Chapter 309 Why did you open the door without wearing any clothes?
Mu Nanyan stood in front of the door of 2302, her fingertips hovering above the doorbell button for a slight pause, and finally pressed it.
“Ding Dong——”
The crisp ring of the doorbell echoed in the corridor. She waited for a moment, but there was no movement from the other side.
"Didn't you just come back? Did you go out again?"
She whispered to herself, her brows furrowed unconsciously.
She pressed the doorbell twice more, this time with a little more force.
“Ding Dong—Ding Dong—”
Before the doorbell rang, the door lock in front of me suddenly made a light "click".
The gap in the door gradually widened, and steaming hot air rushed out first, mixed with the faint scent of cedar shower gel.
Mu Nanyan's gaze suddenly fell upon a wheat-colored chest.
The water droplets slid down his well-defined abdominal muscles and finally disappeared into the loose bath towel around his waist.
She took a breath and turned around suddenly:
"W-why are you opening the door without any clothes on?"
Lu Yiran wiped his hair with a towel in one hand, water droplets splashing, and looked at her with the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously:
"I did want to, but you didn't even give me a chance. You rang the doorbell so urgently, I thought it was a fire inspection."
"Why am I in such a hurry?"
She retorted subconsciously, but the tips of her ears honestly turned even redder. The low chuckle coming from behind her made her wish she could find a hole to crawl into.
Seeing that she couldn't help being amused, Lu Yiran's smile grew wider and wider. Then he looked at Mu Nanyan's back and said:
"Why did you come here suddenly? Did you miss me?"
Lu Yiran's voice was very pleasant, with a lazy after-shower tone.
I miss you so much!
Mu Nanyan wanted to refute her, but she did have something to ask Lu Yiran. She turned her back to Lu Yiran and pretended to be calm.
"Don't be so self-indulgent. Go put on your clothes first. I have something to ask you."
Lu Yiran stepped aside to make way for her and said to her, "You come in first. I'll go back to the bedroom to change clothes."
She hesitated for a moment, thinking of Chenchen who might come out at any time... and this was indeed not the person she was talking to. In the end, Mu Nanyan compromised:
"You go in first, I...I'll come right after."
"Is it that serious? It's not like I haven't seen it before." Lu Yiran deliberately lowered his voice.
"What nonsense are you talking about! When did I…"
She turned around suddenly, but was suddenly speechless when she met his smiling eyes.
That ridiculous night five years ago suddenly popped into her mind, making her breath catch.
Lu Yiran suddenly took a step closer, and his moist, hot breath brushed past her ear:
"Do you need me to help you recall? That night you clearly..."
"Shut up!"
Mu Nanyan covered his mouth in panic, and felt a soft touch on her palm.
The two of them were so close that he could count his eyelashes, and the air was filled with ambiguity.
At this moment, she suddenly felt something warm touching her palm.
"You! Lu Yiran!"
When Mu Nanyan reacted, her hand retracted instantly as if it had been electrocuted. She also took several steps back, keeping a distance from Lu Yiran, and glared at him with shame and anger.
The man laughed like a cat stealing fish, and his abdominal muscles under the bath towel trembled slightly with his laughter:
"What's wrong with me? Since you've taken the initiative, why shouldn't I show some appreciation?"
Mu Nanyan rolled her eyes at him and pursed her red lips.
She could see that although Lu Yiran hadn't improved in other abilities over the years, he had become so thick-skinned that he was invulnerable to swords and guns.
If she said anything more, this man would probably take advantage of her right there and then.
Seeing Mu Nanyan suddenly silent, the smile on Lu Yiran's lips froze.
He was keenly aware of the sudden drop in temperature in the air, and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously.
He quickly put away his teasing expression, and his voice was filled with rare tension:
"I'm going to change my clothes. You... go sit in the living room first."
After Lu Yiran finished speaking, he went straight in. Mu Nanyan looked at his back as he left and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She stood at the door until she heard Lu Yiran's footsteps getting farther and farther away, then she walked in and closed the door.
"Wake up, Mu Nanyan."
She muttered to herself, pinched her palm lightly with her nails, and forced herself to calm down.
She came here today to find out the truth, not to accompany Lu Yiran to relive the past.
The leather sofa made a slight sound as she sat down.
Mu Nanyan straightened her back, folded her hands on her knees, and even the curve of her raised chin revealed her businesslike distance.
Those who didn’t know would think that Mu Nanyan was going to discuss a multi-billion dollar project.
With a "click", the door of the master bedroom opened.
This was the scene Lu Yiran saw when he walked out wearing a dark grey sweater.
He paused slightly, and his fingers on the door handle unconsciously tightened.
His heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and he had a bad feeling. He was too familiar with Mu Nanyan like this. When they were going through the divorce process at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Mu Nanyan also looked at him with such cold eyes when she signed the divorce agreement.
