Chapter 227 Humanity cannot stand the test
Meng Anran snorted and reluctantly forgave him.
The more Qin Mu looked at An Xiaoran, the more he felt that she was so cute. She was already 23 years old, but she was still as innocent and beautiful as when she was 2 years old.
He pinched her face and got back to the point: "Tomorrow at the board meeting, Zhuo Cheng will officially take up the position of president of Yunduan Group. I'll have a lot more free time. Leave the Hot Wheels matter to me. You don't have to work so hard."
Meng Anran seemed very surprised. She had only heard Qin Mu mention that he wanted to step down, but he never told her the specific progress.
I didn't expect everything to be arranged so quickly.
"No, it's not a big deal." She took another bite of the super spicy chicken wing, unwilling to give in. This time she was a little more used to it, but still felt a sharp pain from the spiciness. She said with a red nose:
"Qin Yan just returned to China. When you have free time, spend more time with her and take her out for a walk. Since she has decided to stay in China to develop her career, you still need to let her get familiar with Beijing as soon as possible."
"Okay, just let me know if you need me." Qin Mu sighed secretly. His An Xiaoran was still strong and stubborn.
As he handed her the sour plum soup, he asked, "I thought you wouldn't take action this time. Although this matter is troublesome, it is also a test for your uncle."
Meng Anran took a sip from the bowl, and her tongue, aching from the spiciness, finally felt a bit better. She said calmly, "I don't like testing human nature, because... I know human nature can't stand the test."
Qin Mu was silent for a moment, as if he agreed with what she said.
After being in the circle of fame and fortune for a long time, I have seen all kinds of faces. In their eyes, human nature is the most fragile and distorted thing.
On the way back, Meng Anran looked at the neon lights flashing outside the window and suddenly said, "Qin Mu."
"Um?"
"Thank you." She said softly, "You are the only one who has been with me, supporting me, and protecting me all these years."
Qin Mu pulled his eyes away and looked over. "Are you suddenly becoming sentimental?"
If you don't know, you would think she has a terminal illness.
Meng Anran turned her head and smiled at him, "I just want to tell you that you are unique to me and no one can replace you."
Qin Mu's heart skipped a beat, and the corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably.
He took back what he had said about An Xiaoran being insensitive to emotions. She was more considerate and attentive than he had imagined and could see through his emotions.
Qin Mu held Meng Anran's hand, and the warmth of their interlocked fingers conveyed unconditional trust.
"You are my only one, so be careful when you are out there and don't give other people of the opposite sex the chance to take advantage of you."
"Okay." Meng Anran's eyes curved, "I will take good care of your girlfriend."
The car stopped in front of the Meng family villa, and Qin Mu walked around to the passenger seat to open the door. Meng Anran got out of the car holding the flowers, but he grabbed her wrist.
"Goodnight kiss." He asked for it confidently.
Under the moonlight, his eyes and eyebrows were particularly gentle. Meng Anran stood on tiptoe and gently touched his lips.
Just as she was about to pull away, he grabbed the back of her head and deepened the kiss.
Only when both of them were breathing unsteadily did Qin Mu reluctantly let her go.
"See you tomorrow." He leaned his forehead against hers, his voice hoarse.
Meng Anran nodded with a red face, turned and walked towards the house.
Qin Mu's voice came from behind: "An Xiaoran."
She looked back.
The boy stood by the car, smiling wantonly and gently: "I love you so much."
These three simple words made her blush from her ears to her neck, but her heart felt as sweet as if it were soaked in honey.
She smiled lightly and brightly, and responded, "I know."
…
The next morning, Meng Anran was woken up by Meng Chenghong knocking on the door.
It had been a long time since Meng Anran was woken up by her brother. She suddenly opened the door and looked at the boy who was half a head taller than her and was smiling brightly. She sighed secretly and had no temper at all.
"Second sister, I have my final exam the day after tomorrow. Can you take me out to play after the exam?" Meng Chenghong squeezed into the room, sat down at the desk, and stared at his sister expectantly like a big puppy.
"Where do you want to go?" Meng Anran tidied the bed and went into the bathroom to wash up.
Meng Chenghong followed him again and leaned against the bathroom door, "I want to visit him on the set. He's been an actor for so long, and I haven't even been to see him on set yet."
"Then why don't you just tell him and ask him to take you there?" Meng Anran slurred his words, "My schedule is quite full, so I may not be free by then."
"But I want to follow you." Meng Chenghong curled his lips. Ever since the last incident, he has always felt guilty and felt that he knew too little about his second sister.
He wanted to spend more time with his second sister, so that he might be able to better understand what kind of person she was, what she liked and what she hated.
He asked, "Second sister, can you take me with you? I promise to be a good boy and won't disturb you at work."
What he said was just like when he was a kid and insisted on going shopping with Meng Anran, holding her hand and swearing that he would be obedient and never run around.
Meng Anran spat out the foam in her mouth, looked at the boy standing behind her through the mirror, then quickly looked away and lowered her head to wash her face.
He casually said, "I finally have a long vacation. Why don't you go on a date with your girlfriend? What's so fun about following me?"
"I just want to see what your work is like. I don't follow you every day, so why don't you take me with you when it's convenient for you?" Meng Chenghong pleaded relentlessly, as if he would keep nagging if Meng Anran didn't agree today.
Meng Anran sighed softly and finally relented: "You can come with me to Country A for the art exhibition next week. Forget about other occasions. You won't understand business matters."
Meng Chenghong's puppy eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Okay! I will definitely not cause any trouble for you!"
When the brother and sister went downstairs, Su Wanman had already prepared a sumptuous breakfast.
Maybe because she was a little greasy after eating barbecue last night, Meng Anran had no appetite for breakfast. She only had a bowl of millet porridge and sipped it in small sips.
After eating half a bowl, he put down his spoon and said, "Dad, Mom, if you are not busy today, why don't you go out on a date and watch a movie? Just think of it as a way to relax."
Meng Rong's face was grimacing. The series of incidents he'd been facing recently had made the fine lines around his eyes more pronounced. He looked up at Meng Anran, "Anran, isn't this too much for you? With all the public opinion going on right now, it's hard for you to handle it, isn't it?"
He lowered his head and sighed, then continued, "If it really doesn't work, there's no need to force it. Dad is in his prime, and at worst, he can just spend a few more years starting over."
Meng Anran chuckled comfortingly and said, "Dad, you just don't believe in my ability. Don't worry, there will be good news soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Anran received a WeChat message from Situ Huajian.
Among them are two electronic documents, one is a detailed inspection report of the tires of the accident vehicle, and the other is a detailed list of raw materials purchased by Dingfeng Group in the past three years.
Meng Anran curled her lips and smiled, it really was what she wanted.
