The curtains were tied on both sides. It was about two or three in the afternoon, and there was still sunlight in the study, with the warm light enveloping the two people.
In this ho, or more specifically, in front of Mrs. Mu, Mu Jin Huan’s sharp features always appeared gentle.
The deep black eyes carried a hint of a smile.
His thin lips parted gently, speaking unhurriedly, "The words I expect to hear are not just ’thank you.’
The man’s fingertips, calloused and rough, brushed over the skin, creating a sensation that was neither quite itchy nor uncomfortable, so Nan Wan did not move.
"I was just saying it casually. Can’t you also just listen casually?"
Although she appeared lazy on the outside, she whispered to herself again in her heart.
Mu Huan, thank you.
"Uninteresting, you can watch it yourself," Mu Jin Huan’s tone remained unchanged, though the warmth in his voice faded a little.
As he spoke, he withdrew the arm resting on the woman’s shoulder and got up to work.
"Oh co on, how can the grand president of the Mu Family be so petty?" Before the man could take a step, Nan Wan had already swiftly wrapped her arms around his slim waist, looking up at him.
Her pretty brows furrowed, "Didn’t you just say yesterday that as long as you are with , nothing feels boring? Were you lying to ?"
Not only was she turning the tables, but she was also being unreasonable.
Although Mu Jin Huan wasn’t angry, he maintained that dignified and elegant deanor.
His bony fingers pinched the woman’s smooth chin, his lips curving into a malicious grin, his dark eyes half-smiling, "Mrs. Mu, you’re already a grown woman. Don’t you know yet that you can’t trust what a man says?"
Mrs. Mu wasn’t very cute today.
Nan Wan remained in her previous position, half-kneeling on the soft sofa, looking up at the man’s handso face.
For nearly a minute, she didn’t react, as if she was assessing the truth of his words.
After contemplating, she blinked.
Releasing her arms from around the man’s waist, she snuggled back into the sofa, continuing to watch the video playing on the screen, relaxed and languid, "Alright then, I’ll go visit Grandma this afternoon and won’t be back tonight."
Upon hearing her words, Mu Jin Huan raised an eyebrow, suddenly finding Mrs. Mu’s cuteness re-erging.
Leaning closer to her.
His right hand propped against the back of the sofa, his left hand pinching the slightly fleshy cheek that no longer appeared as skin and bones, speaking slowly and deliberately, "Even if ten of the current you were combined, your emotional intelligence wouldn’t even asure up to a third of Grandma’s."
Before six o’clock arrives, Grandma will have kicked you out.
Nan Wan expressionlessly swatted away the man’s hand, "What do you an?"
Is picking on her really that enjoyable???
"Don’t be self-conscious," Mr. Mu’s smile deepened, sincerely comforting Mrs. Mu, "In fact, I rather hope you beco even more clumsy, ideally to the point where you can’t take care of yourself without . I’d like that even more."
Nan Wan, "..."
Oh, when a lazy life is lived for too long, even the desire to flip over wears away.
The daily routine of eating and sleeping has left the slothful person without temper, blinking, "Let think about it."
She never would have thought her life with Nan Wan would be lived backward, receiving treatnt she never enjoyed in childhood, which Mr. Mu now provides in full.
Before sleeping last night, he even took the storybook prepared for Pea and Jiu Jiu to narrate her a fairy tale of Snow White.
Mr. Mu’s exact words were, "You shouldn’t feel embarrassed or ashad, just see it as practice. This way, I can familiarize myself with the entire book, which will co in handy when the kids grow older."
His reasoning was impeccable, leaving her unable to refute.
Who couldn’t act silly?
With a bit more effort, she might just surpass the adorably silly Little Pea.
Perhaps it was the excellent sunlight, or maybe the way the woman blinked was simply too pleasant to behold, so Mu Jin Huan sat back on the sofa, enfolding her in his arms, "Say sothing nice, and I’ll watch the video with you."
His slender fingers brushed away the strands of hair clinging to her cheek with gentle grace, "For as long as you want to watch, I’ll stay with you, okay?"
A low and soft voice, containing an alluring quality.
The sunlight was just right, and the atmosphere was perfect.
The warm light stread through the floor-to-ceiling windows, creating an orange-toned environnt around the sofa, with Mu Jin Huan sitting on the outer side, blocking out most of the sunlight.
Although his sharp features were hidden in the shadow away from the light, his entire body seed to be surrounded by halos of light.
