Chapter 120 Men's Perfume
There was an eerie silence on the other end of the line for two seconds.
Then his nonchalant voice came: [Nothing, just asking if you're back.]
Mu Yuan was stunned: [Is that all you ask? ]
His low laugh shook her heart: [Then why do you think I called you? ]
Mu Yuan's eyelashes trembled. God knows, when she was with Gu Chenyi just now.
When Mu Yuan called, it was like there was a surveillance camera installed next to her.
Especially timely.
Mu Yuan was even worried that he was nearby.
I saw her and Gu Chenyi together again.
Deliberately set a trap for her, just like before.
She already has a psychological trauma.
She pretended to be calm: "I don't know, so I called back to ask you."
Huo Min didn't respond to her question, but simply said, "It's late, come back early after you finish."
Mu Yuan said in a clear voice: [Hmm...]
soon.
Then they arrived at the door of the old house.
She paid the money, pushed the door and got out.
Looking away.
The tall and outstanding figure was standing under the awning.
He stood there motionless, as if he had been standing there for a long time.
Because of the distance, she couldn't see the expression on his face.
But the next second.
I saw him walking down the stairs and coming over.
Mu Yuan suddenly clenched the shopping bag in her hand.
She tiptoed towards him.
Fallen leaves drifted on the gravel path that was getting closer and closer between them.
They looked at each other.
Huo Min's eyes were as dark as the night sky.
Mu Yuan felt uneasy seeing this.
Huo Min had previously suspected her relationship with Gu Chenyi.
If he knew that she had seen him.
It was such a coincidence that I ran into him as soon as I went out.
I don’t know what he will think.
Huo Min glanced at the shopping bag in her hand and asked, "Did you buy clothes?"
Mu Yuan opened her pink lips slightly: "No, Meimei gave it to me."
They stood face to face in the yard and talked.
The moonlight tonight is not bright enough, as if it is covered by a layer of gauze and is foggy.
As a result, people's vision is also covered with a veil, foggy and misty, making it impossible to see clearly or see through.
Huo Min smiled casually, the deep meaning in his eyes well hidden in the night: "Did you have fun today?"
Mu Yuan frowned slightly, but still replied calmly: "Not bad."
He smiled and said, "I can see. You were having fun so you missed the call."
Mu Yuan's spine stiffened.
She didn't expect Huo Min to be waiting for her here.
I quickly brought out the words I had prepared: "There was a performance at the mall today, and the music was too loud, so I didn't hear the phone ringing."
"Really?" He curled his thin lips slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Mu Yuan was feeling nervous.
"I thought you weren't planning on coming back, so I didn't want to answer."
Mu Yuan's pupils shrank suddenly: "No, I haven't thought about it that way."
Huo Min's eyes were filled with scrutiny. After a few seconds, he raised his lips slightly and said, "I'm just kidding. Let's go in. It's windy outside."
After that, the sound of wind penetrated the treetops, and the crumbling fallen leaves rustled in the wind, as if playing music.
Mu Yuan thought absentmindedly: The wind is blowing, is the temperature going to drop?
She passed by Huo Min.
He wanted to get into the house quickly, as he didn't want Huo Min to question him again, lest he find out anything.
She didn't notice.
When she walked up to him, his face suddenly became gloomy.
Huo Min stood still.
He glanced sideways, his sharp gaze fixed on Mu Yuan's slender back.
When she passed by him, the smell of ocean perfume brought by the wind was clearly men's perfume.
There's no way her best friend would wear men's perfume.
Then why does she smell like men's perfume?
Huo Min's thin lips were tightened into a straight line.
His complexion became increasingly ugly.
She had just entered the house.
She was dragged to the restaurant by Zhao Keqiong.
"Come on, Yuanyuan, the Chinese medicine is ready, drink it quickly before it gets cold."
Mu Yuan looked at the color of the herbal medicine and confirmed that this was the medicine that Huo Min had changed and had a pure cooling and nourishing effect.
So I drank it with confidence.
"Okay, Mom." She held the bowl and drank it sip by sip.
Yu Guangzhong, Huo Min walked over.
She put down the bowl slightly and looked over.
Seeing this, Zhao Keqiong hurriedly said, "Don't worry, he drank it too. I'm keeping an eye on him."
Mu Yuan's expression froze slightly.
I want to say that she didn't mean that.
But she met Zhao Keqiong's concerned face as she urged her to take the medicine.
Mu Yuan gave up proving himself.
After drinking the Chinese medicine, Zhao Keqiong looked curiously at the shopping bag she had put aside: "Yuanyuan, why did you only buy so little when you went out shopping? Did Ah Min not give you any money?"
Mu Yuan was surprised, glanced at Huo Min, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't buy it, it was a gift from my friend, I have my own money."
Huo Min put one hand in his pocket and replied casually, "I opened a secondary card for her, but she doesn't like to use it."
Mu Yuan choked.
Why are you complaining again?
Zhao Keqiong was puzzled: "Really? You opened a secondary card, but why don't you like using it, Yuanyuan? Isn't it enough?"
Mu Yuan, who was thrown a hot potato question, thought quickly and considered: "No, it's because I have enough money, so I didn't spend much."
Zhao Keqiong understood, but still tried to persuade him earnestly: "Mom knows you're frugal. Every time I force you to buy clothes, you'll buy them. Our family isn't bad off. You can be frugal, but don't be too frugal. Spend what you should spend. Otherwise, what's the point of Ah Min working so hard? There's so much money, but my wife doesn't use it, and there's no child to use it."
The topic inexplicably turned to the children.
If nothing unexpected happens, the next second, labor will occur.
Mu Yuan's scalp tingled, and she stopped talking at the right time: "Okay, Mom, I will use it! Don't worry."
Being interrupted, Zhao Keqiong waved her hand and said, "Alright, it's getting late. You should go wash up quickly. Ah Min is the same. He won't go even if I ask him to. He's waiting at the door like a wife-watching rock, as nervous as if he'll run away if you don't come home."
Mu Yuan choked.
Is it a matter of feeling guilty because she wants to move out?
Why does it feel like the whole world knows she's moving away?
Out of the corner of her eye, there was always a gloomy gaze falling on her face.
She glanced sideways.
Seeing her looking at him, the sternness in Huo Min's eyes faded away, and he smiled casually: "Let's go upstairs."
He reached out and tried to carry the bag for her.
Seeing this, Mu Yuan hurriedly said, "It's okay, I can get it myself."
Huo Min didn't force it and put his hands back into his pockets.
They went up the stairs one after the other.
Mu Yuan walked into the room.
The next moment I heard the door close.
She turned her head reflexively.
Huo Min leaned against the door with his chin slightly tilted up. His beautiful phoenix eyes seemed even narrower and deeper because of the angle.
He exuded a sense of laziness, as if casually bringing up a topic: "Are you and your bestie the only ones here today?"
Mu Yuan didn't think much about it and answered casually: "Yeah, just the two of us."
Huo Min's fierceness, which contradicted his lazy demeanor, was released freely under the dim light.
But his tone was still slow: "She wears perfume?"
Mu Yuan was stunned by his nonsensical question and didn't understand why. "She has rhinitis and never wears perfume."
The hostility in Huo Min's eyes grew deeper and deeper.
He scoffed, "Then where does that perfume come from?"
Mu Yuan's eyes froze for a moment, and she frowned as she smelled the fabric on her arm.
When I smelled the obviously masculine perfume.
The whole person froze.
Huo Min's voice was as deep as ice, as if it would fall if touched: "And it's a men's perfume."
