C82

When Mu Huainan came out of the supermarket, he was carrying two big bags of ingredients. He turned around and walked to the back of the car, put the things in the trunk, and then opened the door and returned to his seat.

I started.

The corner of his lips curled up slightly. "I remember that someone used to like to eat."

Mu Huainan did not say anything as the car started. He tore off the lollipop paper with one hand and placed it into his own mouth.

My heart suddenly felt empty. I nearly opened my mouth to open it just now!

Fortunately, he didn't think too highly of himself, or else he would be mocked again.

His face hurt a little because he had just said, "Which adult eats lollipops?" Now he was being mercilessly slapped in the face.

The car drove on for a long time.

Uncle can endure it, but Aunt can't!

I turned and glared at him, reminding him in a disgruntled tone, "Can you stop smacking your lips over a piece of candy? It's so noisy."

He ignored me, and after three seconds of silence, his voice grew louder.

He even burped!

The air was filled with the scent of orange candy. I... I, I, I …

I turned and looked at him vaguely.

"Anything else?"

He actually played dumb, "What do you mean you don't have it?"

I blushed and pretended to be righteous to hide my embarrassment.

"Sugar!" Why are you eating all by yourself? Haven't you heard a word called 'Share!'? "

The car suddenly stopped, and only then did I realize that I was already home.

I left the house in a huff and went home.

Behind me was the sound of the car door opening and the trunk pulling, and also the sound of the plastic bag pulling. I first pressed the password to open the door, and then changed my shoes.

He suddenly took me by the waist from behind and turned me to face him. He lowered his eyes, caught me off guard, and I was once again forcefully kissed by him.

This time, in addition to his cold lips, I could feel the sweet taste of his mouth.

It tasted of orange soda, a round sugar bean.

I realized that this guy had spat out the sugar beans in his mouth to me. I don't want him to eat it!

He puffed out his cheeks in an attempt to blow open his lips and spit the sugar back into his mouth.

He opened his mouth a crack, and before I could do anything, he stuck out his tongue to the wisdom teeth I had yet to grow.

That sugar bean, sweet and greasy, was driven by the tip of his tongue, lingering in every corner of my mouth, back and forth, everywhere sweet, sweet in my heart, so that I could not find a reason to push him away.

That sugar bean slowly melted in my mouth, and in the end became a very, very small, very fragmented grain. It slid down my throat and carried Mu Huainan's smell.

He gradually let go of me, but I lowered my head, not daring to look at him. My heart raced and my face flushed red.

"Clean up, change clothes and take a bath. The meal will be ready soon."

He turned and walked back to the kitchen. My body was warm and soft, and I just wanted to sit on the couch and keep blowing the air conditioner.

Beside the sofa, there was a huge suitcase.

I frowned, is this Mu Huainan's, but since he came back before, he won't be able to stay for more than two days. Other than the last time when I was eighteenth birthday, he brought a present for me in his luggage. But this time the suitcase was bigger.

Even though I was curious, I didn't ask much and didn't dare to casually touch his things.

Because I was bullied by him just now, my back was covered in fine beads of sweat, and it was extremely sticky. I wanted to take a bath, but then I thought, what if he.

After a long struggle on the couch in the living room, I got up and decided to go wash.

It should be fine to close the bathroom door a bit tighter, and if I don't wash now, he'll want me to wash up with him after dinner.

Then I don't even have a reason to refuse.

Quickly, I went into the bathroom and locked the door behind me, but fearing that he would have a spare key, I filled the large bucket I used to wash and mop with water again, and heaved myself to the door and held it shut.

In this way, I felt slightly at ease.

With a start, I showered and dressed. As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, I smelled beef soup. If there's anything in this world that I can't get tired of, I will be the first to say that it's Mu Huainan's beef noodles.

What was different from usual was that on the table, besides the beef noodle soup and a few side dishes, there was also a bottle of red wine and two goblets.

Mu Huainan forbid me to drink.

But today, this was …

"This was sent by Zhao Kun." Mu Huainan started drinking while saying: "As soon as I returned home, I received his package. He said that last time I brought you home, he couldn't resist drinking a few of my bottles of wine." Mu Huainan poured the wine, and after pouring it, he waved the bottle in front of me: "This wine is produced by the President's Manor of France, one bottle is equivalent to the defective wine that you passed to him that day, Zhao Kun gave him three bottles at a time, he really used up a lot."

When he mentioned the last time, I suddenly felt a little guilty.

"What are you blanking out for? Sit down and let's eat." He helped me pull out the stool, set the bowls and chopsticks, and poured a third of the red wine into the goblet he handed me.

Tell me, "That's all you can drink."

I sat down slowly, not daring to even breathe loudly, for fear that he would ask me a few more questions about Zhao Kun.

"You got along pretty well with Zhao Kun."

I ate the noodles with my head down.

"Now the company has pulled in three more investors and even found a media company to work with. It looks like the progress is even faster than I expected."

I got a little more nervous when he mentioned the media company.

He didn't notice when he was sucking on the noodles. He used too much force and scalded his tongue.

It's so hot that I stick out my tongue and pant like a puppy.

Mu Huainan smiled and came over to help me blow the wind.

My face reddened again.

"Have you heard about the new company? What do you think?"

I was stunned, my heart pounding.

"What new company?"

Acting dumb wasn't my strong point, it was quickly seen through by Mu Huainan. He glanced at me briefly, and in that instant, I felt my hair stand on end.

His deep gaze was deep and unfathomable, complicated and mysterious, with even a little bit of interest and teasing.

I really don't want to be bullied by him.

"Oh!"

I pretended to be slow to react.

"You're talking about that new company." I wanted to laugh to cover my past, but somehow, the more I laughed, the more uncertain I felt.

Mu Huainan looked at me without interrupting.

I didn't even dare look him in the eye, as if any glance would see through me completely. He glared at me again, and I confessed.

"It's a new company, but the boss is not bad. He is a very famous person in the industry. Now that he wants to start his own business, he has great prospects for development and meets our requirements for a partner."

These words were all given to me by Zhao Kun. He said that he wanted me to memorize these just in case.

Looking at it now, it was very dangerous.

But how could Mu Huainan be so easily deceived?

Even though he didn't say anything, he merely replied with a plain "En". Then I lowered my head to eat, but the quieter the atmosphere, the stranger it seemed to me.

Maybe he had done something shameful, so he couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, so I opened my mouth: "Uncle Huainan, how many days are you staying in the country for?"

"Not for now."

For a moment I couldn't close my mouth.

After taking a long time to recover, she slowly asked, "How long is this temporary?"

Mu Huainan put down the chopsticks in his hand, raised his head and looked at me, his thick and long brows slightly raised: "How long are you hoping for?"

I pouted. "What? I was the one who asked you first, why did you throw the question back at me?"

He laughed, loudly.

When the air was still again, he told me, "I'll stay as long as you're here."

The hand with the chopsticks suddenly froze. He couldn't even pick up a single cucumber thread.

After a while I asked him, "What about the company in Paris?"

"The transfer of headquarters is almost over. I moved the headquarter to the country."

He paused, then added, "I won't have to fly more than half the Pacific Ocean to see you again."

My heart sank. I couldn't tell if it was sour or sweet.

Probably both.

"An'an." He suddenly called to me.

"Eh?"

"I said that I would take care of you for the rest of your life, so it must be for the rest of your life, not even a day less."

I suddenly remembered the line by Zhang Guorong when I was watching the movie "Overlord Bye Ji".

"We agreed to live for a lifetime. A day, a minute, a second … we will never live a lifetime."

But that was because Yu Ji loved the hegemon, so her words sounded sincere, which was why she could move so many people.

But Mu Huainan …

I couldn't help it. I put down my chopsticks, wiped my mouth, and looked up at him seriously.

"You don't have to always make promises to me. Even if you know the truth, I won't leave. I know what I owe you. I won't leave until I pay my debt, so you don't need to say those nice words to coax me."

Mu Huainan suddenly frowned, "Do you think I am coaxing you?"

I looked away. "Isn't it?"

"If I want to keep you by my side and not love you, I have ten thousand ways to keep you alive."

My body shuddered, and my palms were covered in cold sweat.

I didn't think about it. I didn't think about what would happen to me if I wasn't somebody's double, if he really didn't feel anything for me.

I didn't dare speak anymore. I just listened to him.

"You just said, 'Even if you know the truth'." Mu Huainan frowned as he repeated what I had said before, "What truth?"

"The truth is, you like Lu Jingyu, I am only a substitute for her."

Mu Huainan was startled. Something flashed past his eyes, and before I could see clearly, he suddenly stood up and sat beside me.

My heart thumped a few times.

"You … "What are you doing..."

Based on past habits, it was definitely not a good thing for him to suddenly get close.

"Are you jealous?"

he asked me suddenly.

I was startled before I recovered from my shock and sneered, "How is that possible? How can I be jealous of you?"

Suddenly, the entire room went silent.

Mu Huainan took a deep breath, lowered his head, and stuck it close to my ear.

"Do you know how you act when you don't mean what you say …?" He stopped and then, with the softest voice, wrapped in countless ambiguous granules, rubbed them against my ear. "It's the most beautiful."

My face immediately turned red and I didn't dare to touch it. I reckoned that even my hands were burning.

After so many days, this fellow's ability to coax others became more and more powerful.
