I woke up in the middle of the night. My whole body was extremely hot and my mouth was parched. I couldn't sleep at all.
He leaned against the back of the sofa, folded his hands across his chest, and closed his eyes.
This guy, his eyelashes are really long, I looked at Mu Huainan's face and couldn't help but be stunned, staring blankly, getting closer and closer.
As I leaned over him, I suddenly felt dizzy. I held my head and straightened up, swaying on the sofa beside him. I don't remember how much I drank or what I did, or even when I lost consciousness. This was the first time in his life that a piece had been broken and was being offered to Boss Mu Huainan.
I turned my head to look at him. The side of his face was so beautiful that it attracted jealousy. This kind of person, he was said to be more beautiful than a woman and more ruthless than a man, even without a blind spot at 360 degrees.
I can't remember when I got drunk, but I can remember all the things I did before I drank. I hold my head in my hands and frown deeply between my eyebrows.
I seem to be asking him if we used to know each other. But he didn't answer me clearly from beginning to end.
He was a full eight years older than me. When I was sent abroad, I was ten years old, and he was eighteen. No matter how you looked at it, he didn't look like a young plum or a horse.
What if he was eighteen and liked me when I was ten? And give me that plastic ring? Wasn't this too absurd? After all, his Mu family was a well-known family in the industry, so it wasn't necessary for him to give his son so little pocket money? At least buy a silver ring.
From this analysis, it seemed that I had misunderstood him.
But if he did not think this way, why did Mu Huainan have to take over the Lu family's mess? It was just as Shen Xiuyuan had said, with Mu Huainan's strength, the time he spent on cleaning up the Lu family's mess was enough for him to plan a few new projects.
Why waste time on me?
Speaking of beauty, I'm a little kid, so I wouldn't have much of a beauty, much less attract the kind of men that would be surrounded by beautiful ladies from high society. Speaking of the value of using it, I think Mu Huainan should have seen it in this year. Although I am very diligent in my studies, and perhaps have a little talent in business, it's still very difficult for me to reach the standard that he requests of me.
Therefore, after going around in a big circle, the only reason that we can explain Mu Huainan's actions is because we have known each other since long ago.
And I don't remember having a boy like that in my childhood, so he had something to do with the memory I had lost.
I couldn't help but to touch the ring on my finger. Remembering what Mu Huainan said, about how his childhood sweetheart suddenly abandoned him and left the country. He had a grudge, that he had been looking for her for so many years.
If I was really the childhood sweetheart of his, the rest of his life would probably be very miserable. After all, the outcome wouldn't be good if someone like Mu Huainan resented me.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shiver. A hint of coldness ran through my back, and suddenly, a deep male voice sounded in the empty room.
"You're awake?"
I swallowed and froze. Mu Huainan slowly sat up and turned to look at me.
"A headache?"
I nodded, then shook my head. I don't know if I'm "in pain" or "in pain."
Mu Huainan couldn't help but laugh out loud. He placed the blanket on his body to the side and leaned on me as he sat over. He suddenly raised his arms and placed his hands on my temples.
One after another, gently massaging.
"Your alcohol capacity isn't bad."
I didn't move, but nodded dumbly. I know I look like a wooden chicken right now, I must be really dumb, otherwise why would Mu Huainan keep on laughing.
Anyway, I didn't say anything. I knew that I was drunk and I was slow to react, so anything I said was wrong.
"But …" He smacked his lips and looked at me with a sly glint in his eyes.
I felt comfortable being massaged by him, and my nerves were slowly relaxing. Hearing him say that, I was startled and looked up abruptly.
"I... Which part of my wine is bad!? "
Mu Huainan suddenly stopped and started to count them one by one.
"Drinking crazy, spitting around, biting people and beating them up. Oh right, there's still a lot to say."
My mind was blank. I had no recollection of what he had said.
"Don't say it in such a vague way. Explain it to me clearly, I …" I was really conflicted in my heart. I wanted to know what I had done, but I was too embarrassed to hear these things from Mu Huainan's mouth.
After a long while, I said hesitantly, "What have I done?"
"You keep apologizing to me." Mu Huainan rubbed his body next to me again: "Lie on my back and continuously apologize."
My expression tightened. "Don't speak nonsense. Why should I apologize to you?"
"Say, if you had done something to let me down in the past, apologize to me. Also, ask me not to care about it, don't take revenge for the grudges from back then on the current you. You said that you were forced to do it and that you were very passive."
The expression in my eyes when I looked at Mu Huainan, didn't seem like he was making things up anymore. In the face of my own rumors and rumors, even I was a little speechless for a moment.
"I have a question." Mu Huainan suddenly leaned over. Originally, his arm and mine were already touching, but now he suddenly turned around and pressed his entire body down in front of me. I felt my face heat up because of his breath.
"Yes. Can't you say it properly … " I pushed him gently. I knew I couldn't push him away, so I didn't have much strength to push him. After all, after going through the previous two lessons, I understood that struggling with Mu Huainan was simply a useless effort. It would waste my strength and even stimulate him to attack even more frantically.
"Am I that petty in your eyes? All these years, and you still want revenge? "
I couldn't help but nod.
I feel that Mu Huainan is a petty person, that I have such a grudge against him, and have held back for a long time. So when I heard his evaluation of me, I couldn't help but want to agree.
However, I quickly calmed down and shook my head with all my might. "No, no. Boss Mu is magnanimous and has never bothered with me before. Hehehehehe …"
I'm laughing so hard and fake that I can't stand it.
"Err …"
Suddenly, my cheeks were pinched with Mu Huainan's left hand and my strength wasn't small. My mouth formed the word "O", trembling twice and unable to laugh.
The room was very quiet. The air conditioner was very cold, but no matter how cold it was, it was not as cold as Mu Huainan's hands.
"What happened in the past is already in the past. No matter what happened, everything became the past and will not change." Mu Huainan pinched my face, using some of his strength to relax, as though he was pinching a balloon that was filled with water, enjoying the process.
His pinching made me feel sore and uncomfortable, but at this critical moment, it wasn't appropriate for me to start a conflict with him. What if he breaks my teeth when he gets excited...
Mu Huainan has mania after all...
"I will let bygones be bygones, so you don't need to take it to heart."
From what Mu Huainan said, you think that I am that childhood sweetheart of his? This is all just a small matter. The most important thing is that I don't have to worry about it. It's obviously the Boss Mu who is holding onto it from the beginning to the end!
This person was truly forgetful.
I couldn't help but laugh.
"Hehehehe …"
He didn't even laugh twice before pinching his face again.
"The past is the past. You should consider our future."
"I... We. "Two?" Why am I a little confused? I blinked my eyes and wrote in confusion, "Future …?"
How can I have a future with this guy?!
Mu Huainan squinted his eyes: "Have you forgotten how much money you owe me?"
I was startled, but immediately felt a chill in my heart. I understood, I understood everything, and from the beginning, Mu Huainan had set a trap for me, he wanted to take revenge, to take revenge on me for leaving without saying anything. What are you still talking about? Ah pei! [That is clearly just playing me out, alright?]
Unfortunately, I didn't dare to say anything, and could only glare at him angrily. Gritting my teeth, I said: "Mu Huainan, did I fall for your trick?"
"You're the one who started crying for my dad."
… ….
My heart sank when he didn't deny it. This was a bit hard to accept.
"This is your trap." I couldn't help but clench my fists. "Then let me fall into the trap bit by bit!"
Mu Huainan shook his head.
"That's not right."
"What's wrong!" You are despicable! Don't deny it! "
"I'll do my trap properly, yet you still want to rush over and jump inside. I didn't have good intentions to pull you up, so you called me despicable. Lu Weian, you brat, you are a little unreasonable aren't you?"
I was so dumb that I couldn't make sense out of it.
"I didn't tie you up, and I didn't threaten you. You have to call me father, and the one who asked me to teach you how to do business is also you. You swear to study hard, and you'll pay my debt in the future."
Mu Huainan's voice was light and calm, as if all of this was happening naturally and not intentionally.
Only I could see that in the night, his tail had finally revealed itself without any concealment. This old fox, you would think that he was ignorant of the affairs of the world and was indifferent to everything in the world, but in reality, no one knew what he wanted, and he would even less reveal it. He would only quietly approach his prey and take aim at its weak point, not attack it, but quietly wait for an opportunity, for his prey to take the initiative to find him.
I don't know if he was trying it all out, but at least I took the bait. In this seamless trap, I lost a lot of money and became the prey that couldn't be described with any bitterness.
