Chapter 69 Revealing Lin Mier's Secret

Mu Cheng stood up and replied calmly, "My second brother has a fever, and he hasn't stopped eating or drinking. The porridge Xiaotong cooks every day is for him."

In the past few days, Mu Cheng fed Tang Nuo some porridge every day. Tang Nuo had a special body and would be fine if he didn't eat for a few days. The reason why she fed him porridge every day was to hide it from others. It was obvious that she was very foresighted, otherwise it would be hard to explain at this time.

Wang Xintong also stood up and said, "You guys stayed in the house all day, so of course you didn't see Xiaocheng feeding porridge to Brother Tang. But I make porridge, you should know. Yesterday morning, Guo Jiajia came out and told me not to make porridge in the living room, saying that it would make smoke everywhere. I even moved the pot downstairs to make it."

"Okay, even if he ate, why is he having a fever? Was he scratched by a zombie, or is it a natural fever? If it's a natural fever, why hasn't it gone away in three days?"

"It was so cold and rainy the night before yesterday that my second brother caught a cold while on night watch and developed a fever. Now there's no medicine, so he has to rely on himself to get through it. Of course, he can't get better this quickly."

Mu Cheng was so calm, and there was nothing wrong with what she said, that for a moment Lin Mier was unable to say anything to refute her.

But how could Lin Mi'er just let it go like that? She originally thought that she could take this opportunity to drive Tang Nuo away. According to Mu Cheng's attitude, if she drove Tang Nuo away, Mu Cheng would also leave, and then no one would compete with her for Brother Jiang.

So she tried hard to recall what Guo Jiajia and the others had said, and soon she thought of another explanation. "This is what you said. If he is scratched by a zombie, he will become a zombie, and then we will all suffer. So we must check if he has any injuries. If he does, we must leave here."

Lin Mier was not wrong to say that. After all, they all lived here. If Tang Nuo really turned into a zombie, they would be defenseless.

"I think we should check it out too." Yang Fan stood up and said, without caring whether Mu Cheng would agree or not, he directly ordered several people to prepare to check Tang Nuo.

Mu Cheng walked to the sofa to protect Tang Nuo. "My second brother has mysophobia and won't allow any of you to check on him."

She didn't know whether Tang Nuo had mysophobia, but Tang Nuo's body temperature was lower than that of normal people, and his heartbeat was undetectable. If she checked, she would definitely find clues, and then it would be impossible to explain.

Lin Mier smiled sarcastically, "Do you think he's a rich young man born with a silver spoon in his mouth? Ha! He's just a poor soldier with mysophobia. Are you kidding me?"

Mu Cheng's expression instantly turned cold. "Lin Mi'er, what qualifications do you have to look down on soldiers? Did you speak well yourself? Or is it because it's been too long that you've forgotten where you came from?"

Lin Mi'er's face immediately turned red. She pointed at Mu Cheng and her body began to tremble uncontrollably. "Mu Cheng, how dare you."

In order to seek revenge, Mu Cheng was unwilling to make things too awkward with Lin Mi'er. However, when Lin Mi'er insulted Tang Nuo, she got angry, very angry, very angry. "No one here should know your background, right?"

Lin Mier was anxious and yelled at Mu Cheng, "Mu Cheng, you still want to say it?"

"Okay, Xiao Mi, since Brother Tang just has a fever, it's no big deal. Let's all go back!" Yang Fan said with a smile, inviting everyone to go back.

Seeing the attitudes of these two people, Mu Cheng knew that the others really didn't know about Lin Mier's affairs, but Yang Fan should know about it. Like Lin Mier, he didn't want others to know about this.

Oh! The more you want to keep a secret, the more I will not let you do so.

"Lin Mi'er, I took it upon myself to bring you out of the red-light district and used my pocket money to open a milk tea shop for you so you could support yourself. I never thought about how you could repay me, but at least you shouldn't repay me with evil!"

Mu Cheng's words made everyone stop and everyone subconsciously looked at Lin Mier.

Red Light District! Lin Mier actually came from the Red Light District.
