In 2013, this night, the manor did not seem to be peaceful
Mu Hengyu looked at Mu Hengzhe in the corner of the screen again. He hadn't seen him for a while. Mu Hengzhe had obviously matured a lot and had a hint of calmness in his body.
In the past, Mu Hengyu only thought that this younger brother was a mischief-maker, unstable, and too out-of-touch. But since his accident, this younger brother has supported the family on his own. If it weren't for him, his parents would have collapsed.
Mu Hengyu was very pleased. He used to dislike everything about this younger brother, but now he feels that he is lucky to have such a younger brother.
After that, the people on both sides chatted for a while, and Jiang Li also chatted with the little guy for a while. Although it was a chicken-and-duck conversation, it was Jiang Li's habit to watch his son through video every day.
Finally, with people on both sides reluctant to leave, the video call ended.
"What? I miss the little one."
Seeing Jiang Li's depressed mood, Mu Hengyu hugged her in his arms.
"Kind of."
Jiang Li whispered, Mu Hengyu rubbed her head again and said.
"nervous?"
When Mu Hengyu said this, Jiang Li immediately pushed him away and lay directly on the bed.
"Why am I nervous?"
Seeing Jiang Li say this, Mu Hengyu raised the corner of his mouth slightly with a faint smile on his face. He also lay down on the bed and directly pulled Jiang Li into his arms.
"My parents are coming tomorrow. This is the first time for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to meet. Aren't you nervous?"
"What about the meeting between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? Don't talk nonsense. I'm not nervous. Haven't we been meeting via video during this time?"
Jiang Li won't admit it. Who is she? She is a person who holds a knife to her neck without even blinking. She can be nervous when meeting a parent. It's a joke.
Seeing Jiang Li's stubborn words, Mu Hengyu smiled again, and then sighed.
"You're not nervous, but I am. What should I do?"
When Jiang Li heard this, he was full of confusion. He raised his head that was originally buried in Mu Hengyu's arms, looked at Mu Hengyu eagerly, and asked.
"Why are you nervous? Can you still be nervous when meeting your own parents?"
"This is the first time that my wife and mother meet. How can I, the man in the middle, not be nervous? What if you have problems getting along? What if you don't like each other? How can I, the man in the middle, not be nervous?
It’s very difficult to do.”
After hearing what Mu Hengyu said, Jiang Li frowned slightly, half-lying on Mu Hengyu's body, and said.
"Didn't you say that your parents accepted me?"
"That's what you say, but doesn't it mean we haven't really gotten along with each other yet?"
Mu Hengyu pretended to be serious and said with a worried look on his face.
This time, Jiang Li was really nervous.
Yes, except for Mu Hengzhe, she has indeed never met the other two people in the Mu family. Although the two of them were very friendly towards Jiang Li during the recent video call, what if they met and found out that it was not what they imagined?
She looks like a daughter-in-law, what will she do when the time comes?
"Then what should I do? How about I avoid it for the past two days and say that something suddenly happened to me and I have to leave for a few days?"
Jiang Li's first thought was not to meet each other for a while. Manchester City is so big, there are many places where she can hide.
Seeing Jiang Li speaking seriously, Mu Hengyu suddenly smiled evilly.
Jiang Li immediately understood that this guy was teasing him.
"Asshole, you're kidding me."
As he spoke, Jiang Li swung his fists wildly. Although he retained some force, Jiang Li was still a practicing martial artist after all, so the blows still hurt a little.
Mu Hengyu suddenly showed an aggrieved expression, looked at Jiang Li resentfully, and said.
"Honey, we can't do domestic violence. I'm still a wounded person."
Go ahead, a dignified, seven-foot-tall man with a masculine face is actually playing the role of a weak and charming man here. Jiang Li suddenly felt that it was irritating to his eyes.
"Go away, it's so ugly."
Mu Hengyu became more playful at this time. Seeing Jiang Li's disgusted face, his expression became even more aggrieved. He looked like he had met a big scumbag.
"Honey, how long has it been since you started to dislike me?"
"Mu Hengyu, Mr. Mu, can we stop role-playing? Look at your body shape, your real height, and your face. If you want to pretend, you have to act like a tough guy, a domineering CEO or something like that."
When Mu Hengyu heard this, his eyes flashed, he rolled over, and directly exchanged positions with Jiang Li, then leaned over to look at Jiang Li, and said with a slight smile on his lips.
"Oh, how about this? Is it domineering enough?"
As he spoke, Mu Hengyu gently pinched Jiang Li's chin with one hand and lifted her slightly. This position was just convenient for him to do the next thing.
"What are you doing? It's very late, go to bed quickly."
Does Jiang Li still know what Mu Hengyu wants to do? But when she thinks about Mu Hengyu's body, she doesn't want him to indulge too much.
But it seemed that everything was too late, Mu Hengyu was playing hard.
"Honey, aren't we role-playing? Please cooperate."
As he spoke, Mu Hengyu's attack became more intense, with a hint of urgency.
Jiang Li resisted for a while at first, but finally surrendered to Mu Hengyu.
In the game of fighting between men and women, women are naturally weak. After several battles, Jiang Li was defeated and fell asleep.
This night, the manor didn't seem to be peaceful.
While Jiang Li and Mu Hengyu were resting, some sneaky figures appeared outside the manor. Unfortunately, these people were discovered before they even got close. Seven or eight people actually lived there in one night.
"Captain, this is already the eighth one. It was found in the southeast corner of the manor. This time the opponent was more powerful than the previous ones and was well hidden. Unfortunately, it was still discovered."
At around four o'clock in the morning, in the control room, a person patrolling the perimeter came to report.
The man sitting on the chair asked after listening.
"Where are those people?"
"They are all locked up in the small house in the north, and they are guarded by the brothers."
After listening to the report, the man nodded.
"Okay, continue to strengthen patrols, keep an eye on the brothers, and don't let anyone break in."
"Don't worry, boss. Even those people are not enough for brothers to stretch their muscles."
After hearing this, the man chuckled, took a sip of the coffee on the table in front of him, and then said.
"Manchester City police will be contacted early tomorrow morning. Oh, by the way, how is the woman over there at Gate 1?"
"It's very quiet over there, and the woman slept peacefully."
"Hmph, you clown. If you dare to compete with our Miss Jiang Li for a man, you are overestimating your capabilities. Okay, let's go down."
With that said, the man waved his hand, and the standing man nodded and left.
After a period of time, there was a lot of peace outside the manor. Maybe the people there also found out that the manor was not that easy to break into, so they gave up. As for what happened, they didn't need to worry about it anyway.
That night, Amin actually didn't sleep well. Almost all the people she hired with money were wiped out, and the few remaining ones gave up when they saw something was wrong.
After Amin received the news, she was so angry that she jumped up and down. Unfortunately, she had no other choice.
Manchester City doesn't need Mile City, and she is different from her father. After all, she doesn't dare to make things worse. The only thing she can do now is to stay at the door.
But Amin is not stupid. From yesterday afternoon to now, the door has been closed and no one comes in or out. She also thought that there may be other entrances and exits to this manor, but she is alone and cannot guard every door.
After Amin tossed and turned in the tent all night, the first morning light of the new day ushered in.
The manor, which had been quiet all night, became lively again. Because the two of them had a row last night, Mu Hengyu and Jiang Li both woke up a little late.
It was almost eight o'clock when the two of them left the room. The outdoor temperature today was obviously much hotter than yesterday. Jiang Li did not go out for a run like he did a few days ago. Instead, he and Mu Hengyu went to the gym.
Dr. Gu also has the habit of morning exercise. When Jiang Li and Mu Hengyu arrived at the gym, he had already been exercising there for half an hour.
"Mr. Mu, Miss Jiang Li, good morning!"
"Good morning, Lao Gu."
"Morning, Doctor Gu!"
Jiang Li and Mu Hengyu greeted each other.
"Doctor Gu, can you remove the gauze on my right hand today? I feel that my wrist is almost healed."
Mu Hengyu raised his right hand and said.
The main reason is that his family is coming over today, and Mu Hengyu doesn't want his family to see this and be too worried.
Doctor Gu didn't hesitate too much and nodded.
"It's okay to take it off, but Mr. Mu must not touch his right hand during this period."
"Don't worry, I will pay attention. I'll ask Doctor Gu later."
"You're welcome!"
After that, several people continued to exercise in the gym, and others came in and out during this period.
The gym in the manor is very large, no smaller than a commercial gym, and the facilities are even more complete.
Jiang Li exercised for an hour and walked out of the gym until his clothes were soaked.
But as soon as he went out, he met Uncle Chen. It was obvious that he came specifically to see Jiang Li.
Jiang Li glanced at Mu Hengyu who was still jogging on the treadmill, and then left with Uncle Chen.
"Miss Jiang Li, as you expected, we really caught a few people in the periphery last night."
Jiang Li just raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and then asked.
"How to deal with it?"
"Everything has been handed over to the police."
"Okay, besides this, is there anything else?"
Butler Chen shook his head and said with a smile.
"Seeing that they all failed, the remaining people didn't dare to break in."
Jiang Li listened and smiled faintly. It seemed that once her cousin lost her father's blessing, she would be unable to do anything.
Afterwards, Jiang Li went back to his room to take a shower while humming a song with a smile on his face, and then went to have a late breakfast while waiting for Mu Hengyu to finish exercising together.
