget, you once stood at the engagement ceremony with Bai Chenyao, and what happened then?”

A shadow crossed Mu Haiyun’s beautiful eyes, and a hint of shame and displeasure flashed across her exquisite face.

Grabbing Xu Tai’s hand, she leaned closer to him.

“Tai, you still don’t trust me?”

“After we see Tian Tian, we’ll go back to the Mu Family’s old house. I’ll personally talk to Grandfather and ask him to agree to our marriage.”

“No need for an engagement, let’s go straight to the wedding!”

Xu Tai held Mu Haiyun’s hand with even more strength.

Mu Haiyun felt some pain but still endured it, just like every time in bed, when Xu Tai would wear her out, but she still tried to match his pace.

Even if sometimes it was as brutal as a storm, she always grit her teeth and endured for Xu Tai’s satisfaction.

If it weren’t for Xu Tai being extremely satisfied in bed, their relationship would likely still be quite stiff.

And that stiffness, for her, was a deadly threat.

Knowing she couldn’t win against Xu Tai in matters between men and women, she chose to comply.

And she couldn’t deny, many times, it was quite pleasing for her too.

Xu Tai’s attitude toward her changed from initial loathing to occasional tender affection.

Any change brings hope, and Mu Haiyun has plenty of patience.

Moreover, objectively speaking, Xu Tai was indeed not bad. Ever since he entered the Kangyun Group at her behest, he actually helped her a lot.

To make Xu Tai completely believe in her, she even handed over almost all her power to him.

And Xu Tai’s attitude towards her definitely got much gentler.

Whether Xu Tai’s feelings were true or fake, she knew her intentions very well.

Xu Tai was just a tool she had to accept, and bit by bit, she had to control and utilize it.

After giving herself to Xu Tai and then making headlines with a suicide attempt, she’d come to terms with it.

There’s nothing insurmountable in this world. If you wish to gain, you must be willing to lose.

As they say, you have to give something to get something!

Once, she valued her virginity too much, thinking that she would leave her first time for her true love despite being abroad for many years.

And what happened?

Bai Chenyao didn’t care at all, didn’t even bother to give her a glance.

Suppressing the deep hatred she harbored for Bai Chenyao, Mu Haiyun’s voice was very gentle, and her expression was soft and graceful.

“Let’s go quickly, after seeing Tian Tian, we’ll go talk to grandparents and parents about our marriage. I’ve checked, the 25th of next month is a very auspicious day, why don’t we set it for that day!”

A flash of surprise crossed Xu Tai’s eyes.

He seemed not to expect Mu Haiyun to be serious, and indeed, the 25th of next month was an auspicious day for marriage.

The reason he noted that day was because it was the day Kangyun Group was holding a board meeting.

Glancing at Mu Haiyun, who was smiling gently, her eyes full of his reflection, Xu Tai felt a sense of satisfaction.

This woman… no matter how much she loved someone before, once her body belonged to someone else and they spent enough time together, even if she didn’t like him at first, emotions could slowly develop.

Getting married…

A hint of a cold smile flashed in Xu Tai’s eyes, which he quickly concealed when Mu Haiyun looked his way, showing a gentle smile that bore a seven or eight-tenths resemblance to Bai Chenyao.

“Alright, whatever you say!”
