Chapter 31 The Greedy and Vicious Nanny 9

The next morning.

Xie Rong discovered that the base of her tongue was swollen.

He leaned over the mirror by the sink, sticking out his tongue and repeatedly searching for the source of his injury, angrily cursing the man who had kissed him the night before.

These men are worse than dogs; they can't even control their strength when they kiss. How is he supposed to eat oranges today?

"Host, let me blow on it for you." The system leaned in and blew on the back of his tongue.

But it was completely useless.

Xie Rong rushed out of the bathroom and bumped into Lu Chengjin in the corridor.

Lu Chengjin glanced at him and followed at a leisurely pace.

Finally, they found the person in the kitchen.

Xie Rong sat on the ground, rummaged through the refrigerator and found a box of ice cubes, then picked out the biggest one and put it in his mouth.

He turned his head and saw the man watching coldly not far away. He glared at the man fiercely, turned to leave, but was pulled back.

"You mute, what else do you want to do to me?" Xie Rong said, with an ice cube in his mouth.

Lu Chengjin reached for the medicine box on the shelf next to him, which was even taller than Xie Rong's, and took out a small spray bottle.

Using his finger bones to forcefully pry open Xie Rong's teeth, and discarding the obstructing ice cube, Lu Chengjin glanced at Xie Rong's swollen tongue. His gaze paused slightly, and he pressed the small spray bottle in his hand, spraying three times onto the tongue.

Xie Rong covered her mouth, her face scrunched up, and kicked Lu Chengjin, saying, "What did you spray on me? It's so bitter."

Lu Chengjin sprayed it into his mouth twice more.

"What are you spouting? What use is a mute's mouth?" Xie Rong suddenly leaned close to his face and casually asked, "You're not faking it, are you?"

"..."

[Ding dong, congratulations host, a hidden storyline has been triggered.]

[The protagonist, feigning autism for years to secretly gather evidence of his brother's murder of their parents and the seizure of their property, was solely to lower Lu Chengjun's and other informants' guard. The day before he was to be sent abroad, he took advantage of a push from the wicked nanny, tumbling down the stairs, thus beginning his long-planned revenge.]

Xie Rong laughed, but he didn't expose Lu Chengjin. He simply extended a finger and gently tapped the man's Adam's apple. "You should peel this open and spray it here to cure your muteness."

Lu Chengjin unconsciously swallowed his Adam's apple, but could not relieve the itch.

Xie Rong hummed a song and turned to leave.

At this time every day, he would keep an eye on the gardeners who came to the villa to work, lest they steal his oranges.

The new gardener was a handsome young man. As he trimmed the flowers and plants in the garden, his eyes under the brim of his hat kept glancing at Xie Rong.

Could it be a penniless wretch who came to steal oranges?

Xie Rong looked at him more and more and felt that he looked familiar, and then looked him up and down.

This is clearly the young master who kept making him pour drinks at the Lu family's birthday banquet. He followed him everywhere, forcing him to stand for two whole hours!

Xie Rong was furious. He took a bucket of water from the house and splashed it on the young man while cursing him until he drove him away.

Outside the villa gate, the young man stood there dumbfounded, looking inside through the railing. Several attendants rushed forward, one drying his hair and the other wiping his clothes.

He was the first to find out the news that the young male servant was named Xie Rong and was working as a nanny for Lu Chengjin, that mute man, so he rushed over immediately.

Today, the little servant wasn't wearing the maid's skirt. The weather had turned cold again, and even his breath was white. The little servant was wearing a beige sweater and sat obediently on the steps, looking up at the orange tree.

The collar of his sweater covered his chin, barely revealing his full lips. His hair was long and straight, with a gemstone hair clip in his hair. Sitting on the steps, he looked like someone's little girlfriend. Taking him out would easily attract the attention of his friends. They could only hide him secretly at home. Especially when she splashed water on him and glared at him just now, she was both hot and cute, like a cat in a daze whose tail was caught by a human.

I don’t know if it was just my imagination, but I felt that the young servant’s lips were redder and more swollen than when I was staring at them that night.

He rushed forward, gripping the railing with both hands, wanting to get a better look, but was blocked by a tall figure.

"Lu Chengjin, what are you doing here, you mute? Get out of the way, don't block my view of my wife!" the young man scoffed irritably.

But he soon discovered that the mute man's mouth was also swollen.

The young man immediately became anxious.

The Lu family is powerful and influential, and they have absolute authority in Kyoto. If they want to hide and bully the handsome young male servant, no one will notice no matter how much he cries!

A mute person trying to kiss someone is disgusting!

"What did you do to him? Let me tell you, if you dare bully him, I'll get someone to mess with you!"

But of course, the mute wouldn't pay any attention to him.

Lu Chengjin merely glanced indifferently at his wet hair, then took a picture with his phone.

If this photo gets out, the entire high society will know tomorrow that the eldest son of the Zhao family disguised himself as a gardener and secretly went to someone's villa to peek.

The young man gritted his teeth, his face turning red and then pale, and left for the time being.

Lu Chengjin lowered his eyes and deleted the annoying photo, but as soon as he deleted it, the next photo automatically replaced the previous one and popped up, filling the entire screen.

In the dim light of the night, the light in the photo was somewhat blurry. His hand rested on the boy's snow-white, plump thigh, and with a slight pressure from his knuckles, the thigh flesh squeezed out from between his fingers.

Further up, their waists and chests were pressed together, and his other hand held the boy's chin, their lips and teeth touching.

However, photos cannot reveal everything that happened.

For example, he sucked Xie Rong's tongue until it was raw, bit Xie Rong's lips until they bled, and as Xie Rong wished, he sucked all of Xie Rong's water dry so that Xie Rong wouldn't spill water into his food.

He should have sent this photo to Lu Chengjun last night, so that Xie Rong wouldn't become the matriarch of the Lu family, wouldn't be able to swindle money, and wouldn't even be kissed by a man, leaving her only to secretly cry and continue being his maid.

But then he thought, if he were to release it now, wouldn't all his years of lying low have been in vain?

Besides, this photo isn't perfect. It doesn't even capture the nanny's full face; it only shows her wet chin. Nobody would believe it if I showed it to them. I need to take another one.

Lu Chengjin found himself an impeccable excuse, long-pressed his finger on the screen to put the photo into the hidden album, and then returned to the villa with a normal expression.

As night fell and the clock struck twelve, Lu Chengjin once again stood outside the room that should have been his.

He slowly smoothed out the wrinkles in the suit he was wearing, which he had ordered together with Lu Chengjun. A year ago, when the suit was first made and delivered, the designer had jokingly said that after wearing it, the two brothers would be even more indistinguishable.

He curled his lip in a mocking smile and pushed open the door.

"You've arrived?"

Xie Rong leaned lazily against the headboard and beckoned to him, "Come here."

Lu Chengjin walked over and was put his arm around the neck.

"If you want to get engaged to me, does that mean you'll listen to me in everything?"

Lu Chengjin lowered his eyes and said, "Mm."

Xie Rong leaned close to his ear, her smile laced with malice: "Do you know that your brother is pretending to be mute?"
