Chapter 2210 The Mysterious Man on the Stairs
Mu Ying was embarrassed to say that it was because she bought too many clothes and tried all kinds of styles, and gradually she figured out the pattern. It was mainly because she loved buying clothes and dressing up.
There are so many clothes at home now that they can’t even fit them all in. Her husband, Mr. Chu, has already warned her about this.
Mr. Chu said that he would not buy clothes indiscriminately until he moved to a house with a bigger dressing room.
Ruomu asked: "Then can you hold it in?"
She had seen young wives and girls in the village who loved to go to the market to buy clothes, and no matter how many times they were scolded, they could not change their behavior.
But most of the time, they are lucky and can always find a man who loves them and allows them to spend money.
Mu Ying said that she couldn't help it, so she renovated one of the suites and turned it into her dressing room.
Then she joked that this was actually a disease.
"What's wrong with you? Is it a money-loser disease?"
Mu Ying smiled calmly and said with some sadness, "When I was little, my mother always bought me new clothes and dressed me up like a little princess. My classmates all envied me. Later, my parents passed away, and I was sent to an orphanage. The clothes I brought with me were taken away by the director, so I could only wear the orphanage's uniform."
She paused and continued, "Later, when I was able to buy clothes myself, I couldn't help but keep buying them. But each time I bought clothes, I was only happy for a short while. After all, even if I bought a thousand pieces myself, I would never be able to find the same joy I felt when my mother gave me clothes."
Ruomu didn't expect that Miss Mu Ying's life experience was so tragic. She had previously thought that Mu Ying had a high level of education and a good family education.
Seeing that Mu Ying seemed a little disappointed when talking about her parents, Ruomu told her that it was actually good to have her parents' love for a few years, unlike her, who was beaten for more than ten years and finally found out that she was not her biological child.
"Then have you ever thought about looking for your biological parents?"
"Since they don't want me anymore, they must have their reasons. Forget it, I won't look for them anymore."
Mu Ying patted the back of her hand.
Ruomu felt that the topic was a bit heavy, so he stopped talking about these sad things.
She continued to ask Mu Ying, she seemed to be very good at putting on makeup, did she need to put on makeup every day, so she practiced it slowly.
Mu Ying shook her head and said that she didn’t usually wear makeup. She liked to leave her skin bare to let it breathe more, but she still had to do the necessary maintenance.
She knows how to put on makeup, she has learned it specifically, including makeup and disguise.
Sometimes when she went to help the young master carry out some tasks and needed to disguise herself, she would change her appearance slightly.
This surprised Ruomu. He didn't expect that someone actually had such a mysterious skill.
Mu Ying smiled and said that it was actually just using various props, some facial models, etc. It wasn't that complicated, but it would hurt the skin a little bit...
There was a period of time when I was always wearing and taking off masks, and I felt like my skin was being pulled loose.
Ruomu laughed heartily, and Muying reminded him, "Don't laugh, don't laugh, or the drawing will become crooked."
Ruomu quickly suppressed his smile.
After more than an hour, Ruomu finally finished her makeup.
Chu Lingfeng had finished chatting with Xiao Jun a long time ago, and then went to play a game of chess with Mr. Xiao. He didn't get scolded at all, and they just played chess normally.
After playing chess, he returned to the suite and found the two girls still putting on makeup in the inner room. He did not go in to disturb them. He sat in the living room reading the financial report, listening to the laughter coming from inside from time to time, and smiled helplessly.
This was their first meeting, but Aying already felt familiar with Ruomu.
If Xiao Jun suffers from social phobia, then Aying is definitely his antonym. As long as she wants to talk, there is nothing she cannot say.
After a while, Ruomu and Aying came out together.
Aying put makeup on Ruomu, but it didn't have the gaudy look of heavy makeup. Instead, it looked more fresh and refined. Chu Lingfeng couldn't help but admire that Xiao Jun, this boy, had good taste.
Of course, Aying’s makeup skills are indeed amazing.
Ruomu greeted him and left their suite.
Chu Lingfeng walked over to Ah Ying and pulled her into his arms: "What little information did you get out of me this time?"
Ah Ying was unhappy when she heard this, "Master, when you say that, it's as if I'm chatting with Ruomu with bad intentions and trying to trick her into talking."
"Isn't it?"
"What a misunderstanding! I just heard Hanlu say that Ruomu was bullied by that Qin Sisi, so I wanted to let the little girl look pretty for the banquet tonight."
Ah Ying paused and said, "Not only did I fail to get the information out of him, I also got myself involved."
Chu Lingfeng frowned: "How did you get in?"
Ah Ying told him that she thought Ruomu was simple and lovely, so she gave her contact information to Ruomu. She also gave Ruomu an address so that she could stay safely if she got into trouble in the future.
Chu Lingfeng squinted his eyes and said, "It seems that you have already anticipated that they will be in danger?"
Ah Ying smiled and said, "How could I possibly have that ability? It's better to be prepared! But Master Xiao has a plan..."
Chu Lingfeng kissed her lips, stopping her from continuing. He bit her lip and whispered, "You little spy, you don't even have a sense of security. Aren't you afraid that there are ears on the other side of the wall?"
Ah Ying stuck out her tongue and said, "I forgot."
"Would you like to take a break?"
Ah Ying nodded, "Master, shall we not stay here tonight?"
Chu Lingfeng smiled and said, "No, just show up and leave."
"That's good. I've always felt uneasy. I feel like today is like the Hongmen Banquet. We must leave early."
"Well, I don't want to stay here any longer." He looked at the sky outside the window which was gradually getting darker, and felt a tightness in his chest. Mr. Xiao's garden also made him feel depressed. He also had a premonition today that something was going to happen.
…
Ruomu, holding the dress Mu Ying gave her, walked briskly back to Xiao Jun's suite.
Xiao Jun's suite is on the third floor, and Mr. Chu's suite is on the second floor.
Since it was just one floor up, Ruomu didn't take the elevator, but the small staircase on the side of the villa, which was closer.
The wooden stairs were a bit old and made a heavy creaking sound when stepped on.
Ruomu walked quickly, making a lot of noise as she went up the stairs, thinking deeply about letting Young Master Xiao see the makeup that Mu Ying had put on her.
I was walking too fast, and when I turned a corner, my skirt got caught on the stair railing.
Ruomu was heartbroken and quickly stopped, took off her skirt and checked if there was any snagging.
Fortunately, it's not broken.
But at this moment, a creaking sound came from the upper stairs.
Ruomu looked up when he heard the sound and saw a man wearing a black baseball cap and a black mask flash away from the stair railing.
Who is that person? What is he doing there?
Ruomu looked again and saw that the man should have gone to the fourth floor. Why did he feel that the guy was a bit sneaky and walked without making any sound.
Don't be a bad guy...
Thinking of this, Ruomu broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
