"Brother Chen, I... you also know that when I eat at home, it's always the maids who serve me," Jiang Yuxin lowered her head aggrievedly.
But what she didn't know was that her self-proclaimed noble way of eating was seen as utterly useless in Mu Jiuchen's eyes.
"Useless. You need someone to serve you even when you eat. What else can you do? To treat my Mu Jiuchen's woman like a servant, get out!"
The word "useless" burned Jiang Yuxin's heart. She just wanted Jiang Nuan, she, Jiang Yuxin, to be a hundred or a thousand times nobler than her.
"Nuan Nuan, I didn't. The dishes are all over there. It's inconvenient for me to stand up and get them. I absolutely had no intention of treating you like a servant. I'm sorry Nuan Nuan, I didn't expect Brother Chen to think that way." Jiang Yuxin was so angry that she cried, her long eyelashes drooping, dotted with tears.
Her teary, pitiful appearance evoked sympathy.
Jiang Nuan's eyes held a noble and lazy air. She slowly looked at Jiang Yuxin, "It's okay. My husband just dotes on me. Miss Jiang doesn't need to worry. Let's continue eating. The shrimp paste is ready too."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuxin was even more furious. She had deliberately followed the two of them here, intending to create an opportunity for herself and Mu Jiuchen, but in the end, she almost made herself furious to death.
The word "husband" greatly improved Mu Jiuchen's mood.
She couldn't go hungry because of someone.
Mu Jiuchen picked up the slotted spoon and scooped two shrimp pastes for Jiang Nuan. "Wife, eat more. You're a bit bony when I hold you. You must work hard to gain 5 kilograms this winter."
"Okay!" Jiang Nuan smiled with a blush, her eyes sweeping over the man in a good mood. Even a simple action was elegant and powerful.
Jiang Yuxin sneered inwardly. Mu Jiuchen was deliberately disgusting her.
She was already hungry, and now she couldn't eat anymore.
"Brother Chen, Nuan Nuan, I have something to attend to. I'll leave now." She stood up and left quickly without waiting for Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiuchen's response.
Jiang Nuan lazily looked at Mu Jiuchen, "You did it on purpose."
Mu Jiuchen put some food into her bowl and generously admitted, "Yes! How could I let her off when she dared to order you around?"
"Heh heh..." Jiang Nuan smiled, feeling warm inside. She smiled with her eyes slightly curved, looking cute and beautiful.
Mu Jiuchen reached out and playfully pinched her fair cheek. His Nuan Nuan, he hoped she would always smile so happily.
Jiang Yuxin, who had walked far away, looked back and happened to see this intimate and doting scene. She was consumed by jealousy.
Jiang Nuan, you just wait!
A strong hatred flickered in Jiang Yuxin's eyes.
Today's humiliation, I will repay it all in the future.
Speaking of which, tomorrow is the weekend. She wondered if Mu Jiuchen would go back to see the old man. If Mu Jiuchen went back, Mu Xue would call her.
Then there would be an opportunity.
Mu Jiuchen could only be hers. Her mother wasn't from a wealthy family, but her mother had her ways, coaxing her father so that he only listened to her. Over the years, her mother had also taught her some tricks. Men were all the same, putting on a show outside, but in bed, they had to submit to women.
Thinking this, Jiang Yuxin felt much better.
After lunch, Jiang Nuan and Mu Jiuchen went to the hospital to see He Mingrun.
As soon as Jiang Nuan entered, He Mingrun quickly put down his phone and looked at Jiang Nuan, asking, "Nuan Nuan, is Yunxia okay?"
He Mingrun didn't know their plan. The fewer people who knew, the safer Yunxia would be.
"She has been rescued."
He Mingrun breathed a sigh of relief. He had been very worried when he saw the news early this morning, fearing that Li Qingshuo would not be able to accept this fact.
He still didn't dare to call Li Qingshuo.
"Nuan Nuan, where is Yuan Yuan? I want to go see her. I can be discharged from the hospital today. I took your medicine, and it worked very well."
He missed Yuan Yuan dearly. Without her, he couldn't sleep.
Jiang Nuan looked at him and said, "Your matter is not over yet. If Yuan Yuan comes back now, she will be hurt again. Please wait a little longer. Yuan Yuan will be back in a month."
"Give her some time too. Once she accepts a mission, she will complete it without hesitation. I will tell Yuan Yuan that you didn't touch Yang Minjing."
He Mingrun was stunned. He was actually very vague about what happened that night and had been worried in his heart.
Mu Jiuchen's face darkened, "Nuan Nuan, how do you know they didn't do anything?"
His handsome face turned grim, and Han Yifan's thin lips pursed, showing a hint of unconcealed coldness.
Jiang Nuan scratched her head awkwardly, "I stayed up with them all night that night. He Mingrun just fell asleep on top of Yang Minjing."
Mu Jiuchen: "..."
He Mingrun felt contaminated. He had indeed woken up after falling asleep on Yang Minjing.
"I came in very promptly. When He Mingrun was unbuckling his belt, I drugged both of them. If I hadn't intervened, Yuan Yuan and you would have missed each other for life. That was a hallucinogenic scent, and the effect was very strong."
"So I..." He Mingrun found it somewhat difficult to speak. His vigorous and energetic state that morning had vanished.
Jiang Nuan knew what he wanted to say. She blushed and hid in Mu Jiuchen's arms to explain, "I'll give you a pill later, and you'll be fine after taking it."
He Mingrun couldn't care about his embarrassment at this moment; he was extremely excited.
"Thank you! Nuan Nuan, you are truly a great benefactor to Yuan Yuan and me." Now he no longer had to worry about Yang Minjing's schemes.
Yang Minjing had said she was afraid she would get pregnant with his child, which had really startled him. He definitely hadn't touched Yang Minjing, but did he have proof?
Now he could finally rest assured.
Jiang Nuan asked Mu Jiuchen to give the medicine to He Mingrun.
He swallowed it directly.
Shen Hao returned after handling the discharge procedures and happened to see Mu Jiuchen and Jiang Nuan there. He greeted them.
"President, we can go."
"En!" He Mingrun got out of bed and picked up his crutches, making his movements seem easier.
"Xiao Jiu, Nuan Nuan, you two go back. I'm going back to rest too." He Mingrun had wanted to go home for a long time.
Mu Jiuchen: "En!"
Watching He Mingrun leave, Mu Jiuchen then took Jiang Nuan back.
He Mingrun got into the car and glanced back at the hospital, a bitter smile on his face. Yuan Yuan knew he was injured but refused to come back to see him. Yuan Yuan was really angry.
Half an hour later, he returned to his and Yuan Yuan's apartment. He didn't let Shen Hao go up but took the elevator up alone.
As the door appeared before him little by little, his mood also improved bit by bit.
At the corner of the fire escape, Meng Yuan, who was hiding in the shadows, wearing a baseball cap and a black down jacket, leaned against the wall. Her tearful eyes looked at He Mingrun, who was limping, and she felt heartbroken.
She missed him and couldn't help but come back to see him. Seeing him, she couldn't help but want to see him.
She wanted to go over, but the elevator door suddenly opened. She shrank back again. Seeing the person who walked out of the elevator, she frowned slightly.
