Chapter 2: Having an affair until 2am before returning home
Mu Yuan didn't know what Tang Nana sent him.
The moment he locked the screen, he felt an urgency to leave.
He frowned slightly.
After all, they were a couple for five years.
Mu Yuan knew at a glance that he was thinking of a reason to leave.
She pursed her lips slightly and called him with the phone hidden under the table.
Seeing the caller ID, Huo Min raised an eyebrow and looked at her.
"Han Zhu is calling you at this hour? Is there something important that needs to be dealt with by the group? Please answer the phone."
She pretended to be completely unaware and pushed him seriously.
She deliberately turned her face to the side and winked at him where Zhao Keqiong couldn't see, hinting at him.
Huo Min understood, and a hint of warmth flashed across his eyes.
Zhao Keqiong didn't know about the eye contact between them, and thought that something was wrong with the group, so she urged: "If there is something wrong with the group, you should go back first. I will ask someone to send Yuanyuan home later."
Mu Yuan was about to nod.
Her wrist was suddenly grasped, a circle of heat radiating from it. She looked at Huo Min in surprise, but he lifted her up.
And his hand was still tightly clasped around her wrist.
"No need. Yuanyuan and I can just go to the group together and then go home together."
"Can……"
Huo Min didn't give Zhao Keqiong a chance to ask questions, and said, "We're leaving first. Good night, Mom."
He then pulled Mu Yuan away.
Mu Yuan left in a hurry, but did not forget to say goodbye to Zhao Keqiong.
See them leave in such a hurry.
Zhao Keqiong was speechless and looked at the old servant beside her: "Look at him, he acted as if I were some kind of rich wolf or tiger. As soon as I said I would personally send his wife home, he hurriedly dragged her away."
The old servant laughed, "The young master is so fond of the young mistress that he keeps such a close eye on her."
Zhao Keqiong paused for two seconds and said solemnly: "But she is too peaceful and can't control that vixen. This won't work..."
In the car, Mu Yuan sneezed.
"It's very cold?" Huo Min flicked the air conditioner with his fingertips, and the temperature increased.
"I don't feel cold..." Mu Yuan wondered why he suddenly sneezed.
She looked up and saw the subway station not far away, and said hurriedly, "Just drop me off at the subway station, I'll go back by myself."
"I'll take you home first." His voice was calm but contained a tone that left no room for argument.
Mu Yuan did not refuse again, and stared at the road scenery outside the window, which was connected by shadows, in a daze.
When people are daydreaming, their minds will run wild.
For example, she is thinking about it now.
What would Huo Min say and do when he goes to see Tang Nana?
After all, she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
People are always curious about things they have heard about but never seen with their own eyes.
Mu Yuan glanced sideways.
The shadows outside the window made his profile more three-dimensional, and under the shadow of his long black eyelashes, his innate sense of indifference and disdain deepened.
He seems so cold on the surface, but he is actually a passionate person at heart.
When she arrived at her doorstep, she was about to get off the car.
But then I heard him say in a low voice: "She came to see me. I didn't know she was going to the restaurant. I booked the place and cleared everyone out, but I didn't expect to be secretly photographed anyway."
Mu Yuan stopped moving, turned her head and looked at him again, not understanding what he meant by this sentence.
His expression was calm, without a trace of falsehood. "I have to explain myself for causing trouble for you."
It wasn't until the wind blew her hair and tickled her cheeks that Mu Yuan came back to her senses.
The taillights had already disappeared around the corner.
Mu Yuan clicked on the trending search list again, and the headline had changed to: [Donald Na-na beats Vivian, once again secures a top luxury endorsement, firmly securing her spot as the top supermodel]
As for the news that "The Huo family heir rekindled his old love and booked out the entire theater just to win the smile of a top supermodel", no information could be found.
Some time ago, there was a lot of buzz online, describing Vivian as the face of the new generation of supermodels. She even endorsed several major luxury brands and was about to surpass Donna.
Especially this time, the endorsement of the top luxury brand is a competition between two models.
But in the end, Donna won.
There was a love scandal last night and the endorsement was won today. Even Mu Yuan, who only knew about flower research, could see that last night's rumors were hype.
There was no way Huo Min couldn't see it.
So what does he think?
After a few seconds, Mu Yuan put away her phone and threw away all the messy thoughts.
No matter what he thinks, it's a two-way street, and he deserves to be scumbed.
-
Mu Yuan slept lightly.
I wake up easily at the slightest noise.
Hearing footsteps outside the door, she picked up her phone in a daze.
My eyes were blinded by the bright light from the screen before I could see the time clearly: 2:15.
What was he thinking about going home after having an affair at 2 a.m.? Why didn't he just sleep over at Don Nana's house for one night?
When Mu Yuan got up the next day.
Huo Min sat at the dining table, sipping coffee from his cup. His forearms were clearly defined and powerful under his rolled-up sleeves.
He lifted his dark eyes and saw that her face, which had just been washed and was not made up but could not hide her natural beauty, had a sleepy look on it.
"Didn't sleep well?"
Mu Yuan murmured "hmm" and opened the drawer to make tea.
She couldn't get used to black coffee and only liked tea, so her drawer was full of the tea Huo Min brought back.
Many are simply packaged in sealed bags, and you can't see the brand or search for the price.
In the corner, the most beautifully packaged small iron box contains the ration tea she bought a long time ago at 30 yuan per pound.
Haven't moved for a long time.
Because I was picky about food and couldn't drink it, but I couldn't bear to throw it away, so I just put it in a corner as a decoration.
She turned her back to him and threw tea leaves into the covered bowl with familiarity: "I thought you didn't come back last night."
"Why?"
In the covered bowl, the tea leaves are lifted to the surface by hot water.
"Didn't you go find her?"
“No.”
Didn't he want to leave and find her last night?
Was he angry because he found out that Don Nana was using him to create scandals?
Mu Yuan poured out the tea and burned her fingertips because she was distracted.
She turned and looked over.
Huo Min's features were rather deep, and when he wasn't smiling, his emotions, which were rarely revealed, seemed even more profound.
Mu Yuan held the teacup in both hands and looked at it quietly.
Failed quickly.
His expression remained unchanged, and it was hard to tell why.
In terms of sharpness, she is far behind.
Because Huo Min caught her hesitant expression and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."
She thought for a moment and said, "Nothing. I want to visit friends this weekend. If there's anything you need my cooperation with, please let me know in advance."
Huo Min lowered his eyes and placed the empty coffee cup on the table: "No need to cooperate, feel free to do as you please."
Mu Yuan took a ride with Huo Min.
The laboratory is quite close to the Huo Group, so she can take his car and doesn't have to go through the trouble of taking the subway.
It saves trouble, so why not do it?
But their relationship was not public. In order to avoid trouble, Mu Yuan asked Huo Min to let her get off the car at the corner.
She looked around vigilantly, and after making sure she didn't see anyone she knew, she got out of the car quickly.
"Thank you!" he said without even looking at him.
He raised his brow slightly.
Watch her jump out of the car and run into the alley like a spy, afraid of being seen.
After a moment, he curled his lips helplessly.
It was so sneaky that it looked like an affair.
He was about to drive away when his cell phone rang with a message.
Tang Nana: [Amin, I feel very uncomfortable. Can you come to me? ]
