An Ran’s big, grape-like black eyes kept turning, observing the movents at the door.
In the end, not wanting his young wife to be so frightened and anxious, Mu Xingfeng reluctantly let her go and bent down to help her tidy up the bed.
"I’m ho for three days this ti. Should I help you vent your anger about yesterday?" On the way here, Fang Hui had already reported to him first about An Ran’s recent matters.
Mu Xingfeng didn’t have any objections to the Lu Family’s business banquet, but upon hearing about the encounter with An Youcai’s family and the disgrace and criticism from Sun Xuehui and her daughter towards An Ran, he was exceptionally displeased.
Back then, Sun Xuehui used such despicable tactics to send An Ran onto the bed of an old man, directly ruining her life. If he hadn’t appeared in ti, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
And though he had exchanged two million for that agreent, she dared to speak such bold and shaless words. If he hadn’t known his young wife hadn’t suffered, why would he need to seek An Ran’s opinion?
An Ran had not expected Mu Xingfeng to learn about yesterday’s events so quickly. She originally hadn’t planned to tell him, as she was no longer the An Ran she used to be. Even if she encountered Sun Xuehui and her daughter again, she wouldn’t let them manipulate her.
Upon hearing Mu Xingfeng’s question, An Ran shook her head, "No need. Why use a bull to slaughter a chicken? Of course, the big boss would take his turn when I can’t handle it myself."
Mu Xingfeng chuckled softly, "Alright, when the ti cos that my wife calls out, I’ll make sure to obliterate them all, fulfilling my wife’s expectations."
With a few moves, Mu Xingfeng tidied up the bed, took An Ran’s water cup, and drank the water inside in one gulp.
An Ran knew he must have rushed over after the phone call. The weather had been getting hotter day by day, and although the dormitory fans were on, sweat was still trickling down Mu Xingfeng’s forehead.
Taking the empty cup, An Ran turned and poured him another cup of water.
As she turned, the dormitory door was opened from outside, and Shen Qi walked in.
An Ran looked at the shocked face of Shen Qi, and nearly dropped the cup she was holding.
It was exactly what she feared.
Contrasting Shen Qi’s shock and An Ran’s tension, Mu Xingfeng appeared calm, reaching for An Ran’s cup of water and drinking again.
He was indeed extrely thirsty.
"M-Mu...Instructor Mu," Shen Qi finally regained her voice, utterly puzzled as to why the military training instructor would be in their dormitory. Was he inspecting the dorm for internal affairs?
An Ran looked at Shen Qi’s slideshow-like changing expression and awkwardly pointed at the man, "Well, Instructor Mu heard Xiao Xiao was sick and ca to check."
Shen Qi looked at An Ran and then at the empty bed with a look that clearly said, "Do you think I’m blind? Where’s Xiao Xiao?"
Mu Xingfeng directly wrapped his arm around An Ran’s shoulder, nodded towards Shen Qi, "Xiao Xiao was taken to the hospital. I’m here to take my wife ho. Sorry for the disturbance."
After speaking, he left the disorderly Shen Qi behind, holding An Ran as they exited the dormitory.
...
Xiao Xiao felt her head splitting, her whole body dazed, yet it seed she was bouncing around, feeling like she was falling apart.
After what felt like a long ti, everything finally settled down, allowing her to sleep well, but a cicada-like chatter kept buzzing endlessly by her ear.
