Chapter 313: Chapter 313 Nuonuo Digs a Hole
“Su Ting, is it embarrassing to admit that you like Ming Yuan?”
“What?” Su Ting’s heart trembled at his words, his gaze montarily dazed.
Ji Muye saw the three siblings standing not far away, a warm light gathering in his eyes, and his voice deepened as he spoke.
“You seem to have forgotten that it was you who insisted on bringing her into our circle.”
Hanging his head, he carefully scrutinized his disheveled old friend on the ground, his mouth bruised purple from a punch, his eyes filled with bewildernt at these words.
Su Ting frowned deeply, beginning to recall his initial encounter with Ming Yuan.
Not just him, even Ming Yuan was almost forgetting how they first t.
Ji Muye spoke in an even tone, “Can you really distinguish between infatuation and curiosity?”
His words left Su Ting standing there stunned, dumbfoundedly looking up to et Ji Muye’s stern jawline, lost in endless contemplation.
“Ming Yuan, little Ming Yuan… you’re Han Muyuan’s cousin? You’re really delicate and pretty.”
“Your cousin is my good brother, and from now on, I’m your brother too. Co on, little Ming Yuan, call ‘brother’ and let hear it.”
Su Ting’s brain tensed.
It turned out that it was initially him who insisted on being called brother, him who first flirted with the young girl.
Han Muyuan had long settled abroad with his lover and hadn’t returned to the country for years.
Over ti, he almost forgot those long-past events because he had Ming Yuan call him brother, and even received a punch from Han Muyuan because of it.
By the ti he snapped back to his senses.
Ji Muye had already left with his daughter.
Little Dumpling turned back and waved her chubby fist at him, warning him not to bully her mom and godmother.
But after just a few seconds, a cold breeze blew and she quickly tucked her hands back into her fluffy jacket, her little face also buried into Ji Muye’s neck, blocking out the cold wind.
Lu Nuonuo ca to a very important realization today: don’t fight in winter; it’s too cold for the hands.
The black Maybach quickly drove away.
Separated by a door, Ming Yuan’s thoughts had just detached from her mories.
“Ningning, how does ti fly so fast?” she voiced her lant, seemingly without expecting an answer.
She no longer paid attention to the man at the door and turned to head back inside to the warm breakfast.
Lu Xining chatted with her briefly, then hung up the video call when a work call ca in.
By the ti she was free again, several hours had passed.
Thinking of what Ji Muye had said to Su Ting, a deep darkness settled in Lu Xining’s eyes.
When Little Dumpling returned, she wore a hairband and carried the latest model of a pink little fox in her arms, bouncing back into the house.
Ji Chao and Ji Ze both carried nurous bags, the rest were held by the trailing bodyguards.
As soon as they entered, Ji Ze couldn’t wait to share the day’s events with Lu Xining.
“Mom, Dad had to leave suddenly for a work call. Look, this is what Dad bought for us and our sister today.”
The black Maybach turned into a side street after leaving Jingzhou No.1 District and then directly entered the highway.
At that mont, the back seat of the car no longer bore Ji Muye’s silhouette.
A few minutes later, a discreet black car slowly drove out, heading in an opposite direction.
“Boss, that kid who hit our car earlier has run off.”
Ma Sai’s eyes vigilantly scanned the rearview mirror, always keeping an eye on his surroundings.
In the back seat, Ji Muye pinched the bridge of his nose, which was beginning to ache.
The man who had appeared inexplicably last ti, upon investigation, had no substantial backing, but harbored an inexplicable hostility towards him.
Ji Muye said indifferently, “Keep soone on it.”
After spending the weekend in Jingzhou with her two sons, Lu Xining took her daughter back to Yunqiao Village.
But before heading to Yunqiao Village, she first visited the experint base in Fuxian that was being actively developed, where she unexpectedly saw a sowhat familiar man on site.
Cheng Cang, the man who picked a quarrel with her halfway before.
“Look here, and there, everything has been changed according to your requirents. Don’t worry about the workers, there won’t be any skimping on materials. As long as you pay promptly, I guarantee the project will only finish ahead of schedule, never dragging behind.”
Xu Zhi was talking to her about construction matters.
Lu Xining frowned slightly and glanced at Xu Zhi, who was supervising on site, and asked, “Why is he here?”
“Who?”
Following her gaze, Xu Zhi turned around and realized, “Oh, you an him. When we were recruiting, he ca for an interview. I found his physical abilities were the best, quick and efficient, and the price was right, so I hired him on the spot. Is there a problem?”
“No big problem, just that he tried to kidnap once.”
Lu Xining’s gaze landed on the man’s eyes that fleetingly glanced over, pondering his intentions.
The local boss of Fuxian.
No matter how low he fell, he didn’t need to co here to move bricks.
Xu Zhi, who often spoke faster than she thought, blurted out, “Oh, kidnapping, well, that’s not much of a big deal… What! Kidnapping?”
Lu Xining gave her a glance and said directly, “You might as well shout it into his ear.”
“I’m not scared; it’s just that there was no need to shout into his ear.”
Curious, Xu Zhi leaned in, raised her eyebrows, and winked, “Could it be one of your admirers?”
Through her interactions with Xu Zhi over ti, Lu Xining found her straightforward personality to be fine except for being a bit too blunt.
She raised an eyebrow and replied, “Do you think I ca here to listen to your jokes?”
“Xu Zhi, I’m your client right now, if you want to get paid quickly, better get back to work now.”
“OK, Boss Lu, I’ll get right on it,” Xu Zhi shrugged her shoulders, took the blueprint in her hands, and continued supervising the works.
There was already a hint of winter in the air of Jingzhou.
Whereas Yun City, situated in the far south, had a more suitable temperature and a more comfortable climate.
Xu Zhi looked at Little Dumpling playing in a sandpit not far away, dressed in a doll collar shirt and orange overalls, busily digging sand with her toy shovel.
She thought of her son, Shen Jibai.
She heard he was now living with his grandparents, not staying with his philandering father, but she didn’t know how he was doing.
After changing out of her fluffy jacket into light clothing, Lu Nuonuo felt herself to be a happy and nimble child again.
She turned around and saw Lu Xining coming over, smiling and seeking praise, “Mom, look, Nuonuo has dug a big hole.”
“Nuonuo did great.”
Lu Xining gave her daughter so water, wiped the dirt from her face, and smiled, “Why did you dig such a big hole?”
Little Dumpling tilted her head, her tender little face full of serious thought.
After a while.
She cheerfully answered, “If anyone bullies Mom in the future, Nuonuo will bury them in it.”
“Water it every day, and when the flowers bloom in spring, Nuonuo will pick them and put them in a vase for Mom and godmother to see.”
Lu Xining: “???”
Could it be that she’s planning to plant hell flowers? This idea from my daughter seems a bit dangerous.
Thinking about Su Ting’s tall stature, Lu Nuonuo looked at the small hole she had dug and felt it needed to be bigger.
“Mom, you go ahead with your work, Nuonuo will dig a bit more.”
“…”
