Mu Huainan's way of doing things made me feel very uncomfortable. I held my mouth and grumbled: "With this mess, I don't have any way to stay in this circle anymore. Why are you still treating me as a spokesperson, who would even dare to use me as a director?"
"An'an." He called me.
"If you want to be the spokesperson, why didn't you tell me?"
"Moreover, you are perfectly fine as some kind of spokesperson. If you want the Lu, you can go home. The Lu is all yours."
I think I won't believe a single word that Mu Huainan said.
"I'm already married. The Peng Family is my home."
Mu Huainan looked at me and suddenly laughed bitterly.
"Right, my An'an has grown up. He's married." He seemed to be muttering, but it also seemed like he was blaming himself.
"I was originally going to the dock to do a trade. I saw your poster on the street saying that you were doing an advertisement here today. I couldn't hold it in and wanted to come up to see you."
"Hai." He heaved a heavy sigh. "After so many years, I still can't see you knocking against her wall. My heart ached, so I couldn't help but teach her a lesson."
His misty eyes looked at me. Unlike Mu Huainan's, his eyes were filled with pity.
"Do you hate me so much that you marry scum and come out to hurt yourself just to get revenge on me?"
I smiled bitterly.
"Hurt yourself?"
Who would like to hurt themselves?
"Speaking of injuries, no one is more excessive than you were seven years ago."
Mu Huainan's face paled by quite a bit, and his breathing was also somewhat unstable as well. I looked at him for a long time without being able to say anything, and my heart ached for no reason.
I was like that. No matter what happened, no matter what he did to me, I couldn't hate him.
I hate myself for being so useless.
I didn't dare to say anything else for fear that he would get sick from anger.
He could not help but ask worriedly, "Did you bring the medicine?"
He took my hand and placed it on his heart.
"My safety is my medicine."
I wanted to pull away, but I was afraid of hurting him.
"Accompany me to the dock to take a look at the goods, okay?"
"I can refuse."
He looked at me and smiled.
"Sure." Then he added, "I didn't bring any medicine."
This old fox, he's so smart, he'll take me for granted, and I should be played around by him. He's sure that I can't let him go, that I can't hate him, so he's so confident, so casual with my feelings.
Because I was already eaten by him.
I followed Mu Huainan to the pier, and sat in Shen Xiuyuan's car.
Everything was just like ten years ago, when Mu Huainan's stuttering sickness had yet to be treated, he would use his eyes to do anything, and find Shen Xiuyuan whenever he wanted to speak.
I fell into deep thought, I didn't think that Mu Huainan would be like me.
He kept holding my hand in his lap.
"Remember, the first time I brought you to the dock to look at goods was ten years ago, when you were only fifteen."
I tilted my head toward the window, not wanting to remember.
Memories can only make people back down, they can make me look straight at the girl who was once so stupid.
Foolish to the point of jumping into Mu Huainan's embrace step by step.
I didn't say anything, but Shen Xiuyuan answered back with a mischievous smile.
"At that time, Mu Huainan drove you to my apartment to pick me up. The first time I saw you, I thought that Mu Huainan had changed his taste bar.
When Mu Huainan was talking to Shen Xiuyuan, his tone had clearly become much harder than before, "You talk too much."
"But at that time, I still didn't understand. Mu Huainan never brought women to the pier. After so many years, you are the only exception."
I couldn't help but turn my head and accidentally met Mu Huainan's pitch-black eyes. I immediately turned my head around.
"Today is my second time bringing a woman to the dock." Mu Huainan said as he pinched the center of my palm.
"An'an, it's not all thanks to you, I don't even know how long it's been since Mu Huainan left."
Shen Xiuyuan said, "This workaholic, in the past, when he had you around, he would occasionally go out to play and eat since he had to take care of you. Ever since you left, he has never stepped foot outside of the door.
"How can I not go out?" I knew how crazy Mu Huainan was when he worked, so I couldn't help but say, "You need to go out and bask in the sunlight more so that you can recover faster."
He held my hand and lowered his eyes. "This illness can't be cured. There's a lot of people going out. It's so annoying."
"What's not good?!" I don't know why, but I got anxious. When I shouted in a low voice, even I was shocked.
"An'an." He waved at me. "Come here."
I frowned and leaned over.
He put his arm around my shoulders and took me in his arms.
Me and him, just like years ago.
I looked at him. The clothes I was wearing were old.
"No matter what, he's still the Owner of He Fang and is the president of the Mu Group. Why would he wear such cheap clothes. Furthermore, he's very old. I don't think it's shameful."
Instead, he tugged at his sleeve and looked at it, actually smiling foolishly.
"I won't wear it when you come back."
I panicked. "Why is it that I can't go back?!"
"Only by wearing these clothes can I have the feeling of being by your side. Since you've come back, I don't need to deceive myself like this."
"Mu Huainan!" I finally couldn't hold it in anymore. "What do you mean? Do you think it's funny? If I really cherish me and am afraid of losing me, why did I do such a cruel thing seven years ago?! Do you know that you almost killed me! If not for Peng Haobai saving me, do you know that there were only two people who died seven years ago, Mu Huainan? " "If not for Peng Haobai, then not only would you have killed your own flesh and blood, you would have killed everything along with me."
Just as he finished speaking, Mu Huainan coughed violently.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough …"
"An'an!" Shen Xiuyuan's voice from the front row was a bit hard: "Your Uncle Huainan's body, you dare to provoke him?! Come on, there's hot water in the thermos. Pour some for him. "
"Oh, okay."
I hastily filled the thermos with hot water and carefully brought it over for Mu Huainan.
"Be careful!"
He drank some water to ease his heaving chest.
I went to fill the water glass, and as soon as I put it away, he pulled me into his arms by the wrists.
"Uncle Huainan." I've just provoked him, and I feel a bit bad about it now. When I speak, my tone naturally becomes softer.
"Why did you become like this?"
"It's only been seven years, why are your health so bad?"
He took my arm and tightened it around me.
"You still have many more years to live, but I won't be able to hold on for much longer."
I felt my heart clench in a dull ache at what he had said.
"Don't use a trick."
My voice trembles as I say this.
The gentle kiss of a man suddenly came from the top of his head.
"Are you afraid of my death?"
I didn't say anything, and I suddenly felt like crying.
He continued, "Originally, I wouldn't even be able to live past the age of 25 for this disease of mine."
There was a sour lump in my throat.
"Stop talking."
"If it wasn't for waiting for you, An An, I might not have lasted for seven years."
Mu Huainan hugged me tightly: "I feel like I won't be able to see you again before death so I won't be able to hug you well.
"Mu Huainan!"
I didn't know when, but there were tears in the corner of my eyes. Before he could finish, I pounced on him and covered his cold lips.
In the past, it was him who held me back. But now that he had no more strength left, it was me who "forced" him.
I bit his lip as if in revenge, not even allowing him to speak. He didn't even moan, just let me hold him, bite him, torture him.
He answered me occasionally, but he was enjoying himself.
When I kissed him, tears kept flowing down my face. I sorrowfully thought, this life of mine, I'm really done for.
"Mu Huainan."
After kissing for a long time, I finally let go of him. I still had the taste of his lips and teeth in my mouth, but I wasn't too far away from him. I lowered my voice and said solemnly, "If it's a trick, then you've succeeded."
Success made me wish I was dead again.
He opened his mouth, but it was only a playful smile. The hand he placed on my waist pushed me back into his arms again.
This time, it was my lips that bit him.
Even if I say it again and again that I'm married, that I'm no longer his An An, Mu Huainan would still be able to hug me, kiss me, love me, and want me.
Did he lose to me, or did I lose to him?
Love, it was so strange, as if she cared about everything, but in the end she could forgive everything.
We wound up at the west end of the city.
I was here when I was fifteen.
I supported Mu Huainan out of the car, and the people from An fang and I had been waiting for Mu Huainan's arrival since a long time ago. He stopped his car and walked down. On both sides of the road, there were well-dressed men in black standing there with no expression on their faces. When Mu Huainan drove past, they all bowed and called out in unison: "Hello, Mr. Mou!"
I wasn't surprised at all by this posture.
Ten years ago, I saw him kill a man.
Although I was holding him, he stubbornly pulled his arm out and tried to lead me away, like an old man.
I let him hold me.
After all these years, Mu Huainan's main business was still the timber business, and this time it was a batch of high-quality timber that he had arranged for the boss to deliver to him.
The other party had the same status as Mu Huainan, they had a small group of subordinates behind them, each of them being more respectful than the other.
The only difference was that Mu Huainan looked a lot younger than that white-haired boss.
I was the only woman on the huge pier.
I heard that you can't have a woman at the time of delivery, that's the rule.
Although the man opposite me was dissatisfied when he saw me, when he saw Mu Huainan holding my hand, he could only loosen his tightly knitted eyebrows.
In the Mu City, Mu Huainan was the rule.
