At night, Lan Yanzhi, who was on a business trip at H City, called Mu Sihan out to drink at a bar.
When Mu Sihan left the hotel, he saw Qiao Yanze and Xiaojie who had gone to the convenience store to buy some things.
They did not see him. He stood by the entrance of the convenience store, and heard the cashier ask Xiaojie if Qiao Yanze is his Daddy, because she thought the both of them looked a little alike.
Mu Sihan almost lost control of his anger to pull Xiaojie away from Qiao Yanze’s embrace.
Barely anyone said that Xiaojie looked like him when they went out together, though it was true that Xiaojie looked more like Nan Zhi.
This cashier was probably blind to say that Xiaojie looked like Qiao Yanze!
However, the two’s face shape, nose and mouth indeed looked slightly alike. Nan Zhi too, she and Qiao Yanze looked like a couple that looked like each other when they walked together…
The thought was like a bloodsucking leech that latched onto him and Mu Sihan got more frustrated the more he thought about, but he could only hold it all back strongly.
When Mu Sihan entered the private room Lan Yanzhi reserved in the bar, his expression was so dark that one could scrape off a layer of ice from his face.
After he caught the true murderer behind Grandma’s death, if his Kitten and the brat really ran away with another man, he would…
Even he himself did not dare to imagine that ending.
Lan Yanzhi stared at Mu Sihan, who ordered several bottles of strong whisky the moment he entered. He furrowed his eyebrows, “Fourth Brother, I know that you’re unhappy, but it’s really harmful for your body to drink too much. Besides, you know your stomach isn’t perfectly healthy.”
Mu Sihan leaned back on the sofa after he downed several shots. “Qiao Yanze has been following Nan Zhi like a sticky worm recently. He’s known for his tricks in the womanizing world, every woman that he was interested in has fallen for his tricks.”
Lan Yanzhi could not help but snicker when he heard Mu Sihan’s words. “Four Brother, are you afraid that he will steal your woman and son away?”
Although Mu Sihan looked arrogant and overbearing on the surface, that was just a mask. He was actually unsure about himself when it came to relationships, which was why he often used overbearing tricks to make Nan Zhi submit to him.
In fact, he knew that he had many shortcomings and bad habits, but that was also why he was so worried after Qiao Yanze. This Qiao Yanze was a strong rival with a perfect appearance and knew how to charm a woman.
However, he could not do anything at the same time.
It was the safest to let her stay away from him.
Lan Yanzhi drank a few cups with Mu Sihan, before the two of them turned the topic of the conversation to Xue’er.
“Fourth Brother, do you really not have any feelings for Xue’er?”
Mu Sihan kicked Lan Yanzhi lightly, raising one of his eyebrows, “Have I ever had feelings for Xue’er?”
“She was the one who grew up with you after you came to the Mu family. She’s pretty and gentle, I can’t understand why you don’t like her.”
Mu Sihan drank another cup, as he narrowed his black eyes, pensive. “I used to think that I liked her too. But after Nan Zhi appeared, I only knew what was truly counted as ‘like’.
He wanted to see her everyday, wanted to flirt with her after he saw her, then wanted to sleep with her after he flirted with her, then wanted to tease her after sleeping with her…
The corners of Lan Yanzhi’s lips twitched, “Sure, continue to brag in front of me!”
…
Mu Sihan drank quite a bit of alcohol that night. Even Lan Yanzhi was drunk, and he got his assistant to send Mu Sihan back to his hotel.
Xue’er was in the taxi when she saw Mu Sihan walking out of the bar. She hurriedly got the taxi driver to follow their car.
Xue’er caught up to them when Lan Yanzhi’s assistant was helping Mu Sihan back to his room.
She told the assistant to return first.
When there were only Xue’er and Mu Sihan left in the room, she got a towel to help him wipe his hands and face.
She got the service staff to bring a sober-up tea over as well.
Xue’er sat by the side of the bed with the cup of sober-up tea in her hands. Her heart ached at the sight of the completely wasted man. “Ah Han, get up and have some sober-up tea. If not, your head will hurt a lot tomorrow.”
The man opened his dazed eyes. His vision was blurry because he drank too much. He closed his eyes then opened them again. He curled his lips up into a devilish smile after he saw that the woman in front of him was Nan Zhi, “Kitten, are you here?”
Xue’er’s hand holding onto the sober-up tea trembled slightly when she heard the word ‘kitten’.
His tone was intimate, sexy and flirtatious. It was obvious he was addressing the woman he liked.
Xue’er’s heart clenched uncomfortably. She placed the cup against his lips, “Drink up!”
However, the man flicked his hand and spilled the cup of sober-up tea. He then pulled the woman into his embrace, before he flipped them over, straddling her under him tightly.
…
Nan Zhi got out from the bathroom after showering.
She laid down beside Xiaojie, who had fallen asleep the moment he laid on the bed after playing for the entire day.
Nan Zhi touched her lips when she thought about what happened at the ski route today. The sweetness of the milk candy seemed to still linger on them.
She took out her phone and browsed through the news.
Just as she was overcome with sleepiness, and her eyelids were struggling to stay open, her ringtone started to ring loudly.
Nan Zhi did not see the incoming caller ID, having answered the call immediately in fear of waking Xiaojie up.
“… Ah Han, slow down… Oh… Ah…”
A woman’s panting moans rang from the other end of the call, as well as a man’s low grunts and a faint sucking and kissing sound.
The intimate and scandalous sound chased away any sleepiness Nan Zhi had.
She sat up on the bed immediately and glanced at the caller ID.
It was Mu Sihan.
He called her to let her hear this?
“Ah Han, slow down, I can’t take it anymore…”
“Baby, your stamina is too bad.”
“Ah Han, do you like me or do you like Miss Nan?”
“I only like you, of course.”
Nan Zhi’s heart seemed to have been clenched tightly by an invisible hand as she listened to the conversation by the couple in the call.
It was so painful that she almost stopped breathing.
She knew that he would get together with Xue’er since he chose her, and them sleeping together would eventually happen.
Why was it so painful then?
It was so painful that all of her nerves were trembling.
The call was hung up by the person on the other end, yet the scandalous sounds of the couple continued to ring in her head.
She sat on the bed dazedly. She stared at the darkened phone screen. Her eyes that were completely dark suddenly lit up.
She walked to the balcony bare-feet, looking up at the bright moon above her. Suddenly, her lips curled up into a smile.
…
With Xue’er.
When the man above her was about to kiss her, he suddenly noticed that her breathing was different from his Kitten.
He sobered up immediately.
He apologized when he realized it was her, before he entered the bathroom.
She would never forget the gaze he had when he got up from her.
There was a trace of relief and gladness amongst the indifference.
Was he glad that he sobered up in time and did not touch her?
At that moment, Xue’er’s dignity was stabbed painfully.
As she lost her rationality, she picked up his phone and looked for Nan Zhi’s name.
…
Bright sunlight shone into the room and onto the wide bed through the glass windows.
Nan Zhi got up from the bed. It seemed she had caught a cold from yesterday as her throat was very sore and painful.
She told Qiao Yanze about it, asking him to come over and look after Xiaojie, while she went down to get some medicine.
She bumped into Xue’er when she entered the elevator.
