Chapter 3: She doesn't want to work hard anymore

She quickly withdrew her hand as if she was burned, and Mu Yanshan immediately took a deep breath, and the low and rapid sound echoed in his ears.

Mingnan realized belatedly what he had done and was so embarrassed that his hands and feet went numb. Just as he was about to apologize, someone else came outside.

"What are you doing here?"

"Huaishu, you're here!"

"We are here with Huai Chi to look for someone. Why are you here too? Are you here to look for Huai Chi?"

Huaishu, Ming Huaishu, is the fake daughter who replaced the original owner in the first half of her life. She is also the heroine of this book. In fact, she is the only person who has ever given the original owner a little care.

Mingnan's eyes lit up and his attention was immediately drawn to them.

She didn't notice that Mu Yanshan was staring at her.

Outside the door, Gu Huaichi saw Ming Huaishu appear here. Something flashed through his mind and he frowned and asked, "Did you receive the message too?"

Ming Huaishu was stunned, and looked at him with a subtle look, "She also made an appointment with you?"

Then she changed her words, "No, she asked you out first."

This time it is a declarative sentence.

Gu Huaichi glanced at the empty lounge and nodded, "It looks like you've been left out, too."

The two looked at each other, both somewhat puzzled.

The others were even more confused and couldn't help asking, "Hey, what are you guys telling?"

"Who can invite both of you together? It can't be Mingnan, right?"

"Fuck, it's possible. What does she want to do?"

"What else can you do? I guess you're trying to play some tricks." The friends looked at each other and tacitly revealed an ambiguous and contemptuous smile.

Ming Huaishu looked unhappy and said seriously, "Mingnan hasn't even shown up yet, how do you know what she's going to do? Don't speculate about others behind their backs."

"How can we just assume that? Wasn't she always chasing after Huai Chi? She even sent him love letters. It's so funny. It's such a long time now, and she's still playing those shabby tricks."

“That’s called fun, hahahahahaha—”

Mingnan was furious when he heard this. [It's a waste of talent for these people not to work in the village intelligence team.]

Mu Yanshan couldn't help but curl his lower lip.

The intelligence team at the entrance of the village, it’s her fault that she could think of it.

Ming Huaishu obviously couldn't bear to listen any more, "That's enough, I'll leave now if there's nothing else."

Before leaving, she glanced at Gu Huaichi, who nodded. The two exchanged glances, and neither of them told anyone about the person who released the pigeons. Afterwards, Gu Huaichi said a few words to those people and left together.

The corridor became quiet. Mingnan waited for a while, making sure there was no sound, before letting go of Mu Yanshan.

Mu Yanshan let her pull him aside and watched her open the door. She poked her head out halfway like a thief and looked around.

【Finally left, luckily I ran fast. 】

She patted her chest, breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and waved to Mu Yanshan, "They're gone, let's go out."

She went out first and stood in the corridor. Her face was still flushed, but her eyes were much clearer.

She had very fair skin and long dark hair, the contrast was very sharp, and with that pair of bright red eyes, she actually looked rather cold when she wasn't smiling. She just stood there, looking completely different from the person who had just pulled his sleeve and swayed him.

Mu Yanshan stood in the darkness at the door, looking at her silently.

The next moment, Mingnan suddenly turned around and smiled at him with curved lips, his dimples deep. That bit of coldness instantly disappeared, as if spring had come in an instant.

Mu Yanshan's heart was moved slightly.

"Thank you so much for just now--" He was halfway through his words when the suit on his shoulders slipped down. Mingnan reached out to pull it up, and Mu Yanshan also reached out his hand, and their hands were pressed together.

They were all stunned. Mingnan blinked and said, "Thank you now, too."

Mu Yanshan couldn't help but laugh, "Yeah."

He let go of Mingnan's hand, took off his suit and shook it.

[Ah? Are you going to take it back? ]

Mu Yanshan shook his head, "Left hand, put it in."

Mingnan turned his head to take a look, then subconsciously did as he was told and put his bare arms into the sleeves of his suit.

"Right hand."

Mingnan will do it.

Mu Yanshan curled his lips in satisfaction, grabbed the sides of the suit and pulled it toward the middle, then buttoned it up one by one from the bottom up, "Put it on, your skirt is wrinkled."

"and……"

He paused, and Mingnan couldn't help but ask, "And what?"

Mu Yanshan raised his hand to support the frame of the glasses, turned his eyes away, pursed his lips and said, "The neckline is a bit big."

Mingnan: “???”

*

[205, is the neckline really that big?!]

Mingnan said goodbye to Mu Yanshan as if he was escaping, asked for his cell phone number, said he would treat him to dinner if he had the chance in the future, and then returned to the lounge.

205: [From his perspective, I guess there is a little bit. The host should be more careful in the future. He is quite nice to say the least. He even gave you his suit jacket.]

Mingnan exhaled slowly, clenched the cuffs of his suit, and was distracted for a moment.

But he quickly remembered the purpose of his return and slapped his forehead and said, "My phone!"

She turned on the light and looked around, finally finding it under the sofa.

The phone is not broken, but the battery is at risk.

She didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly called a taxi. As soon as the car arrived, she left when no one was paying attention.

After getting into the taxi, she looked back at the brightly lit villa when closing the door, and her eyes gradually dimmed.

This time, she was not discovered by the hero's friends, and did not become a thorn between the hero and heroine. The gears of fate began to turn, and the first step in changing her fate was successful.

From now on, this will no longer be the beginning of a nightmare.

Mingnan withdrew his gaze and said silently in his heart: Goodbye.

*

The Ming family has villas in the suburbs and the city center, but usually everyone lives in the city center.

So she drove the car directly into the villa area. The security guard at the gate of the community stepped forward to stop her. Mingnan lowered the window, smiled and said, "It's me."

The security work in the villa area here is very good, and no unfamiliar vehicles or people are allowed to enter.

The security guard saw her and smiled politely, "It's Miss Ming. Why did you take a taxi back?"

All the cars coming in and out here are luxury cars, and taxis are very rare.

Mingnan said, "I went out to play."

Seeing that she was unwilling to speak, the security guard stopped asking questions and stepped aside to let her pass.

When they arrived at Ming's house, Ming Nan took out his cell phone, which had only 2% battery left, and quickly scanned the code to pay. He said goodbye to the driver and got out of the car.

Through the floor-to-ceiling window, she saw that the main light in the living room was on and the servants were walking back and forth carrying things. It seemed that Ming's father and mother were both there.

She pursed her lips, feeling a little bit of resistance in her heart.

That was not her emotion, but the obsession left in the body of the original owner.

He was clearly her closest relative, yet he hurt her the most.

She took a deep breath, took off Mu Yanshan's coat and put it over her arm, then entered the password and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, the conversations in the room suddenly stopped.

Mingnan put on his slippers and went in, meeting the eyes of the person on the sofa, "Mom and Dad, I'm back."

Mingjue subconsciously looked behind her, but when he didn't see the person he wanted to see, his brows immediately wrinkled, "Where's Huaishu?"
