Chapter 1100: Chapter 1098: Do I Believe Mu Wan Knows? 1st Update (5)
But he could feel the woman’s warmth.
Like a gentle spring breeze.
The two of them entered the restaurant, and Jian Ran ordered a few homestyle dishes, gesturing for Mu Wan to select a few of her own favorites.
It was Mu Wan’s first time going out with Jian Ran, so she was a bit uneasy… simply choosing some bland-tasting dishes…
“Ranran, why did you ask me out? Is there something you need?”
“I just wanted to flirt with someone else’s wife…”
Jian Ran’s teasing words made Mu Wan’s face flush a little, making her even more uneasy and embarrassed.
Jian Ran gazed at the bashful little woman in front of her. She had just spoken to her grandfather that morning and was even more certain of his reason for choosing Mu Wan—because this girl… likes that rascal Qin Mu.
And she’s liked him for many years.
No wonder… back in the bridal dressing room, when she saw Mu Wan sketching Qin Mu, each stroke was filled with deep affection.
Jian Ran felt a pang of tenderness for the Mu Wan in front of her.
However… knowing that the woman was shy, Jian Ran decided not to bring it up.
Hmm… that grandson Qin really was blessed in a past life.
Jian Ran felt somewhat sorry for Qin Mu…
“Xiaowan, Qin is Yuncheng City’s most eligible bachelor. What is it like living together?”
Mu Wan responded softly, as if she thought of something and added, “He’s very sarcastic… always so self-righteous.”
In a flash, it had already been a week since she last saw the man. She could only see him in the news on TV…
Jian Ran chuckled, amused by her words.
“Actually, Qin is only sarcastic to people he likes.”
Jian Ran complimented Qin Mu appropriately, then subtly expressed Qin Mu’s current state.
Sometimes, one is oblivious when in the midst of it, while outsiders can see clearly.
If Qin Mu didn’t have some feelings for Mu Wan, Jian Ran wouldn’t believe it for the world.
Mu Wan was stunned by Jian Ran’s words… After a moment of thought, she was surprised to realize that it might indeed be true.
Back then, Qin Mu liked Jian Ran and often grasped at her small mistakes to get her attention.
Not only that… he’d also say many unpleasant things, often being sarcastic.
So, was that how Qin Mu felt about her too?
Mu Wan squeezed out a bitter smile, shaking her head involuntarily, “Hmm… I think… he’s even more sarcastic to people he dislikes. Conveniently, since he was forced to marry me by his grandfather, he often speaks harshly to vent his dissatisfaction.”
Damn it, Qin Mu really isn’t a decent guy.
Jian Ran wanted to curse Qin Mu from the bottom of her heart, especially seeing Mu Wan’s expression, she felt really sympathetic.
“Sometimes Qin Mu is just too proud, and over time, he deceives himself… Xiaowan, give each other some time…”
Thinking about it, Jian Ran took the initiative to say, “The chicken soup here is really good; he likes it too. Why don’t you pack some and take it to the office later?”
In a marriage, both sides need to take the initiative.
Mu Wan’s temperament is cold… always staying passive, so Jian Ran thought of ways to have Mu Wan take the initiative.
Upon hearing this, Mu Wan’s expression changed slightly, then her face flushed and she said awkwardly, “This… there’s no need.”
“I just happened to have a momentary lapse and bought an extra serving… It would be a waste to throw it away or feed it to the dogs, Xiaowan, just be kind and give it to him to drink.”
Pausing, Jian Ran looked at Mu Wan’s troubled expression and added, “Although… that grandson Qin isn’t even as good as a dog…”
Mu Wan was completely amused by Jian Ran, thinking for a moment, then nodded.
While eating, it was mostly Jian Ran talking, and after a long time, Mu Wan showed some concern by asking about Tang Bao and also about Jian Ran’s baby.
When discussing the child in her womb, a shadow crossed Jian Ran’s face.
Once the child reaches three months, she needs to have a follow-up check-up… to see if her womb can truly carry this child.
Neither she nor Gu Mochen has spoken about it… but it hangs over them like a heavy stone.
Jian Ran didn’t want Mu Wan to worry, so she glossed over it…
But Mu Wan could sense Jian Ran’s slight despondence and concern.
After lunch, Jian Ran handed the chicken soup container to Mu Wan, teasingly saying.
“Xiaowan… don’t trouble yourself, just think it’d be a waste to feed the dog, reluctantly let him drink it.”
Mu Wan found Jian Ran’s teasing humorous, understanding that she was purposely creating opportunities for her and Qin Mu.
“No worries, you are my son’s future mother-in-law, not treating an in-law well is against heaven’s laws!”
Mu Wan was thoroughly amused, unable to suppress her laughter.
Spending time with Jian Ran… her mood lifted.
There was definitely a reason Qin Mu liked Jian Ran so much…
She also quite liked Jian Ran’s type.
“Then I’ll be going now, take care of yourself.”
“No worries, I’ll let you in on a secret… When I go out, Gu Mochen always sends people to secretly follow me… So I’m never alone; I’m surrounded by a team.”
These people ensure her safety during pregnancy, and now that Han Siming has vanished into thin air, they’re also on guard for any of Han Siming’s potential misdeeds.
Hearing Jian Ran’s words reassured Mu Wan, watching Jian Ran drive away, before heading to the lobby of Dongheng International.
Hmm, just think it’d be a waste to feed the dog, let Qin Mu drink it instead.
The news of her and Qin Mu’s grand wedding had caused quite a stir in Yuncheng City, so upon reaching the reception, she was respectfully addressed as “Mrs. President,” and guided to the elevator.
Qin Mu’s CEO office was on the top floor.
Mu Wan offered a slight smile, and upon reaching the man’s CEO office, she hesitated on how to greet him…
only to find… the office door was ajar.
A woman’s charming voice could be heard from inside.
“Mr. Qin… my sister might be a bit stiff and not know how to please a man, but… I do…”
This voice was Wu Jingjing’s!
