Chapter 3: Forced to Abdicate
Mu Yuan used her phone to check the time last night and didn't notice that the charging cable was loose.
After entering the laboratory, I simply put my phone aside to charge and concentrated on studying plants.
It wasn't until noon that I saw a missed call on my phone.
She called back in confusion.
I never thought it would be Don Nana.
Ask her to meet in the afternoon, alone.
When Mu Yuan asked for leave, the deputy dean scolded her: "Yuanyuan, next month is the group's performance evaluation meeting. This is a crucial competition between us and K Laboratory. It's a serious matter. Those key seedlings are extremely fragile. As a researcher, you should take care of them 24 hours a day. Why are you asking for leave at this critical juncture?!"
"Sorry, Vice Dean, I do have something urgent to take care of. I'll be back as soon as I'm done."
The deputy director waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, go quickly and come back soon."
The place Tang Nana booked was the VIP room of a top luxury brand.
This brand requires capital verification to purchase, and it is obvious that it only serves the upper class.
Moreover, this place is very independent and outsiders cannot enter.
Suitable for meeting...
Also suitable for an affair.
When Mu Yuan was brought in by her agent, the first thing she saw was a tall beauty standing tall in the three mirrors.
Even the mirror area in the VIP room is decorated like a stage.
Don Nana was wearing a tight blue long dress that perfectly outlined her exquisite figure. The hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps, like a blooming flower in the water.
At first glance, she seemed to be standing on the stage, shining brightly.
"You're here, Miss Mu?" Tang Nana walked over with a smile and held her hand intimately.
Mu Yuan's first reaction to her familiar approach was some resistance.
I wanted to pull my hand back, but then I thought it was impolite, so I held back: "Hello, Miss Tang."
Theoretically, the two of them are 'rivals in love'.
But the way Don Nana enthusiastically pulled her to sit down didn't show any hostility at all.
Tang Nana's eyes curved charmingly as she said in a sweet voice, "I was a little sad that I couldn't get through to you this morning. I didn't expect you to call me back."
Mu Yuan: "Sorry, my phone was charging this morning and I didn't hear the call, but I want to ask, how did you know my number?"
Donna chuckled: "It's not difficult."
So it was given by Huo Min?
"Excuse me, what is it that brings you to me?"
Don Nana handed her a cup of black tea. She took a sip and her mouth was full of the flavor of essence. It was so unpalatable that she simply held the tea in her hand.
Tang Nana said sincerely, "I want to apologize to you in person."
Mu Yuan's eyes were slightly stunned: "Apologize?"
"Although this is the first time we meet, I think you know about the relationship between Ah Min and me."
Mu Yuan caught the word "once" in her words.
Does that mean they haven't gotten back together yet?
The next second, she said, "Don't get me wrong. After I knew Ah Min married you, I only interacted with him as a friend, but the media always likes to spread rumors. I feel guilty towards you. You are obviously his real wife, but the outside world only knows about me and keeps spreading rumors. It makes you feel uncomfortable. I am sorry that our relationship hurt you."
Mu Yuan was confused. It seemed that Tang Nana didn't know that her marriage with Huo Min was fake.
Huo Min didn't tell her?
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes flashed with thought, and she probed, "Miss Tang, if you ask me out like this, aren't you afraid that I'll suspect you of seducing Huo Min and come after you?"
Tang Nana smiled and said, "You wouldn't. If you wanted to settle accounts with me, you would have come a long time ago. How could I have allowed rumors to fly all over the place for so many years?"
Mu Yuan didn't respond.
"It's tiring to be with a man whose heart isn't with you, isn't it?"
Mu Yuan remained quiet, but that didn't stop her from justifying herself.
"To be honest, although I've decided to be friends with Ah Min, I've discovered that we can't forget each other."
Donna squeezed her wrist tightly, as if she were a close friend with whom she could talk.
Vulnerability appeared on her beautiful face. "I know my request is shameless, but he and I love each other. I want to ask you to fulfill our wish. Your existence makes us both suffer."
After hearing this, Mu Yuan was almost certain that the mobile phone number was not given by Huo Min.
As for how Don Nana got it, it is unknown.
She thought about it for a long time, but she still didn't know what role she should start with.
"You are still young, talented, and beautiful. You will meet someone better. Instead of staying with a man who doesn't love you, why don't you cut the Gordian knot and strive for a better life for yourself?"
Even the 8 o'clock TV shows wouldn't dare to act like this.
The mistress comes to the house and persuades the original wife to divorce, encouraging her to let go of everything and pursue a happy new life.
How dare she.
Seeing that she didn't move.
Tang Nana continued to persuade her, "Do you know that this VIP room is only open to me? In this luxury store where even purchases require capital verification, Huo Min made me the best here. Not only that, as long as it's anything I want, even the rarest gems, he's willing to spend huge sums of money to auction it off to make me smile. And he hasn't done these things for you, right? Miss Mu, don't you understand that he doesn't love you?"
Mu Yuan thought to herself: If he loves me, that would be crazy.
She now understood the other party's intention.
"Forcing the emperor to abdicate" by pleading for mercy.
The problem was that Huo Min hadn't issued any instructions, and she couldn't make decisions on her own without going through her employer.
Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one.
She put the slightly cold black tea in her hand back on the table with disgust.
She stood up, her almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed. "I'm sorry, I think Huo Min should talk to me personally about this matter. I'm very busy. Next time if you have something to say, you can just tell me over the phone. Forget about meeting. Goodbye."
She slipped away quickly, automatically ignoring Don Nana's voice calling her.
The agent walked out from behind the curtain, paused the video recording, and frowned: "Nana, look at her, it seems that even if she doesn't love him, she will still hold on to Mr. Huo and won't let go. And you see she is calm and composed, and she didn't make a fuss after knowing your intentions. I recorded this video in vain. It seems that she is a rival."
Tang Nana's beautiful eyes were filled with coldness and hardness: "She has Zhao Keqiong's support behind her, so of course she's calm."
"That's right. Wasn't it Zhao Keqiong who forced Mr. Huo to marry her? But why did Zhao Keqiong choose her? She is of such an ordinary status, neither rich nor noble."
Tang Nana sneered: "His status is ordinary, but he is not ordinary."
On the surface, she looks aloof and indifferent to worldly affairs, but in reality, she is secretly using some trick to seduce Huo Min.
The thought of her unexpectedly seeing that Huo Min's empty photo album was full of photos of Mu Yuan made her feel a little sad.
Don Nana's face became increasingly gloomy.
She underestimated the enemy.
After leaving the mall, Mu Yuan found a place to sit down by the grass.
The strong aroma in the VIP room gave her a headache, but the smell of nature was still the best.
She held her phone, deleting and reducing messages in the chat box, thinking about how to briefly describe what happened today.
A message came from the other side without any warning:
Writing a paper?
It scared her.
The next second, she saw a restaurant location.
He said: [Come here, now]
