Chapter 584 The Sobering Fall of the Cannon Fodder Junior Schoolgirl (24)
When Mu Zhou woke up and saw Shen Linshu, he was still a little disoriented.
After my mind cleared up a bit, I remembered what happened last night.
She stared at Shen Linshu's face, which was so close to hers, and noticed for the first time how long his eyelashes were.
His skin looked smooth, his hair was a little messy, and his pajamas were nowhere to be seen, revealing his strong arms.
Mu Zhou's gaze slid down the path.
From the Adam's apple to the collarbone, and then to the clearly defined muscle lines.
Mu Zhou pondered to himself, feeling that he must have practiced on purpose, otherwise how could the shape be so perfect?
As she was sighing, she looked up and met Shen Linshu's eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Would you like to take a closer look?"
His voice was still a little muffled, with that uniquely morning nonchalance and sensuality.
After saying that, he was about to lift the blanket.
Mu Zhou was shocked and blushed as she immediately tried to get up.
But Shen Linshu was faster, grabbing her waist from behind and pulling her back onto the bed:
"I won't bother you anymore, go back to sleep."
She moved and tidied up last night, and it was already late at night when she finally lay down in bed.
It's not seven o'clock yet, too early.
Mu Zhou wasn't entirely clear-headed to begin with, but being enveloped by Shen Linshu's forceful presence gave her a strange sense of security.
She quickly fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, it was already bright daylight, and Shen Linshu was no longer in bed.
Mu Zhou stretched and washed up in the bathroom in the bedroom. Without changing his clothes, he went to the living room.
Then, I saw two figures in the living room.
She stopped yawning halfway through.
At that moment, the two men on the living room sofa, their atmosphere tense, simultaneously turned to look at her.
Seeing Shen Linshu in the living room wasn't particularly unexpected for Mu Zhou.
But what about Xu Ran?
How come he's here?
Shen Linshu remained calm, and upon seeing Mu Zhou, he stood up and walked towards her.
"I've had someone bring you brunch, you can eat first."
Mu Zhou was bewildered as he led her to the restaurant and they sat down.
Shen Linshu quickly filled the dining table.
Never mind, let's eat first.
Mu Zhou picked up an egg dumpling.
Xu Ran's face, already extremely pale, darkened completely when she saw the two of them eating as if no one else was around.
He didn't sleep all night, thinking about the future of this marriage, and came to the conclusion that he couldn't lose Mu Zhou.
So he rushed over early in the morning, wanting to have a good talk with Mu Zhou.
In the past, he failed to recognize his own heart and always tried to escape from Mu Zhou's love.
He no longer wants to deceive himself.
He admitted that he had indeed fallen in love with Mu Zhou.
He rushed over, only to find that it was Shen Linshu who opened the door.
The man, dressed in pajamas, was completely at ease, treating him as if he were the host.
Xu Ran felt like a joke.
What were Mu Zhou and Shen Linshu doing while he was suffering last night?
In this house that once belonged to him, he must have done all the most intimate things between a man and a woman.
Upon realizing this possibility, Xu Ran could no longer remain calm. He abruptly stood up and walked towards Mu Zhou.
But as soon as he stood still, he heard Shen Linshu say unhurriedly:
"She hasn't had a proper meal since last night's banquet, so don't disturb her."
Xu Ran's tense emotions instantly dissipated.
Looking at Mu Zhou's puffed-out cheeks, he could only purse his lips and sit down at the table.
After Mu Zhou had eaten and drunk his fill, the three of them returned to the living room.
Shen Linshu didn't bring any proper clothes, so he used this as a convenient excuse when Mu Zhou tried to kick him out.
"I need to wait for my assistant to bring me the clothes before I can leave."
He leaned back on the sofa like a rogue, and Mu Zhou couldn't do anything about it.
With Shen Linshu here, Xu Ran had no way to say anything to Mu Zhou.
He only said:
“No matter what, I don’t think you should give up your job. I’ve already asked for leave for you these past two days, so you should get some rest.”
He then left.
After he left, Mu Zhou also kicked Shen Linshu out, and only then was there a moment of peace and quiet.
Since he didn't have to work these two days, Mu Zhou quickly tidied himself up and went to an exhibition.
This is an exhibition about high-end electrical appliances, where major brands have showcased their latest and most cutting-edge products.
Mu Zhou was certainly not there to browse the exhibition.
She came to apply for the job.
A brand that doesn't have a local branch is hiring.
Naturally, after joining the company, you will need to go to other places with them.
After the interview, Mu Zhou walked outside with his resume and a stack of study materials in his hand.
As I passed by a certain brand, I happened to see the brand's general manager coming to inspect the business, surrounded by a group of people.
She glanced at it curiously.
Upon seeing that familiar figure, she was terrified, quickly averted her gaze, and turned to leave in another direction.
Jiang Chenbai, who was surrounded by the crowd, also noticed Mu Zhou.
As everyone crowded around him, only Mu Zhou turned his back and walked away from him.
He hurriedly whispered a few words to the person next to him, and then walked towards Mu Zhou under the protection of bodyguards.
Just as they reached the door, Jiang Chenbai finally caught up with Mu Zhou.
He grabbed Mu Zhou's arm and, ignoring her resistance, dragged her into the car.
With the car doors locked, Mu Zhou was left alone with him in the back seat. She dared not struggle any longer and provoke him further.
She just watched him warily, keeping as close to the car door as possible.
Jiang Chenbai gazed at her with rapt attention, completely captivated.
During this period, he faced considerable pressure because he proposed to Lin Yumo to cancel the engagement.
But he was unwilling to give up.
It's rare to meet someone who is so similar to Tongtong when she was young, and whose personality suits him perfectly. He would never let go of her.
Back then, he was powerless and constrained by his family, so he could only watch helplessly as Tongtong left.
He would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen again.
He was busy dealing with various parties and never had time to see Mu Zhou.
I never expected to see you like this today.
Sure enough, he and Mu Zhou were destined to be together.
Seeing Mu Zhou's obvious resistance, he suppressed his inner turmoil:
"What happened last time was my fault. I was too impulsive. You suddenly blocked me, and I just couldn't control myself. But you have to believe me, I didn't mean to hurt you."
Seeing that Mu Zhou's expression softened slightly, he continued to patiently persuade him:
"Whether Shen Linshu shows up that day or not, I won't do anything to you. I just love you too much."
His tone was gentle, and his expression was affectionate.
He was still happy to say such nice things.
We can't let Mu Zhou really avoid him like the plague.
He wants the person, and he wants the heart too.
He tried to take Mu Zhou's hand.
Mu Zhou was initially hesitant and confused, but the moment his fingertips touched her, he reacted instantly:
"You don't touch me!"
Jiang Chenbai frowned, feeling somewhat displeased.
He then forcibly pulled her into his arms:
"Baby, don't be afraid of me."
Mu Zhou struggled fiercely, her voice trembling, her eyes filled with fear:
"Please, let me go. I'm just an ordinary person. I can't bear the retaliation from your class. I just want to live a peaceful life. Please, let me go..."
Mu Zhou's face was deathly pale, her eyes were misty, and she looked pitiful and helpless, which was heartbreaking.
Jiang Chenbai frowned, something flashing through his mind in an instant.
