Chapter 238 Giving Her a Surprise
Kong Wange coughed lightly and put away her phone: "Okay, you can go back now."
Wen Yue smiled, waved to her, and turned to leave.
Kong Wange then took out her phone again.
The caller, seemingly tireless, called again.
Her heart tightened, and she answered the phone: "Why are you calling so late? Is something wrong with the child?"
A slightly lazy voice came from the other end: "The child is fine, I have things to do. Wanwan, what are you doing?"
Kong Wange breathed a sigh of relief and walked back while listening to Murong Ting's words: "Nothing much, I just met my uncle. Murong Ting, you really don't get tired, making two phone calls in one night..."
"Wanwan, I miss you."
Upon hearing this, Kong Wange fell silent, unsure of what to say. This was the first time Murong Ting had expressed himself so directly.
After a long pause, she replied somewhat flusteredly, "Murong Ting, what nonsense are you talking about? Didn't we agree to be friends first?"
"Wanwan, I admit it, I regret it, I'm scared. I can't afford to lose to you. I'm afraid that if I wait, we'll really become just friends. Especially this morning, you asked me to play along with you and not admit to others that you're my wife. Do you know how uncertain this makes me? If it weren't for my three children still by my side, I would really go crazy."
Murong Ting continued, "Wanwan, now I want to tell you that even if you reject me a thousand or ten thousand times, it's all my fault. But you can't stop me from liking you and pursuing you. In this life, you can only be my wife, Murong Ting's wife."
Kong Wange paused, glanced around instinctively, and stammered, "Keep your voice down, what are you yelling about? What if the Wen family hears us? Murong Ting, how have you become so shameless?"
“I can be a little thicker in front of you,” Murong Ting said naturally.
Kong Wange was completely helpless against his shameless behavior, and in her anger, she grabbed a handful of the weeping willow in front of her.
On the other end of the phone, Murong Ting chuckled: "Alright, I feel much better now that I've said all that. But, Wanwan, if you're angry, just hit me or yell at me. Let that willow tree go. I feel sorry for it. It's going to be plucked bald by you in a little while."
Kong Wange froze, looking at the leaf she had casually tugged at, then suddenly looked around: "Murong Ting, did you have someone spy on me?"
A soft chuckle was heard in the night, and then a tall, slender figure emerged from behind the tree.
Kong Wange stared at the man who had suddenly appeared in front of her, completely speechless: "You... how could you..."
Murong Ting reached out his large, well-defined hand and ruffled her hair: "You're usually quite smart, how could you do something so silly? How could I dare to have someone spy on you?"
Kong Wange recovered her senses and said, word by word, "Heh, it's not that I came up with this idea, it's that you were capable of doing it, okay?"
Murong Ting "..."
Is he really that scary?
He curled his lips into a smile: "How about it, are you surprised?"
"It was a fright!" Kong Wange glared at him. "How did you get in?"
There's always a way to get in.
Even in the dim light, the man's features remained remarkably handsome.
He wore a simple white shirt and black casual pants. His hair looked freshly washed, fluffy and soft. He exuded a faint scent of pine and cypress, giving off a simple and clean vibe.
As he spoke, his handsome eyebrows arched slightly, and a subtle smile played in his eyes.
Kong Wange remained resolute, ignoring the commander. She glanced around cautiously, cleared her throat, and said, "I know everything you just said. I can't stop you from doing whatever you want, but I want to make this clear: anyone who disrupts my plan to investigate the murderer and seek revenge is my enemy!"
"Don't worry, Wanwan, I know what I'm doing. I'll just play the part..." Murong Ting leaned closer to her and reached out his hand.
Kong Wange instinctively tried to back away, but he stopped her by the waist.
"you……"
Kong Wange only uttered one word before the man raised his long arm, plucked a leaf from her temple, casually tossed it away, and then whispered in her ear in a deep voice, "I'm going to pursue her too."
Kong Wange stood rooted to the spot, her limbs stiff, her heart pounding, but she tried her best to keep her tone steady: "Let go, you scoundrel!"
Murong Ting chuckled, stood up, and said, "A fair maiden is sought after by a gentleman, but how come you're considered promiscuous? It seems my charm isn't enough."
"What does this have to do with being charming or not?"
"Of course it's related. Netizens have said that handsome guys are called charming, while ugly guys are called promiscuous. If you think I'm promiscuous, doesn't that mean I'm not charming enough?"
Kong Wange wished she could kick the man in front of her.
She took a step back to create distance between them and retorted, "Are netizens your father? You're so obedient."
Murong Ting: "..."
This is the second time tonight I've been speechless.
Kong Wange won back a round, looking smug: "Don't you dare touch me like that again, or I'll find out..."
She suddenly fell silent before she could finish speaking.
The sound of rustling footsteps came from not far away, accompanied by the conversation of two people.
"I think that Miss Kong who came today is a bit silly."
"You bet she is, just like a little roe deer. Sigh, with Miss Xiaoxiao's personality, tsk, she'll have a hard time in the future."
The two people kept their voices down, but the footsteps grew closer and closer.
Kong Wange's heart tightened. Without thinking of anything else, she quickly pulled Murong Ting and hid behind the big willow tree they had just met.
Murong Ting looked at her gripping his arm tightly, listening warily to the sounds outside, and said with a smirk, "It seems someone just said not to touch me anymore?"
Kong Wange glared at him and whispered, "Shut up."
Murong Ting chuckled lightly, but didn't say anything more.
In the dead of night, a subtle fragrance wafts through the air.
Fish occasionally leap in the pond not far away, creating ripples on the water's surface.
Murong Ting looked at the woman in front of him, whose cheeks were slightly flushed from the disturbance, whose eyes were darting around, and who was sulking. His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
"Wanwan..."
"Hiss, didn't you hear me tell you to shut up?"
This time, Murong Ting ignored her and instead reached out to put his arm around her waist.
His gaze was deep as he stared at her red and white lips and teeth. His thin lips parted slightly, a faint smile playing on them. As he leaned closer to her, he said, "Tell me, how do you want me to shut up?"
Kong Wange's eyes curved into crescents as she placed her hand on his waist, pinching and twisting it hard: "I told you, don't lay a hand on me."
Murong Ting was caught off guard by her move and cried out in pain. Just as he opened his mouth, Kong Wange shot him a cold glare: "You dare to shout?"
Murong Ting gasped, "I won't scream, just let go."
Kong Wange released her hand triumphantly.
Murong Ting rubbed his waist, feeling a deep sense of defeat. He thought to himself, "This straight-as-an-arrow woman is impossible to seduce."
Thinking about it, he looked at the woman in his arms with a resentful gaze, but then he noticed that Kong Wange's ears were red, which made him feel a little better.
So she wasn't as calm as she seemed.
