Chapter 379 - 196. Put a green hat on him?
Lu Li...When Mu Jin Huan heard this name, his hand holding the pen paused for a moment but quickly returned to normal.
He leaned back, resting on the boss chair, with his deep black eyes as calm as still water, "Have you been inhaling too much PM2.5 lately, causing your brain to regress to infancy? You really need to ask me about this?"
Alright, someone’s asking for trouble again.
When not watched for a moment, he stirs up trouble.
Feeling inexplicably attacked, Liu An felt as if pierced by ten thousand blades, almost spitting a mouthful of blood on the glass.
He’s fine, just his heart hurts a bit, "I, I understand, President Mu."
Respectfully responding verbally, but inside he’s already roaring: Mrs. Mu is smiling very happily now, obviously a sign of cheating, the handsome man and beautiful woman together look so picturesque, Lu Li walking like a living poster is really not an exaggeration, 360-degree flawless, the paparazzi photos must be very captivating.
So President Mu, are you really not going to take your wife back?
"Hold on," before hanging up the phone, Mu Jin Huan’s black eyes narrowed slightly, brewing a sense of subtle danger, "The location."
Getting ready to deal with the paparazzi outside the car, Liu An stopped, showing a knowing smile, see, see! Can’t hold it in anymore!
Hahaha!
Pretending to cough while holding a fist to his mouth to cover his unrestrained expression, he replied, "The ’Time’ restaurant next to Qing University, President Mu you..."
"Beep... beep... beep..." He just mentioned the restaurant’s name, and the other party hung up.
Still holding the phone to his ear, he swallowed back the words on the tip of his tongue.
Well, not awkward at all, not one bit.
In the Mu Family’s president’s office.
Secretary Tang, in her professional attire, stood in front of the desk, reporting respectfully, "President Mu, I found that Miss Ji didn’t take a plane, but a train, changing trains six times, and the final destination is a small town in the south."
They took nearly three days to find Miss Ji’s whereabouts.
Mu Jin Huan leaned against the black soft chair’s backrest, slender fingers slowly tapping the desk, under the orange-yellow twilight, his well-defined features appeared even more inscrutable.
Slowly instructing, "Pull everyone back, erase Wanwan’s travel information, and block Gu Shaozhi’s people, if he finds her, submit your resignation."
If she was simply avoiding Gu Shaozhi, staying by his side would be the safest, she wouldn’t go to a remote town.
There must be something special she needs to do.
Xu Qiubai’s fiancée, who jumped and committed suicide, is from the south.
Ji Wanxia knows her brother well, knowing he’ll find out sooner or later, it’s just a matter of time, since he knew she left before Gu Shaozhi, he’ll find her first, and understand what’s on her mind.
This is very difficult; Gu Shaozhi is the new elite of An City, with influence reaching even the most remote areas of the country.
Secretary Tang’s head was spinning, gritting her teeth to agree, "...Yes."
————
As night fell, Qing City shed its daytime noise, neon lights intertwined, from the restaurant’s perspective, viewing Qing University was an indescribable beauty.
The air flowed with a light-hearted piano tune, blending with the sound of guests chatting.
The two had eaten almost enough, with half the dishes remaining on the table, Nan Wan propped her chin with one hand, playfully poking at a piece of broccoli in her bowl with chopsticks.
Lu Li withdrew his gaze, no longer looking outside, he called Nan Wan by name, "Wanwan."
Nan Wan didn’t look up, responding lazily, "Hmm?"
"After my mom is discharged, I want to travel around the world, might not be back for a while," Lu Li placed the gift boxes from the adjacent rattan chair in front of her, "A full month gift for the baby, a first-year gift, and your birthday gifts for next year, the year after, and the year after that."
Each time he pointed to a gift box, Nan Wan’s gaze froze a little more, staring blankly at five boxes of varying sizes in front of her, a strange emotion silently surged within her.
She couldn’t identify it, just felt empty, it was very odd.
After a long time, the corners of her mouth finally curved into a slight arc, softly saying, "Who gives gifts so far in advance."
Travel around the world...
Back then, Nan Feng also went to travel around the world, but never returned.
Lu Li smiled, the warm yellow light reflecting on his handsome, clear-cut features made him seem even more gentle and approachable than he had appeared on the big screen half a year ago.
"Better early than late," he took a sip of tea, "For so many years, I’ve either been on a film set or on the way to one, haven’t really seen the world properly, now I’m jobless, the most abundant thing I have is time, so I want to see the landscapes different from Qing City and came to say goodbye in advance."
