Chapter 307: Was there a woman holding down your hand?
Mu Nanyan stared at the phone screen in a daze, her fingertips trembling slightly, until the phone vibrated again, she pressed the answer button as if waking up from a dream.
"What's wrong? Did a woman hold your hand down? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?"
Chu Ci's familiar teasing voice came from the receiver, with his usual cynicism.
Mu Nanyan's pupils shrank slightly. She was very familiar with this voice. It was indeed Tang Yutong's boyfriend Chu Ci.
But why did he know Lu Yiran? When they met yesterday, he pretended not to know each other...
On the other end of the phone, Chu Ci saw that no one responded and continued indifferently:
"What are you doing? You were just replying to messages, and you've lost contact in the blink of an eye? Could it be that you're really with a woman? Let me guess, the only person who can make you not even answer the phone is Mu Nanyan."
Mu Nanyan's fingers tightened unconsciously. Chu Ci not only knew her, but also knew about her relationship with Lu Yiran?
But yesterday at Supreme International, he clearly acted like a stranger...
"Hello? Yiran?"
Chu Ci's voice brought her thoughts back to reality. At this moment, Mu Nanyan's mind was blank. She didn't know how to react, so she simply hung up the phone.
Just as she put the phone back to its place, she heard Chenchen's cheerful voice:
"Sister Yan!"
Mu Nanyan looked up and saw Lu Yiran walking towards her from the corner of the corridor holding Chenchen's hand.
"Sister Yan, what's wrong with you?"
Chenchen tilted his head, his big black eyes full of confusion.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiran also looked at Mu Nanyan, but saw that her expression was normal, except that her eyelashes trembled slightly.
He raised his eyebrows in confusion, not understanding why Chenchen asked that.
"I'm fine."
Mu Nanyan curled the corners of her lips and reached out to rub Chenchen's soft head. Her voice was soft, but with a hint of imperceptible tension.
The waiter came over to serve the dishes at the right time, temporarily breaking the delicate atmosphere.
During the meal, Mu Nanyan looked at Lu Yiran with an inquiring look from time to time.
Lu Yiran naturally noticed Mu Nanyan's gaze. He was quite puzzled as to why Mu Nanyan kept looking at him. Was there something on his face?
After dinner, Mu Nanyan took Chenchen's hand and walked out of Ruifu Garden. The autumn wind blew through her hair, but it couldn't blow away the doubts lingering in her heart.
"Sister Yan, the squirrel fish tonight is delicious!"
Chenchen tilted his little face up, with a little sweet and sour sauce on the corner of his mouth.
Mu Nanyan subconsciously took out a tissue and wiped him gently, but her eyes unconsciously drifted towards the tall figure behind her.
Lu Yiran put his hands in his pockets and followed the two of them slowly. He looked at them with a faint smile on his lips.
Mu Nanyan looked calm as she took Chenchen's hand and walked straight to the parking lot. Chenchen got into the back seat obediently and fastened his seat belt skillfully.
After seeing Chenchen fasten his seat belt, Mu Nanyan got directly into the driver's seat. She was about to fasten her own seat belt when she caught a glimpse of the passenger door being opened out of the corner of her eye.
Lu Yiran took a long step and sat down as a matter of course.
"I have to go back to the apartment too, so we can go together."
He spoke lightly, his slender fingers casually resting on his knees, as if this was the most natural thing.
Mu Nanyan's fingertips gripping the steering wheel tightened slightly, but she didn't say anything in the end. The engine hummed softly and the car drove steadily into the street.
Seeing that Mu Nanyan didn't say a word of rebuttal and just agreed, Lu Yiran felt a little surprised, but then it turned into unconcealable joy.
He glanced sideways, and her profile, as she concentrated on driving, looked particularly calm in the dim light of the dashboard, and her thick eyelashes cast a small shadow on her lower eyelid.
How could he know that the sudden phone call had already caused a storm in her heart.
Just like the street scene rapidly receding outside the car window at this moment, once some emotions pass by, it is difficult to return to the original calm.
