Chapter 477: Sweet Secret

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Although Xiao Jiu had saved Song Ting, Song Ting was too quiet. However, he was also too exquisite, making people want to play with him.

In fact, it was her who hugged Song Ting’s thigh and kept pestering him to play with her.

If she insisted on playing house, she would be the one to make Song Ting her partner.

However, when Xiao Jiu grew up, she would tell everyone that Song Ting was the one who dinged ot her. After all, that would make her look smart and proud.

However, that kind of thing could be bragged about in front of outsiders, but absolutely not in front of Song Ting.

It was too embarrassing.

The more Xiao Jiu thought about it, the more resentfully she looked at Mu Anan. “Anan, say something. I feel like I’m suffocating. I feel like I can’t live anymore. I feel like every breath of air is thick and sticky. It’s difficult to breathe. I want to throw this phone out and throw away my memories with Song Ting.”

Mu Anan watched helplessly as Xiao Jiu sat there with her phone raised and began to put on an unusual show.

In the end, Mu Anan nodded her head rationally. “Go ahead. You can also try jumping.”

With that, Mu Anan went inside to change.

When Xiao Jiu saw Mu Anan’s indifference to the show she had put so much effort into, Xiao Jiu pinched her philtrum and blew her nose.

It must be because her acting earlier was not vivid enough and not pitiful enough that Mu Anan ignored her like that.

It didn’t matter.

She would not act then.

Xiao Jiu decisively jumped back down from the window to look for Mu Anan.

She happened to see Mu Anan’s two eye-catching waistlines.

Ignoring the wound on her back, it was really beautiful.

Xiao Jiu could not help but go forward and touch Mu Anan’s vest.

It was hard.

Xiao Jiu then touched herself…

F*ck, they were all lumps of meat.

Xiao Jiu was depressed.

Mu Anan didn’t know what Xiao Jiu was thinking. She just looked at her speechlessly, then grabbed a T-shirt and put it on.

She casually matched it with shorts.

Her long legs were straight and slender.

It was just that there were many bruises on it, which were left behind from the boxing ring. It was because Mu Anan’s skin was especially fair and delicate.

A little bit of injury was especially obvious.

However, those were all minor injuries and would be fine in a few days.

Mu Anan glanced at Xiao Jiu, who was still stroking her belly, and proceed to walk out.

She was about to walk out of the room when Xiao Jiu called out, “Anan, where are you going?”

“Glass room.”

“Glass room?”

Mu Anan didn’t explain much to Xiao Jiu. Instead, she brought her directly into the glass room.

There were all the small pottery that Mu Anan had made herself.

They were all figurines based on her and Zong Zhengyu.

This was the secret place that the Zong Zhengyu had built for Mu Anan. Even Zong Zhengyu himself had never stepped into this place.

Xiao Jiu was the first outsider to enter this place.

After Mu Anan entered, she naturally put away the figurines.

Xiao Jiu was shocked. “Anan, did you make all these?”

“Yes,” Mu Anan replied lightly. Then, she started to operate the machine, planning to make figurines of her and Xiao Jiu.

Too many things had happened recently, so Mu Anan did not enter this place.

This place was Mu Anan’s little haven.

Whenever Mu Anan was in a bad mood, she would stay inside for a while or even for a whole day.

Her entire mood would relax.

During the process of making the pottery, Xiao Jiu had been chattering by the side.

At first, Mu Anan was still not used to it, but she gradually got used to it. She did her own thing and occasionally paid attention to Xiao Jiu.

Time passed quickly.

By the time the two figurines were complete, it was already late.

When Mu Anan packed the things into boxes and brought them to Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu looked surprised. “For me?”

Mu Anan nodded and smiled. “Keep it even if you don’t like it. I’m hungry. I’m going to eat.”

She didn’t like to be too pretentious.

She just felt that after knowing Xiao Jiu for so long, she really liked Xiao Jiu’s personality. It always brought her relaxation and joy.

Every time, she would be happy for half a day.

It was a token of her appreciation.

However, when Mu Anan saw Xiao Jiu looking at the gift helplessly and her eyes starting to turn red again, Mu Anan was worried that the girl would hug her and cry, so she quickly left.

However, as soon as she walked out, she heard Xiao Jiu’s howling behind her. “Anan, wait for me. Boohoo. Why are you so thoughtful, so gentle, and so touching? Boohoo, Anan, give me a hug.”

Mu Anan turned around and saw Xiao Jiu running toward her.

Mu Anan did not say a word and quickly ran forward.

“Anan, why are you running? I can’t catch up. Booho, don’t run.”

Mu Anan picked up her pace expressionlessly.

For the next two days, Mu Anan stayed in the villa, recuperating, playing with Xiao Jiu, and watching the news.

The matter of Jiang Group turning back into the Mu Group had been on the news for the past two days. There was a lot of discussion about it, as well as the future development of the company. Some of the business anchors also analyzed the future development of the Mu Group.

Under such circumstances, the change in management of Huo Group, the second-in-command of the business circle in Jianglan City, was suppressed.

Mu Anan only glanced at the news and did not pay much attention to it, mainly because she didn’t want to.

Something strange had happened in the past two days.

It was about Zong Zhengyu.

In the past two days, Zong Zhengyu was hard to catch.

Initially, Mu Anan thought that he was busy with work, so he didn’t come to see her. However, Mu Anan once noticed that Zong Zhengyu came back in the middle of the night and went to her room to see her, clearly smelling like something sweet.

It was the smell of food, like dessert.

However, Zong Zhengyu never ate desserts. In addition, Zong Zhengyu had been working for the past two days, so why did he smell like desserts?

Because Zong Zhengyu always came back very late, Mu Anan would lie in bed and pretend to be asleep. She couldn’t wake up, or she would be caught.

After all, Zong Zhengyu would call Mu Anan every night at 11 pm to ask her to sleep.

Mu Anan had a feeling that Zong Zhengyu had a little secret.

Mu Anan endured not knowing the story from ten years ago because it probably hurt him.

But what was going on the past few days?

Her doubt lasted until the morning of the third day.

It was the day Mu Anan went to the cemetery to see her mother.

When she woke up early in the morning, she wore a simple white dress and let her hair down.

That was her mother’s favorite outfit.

Mu Anan picked up the parcel that had been placed on the bedside table.

When she walked out of the room, she happened to meet Zong Zhengyu, who was walking out of the room.

He was wearing a black suit with a white shirt inside. He did not wear a tie and had two or three buttons undone.

There was a sense of leisure.

Mu Anan tilted her head and smiled. “I thought you wouldn’t be able to accompany me today.”

Zong Zhengyu walked forward and pinched Mu Anan’s ear. “Are you throwing a tantrum?”

“No, I’m not,” Mu Anan mumbled as she sniffed Zong Zhengyu.

There was a sweet smell.

Like… cream?

It was a little faint, so Mu Anan wasn’t too sure.

“I promised you,” Zong Zhengyu said lightly and brought Mu Anan downstairs.

Mu Anan hugged the parcel.

Before Zong Zhengyu brought Mu Anan to the restaurant, he wanted to take her parcel.

Mu Anan paused.

Zong Zhengyu explained, “Put it in the car. You don’t have to keep holding it.”

Mu Anan thought about it and finally let go.

He felt that she treasured this package too much.

Who would dare to steal in Yuyuan Estate?

Mu Anan had planned to open the parcel with Zong Zhengyu when she saw her mother.

She wanted to know what the secret inside was….
