Up to You - C189
This spring night, quiet enough to give birth to illusions, madness enough, I just want to be in his arms quietly, to sleep together.
He put his arm around my waist, his head on my shoulder, his voice low and deep.
He heard a chuckle in his ear.
I resisted the urge to turn my head back. “You’re still saying that it’s not a tiger? Bloody violence, ready to kill people at any moment.”
He hugged me tightly. “I’m just too jealous. You and him have been friends for seven years and I have never known each other before. Whenever I think about it, I would go crazy with jealousy.”
“Stupid.”
I rolled over and hugged him to his chest. I reached out and pinched his cheek, half teasing and half joking.
He nibbled my finger as I moved, and when I said “ah” to go back, he leaned in and bit me again, not letting me run away.
“Then I’ll try.”
Mu Huainan lifted the blanket with one hand and covered our heads with it. Inside the blanket, it was so warm that even his light breath was being craftily sucked into my nose.
“It’s so hot …” I pushed him out of bed and was taken back, no surprise.
“Take off your clothes if you’re hot.”
He was going to take off my pajamas, and I resisted.
“Stop messing around, hurry up and sleep.”
He couldn’t understand how this fellow could be so energetic after meeting him again after the operation.
He laughed softly and spoke with the shamelessness of a child.
“No, I don’t want to sleep.”
He suddenly began to talk about the past.
“An An, do you remember the first time you stood naked in front of me in order to pay your debt …”
I covered his mouth without thinking. “I don’t remember, I don’t remember at all,” I said.
He continued, “You’re like a sheep that’s always staying here. You’re very careful, shy and timid. I don’t know if you’re scared or cold, but your body is shaking …”
He smiled and continued, “At that time, I liked you, and I thought that liking you was only natural, so I used all sorts of methods to make you leave me, adopt you, buy a company, and teach you how to love you. But when the day came when you were eighteen and you really wanted to give yourself to me, I suddenly hesitated.”
I was so hot that I couldn’t speak, so I could only gasp for breath.
“It’s not like I’ve never had a woman before, so how could I possibly refuse the gift? At that moment, when I saw you, I suddenly hesitated, a hesitation that I’ve never had before.”
I stared up at him and repeated his words: “It’s not like there haven’t been women before.”
… ….
“It seems like you have a lot of women!”
I reached out to pinch his face again, and he bit me so hard I had to stop.
“I’ve only ever made resolute decisions for you. Even if I’ve been making them all my life, I can’t be sure of you.”
He said, “I like you and want you, but I’m afraid I’ll regret following you, but I’m afraid you’ll regret it and I’m afraid you’ll leave me.”
He also said, “I was really tortured by you, a tormenting little demon.”
She bit me hard on the neck for understanding.
“At that time, you were like a peach flower that bloomed for the first time in early spring, beautiful and moving, causing one to feel pity for you and have no choice but to love you.”
The bed was already hot and stuffy, so I couldn’t help but feel like my entire body was on fire when he said this.
“But at that time, you were just like a gangster uncle! Lust stares at me all day long. ”
I’m talking nonsense. He was so angry he came over and bit my ear again.
“Who are you calling lewd?”
I couldn’t resist anymore, so I could only admit that I was the one who said it, “It’s me, it’s me, it’s me, I’m the wretched and rogue who covets you, the unrivaled outstanding man of the universe that all the women in the world like, okay?”
After talking so much in one breath, I could barely breathe. I took a deep breath, and all I could smell was his scent.
The taste went into his mouth and floated into his head, sending waves of emotion into him.
“Actually, seven years ago, when I rushed back to the hospital and saw a field of blood, I almost died. I wanted to let go, I wanted to do this, but who knew that I would be able to survive because of fate. After so many years of your past, I realized that I can’t walk away without worrying, I just can’t let you go, it’s just that I can’t let you go.”
He slowly continued, “That’s why I chose to do whatever I can. Even if you hate me and hate me, I want to get you back. I’m selfish. I can’t leave you, so I won’t compromise.”
“An’an.” He held me, finally willing to pull the covers down and nod.
“My life was not wasted after all.”
He took a deep breath and said, “I love you.”
“Me too.”
In the serene night, they hid their worries that they both knew.
After that day, Mu Huainan completely moved away from He An Fang. He gave Shen Xiuyuan the big and small tasks there, and his main job was still Mu Group to make money for his wife and raise his children. After all, only Mu could give him a complete and transparent childhood.
I still live in this villa with him.
The person in charge of the Lu Group had become a long time ago. He hadn’t paid much attention to it in the past few days, but he had managed it with difficulty. When I returned, the position of the group leader was finally occupied.
None of the things that Mu Huainan had promised me back then went back on their promise.
For the sake of ninety-nine percent of growth, I want Mu Huainan to try his best not to interfere in the matters of He Fang. Shen Xiuyuan had always been by Mu Huainan’s side, so he understood his style of doing things.
I think so, family happy, smooth and stable life.
From then on, the mountains and rivers meet each other, no longer caring about the length and the short of the old.
The only thing that makes me angry is that Mu Huainan is simply a person who dotes on his children to the point that I am unable to properly educate him.
Ninety-nine years old, first grade. On that day, Mu Huainan just happened to be back from work and was able to accompany his son to eat.
From beginning to end, my face fell as I told Mu Huainan.
“Today, I was invited by the 99th form teacher to take care of my parents.”
He helped his son peel a prawn and put it in the bowl. “Huh?”
“Your son fought and injured three of his classmates in the hospital.”
Mu Huainan paused, “One versus three?”
“That’s not the point! The point is, why are you not eager to learn at such a young age?
After I finished reminding, Mu Huainan slowly nodded his head.
“Mm, that’s indeed not right.”
“The teacher asked him to apologize to his injured classmate, but he refused!”
The more I said, the angrier I got. As a mother, I was called by the teacher to the school to teach me a lesson. How long had it been since I was scolded like this in the office? This was too embarrassing.
Mu Huainan looked at his son.
He asked, “Why did you hit me?”
“They’re very noisy. They’ve disturbed me from my reading.”
When I heard this explanation in the teacher’s office during the day, I wanted to take off the kid’s pants and hit his ass.
“I don’t care, Mu Huainan, this is your son. He’s so arrogant and despotic at such a young age, you better properly tell him about himself!”
Mu Huainan remained calm and nodded. He put down the bowl and chopsticks and was about to have a good talk with his son, but before he could say anything, his son looked up in grief and said, “Dad, I was unhappy so I hit someone …”
The 99th was getting more and more outrageous. I was waiting to see how his father would deal with him.
In the end…
Mu Huainan heaved a long sigh. Her heart was soft-hearted as she picked up her chopsticks and gave him food. Without saying a word of lesson, she gave in.
“Mu Huainan! “I’m so angry that I can’t eat. It doesn’t matter if the child is here or not, but if the others argue a little, then he will beat them up. If he grows up and someone tries to steal something he likes, he will just use a knife to beat them up!”
After saying that, I seemed to have realized something. This analogy that I casually made seemed like Mu Huainan had done it before.
His son and his father were really the same kind of people.
“You can’t get too used to him!” I said, “When I grow up, I won’t be able to control it.”
Mu Huainan peeled a prawn and stuffed it into my mouth.
“Right, I can’t control it anymore. I’m raised like you.”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I let go, thinking of the past, and of my childhood, and everything I wanted him to do, and finally overreaching himself to use a black board to scratch my classmates on the head.
At that time, I didn’t know what fear was, because I knew that the man who loved me always protected me.
I ate in silence. I couldn’t control myself anymore, so I let them do as they pleased.
As days went by, I visited both sides of the company’s house. Finally, Mu Huainan changed from his usual behavior and invited a nanny into his house to look after him. In the blink of an eye, he was in the second grade.
He was always naughty, but he was also the smartest person in the class.
Second grade students were able to solve fifth grade math problems with ease, and teachers loved and hated him.
It was also spring, and the annual family dinner was hosted by He Fang.
If I didn’t have to attend this banquet as the Madam Owner, I probably wouldn’t even be willing to come here for a few years.
This place is too eerie and cold, there are too many secrets here, even if I dig for a few more lifetimes I won’t be able to dig them all out. I am not Mu Huainan, to be able to grasp all the secrets of the world in my own hands, I am too useless, I can’t even protect my own secrets properly.
People came and went, and this area had always been bustling with noise and excitement compared to the past.
It’s said that there are off-peak seasons, and people have a high and low past. However, this saying doesn’t seem to be applicable to He Fang. In my memory, He Fang had never encountered anything that could shake him from his downhill path.
He An Fang was too powerful.
In my eyes, it’s an indestructible organization.
Mu Huainan still did not like this atmosphere. After so many years, the only person who was willing to bring him along was me.
He doesn’t care about anything, so I can only use the face of the Owner in the front courtyard to help him get something, and I’ll take Mu Huainan’s place. Occasionally, I’ll toast to the people in charge of the branch guilds who made a lot of money for the Workshop this year, and they’ll be able to take it.
After a few drinks, I also felt a bit of a headache from the noise.
He left the lobby and headed towards the backyard.
Right now, I want to stick to Mu Huainan and let him pinch my shoulders.
Who asked him to not do anything? This caused me to have to help him deal with these worldly matters.
There was a jujube tree in the backyard that had been growing for many years. Several jujube trees had fallen under the tree, and as soon as I stepped into the yard, I saw the jujube that had fallen.
I didn’t bother to wash my own dates and didn’t have any pesticides.
Just as he stood up, he suddenly heard a female voice.
It was low, sinister, and filled with an endless sense of coolness.
“Mu Huainan.”
No one in the entire front yard dared to call him by his name.
I stopped and hid behind the tree, listening.
