At school, classes proceeded as usual, and then school ended.
After school, Li Mu took Lu Wan with him, while Li Yi followed at the very back with his head down, looking cool.
Remembering Qin Yin's words from last night, Qin Luochen hurriedly chased after Li Mu and ran out of the classroom.
Qin Luochen caught up with Li Mu and immediately said, "Little Mu Mu, I've moved across the street from your house. Come to my house from now on."
Li Mu did not give an answer immediately. He looked at Lu Wan and Li Yi.
Neither of them seemed inclined to speak, so Li Mu had no choice but to say, "Of course, if it's not too much trouble."
Qin Luochen quickly replied, "It's no trouble at all, not at all. In fact, I'm overjoyed!"
Li Muluwan burst out laughing when she saw Qin Luochen's exaggerated expression.
Li Yi, however, made a disdainful sound.
Mi Xi was the only one left in the classroom. She looked at Li Mu, who was being fawned over by everyone, with jealousy that she couldn't hide. Fortunately, everyone had left.
Mi Xi, wearing a baseball cap pulled down low, sneaked out of the classroom.
Qin Luochen led Li Mu and the others into the villa. Qin Luochen said to them, "You can come anytime in the future."
The group found a place to sit down, took out their books, and began to study. The butler also had a lot of snacks brought over, each one looking and tasting delicious.
Not long after, Qin Yin returned. When he came in and saw the group of students studying diligently, he unconsciously slowed his pace.
Ahem, actually, the moment Qin Yin entered, his gaze never left Li Mu for even a second.
The butler was about to step forward to greet them when Qin Yin silently stopped him.
Qin Yin walked quietly behind Li Mu and glanced at the others. It turned out that they were all doing practice tests.
Qin Yin smiled and sat quietly behind Li Mu, watching the little girl write her test paper. The corners of his mouth turned up even more.
Just then, the alarm clock rang, and the group stopped writing. As they exchanged their test papers, everyone except Li Mu stared at Qin Yin, who had returned sometime earlier.
The test paper he held up stopped in mid-air. Qin Luochen's lips twitched slightly. When Li Mu saw the others' expressions, he subconsciously turned his head.
They happened to meet Qin Yin's deep, captivating eyes.
Li Mu was startled by the person who suddenly appeared behind her, and her body instinctively leaned back. Behind her was a table, and Li Mu was sitting right on the corner of the table.
Qin Yin, who was originally sitting on the ground, quickly put his arm around Li Mu's back, placed his hand on the corner of the table, and supported the back of Li Mu's head with his other hand.
He didn't make any physical contact with the girl in front of him, very gentlemanly, all these actions happened in the blink of an eye.
Behind them, Qin Luochen, Li Yi, and Lu Wan were all dumbfounded.
Li Mu calmed down and, with Qin Yin's help, sat up straight again.
Qin Yin also withdrew his hand from the corner of the table and the hand that was protecting the back of Li Mu's head, but he still kept the posture of kneeling on one knee, and his withdrawn hand naturally rested on his knee.
Qin Yin raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "I saw you were working very seriously on your papers, so I didn't disturb you. I didn't expect to scare you. I thought you were a very brave little girl."
Li Mu pouted and denied it somewhat guiltily, "Uncle Qin, haven't you heard the saying, 'A person who scares another can scare them to death'? That's very ungentlemanly and lacks manners!"
After listening to Li Mu's words, he seemed to be thinking about it and said, "I think you are right. It was really not gentlemanly of me to suddenly appear behind you and scare you."
After Qin Yin finished speaking, suppressing his laughter, he covered his mouth with his hands and coughed twice to hide his urge to laugh. He then stole a glance at the people around him.
Noticing that these people seemed a bit dazed, I changed the subject.
He asked casually, "How is it? Do you think it's alright?" and then glanced down at the little girl sitting on the ground.
Qin Yin frowned and said in a low voice, "This carpet is too thin, and the table isn't very good either."
She looked up and called the butler over, instructing him to replace the carpet with a thicker Persian one, and the table with one without sharp edges. She also instructed him to cover the edges of the table with a cloth, and to add more variety to the pastries.
"Let's get on with it for now," the butler said, waving his hand as he pushed the cart away.
Qin Luochen said somewhat inexplicably, "Uncle, you don't have to do this. I think the carpet is fine, and the snacks are delicious too."
Qin Yin said seriously, "It's not good enough. Girls shouldn't get cold; it's bad for their health. Also, this table has sharp edges and corners. What if they bump into it?"
Qin Luochen was speechless, while Li Yi remained expressionless, even feeling a lot of anxiety in his heart; he was also worried that his sister would catch a cold.
Qin Yin looked at Lu Wan and asked gently, "Little girl, what's your name?"
Lu Wan stood up nervously when asked the question, nodded to Qin Yin and said, "Hello Uncle Qin, my name is Lu Wan."
He narrowed his eyes and made a soft "hmm" sound. "Lu Wanhao, I'll remember you. You're a shy little girl."
He glanced at his watch, smiled, and said, "I have a meeting soon. Everyone stay for dinner tonight." Before anyone could object, he strode upstairs.
Under Qin Yin's decisive and swift decision-making, some decisions were affirmed and required to be implemented as soon as possible, while others were rejected.
The process wasn't long, but it was very efficient, which is consistent with Qin Yin's style.
He glanced at his wrist, felt it was about time, and said to the company representatives in the video, "It's about time, the meeting is over."
The high-level executives on the other end of the computer...
Staring blankly at the black screen of the main unit, one of the executives said with a hint of grievance, "Isn't this newly established branch office a company?"
Although my branch office was newly established this year, it's quite reasonable that we've achieved a good result.
Qin Yin had no idea how lively the video was. By this time, he had already gone downstairs and sat down at the dining table. Qin Luochen led Li Mu and the others to their seats in the restaurant. Qin Yin was flanked by Qin Luochen and Li Mu on his left and right, and then by Li Yi and Lu Wan.
Qin Yin sat in the main seat and said in a gentle tone, "I didn't know what you all liked to eat, so I made a few extra dishes. I don't know if they suit your tastes."
Don't be shy, have a taste.
He has really high emotional intelligence. Li Mu felt that she got along very well with this Uncle Qin, and there was no age gap at all. The group of them had a very happy meal together.
After Li Mu and the others left, Qin Yin returned to his room and sat quietly by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the second floor across the street. He had a cigarette between his left and right hands, and a glass of red wine on the table to his right.
It's like a quiet painting.
Thinking about the little girl's fright today, Qin Yin felt a strange stirring in his heart. Although he didn't know why he felt this stirring, he vaguely felt that it was related to the little girl, Li Mu.
