Chapter 322: Chapter 322 I Quite Like You
After dinner.
An Rui kept pestering Wan Muqi with various questions.
The man also patiently answered them one by one.
An Mi went back to her room after finishing her al.
But An Rui’s room is just next to hers.
And the two of them made her speechless; they could have talked inside the room, but they insisted on sitting on the balcony.
Her room’s balcony and An Rui’s balcony were separated by just a small gap.
Even if she closed the window, she could still hear their conversation on the balcony.
Now, she didn’t know why, but whenever she heard Wan Muqi’s voice, she felt very irritated.
This irritation arose from the unfamiliar emotions she felt after hearing the content of his conversation with her father.
An Mi tried to force herself not to think about it by reading.
Before, whenever she felt upset, she would use this thod to adjust herself and calm her mind gradually.
But this ti, she found that reading was ineffective for her, it had no effect at all.
The more she read, the more irritable she beca.
Especially when those few words echoed in her ears…
She rembered what Chen Jin had said before, Jinjin said that n are fickle and deceitful.
It turns out, this statent was proven true.
At this mont, An Mi truly understood what they had said about how being in a relationship can cause big emotional fluctuations and sotis impair normal thinking.
Isn’t she just like that now?
She hasn’t even started yet, and she’s already like this, what if she actually began?
She glanced at the book in front of her and furrowed her brows.
It seems, dating really isn’t suitable for her.
…
The next day, dawn broke softly.
It was just getting light, the air was misty outside, and a heavy rain had fallen in the middle of last night, leaving the air fresher but with a slight chill.
At six o’clock, An Mi went out for a run.
An hour and a half later, she returned and encountered her father who had just gotten up.
Seeing her in sportswear, with the hair on her forehead still wet, Mr. An asked, “Mimi, why did you get up so early? Did you go for a workout?”
“Dad.”
“Yeah, I couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d go sweat it out.”
Her physical fitness had gotten increasingly better; running ten kiloters back and forth without feeling breathless.
This was all thanks to her sister arranging for Fei Yue and Fei Xu to train her during her winter break.
“Why couldn’t you sleep?” Mr. An furrowed his brows and asked, “Is sothing not feeling right?”
“Dad, don’t worry, there’s nothing wrong with my body, maybe it’s just the pressure from studying lately,” An Mi casually found an excuse to say.
Mr. An said, “You don’t have to put so much pressure on yourself. The family doesn’t need you to contribute anything; you just have to do things according to your own preferences. Just try your best. Just maintain good health and happiness, Dad and your little brother are here for everything else.”
An Mi joked, “Dad, I know you can support for a lifeti, but I can’t expect An Rui to support for a lifeti.”
Mr. An said, “Why can’t he? You’re his older sister, as a little brother, he should always protect you.”
At this mont, An Rui, still in his dreams, dreamt that he was sneezing frequently… but after turning over, he continued to sleep.
“Alright, go take a shower and co down for breakfast soon,” Mr. An patted her shoulder.
“Okay, Dad.”
…
After breakfast, Mr. An asked, “Mimi, do you have any other plans today?”
An Mi: “No, but I want to visit my sister and see Xixi while I’m at it.”
It’s been several days since she had seen that little one, and she’s been missing him.
Mr. An: “Alright, later you can take my car, I’ll drive you there.”
An Mi made a sound in agreent.
Then, she asked another question: “Dad, today is Saturday, are you still going to the office?”
Mr. An: “No, it’s that Dad arranged to et Mr. Wan to discuss so matters.”
An Mi picked up the cup and took a sip of water, “Oh.”
Discuss so matters, what matters?
Could it be about the matter they talked about last night?
Is it being resolved so quickly?
Are they going to et so soon?
Indeed, sotis n’s words really can’t be trusted!
…
Mr. An dropped her off at Moon Gift Villa, sat for a while, spent so ti with his grandchild, then left.
Su He and Jiang Yan were both busy with things and had left ho early, leaving only Su Baobao and the housekeeper at ho.
Su He had initially wanted Uncle Zhong to take the little one to the old house to accompany the Old Madam, but the Old Madam had inford them early in the morning that she wasn’t ho today, as she went out to hang out with her lady friends.
The Old Madam’s life has been colorful lately; she occasionally arranges outings with her old sisters to see the scenery and the like.
Jiang Yan and Su He didn’t stop her; as long as she’s happy, it’s good.
“Auntie, what brought you to play with today?”
“Because Auntie missed you.”
Seeing the adorable little one lifted An Mi’s spirits slightly.
“Where do you want to go today? Auntie will accompany you anywhere.”
An Mi gently pinched his small cheek.
The little guy rolled his eyes and said, “Auntie, let’s go find Xuanxuan.”
Even though Su Yuxuan is older than him, he always calls her little sister.
An Mi nodded, “Sure, let’s put on our shoes and leave.”
…
Before setting off, An Mi had called Sang Luo.
Sang Luo was overjoyed to hear that she was taking the two little ones out to play.
She also had things to do today and was just worrying about having no company for Xuanxuan.
An Mi’s call ca just in ti.
After picking up Xuanxuan, An Mi left with them.
Both kids wanted to go to the amusent park, so An Mi took them there.
Fortunately, Fei Yue was there to help her share the effort of watching them.
Otherwise, she couldn’t manage looking after both by herself.
So amusent rides required adults to accompany, and she couldn’t be in two places at once.
They played until one in the afternoon when the two little ones finally said they were hungry, and she took them to eat.
It was quite a coincidence that they ran into Ye Xuan at the restaurant.
As the place was sowhat crowded, Fei Yue went in first to check if there were places available, and An Mi waited outside with the two children until they could go in.
“An Mi, what a coincidence.”
Ye Xuan ca to play here with friends and also just happened to pick this restaurant.
An Mi also found it quite coincidental.
She said with a light smile, “It really is quite coincidental.”
Ye Xuan saw her holding a child in each hand, “Who are these?”
An Mi simply responded, “Oh, these are my sister’s and brother’s kids.”
“Xixi, Xuanxuan, say hello.”
The two little ones called out indifferently, “Hello, brother.”
Ye Xuan found them very adorable.
He was just about to touch Su Yimo’s head with his hand, but the next second, the little guy dodged away.
Ye Xuan’s hand froze mid-air.
It was montarily awkward.
“…”
“Sorry, he doesn’t like being touched by strangers,” An Mi explained.
Ye Xuan didn’t realize, he could only force a smile and said, “It’s okay, it’s my fault, I should have asked more clearly.”
“However, your family’s looks are quite high, your sister and your brother’s children are all so good-looking and cute.”
An Mi didn’t know what to say, she could only mutter a thanks: “Thank you.”
“Hey, Ye Xuan, aren’t you going to introduce us to this beauty?”
“Right, we still don’t know when you got such a beauty by your side, you’ve kept her hidden pretty well.”
“Hi, beauty, hello, I am Ye Xuan’s friend, my na is Huang Qi, are you Ye Xuan’s girlfriend that he has been hiding?”
“…”
Several people around Ye Xuan started chattering after seeing An Mi.
An Mi found their faces unfamiliar, probably not people from their dical departnt.
She had no particular opinion about them, but she didn’t like the tone and way these few spoke.
Seeing An Mi’s displeased expression, Ye Xuan quickly explained: “Sorry, An, my friends are quite enthusiastic and talkative, but they an no harm, don’t take it to heart. They are not from our A University, they are from the neighboring C University.”
An Mi didn’t say much, just “oh”-ed, but she also explained to the few people in front: “Ye Xuan and I are just classmates, that’s all.”
“Exactly, don’t talk nonsense, An and I are just classmates.”
Ye Xuan also explained to his friends.
“Miss An Mi.”
At that mont, Fei Yue walked out from inside.
Fei Yue scanned the few young n in front of her, thinking they were there to cause trouble.
An Mi: “Fei Yue, are there any seats available inside?”
Fei Yue: “Yes, there are.”
An Mi: “Then let’s go inside, these two little ones are so hungry their stomachs are growling.”
An Mi just nodded at Ye Xuan and then turned around and went inside with the two little ones.
Ye Xuan watched An Mi’s retreating figure, a trace of disappointnt flashing in his eyes.
The man who was patting his shoulder said: “Hey, don’t look anymore, she has gone.”
“This beauty seems quite aloof, you don’t really like this type, do you?”
“I actually like that short-haired beauty who ca out behind just now more, can you help ask your classmate for that sister’s WeChat?”
Ye Xuan: “No, hurry up, let’s go see if there are any seats, you’re not hungry, but we are.”
He doesn’t even have An Mi’s WeChat, how could he help him get it, seriously.
Although their class has a group chat, An Mi’s WeChat is the hardest one to get added to.
“…”
On the other side.
Mr. An did indeed take Wan Muqi to et his friend.
When they arrived, Wan Muqi was already regretting it, but he had already agreed to Mr. An and it was difficult to say no.
However, he learned from Mr. An that An Mi had taken the two children out for fun.
“Mr. Wan, can I call you Mu Qi? Calling you Mr. Wan feels quite formal and not conducive to our communication.”
These words were said by Song Yafei.
Song Yafei is the daughter of Mr. An’s friend he ntioned last night.
At that mont, Mr. An and Mr. Song were playing chess on the other side, leaving space for the two young people.
Song Yafei talks quite directly, and her tone also carried a superior air.
“Actually, I quite like you, your temperant ets my spousal standards, I think we are quite compatible, if you are willing, we can give it a try.”
Wan Muqi’s brows subconsciously furrowed.
He only now realized that Jiang You’s suggestion was a trap!
He really felt like he was lifting a rock only to drop it on his own feet!
She talks straightforwardly, and he speaks even more straightforwardly, cutting to the quick without mincing words.
“Sorry, I’m not interested! Moreover, Miss Song, you do not et my standards for a spouse, nor do I think we are compatible.”
Song Yafei’s expression slightly paused.
No man has ever actively rejected her before, it was always her rejecting others.
Interesting!
Song Yafei didn’t get angry; instead, she smiled and said, “Mr. Wan, I find that the more you reject , the more I want to conquer you.”
Wan Muqi: “…”
He slightly furrowed his brows and thought to himself: Does this woman have so serious illness?
“Mr. Wan, I heard from Uncle An that you don’t have a girlfriend at the mont, so I should be able to pursue you, right? That wouldn’t be illegal, right?”
“…”
Wan Muqi did not respond to her words.
All he wanted now was to quickly get out of here.
But what excuse should he use?
If Mr. An weren’t here, he could just leave, but he had to give Mr. An so face.
Just then, his phone rang.
It was from his assistant.
“Excuse , I need to take this call.”
Having said that, he imdiately got up and left.
As he walked, he answered the phone: “Okay, I got it. I’ll be back soon.”
The assistant on the other end of the phone was bewildered; he hadn’t asked him to co back.
All he did was update him on the progress of a case from yesterday.
After the call, Wan Muqi turned around and gave Mr. An a heads-up.
Mr. An was very understanding, and so was Mr. Song.
Mr. An said: “Alright, go and take care of your work. There wasn’t anything important today anyway, don’t let us hold up your work.”
Wan Muqi: “Uncle An, President Song, let’s et up another ti when we’re free.”
Having said that, he left.
His hurried steps seed as if he truly had sothing important to attend to.
Song Yafei waited for him to leave before she walked over.
Upon seeing her, Mr. Song asked: “Feifei, how did your chat go with Mr. Wan?”
Song Yafei sat down on the empty seat and said, “Quite well, we get along very well.”
Mr. Song was delighted upon hearing this.
He was very satisfied with Wan Muqi.
Both in terms of his personal character and his family background, Song Anmin was very pleased.
He was well aware of his daughter’s high standards, otherwise she wouldn’t still be without a boyfriend at twenty-eight.
So, it was no small feat for him to catch her eye.
“An, you really have a way with these things.”
Mr. An said: “It’s all because of the outstanding daughter you raised. I didn’t do much, just facilitated a bit.”
Song Anmin: “Regardless, if this works out, you’ll be a great contributor.”
Mr. An looked at Song Yafei and said: “Yafei, keep it up, Uncle An believes in you.”
Song Yafei smiled and responded: “Okay, Uncle An.”
“By the way, An, how old is your second daughter?” Song Anmin asked.
Mr. An: “She just started her sophomore year in college.”
He knew what Song Anmin ant.
He had indeed thought about introducing Wan Muqi to his own daughter, but the ten-year age gap between Wan Muqi and An Mi, and her still being in school, made him think it was not urgent.
Besides, a good daughter need not worry about marrying.
“…”
After Wan Muqi left, he imdiately had soone check An Mi’s current exact location.
But he couldn’t just go there rashly; he still needed to think of an excuse.
He also wondered if she was upset about what he had deliberately agreed to in front of her the previous night.
He knew he shouldn’t have listened to that girl Jiang You’s bad idea.
Shortly after, his phone rang again.
“Mr. Wan, we found her. Miss An Mi is currently at a restaurant called Xun Xiang Lai.”
