Xu Xining adores this new life, free from the heavy burdens of her previous identity and suffocating responsibilities.
What she feels most is the love from her family and the freedom of livin...
Grandpa Mu laughed heartily. This was a great honor for the Mu family. He then explained the whole process to Mu Zhenting and Mu Jingheng, and also mentioned Xu Xinning's cooperation with the military pharmaceutical research institute.
Mu Jingheng was alright, but Mu Zhenting was shocked. So, the three of them combined were no match for Xu Xinning alone. She had made most of their life's worth of money just by going out for a short while.
Mu Zhenting turned to look at Mu Jingheng, raised an eyebrow, and it seemed that his second son was determined to live off his wife.
Mu Jingheng, the gigolo, felt wronged. He hadn't seen his wife for so many days, and he longed to fly to her side and be all lovey-dovey with her. He wondered if his wife missed him.
Honestly, Xu Xinning has been very busy these past few days since she came to school. She's either studying her own courses or being dragged to the lab by Du Changpu to research new drugs. So it seems she hasn't had any time to think about Mu Jingheng. Every day, she goes straight to sleep as soon as she gets back to her dorm.
The next morning, Mu Jingheng took breakfast and went straight to Xu Xinning's school.
Since Mu Jingheng was driving Old Master Mu's car, the security guard simply registered him and let him through.
Mu Jingshu told Mu Jingheng which building and room number Xu Xinning's dormitory was.
At that time, Mu Jingshu even teased Mu Jingheng, revealing in front of Old Master Mu and Mu Zhenting that Mu Jingheng had secretly slept with Xu Xinning.
Luckily, Xu Xinning wasn't there, otherwise I would have been mortified.
However, Mu Jingheng was shameless. He brazenly declared that she was his wife and they definitely had to sleep together.
Mu Jingheng's words greatly worried Old Master Mu and Mu Zhenting. They had slept together before even getting married. What if she got pregnant? How could they explain it to their in-laws? But Mu Jingheng wasn't old enough to get a marriage certificate yet. How could they not be worried to death?
Old Master Mu spent the whole night staring at the calendar, wondering how long it would be before Mu Jingheng could get their marriage certificate.
Grandpa Mu felt this was even more difficult than when he fought the Japanese. When he fought the Japanese, all he had to do was pick up a gun, grab a grenade, and charge in recklessly to crush them. But his grandson wasn't old enough yet, and this could really end up killing someone.
But upon closer reflection, they realized that their granddaughter-in-law was a renowned healer, so it was unlikely that anyone would die. However, since it concerned the young woman's reputation, the Mu family was indebted to her.
Old Master Mu kept rummaging around in his study, secretly taking out all the assets he had hidden away, intending to use them to make amends.
Mu Zhenting shared the same idea as Old Master Mu.
Mu Jingheng's mother left behind a lot of jewelry and ornaments. When the turmoil began to show signs, he hid them in a safe place, intending to pass them on to his two daughters-in-law. Now it seems that he has to favor his younger daughter-in-law for the sake of his second son.
What a terrible thing!
Children are a debt!
They were in debt, and their parents had to clean up their messes.
Xu Xinning, who was fast asleep at school, had no idea that she was about to become incredibly wealthy.
Xu Xinning didn't get up early in the morning. By the time she got up, some of her classmates had already gone to the cafeteria.
When Mu Jingheng arrived at the dormitory building, he was about to ask the dormitory supervisor to call Xu Xinning when Li Youxuan returned from the cafeteria with her food.
In general, most students eat in the cafeteria and then come back, but some students are frugal and bring some pickled vegetables from home. In that case, they can just have some porridge or a multigrain steamed bun with the pickled vegetables for a meal.
Li Youxuan is a shrewd person. She is never stingy when it comes to her clothes, but she is very careful when it comes to food.
After all, her family wasn't well-off. Although she received a salary from her workplace and received subsidies from the school while studying, she still had to support her family, so she didn't have much disposable income each month.
No one knew about Li Youxuan's situation except herself. People who had met her all thought that her family must be quite well-off, since in this day and age, it is rare to see someone as willing to spend money on their clothes as she does.
It is said that clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse; good looks are 30% natural and 70% about how you dress. Dressing well can certainly enhance one's appearance.
Li Youxuan's favorite color to wear is white. She thinks it looks clean and, combined with her appearance, makes her look very pure.
Today, Li Youxuan wore a white long-sleeved dress with a light yellow cardigan over it, and square-toed leather shoes. Her hair was tied up with a ribbon, with the other half draped over her shoulders, making her look gentle and elegant.
When she saw Mu Jingheng, she couldn't take her eyes off him; she had never seen such a handsome man before.
Just as she was lost in thought, the dormitory supervisor called her: "Student, you're from room 203, right? Could you please go upstairs and ask Xu Xinning from your dorm to come down for a bit? Someone's looking for you."
It was Xu Xinning again. Li Youxuan felt a surge of impatience, but when she looked at Mu Jingheng, she immediately put on what she considered her most charming smile.
Mu Jingheng had lived a previous life, and besides, he had managed to climb to a high position in such an environment in his previous life. Needless to say, his vigilance and observation skills were unmatched by ordinary people.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Jingheng saw through Li Youxuan's expression and understood her true nature.
He frowned, thinking to himself that he must remind Xu Xinning not to get too close to her.
Li Youxuan smiled at Mu Jingheng and said naturally, "You must be Xu Xinning's brother, right? I'm her classmate and roommate. My name is Li Youxuan. Xu Xinning and I are very close. It's an honor to meet you."
Mu Jingheng nodded with a serious expression and said, "I am her fiancé."
Li Youxuan was stunned.
fiancé?
Is this Xu Xinning's fiancé?
She could tell from Mu Jingheng's demeanor that he must have come from an extraordinary background.
Why is Xu Xinning so lucky?
Li Youxuan's jealousy flared up again.
Jealousy made her momentarily forget to control her facial expressions.
Mu Jingheng frowned even more deeply. He had to talk to the old man and tell him that Xu Xinning couldn't stay in the dormitory anymore.
Seeing that Li Youxuan was standing still, the dormitory supervisor reminded her, "Student, why don't you go and call Xu Xinning down?"
"Huh?" Li Youxuan came back to her senses, smiled apologetically, and said, "Okay, I'll go call him right away."
Xu Xinning seemed to have a premonition. Although Li Youxuan didn't say who was looking for her, she knew it was Mu Jingheng.
The thought of Mu Jingheng coming to see her suddenly made Xu Xinning miss him more than ever before. She hurriedly grabbed a coat and ran outside.
Seeing Xu Xinning like this, Lin Ying joked with the other girls in the dorm, "Who is this girl going to see? Why is she in such a hurry? Is it her sweetheart?"
Li Youxuan kept her head down and remained silent, not even in the mood to eat breakfast.
Why do all those men like Xu Xinning?
