At night, after a tiring day.
Xu Musen had finally managed to coax An Nuannuan to sleep.
Looking at the peacefully sleeping girl in his arms, Xu Musen always couldn't help but gently pinch her with his hand.
Now he suddenly felt a sense of having a warm family and a content ho.
However, after today's events, Xu Musen also suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
Though public security is quite good nowadays, overt threats are easy to dodge, but covert threats are hard to guard against.
Even if business fails, one can always start over, but if sothing unexpected happens to the people around you, there's no second chance.
Just like the fruit delivery guy, Laizhang, Xu Musen could understand his thinking.
Laizhang usually worked honestly, and generally had a good relationship with everyone at the shop.
Only because his wife was sick and permanently hospitalized did he need money, and thus was exploited by others, but every choice ultimately cos with a price.
Xu Musen thought that this world is such that one must not harbor intentions to harm others, but one must guard against those who might, especially people like Luo Hao and Huang Tianming who might act desperately.
Especially now as he's about to start a family, it seems he needs to enhance security.
Xu Musen was thinking about this when suddenly he heard a noise; it seed like the sound of the door lock turning at the entrance.
In the silent night, Xu Musen's senses were still very sharp.
Without making a sound, he slowly pushed An Nuannuan away from his embrace and placed a pillow in her arms for her to hold, then he quietly stepped out of the bedroom.
At the door, it indeed was the sound of unlocking.
Xu Musen directly went to the kitchen, grabbed a kitchen knife, and hid it behind him, watching for the mont the door would open when he pushed it suddenly, the kitchen knife ready in his hand.
"Ah..."
The door collided with the person opening it.
But at that familiar voice, Xu Musen's hand with the knife paused.
"Yao Mingyue?"
"What, it's not ... What do you an by holding a knife?"
Yao Mingyue, rubbing her forehead and speaking grumpily, glanced at the flashing kitchen knife in Xu Musen's hand, and her eyes widened even more!
"This..." Xu Musen felt he was perhaps being overly sensitive, a bit embarrassed, "Well, I got up for a midnight snack. Why are you coming back so late?"
Xu Musen thought Yao Mingyue would have gone back to rest with Liu Rushuang.
"Can't I co back to check on a certain bastard?"
Yao Mingyue said irritably, then glanced around the room, "Is Nuannuan asleep?"
"Just fell asleep."
"That's good then."
Yao Mingyue seed to relax a bit, she smiled slightly, took off her coat, and tossed it directly in Xu Musen's face.
She deftly slipped under his arm, kicked off her little leather shoes, her feet clad in white little boat socks lightly stepping on the soft carpet in the living room.
The faint familiar scent of roses, Xu Musen took off the thrown garnt, his gaze moving to Yao Mingyue who was now comfortably lounging on the sofa.
This sequence of smooth actions was the sa as her usual routine when she ca ho in his previous life.
Typically, it would also include a kiss as soon as she entered the door.
"Weren't you going to eat a midnight snack? Today I helped you all day and didn't eat anything, so hurry up and make sothing too."
Yao Mingyue saw his sowhat dazed expression, she slowly took off the little socks, revealing her white and tender feet: "What are you staring at? Oh~ Right, do you want to collect your fee first?"
She said teasingly, playfully shaking the little socks in her hand, indicating that it was a reward she might give later.
Xu Musen just helplessly shook his head, closed the door, and checked the kitchen; there were still plenty of vegetables.
"Didn't you and your mom eat dinner tonight?"
"You know as well as I do; she just eats so fast food to get by when she's working. I can't stomach that, so I ca here to scavenge a al from you."
At these words, Xu Musen smiled; Liu Rushuang was a woman who had managed to establish such a big business in Huhai in just a few short years, naturally, she was a workaholic. But that didn't an she had to survive on fast food every day as her company had chefs on standby.
"At this hour, the chefs are off duty; you really love making work hard."
Though Xu Musen said this, he was already fetching vegetables from the fridge, preparing to make a couple of dishes for her.
"You wouldn't complain about serving a feast to your little girlfriend, but it's too much when I co for a al?"
Yao Mingyue bit her lip, showing a face of aggrieved Daiyu: "Forget it, I suppose the sister is being presumptuous. From now on, even if I starve, I won't co to bother you."
Saying this, she pretended to stand up.
Xu Musen went over and gently knocked her forehead with a banana: "Alright, I'll also make you caralized bananas later."
Yao Mingyue imdiately brightened up, her mood changing as fast as flipping a book. Looking at the banana in Xu Musen's hand, her eyes narrowed: "This banana looks so small, is it enough for both of us?"
The bigger bananas Xu Musen bought earlier had already been used for cooking, and the ones left were smaller.
But Xu Musen knew all too well what the little Sickly Cutie ant by her murmuring. He chuckled: "This won't be enough to stuff you!"
...
As Xu Musen cooked, Yao Mingyue also entered the kitchen and locked the door from the inside.
"Why lock the door?"
Xu Musen raised an eyebrow.
"Just in case certain people can't control their beastly urges and let Nuannuan see, which wouldn't be good." Yao Mingyue said, a mischievous smile curving her lips.
Xu Musen ignored her.
