For the past two years, he had been using the excuse of working overtime almost every day to evade her. Sometimes, working overtime was the only way to numb himself and prevent himself from thinking about his girl.
When he wasn't working overtime, he preferred going to a bar and getting drunk rather than going back to face her.
He knew that Mu Linfeng had always admired him, ever since he was a girl. However, at that time, he only had eyes for his little princess and couldn't tolerate anyone else. Furthermore, he originally didn't have any good feelings towards such an outstanding and perfect woman.
He had always believed that women should be more innocent and cute, more tender and innocent, so that men would feel pity for them, just like his cute little princess.
Two years ago, while he was happily dreaming about the future of his relationship with Mu, his father, Lin Youde, who was then the Deputy President of the Public Prosecutor's Office, was suddenly reported to have been ill-mannered and suspected of having taken bribes.
The entire Lin Family was thrown into chaos. Everyone said that Lin Youde had been ordered removed by a high-ranking official in the province because of his ostentatiousness. No one dared to help them.
Actually, he still had a big brother, Lin Wen Yu. It was just that after his big brother graduated from university, he joined a small company and became an ordinary employee.
On the other hand, he had gloriously become a public servant of the Public Prosecutor's Office. He had relied on his talent to make a name for himself in the talented Public Prosecutor's Office. Everyone had placed their hopes on him.
Later on, he realized that his big brother was the smartest and wisest person in the family. He had long seen through the various interests of the family, so he was willing to pretend to be ordinary.
He had secretly investigated Lin Wenyu and found out that he had already assumed the position of financial director in that company, but had always told his family that he was just a small clerk. Afterwards, he had successfully married the girl he liked and had married and given birth to a happy and blissful life.
At that time, the Mu family was at its peak, and the people at the top of the city feared Mu Yunhai.
On that snowy night, Mu Yunhai walked into his house with a cigarette in his mouth. Behind him was Mu Lingfeng, who wore a black coat and had a cold expression. Mu Yunhai told his mother that he was willing to help Lin Youde.
His mother agreed almost without thinking, wishing they would get married right away, and when he was about to take her girl out of the city, he refused.
His mother, who had always been gentle and demure, slapped him so hard that golden stars appeared in his eyes and there was a thick smell of blood coming from his mouth. He covered his face and glared at the group of people.
"I will not marry her. Even if the Lin Family is destroyed, I will not marry her!" I would rather die than marry a woman I don't love! "
Then, he saw Mu Lingfeng calmly walk forward to comfort his mother, who was trembling in anger. He waved his hand towards the back, and a few strong men in black stormed in and locked him up inside the house.
He was shouting and cursing like a madman. That night his voice was hoarse and his fingers were mangled from pounding on the door, but no one came to answer him.
He scolded Mu Lingfeng for being despicable and shameless, but she only replied indifferently.
"Lin Wencheng, you can say whatever you want to me. I only know that what I want will be obtained at all costs!"
At that moment, he felt that this woman called Mu Lingfeng was really scary. Of course, she had also succeeded in making him hate her to death. His big brother rushed back after hearing the news and wanted to plead for him, but he was kicked into the snow by those bodyguards. He finally lost all hope.
The next day he stood in the Civil Service, obtained a marriage certificate from a woman he did not know, and the next day there was a grand wedding. On the third he was released, replacing the former head of the Public Prosecutor's Office, and was promoted from vice president to head of the Public Prosecutor's Office.
Three days later, when he saw his girl again, things had changed. She was his sister-in-law, and he had become her second brother-in-law.
Then came endless pain. They didn't know each other, and he could only watch as she turned from an innocent girl to a cold, hard girl with thorns all over her body. His heart ached for her, but it was already useless.
Not only did her heart ache from being abandoned by him, but the ridicule she received from Mu Lingfeng and Mu Xiyan after being abandoned was the most fatal. This was because he was the only thing she could show off in front of them.
He tried to explain to her later, but she just pursed her lips indifferently,
"Second brother-in-law, perhaps this is fate!"
Then he turned around and resolutely left without a trace of nostalgia.
After many years, he would never be able to approach her again. She would smile at him and speak to him, but her eyes were filled with estrangement.
On the second day after he had parted from Gu Mo City, Mu Ran, who was in class at school, received a call from him.
Looking at the number that kept flashing on the screen, she hated it so much that her teeth itched. Because it was inconvenient for her to answer the call during class, she directly hung up.
He kept on calling, and she had to send him a short message with her finger, indignant.
"In class! Do not disturb me! "
The phone finally quietened down as Mentor Duo on the podium chattered nonstop. She sat next to the window, the warm sunlight shining in. She felt drowsy. At this moment, the sunlight was warm, making her feel as if time had passed peacefully.
She had no choice but to run back and attend her class. Luo Xintong, on the other hand, was full of admiration for her. She said that she had a strong and independent personality, and she couldn't help but wonder if Luo Xintong would develop towards her.
Ye Zichen's phone vibrated, breaking the silence of her life. She looked down and saw that it was actually his text message.
"How rare! I heard you skipped classes more than you did in class. Is the sun rising from the west today? "
She had the urge to throw her cell phone out the window.
With such a good working day, how could he have the leisure to send a ridiculing text message?
She simply ignored him and didn't even reply with a message. She continued to support herself by leaning against the wall as she enjoyed the sun bath. Then she said to herself, "Look at each other. Green Bamboo." There were bandits and noblemen who were like sparring or grinding. "Hexi, hexi, hexi, hexi, there are bandits and gentlemen, do not die!"
This was the ancient language course taught by Senior Apprentice Sister Mu. Of all the courses, this was the one she had studied the most diligently in, because Senior Apprentice Sister Mo's exams never allowed cheating. Thus, when she had time to spare, she would treat these awkward words as a tranquil medicine.
Just as she was about to say something, her phone vibrated again. Helplessly, she opened it.
"Let's go back for dinner tonight!"
There was no room for negotiation with such an arrogant tone.
She was furious, her fingers flying quickly as she fiercely pressed down on the keyboard. Just as she was about to reply him: Sorry to have to work tonight, his text message came in again.
"The old man is over there. Go and act for him!"
She seemed to have guessed that she would refuse, so he directly cut off all her thoughts. She recalled that the two of them had previously spoken, and that in certain necessary situations, they still had to cooperate with each other and act as they pleased.
She couldn't be angry, but she couldn't refuse. At this moment, the Annihilation Mentor on the podium called out her name and told her to recite "Wei Feng Qi Ao". She ignored death and gritted her teeth as she memorized the entire "Wei Feng Qi Ao".
After a while, she came back to her senses and said,
"Student Mu Ran, it's good that you recite it, but you don't need to have the ferocious look of someone who wants to eat me, right? Isn't it just to make you recite poems? Is there a need to hate me so much?"
The students in the large classroom immediately burst into laughter as they all turned to look at her. Her face was red with anger as she sat down and paid her respects to a certain person's ancestors and eight generations of ancestors in her heart.
"Got it!"
She unwillingly replied with three words.
Only then did Luo Xintong, who had been staring at her in surprise, realize that she had changed her cell phone. He grabbed it from her after she sat down and called out softly.
"Wah!" Xiao Yan, your phone is so domineering. What brand? Where did you buy it? "
"Ugh …"
Domineering? Mu Wenwen's forehead was streaked with black lines as he tried to fool Luo Sintong.
"Someone gave it to me. I don't know where I bought it from!"
When Luo Xingtong saw the dragon-shaped insignia on the back of the machine shell, she immediately understood. Her father was a gangster, so he had some knowledge about the rules of the Dragon Gate.
She leaned in close to her with an ambiguous smile.
"Low fat, could it be that Second Young Master Gu gave it to me?"
Although the words were a question, the tone was firm. It was likely that no one in the Dragon Gate would dare to give Second Young Master Gu's wife such a personal phone, other than Gu Mo Cheng himself.
Mu Wenwen rolled his eyes and grabbed his phone, putting it back in his pocket. He made it clear that he didn't want to continue this topic. Luo Xintong picked up a book to block her sharp gaze and continued the gossip.
"It seems like the relationship between you two husband and wife isn't that bad!"
