Forced Marriage: The Evil CEO Hubby - C230
The landlord’s smile stiffened. Looking at Du Yanqing and Lu Juyan’s faces, he inexplicably felt that they were extremely compatible with each other, mistaking the two of them as husband and wife. He lightly coughed and pretended to be calm as he explained, “Heh, it’s because I’m too old and muddle-headed. I’m very sorry.”
He smiled at the two of them awkwardly and brought them up to the first floor. He took out another key and opened the door, inviting the two to enter.
Without much explanation, the two of them took a look around. The interior environment and the place they placed them in were not bad. Du Yanqing then asked the landlord about the price and other situation, at the same time, he was secretly comparing the prices with the other rented rooms.
Lu Juyan, who was standing at the side, accompanied Du Yanqing and watched the building in the room. She meticulously considered the possible dangers of life for Du Yanqing, and quickly solved them for her.
The tacit understanding and affection between the two of them gradually grew closer and closer because of each other’s actions. Basically, the only problem was that they both shared the same thought.
“The two of you seem to be such a match made in heaven, this should be a relationship of a man and a woman, right?”
The landlord, who was over a hundred years old, looked at their every move and understood what was going on. He consciously took a few steps back, allowing the two of them to look around the room. After the two of them finished checking, they couldn’t help but mock them.
Lu Juyan nodded his head, he was very satisfied with the landlord’s words, and naturally accepted the praise as well, politely conversing with him.
Lu Juyan looked at the side of Du Yanqing’s face and pinched her pink cheeks, attempting to cut off her train of thoughts.
Du Yanqing, who had unhesitatingly slapped away Lu Juyan’s hand, glared at him in dissatisfaction and noticed the window not far away.
She walked over and pulled the window open, watching the traffic on the street. It didn’t sound very loud on this floor. A gust of wind blew in, giving her a comfortable feeling. She turned around and said to the landlord, “Okay, then let’s go here.”
“Then please come to my room to register and sign a contract.”
The landlord looked at the two with a benevolent smile and brought them downstairs without saying anything else. The food on the table had turned cold, and there was no trace of the fragrance that had emanated from the two of them when they first arrived.
The furnishings inside the house were relatively empty and the tools were very single as well. It was as if only the old landlord lived here, causing her to feel pity for him. He didn’t say much to prevent the landlord’s sore spot from appearing.
With a single contract signed, both parties would have one copy each. The landlord handed the key to the house to Du Yanqing and said a few polite words to him, then watched the two of them leave.
The two had already eaten dinner and headed downstairs to the key shop, where Du Yanqing gave him an extra key, while Lu Juyan brought the trunk of the car to the house.
“I’m going to the mall to buy some necessities. Are you coming with me?”
The two cleaned up the room and sat on the sofa to rest. Du Yanqing turned his head to look at Lu Juyan’s slightly exhausted expression, and his heart ached slightly. He laid his head on Lu Juyan’s shoulder and asked indifferently, but his face was brimming with an expression of anticipation.
“Let’s go.”
Lu Juyan habitually ruffled Du Yanqing’s hair and very naturally agreed. He was a little surprised by Du Yanqing’s approach, but it was mostly happiness, and too many sweet feelings that forced him to sacrifice his life to accompany Jun’er.
After a while, Du Yanqing sat up straight and placed the item he bought onto a piece of white paper. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he stood up and pulled Lu Juyan towards the direction of the big shopping mall.
Inside the large shopping mall, there was a dazzling array of items in front of them. The two of them were in the middle of purchasing items in a very planned manner.
While searching for items, Du Yanqing looked at the figure that was not far away and faintly felt that it was familiar. He intentionally pushed the carriage forward, just in time to see Mu Jinxuan buying things alone. Without saying anything further, he walked up, patted Mu Jinxuan’s shoulders, and spoke while smiling: “Jin Xuan, what a coincidence!”
In this short period of time, Mu Jinxuan hadn’t returned to the company for a long time, which made Du Yanqing a little worried. Now that she met him, he naturally had to ask her about her situation before he was willing to give up.
“Hmm, you two are here to shop together?”
Mu Jinxuan heard the familiar voice and his body stiffened. He pursed his lips and pretended to be calm as he turned around to look at the two of them. He pushed away the loose hair on his forehead and pulled out a smile.
Before Du Yanqing could reply, Lu Juyan’s phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the number on the screen, and pulled Du Yanqing’s arm, and pretended to be indifferent as he spoke: “I’m going out to pick up a call, all of you chat first.”
Du Yanqing, who did not suspect anything, nodded and turned to face Mu Jinxuan’s line of sight. Inexplicably, he noticed that there were some bruises on her eyes, and she seemed to have become much more haggard.
“Have you been well? No matter how I look at it, your complexion doesn’t look too good.
A trace of heartache emerged in Du Yanqing’s clear eyes. Even after grabbing Mu Jinxuan’s hand, she could faintly feel that she had lost a lot of weight. He pursed his lips and asked with concern.
It was unknown whether it was because she remembered Mu Jinxuan’s kindness in saving her life or because the feeling Mu Jinxuan gave her was very close, which caused her to inexplicably want to care about the woman in front of her.
“Is that so? “I didn’t do anything. I just slept a bit late last night.”
Mu Jinxuan panicked and opened her eyes, not daring to meet Du Yanqing’s clear eyes. He touched her fair cheeks with his fingertips and revealed a relieved smile as he pretended to be calm as he replied.
She covered her mouth and let out a light cough. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she changed the topic to Du Yanqing, asking him about the situation of the company.
Du Yanqing, who did not sense Mu Jinxuan’s unusual mood, calmed down and told him in detail what he had wanted to know.
Not far away, Yue Min was searching for his favorite taste of snacks on the shelf, just in time to see Du Yanqing’s face. After looking carefully for a bit or two, he realized that Du Yanqing was happily conversing with a woman who had her back towards him.
She walked forward doubtfully, and when she saw that the lady who had her back facing him was Mu Jinxuan, she felt a sense of astonishment rising from the bottom of her heart.
Yue Min, who was standing by the side, heard the conversation between the two and could not help but feel that it was exceptionally funny. He could not help but open his mouth to ridicule: “It’s just two impoverished pheasants, don’t think that you can become a phoenix and soar high in the sky just by opening a company? If you don’t have that ability, then don’t act like a big shot! “
