Mu Li felt something was wrong with her, reluctantly left her lips, frowned and asked, "Are you unhappy?"
"No... I just... want to thank you." Qiao Qiao bit her lip and reached out to gently touch his perfect eyebrows.
Mu Li knew that she had something on her mind, but he didn't expose it and directly announced, "From now on, you can move to my place."
"Ah? Why?" Qiaoqiao was obviously not mentally prepared yet and was a little stunned for a moment.
"Because you are mine, so I can take care of you more conveniently! Qiaoqiao... we have been separated for long enough. I don't want to waste any more time. I want to see you all the time." Mu Li picked up.
Her little hand kissed her gently.
Qiao Qiao was moved, but she still had concerns, "My great-grandfather would not agree. He would not allow me to live with a strange man."
"Don't worry, he will definitely agree!" Mu Li gave her a reassuring look. If Old Man Qiao dared to stop him, he would ask his sister to take the child home and not let him see it!
"..." Although Qiao Qiao didn't know how he could make Grandpa agree, she was very sure that he had the ability.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will never let you leave again." Mu Li held her tightly in his arms and murmured affectionately.
Qiao Qiao doesn't want to live here anymore, because she knows that Duan Qiming will continue to pester her because of his character. He is not a person who gives up easily.
Thinking of him, she still felt a little chilled.
After returning to the apartment and simply packing some of her belongings, she and Mu Li returned to his villa.
Along the way, she felt very uneasy. For a while, she wondered if she would be too hasty to agree to him so easily, making him feel frivolous. On the other hand, she began to worry that she was so ordinary, and she really deserved it.
Is he so arrogant?
"Stop thinking nonsense! I'm the one who should worry!" When the car arrived, Mu Li patted her hand to comfort her.
Qiao Qiao, "..."
Has this guy ever learned to read minds? He actually knows what she is thinking!
Mu Li personally took her suitcase and held her hand with the other hand into the villa. Even the servants who came to help were rejected by him. As soon as the two entered the house, Lao Qiao rushed over and was very happy.
He followed them upstairs together.
Mu Li arranged Qiao Qiao next door to her room. As soon as Qiao Qiao entered, she found that there were a lot of things in the room. Fresh lilies were placed on the table, the dressing table was filled with various skin care products, and the bed
The bedding is also brand new.
"There is a garden behind the house with many varieties planted in it. Just tell Aunt Li what you like and she will help you change a bunch every day." Mu Li held her hand and said happily.
"Isn't this too wasteful?" Qiaoqiao looked at him carefully and asked, always feeling that this kind of life was a bit unreal, as if it didn't belong to her at all.
"No, flowers are meant to decorate life. You should take a rest first. Dinner will be served soon. I will help you pack your things." Mu Li personally helped her put her things in their place.
Qiaoqiao naturally saw the newly added clothes and shoes in the wardrobe, such gorgeous styles, completely different from her previous dressing style.
"Long Muli... I'm... really not dreaming?" Qiao Qiao looked at his back and suddenly felt that all this was too much like the sweet dream she had had.
Mu Li paused and continued to put her things away. Then he turned and walked to her, stretched out his hands to hold her shoulders, and said seriously, "This is not a dream, these are things that belong to you."
...You are my princess, one day and all your life!"
"But... I'm not good enough... I'm really not good enough... Even you standing in front of me feel a little unreal!" Qiao Qiao had never dared to expect that someone could be so kind to her.
"I will prove to you that you deserve everything!" Mu Li really loves Qiao Qiao. That love was planted since childhood, and now it is finally coming to fruition.
After dinner, the two took Lao Qiao for a walk outside, and then returned to the villa to rest.
Mu Li stayed in Qiaoqiao's room until she lay on the bed and watched her sleep with his own eyes, then he reluctantly left.
The moment the door closed, Qiao Qiao opened her eyes and covered her chest with her hands, where she was beating very hard!
Is all this true? Is Long Muli really the man she can entrust to her life?
She always felt uneasy about everything happening now.
***************
When Mu Li returned to the room, he heard Gui Er's call. He frowned and immediately connected the watch he had forgotten in the room.
"Long Muli, something happened... Ananda was taken away!" Gui Er's voice was urgent, and Mu Li's heart was severely tugged.
"what happened?"
"Go to Liwan Bay right away. Ananda is right here." After Gui Er finished speaking, he quickly hung up.
Mu Li did not dare to neglect, he immediately took off the white shirt on his body, quickly took a special black shirt from the cabinet and put it on, and took two small pistols from the bottom of the cabinet, then turned around quickly
left.
"Master..."
"Take good care of Qiaoqiao, I will be back soon." Mu Li drove the car quickly and left the villa, heading towards the place Gui Er said.
Mu Li was driving very fast. He kept contacting Gui Er and others, but he couldn't get in touch at all. For this reason, his brows became more and more tight, and he felt the seriousness of the matter...
His heart seemed to be pinched hard by a big hand, making his breathing difficult...
Ananda, to him, is as important as life...
Don't let anything happen...
Soon, Mu Li arrived at the place Gui Er said. As expected, it was brightly lit. He got out of the car at a distance, decisively pulled out the gun in his hand and ran over at the speed of a cheetah...
His quick reaching out made people sigh. He was completely different from the usual rigorous and indifferent person. At this time, he exuded a bloodthirsty coldness, his black eyes were as sharp as lightning, and his whole body merged with the darkness...
Hidden in the dark, he finally saw the situation over there clearly, but he was shocked. The people standing on the pier were none other than Gui Er, Abao and others...
These people were all his brothers who had been with him through life and death, so he could recognize them all with just one glance!
Seeing everyone relaxed and joking, he quickly put away his gun, strode up to everyone, patted Gui Er's shoulder hard, and asked, "What's going on?!"
"Qing Lang, you came just in time!" Gui Er smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
Qinglang is Mu Li's code name in the organization. Now this code name is very famous internationally, making many people afraid of it!
"What do you mean?" Mu Li asked in confusion. As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding lights immediately went out, and the originally brightly lit dock became pitch black.
Soon, the light chase started and shone over the pier. A girl in white was surrounded by light and slowly descended...
Everyone's eyes are attracted to her...
Even my breathing became lighter unconsciously.
The girl was wearing a simple pure white dress, with her waist-length black hair flying freely. Perhaps the light was too bright, making the girl seem to be in a halo, with a magical light all over her body...
The girl is beautiful, there is no doubt about it. She is extremely beautiful and exquisite. Her body exudes an ethereal temperament, like a dream, like an elf who accidentally fell to the mortal world.
Especially since she didn't notice the person below her, her eyes were always attracted to a bottle in her hand, her eyes showed surprise, and her casual beauty was even more breathtaking.
Muli knew that she was Ananda...
Even if he had never met or even seen a photo, he knew it was her at a glance...
What surprised him even more was...
This girl had appeared in his dreams countless times...
She is Qiao Qiao in his dream...
This unexpected situation made him, who had always been calm and indifferent, a little overwhelmed...
Suddenly, the rope Ananda was holding broke inexplicably. Her body tilted and she fell from it. The wind blew up her dress, making her like a dancing butterfly...
Almost at the same time, a black figure flew over like lightning, and caught her firmly the moment she fell to the ground.
Their bodies were spinning, and the moment their eyes met, time seemed to have stopped...
Ananda looked at Mu Li's face so close to him and was a little stunned for a moment, but he soon realized it and raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth...
Mu Li was extremely shocked. Such a close distance made him even more sure that she was the girl who had been appearing in his dreams...
These eyes, clean and cunning, light and witty, with a hint of sadness, could easily tug at his heartstrings every time they appeared...
He even forgot to put her down and just stared at her. She was so light and thin that she seemed to have no weight when he held her up. This made his heart tingle slightly and he wanted to hold her tighter, as if this was the only way he could hold her.
Only then can I feel that she is real.
"Green Wolf... look, are they beautiful? They are the stars I picked from the sky!" Ananda held up the bottle in his hand, with several fireflies flying in the bottle.
Hearing her voice, Mu Li came back to his senses, carefully put her on the ground, and whispered, "Very beautiful!"
The girl in front of him was very petite, no taller than his shoulders. She lowered her head and stared at the crystal bottle in her hand seriously. Her dark eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, full of surprise, and so pure and beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes away.
"Ananda... I didn't expect that we would meet in this way." Mu Li was very embarrassed. Thinking of those incredible dreams, his mood was too complicated.
"Yeah...I'm surprised too..."
Ananda then raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but now the pier was brightly lit, but there was not even a single figure left!
These guys are getting more and more courageous, and now they dare to tease her!
"It must have been Gui Er and the others." Mu Li had already guessed that today's meeting was probably something even Ananda had not expected.
"I'll settle the score with them later! Today is my birthday... This is my birthday gift." Ananda raised the bottle in his hand towards him.
Mu Li looked at the crystal bottle, as if he didn't expect that Ananda, the money-lover, would like such a gift.
"Sorry, I didn't know it was your birthday, so I didn't prepare anything."
As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly there was a rain of petals in the sky. Pink rose petals fell from the sky, with bursts of pleasant floral fragrance. The two stood on the pier, one black and one white, but they were exceptionally harmonious.
.
"What the hell are these guys doing!" Ananda frowned and glanced into the distance with his sharp eyes.
"They also want to surprise you, they all have good intentions." Mu Li looked at the girl in front of him. She had a special fragrance on her body, which was more pleasant than the fragrance of flowers, which made his heart soften a little.
He had fantasized about her appearance countless times, but he never dared to think that it would coincide with the girl in his dreams. He always recognized that girl as Qiao Qiao...
Now it seems he was wrong...
However, they have obviously never met each other...
Why was she so clear in his dream...
Including those charming dreams...
Mu Li's handsome face turned red unconsciously...
I feel like I'm too obscene...
It seems like it really tainted her...
"What's wrong with you? Why is your face so red?" Ananda looked at him strangely, reached out and touched his forehead, then tried his own, and murmured, "I don't have a fever!"
A group of people hiding in the distance were almost laughing...
Seeing Ananda look so gentle, I really... don't get used to it!
"Oh, it's okay. I was in a hurry just now and it's a little hot!" Mu Li was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a place to get in.
"Gui Er, these guys are so bad! They punished you like this. I will definitely help you come back later!" Ananda nodded very seriously.
Mu Li, "..."
A group of people hiding in the distance suddenly felt that the end was coming, as if the devil was waving to them.
"Do you have a birthday gift you want? I can give it to you!" Mu Li quickly changed the subject, trying to ease his embarrassment.
"How can I ask for a birthday gift?" Ananda said while fiddling with the crystal bottle in her hand. Suddenly she stopped, raised her head and looked at him and said seriously, "Why don't you give me a wish?"
"Huh?" Mu Li looked at her puzzled.
"You make me a wish today, and it will be valid at any time! How about this as a gift to me?" Ananda tilted his head and smiled.
"Okay!" Mu Li agreed without hesitation. Let alone one wish, he would agree even if it was ten or a hundred.
"It's settled, no regrets!" Ananda nodded with satisfaction, "You can go back, I want to walk alone on the beach."
She pointed to the dark beach not far away...
Mu Li's handsome brows immediately wrinkled...
"Don't worry... nothing will happen!" Ananda could see what he was thinking. This was the tacit understanding between them. Even if there was just a pause, they would know what the other person was thinking.
"Let me accompany you!" Mu Li smiled helplessly. Before today, he had never doubted that Ananda was a very strong girl. Although she was younger than herself, her strength was no worse than hers.
However, looking at such a petite girl, he felt a sense of protectiveness for no reason.
"I don't need to accompany you Qiaoqiao?" Ananda looked at him in surprise.
Mu Li shook his head gently, "She fell asleep."
Ananda saw this and said nothing more. She turned around and walked towards the dark beach, while Mu Li walked beside her. From the back, the two of them looked so harmonious...
Ananda understood what the second-class ghosts were thinking. They were creating opportunities for her and Mu Li.
It's a pity that Long Muli already has Qiao Qiao, and no matter how much she likes him, she will never fight for him.
She was very satisfied to be able to stay by his side silently and help him clear away the dangers and obstacles in his life...
Suddenly, Ananda's feet stumbled, she let out a soft cry, and her whole body seemed to fall to the side.
Mu Li put his arms around her in time, brought her back into his arms, and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, my foot slipped on a stone!" Ananda frowned and said, but he didn't expect that he was so negligent.
"Are you hurt? Let's go back and have a look." Mu Li was a little worried. There was no light here and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"Do not worry about it."
"..."
Mu Li no longer listened to her this time, he picked her up directly and strode back in the direction. Ananda wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it and let him carry her back to the dock.
He put her on a container and then squatted down to check her injuries. Fortunately, the injuries were not serious, it was probably just a twist.
"You still need to take some medicine, otherwise it will be swollen tomorrow."
For them, minor injuries are commonplace, so they know some simple treatment methods.
"Qing Lang... I want to ask you something, can you?" Ananda suddenly reached out and touched his head, with a faint fragility in his beautiful black eyes like stars.
Mu Li's heart seemed to be stabbed by some sharp weapon, and it hurt sharply...
Ananda was a strong girl who never showed weakness in front of anyone. Even when she was alone in a hail of bullets, she never frowned.
How could he forget that no matter how strong she is, she is just a girl, a girl who is only eighteen years old.
She needs other people's care and attention.
"No matter what it is, I promise you, let's heal your foot first." After Mu Li said that, he picked her up and strode towards his car far away.
"Thank you..." Ananda seemed to be relieved and said softly.
Mu Li's movements froze, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a helpless arc. He should be the one who should say thank you.
Over the years, if she hadn't been by his side and supported him unconditionally, he doesn't know if he would have gotten to where he is today.
Although the Long family is very powerful, he doesn't want to rely on his family, so having a group of friends like them who can live and die together is too precious to him.
*******************
"Hey, hey, there's something going on..."
"Wouldn't this seem like Qinglang is too frivolous? He has one hidden at home, and now he's attacking Ananda."
"That is to say, why should we do this kind of loss-making business?"
"Idiot, don't you know Qing Lang's character? Is he the kind of irresponsible person? We are doing this just to give Ananda a chance. She has paid so much for Qing Lang... If she keeps hiding like this
If it goes down, Qinglang will really marry his first love... This would be so unfair to Ananda."
How many things Ananda has done for Long Muli, how many risks he has taken, and how much suffering he has endured, no one knows better than Gui Er... So he will never stand idly by and let Ananda continue to be stupid...
Even if she will hate him or hate him in the future!
*****************
Mu Li personally treated Ananda's wounds. When he returned to the villa, it was already dawn. He wanted to see Qiao Qiao, but was afraid of waking her up, so he went directly back to his room and lay down tiredly on the bed.
If he hadn't been wearing this black suit, he would have thought that everything last night was a dream...
Because everything yesterday was too dreamy, Ananda... was also too dreamy.
But I have to admit that they get along very harmoniously, like a pair of old friends who haven't seen each other for a long time.
He closed his eyes gently, his Adam's apple rolled up and down a few times, and he stretched out his hand to pinch his forehead, feeling slightly confused.
When Gui Er and others came back, they thought they would be brutally beaten by Ananda, but unexpectedly there was not even a sound in the villa.
After asking Qiaojing, I found out that Ananda had gone to bed right after he came back.
"Then how is she feeling?" Gui Er asked nervously.
Qiaojing shook her head, "I can't tell. He has no expression. He seems a little unhappy."
"Are you sure she fell asleep when she came back and never left the room again?" Abao was worried, fearing that something would happen to him.
"Sure! Don't worry, the lady is probably not in the mood to tease you now. It's already dawn, so go back to bed quickly." Qiaojing yawned and returned to her room.
The two ghosts looked at each other, turned around and went back to their rooms...
Ten seconds later, screams like ghosts and wolf howls sounded in the villa...
Ananda slowly opened his eyes, his dark eyes full of complexity, Gui Er, do you know that everything you did today may push me into a situation of eternal destruction...
*******************
The next day, when Qiao Qiao woke up, Mu Li was still sitting next to her bed. Today, Lao Qiao was not there. Mu Li had already driven him out of the villa, and he was not allowed to come in again, lest he take advantage of Qiao Qiao again.
"Good morning." Mu Li lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her smooth forehead.
Being able to watch her wake up like this has been his dream for many years.
"Good morning! Where is Qiao Li?" Qiao Qiao asked in surprise.
"Oh, it went for a walk and will come back after a while... You seem to be more concerned about that old wolf, and you have ignored me, your real husband." Mu Li pinched her nose with some dissatisfaction.
"Well... where is that? I'm just asking out of curiosity! You stingy guy." Qiao Qiao reached out to open his hand and glared at him angrily.
"No, no one can be in your eyes except me from now on!" Mu Li directly pulled her up from the bed.
"Long Muli, you are really overbearing!" Qiao Qiao looked at him and complained in a funny way, but she felt sweet in her heart.
"I'm only domineering to you." When Mu Li said this, Ananda's face flashed in his mind for no reason.
His brows suddenly wrinkled, he didn't like himself like this.
"What's wrong? Did you not sleep well yesterday?" Qiao Qiao hugged the quilt and looked at him and asked.
"I went out to meet a friend last night. Are there any dark circles under my eyes?" Mu Li asked, patting his face.
"That's not true! She just looks a little tired." Qiao Qiao felt a little distressed and a little jealous. If she went to bed late, she would definitely have dark circles under her eyes.
"Don't work too hard today, take some time to rest." She really felt sorry for him.
"Tomorrow is the centenary celebration, and I want to take this opportunity to introduce you to my family." Mu Li stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, and kissed her hair gently.
