the seventh bride

Chapter 144 No right to refuse

The small villa is equipped with a large European-style carved door, which is usually locked by the security guards on duty, except today because of the rain.

Seeing that Bai Muqing was about to open the door and go out, the security guard on duty immediately rushed up and grabbed her arm and said angrily, "Miss Bai, you can't go out! Come in quickly—!"

In the past, Bai Muqing would not make things difficult for him, because she knew Nan Gongchen's personality and also understood his difficulties as a migrant worker.

But today, she really couldn't take care of his difficulties. She struggled and screamed: "Let me go! I must go out today! Let go!"

"Miss Bai, don't blame me for being rude if you do this again!" The security guard on duty was forced to throw down his umbrella and grab her with both hands.

The rain fell on the two of them, and each other's clothes and hair were soaked.

Bai Muqing was not intimidated by his warning at all, instead she hugged the thick iron gate tightly and threatened him: "If you don't let go of me, I'll die for you, I'll hit you right here look.!"

Bai Muqing didn't forget to slam her head against the door after threatening her. As expected, Baoan on duty was frightened by her, and immediately stretched out his hand to block the door.

Bai Muqing bumped her head against the back of his hand, and the security guard realized that she was actually coming for real, so she froze in place in fright, Bai Muqing took the opportunity to squeeze out of him, and quickly disappeared into the rain.

*****
Assistant Yan came in from the door of the conference room, leaned into Nangong Chen's ear and said, "Young Master Chen, the security guard at the small villa called and said that Mrs. Young has escaped."

Nangong Chen closed his deep pupils: "What did you say?"

"Over there, it is said that the young lady saw a news during the dinner that a mother and son committed suicide by jumping into the river in the Hongli section of the Binjiang River, and then ran out like crazy." Assistant Yan said: "I already called Lao Wang I searched all the way to the small villa, and even asked Xiaolin to go to the riverside to have a look, it’s raining so heavily, you see, do you want to go there?”

Nangong Chen pondered for a while, and said, "Help me host the meeting."

"Okay." Assistant Yan replied.

The first two times when she went out, Bai Muqing deliberately memorized the route, the main road was just around a seawall from the small villa, so she hailed a taxi and got on it.

The driver looked at her, who was soaked all over, and finally started the car reluctantly.

When Bai Muqing rushed to the river, although it was already dark, she could still see at a glance that the bodies of the mother and child had been salvaged and placed on the shore, and had been covered with white cloth.

She was so frightened that her legs went limp, and she sat on the side of the road and howled loudly. The crying scared away even the taxi driver who was chasing after him to ask for the fare.

Because it was raining heavily, there were not many onlookers. Seeing her crying so sadly, the policeman on duty came over and asked, "Miss, are you a relative of the deceased?"

"I don't know, I don't know..." Bai Muqing cried while shaking her head.

"Is your family missing?"

Bai Muqing nodded again.

"Then would you like to go over and identify the corpse?" The policeman helped her up from the ground.

Bai Muqing looked at the two corpses covered in white cloth, nodded and shook her head, she didn't have the courage to go up to identify them, she was afraid that what she saw was her mother and Xiaoyi.

"Miss, you'd better take a look." The policeman said helplessly.

"I can not."

"Then what to do? Do you have any other family members? Call them over?"

"No more, I don't have any family members, I'm the only one left..." She leaned limply on the policeman, crying until her heart broke.

"Miss, if you don't look at it, we will send the body to the funeral home."

"No! I'll see, I'll see." Bai Muqing tightly grasped the policeman's clothes, and walked inside the cordon while being half supported and half dragged by him.

Just when the two of them crossed the cordon together, someone grabbed Bai Muqing's other arm suddenly, and her body was pulled out of the cordon and crashed into someone's arms in an instant.

She was blindfolded for a while, raised her little face that was submerged in rain and tears, and vaguely saw Nangong Chen's handsome face appearing in front of her eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Nangong Chen held her waist with one hand and held a big umbrella in the other, with a bad expression on his face.

"My mother and Xiaoyi..." Bai Muqing was too sad to speak.

Seeing Nangong Chen holding Bai Muqing, the police sized him up and asked, "Sir, are you a friend of this lady?"

"I am her husband." Nangong Chen said.

"That's great. This young lady doesn't dare to go forward to identify the corpse. You can go up and identify the corpse on her behalf."

Nangong Chen glanced at the body inside the cordon, and said with a stern expression: "No need, it's not our family."

"However, this young lady just said that her mother and younger brother are missing." Mr. Police looked back and forth between the two of them in puzzlement.

Nangong Chen's tone remained unchanged: "She made a mistake, her mother and younger brother are not missing."

"Huh?" The policeman was surprised.

When Bai Muqing heard Nangong Chen's words, she also froze for a moment, staring at him with tears in her eyes.

After a while, she choked up and asked, "Is it true?"

"It's true." Nangong Chen pulled her into his arms a little bit to prevent the heavy rain from falling on her.

Bai Muqing shook her head whiningly: "I don't believe it, you lied to me."

"Since you don't believe me, then go in and see for yourself." Nan Gongchen said as if to drag her in, but Bai Muqing hugged his body and refused to approach him.Seeing her wanting to see but being afraid to see, Nan Gongchen took a light breath helplessly, and said, "Bai Muqing, I'm not as shameless as you, and I'm not as shameless as you are. If I say it's not them, then I'm not."

After hearing his words, Bai Muqing finally stopped crying, leaned into his arms and wept, and slowly calmed down.

She was so frightened that her whole body went limp, and she cried so sadly that Bai Muqing was about to collapse, she didn't even feel that she was brought back to the apartment by Nangong Chen.

The Xiangdi apartment is on the edge of the riverside, both of them were drenched, Nan Gongchen was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he found a place nearby to change and wash.

After returning to the apartment, Nangong Chen directly pulled her into the bathroom, poured hot water into the bathtub, and began to take off her wet clothes.

Realizing what he was going to do, Bai Muqing quickly grabbed her clothes and said, "I'll do it myself."

Probably because of her weak body, she couldn't pull the zipper on her back with her hands behind her back. Nangong Chen saw that she couldn't pull it off, so he helped her pull the zipper down, and also helped her unbutton her underwear.

The clothes fell off her body, Bai Muqing shyly hid in the bathtub.She hugged her body, buried her head and waited for him to leave the bathroom voluntarily. After waiting for a long while without any movement, she looked up and found that Nan Gongchen had also taken off only a pair of underwear.

Before she could cry out in surprise, Nan Gongchen stepped in and sat down opposite her.

Seeing her surprised face with her mouth half open, Nan Gongchen didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, and said calmly, "There's only a bathtub here. I'm more afraid of catching a cold than you. What's so surprising?"

"You said earlier, I can give it to you." Bai Muqing hugged her body tightly, and murmured shyly.

"I've been waiting for you here for so long and I haven't seen you." Nangong Chen leaned forward and drew closer to her: "Does this mean that you don't care about me at all?"

Bai Muqing fell silent, she was in a daze just now and didn't realize these problems at all.

Nangong Chen looked at her shadowy body underwater, and his body tensed slightly. In order not to make his body swell, he tore a bath ball from the shelf and threw it on her: "Come here and help me wipe my back."

After speaking, he turned his back to her.

This is a large bathtub, more than enough for two people to soak in it.

Although Bai Muqing really wanted to put on her clothes and flee as soon as possible, but he had already asked her to help wipe his back, and he was ready, so it was impossible for her to refuse.

She had no choice but to grope and move over to wipe his body.

Bai Muqing didn't concentrate on wiping, and forgot to be shy, and kept replaying the scene by the river just now in her mind, the two pairs of mother and child covered in white cloth.

She took a deep breath, stared at Nangong Chen whose back was turned to her, and said, "Eldest young master, you won't hurt Xiaoyi, right? Xiaoyi likes you so much, admires you so much, and even brings you breakfast on time every morning."

Nangong Chen quietly opened his eyes, turned his head, and Bai Muqing hurriedly sank her body into the water.

"Play the sympathy card instead?"

Bai Muqing didn't say anything, Nan Gongchen suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, pinching her waist with one hand and lifting her chin with the other: "I warned you, don't mention the name 'Xiaoyi' in front of me."

Their bodies were so close together, Bai Muqing could feel the changes in his body, remembering what happened on the stairs two days ago, she had no doubt that Nangong Chen would want her here.

In order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, she hurriedly said, "I'm not feeling well, can you let me go?"

"Where is it uncomfortable?" Nangong Chen glanced at her, and pointed at the scar on her forehead: "Here? Or here?" The finger slid down and stopped on the tooth mark on her shoulder.

Looking at his mocking face, Bai Muqing said speechlessly, "Aren't you proud to see the scars you created all over my body?"

"Not much at all." Nangong Chen shook his head, his eyes swept over her body again: "In the days to come, I will make you bruised."

Bai Muqing was frightened by him, and then struggled out of his arms.

Nangong Chen didn't make things difficult for her, and let her grab a big towel and wrap it around her body to escape from the bathroom.

After escaping from the bathroom, Bai Muqing secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and turned her head to glance in the direction of the bathroom.Even she herself didn't expect that Nangong Chen would let her go. In the past, he would have pushed her down and bullied her long ago.

Maybe he was tired today and didn't want it.

After escaping from the bathroom, Bai Muqing realized that she had no clothes to wear. The closet was full of Nangong Chen's clothes, not even a piece of women's clothing.

You can't always be surrounded by a big towel like this, can you?She rummaged in the closet for a long time, and finally found a white shirt to put on her body.Fortunately, his shirt was relatively long, barely covering his thighs.

After getting dressed, she walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out through the glass.It was still raining below, and the surface of the river was dark. She prayed secretly in her heart, hoping that everything would be fine for Xiaoyi!
When Nangong Chen came out of the bathroom, he saw her standing in front of the French window wearing her own shirt, and kept pulling down the hem of the shirt with both hands.However, no matter how she pulled it, those two long, slender white legs were still fully exposed.

Bai Muqing was uncomfortably stared at by him, and hurriedly said: "I don't have any clothes to wear, so just... lend me some clothes for one night, and I'll return the clothes to you when they're dry tomorrow."

Nan Gongchen withdrew his gaze from her, and walked towards the living room while wiping his hair, ignoring her.

Bai Muqing stayed in the bedroom for a while, and when she heard Nangong Chen calling for takeaway, Ruo hurried out and snatched the phone from him, and said to the takeaway operator on the other end of the phone: "Please bring some ginger, thank you."

The operator on the other end readily agreed, and after giving her address, she handed the phone back to Nangong Chen.

Nangong Chen took the phone and asked, "What do you want ginger for?"

"Cook ginger soup to prevent colds." Bai Muqing looked at the mobile phone he had thrown beside the sofa, secretly thinking about how to borrow his mobile phone to make a call.

Seeing that she was still pulling at the hem of her shirt, Nangong Chen finally couldn't help but reminded: "If you pull my shirt again, it will deform."

After finishing speaking, he said another sentence immediately: "Also, I'm not interested in you tonight, so don't always show off in front of me."

Bai Muqing was a little speechless, as if she said it on purpose.

But even though he said so, she felt relieved, and went back to the bathroom to clean up their clothes.

The takeaway was delivered soon, Bai Muqing sliced ​​the ginger and cooked it on the pot, and then walked out to have dinner with him face to face.

Nangong Chen seemed to be very busy, even looking at documents while eating, and the two of them had almost zero communication after a meal.

After dinner, Nangong Chen turned to work in front of the computer. Bai Muqing put the boiled ginger soup on the corner of his table and said, "I remember drinking it while it's hot. It won't be so effective when it's cold."

"Have you drunk?" Nangong Chen didn't raise his head.

"I'll drink it in a while."

Nan Gongchen didn't say anything anymore, and found that she hadn't left after a while, so he raised his head and stared at her unfriendlyly: "If you have something to say, just say it."

"It's nothing." Seeing his expression, Bai Muqing immediately dismissed the idea of ​​borrowing his cell phone to make a call.

"Then I'll go to bed first." She pointed in the direction of the bedroom, then turned and left his study.

Bai Muqing tactfully walked to the bed in the guest bedroom and lay down, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.The next door is where she lived with her mother and Xiaoyi at the beginning, and she also got married from the next room that day.

At the beginning, she promised Xiaoyi that when she got married, she would come back often to accompany him and make roasted chicken wings for him.Unexpectedly, after this marriage, she would never see Xiaoyi again, and she didn't even know where he was.

Bai Muqing sat up from the bed suddenly, wondering if the room next door had been cleaned?There's a phone there, there's clothes, she can sneak over there and look.

After making up her mind, she carefully locked the door of the guest bedroom, creating the illusion that she was asleep.Then sneaked into the living room, stood in the living room for a while without hearing any movement, and then continued to sneak towards the gate.

What surprised her was that the password of the door next door hadn't been changed. She opened the door carefully, and it was pitch black inside, obviously no one lived there.

There was no one living here before, and naturally there won't be any now. She raised her hand and pressed a light button, and the room was immediately lit up.

It's a pity that the house has been tidied up, all the things they used are gone, even the clothes in the closet have been emptied.

Standing in front of the empty wardrobe, Bai Muqing took a light breath in disappointment.

She remembered her real purpose of coming here, so she walked quickly to the bedside table, picked up the extension phone on it and tried to dial the number, and it got through.

The phone rang for a long time before Su Xi's weak voice came from the other end: "Mu Qing, are you free?"

Bai Muqing was stunned for a moment, and asked with concern: "Xiaoxi, what's wrong with you? Why do you look weak."

"It's nothing, it's just a little uncomfortable." Su Xi changed her words and said, "You want to ask about the appraisal result, right? I'm going to disappoint you again. That child has nothing to do with you."

"It's okay?" Bai Muqing's heart sank, she was really disappointed.

"I told you that you weren't born when I was thrown at the gate of the orphanage, but you didn't believe me, it was a waste of time." Su Xi sighed: "But don't be too sad, take your time. "

Bai Muqing tightened her grip on the receiver, suppressing her sadness and said: "Alright then, I understand."

"Mu Qing, are you okay now?"

"It's pretty good." Bai Muqing was in great pain in her heart, so she said: "Xiaoxi, thank you, take good care of yourself, I'll die first."

"okay, bye."

Bai Muqing hung up the phone and slowly sat on the edge of the bed.

In fact, she didn't have any hope before going to the orphanage, but now she is very disappointed to hear that the child has nothing to do with her.

The only little clue was also interrupted, and she didn't know where to find it.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Muqing began to sit on the edge of the bed and think about things. She even forgot the time. She didn't even notice the sound of footsteps coming from the bedroom door.

When Nangong Chen finished his work and returned to the bedroom to sleep, he found that she was not in the master bedroom. If he went to the guest bedroom to find someone, he found that the door of the guest bedroom was locked.Not knowing why, he found the key and opened the door of the guest bedroom.

Finding that there was no one there, he almost lost his breath in anger.

At that moment, several thoughts flashed through his mind. Maybe she took the opportunity to escape, or maybe she just wanted to go downstairs because the rain stopped.He would rather believe it was the latter, so he walked out of the terrace and began to look down at the garden downstairs.

However, when he saw that the lights in the next room were actually on, the anger that had finally calmed down in his heart came up again.

He walked over, entered the password of the door from memory, and when he entered the room, he saw her inside.

Yes, she is in it.

Sitting alone on the edge of the bed, I don't know what I am recalling, and I am so obsessed with it.

Even, she didn't feel him standing at the door of the bedroom for 3 minutes.

"What? I'm gone, can I only rely on memories to feel the happiness of the past?" His tone suppressed great anger.

Startled, Bai Muqing stood up from the edge of the bed and stared at him: "Why are you here?"

"What if I don't come? Are you going to remember here until dawn?" Nangong Chen took a few steps forward, grabbed her slender waist with one hand, pulled her into his arms, then turned around slightly, and glanced at the person in front of him. Big bed: "Are you recalling the scene where you were lingering and passionate on this bed?"

When Bai Muqing heard that he had misunderstood, she hurriedly said, "No!"

"No? Then why did you sneak here at night to be in a daze?"

"I came here mainly to see if my previous clothes were still there. I was in a daze... because I remembered Xiaoyi."

"This is obviously the master bedroom, why don't you go to Xiaoyi's room and think about it?"

"I..." Bai Muqing was speechless.

She was originally a person who was not good at arguing, and her brain froze immediately when he pressed her like this.

"What? Can't speak?" Nangong Chen's palm covered her hip, and with a slight upward stroke, she stroked the big shirt on her waist.He nibbled his lips next to her ear: "You said... Do I want to erase your memory on this bed?"

After finishing speaking, his body turned around, and he rolled her down on the big soft bed.

Bai Muqing struggled and pushed his body anxiously, and said loudly: "Nangong Chen! How many times do you have to tell me to believe that Lin Annan and I are innocent?!"

"I don't believe it no matter how many times I say it!" Nan Gongchen gritted his teeth.

He only knew that she and Lin Annan had been together for three years, that they were happy in the beginning, and he also knew that she had a happy smile on her face when she stood on the stage and exchanged rings with him.

All he knew was the best of her and Lin Annan.

He didn't believe in herself, Bai Muqing could only be helpless, she turned her face away and closed her eyes, as if letting him vent.

Anyway, these days, it is common for Nangong Chen to do this kind of thing to her, and the more she struggles, the more possessive he will be aroused.

Although he said that he wanted to erase the memory of the two of them on this bed, Nan Gongchen still felt awkward when he actually did it.I have never even sat on another man's bed before, let alone doing such a thing on it.

He sat up from the bed like this, grabbed the disheveled Bai Muqing from the bed, and dragged her towards the door.After taking her all the way to his home, he grabbed the shirt on her chest with the other hand and pulled it vigorously. The button of the shirt was instantly torn off by him, exposing his slender and well-proportioned body in front of him.

Bai Muqing let out a low cry, and before she had time to protest, she was pushed down on the bed by him, and then his lips kissed her, biting her neck.

Every time he was angry, he would possess her with strong emotions, as if only in this way could she have a long memory and make her realize that she was his and could only belong to him forever.Regardless of his wife's status or his lover, she can't escape from him.

She was only wearing a shirt, which saved Nangong Chen a lot of trouble. He quickly took off the bathrobe on his body, and completely blended his body with her.

He didn't want her tonight, but she wanted to provoke him, and successfully stimulated all the lust hidden in his body.

Since he couldn't escape, there was no need to escape, and it wasn't the first time.Bai Muqing raised her arms to hug his waist, pandering to all his enthusiasm.

Until he is satisfied and tired.

And at this moment, Bai Muqing had long been limp into a ball, even unable to pick up the clothes he threw under the bed.The two fell asleep in such an embrace, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, Bai Muqing woke up early. When she moved her body, the first thing she smelled was a unique and familiar masculine scent.She opened her eyes in a daze and only then did she realize that she was nestling in Nangong Chen's arms.

She moved her body back a little, and found that he was fast asleep, with a quiet and peaceful handsome face.

The morning sun shines on the two of them through the window screen, Bai Muqing only thinks that he is as good-looking as otherworldly.From this point of view, he is obviously full of vigor and sunshine, but why is he always so violent and cruel on weekdays?
"Does it look good?" A faint sentence suddenly sounded in his ear.

Bai Muqing came back to her senses, only to realize that Nangong Chen had opened her eyes at some point, but the indifference in her eyes instantly made the vitality in this room lose its color.

"Nice." She replied stupidly.

"Compared to your Lin Shao?"

"Better than him."

Nangong Chen looked at her, and Bai Muqing hurriedly said: "Look, you don't believe me when I tell the truth, and you don't like it when I tell lies. I don't even know how I should communicate with you."

Nangong Chen mockingly smiled, and glanced down at her body.

Sensing his gaze sweeping over, Bai Muqing hurriedly pulled the quilt over her bare chest.By the way, half of the quilt was lifted to cover him to avoid embarrassment.

Bai Muqing felt that his gaze was gradually burning with lust, and thought that he would not want to have another morning exercise, right?It's best not to, because her body is still soft.

Fortunately, at this moment, Nangong Chen's cell phone rang.

Bai Muqing reached out to help him take the phone off the bedside table, glanced at the number on the screen, and found that the old house was calling.

Nangong Chen took the phone and pressed the connect button, and Sister He's voice came from the phone: "Eldest young master, the old lady asked you to bring the young lady back for dinner tonight."

"Why?" Nangong Chen lowered his head and glanced at Bai Muqing.

"No reason, let's have dinner on the weekend." Sister He said with a smile.

Nangong Chen thought for a while and said, "Okay, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Nan Gongchen put one palm under his head and gently turned the phone that was already hung up.

Bai Muqing vaguely heard something, staring at his side face and asked: "The old lady wants me to go back to have dinner?"

Nangong Chen turned his head sideways: "Don't want to go?"

"I really don't want to, after all now..."

"What now?"

Bai Muqing hesitated for a moment before carefully replying: "The status is different now, it's not suitable."

She knew that when she said this, Nangong Chen would definitely think of being cheated again, and would get angry again, so she hastily added: "But if you let me go, I will go anyway."

Fortunately, Nangong Chen didn't get angry, but sat up from the bed, got out of bed and said calmly while getting dressed, "I'll ask Secretary Liu to accompany you to Huamao for a stroll, buy a set of decent clothes, and arrive at Huamao after shopping." The office is waiting for me to get off work, and then we will go back to the old house together."

Bai Muqing was embarrassed to look directly at his naked body, so she lowered her head for a long time.

Nangong Chen turned his head and saw that she was buried in her head and didn't know what to think, and frowned: "Are you listening to me?"

Bai Muqing hurriedly raised her face and said, "I heard it."

"I heard you, why don't you get up and change quickly?"

Bai Muqing immediately got out of bed, put on the shirt that he threw on the ground last night, and then went to the balcony to see if the clothes that were drying outside were dry.

Seeing her walking out on the terrace in such a naked way, Nangong Chen felt annoyed, stepped forward to catch up with her and dragged her back from the terrace, and said in an annoyed tone: "With your small stature, you still want to make the whole garden Did everyone see it?"

Bai Muqing was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and glanced at herself.

Although the shirt looks very sexy on her body, except for a pair of legs, it seems that there is no other place that is too much exposed, right?What's more, the distance between the buildings is so wide, and there are guardrails blocking it, so people in the opposite building can't see clearly.

But what he said was always right, and she didn't bother arguing with him anymore.

"I just want to bring in my outer clothes," she said.

Nangong Chen let go of her, took the clothes hanging on the balcony and threw them on her.

After Bai Muqing changed her clothes, Nangong Chen was also fully dressed.

The two left the apartment together, and had breakfast at a nearby Hong Kong-style breakfast shop. When they came out, Bai Muqing thought that Nan Gongchen would throw herself to Secretary Liu, but unexpectedly he asked her to get into his car.

The route the car drove was not in the direction of Nangong Group, nor in the direction of Huamao, but Bai Muqing didn't care too much, anyway, no matter where she went, she didn't have the right to choose.

She didn't look out the window until the car stopped.

Through the windshield, she could see the big characters Civil Affairs Bureau in front of her at a glance. She leaned forward a little, trying to make herself see more clearly.That's right, it's the Civil Affairs Bureau of City C.

She turned her head suspiciously, stared at Nangong Chen who was taking off her seat belt and asked, "What did you bring me here for?"

Nan Gongchen didn't look at her, and said calmly: "Didn't you say that your status is not suitable and you don't want to go to the old house?"

"What do you mean?" Bai Muqing was taken aback for a moment.

What does he mean?Wouldn't it be to take her to get married?

"Registration." Nangong Chen found that she was still wearing a seat belt, so he stretched out his hand to press the buckle of her seat belt, and immediately retracted the seat belt that was originally stuck on Bai Muqing's body.

"But... I didn't bring anything, not even an ID card." Bai Muqing was a little flustered.

"Don't worry, I've got everything for you."

"How do you have my information?"

Nangong Chen raised his wrist and looked at the dial, with impatience already on his face: "Miss Bai, are you sure you want to discuss this issue with me in detail here? I have to go to work."

Bai Muqing stared at him, and finally said after a while: "Marriage is a lifelong event, don't you ask me if I agree to marry you?"

"Then what do you mean now? Do you disagree?"

"I have the right to refuse?"

"you have not."
