Chapter 155: Early Out and Late Return
Co-pilot.
There was an inexplicable low pressure in the car.
Mu Yuan quietly looked at Huo Min who was steering the wheel skillfully.
In the dim car.
The dark corners further highlight his sharp jawline.
Even if you only look at the side profile.
It is also particularly outstanding.
The indifference on his handsome face remained the same as usual.
But Mu Yuan could still sense the low pressure he was emitting.
But, he himself didn't seem to notice.
This change started after he received Han Zhu's call.
Wait until he hangs up the phone.
Mu Yuan originally wanted to ask Han Zhu what he said. After all, it was really strange that Huo Min looked at her with deep eyes when they were talking on the phone.
But after hanging up the phone, Huo Min said calmly, "It's late. I'll take you home first."
Mu Yuan was surprised: "Send me home first? If you...if you have other plans, go ahead and do them. You don't have to send me home."
Huo Min's dark eyes narrowed: "It's okay, I'll go after I send you off."
Actually.
Mu Yuan was almost done with her work.
Now I could see the fluctuations in his emotions.
He subconsciously swallowed back the words of refusal.
"Okay, wait for me, I need to clean up."
The coldness that lingered between Huo Min's brows finally melted a little, and he whispered, "I'll help you."
Mu Yuan came back to her senses from her memories.
He looked at Huo Min quietly again.
Han Zhu's call should be related to her.
But why did Huo Min never mention it?
It could only be that it's inconvenient to say.
So she could only keep her doubts to herself.
Unless he says so himself.
The car was halfway through.
Mu Yuan then realized that this was the way to the old house.
She was surprised: "Aren't you going back to the apartment?"
Huo Mindan glanced at her and said, "Mom got some Chinese medicine again and asked us to go back to the old house."
Mu Yuan had a headache, even though Huo Min changed the medicine every time.
So they are drinking 'fake Chinese medicine' every time.
But this "fake Chinese medicine" can be disguised as Chinese medicine because its color, aroma and taste are all "close relatives" of Chinese medicine.
Not only does it smell bad, it's also hard to drink.
She was a little upset: "How long will we drink?"
Huo Min's eyes darkened: "Until we have a child."
Mu Yuan felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
Doesn’t that mean I’ll have to take Chinese medicine indefinitely?
"Then why don't we go back to the apartment instead of the old house? Can't we avoid the Chinese medicine?"
Huo Min said calmly: "Do you think she will let it go?"
Mu Yuan: ...Based on Zhao Keqiong’s personality, she certainly won’t do that.
She thought of something and frowned slightly: "But we can't stay in the old house forever, right?"
Seeing his thin lips slightly opened, Mu Yuan spoke first: "Besides, you said at the beginning that you lived in the old house because the apartment was being renovated, but now you are not renovating the apartment."
Huo Min's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't allow any arguments. "I'll find someone to design and renovate the apartment. I'll live in the old house for the time being."
Mu Yuan looked suspicious and pointed out: "You actually want to use Mom to suppress me so that I can't move out, right?"
Huo Min curled his lips and said softly, "Yeah."
Seeing that he admitted it so readily.
Mu Yuan's brows furrowed even deeper: "You don't have to be like this."
Huo Min had a lazy smile at the corner of his eyes: "I don't want to go home and find that my wife has run away, so it is necessary."
Mu Yuan choked.
She really wanted to run away...
But recently... this idea hasn't been so strong...
When I think back to the intimate kiss just now.
Mu Yuan's cheeks instantly warmed up and turned a light pink.
Recently, the frequency of their unexplained kissing has been increasing...
The ambiguity that occurs without a confirmed relationship.
It irritates the heart and burns the lungs.
That sentence was clearly spoken.
But she refused to speak.
She leaned against the headrest helplessly, her eyes moving to the rapidly moving road scene outside the window.
I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.
Each of them had his own thoughts.
The car drove into the old house.
Mu Yuan waited until he parked the car before turning her head to look at him: "I'll go up by myself, you can go now."
As she spoke, she tried to open the car door.
"Yuanyuan."
Mu Yuan was about to use her strength to pry open the door handle when she pressed her wrist down again. She stopped and looked at him: "Huh?"
The half of his face that was not illuminated by the light and shadow looked even colder and darker in the dim shadow.
Huo Min stared at her in silence.
Mu Yuan was confused by the look and didn't understand why he suddenly looked at her without saying a word.
Just take the initiative: "What do you want to say?"
Huo Min's eyes were dark and his tone was deep: "The group is currently bidding for a big contract, so I might be leaving early and coming back late for the time being."
Mu Yuan's eyelashes blinked slightly: "Oh..."
Go out early and come back late...
It would help to reduce the frequency of their contact.
The look he gave her was dark and unclear.
Mu Yuan always felt that he was hesitant to speak.
But I waited for a while.
He swept away the sharp expression on his face, raised his thin lips slightly, and smiled gently: "I've asked the kitchen to make your favorite dishes, come in."
Mu Yuan pursed her lips: "Hmm..." She opened the car door.
The right foot has firmly planted on the floor.
The whole person turned around uncontrollably: "You don't want to eat?"
Her cold face was tinged with concern for him.
Huo Min felt a warm feeling in his heart: "It's fine with me, I'll just go back to the group and have something to eat."
Mu Yuan hesitated for a few seconds, then grabbed his sleeve with her slender, beautiful fingers.
Huo Min raised his brows slightly, his eyes sparkling.
He remained motionless, waiting patiently for her to speak.
Mu Yuan met his deep black eyes, her heart fiddling, her expression unnatural: "Well, the kitchen always makes a lot of food, I can't finish it, so you eat with me. I mainly think that we shouldn't waste food."
Watching her desperately trying to find reasons to justify her concern.
The smile in Huo Min's eyes was as gentle as a pool of spring water: "Okay, I'll eat with you."
Mu Yuan's ears felt hot as she defended herself, "I didn't mean to ask you to eat with me, I just..."
Her remaining words were drowned out by the movement of his backhand moving down along her slender wrist.
His fingers are very long and his palms are very wide, just clasped together.
It easily wrapped around her smaller hand.
The back of my hand felt his warm body temperature.
Mu Yuan's heart was pounding.
Her confident thoughts just now turned into a mumble: "Your palms are sweaty..."
He chuckled softly from his chest, his voice extremely frivolous: "I can't help it. My heartbeat quickens and my body temperature rises as soon as I see you, Madam. Please forgive me, Madam."
Those black pupils, as dark and tender as the night, made Mu Yuan's heart beat so fast that her mouth became dry.
She felt as if she was burned and quickly withdrew her hand.
His eyes were erratic and he quickly got out of the car: "Eat it or not, whether you like it or not."
She shouldn't have worried about whether the indecent person would get a stomachache from hunger.
“Pah.”
Huo Min, who was shut out, was not annoyed, but laughed instead.
Those narrow and long phoenix eyes shone as brightly as stars in the dim environment of the car.
Dining room.
Huo Min finished eating quickly.
The moment he wiped his mouth slowly.
Zhao Keqiong was stunned: "Why are you eating so fast today?"
Huo Min raised his dark eyes and said, "I need to go back to the group. Something's going on."
Zhao Keqiong understood: "Is that so."
She glanced sideways, her slender eyebrows curved. "Yuanyuan, shall we have hotpot this Saturday? I'll ask Xitao to bring Guangguang along. I dreamed about this little troublemaker last night, and I suddenly miss him a little."
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes paused for a moment at the word "Xi Tao".
By the way, about Huo Min’s strange behavior that day.
She had something else to ask Zhao Xitao.
