Zi——
The phone vibrated again, startling Chu Mu who was deep in thought.
The caller ID shows the newly added contact, Chen Xudong.
"Mr. Chu," the voice on the other end suddenly filled with respect, "I've shown the video to Fu Jun. He expressed his willingness to cooperate, but he still wants to meet with you."
"Okay," Chu Mu agreed, "Please take care of the arrangements."
"Mr. Chu," Chen Xudong hesitated a little, "Xiaotian just called me and told me that Chu Tian helped me deal with the loan sharks and contacted a doctor in the Hong Kong area for my mother. From now on... I will listen to you."
"You don't have to show your loyalty to me," Chu Mu put one hand in his pocket and kicked the gravel under his feet. "I'm lending you the money, not asking you to work."
"Yes..." Chen Xudong wiped his face, "What should I do next? You tell me."
"Send the video to Qiao Qiao."
"?" Chen Xudong was puzzled.
"It doesn't make sense that I can't sleep tonight, but he can still sleep well, right?"
As he said this, a gust of night wind gently lifted the strands of hair on Chu Mu's forehead, revealing his eyebrows and eyes.
Soft lines, delicate features, sharp gaze and sarcastic corners of the mouth.
Everything is so contradictory, yet so harmonious.
Xiao Bing couldn't help but stare in amazement.
Chu Mu hung up the phone and looked up inadvertently, and saw Xiao Bing whose soul had left his body.
"Hey," Chu Mu waved one hand in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking about you," Xiao Bing replied naturally, "Brother Chu, you are so good, Xiao Ting is not worthy of you."
This was the first time that Xiao Bing called Xiao Ting's name in front of Chu Mu, and it was also the first time that he expressed his dissatisfaction with Xiao Ting.
[Huh? What's going on? Am I the one who caused Xiao Baicai to rebel against the Xiao family?]
"Ah, definitely not. If we follow the original plot, I should be in prison now and have no contact with Xiao Bing at all."
Xiao Bing frowned when he heard this. The original plot line, prison...
Combined with the words "plane" and "crossing" he had heard before, his heart beat faster and faster, almost as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
He had read similar novels. If Chu Mu was really a tasker, he would leave this world after completing his task.
No!
Absolutely not!
Xiao Bing's eyes were suddenly filled with neurotic madness——
"Mine, mine... No one can take it away..."
A hand suddenly rested on his forehead, and the cold touch cooled Xiao Bing's brain quickly.
He blinked his dry eyes and saw Chu Mu's slightly concerned face.
"Xiaobaicai? What's wrong with you?"
"..." Xiao Bing grabbed Chu Mu's hand and wrapped it tightly with his own palm, "Your hand is so cold."
"?" Chu Mu looked at him strangely, "I asked you what was wrong with you, and you said my hands were so cold?"
"Well, I just thought of something and my CPU almost exploded." Xiao Bing squeezed Chu Mu's hand and rubbed it again and again. "Chu Chu, no one in the Xiao family is a good person. Divorce Xiao Ting as soon as possible."
Chu Mu laughed and tried to pull his hand back.
?
Xiao Bing held on tightly, refusing to let go: "I'm serious, don't get involved with the Xiao family."
"Pfft," Chu Mu laughed, "You're talking as if you're not a member of the Xiao family."
"I'm an exception."
"Why are you different from them?" Chu Mu joked, "If you don't give me a convincing enough reason, I will treat everyone equally."
Xiao Bing's brows were twisted into a knot.
After a while, he suddenly put Chu Mu's hand to his side and shook it twice: "I just turned eighteen..."
Chu Mu:? ?
Kneeling Muggles:? ?
Xiao Bing was particularly sincere: "Is the reason sufficient?"
"I've been walking on thin ice all my life," Chu Mu shook his head and sighed, "Do you think my fists can last until you grow up?"
Xiao Bing couldn't hold it back any longer and was the first to laugh out loud.
Chu Mu also had a smile on his face.
The golden tabby sitting in Chu Mu's consciousness space stretched lazily: There is no need for me, the love Cupid, to take action, these two are about to fall in love.
Come on, Mumu! You must give the Lord God a five-star rating, so that I can get my year-end bonus!
…
Ajie lives in an old community with a very bad environment.
The corridor was pitch black, and Chu Mu had to turn on the flashlight on his phone to illuminate the area.
"404... This room number is really interesting." Chu Mu reached out and knocked on the door, "Ajie."
There was no response from inside the door.
Chu Mu patiently knocked a few more times: "Ajie, open the door, I'm Chu Mu."
Still no response.
Chu Mu and Xiao Bing looked at each other.
"Maybe he went out," Xiao Bing urged. "Or maybe he couldn't wait any longer and asked other friends to come pick him up."
"Impossible," Chu Mu shook his head, "He has no other friends here."
"That's not certain," Xiao Bing muttered, "Maybe she's found a boyfriend or girlfriend or something..."
Click.
Before he could finish his words, the door in front of him was opened.
A figure with only a towel wrapped around his waist stood against the light: "Mumu, you are finally here."
Chu Mu's gaze shifted from Ajie's feet to his face: "Didn't you say you were dying? How can you still take a shower?"
"I was about to pass out, and I wanted to wake myself up a little, so I went to wash myself."
Ajie made way: "Come in and sit down."
Chu Mu looked into the room: "Where's Aunt Yun?"
"She doesn't live with me." Ajie walked around in front of Chu Mu with a bath towel around him. "You know, I wasn't thinking straight before, but now I'm suddenly better. She - I mean, my mom, can't adapt to it."
[They say a mother knows a child better than anyone else. Others may not be able to sense it, but Aunt Yun will definitely be able to detect something is wrong. And Fan Ji doesn't have my acting skills, so it will be exposed in a matter of minutes.]
From the moment Xiao Bing met Ajie, she became as silent as a block of ice.
Chu Mu's inner thoughts reached his ears, and Xiao Bing froze.
Fan Ji...
What a familiar name.
Xiao Bing raised his eyes and his gaze met Ajie's.
"hello."
Ajie gave a friendly smile.
"You are Xiaobing, right? Mumu told me about you."
Chu Mu always felt that there was something wrong with what Ajie said.
But I can't explain why.
Only Xiao Bing keenly felt that this guy named Ajie was declaring his sovereignty.
Declare the sovereignty of this guy and Chu Mu.
Xiao Bing's eyes suddenly turned into a bottomless black.
He held out his hand—
