Chapter 990: Chapter 990: Mu Wan Marries Qin San 2nd Update (2)
Mu Wan: “…”
So it was the old man using threats and incentives… truth be told, she had no desire to bind herself to Qin Mu through a marriage of business interests.
Unexpectedly, the man couldn’t care less.
Mu Wan’s lips curled into a faint smile. The check was so fresh that she could almost feel its sharp corners threatening to cut into her palm.
“So… Master Qin, turns out it’s Old Master Qin who’s forcing the marriage, huh…”
Mu Wan took a deep breath. Only heavens knew how much she wanted to marry Qin Mu.
She had dread about it for years—her entire adolescence had been consud by this hope.
Now… her dreams were about to co true, only to be dashed…
Because… it was clear the man was unwilling, and she didn’t want to force him.
Mu Wan clenched the check tightly in her hand, without raising her eyes. Instead, she stuffed the check back into the man’s palm, murmuring, “Since it’s the old man forcing you, don’t worry. I’ll explain everything to him. I won’t marry you…”
With that, Mu Wan shook free from the man’s grip on her wrist. Her face was slightly pale, and her wrist was reddened from Qin Mu’s earlier forceful grasp.
“That’s all I have to say. If… you have no other concerns, please leave. Otherwise, I really will call campus security. When that happens… if people find out Master Qin is causing a scene at school over the holidays, I fear the gossip won’t do your reputation any favors. I… well, even rabbits bite when cornered. I’ve been holding back on you for a while now.”
Qin Mu: “…”
Qin Mu narrowed his dark eyes as he looked at the woman before him. This woman truly managed to surprise him.
Qin Mu’s lips curved into a mocking smile. It was just as well—he had no desire to marry her, absolutely none.
If this woman could really persuade the old man, it wouldn’t be a bad solution.
Qin Mu raised his hand and casually brushed Mu Wan’s hair. His thin lips quirked slightly but fleetingly.
“Alright, Mu Wan… let see just how much you don’t want to marry . I’ll be waiting for your good news. The old man is currently in the cardiology ward at First Hospital.”
“Hmm, my reluctance to marry you… is on par with your reluctance to marry , isn’t it?”
Since her words didn’t reflect her true feelings, Mu Wan’s voice carried a slight tremor and an unnatural edge. She then glanced at the man before her. His dark eyes brimd with loathing and cruel amusent.
Mu Wan’s heart instantly sank halfway into despair.
In Qin Mu’s eyes, she was nothing but that annoying pest who had deliberately collided with Jian Ran last ti, and now… a woman shalessly throwing herself at him.
Her image in his mind must be utterly contemptible.
Mu Wan felt a headache brewing. Qin Mu clearly didn’t want to linger; he quickly turned on his heel and left.
Mu Wan watched the man’s back as he departed without a hint of attachnt, and she felt as though a needle had stabbed deep into her heart, the pain was excruciating.
…
When Mu Wan returned to the studio, the pregnant mother had already been waiting for quite so ti. Mu Wan apologized, saying, “I’m sorry, there was sothing I had to deal with just now… Please undress again and pose properly—I’ll finish quickly.”
“Alright…”
The mothers all knew that Mu Wan was dedicating her winter break to charity work, so they cooperated enthusiastically and couldn’t stop praising her good character.
…
By the ti Mu Wan had completed all the sketches, it was already four in the afternoon.
Truthfully, she had never t Old Master Qin before, and Mu Wan had no idea what she was supposed to say when they t.
Her phone kept ringing incessantly; the caller was Wu Kun. Mu Wan’s eyes flashed with a trace of sarcasm as she swiftly disconnected the call, then decisively turned off her phone altogether.
