Before Mu Liuyun could be happy for even two seconds, Shen Lanxin walked in from outside the door, looking at Mu Liuyun with a complicated expression.
The system still didn't have it; the "ding" just now was simply the notification sound when Shen Lanxin hung up the phone.
At this moment, Mu Liuyun felt an unprecedented surge of resentment towards Shen Lanxin.
It gives me hope, then plunges me into despair. What does that mean?
Shen Lanxin, of course, couldn't see through Mu Liuyun's little scheme; however, her gaze towards Mu Liuyun became increasingly complicated.
While answering the phone outside the door, upon hearing Bai Yueguang Gu Nan's voice, Shen Lanxin felt nothing but initial surprise and no other emotions. Instead, the image of Mu Liuyun kept appearing in her mind.
So, halfway through the call, Shen Lanxin returned to the doorway and gazed intently at Mu Liuyun, who was in close contact with the ground.
As a result, she heard Mu Liuyun's voice just now.
Because it was too far away, she didn't hear it clearly, only catching the words "Chen Lan...home...".
Does he want to have a home with me?
With these thoughts in mind, Shen Lanxin looked at Mu Liuyun in the room with a complicated expression.
"Do you have a home with Mu Liuyun?"
Shen Lanxin murmured to herself, her mind already uncontrollably starting to think about how, after marrying Mu Liuyun, she worked outside every day to support the family, while Mu Liuyun stayed at home as beautiful as a flower.
After returning home, Mu Liuyun, dressed in a maid outfit, served her a hot meal and gently massaged her tired shoulders.
That might be a good idea...
"wrong!"
Shen Lanxin gritted her teeth and forcibly banished those images from her mind.
Gu Nan is coming back, and I can't let him down!
Remembering what Gu Nan said on the phone earlier...
"Xin Xin, are you listening?"
"..."
Huh? What did Gu Nan just say?
He'll probably fly back tomorrow morning?
"Okay, I understand."
Shen Lanxin hung up the phone before Gu Nan finished speaking, her eyes filled with a mixture of indifference, nostalgia, happiness, and reluctance as she walked in.
Mu Liuyun thought Shen Lanxin had heard her voice just now, and fearing that Shen Lanxin would deduct money from her pay for her performance that did not conform to the script, she turned her face away and dared not look at her.
After Shen Lanxin walked over, she reached out and grabbed Mu Liuyun's hand.
The small, well-defined hands momentarily stunned Shen Lanxin.
Shen Lanxin jolted awake, pressed her tongue hard against the roof of her mouth, and then pulled Mu Liuyun up.
"Cough cough"
Mu Liuyun, who was feeling down, suddenly heard a cough behind him. He turned around and saw Shen Lanxin looking at him strangely.
Mu Liuyun quickly put down her skirt, turned her face away awkwardly, and spoke in a soft, green tea-like voice.
"Sister, I'm sorry, I was wrong, please don't punish me anymore!"
This was a falsetto that Shen Lanxin had asked Mu Liuyun to learn a long time ago, because the woman who seduced Gu Nan usually spoke in this tone.
With her innate protagonist's sacred body, Mu Liuyun naturally learned this special skill with ease.
Since she only uses it at work, Mu Liuyun doesn't feel ashamed.
The only thing that puzzled Mu Liuyun was that at first, Shen Lanxin asked him to call her President Shen, and then to use titles like Master, which highlighted the difference between the two of them.
But recently, Shen Lanxin suddenly asked him to call her "sister".
Could it be that Shen Lanxin has an annoying younger sister in the Shen family?
Mu Liuyun naturally couldn't understand the reason for Shen Lanxin's request, because Shen Lanxin herself didn't know either. She just felt that Mu Liuyun calling her "sister" made her feel a kind of comfort she had never experienced before.
"No need, and we won't need it anymore. Anan is coming back."
When Shen Lanxin said those words, she felt as if her heart was being torn apart. But for the sake of her beloved, she endured it and suppressed the discomfort deep inside.
"knew."
Mu Liuyun still didn't dare to turn around and look at Shen Lanxin, and continued to keep her head down.
Mu Liuyun's reaction made Shen Lanxin even more certain.
He really liked me, but unfortunately...
No, what's there to regret? Our identities are worlds apart, it's simply impossible. I have to put an end to his hopes!
So Shen Lanxin took out a stack of red paper, symbolizing strength and life, from a cabinet next to her.
Mu Liuyun's eyes widened when she saw the stack of at least five hundred 100-yuan bills.
No, this life is much better than the last. I can earn 50,000 just by getting a beating!
"Thank you, boss!"
Seeing Mu Liuyun's excited expression as she accepted the money, Shen Lanxin wanted to say something more, but she didn't know where to begin. It seemed that there was nothing in common between them except money.
Feeling uneasy under Shen Lanxin's hesitant gaze, Mu Liuyun began to have some doubts.
Did they charge too much money?
Normally, Mu Liuyun would only earn around 10,000 yuan for each beating she received. Occasionally, if the beating was particularly severe, she would receive a few thousand yuan in tips.
This is the first time I've ever received 50,000 yuan in one go.
A female CEO worth billions really cares about this little bit of money? Should we give her some back?
With this question in mind, Mu Liuyun looked up and met Shen Lanxin's gaze.
After staring at each other for a long time, Shen Lanxin, having styled her long, wavy hair even more fluffy, finally spoke.
"Consider this money a hush money payment."
"Oh? Okay, okay."
A verbal contract should naturally end verbally.
Now that she had the money, Mu Liuyun gave a few perfunctory replies and left the room without hesitation.
Listening to the footsteps fading into the distance, Shen Lanxin shook her head.
Did you take the money and leave because you were afraid you'd burst into tears if you stayed any longer?
What merit do I, Shen Lanxin, possess to make you so infatuated with me?
But perhaps this separation is a good thing for both of us.
As Shen Lanxin sighed deeply, footsteps sounded again, and Mu Liuyun cautiously peered out from the doorway, revealing her adorable head.
"Excuse me, the house is too big. Could you take me out?"
A flicker of emotion crossed Shen Lanxin's icy face. She couldn't help but chuckle, and her eyes held a hint of something indescribable as she looked at Mu Liuyun. Suddenly, she felt a strong urge to hug the adorable boy before her.
At that moment, the scene of her ex-fiancé leaving her at their wedding resurfaced in her mind.
No, Anan is coming back, I can't let him down!
Shen Lanxin's face immediately turned cold, and she walked past Mu Liuyun at the door.
"Walk."
Mu Liuyun remained expressionless as she watched Shen Lanxin's unpredictable behavior.
Female CEO, huh?
It would be strange if you were emotionally stable and had a gentle personality.
After following Shen Lanxin out the door, the two parted ways. One went to drive his white Bentley, while the other took the number 11 bus.
Before leaving, Shen Lanxin said something meaningful.
"As a man, you'd better reflect on your way of living."
Mu Liuyun was somewhat confused, but still replied respectfully.
"Yes, Mr. Shen."
