Chapter 19 Teacher and Sister-in-law
Wenxi envied her grandparents' love, but she knew it was something she couldn't find. Her first relationship had ended so tragically, and now she didn't want to dwell on it. She just wanted to work with Mu Yansen to perform well this year, so she could earn enough money to buy a house and live a good life.
Looking at the man in front of me who was concentrating on driving, his profile was so handsome. I wonder which girl stole his heart and didn't cherish it. Back then, he must have been waiting for the girl he liked at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
"Mr. Mu, do you like that girl very much? The girl you want to marry."
Mu Yansen's eyes instantly froze, "Miss Wen, this is not something you should ask!"
Wenxi quickly covered his mouth. That was his favorite, his Achilles' heel, and he couldn't ask about it.
Wenxi thought, how much must he like her? Even asking is useless.
Never mind. She was just asking out of boredom. She didn't care. As long as she could get the money in a year, that was enough. Thinking of the 20 million, her mood instantly brightened. 20 million, how many bags would it take? I'd be a multi-millionaire!
The two returned to Huating Villa in silence.
The next day at Taekwondo class, Wenxi noticed that Mu Yanlin was listless. Well, he'd been listless for a while.
"The rest of the students are dismissed. Mu Yanlin will stay for a moment."
Mu Yanlin was stunned.
After the other classmates left, Wenxi walked up to him and patted his shoulder. This big boy was taller than her.
"Mu Yanlin, have you been under too much pressure recently? You haven't been active in class these past few times, and your movements aren't quite right. Is there anything you can tell me about? Maybe I can help you. Even if I can't, it's good to have someone to talk to."
Wenxi had already found an excuse for him, so he just said, "The college entrance exam is coming up soon, and I'm a little stressed."
He couldn't say that he was depressed because she became his sister-in-law.
Wenxi suddenly realized, "Oh, you're already in your third year of high school, and you're about to take the college entrance exam. It's normal to feel stressed."
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even though your brother is very good, you don't have to be like him."
Mu Yanlin: “…”
Teacher Wen's words of comfort didn't seem to be any comfort at all. His brother was an extraordinary person.
"I don't try to match my brother's level. He's not just any guy. He skipped several grades in school and won countless awards. No one else dared to hope for first place in any competition he entered. After starting work, he took the group to new heights."
Wenxi couldn't help but worship, "Oh great god! How can there be such a heaven-defying person!"
Mu Yanlin curled his lips, as if he had accidentally helped his elder brother promote himself.
"You're not bad either. You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Even if you don't study hard, your future life will be free and easy."
"That's right. My brother owns the group, so I don't have to inherit it. I can do what I like."
"Well, you're very happy. Just do what you like. So, don't put so much pressure on yourself. Relax and do what you should do. Leave the rest to time. You'll know the results in two months."
Mu Yanlin smiled, "I understand, Teacher Wen."
He couldn't call her sister-in-law. Wenxi didn't care about his address, because she and his brother were not real anyway.
"How are you going back?"
"The driver is waiting at the door."
"Okay, then you go back. I'm off work too."
When he reached the door, Mu Yanlin suddenly remembered something and ran back.
"Teacher Wen, please come with me. I'll ask the driver to give you a ride."
The eldest brother didn’t know what was going on. He made Teacher Wen take the bus every day and didn’t even provide her with a car. It’s not like their family can’t afford one.
Wenxi thought that Huating Villa was not close and was located in a villa area, so it was inconvenient to take the bus and it would take a long time every time, so she agreed.
Arriving at Huating Villa, Wenxi opened the door and got out of the car, waving to Mu Yanlin, "Goodbye, Mu Yanlin, thank you for bringing me back."
Mu Yanlin smiled gently, "Teacher Wen, we are family, you don't have to be polite to me."
"Okay, I won't be polite with you." Then he closed the car door.
Mu Yansen stood in front of the French window on the second floor, looking at Wenxi getting out of the car at the old house, feeling a little surprised.
Wenxi decided to cook a bowl of noodles after entering the villa. She didn't eat dinner out today, and she didn't inform Sister Zhao that she would be back for dinner. If she did, Sister Zhao would prepare a whole table, and it would be a waste if she couldn't finish it.
Just as she was about to enter the kitchen, Sister Zhao came over and refused to let her cook anything. Finally, Wenxi gave in and let Sister Zhao cook for her, repeatedly urging her to just cook a bowl of noodles. She came up to take a shower first.
Just as I opened the bedroom door, the door of the master bedroom opened. Mu Yansen came out holding a cup of water. When he saw Wen Xi, he stopped.
Wenxi greeted: "Mr. Mu, you are back."
"Um."
"I'll go in first."
Mu Yansen called her: "Did you come back in the car from the old house?"
"Well, the car from the old house went to pick up Mu Yanlin and brought me back on the way."
"You have a good relationship with Yan Lin?"
Wenxi didn't know what he meant, but she replied, "Before this, we were just an ordinary Taekwondo teacher and student. Now, I'm his sister-in-law in name only. He must be so kind as to give me a ride because I'm his sister-in-law."
Mu Yansen looked at her deeply, wanted to say something but didn't say it, and went downstairs with the cup of water.
Wenxi was a little confused. What did he mean?
After returning to her room and showering, she went downstairs for dinner. Sister Zhao's noodles were incredibly colorful, fragrant, and delicious, with plenty of scallops, a fried egg, and some greens. They were incredibly fresh and delicious, much better than her own.
Wenxi was eating with great relish. When she looked up, she found that Mu Yansen had wandered over and sat opposite her, looking at her with his arms folded.
She stopped and asked, "Has Mr. Mu had dinner?"
"No." He actually ate a little with the client, but seeing how deliciously she ate the noodles, he answered no for some unknown reason.
Wenxi understood. It turned out that he was hungry. Why didn’t he tell him earlier?
"But I've already eaten this bowl. I'll ask Sister Zhao to cook another one for you." After saying that, he put down his chopsticks and ran into the kitchen.
Sister Zhao was very quick and the fragrant noodles were served right away.
Mu Yansen took a bite. Hmm, delicious! Why didn't I realize that Sister Zhao's cooking skills were so good before?
Sister Zhao was thinking, "Young Master called this afternoon and said he wouldn't be home for dinner, but would eat out. But he looked really hungry, and he was enjoying a simple bowl of noodles so much. Well, the food out there must be terrible, smeared with gutter oil, and Young Master wasn't full."
Sister Zhao, your eldest son always stays in six-star hotels. Who would dare to feed him gutter oil? Do you want to die?
Simple noodles, a simple dinner, but the two of us were very satisfied. The gentle atmosphere was strangely warm.
Wenxi thought, even if their relationship was fake, at this moment, her heart was warm, and she was no longer lonely eating instant noodles alone in a rental house.
