Chapter 12: The real daughter doesn't want to work hard anymore

Mingnan was half asleep, not fully awake yet, as if he had been awakened from a dream. He was not on guard when he saw the person standing beside the bed. He just called out in a hoarse voice, "Mu Yanshan? What are you doing?"

Mu Yanshan picked up the phone and put it on the bedside table, coaxing her in a low voice: "Go to sleep, I'll turn off the lights."

"oh."

Mingnan muttered something, closed his eyelids again, buried his face in the pillow, and fell into a deep sleep again.

Mu Yanshan lowered his eyes and stared at her sleeping face for a while. The familiar scent of shower gel floated in the air, the same scent as his.

He raised his hand and stopped, then dropped it and raised it again. He gently grabbed the corner of the quilt and pulled it up to cover her shoulders.

Finally, he turned off the light and closed the door quietly.

Mingnan slept very soundly this time. After waking up, he completely forgot what happened last night. He went downstairs and calmly greeted Mu Yanshan.

Mu Yanshan nodded. "Breakfast? I ordered takeout."

The restaurant was filled with the aroma of steamed buns and porridge. Mingnan walked over and sat down. In front of him was a bowl of tofu pudding, a small plate of steamed buns, and a bowl of spinach and lean meat porridge. There were also fried dough sticks and shrimp dumplings in the bag.

"Buy so much?" Mingnan picked up the spoon and scooped some porridge to drink.

Mu Yanshan ate the buns slowly, "I didn't know what you liked, so I bought a little of everything."

"I'm not picky about food. I can accept anything except ginger."

"Okay, I'll remember that."

Mingnan paused while drinking the porridge.

【What's so memorable about this? 】

Mu Yanshan finished his buns and drank some soy milk. "Have you seen any houses?"

"I was just about to tell you that I've found a house I'm looking at this afternoon. If it's suitable, I'll make a deal."

"Let me take you there. I have nothing to do today."

Once a person's bottom line is broken, it will never come back.

Mingnan tried to refuse once, but Mu Yanshan was very persistent, and then she compromised.

I've lived in the same room before, so it doesn't seem unacceptable to give it a ride.

So, when Mu Yanshan's car stopped at the gate of the community, the homeowner didn't dare to recognize it for a moment. It was only when Mingnan leaned out and waved his hand at her that she dared to confirm it.

The landlord led the two into the community and couldn't help but take another look at Mu Yanshan's car. He asked hesitantly, "Why do you rent a house from me when you drive such a nice car?"

Mingnan smiled calmly: "The car is his, and the house is rented by me."

The owner looked at her and then at Mu Yanshan, his eyes sparkling with a look of sudden enlightenment, "I understand."

Mingnan: “?”

[Why do I feel something is strange? ]

Mu Yanshan turned his head and laughed briefly, "We are friends."

Homeowner: “I understand. I understand.”

Mingnan: “…”

The owner seems unreliable, but the house is really nice. It has all the furniture and appliances, the bathroom is clean, and the master bedroom has good lighting and ventilation.

The most important thing is that the location here is good and the community security is very strict. Mingnan was very satisfied and immediately signed a contract with the landlord and paid the money.

On the way back, Mingnan thought about the car and found it funny.

Mu Yanshan glanced at her sideways, "What are you laughing at?"

Mingnan shook his head. "Let me treat you to a meal as a reward for taking me in last night and riding in your car today."

"Again?" Mu Yanshan pushed his glasses and asked teasingly, "Is the salary enough?"

Mingnan was silent for a moment. After a moment, she sat up straight and said seriously, "Next month."

Mu Yanshan laughed softly.

Mingnan's earlobes felt slightly hot. He turned his head and stared out the window without saying a word.

After returning, Mu Yanshan made another trip and brought Mingnan and her antique suitcase over.

The two said goodbye in the cool evening breeze. Mingnan stood at the window and watched Mu Yanshan come out of the corridor. He waved to him and said, "Thank you, bye!"

Mu Yanshan looked back in the wind, his hair was a little messy, covering his eyebrows and eyes. Mingnan couldn't see his expression clearly, but he waved to him and said loudly: "Goodbye, Mingnan."

It was rare for someone to call her name so formally. Mingnan's heart trembled and she stopped waving her hand.

She lay by the window, her hair blown by the wind, revealing her smooth forehead and beautiful eyes.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her face, and she was glowing from her profile to her hair.

The sunset and she became the most striking highlight of this autumn evening.

Mu Yanshan couldn't help it, he took out his mobile phone and took a picture of this scene after getting in the car.

Taking secret photos is shameful, but if you miss such beautiful scenery, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

So he sent a copy of this photo to Mingnan.

Mingnan was stunned when he saw it and didn't even recognize that it was himself in the photo.

The photo is pretty nice.

She replied: [Thank you, photographer Mu, I accept it.]

Mingnan: [Cat high five.jpg]

Muyanshan: [Little cat high five.jpg]

Looking at the little cat in the pink princess dress and thinking about Mu Yanshan's tall back, Mingnan couldn't help laughing. When he turned around, he began to think about what to treat him to next month.

Weekends are as fleeting as years, while weekends are gone in the blink of an eye.

After moving to a new house, the commuting time became longer, so Tang Su was already there when Mingnan arrived.

As soon as she saw Mingnan, she asked her about her date.

"How's it going? Are you happy? Are you going to eat or watch a movie?"

Mingnan picked up the fountain and said seriously, "I really don't have a date. I just invited ordinary friends to dinner."

Tang Su: “Oh~”

Tang Su just liked gossiping, but she knew her limits. After hearing Mingnan say that, she didn't ask any further questions and helped her to sort out the new flowers.

Ming Nan had just counted the flowers when he caught a glimpse of someone outside the door. He looked up and met Ming Huaishu's gaze.

Ming Huaishu's eyes lit up, "Ming Nan!"

Tang Su took a step back and looked, "Someone you know?"

"Yeah, he's my friend."

Ming Huaishu pushed the door open and came in, looking her up and down, and said in surprise: "You have changed so much, I didn't recognize you outside just now."

"Because my mood is different now, I feel relaxed and free now." Mingnan moved a chair to her. "Why are you here?"

Ming Huaishu sat down, hesitating to speak, "I heard from Gu Huaichi that you were working here, so I came to see you."

Then she took out a card from her bag and gave it to her, "This is a little gift from me, take it."

Mingnan was surprised, "No, you don't owe me anything."

She reached out and pushed it back.

Ming Huaishu handed it over again, "No, I will feel uneasy if you don't accept it."

Mingnan pushed back: "But you were still young at that time, and you couldn't make the decision."

Ming Huaishu shook his head: "But I'm not a child anymore. It's true that I owe you. I've occupied your life, but I can't say so calmly and generously that I'll give it back to you. I'm still in school and can't leave home. I'll move out when I have a stable job."

The two of them were pushing and pulling each other like this, and if you didn't know, you would think they were arguing.

"I know. I'm on my way to the restaurant. I'll be there soon—"

A man walked and talked on the phone, glancing impatiently to the side of the road.

As a result, this glance made him stunned. He stood there and watched Mingnan and Ming Huaishu shoving each other through the glass window. Mingnan frowned, looking serious and a little fierce, and it seemed that he had the upper hand.

The man suddenly came to his senses, "Fuck, you don't know what I saw, I'm hanging up now!"

After hanging up the phone, he picked up his phone and took a few pictures of the two of them, then took a picture of the store sign, then immediately sent the pictures to his friends group.
