Jiang Nuan blinked her beautiful eyes. What flirtatious words. She never knew that such a man, who kept people at a distance, also had such a playful side.
Jiang Nuan narrowed her eyes, her face reddened, and she asked with a slight frown, "Ninth Master, did you drink tonight?"
Mu Jiu Chen looked at her rosy little face and smiled, "Why do you think so?"
"Because you're flirting with me," Jiang Nuan's tone was a little muffled.
This man was shameless. Could he take responsibility?
Although she wouldn't fall for him because of this, other young girls were different.
"Does Ninth Master speak so frivolously with other women?" Jiang Nuan was furious.
Mu Jiu Chen shook his head slightly, a smile on his face, "No, I only speak to you like this. Nuan Nuan, wait for me to come back and have a meal together."
Jiang Nuan's heart fluttered. Could she interpret this as Mu Jiu Chen liking her?
"No, I won't eat with you. I'm a busy person." Jiang Nuan was about to hang up.
Mu Jiu Chen quickly spoke, "Nuan Nuan, you must dream of me tonight."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Nuan's stunned face, smiled, and cut off the video.
Jiang Nuan: "!!" I'll dream of you, my foot.
You big pervert!
She angrily threw her phone onto the quilt. Hearing the sound of a door opening downstairs, Jiang Nuan got up and went downstairs. Meng Yuan walked in, followed by He Ming Run.
Jiang Nuan wanted to go back, but He Ming Run had already seen her. She had no choice but to brace herself and go down.
Meng Yuan instantly felt awkward. Jiang Nuan was used to sleeping early, and she thought Jiang Nuan had already gone to bed.
"Nuan Nuan, you're not asleep yet?" Meng Yuan asked with a smile. She had originally planned to come back alone.
He Ming Run knew she lived with Jiang Nuan and insisted on escorting her back. He also said that Nuan Nuan had gone to see his grandmother today and wanted to thank Jiang Nuan specifically.
He then went to the supermarket and bought a lot of delicious food.
Jiang Nuan looked at Meng Yuan's uncomfortable expression, which seemed to be from shyness. She smiled and said, "No, I just got back too." A lot of things happened today.
She would tell Meng Yuan about Xia Tong later.
"Young Master He, please sit!" Jiang Nuan looked at He Ming Run.
"Okay!" He Ming Run sat down without any politeness. The villa wasn't large, but it was very cozy.
Jiang Nuan went to the kitchen to make He Ming Run a cup of herbal tea. Drinking tea at night could affect sleep.
Luoguo, bamboo flowers, and chrysanthemum were three ingredients that helped with sleep. This formula did not need to be boiled, just steeped with hot water.
"Young Master He, please drink the tea!" Jiang Nuan brewed the tea in a deep glass cup, and the color was very beautiful.
He Ming Run smiled and nodded, "Very beautiful!"
Meng Yuan felt a little envious. Why wasn't there one for her?
"Nuan Nuan, I want one too."
Jiang Nuan looked at her and pointed to the health pot not far away, saying, "There's some in the health pot. It clears the liver and brightens the eyes, which is suitable for you."
"Oh!" Meng Yuan got up and poured herself some water.
He Ming Run asked curiously, "Miss Jiang, what are the benefits of this raw tea?"
Jiang Nuan sat opposite him and said, "It helps with sleep. Drinking a cup before bed can prevent insomnia."
The smile on He Ming Run's handsome face deepened. It was very suitable for him. "Thank you! It's very beautiful. Can I take a picture?"
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly, "Yes."
Luoguo, with a slightly cool nature, sweet and bitter taste, enters the heart and lung meridians, and has the effect of clearing the heart and calming the mind. It is also suitable for people who drink alcohol regularly.
He Ming Run took a picture and immediately sent it to Mu Jiu Chen.
[Envy me, Miss Jiang made me a health tea to help me sleep.]
Mu Jiu Chen was just about to go to bed when his phone screen lit up. He picked it up and saw it was from He Ming Run, with a picture of very beautiful tea, and Jiang Nuan, with a gentle and elegant expression, sitting opposite.
Mu Jiu Chen jumped up instantly.
He quickly sent a message to ask, [Why did you go to Nuan Nuan's house? What are you doing so late? Don't you know that men and women should not touch each other?]
He Ming Run glanced at it, pursed his lips into a smile, and completely ignored Mu Jiu Chen.
He picked up the health tea and took a sip. The taste was very good. After drinking for a while, he felt warm all over and very comfortable.
"It's delicious," He Ming Run praised generously.
"Thank you!" Jiang Nuan gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
Meng Yuan walked over and sat beside He Ming Run, looking at Jiang Nuan, "Nuan Nuan, has Brother Jiang not come back yet?"
"No, I'm waiting for you two."
Meng Yuan was a little worried, "Oh! He said he would be back at ten."
As they were talking, there was a sound from the door. Meng Yuan turned to look, and it was Jiang Xing Yu, carrying late-night snacks.
Jiang Nuan and Meng Yuan: "..." It was also dangerous to be out late at night, and delicious food could find its way to the door.
"Yuan Yuan, Nuan Nuan, I'm back." Jiang Xing Yu changed his shoes at the entrance.
"Oh! Brother Jiang, didn't you say you'd be back at ten?" Meng Yuan turned and smiled at him.
He Ming Run's gaze swept over her with a hint of light. Jiang Xing Yu actually lived with them.
"My friend had something, and it delayed me."
Jiang Xing Yu walked in and saw He Ming Run.
"Young Master He is also here." He greeted with a smile.
He Ming Run nodded with a slight smile, his noble posture dazzling.
Jiang Xing Yu looked at Jiang Nuan and Meng Yuan, "Let's have some skewers. The skewers from the side street, Nuan Nuan, do you remember? They're especially fragrant!"
Jiang Nuan smiled and nodded, "Brother, I remember, I'm already drooling."
"Wow! Then we must have some beer." Meng Yuan nimbly stood up and got a can of beer from the refrigerator.
He Ming Run: "..." Should he stay or leave? His phone kept ringing.
It was a call from Mu Jiu Chen.
He Ming Run simply hung up the phone and then secretly sent another picture to Mu Jiu Chen.
[We are about to eat skewers.]
Mu Jiu Chen saw the skewers in the photo. What kind of skewers were these? One skewer at a time wasn't enough to eat! But they looked very appetizing.
He Ming Run: [Don't disturb my late-night snack.]
Mu Jiu Chen: "..." Your great-grandfather, He Ming Run is showing off.
He instantly lost his sleepiness. Why was he abroad?
He Ming Run must be doing it on purpose.
Meanwhile, on Jiang Nuan's side, the late-night snack had begun. In the elite school, everyone who had trained all day was preparing to go back and rest. Suddenly, the drum on the stage was urgently beaten.
The crowd, who were on their way back to the dormitories, immediately stopped and excitedly turned towards the stage.
"They're still having matches so late. Who could it be?"
"I know, but that competition is even more exciting than training."
The students of the elite school came from all over the country, and each had their own unique specialties.
The children here were no older than eighteen, and the youngest were three.
After the age of eighteen, they would enter society. Some particularly outstanding individuals would be scouted by other companies while still in school.
After graduating from the elite academy, a salary of millions awaited them.
Out of the hundreds of millions of people across the country, only a thousand studied here.
"I heard that a new child from the first year this year is challenging the mysterious little overlord of the third year, Xiao Ze Ye."
"Oh! This will be exciting. Xiao Ze Ye is both talented and accomplished. Although he is a true little overlord, he is also a true top student."
"Isn't that so? Hurry up, hurry up. I heard it's about to start."
