Nan Muli was stunned for a moment, and his body instantly stiffened.
He turned to look at Lan Xinrou beside him. There was no great repulsion between his eyebrows, but he was very cold. It was the kind of coldness that made people unable to get close to her.
Although Lan Xinrou didn't say anything, this feeling was really bad.
She was neither standing nor sitting, nor was she walking or staying. The embarrassment on her face could not be concealed by her makeup.
"I...I was just joking with you. Why are you so nervous?" Lan Xinrou moved her delicate hands from his shoulders and sat down opposite him with a giggle.
With a faint nod of gratitude, Nan Muli lowered his head and continued the work at hand.
"What are you busy with? Is the company really so busy? Or do you have too many things to deal with?"
"Why do you ask that?" Nan Muli raised his head from the document and asked with narrowed eyes.
Lan Xinrou lowered her eyebrows and smiled, taking a sip of the fragrant red wine in her hand, "There is no reason, because you have never brought the company's work home to do it before. We have lived together for more than three years, and I still know this very well.
.”
"I'm sorry, we are not married." Nan Muli had no choice but to refute her words.
Although it sounded hurtful, she enjoyed it. He didn't cross the line between them, and he didn't feel morally condemned.
The contract written in black and white was very clear. They neither had a successful wedding nor went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the red book. At best, they were just two people using each other in this house, living their own lives independently to cover up the public.
His rationality and rebuttal made the red wine that Lan Xinrou drank taste bitter and lose its fragrant and mellow taste.
But he was right, whether it was her wishful thinking or unwillingness to admit the fact. In front of Nan Muli, it was a fact that they were not married.
Originally, Xia Baoer took the initiative to leave him. She thought this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her to take advantage of it. But she was still wrong and underestimated Nan Muli's stable nature and unpredictable mentality.
It got even worse after Xia Baoer disappeared. He avoided her like a snake and a scorpion. Today is the second time the two met in more than a month, and he only came here because He Canglan was coming here today. Otherwise, he would have gone back to the same place he used to stay with Xia Baoer.
villa.
She was extremely resentful in her heart. As long as he let Xia Baoer move in, she would really find an opportunity to kill Xia Baoer. But she actually left on her own initiative and even disappeared!
This made her feel better. Even if she couldn't get Nan Muli, she would feel better if she couldn't see Xia Baoer and his love.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Seeing the change in her expression on the opposite side, Nan Muli asked steadily.
Lan Xinrou shook her head. She looked gentle and beautiful, and her voice was delicate and soft. She said, "No, you are not wrong. In fact, it is just like you said, we are not married."
"It's good that you know. I just don't want to see you let others catch you or be taken advantage of."
"Use?" Lan Xinrou stood up, her face suddenly turned pale, and asked in a trembling voice: "What are you talking about? How could it be use? Could it be that our relationship is known to others?"
Seeing how flustered she was, Nan Muli stretched out his hands and whispered: "Ok, ok... don't worry, I know this is unacceptable to you, but if you think about it carefully, it's not impossible, right?
"
She was silent for a while, then suddenly looked at him firmly.
"What do you want to say to me?"
Lan Xinrou hesitated to speak, as if there was some secret hidden deep in her heart that was about to burst out of her heart, but her eyes flickered, as if she didn't believe him and dared not say it.
"I know what you are taboo about. You are afraid of Lan Yu, and you are more afraid of He Canglan, right?" Nan Muli tried to talk to her.
Looking at him, Lan Xinrou said nothing.
"Okay, since you don't believe me, I can understand you. You can drink two more drinks so that you can sleep." Nan Muli stood up and was about to walk towards his bedroom.
"Wait a minute -" Lan Xinrou called him from behind.
Nan Muli turned around, looked at her and said nothing, waiting for her to speak truthfully.
"I know this sounds crazy, and I'm sure you know it too."
Shrugging, Nan Mu left his hand, "I know it must be very stressful for people who believe in me. After all, my childhood memories have been basically deleted, and there are many uneasy factors and violent training in my body. People don't believe me, I
I understand now."
This is the fact, he is not hiding anything from Lan Xinrou.
Maybe it was his sincerity that earned Lan Xinrou's trust. She nodded: "I'm sorry, I know it makes me look petty, but my current status is not easy either. Putting aside the complicated relationship between us, you also know that I
I promised He Canglan that it would be kept strictly confidential."
"Well, of course I know that, not just you, anyone who has sacrificed their life for He Canglan basically knows not to tell any secrets, otherwise they will die."
Seeing what Nan Muli said, Lan Xinrou finally felt relieved: "I am one of the people he arranged to monitor you, so you should understand why he always asks us to live together. He already knew our
The relationship is fake. He Canglan has known about our relationship since our visit to the church failed."
"Is that why he is so presumptuous and carefree? Because you have transferred all my first-hand information directly into his hands, and he, an old fox, knows everything about everything, right?"
Lan Xinrou nodded, "This is the task he assigned me. I have to do it. I want to stand in your position. You can understand, right?"
Sooner or later, we have to face this result, and the longer we hold it in, the farther away it becomes.
So this was the reason why she decided to confess to Nan Muli.
"I know, so I won't blame you or anything. If it were me, you would never be able to imagine what I might do." Nan Muli smiled faintly, without getting angry or simply walking away.
"Do you really forgive me and won't blame me?"
Seeing his reaction, Lan Xinrou stood up from her chair excitedly. The admiration and emotion she showed inadvertently could be seen at a glance.
"No, after all, you are also a victim."
"Leave……"
"It's very late, let's go and rest first. We are looking for time to talk about anything tomorrow. It doesn't matter what we were like in the past. The important thing is that we are living in the present."
"Yes, you are right, good night."
"Good night." Nan Muli stood up and left.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Lan Xinrou patted her hands and feet in disbelief.
A clear feeling told her that this was not a dream, but a very real existence. Nan Muli was not angry, nor did he look indifferent to her or scold her loudly in anger.
Even though there was no intimate action, his melting away and so on were already very exciting changes for her.
With the corners of her mouth raised, Lan Xinrou really looked like a girl immersed in happiness, full of psychedelic charm.
But when no footsteps could be heard outside, the gentle and contented smile on Lan Xinrou's lips disappeared instantly. On her face was a triumphant and cunning smile.
Haha, as expected, when it comes to emotional matters, he is like an ordinary person, not at all defensive.
It was best this way. If she had known this earlier, she wouldn't have felt so embarrassed at the beginning, and she wouldn't have been so painful and uneasy even now.
Why didn't He Canglan tell her that Nan Muli's feelings were so fragile? Or... He Canglan didn't know this at all?
Lan Xinrou had a wicked smile on her lips. She neatly opened her bag, took out silky-thin gloves from the bag, and opened the table with eyes with a blue screen.
The documents and secret letters that Nan Muli had forgotten to take away just appeared in front of her, not hidden at all. Such a harvest was simply the best gift.
Turning on the flashlight, she began to write down the names on the list and her personal thoughts.
After everything was done, she restored the files and lights.
Just after doing all this, Lan Xinrou heard footsteps coming from outside the door.
After exhaling a breath, Lan Xinrou had already hidden herself so that she would not be discovered before the footsteps stopped and she opened the door.
She then thought that Nan Muli must have also discovered that he had not brought the documents back and turned around to look for them.
Just as she guessed, Nan Muli really came back to get the documents. After taking them, he turned around and went out neatly.
Nan Muli's lips curled up slightly as he walked out of the door. It was as successful as Lan Xinrou's smile just now.
Since others want him to fall into the tiger's den and carefully plan to make him fall in willingly, why not be a good person and let them kill each other to the death?
He Canglan wants to be a fisherman and waits for the profit, so he will give him a eunuch behind him! Let’s see who is playing the game——
***……
The red sports car bravely cut its way through the crowded traffic.
"Huhuhu"——
Xia Baoer wore a black helmet and cursed twice in his mouth. The red sports car was like a ribbon, and he walked away gracefully amid the complaints and scoldings.
But it's not as comfortable as everyone said.
Xia Baoer still enjoys this refreshing feeling in the wind, which is very enjoyable.
But it didn't take long for her enjoyable moment to be completely shattered by a phone call.
Who else could be on this caller ID besides He Canglan?
But she really doesn't want to talk to this man now, not even a word!
Even if she would rather go back and be scolded and yelled at by him, she still ignored him. But it showed in her comfortable mood that she didn't want to hear his voice.
Turning up the music to the maximum, she treated it as if she couldn't hear or couldn't see.
The person calling here is indeed He Canglan.
After calling several times, Xia Baoer didn't answer the phone, which made He Canglan a little irritable and wanted to smash the phone.
He swallowed his anger and called again.
As long as she doesn't answer this time, she will be honest until she comes back and see how he teaches her a lesson.
Thank God, He Canglan finally hung up the phone and stopped calling.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Xia Baoer turned the car around and went to his favorite dessert shop to eat. Anyway, the result was a lesson, why not enjoy it before going back.
After ordering what she liked, Xia Baoer ate quite deliciously.
But on this day, all the bad luck really fell on her.
Just when she was eating a piece of chocolate sweetheart cake, she was blocked by a dark shadow, and she felt very, very unhappy!
"Hi, beautiful lady, can I sit down?"
Xia Baoer wanted to roll her eyes, but she was used to it.
"You can sit down wherever you like and I'll leave right away."
"Hey! You're so disrespectful." When she left, Lan Yu easily grabbed her hand and pulled her.
Without any defense at his feet, Xia Baoer fell down in a very ugly posture!!!
Oh my god, today is not only a day of bad luck, but also a bad year. The people I meet are really making me unable to calm down and do a good job for a while.
"Hey, be careful, don't lose your soul when you see such a handsome man like me." Lan Yu caught her easily and teased with a smile.
Xia Baoer raised his hand and slapped him unceremoniously.
"Khan, the little cutie you used to be has transformed into a little pepper. I don't want you anymore if you are so fierce and aggressive."
"It's a blessing. If you didn't appear in front of me, I would burn incense and worship Buddha every day." Xia Baoer replied unceremoniously.
It wouldn't be her if she was embarrassed by Lan Yu's little tricks.
She no longer avoids suspicion. Anyway, no matter where Lan Yu goes, whenever she has time, space, or free time, he will track her down, and the speed is very brutal!
We all knew the outcome would be no different, so why did she run away?
"Your glass heart seems to be getting more and more stubborn, which is gratifying."
"If you can't bear it, you'd better keep it at home and say congratulations to yourself slowly in the mirror."
Lan Yu: "..."
Well, the improvement of Xia Baoer's skills now is not at the same stage. I still remember when I took her to attend He Canglan's birthday, her poisonous tongue skills at that time had already made him inferior.
After coughing twice, Lan Yu thought it was best to get down to business, otherwise he would have to hide in the bathroom and not dare to come out if she opened her mouth again.
"You accomplished your mission, right?"
"Didn't I leave you a message? Is it intentional that I didn't receive it?" Xia Baoer was stunned when he heard Lan Yu's words.
"No!"
"Hmm? Is it true or did you do it on purpose?"
"Really, I don't need to make such a joke this time."
Xia Baoer covered his mouth and sneered, "That's right, you can't just joke about this kind of thing. So? If it's not a joke, you came to me to ask for credit?"
Lan Yu had some embarrassment on his face.
What does this woman think of him? Does she think he can do such a thing?
"Who cares about taking credit? Do you really have no idea what I want to do?"
Looking at Lan Yu's excited face, Xia Baoer didn't know what he was thinking, nor did he understand what Lan Yu was planning.
"Please, do you really think I came to you because I wanted to take advantage of this and take credit? Am I so stingy?"
