On their wedding night, she attempted to flee. The entire city was on high alert, and he cornered her in the bridal suite.
"No, don't come any closer, there's a difference between...
"Sit down and eat." Mu Nanxun's calm voice rang in my ears.
"Didn't you sleep well, Miss? Why are you so sleepy?" In just a short while, she saw Mu Wenya yawn several times.
“No, no,” Aunt Li shook her head repeatedly, her face full of doubt. “It’s strange, ever since Liang Xiaoru started taking care of the young lady, she hasn’t had any more nighttime episodes. She eats and then goes to sleep, sleeping soundly until dawn. After getting enough sleep at night, she also eats and then goes to sleep shortly afterward during the day.”
"That's amazing?" Yi Yi chewed on a small piece of steak, feeling something was off. Normally, a person shouldn't need this much sleep in a day.
"Alright, alright, stop talking about that. Look how delicious this fish I made is." Li Ma picked up the best piece of meat from the fish and put it into Yi Yi's bowl.
Yi Yi's attention was instantly drawn to the piece of fish, and the doubt she had just had only flashed through her mind for a moment.
After lunch, the servants went about their own business.
Only Yi Yi and Mu Nanxun remained at the dining table.
It was the first time the two of them were alone together, and they were both a little uncomfortable.
"Why do you want to participate in the competition?" Mu Nanxun's deep eyes stared directly at him. Her eyes held a myriad of things, as if they could contain the sun, moon, and stars.
Yi heard her own heartbeat, which sounded particularly jarring in the quiet restaurant.
"To make money."
truth.
This place is different from the world of demons and spirits; everything here costs money. She has no family or friends here, so she has to earn money to survive.
Mu Nanxun's eyes flickered; this girl was quite frank.
Is there any chance of winning?
Mu Nanxun got up from the dining table, turned around and took a square box from somewhere.
"I think if I hadn't shown up, you would have had a tough time even in the first round."
Don't underestimate her! She only kept backing away because she discovered the razor blade in Awang's boxing gloves. She has a lot of pride; such a pretty face, if she gets cut, are you going to pay for it?!
Although demon spirits have strong self-repairing abilities, she is now in human form, and her repair abilities have been greatly weakened.
Yi stood up abruptly, but Mu Nanxun happened to be bending down towards her. Her warm lips brushed against his slightly stubbled chin and then pressed against his tightly pursed lips.
A familiar, electric sensation coursed through her body again. Startled, she stumbled backward. In doing so, her heel struck a chair leg, causing her to lose her balance and fall backward.
Fortunately, Mu Nanxun reached out and grabbed her in time, otherwise she would have fallen flat on her face.
It's happening again!
Yi Yi dodged away from Mu Nanxun's embrace, her face flushed and her fists clenched. "You...you took advantage of me again! I...I know kung fu, believe me or not, I'll beat you up!"
So what if I take advantage of you? You can't beat me.
That's the truth.
"..." Yi blinked, speechless.
Are all humans as shameless as him? His face deserves to be trampled under her feet for ten days or half a month, let's see if he's still so arrogant!
"If you want to defeat me, you'd have to train day and night for decades, and maybe you could barely become my opponent." Mu Nanxun's arrogance was truly legendary.
"..." Okay, she was wrong. With a face like yours, it would take at least ten or eight years of treatment to see any results!
Mu Nanxun tossed the box into the air, and it flew in a beautiful arc before landing smoothly in Yi Yi's hands.
"What is this? Is it tasty?" It was a heavy, square white box. She recognized the words on it: Technology Changes Lives.
