Chapter 1547: 1546
Qin Mu’s plans, in the end, still fell through.
He hadn’t even finished work when Tang Yang called, “Ah Mu, don’t buy groceries tonight. I’ve already bought them, and Feng Wanfeng says she’s inviting you and An Lin for dinner.”
“You can go by yourself. An Lin and I won’t go to be third wheels.”
In reality, Qin Mu didn’t want anyone disturbing his ti alone with An Lin.
“How can that be? So many days have passed, maybe Yao Dewei will call, and besides, I bought a lot of food; you and An Lin must co tonight.”
“Uncle Qin, you and Aunt must co, okay?”
Tang Yang, that guy, even got Jinchen to vouch for him.
An Lin was tidying up her things, getting ready to leave work, when Qin Mu pushed the door open and walked in.
Rembering what he said that afternoon with its ambiguous tone, An Lin glanced at him and then quickly looked away, “Wait for a mont, I’m almost done.”
Qin Mu didn’t miss the fleeting shyness in An Lin’s eyes, his gaze deepening, “Yang just called to say Feng Wanfeng is cooking personally tonight, and wants us to go to her place for dinner.”
“Sure.”
An Lin’s eyes twinkled and then she smiled in response.
Qin Mu gently curled his lips into a smile, walked over to her desk, and reached out to help her tidy up the pile of docunts, “I originally wanted to refuse him, but he insisted over the phone that I must co and even got Jinchen to persuade .”
“Is Tang Yang trying to chase after my cousin?”
An Lin stopped her actions and looked up at Qin Mu.
There was a fleeting thoughtfulness in Qin Mu’s eyes, and he said in a slightly indifferent tone, “He might truly have that intention, but his family probably wouldn’t accept it.”
Not to ntion that Feng Wanfeng has been married before.
And with a child from a previous marriage, plus her relationship with the Yao Family, the Tang Family, with their long-standing noble lineage, wouldn’t easily agree.
Moreover, the crazy things Feng Wanfeng did for Yao Dewei are widely known in A City.
And back when Tang Yang confessed to Feng Wanfeng and got rejected, it beca a topic of gossip for months; the Tang Family must dislike Feng Wanfeng imnsely.

“Ah Mu, are you asleep?”
The voice on the phone was Luo Haofeng’s.
Qin Mu’s gaze fell on An Lin, and he asked with clear annoyance, “What is it?”
“Ah, I’m just checking if Uncle Qin’s injury is better.”
“Still recovering, these things don’t heal in three to five days. Are you in City B or out on a trip again?”
“I’m in G City, arrived half an hour ago. Just heard from Ah Kai that Uncle Qin transferred back to A City, so I figured I’d call you.”
Qin Mu frowned, “If you have ti, you can visit A City to check in, as I haven’t returned ho myself and am not very clear on things.”
When it cos to his brothers, Qin Mu is not polite.
Perhaps picking up on the displeasure in his tone, Luo Haofeng laughed heartily on the other end, “Ah Mu, you’re quite temperantal—has An Lin not forgiven you yet? If you can’t win her forgiveness soon, I can help you find three or five beauties to cool you down first.”
Beside him, An Lin furrowed her brows instinctively at Luo Haofeng’s words.
Seeing her frown, Qin Mu couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile, “Keep them for yourself and stop bothering An Lin and . You might not have long before you can call yourself an uncle.”
“Holy crap!”
Luo Haofeng was so shocked over the phone that he swore.
“Ah Mu, don’t tell I just interrupted you and An Lin making babies.”
“Precisely, so don’t let receive your calls at night,” Qin Mu said and directly turned off his phone.
An Lin widened her eyes in surprise, “You actually told him?”
“What’s there to hide?”
On the other end, Luo Haofeng blinked at his phone for quite a while before regaining his senses.
Seeing him staring blankly at the phone screen, Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen couldn’t help but chuckle.
Finally, it was Mo Xiuchen who knocked on the glass of the table in front of Luo Haofeng, “Ah Feng, what’s got you dazed?”
Luo Haofeng blinked, looked at Gu Kai and Mo Xiuchen, “Xiuchen, Ah Kai, do you know what that guy Ah Mu just said?”
“What did he say?”
Gu Kai, lost in his own thoughts earlier, hadn’t been listening to Luo Haofeng’s and Qin Mu’s conversation.
Mo Xiuchen smiled but said nothing.
Luo Haofeng, sowhat doubting his own ears, said, “Ah Mu actually said if I don’t disturb him, soon I’ll be able to call him uncle.”
“Hahaha!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Kai didn’t hold back his laughter.
Luo Haofeng continued, “The most annoying thing is, he told not to call him at night anymore.”
“Is this still the Ah Mu I know? Why do I feel like I was talking to a man driven by his desires?”
“Ah Feng, you should reflect on yourself. That call of yours probably interrupted sothing between Ah Mu and An Lin. They almost divorced recently because of misunderstandings.”
Mo Xiuchen patiently explained, “Maybe they just reconciled, and he finally gets to make love tonight, but you interrupted. It’s already good enough that Ah Mu doesn’t cut ties with you.”
