Chapter 202: Never Being Frank

Huo Min's eyes were dark: "I will teach you what sincerity means."

Being pressed down.

After learning what "sincerity" means.

Mu Yuan's lips hurt.

But deep down, I am as romantic as mountain flowers.

She wrapped her slender arms around Huo Min's neck, whispered to his ear, took a deep breath, and said softly but solemnly, "I promised you this, and I won't go back on my word."

She will live well.

With him.

Hold hands and appreciate every rain, every scenery, and every ray of light in the future.

Huo Min tilted his head, kissed her cheek lightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay."

-

Return to the village.

As soon as the car stopped, Mu Yuan looked out the window hesitantly.

Huo Min, who was sitting next to her, followed her gaze and looked outside.

But soon, it fell back on her face.

He reached out and covered her hand which was resting on the chair.

Mu Yuan looked back and met his deep, secure gaze.

Wan Er: "I haven't been back for only one day, but I feel that this place is not so desolate for some reason?"

Huo Min curled his lips: "Go down and take a look?"

Mu Yuan chuckled and nodded: "Okay."

This point.

The experts are still busy working in the fields.

Someone with sharp eyes saw them.

He hurriedly shouted, "Boss Huo! Engineer Mu, you're finally back!"

Hear a sound.

Gu Chenyi, who was bending over and working attentively, immediately looked up.

Seeing Mu Yuan, he hurriedly got up and ran over.

I didn’t notice it when I saw it every day before.

Looking at it again today, Gu Chenyi's skin color has obviously become more bronze.

The unruly young master, wearing a straw hat, has a temperament that perfectly blends into this vast land.

Gu Chenyi ran all the way to her, stopped, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Why did you come back just now?"

Huo Min raised his eyebrows: "With me here, what could possibly happen?"

Gu Chenyi snorted, "That day, people threw rotten eggs at Mu Yuan, and you didn't block them. If it weren't for me, something bad would have happened."

Mu Yuan looked at him.

Thinking of the day when he resolutely rushed in front of them and raised his arms to block the rotten eggs for them.

Her face was sincere. "It's okay. We didn't come back yesterday because we stayed up too late. And... we blocked the eggs. Thank you."

Gu Chenyi raised his eyebrows and accepted the thanks without hesitation: "You should thank me. I don't know where that woman found the stinky egg. I took three showers and still smelled."

Mu Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Don't you have perfume?"

"Wouldn't that be both fragrant and smelly? Everyone might have to hold their noses when they meet me."

Mu Yuan laughed.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw other experts looking at me hesitantly.

Some are hesitant.

Mu Yuan's eyes paused slightly, and she took the initiative: "Everyone, have you buried the fat?"

The experts then hurried over, each one offering their help: "It's been buried, and its growth has accelerated significantly recently." "Yes, yes, Engineer Mu, you're really amazing." "Engineer Mu is the youngest researcher here, of course he's amazing."

The moment everyone came over.

Mu Yuan instinctively felt a little worried.

But I never thought.

No one mentioned a word about the ridiculous scene that day.

Just like clouds, they disappear when they are gone.

Seeing that everyone treated her the same as before, Mu Yuan gradually let go of the tension in her heart.

Side glance.

She met Huo Min's gaze, who had been staring at her with a faint smile.

Sure enough, the dark clouds will eventually disperse.

The sun will shine again and bring warmth to the earth.

afternoon.

After everyone finished their work, they gathered together to rest, drink water and chat.

Mu Yuan took the bottle of mineral water that Huo Min unscrewed and handed to her and took a sip.

I could hear the experts next to me discussing, "I never thought Zhao Meiling would be so mean."

"Yeah, yeah, he looked so serious before, tsk tsk, I didn't expect him to be so vicious as to attack an elderly person."

"I heard that when she was selected as a village cadre, she relied on her reputation as the most filial daughter-in-law to win a lot of votes. Now it seems so ironic."

Mu Yuan paused while drinking water.

She looked puzzled and walked forward: "Excuse me, what happened to Zhao Meiling?"

When the experts saw her coming, they chattered one after another, "By the way, Engineer Mu, you weren't here yesterday, so you didn't know that your classmate Zhao Meiling was reported by someone under her real name for abusing her mother-in-law. And I heard she even secretly changed the beneficiary of the insurance policy her husband bought for her mother-in-law to herself."

"It's fine if she changed the beneficiary, but she actually put thallium in the food to make her mother-in-law die sooner. This is chronic poisoning."

"Last night, her husband Wang Dabiao, who was away working, came back and beat her up so badly that several village cadres and grown men couldn't pull her away. You can imagine how angry Wang Dabiao was. He's a filial son after all."

Mu Yuan was not surprised after hearing this.

She had known from the beginning how evil Zhao Meiling's character was.

I just didn't expect it.

She will embark on the path of murder and there will be no turning back.

Thinking of something, she turned her eyes to the side.

He looked across at Huo Min who was still standing there.

The sunlight danced on his body, casting a green shadow on his black eyelashes.

And under the green shadow, his deep eyes were filled with heart-throbbing affection.

Mu Yuan raised her foot and walked towards him.

The breeze blew the hair beside her ear and rubbed her face, causing a slight itch.

She had just stood still.

Huo Min reached out and used his fingertips to help her brush the falling hair behind her ears.

"Zhao Meiling's matter..."

She spoke and then stopped.

Huo Min took the initiative: "It's me."

Mu Yuan guessed it.

Zhao Meiling has been harming people for a long time.

It was suddenly revealed.

It takes an opportunity.

The light was too strong. Mu Yuan squinted her eyes slightly and asked in a low voice, "Why did you suddenly expose her?"

Huo Min's eyes flashed with indifference: "She did something bad."

Mu Yuan frowned slightly: "What?"

Huo Min knew everything Zhao Meiling had done, but what bad things did she not know about?

Seeing how curious she was, Huo Min's eyes darkened. "She installed a micro-camera at the head of your bed, and Su Ruoyun was the one who brought her here."

Mu Yuan was silent for a few moments.

I realized it late and felt scared.

"She's always had inexplicable ill will towards me. I didn't expect that she's still like this even after growing up. But I don't think I've done anything to offend her."

Huo Min lowered his eyes and took her hand.

He gently rubbed the back of her hand with his fingertips and said calmly, "Don't worry about it. Being a victim can never be an excuse for the perpetrator. The problem is only with the perpetrator himself."

Mu Yuan sighed lightly, then thought of something and asked hurriedly, "I just heard them say that someone reported it under their real name. You didn't leave any traces, did you?"

Huo Min's thin lips curled slightly, and he said meaningfully: "Madam, are you underestimating me a little too much?"

Mu Yuan choked, and after a few seconds, she said, "I'm not looking down on you... I'm just worried. There's no such thing as an impenetrable wall."

Huo Min handled the situation with ease: "The person who reported her in real name was the candidate for village leader that she had initially pushed out. There was a conflict of interest between them, and only one person could remain. So, do you think that the opponent who had finally pushed Zhao Meiling out would allow her to make a comeback and compete with me for the position?"

Mu Yuan was surprised and once again admired Huo Min's methods.

Yes, there are many second-generation people in the upper class who cannot support their family businesses, but Huo Min not only can support it, but also created a glorious business empire of his own.

It's just...his past.

He had never spoken to her openly about it.

So, did he come out?

"Ding Dong." While she was distracted, her cell phone suddenly rang.

Mu Yuan took out his cell phone in confusion.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes because of the sender displayed on the screen.
