Chapter 70 - "I know. It wasn't you who said it." (3)
Mu XiYuan gave her a look and looked outside of the window. “I don’t know what kind of spell you have used on Mu ZhenYu. He didn’t even blame you after he heard our conversation, but…”
He turned around and stared at her viciously. “There are enough people fighting over the Mu’s fortune already. I am not going to let you be a part of it.”
Xu WanZhi played with the tip of her hair before she pinched another strawberry and plopped it inside of her mouth. She waved her hand and said, her voice slightly muffled, “Look at yourself right now. I don’t think it’d matter to you how many are there fighting over the Mu’s fortune.”
She casually strolled out of his room and heard a noise made by a strawberry hitting the door.
It’d seem like the weakling back in the room was angered by her.
Right then, Mu ZhenYu also came back inside after he has finished his cigarette and ran into her in the hallway.
His lips curving slightly upward, he glanced over at Mu XiYuan’s room and asked her in a low voice, “All taken care of?”
“Yup, all taken care of.” Xu WanZhi turned around and gave it a look. “He will be the bouncy Second Young Master Mu again in a few days.”
“If you can take care of it yourself, why did you bother with the whole traditional doctor spiel in front of the old madam?” He walked in front of her in a few steps and stroked her on her cheeks with his hand that still smelled like his cigarette – a scene that looked like the two of them were madly in love with each other from the eyes of an outsider. “WanWan, what are you trying to pull here?”
“To appease the old madam, of course.” Xu WanZhi looked up and met his piercing eyes. “Mr. Mu, I trust that you wouldn’t want a second or a third Liang ZhiQuan, right?”
Mu ZhenYu snickered and said, “So? Where are you going to find this traditional doctor from?”
“I’m in the entertainment circle.” She reached out her little hand and gently stroke over his knuckles that was stroking her cheek. “We have no shortage of actors in my circle.”
Mu ZhenYu flipped his hand around, grabbed hers, and held it tightly in his. She could immediately feel a sense of warmth covering the back of her hand. “The old madam is not an old lady who could be fooled easily. She would know he’s an actor.”
“That is the whole purpose.” Xu WanZhi winked at him. “Don’t worry. I have my ways with old people. Mr. Mu needs only to focus on his business.”
Xu WanZhi looked up and it was the super gossipy Aunt Hu.
She had on her apron and held a spatula in her hand as though she worried that others wouldn’t know that she was hard at work. She walked over quickly and said, “You let as soon as you were done eating. You could at least help us elderly to clean up some. That’s exactly why the old madam doesn’t like you.”
Mu ZhenYu gave her a look and said, “Why does the guest need to help clean up? What do we hire all the servants for then? To laze around like you?”
Aunt Hu shook her head, “What are you talking about, Young Master. The old madam will be displeased again has she heard this. She’d say you are going against your family for this little goblin.”
Mu ZhenYu was just about to say something else before Xu WanZhi tugged at him.
Her palm was soft and her grab and pull felt like she was whining to him. He stopped himself from saying what he had wanted to say.
“It’s just wiping down the table and doing the dishes. I’ll go take care of them,” said Xu WanZhi as she purposefully straightened out Mu ZhenYu’s collar and stood on her tip toes as though she was about to give him a kiss. In reality, she whispered into his ear, “Don’t worry, I also have my ways with middle-aged woman who didn’t know her place.”
