"Mu ge, I'll be at the airport tomorrow at 16:00. Remember to pick me up."
Seeing the pop-up message, Yun Shunnian immediately switched interfaces to the dating app, ignoring her teammates' calls.
Mu ge? Yun Shunnian repeated the three words in her heart, gritting her teeth.
"Mu Qi! Who is this person!" Yun Shunnian's tone was unfriendly, and she jabbed Mu Qi's phone screen hard with her thumb. Su Dan Novel Network
Mu Qi, who was calmly eating his porridge, felt his heart skip a beat at Yun Shunnian's sudden outburst. He quickly turned to look at her.
Mu Qi leaned his serious expression towards his phone screen.
"A friend." Mu Qi glanced at it and slowly relaxed.
A friend?
Hearing this answer, Yun Shunnian did not relax her guard. Instead, she became even more tense.
How many ex-girlfriends, ambiguous partners, and scheming 'green tea' women did men collectively refer to as friends?
"When did you two meet? How come I didn't know?
Does she always call you that? Why does she have your contact information? Doesn't she know you're already taken? Why didn't you report having female friends to me?"
Yun Shunnian's expression was anxious, showing how much she cared about this woman who had suddenly appeared.
Without waiting for Mu Qi to answer, Yun Shunnian tapped on the other person's social media feed.
"What is all this!" Yun Shunnian's expression grew even uglier as she looked at photos of a woman provocatively playing in the sea.
"Mu Qi, why aren't you saying anything?" Yun Shunnian suddenly looked up again, questioning Mu Qi.
Mu Qi remained silent, simply staring at Yun Shunnian with a look of bewilderment and confusion.
Nian Nian seemed angry, but it was different from her usual anger.
Before, when she was angry, Nian Nian would stab him with a knife and verbally attack him.
But now, she didn't seem to have any intention of stabbing him or using sarcasm.
Mu Qi's bewilderment deepened.
What puzzled Mu Qi even more was why Yun Shunnian was so angry.
"Mu Qi, who exactly is she!"
Seeing Mu Qi's continued silence, the unquenchable anger in Yun Shunnian's heart grew.
Yun Shunnian casually placed Mu Qi's phone on the table and then grabbed his tie.
Mu Qi came back to his senses and began to answer the questions one by one:
"We met before I became the family head.
She once saved my life, and she asked for my contact information for revenge. I didn't know I had to report female friends. You'll remember from now on."
Mu Qi's tone was unusually soft and cautious.
Yun Shunnian softened upon hearing this, but instantly tightened her grip on Mu Qi's tie.
"You haven't answered one more question!"
Mu Qi thought for a moment, then earnestly replied, "I didn't pay attention to how she addressed me before."
Hearing Mu Qi say this, Yun Shunnian's expression finally eased, but her tone was exceptionally spoiled: "I don't care, but she can't call you Mu ge! No one can!"
"Okay, if she calls me that again, I won't respond." Mu Qi didn't think the request was unreasonable at all. He dotingly moved closer to Yun Shunnian, making it easier for her to pull.
"Then are you going to pick her up tomorrow?" Yun Shunnian narrowed her crescent-shaped eyes, her gaze exceptionally dangerous.
"I'll send Assistant Li."
Mu Qi paused for a moment, then continued to ask for Yun Shunnian's opinion: "Is that okay?"
Yun Shunnian hesitated slightly, but finally nodded.
Seeing that Yun Shunnian was no longer as angry, Mu Qi felt relieved and continued to eat his medicinal cuisine.
After this incident, Yun Shunnian completely lost her appetite for gaming.
However, after sending the woman an "ok," she turned up the volume of Mu Qi's phone notifications to the maximum, placed it beside her, and kept a close eye on it.
Soon, Mu Qi finished his medicinal cuisine. Aunt Ning instructed the servants to bring their breakfast.
Yun Shunnian kept looking at Mu Qi's phone, her mind uneasy.
"Baby, eat something."
Yun Shunnian had no appetite for breakfast and only sipped the milk in her hand.
Mu Qi tested the temperature of the milk, then took the milk from Yun Shunnian's hand, spread tomato sauce on Yun Shunnian's bread, and brought it to her mouth.
Yun Shunnian took a big bite, deliberately biting Mu Qi's finger, clearly showing that she was sulking with him.
But the slow-witted Mu Qi, however, didn't realize what Yun Shunnian meant. He just moved his finger further away when feeding her.
Seeing this, Yun Shunnian glared at Mu Qi fiercely.
Mu Qi was momentarily unsure why Yun Shunnian was angry, but instinctively explained, "Nian Nian, there are germs on my hands."
"Hmph, it's not like I haven't bitten you before." Yun Shunnian heard this, crossed her arms, and proudly tilted her head.
Mu Qi's action of bringing the bread to Yun Shunnian's mouth completely stopped. Then, Mu Qi rested his elbows on the table, instinctively avoiding Yun Shunnian's gaze, and a smile curved his lips.
Mu Qi's reaction made Yun Shunnian a little uncomfortable, but seeing his slightly reddened earlobes made her feel a bit triumphant.
"Does biting me make you so proud?" After a moment, Mu Qi turned back, a smile still on his lips.
Yun Shunnian's slight discomfort had long vanished. Now, she hooked Mu Qi's chin with one hand, her proud crescent eyes carrying a hint of provocation: "Yes, very proud!"
"Oh." Mu Qi avoided Yun Shunnian's hand that was lifting his chin and lowered his gaze.
Yun Shunnian inexplicably felt that Mu Qi was very shy at this moment and couldn't help but want to tease the "beauty" in front of her again.
"Then, darling, will you let me bite you in the future?" Yun Shunnian ignored Mu Qi's avoidance and lifted his chin again.
"Yes." Mu Qi glanced at Yun Shunnian, then nodded.
Yun Shunnian was stunned for a moment, inwardly exclaiming how 'cute' Mu Qi was.
"Can I bite anywhere?" After a moment, Yun Shunnian pushed away Mu Qi's hand holding the bread to feed her and sat directly on his lap.
"Mhm." Mu Qi nodded, avoiding Yun Shunnian's burning gaze, his expression a little confused and lost.
Mu Qi truly didn't understand why Yun Shunnian would ask such a question.
Mu Qi believed he had always been sincere with Yun Shunnian. He couldn't live without her; his life was in her hands.
After all, a few bites were a blessing to him.
