Chapter 6 "A close friend."



Meng Xi, who had never worn it before, began to look for it frantically.

But no matter how hard I look, I can't find it, just like that person.

So I gradually gave up hope - but I still remembered it for twelve years.

But he never expected... that this necklace would be found by his mother after his death.

Just like this person, it only came back into his life after his death.

Meng Xi even wanted to laugh.

He thought casually, could it be that Meng Wuqing secretly took the necklace back to her room?

Yes, his perfunctory attitude at that time made her so angry that she didn't talk to him for three days.

"Stop laughing." Meng Xi was very unhappy, so he looked at Shi Wuqing with displeasure.

But the girl who was looking down at her phone was obviously unaware of his displeasure.

She was so happy that she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and her eyes were shining, as if she had obtained a treasure that would make everyone envious.

Meng Xi sneered: "You idiot who can't find his home, it's just a necklace, why are you so happy?"

The girl naturally couldn't answer him.

He didn't need to answer, he knew the answer.

It’s just that her mother and brother still remember her.

It’s nothing more than the sound of “qingqing” and the phrase “thinking about you all the time”.

"You're so easily satisfied..." He laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes.

There is only a thick and unbreakable darkness.

"Do you know Meng Xi?" Gu Ran asked almost affirmatively.

In the ward, Tang Qiqi had already left, leaving only her and Mu Jinyan.

The latter was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a fruit knife in his hand, peeling an apple carefully.

"Hmm," he said casually, his hands moving quickly and steadily, as if he had whittled countless times before.

With a slight turn of those bony hands, a very evenly peeled apple was born.

“…”Gu Ran looked at this scene, and a string of ellipsis passed through his mind.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that the man who made a senior in the entertainment industry in her previous life shudder at the mention of him would be so down-to-earth as to peel an apple for her in the ward, and... his technique was so good.

It was like seeing an eagle in the sky catching insects in the grass... The extremely mismatched feeling left Gu Ran speechless for a moment.

She reached out to take the apple.

The man smiled slightly and looked up, ignoring her hand, and put the apple into the fruit plate beside him. "The doctor said you can't eat fruit yet."

“…?” Gu Ran: “So…”

"Let Miss Tang help you solve it later."

“…” Gu Ran looked at him calmly.

【Haha ...】

[Ran Ran: Listen, are you speaking human language?]

[Hahaha, what is Mu Jinyan doing? Your wife can't eat, but you brought her here when you went to the doctor]

My husband can actually peel an apple (surprise!) He's amazing!

[Hahaha, although, putting myself in Mu Jinyan's shoes, it's really surprising. He peels really well! Even with twenty years of peeling skills, I can't compare to him!]

[Mu Mu is really in a different state in front of Ran Ran (I’m so touched)]

"Have you done this many times?" Gu Ran changed the subject in a good manner.

Mu Jinyan showed a look of nostalgia: "I guess so."

Gu Ran: "Did you really whittle it?"

The man still had that smiling look on his face: "Are you surprised?"

"I thought you were the type who didn't even know an apple has a peel."

"...I'm not a fool, Miss Gu." Mu Jinyan explained helplessly: "However, the reason I have this 'skill' is actually because I occasionally lose some bets and am forced to peel for others."

Gu Ran was even more surprised.

Who is Mu Jinyan?

She didn't say that she understood him very well, but at least she knew his true character.

Don't be fooled by his always smiling and easy-going appearance. He is actually arrogant and cold at heart. If you want him to do something he is unwilling to do, be prepared to be torn to pieces by him.

But… “forced”?

Did he just say "forced"?

More than once?

Mu Jinyan watched her expression, seemingly amused, and added, "If the carving isn't good-looking, they'll laugh at you, and the whole world will know about it."

“…” So is the peeling technology so perfect now?

He must have practiced privately many times!

When Gu Ran thought about the noble and handsome man in front of him who actually practiced peeling apples in private, he suddenly... couldn't look him in the eye.

"Is that person a friend?" Although it was a question, the tone was affirmative.

Mu Jinyan said "hmm" and smiled, "He's a close friend."
