Up to You - C206

That day, Lin Shupei told me another story. It was evening, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard seemed to be the witness to the fall and blooming of her wild rose.

He would never be able to recover.

When I got in the car, the driver asked me where I was going. I couldn’t think of anything for a long time, so I just told him to keep driving.

It was as if her final mission was to finish telling me this story, and then watch me collapse, watch me go crazy, and look at my blood-red eyes when I mentioned Mu Huainan.

However, what she had expected to see did not happen.

I just calmly listened to it all, and then she asked me in surprise.

“Don’t you hate him?”

I nodded.

“Then why are you so indifferent?”

I suddenly asked her, “I hate you. What can I do? There’s nothing I can do.”

“Just like how you hated him for so many years, in the end, you were still unable to kill him, no?”

Lin Shupei was startled. Looking at me, she couldn’t help but give a sad smile.

“We are all the same. Everyone who is with Mu Huainan will have their bone peeled off by him.”

It was just like the owner of a dog. If the owner threw out a bone, the dog would automatically run out to retrieve it.

It was an instinct.

Just like me, when we drove downtown, I gave the driver an address.

No matter how far he went, he knew that he should return home after dark.

Mu Huainan was sitting in the living room waiting for me. He didn’t look at the newspapers nor did he take out his phone, he just sat there in a daze. Hearing the sound coming from behind him, he couldn’t help but stand up and turn around.

There was no greeting, no questioning, no anger. He just helped me sit down on the couch and asked me, as usual, what I wanted to eat.

He knew I would come back on my own.

I wasn’t willing to give up, but I couldn’t resist asking one more question.

“Why are you sure you can get me back?”

He stopped behind me, and I couldn’t see his face. I heard him say, “I’m not sure, but I don’t know what to do. I just want to wait for you.”

I couldn’t help but sneer.

“Mr. Mou whose foresight is like a god will have a time when he doesn’t know what to do?”

He said, “Ann, I’m just an ordinary person.”

Then he opened the refrigerator and went to cook.

He was just an ordinary person.

For an ordinary person to be able to suppress such a monstrous secret in his heart and live with me for so many years without any flaws, how could I accept that?

He cooked beef noodles for me, and the room smelled as good as ever, but I had no appetite. Although I only ate half of the sweet potato in the morning today, I didn’t feel hungry until now.

“Eat obediently. I’ll take you to the hospital to have a look at your legs later.”

When I didn’t move, he took the noodles from the table and fed them to my mouth.

“At least eat a little. You’ll only have the strength to be mad at me when you’re full, won’t you?”

I looked at him.

“I’m not mad at you.”

This was much more serious than being angry.

Mu Huainan couldn’t help but chuckle: “Then what are you doing with me? Causing trouble?”

I withered. “I don’t dare to mess with Mr. Mou.”

“Then why aren’t you eating obediently?”

I tilted my head. “I said I don’t want to eat it.”

He said with a serious face, “If you don’t want to eat, that is, you have to get into trouble with the Mr. Mou.”

… ….

I finally compromised and couldn’t stop eating the whole bowl of noodles in one gulp.

He looked at me with a pained expression and sighed, “She hurt your leg and even made you starve to this extent. I won’t let her go.”

I panicked. “What are you doing?!”

“Don’t worry about it.”

“I still want to control it!”

“This matter has nothing to do with you.”

“It involves my parents and sister, and you still dare to say that it has nothing to do with me?!” Mu Huainan, everyone says you are ruthless, I thought you weren’t, but now it seems that I am really stupid! ”

He raised his eyes to look at me. The dark pool was shimmering. His tone was helpless.

“You think I’m ruthless now too.”

He seemed to be talking to himself, wanting to confirm something over and over again. He kept saying it back and forth in his mouth.

“Then tell me, what exactly did that fire in my house all those years ago do?”

He opened his eyes, “Didn’t Lin Shupei already tell you everything?”

“She only said that it was you who watched as the fire started and coldly watched from the sidelines, doing nothing.”

Mu Huainan could not help but sneer, “She did not directly say that I was the one who set the fires, but she did save some face for me.”

“Uncle Huainan…”

I couldn’t bear it, and I didn’t want to guess. I grabbed his sleeve and begged miserably, “Tell me, is it any of your business?”

At this point, when I saw him, I couldn’t help but want to leave a way out for myself.

I can’t leave him.

He shook his head. “If I say no, you won’t believe me.”

“Then you must have evidence to prove that you had nothing to do with this …”

I’m crazy to say something like that for my own sake.

An’an, I don’t have any evidence to prove that I have nothing to do with this matter, but similarly, Lin Shupei also doesn’t have any evidence to prove that what she said was true. ”

I thought about it, and that seemed to be the case.

“So, why do you believe her? You don’t believe me.”

I didn’t speak.

“One person says I’m ruthless. Two people say I’m ruthless. The entire world says I’m ruthless. But An’an, I’m never willing to give you my ruthlessness.”

With that sentence, my tears fell.

“Then tell me, why is Jing Yu so scared when she sees you? and painted that kind of thing. ”

“Jing Yu has been sick for so many years, her mind is already in a mess.

He took me in his arms and said, “Why is my An’an so stupid?”

He got up, found me a coat, helped me put it on, and carried me out the door.

“Girl, no matter how much trouble you cause, can you treat your body as a joke?”

“When you get old and rain, your legs will hurt. You’ll know what happens when you mess around.”

“I truly am going to be angered to death by you. Your legs are yours. I was so anxious that I got angry. Yet, you were actually able to run around freely.”

“It’s fortunate that Lin Shupei spoke so quickly. If you hadn’t returned, I would have gone to the Jing’an Garden to find you tonight.”

He put me in the car, fastened my seat belt, and sat me in the driver’s seat around the front of the car.

I looked at him sideways.

“How do you know where I am?”

“You can hide that from me?”

I pout.

“You even said that you’re not bad and always have a plan for me.”

As the car drove away, he didn’t speak for a long time.

“Hey …” “What’s wrong?”

I looked at his profile, uncertain.

“Are you angry?”

He still ignored me.

Whenever he gets angry, he ignores me. No matter how much I try to trick him, I can’t coax him. Looking at him get angry, I immediately think about what I said wrong. I completely forget that the one who should be angry right now is me!

“That’s not right!” I blinked. “I was clearly angry. If I don’t find out about the matter with the Lu family, I will never care about you!”

He could not help but laugh out loud.

“Can you hold it in?”

I was really caught by him.

“An’an.”

After a while, he suddenly lowered his voice and called out to me. The atmosphere became serious, “The methods that the Mr. Mou use to control the entire situation, their plans, their thoughts, they have all never been used on you. I can’t bear to part with them.

I tilted my head and looked out the window, not looking at him with a sour feeling in my heart.

“I didn’t stop you from going to the Jing’an Garden because I understood your personality. If you don’t understand the situation, you definitely won’t rest. I know that I can’t stop you, so I can only wait for your return.”

He sighed and helplessly said, “Look, I’m not that good. There are many things about you that I don’t know what to do.”

I couldn’t help but look back at him, and when I thought about the things that Lin Shupei had told me, I felt a little uncomfortable.

“Then you have caused Lin Shupei’s stomach to swell, at least it’s an indisputable fact.”

Mu Huainan turned his head to look at me.

“You think I like her?”

“When I was young, I was also Little Zhang Baizhi!”

“I’ve liked you all my life.”

“Then why did you still get Lin Shupei pregnant?!”

Unable to hide anything, Mu Huai could only sigh.

“She drugged me. At that time, I was young and vigorous, so it was normal that I couldn’t resist.”

“She didn’t tell me that.”

“Then what did she tell you?”

I blinked. “It’s the same terrible thing that happened to you when you were young. For your position, you really didn’t care about anything else.”

When he heard this, he started laughing. “No wonder when you came back, you said that I was bad.”

“It was originally.”

“Are you so sure of what she said?”

I raised my eyebrows and snorted. “This is called the sixth sense between women. I don’t think she lied to me.”

“Fine, fine, fine. You can think of anything you want as long as you don’t run around.”

When we reached the hospital, the car stopped and he picked me up and carried me into the hospital. Checking, filming, and going up and down was all his doing.

I reached out to wipe his sweat, a little distressed.

In the end, the hospital diagnosed that there was no fracture, but rather, some kind of bruising, so it was better to take a good rest.

When I said I didn’t want to go to the hospital, he took me home again, patiently, and brought me a basin of hot water to warm my feet on my knees.

I looked at the top of his head, my heart itching.

“Uncle Huainan.” I asked him, “If I’m really afraid of you, avoiding you, guarding against you, what will happen to you?”

He looked up at me, thinking.

Deliberately teasing me.

“Do you want to hear your husband’s answer, or Mr. Mou’s answer?”

I started.

“I want to listen.”

He smiled and continued to wash my feet. “Your husband is too exhausted from your torture to think straight.”

“What about the Mr. Mou?”

“Mr. Mou, since he’s so powerful, he naturally won’t allow this kind of thing to happen.”

I reached for his hair and pulled my foot out of the water before I could scrape it off. He wasn’t annoyed that I had splashed him, so he just sat on the ground and looked up at me.

“What are you trying to do, girl?”

With both hands holding my chin, I crawled onto the bed and looked at him. “Are you my teacher, or are you Mr. Mou?”

He suddenly jumped on to the bed from below and grabbed me in his arms. A fine kiss fell between my eyebrows and on my face.

“I am who you think I am.”

“You’re annoying, you’re hurting me!”

When I broke free, he panicked and quickly got up to look at my leg. Was it excruciating? Why don’t we go to the hospital and have a look? ”

I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw how scared he looked by my casual behavior.

He was everyone’s Mr. Mou, vicious, brave, and extremely shrewd.

But he is also my Mr. Mou.
