Mu Zixi gritted her teeth as she placed a trembling hand on the first button of her jacket. Her vision gradually turned blurry, but for the first time, she suddenly felt that her tears were unnecessary and couldn't garner any sympathy.

Her fingers hesitated on the buttons for a long time, and her hazy tears gradually lost their luster. They changed from fear to despair, and as she closed her eyes, she undid the first button. Her tears flowed down her face and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.

The corner of her mouth curled up into a mocking smile. Right now, she was no different from Susan.

For some reason, what he saw was clearly a smile, but that expression contained an undisputable sadness and despair. This sadness and despair didn't allow him to feel the pleasant sensation of a victor; instead, it gave him an inexplicable feeling of oppression.

His mouth moved as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. He frowned as he watched Mu Zixi undo the first button and quickly remove the second, the third, and the fourth until all the buttons on a coat were undone.

Beneath the jacket was a T-shirt that was already slightly raised, making it seem extremely incompatible with the luxurious hotel. As the wind blew in from outside, Mu Zixi's frail body couldn't help but shiver.

She didn't even look at Cheng Skywhite. Mu Zixi was like a robot as he trembled and cowered as he took off his jacket. She threw it on the ground as if she was throwing away trash, as if she had just gotten rid of a nightmare.

The arrogance in Cheng Skywhite's eyes turned into a surge of darkness. He tightly clenched his lips, making his originally stiff profile seem even more ice-cold. His gaze was locked onto Mu Zixi, who was trembling.

Mu Zixi's hands trembled as she held onto her t-shirt. She bent her hands with all her might and used all her strength to pull her t-shirt over her head.

The clothes were the old clothes from a few years ago. The collar was too small and it caught on her neck. She pulled with all her strength like a tyrannical little beast and the clothes immediately scraped Mu Zixi's face. It was as if she was slapped by fate and mockery. However, she didn't feel any heartache at all. Her heart had long since decided to give up her pride. At this moment, if anyone saw her naked in the corridor, it would tear her to shreds.

Inside the t-shirt was a small vest. Mu Zixi's hand was placed on the small vest's shoulder straps, and when she took off the T-shirt, she seemed to have used up all the strength in her body. Mu Zixi's hands trembled even more violently.

It was already the last one. Mu Zixi had kept her eyes closed the entire time, not daring to open them. Right now, it was as though there were bright mirrors all around her, showing her low, helpless, desperate and shattered self-esteem without restraint.

She really couldn't do it. The shoulder straps on her back seemed to have many poisonous thorns that pierced her heart. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and let go of her hand. She really couldn't do it.

Cheng Skywhite looked at her smooth collarbone, her thin arms, and the tears that were slowly flowing down from the corner of his eyes. He couldn't help but shift his gaze to Susan, who was currently looking at Mu Zixi with a mocking gaze.

Mu Zixi's hand was currently unbuckling her belt, but she didn't lower her head. Her hand was groping about her waist, as if she was a sluggish old man, and wasn't able to untie it even after a long time.

Cheng Skywhite suddenly remembered that on the first day he met her, she also clumsily undid her buttons. Her expression was the same as now, helpless, in pain and fear, but also had a hint of unexplainable stubbornness. He suddenly felt the surrounding air was a bit stuffy, and unconsciously used his hand to tug at the tie on his neck.

"Pfft!" Susan couldn't help but laugh. "What kind of years are these!? There was actually a twenty-something year old girl wearing this kind of boxer pants! It should be worn by the current auntie. This is so funny! "

Mu Zixi's face was already completely red as she stood there, flustered. She didn't know where to put her hands, but she felt that taking off her clothes was like her pride. Her skin was like a protective color, and now, she had lost everything.

"How lofty I thought I was! But it's the same as a prostitute. No, in my opinion, she's even more shameless than a prostitute! " After saying that, she spat on the ground in disgust.

Cheng Haotian's brows were slightly furrowed by Susan's contempt.

At this time, Mu Zixi was like a transparent and perfect glass doll. However, in the next second, his body seemed about to shatter, and one couldn't help but clench one of his hands tightly.

"Come here." Just as Mu Zixi was about to pull his boxers with a trembling hand, the silent Cheng Haotian spoke to her. There wasn't a single ripple in his tone, as if he was just giving out orders.

Susan looked at Cheng Haotian with a puzzled expression. When Mu Zixi heard this, his hand stiffened for a moment before he froze on the spot, blankly staring at him. Her eyes that were already covered with a layer of water vapor couldn't clearly see his appearance, but she knew that the person in front of her made her feel terrified and humiliated, so she didn't have the strength to run away.

Mu Zixi, who stood there naked and still trembling, was like the first dew on a leaf in the morning. Her green body emitted the fragrance of a pure daughter, but her emaciated body, in addition to her recent days of work, looked like a fog that could be evaporated under the sun.

She really made people want to warm her up, but once she got close, it was as if the dewdrop would shake off its leaves and break. It was also like her light and heat would evaporate her, causing both of them to suffer.

"Haotian …" Seeing that Cheng Skywhite had given Mu Zixi a chance to approach, Susan, who had been left alone, finally couldn't help but speak up. In her eyes, this country bumpkin in front of her was no match for her.

He pouted his lips, which were covered in bright lipstick, and slowly walked towards Cheng Haotian while twisting his slender waist. Her sharp gaze swept across Mu Zixi who was leaning against the wall. Her gaze was like a sharp sword, wanting to cut holes in Mu Zixi's body.

Hearing her coquettish voice, and then looking at the enchanting woman who was pestering him like a tail bear, he somehow felt disgusted. Cheng Skywhite's face hardened, and he unhappily pushed away the woman wrapped around his body.

"If you were a smart person, you shouldn't be here." His voice was cold, and when he said this, he intentionally looked in Mu Zixi's direction with a hint of warning in his eyes.

The little woman, who had been tormented to the point where she was unable to show her face, raised her head to meet the gaze of Cheng Haotian. The man's eyes were deep, as if he wanted to suck her in.

She wasn't a fool, so she naturally knew what Cheng Skywhite meant. But now that she had taken that step, pride and self-esteem had become luxury. A life like hers was not worthy of luxury.

"Haotian, what's so good about this malnourished woman? Let me serve you instead. You know how skilled I am."

However, Cheng Skywhite didn't seem to be interested in this kind of teasing. He abruptly grabbed Susan's hand that was on his chest and coldly said with a gloomy face, "Not only are you not smart enough, you're also very stupid."

He suddenly flung the woman's hand away without even a trace of sympathy. He was like a waiter from hell, spreading his black wings and making everything around him dim for a moment.

Mu Zixi saw how he treated a girl so casually, as if he was treating her like a cloth that had been put aside for safekeeping. A wry smile appeared on his face as he saw his future in Susan.

This man had no feelings. He was the same for everyone.

Although she was reluctant, Susan knew that staying here would only attract more contempt. A face covered with fine makeup

A vicious expression was revealed on her face as she swept a cold gaze at Mu Zixi. Her eyes were filled with unwillingness as she bit her lower lip. She refused to accept this outcome.

After a brief pause, Cheng Haotian glanced at the petite woman in the corner of the room from the corner of his eye. Ye Zichen frowned as impatience flashed in his eyes. Just what was she doing? Didn't you hear his words?

"Come here." Seeing that Mu Zixi didn't move, Cheng Haotian pressed his hand against his temple, biting out the word from between his lips.

Mu Zixi crossed his arms in front of his chest as he walked step by step towards Cheng Haotian. She was only a few steps away from Cheng Skywhite, but Mu Zixi felt as if she was walking through a galaxy. Every step she took felt like she was stepping on a sharp knife that had turned into her own tears and her own pride.

Taking a step closer, then another step closer, Mu Zixi lowered her head. She could see Cheng Haotian's shiny leather shoes slowly appear in her vision, slowly growing bigger. From the shiny leather shoes, she could see her own self-esteem being trampled on wantonly by others, and as her tears fell one by one, no matter how hard she grinded her teeth, she was unable to stop them.

Her frail body trembled as she stood in front of the man. She lowered her head as if she was trying to find a place to hide her in this suffocating space. Tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes and slid down his neck with a breathtaking beauty.

Cheng Haotian's hawk-like eyes tightly surrounded her, filled with an intense feeling that no one could understand. It seemed to her that the man had treated her only as a prostitute, and now he was simply examining her, looking at her as if she were an object.
