Chapter 23: The real daughter doesn't want to work hard anymore

The straight ball caught Mingnan off guard and he was stunned for a while.

And 205 was already buzzing in her head like a screaming chicken.

[Hehe, he's confessed his feelings~ Host, are you going to agree to him? 】

Mingnan ignored it and just stared at the watch that was shining brightly under the light.

Mu Yanshan remained kneeling on one knee, looking up at her expectantly, his eyes gentle and bright, filled with her reflection. Even without saying a word, love was evident in his eyes.

At some point, her heart suddenly lost its rhythm, and Mingnan's breathing became disordered as well. She cleared her throat, looked away as if to avoid him, and muttered, "Are you trying to change the subject? You just forcefully kissed me again and didn't explain clearly, and now you're confessing to me, how do you want me to answer?"

Mu Yanshan held her hand and kissed it gently. "Follow your own heart. You don't need to bear any burden whether you agree or not."

"What if I don't agree?"

Mingnan pursed his lips and looked at him.

Mu Yanshan smiled, pinched her finger bones, and asked softly: "Why don't you assume that you agree?"

Mingnan had a meal.

Without waiting for her answer, or rather without her answering, Mu Yanshan asked himself, "Because you have already put yourself in the position of agreeing, when you make assumptions, you will naturally make the opposite assumptions."

"That's nonsense. Can't you just ask a simple question?"

Mingnan's little trick was exposed, but he still insisted on being stubborn, not wanting Mu Yanshan to be too proud.

Unexpectedly, Mu Yanshan smiled even more happily.

Mingnan was a little annoyed, his face flushed, and he couldn't help but lift his foot and lightly kick his calf, "What are you laughing at?"

"Then why don't you just reject me? Isn't asking a question a form of hesitation?"

His eyes were deep and bright, brighter than the stars on the watch face. The moment he looked into theirs, Mingnan felt that he had nowhere to hide.

205: [Host, may I ask what is the difference between what you two are doing and flirting? ]

Mingnan: [Shut up! ]

She took a deep breath and looked at Mu Yanshan in silence.

After a long while, Mu Yanshan suddenly stood up. Mingnan blinked and asked, "Don't want an answer?"

Mu Yanshan rubbed his knees with a bitter face, "It's numb from kneeling, switch sides."

As he was about to kneel down again, Mingnan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him, showing his fair wrist and said, "Since it's numb, don't kneel anymore."

Mu Yanshan paused, then smiled happily, "Okay."

He took out the watch from the box and carefully put it on Mingnan.

Mingnan couldn't help turning her head as she felt the cool touch on her wrist. The strap of this watch was relatively thick and the dial was also larger than that of ordinary women's watches, making her wrist look slimmer when she wore it.

It was fastened with a "click". Mu Yanshan admired it for a moment and kissed her fingers again, "It looks very good."

Mingnan curled his fingertips and said helplessly, "Are you some kind of kissing freak? How many kisses have you given me in just a short while?"

"I only kissed twice."

Mu Yanshan answered in a serious tone.

Mingnan couldn't help but kick him again.

Mu Yanshan sat down beside her and forcefully squeezed his five fingers into her fingertips. The two watches were placed side by side. They were of the same style but with different star colors, one big and one small, one pink and one blue, almost the same as the watch's promotional poster.

Mingnan's heart moved, and he wanted to take out his mobile phone to take a picture of this scene. However, when he took the phone, the screen lit up and showed an unfamiliar wallpaper.

It’s not like she was a stranger, because she still knew the person on the wallpaper.

There are only her and Mu Yanshan in this family. If the phone is not hers, it must be Mu Yanshan's.

She looked at the people around her in surprise, "Where did you get this photo?"

Mu Yanshan didn't feel guilty at all about being caught. He took the phone, unlocked it in front of Mingnan, turned on the camera, and took a picture of his clenched hands. He thought the picture was good, so he set it as his desktop wallpaper.

Mingnan: “…”

"You are really not polite at all."

"I have a legitimate status now. I'm Miss Ming's boyfriend. Why should I be polite?" Mu Yanshan sent the photo to her via WeChat.

Mingnan's face turned red from being teased. When she heard her cell phone ringing, she quickly pulled her hand back. Only then did she realize that her cell phone was on the shoe cabinet. She had thrown it there together with her bag when she entered the room, as well as Mu Yanshan's glasses.

She took it back and put it on the coffee table, then took out her mobile phone to take a look. The photo taken by Mu Yanshan was quite nice.

She clicked save, and lay on the sofa behind Mu Yanshan, looking at him curiously, "Tell me the truth, where did you get this photo? What are you doing tonight? How do you know where Huo Yixiao and I are having dinner? Are you following me?"

She narrowed her eyes dangerously.

Mu Yanshan turned his head to look at her, took the opportunity to kiss her on the lips, and then said: "Someone secretly took the photo and sent it to me. It originally showed two people, and I cut out the irrelevant one."

【Even Shanxi aged vinegar is not as sour as yours.】

Mingnan couldn't help laughing and reached out to pinch his red ears. "And then?"

"Then I asked someone to check the source of the email and found that it was Zhang Yao who did it. I followed the clues and checked their contacts. I found that Huo Yixiao went to a club with Zhang Yao and others before approaching you."

Mu Yanshan frowned and said, "I reasonably suspected that he had ulterior motives for approaching you, so I hired a private detective to keep an eye on Huo Yixiao, hoping to catch him and show you something so that you would stay away from him."

He paused, looked into Mingnan's eyes, and said meaningfully, "But I think I have done something unnecessary."

Mingnan tilted his head, raised his eyebrows and smiled, confident and bold, so bright that people couldn't take their eyes off him, "You found out?"

Mu Yanshan nodded, "When I found out that you and him were just flirting, I stopped worrying about you getting hurt. Although I don't know why, you must have had your reasons for doing so, so I didn't bother you."

"Then tonight you--"

"Mingnan."

Mu Yanshan interrupted her, stroked her face, and said in a deep voice: "I am not a saint, just an ordinary man in love. I will be jealous, envious, and angry."

"So I rushed here as soon as the private detective sent me a message. I saw you and Huo Yixiao sitting together, talking and laughing. I knew it was fake, but I was really jealous."

"I endured it for a week until I could no longer endure it. I was impulsive but also rational. Even without Huo Yixiao's stimulation, I still bought the watch. I wonder when you are willing to give me a name."

It is not easy to confess your jealousy to someone. Mingnan finds it difficult to do so, so he was moved for a moment when he heard Mu Yanshan's words.

Thinking of his previous reactions, and then thinking about his cut-up phone wallpaper, I couldn't help but let out a short laugh.

"Mu Yanshan, I found that you are a little bit——"

"What?"

"cute."

As she spoke, she leaned closer and gave the jealous and anxious Jealous Man a gentle and soothing kiss.
