Ning Mochen's black, jade-like hair, without any hairspray, gleamed faintly. He removed his glasses, and beneath his long, curled eyelashes, his amber eyes held an unreadable expression. "You've come to see me?"
Chu Yuan pursed her lips, bent down to pick up her phone, "I guess so. I just called Madam Ning, but..."
Friend, you have to take the blame for breaking your phone!
There was no response from the other party for a long time. Chu Yuan raised her eyes and looked at him pitifully, "Sir, you said you would let me know after you were discharged from the hospital."
"Come in." Ning Mochen finally stepped aside, gesturing for Chu Yuan to enter.
"Thank you." Chu Yuan said politely on the surface, but was inwardly excited.
After all, once they're inside, there'll be a chance to get Ning Mochen to take the "Traction Butterfly"!
However, while she was still admiring the crystal chandelier above her head, Ning Mochen went up and down the stairs, and a bank card appeared in front of her.
"There's some money inside, you can take it."
Chu Yuan looked up, quite surprised. Wasn't this a bit off?
Why didn't Ning Mochen throw out a black card?
Is she unworthy?
She could barely accept a black card, but now... Chu Yuan needed help; she had to stay without any problems.
The next instant, Ning Mochen saw the woman in front of him sway, her delicate eyelashes flutter, and she softly collapsed to the ground.
Ning Mochen frowned slightly. At the last moment before Chu Yuan landed, he grabbed her waist and casually tossed her onto the sofa.
Then, kneeling down, he took off the new test bracelet from his own wrist and put it on Chu Yuan's slender wrist.
This bracelet hasn't been released yet, but it's already fully functional and can detect most bodily abnormalities. It's specifically designed for people with sub-health conditions, and he personally conducted the final testing.
On the small screen of the wristband, several rows of data fluctuated before stabilizing, and the blood sugar column showed a red value.
It turns out it was low blood sugar.
The objective and accurate data dispelled Ning Mochen's doubts. After hesitating for a moment, he got up, went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a packet of glucose solution.
She was lucky.
He always kept this at home, not because he was unhealthy, but because he was terrified of hunger as a child. He was kicked out of his dormitory in the dead of winter and almost starved and froze to death, which left him with this bad habit.
I need to drink a couple of sips every night to fall asleep.
Ning Mochen poured glucose into a clear glass and fed it to Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan's body was limp, and she couldn't even open her eyes, but she was still conscious and knew what Ning Mochen had done to her.
Rather than waiting for her to drink the glucose and be kicked out of the house, it's better to...
Therefore, as she drank, her head tilted to the side and she buried herself in Ning Mochen's chest.
He took the opportunity to put a butterfly tractor capsule into his mouth.
Feeling Ning Mochen help her up and feed her another bite, Chu Yuan held the food in her mouth without swallowing. Seizing the opportunity, she hugged Ning Mochen's neck and covered his lips with hers.
The familiar sweetness seeped in, seemingly mixed with something strange.
Ning Mochen instinctively pushed Chu Yuan away, but once the guiding butterfly enters the mouth, it will quickly dissolve and reside in the host's body.
Even if it's fast, it's all in vain.
Chu Yuan smiled silently, ate the other one herself, then slowly opened her eyes, feigning confusion, "Mr. Ning, did I do something to you?"
"Sorry, I used to have a dog that loved to jump onto my bed while I was sleeping, so just now... I mistook you for my dog!"
Ning Mochen's eyes changed color; his pupils were no longer amber, but a deeper shade of light brown.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Chu Yuan looked either stunned or dumbfounded, which made Ning Mochen clench his fist silently. His warm voice became more distant, "Are you alright? Then let's go."
Although Chu Yuan was a little surprised and wondered if the system's item had worked, she quickly agreed, "Oh, okay."
Before leaving, he didn't forget to take the bank card from the coffee table.
It's all the thought that counts, and she doesn't have the right to complain now.
Everything went smoothly, and Chu Yuan didn't want any unexpected trouble. If she ran into Zhou Manyun, things might change if she returned to school. So, after leaving the house, she first checked the neighbor's house to make sure no one was coming out before putting on her hoodie and leaving quietly.
Unbeknownst to her, Ning Mochen went up to the second floor and witnessed her cautious, cat-like movements, unconsciously sticking his tongue out at his cheek.
You were so bold just now, and now you're so timid?
Chu Yuan had no money for a taxi, so she shamelessly hopped into a red convertible sports car. The driver looked like a spoiled brat and seemed to have designs on Chu Yuan.
"Little sister, you're still a student, right? Come to the bar with me tonight, and I'll let you hitch a ride with me every day from now on."
This "蹭" (ceng) is really magical.
Chu Yuan raised her clear eyes, looking very serious. "Brother, do you know whose house I went to when I went up the mountain just now?"
"Whose house is this?" the纨绔公子 asked dismissively.
She'd seen plenty of people like Chu Yuan—poor and aloof, probably just a mistress kept by someone. What was there to pretend about?
Chu Yuan saw through his thoughts at a glance, but didn't care. "Have you heard of Ning Mochen?"
hiss--
After the sound of tires rubbing against the ground, the car came to a sudden stop, with a steep cliff in front of it.
The spoiled young master stared wide-eyed in disbelief, turning to look at Chu Yuan. "You mean, you're one of the Ning family's adopted sons?"
Chu Yuan neither admitted nor denied it.
Gu Qingyan pursed her lips, restarted the car, and said disbelievingly, "Stop bragging. Anyone could be keeping you, but Ning Mochen? Impossible!"
Chu Yuan was too lazy to explain. She stretched out her left hand and placed the fitness tracker that Ning Mochen had forgotten to put away in front of Gu Qingyan. "You recognize the logo on this, right? You also recognize the two characters next to the logo, right?"
Gu Qingyan glanced at it instinctively and easily recognized it as a product of Ning's Technology. The word "test" next to it was of great significance!
Such products, which are not yet on the market and are in the internal testing phase, are essentially trade secrets. Only people with special status who are unlikely to have their secrets leaked can possess them.
For the next stretch of the road, Chu Yuan immediately noticed that Gu Qingyan was much more obedient, and even thoughtfully asked her where she was going.
Chu Yuan pointed to the bank by the roadside, "This is it."
Gu Qingyan looked up, asked nothing, and smiled, "Little sister, will we have a chance to meet again?"
Chu Yuan tilted her head. "I should."
The red convertible scooter drove away, and Chu Yuan walked into the ATM self-service area, inserted her card, entered the PIN code on the card, and clicked to check her balance.
When she saw the 1 followed by seven zeros, she looked completely bewildered.
Ten million? You call that a little bit of money?
Does Ning Mochen have some misunderstanding about "a little bit"?
When Chu Yuan left the bank, her steps were swift, showing no trace of her previous disdain for not having a black card.
She decided that she wanted Ning Mochen, this treasure!
Someone who wouldn't even consider ten million a piece of cake would certainly not care about mundane things like gold.
Throw it all at her!
Fog Mountain Villa —
Ning Mochen touched his left chest, which was suddenly surging with emotion, and was puzzled.
I didn't do anything, so why am I feeling secretly happy?
****
I wasn't satisfied with the beginning, so I revised the text.
Those who have time can read the first chapter of the story (the first chapter of the dimension), but it's okay if you don't; it won't make a big difference.
The modern world is really jarring, and probably not as appealing as the ancient world.
