C68

I didn't know why Shen Xiuyuan suddenly came over to our house, but when Mu Huainan knocked on the door and came in, he brought back with him the gift Shen Xiuyuan prepared for my eighteenth birthday.

It's a rock band I like a lot.

The boy, as I remember it, had clear eyes, as if this meant graduation month, full of youth and freedom, with a clear and clear blue.

My heart was in pain, and being laughed at like that by Shen Xiuyuan just now, I angrily turned around and returned to my room.

Mu Huainan followed me in, placed the envelope containing the admission ticket on my desk, then came over and sat down on the bed.

"Are you not satisfied with the present?"

I didn't answer, just glared at him. A hand covered the scar on his neck, but it was useless.

The red marks were all over the place.

Mu Huainan finally understood, he finally understood why I was so angry. He didn't laugh, but lowered his eyes and apologized to me with utmost seriousness.

I was stunned, but I still didn't give up. How could I forgive him that easily?

"Anthea, I'm sorry. I really tried to restrain myself." Mu Huainan had lived for so many years, yet this was the first time he apologized to others in such a low voice.

Actually, I know how careful he is with his kiss, but I'm angry with him for occasionally losing control.

"You made me laugh at Uncle Xiu Yuan!" I turned my head back to him.

Still angry.

He laughed and put his arms around me.

"If he dares to laugh at you, I will break his teeth."

I thought about it and thought it was funny, and then I couldn't help laughing.

He smiled at me and took me in his arms.

"It's still not over yet, you made me into something like this. When I go to work at the company, they ask me what's wrong, so I just say my family's little sheep bullied me."

I blew cold air through my nose.

"You think you don't dare?!"

I opened my mouth and bit down on his arm.

Extra force.

Instead of dodging, he hugged me tighter.

"Bite, bite. As long as I am safe and vent my anger, I will let you bite for the rest of your life."

I looked up and lunged at him, biting him on the neck.

The belly full of grievance and rage, was accumulated on my teeth, and was completely vented on Mu Huainan.

He let go of me, too, and I looked at him, the collar slightly open, a red mark that was almost as ambiguous as mine.

I regret it again.

This isn't telling people from the company, Mu Huainan and I …

Ah ah ah ah ah, disgraceful! This was too embarrassing!

That afternoon, he wouldn't let go of me, and I was not used to being stuck with you all afternoon when the never-changing workaholic suddenly became idle.

"When are you going back to Paris?" I asked him. In the past, he always left on the same day he came back, but at the latest the next day. This time, I don't think he had any intention of leaving until now.

"I'll accompany you for a little longer." His head was tucked into my neck. "I can't bear to leave you."

I spat out a mouthful of blood in my heart. How is this guy not willing to give up on me? It's obvious that he is not willing to give up on me …

Forget it, I feel ashamed to talk about it.

"Where do you want to go to university? Have you made up your mind?" he asked me.

I shook my head, not knowing where to go.

"Let's go to California. I'm going to open a new company there, just in time to accompany you."

Hearing Mu Huainan talk about California, I subconsciously looked at the envelope on the table. And that young man sweating in the sun.

I shook my head.

"Why? Have you been to California? Don't you like it?"

"I want to stay at home." I've been out of the country too long and I don't want to go out.

My parents are both at home, so why are we going out?

"Alright." Mu Huainan whispered into my ear, "Then I will move the company over to the domestic area."

I know he did it to keep me company, but.

"Uncle Huainan, don't be so good to me."

I did it myself once. Next time, I really don't know how to repay him.

But Mu Huainan calmly changed the topic.

"Did you go to the Surging Firm last week?"

"Right."

"How do you feel?"

I told him all the details, and about the extra investment.

"What do you think?"

"I've been researching for so many days. This project's stats are very good. There's no way I'm going to lose it, but …"

"But what?"

"But our teacher said that if there was such a good project, there would usually be traps that you couldn't see on the surface."

"Then, after studying for so many days, have you found any traps?"

I shook my head.

"Then let's change the method to discover the trap."

"Another method?" I thought about it. "Then I'll add it, right? Only with additional follow-up can we learn more about this project before we discover the trap behind these seemingly good data. "

Mu Huainan didn't speak. I knew he wanted me to decide for myself.

I decided to invest more. On the day of signing the contract, Zhao Kun suggested that we make a party.

I didn't know much about the rules of their circle, so I didn't dare say anything and let him do it.

At the royal ball, not only were there some important figures from the overflowing companies, there were also representatives from the cooperating party's Miluo Corporation. Zhao Kun had even invited Mu Huainan.

And there was Mu Huainan, there was also a reporter.

I don't think I invested much in it, but all the money I made from my bank account this year went back into it.

I don't think I can afford the money for this big party.

That day, Fang Wu came along with her parents. It was probably because Old Fang wanted to bring his daughter into this circle, so he brought her along to some public events.

After meeting Fang Wu before we graduated, we had no contact at all.

Actually, it's only been a few months since I've seen her, but when I see her again, I feel that there's a huge change.

She was wearing a beige evening dress with a back that made her look mature and feminine. Many of the bosses couldn't help but look at her, but I felt that the dress didn't suit her very well.

It was the first time the girl's skin had been exposed under the spotlight. It was strange to be stared at by so many greasy eyes.

Standing with her, I felt like I was more than five years younger.

Mu Huainan was more polite when he said that he had to dress properly for this kind of event. But I also wore only a white jumpsuit. The thing that broke through was that the dress was a sling, and I'd shaved my armpit hair for it.

The makeup I painted was very light, just so that it didn't look so pale when the light fell on my face. However, Fang Wu was different. Her mouth was painted very red.

Like a rose with thorns.

I held Mu Huainan and walked into the venue. She and her parents were walking towards us.

"Hello, Mubai. I am Xiao Fang from Miluo. This is my daughter Fang Wu."

The recommendation was too obvious for him to make, he had only said that it was Xiao Fang, and he did not introduce the company in detail, but when it came to Fang Wu, he had even emphasized on the topic.

Fang Wu has always been a very generous person, but when I face her, I can clearly see the panic in her eyes.

It was the kind of caution that was too precious to be controlled.

He was afraid that the other party would hate him if he made a mistake.

But she didn't understand Mu Huainan. This guy, was able to make her hate him. There were only a few people in this world.

Mu Huainan was very perfunctory. He had always been like this, cold and indifferent towards everyone, with no signs of being interested.

Fang Wu reached out his hand, wanting to shake hands to show his goodwill, but he only nodded indifferently in response, and did not extend a hand.

The situation was a little awkward. Seeing that Fang Wu's face was turning redder and redder, I couldn't bear to look at her, so I stood up and shook her hand.

"Long time no see."

Fang Wu was startled, and quickly retracted her hand. She only glanced at me once before quickly shifting her gaze.

She didn't seem to have the patience to talk to me. She didn't even greet me with a greeting.

Mu Huainan came over and held my hand.

that Fang Wu had just "disdained" the hand that was being pulled away from.

"Do you want some dessert?" he asked me softly.

He was as gentle as if he was at home.

I felt a sharp look on my back. I didn't know who was looking at me, but it was as if everyone was looking at me.

I looked away and whispered, "Don't do that."

It was okay to be at home, but to be watched by so many people outside made the atmosphere between him and me so ambiguous, so uncomfortable.

He pursed his lips and said, "Okay."

I was still taken by his hand to eat dessert.

Halfway through the gala, I finally understood the meaning of this gala when I saw that Mu Huainan and Zhao Kun's side was filled with countless toasts.

Money is just a secondary goal. Inviting the media to come here is just to let more industry insiders know that Mu Huainan is involved in this project. I have become his most prized disciple.

There are many kinds of guesses about my relationship with him, but as long as there's a connection, it's news.

Without needing to invest much money, the inner circle would definitely take care of this newbie, Zhao Kun, and help him out a lot.

Because Zhao Kun's project was invested by me, and since Mu Huainan and I were participating together, it told everyone that I am representing Mu Huainan.

Naturally, everyone came to hug their thighs.

A profiteer, a profiteer.

I watched on from the side, as countless people came to toast me. At the start, when Mu Huainan and I were together, he helped me block all of them.

But later, when he and I were separated by enthusiastic colleagues, I had to drink a few glasses of red wine.

I was slowly getting dizzy.

As the crowd moved and stopped in front of me, I felt that my body was a little unstable.

I don't know if this is the feeling of being drunk, but my body feels a little tired, but my spirit is exceptionally excited. Holding half a glass of red wine, he wandered around the venue until he fell into someone's arms in a daze.

It was hard, but it still tasted familiar.

Looking up, he saw the black faced Mu Huainan.

I smiled at him stupidly, raised my hand, and raised my glass. "Drink!"

Instead, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his arms, letting me lean against him while he took the glass from my hand and set it on the table beside him.

"Who let you drink."

It's a bit fierce, so I turned my head to look at him, feeling wronged. "I'm already 18!" Why can't I drink anymore? "

He sighed. He opened his mouth to say something.

What I heard instead was Fang Wu's voice.
