Chapter 194: Traffickers are trying to kidnap children!
After moving, Mu Nanyan felt a lot more relaxed. Now she no longer had to get up early every day.
She only needs to get up in the morning and make breakfast for Chenchen. Chenchen's school is relatively close, and he now goes to school by himself. Mu Nanyan offered to take him there, but he refused.
After watching Chenchen go out, Mu Nanyan could leisurely drink a cup of hand-brewed coffee and then drive to the studio.
Mu Nanyan has been very busy recently and often gets off work at around six or seven in the afternoon. Fortunately, Cui Hao is on vacation to adjust to the time difference and has taken the initiative to take care of Chenchen.
Cui Hao picked up Chenchen from school, and then the two of them went to the supermarket to buy groceries and cook. Every night when Mu Nanyan returned home, she would go to Cui Hao's house to eat and drink, which made her feel embarrassed.
And Lu Yiran never appeared in front of Mu Nanyan again after the quarrel that night.
Mu Nanyan guessed that Lu Yiran had returned to the capital. After all, he was the president of Dingsheng, so how could he stay in Haicheng all the time? She didn't take what Lu Yiran said before to heart, and her life returned to normal.
However, the peaceful days did not last long, because Mu Nanyan suddenly discovered that the residents next door were moving.
When she first moved in, she said hello to her neighbors. There was a couple living opposite who had lived here for several years and no one knew why they suddenly wanted to move.
Because they were not very familiar with each other, Mu Nanyan did not ask too many questions, but just watched them moving things in and out every day.
After that family moved out, renovations began across the street. Every morning when she left the house, there were workers squatting in the corridor eating breakfast.
As soon as she returned home in the afternoon, the workers saw her and immediately organized people to leave.
Mu Nanyan actually had some good feelings towards this new neighbor. She had often seen online reports of renovations disturbing neighbors, but she had no such concerns at all.
Mu Nanyan originally thought that the renovation next door would take at least two or three months, but she didn't expect that after only ten days, the sound of electric drilling and hammering completely disappeared.
What made her feel even more puzzled was that during the entire renovation period, this mysterious new neighbor never showed up.
In the elevator early in the morning, she couldn't help but ask the property manager:
"Did the owner of 2302 go abroad? He didn't even come to supervise the renovations?"
The butler smiled hesitantly,
"Well... the owner specifically instructed that the acceptance should wait until the entire project is completed."
Mu Nanyan raised her eyebrows. How brave must one be to hand over the new house entirely to the construction team?
She thought of the imported oak floors she had glimpsed in the hallway last week, and the Italian lamps that the workers had carefully carried.
If you encounter a black-hearted decoration team, these materials alone may be replaced several times.

A few weeks later, when Mu Nanyan returned home from get off work, she found that the door opposite, which was always open, was tightly closed today.
At this time of year in the past, the door was always half open for ventilation, but now it was suddenly closed, which surprised her a little.
"A new neighbor moved in?"
She stood in the corridor, hesitating whether to say hello.
But then he thought it would be a bit rude to come to the house so rashly, so he looked away and unlocked the door with his fingerprint to enter.
It was a rare day that she got off work early, so she decided to make something delicious for Chenchen and bake some small cakes to send to her new neighbor later.
I just don't know if the other person is a man or a woman, or what their personality is like...
She put on an apron and started busying herself in the kitchen.
The cake base in the oven gradually expanded, and the sweet fragrance filled the whole house. At this moment, the sound of fingerprint unlocking came from outside the door, followed by a burst of brisk footsteps.
"Sister Yan! Why are you back so early today?"
Chenchen was like a happy little bird. As soon as he entered the door, he flew over and hugged her legs, looking up at her with his eyes sparkling.
Mu Nanyan smiled and rubbed his hair:
"There's nothing to do at the company today, so I let everyone go home early. Are you hungry? I baked you a little cake."
"Yes! I haven't had the little cakes made by Sister Yan for a long time!"
Chenchen cheered and stood on tiptoe impatiently to look at the cooking table.
Mu Nanyan took a cupcake out of the oven and handed it to him. Chenchen took it and took a big bite. His cheeks bulged like a little hamster.
Halfway through eating, he suddenly stopped, looked at Mu Nanyan and said:
"Sister Yan, is there someone living next door to us? I seemed to hear some noise over there when I came in just now."
"I think so. I'll go over with some cake and say hello later."
Chenchen volunteered and raised his hand, his eyes shining:
"Sister Yan, let me go. I can help you deliver it!"
Mu Nanyan looked at his eagerness to try and couldn't help laughing:
"You go by yourself? Can you do that?"
"Don't worry, I'm sure there will be no problem."
Chenchen puffed out his chest, looking confident. Mu Nanyan couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm, so she found an exquisite paper box, put a few freshly baked cakes in it, and handed it to him:
"Then go ahead. Remember to be polite and don't be rash."
"I know!"
Chenchen took the box, ran out of the door excitedly, stood on tiptoe to turn the door handle, and ran into the corridor.
He stood in front of the door of 2302, trying to tiptoe to ring the doorbell, but unfortunately he was too short to reach it, so he had to raise his hand and knock on the door.
“Dongdongdong——”
Soon, the sound of slippers rubbing against the floor came from inside the house, coming closer and closer.
The door opened, and Chenchen's eyes first fell on a pair of dark gray men's slippers.
He smiled and said crisply:
"Hello uncle! I'm the neighbor next door. My mom made a cake and asked me to deliver it..."
Halfway through his words, his eyes slowly moved up along the other person's pajamas, and finally met a familiar face.
Chenchen froze instantly, the smile frozen on his face. The next second, he turned around and ran without saying a word!
"Little guy, why are you running?"
A deep male voice sounded behind him, with a hint of ridicule.
"Aren't you here to deliver the cake?"
Before Chenchen could run far away, a large hand grabbed his collar from behind. He kicked his legs and struggled, shouting angrily:
"You stinky bastard! I won't let you eat the cake that Mommy made!"
Lu Yiran's face was full of black lines, but he still lowered his head and smelled himself. How could he smell bad? He had just taken a shower.
Seeing that the little guy was getting more and more violent, if he continued like this, Mu Nanyan would definitely be lured out.
Lu Yiran simply picked up Chenchen, turned around and went into the house, closing the door with a "bang".
"Ah—help! Traffickers are trying to kidnap children!"
Chenchen fluttered in his arms, waving his little hands wildly, but carefully protecting the cake box in his arms, for fear of dropping it.
Lu Yiran was given a headache by his noise and said helplessly:
"Stop shouting! I'll really sell you out if you keep shouting."
Chenchen immediately shut up, widened his eyes, and looked alert.
The corridor fell silent again, leaving only the faint sounds of negotiation coming from the door of 2302...
