the seventh bride

Chapter 175 Mo Ming's Anxiety

After eating cake with the children, Bai Muqing said goodbye to everyone and left the orphanage.

When going out, Zhu Zhu asked her with a smile if she wanted to have lunch together, but Bai Muqing naturally refused.

Zhu Zhu didn't say much, and when he got to the side of the car, he asked, "Mu Qing, did you drive here? Can you take me for a ride?"

Bai Muqing looked at her, and asked mockingly: "Isn't your car dozens of times more expensive than mine? Why don't you drive it?"

Zhu Zhu smiled a little embarrassedly: "I'm here for charity, and driving such a nice car is easy to cause misunderstanding."

"That's true." Bai Muqing nodded, and then said, "But I'm sorry, I'm not on your way back to the old house."

"No, I'm not going back to the small villa, just go to the Baihui supermarket in front of me." Zhu Zhu stared at her with a hurt expression on his face: "Mu Qing, you still seem to be so hostile to me, but I I really want to be your friend."

"Okay, don't be hypocritical, get in the car." Bai Muqing walked around to the driver's cab, opened the door and sat in.

Zhu Zhu also opened the door on the other side to get in the car, and said gratefully: "Thank you, I can save more than a dozen yuan in taxi fare."

Bai Muqing curled her lips disapprovingly, thinking that this woman really knows how to pretend, Nangong Chen can give her a good car and a house, maybe she just swiped the gold card casually, and she's still calling poor here?
But she didn't say anything, started the car and left the gate of the orphanage.

The car was driving in traffic, Zhu Zhu looked sideways at Bai Muqing and said, "By the way, Mu Qing, did Young Master Chen tell you about the time I saved him when I was young?"

Bai Muqing turned her head to look at her, nodded, "I mentioned it."

"Then what did he say? Did he tell you where I rescued him?"

Bai Muqing stopped the car on the side of the road and stared at her: "Miss Zhu, do you think this question is suitable for sharing with me? Do you think I would be interested in knowing? Didn't you say that you have completely given up on Young Master Chen? ? Then why do you have to bring it up again? Are you deliberately trying to block my heart?"

"No, Mu Qing, you have misunderstood. Actually, I just asked casually." Zhu Zhu shook his head in a panic, "I don't remember that incident, but it's inconvenient to ask Young Master Chen, so..."

"So you want to know from me?"

"Yes."

"If you give up on Young Master Chen, why are you still looking for memories of the past?"

"Me." Zhu Zhu's face darkened, and he sighed helplessly: "Actually, I did this to make a more thorough settlement of the past, Mu Qing, can you tell me."

"I'm sorry, I don't know, because I wasn't in the mood to listen when Young Master Chen told me." After Bai Muqing threw this sentence at her, she restarted the car.

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Zhu Zhu had no choice but to give a soft 'oh': "Okay then, I understand."

It seemed that he was still too impatient and asked too early, Zhu Zhu thought helplessly in his heart.

Baihui Supermarket was ahead, Bai Muqing parked the car on the side of the road and stared at her, "The supermarket is here."

Zhu Zhu turned his head and glanced out of the window, with a smile on his face again: "Thank you, I will treat you to dinner another day to repay you."

"The money for a meal can take a dozen taxis." Bai Muqing mockingly smiled.

Zhu Zhu scratched his head embarrassingly: "Actually, I just want to invite you to dinner, but it seems that you are not very flattering, so forget it."

After speaking, she opened the car door, thanked her again, and then closed the car door and walked towards the supermarket.

Seeing her leaving back, Bai Muqing's doubts began to burn again. This woman insisted on getting into her car, and when she came up, she didn't seem to have done anything bad except for asking her a few nonsense, that's all. Get off?

It's impossible to buy a car just to save more than a dozen dollars, right?

I can't figure it out!
Bai Muqing parked the car in the garage of the old house, when a notification sound came from her mobile phone, she picked up the mobile phone beside her and clicked on the message box, the message only had two short words: Received.

Bai Muqing didn't want to respond to the inexplicable text message at first.But when she saw the number, she had to put her finger back on the screen.She looked and looked, and there was only one message, just two words.

She didn't know whether Lin Annan sent the word Lin Annan by mistake or what happened, but in order to avoid trouble, she still ignored him and deleted the message conveniently.

Nangong Chen went out, and Bai Muqing slept and read at home alone in the afternoon.

Nangong Chen didn't come back until the evening. While waiting for Nangong Chen to take a shower, Bai Muqing was bored on her mobile phone to check her mailbox. Among the several work emails, there was a personal email that was extremely conspicuous, and the sender was actually Lin Annan's.

The email address is a URL and a sentence: This is my new company.

Lin Annan's new company?When did he register the new company?Confused, she opened the URL above, and a page of the company's website immediately appeared on the page.

Ruian Decoration Company?Bai Muqing looked at the logo above in surprise. As a colleague, she certainly knew about this new company, but she didn't expect that the behind-the-scenes boss of the company was actually Lin Annan!

Although this company is new, one can tell at a glance that the company is well-funded and has a background.Colleagues often talk about this company, calling it the latest powerful faction.

Lin Annan registered a new company, and it was registered in City C, so is he coming back soon?Although she felt that it was pitiful for him to be driven abroad, she felt uneasy when she thought that he would come back to City C and pester her again.

Lin Annan has been looking for her so frequently recently, is it because he is coming back soon?
The more Bai Muqing thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and gradually lost her mind.

Until Nangong Chen came out of the bathroom and saw her sitting on the bed with her mobile phone in a daze, deliberately slowed down and walked towards her, threw herself on her and said, "What are you watching so fascinated by?"

Bai Muqing was startled by him, and the phone in her hand fell on the quilt.

Nangong Chen saw the company LOGO on the screen at a glance. He picked up the phone and swiped the screen a few times with his thumb and asked, "Why? Are you interested in this company?"

Seeing him take away her mobile phone, Bai Muqing began to feel uneasy, she hurriedly shook her head: "No, it's just a new company, it seems to be pretty good after listening to colleagues discussing it."

"It's really not bad." Nangong Chen continued to swipe the screen with his thumb: "It looks like the prince is playing with a big bag of funds."

"Hehe, maybe it is." Bai Muqing looked at the expression on Nangong Chen's face, fortunately he didn't know that this company was run by Lin Annan, otherwise he must have misunderstood her again.

She reached for the phone and said, "Okay, go to bed early."

Nangong Chen nodded, hugged her and lay down under the blanket.

********
Bai Muqing didn't expect what she was worried about to happen so quickly. When she saw Lin Annan's figure appearing in front of her, she was so surprised that she could hardly speak.

He actually returned to his country, actually he really returned to his country!

how can that be possible?Didn't the elders of the Lin family have clearly promised Nangong Chen that he would never let him return to China in this life?How come... came back in just over half a year?
Of course she turned around and left, but Lin Annan caught up with her two steps ahead, grabbed her wrist and said, "Mu Qing, don't leave yet, listen to me to say a few words."

"I don't want to hear it." Bai Muqing shook her head and began to struggle.

Lin Annan's tone was pleading: "Mu Qing, I came back to help my mother celebrate her birthday, and I will leave after the birthday is over, so please don't do this, please? Sit with me for a while and say a few words .”

"You know that I have nothing to tell you." Bai Muqing became a little anxious, with more requests than him: "If Chen sees me with you, he will be unhappy again."

Lin Annan's tone became obviously displeased: "Is he the only one in your heart now? I saved your life anyway, but I didn't even have a chance to have a cup of coffee with you? Bai Muqing, do you insist? Are you so heartless? You should know that the more heartless you are, the more unwilling I will be."

"Me." Bai Muqing was rendered speechless by what he said.

Lin Annan continued to question: "Why do you avoid me like a snake? Do you insist on forcing me to drag you into the coffee shop in front of everyone?"

Bai Muqing couldn't answer, but Lin Annan pulled her wrist and turned her around, pointing to the jewelry store not far away: "Remember what you said to me when we were picking out wedding rings here? Remember Did you say anything to me on the eve of the wedding? Did you forget all of that?"

"Yes, I've forgotten all about it, long ago." Bai Muqing shook her head, "So please let me go, okay? It's time for us to make a proper end.

Lin Annan stared at her, sighed discouragedly, and nodded: "Okay, you want to make a break with me, don't you? Come in with me, and I'll give you a break."

After speaking, he turned around and walked into the coffee shop next to him.

Bai Muqing was hesitant to go in with him, of course she didn't want to go in, but she really wanted to end it too much, really wanted to end her entangled relationship with Lin Annan.

After struggling for a long time, she finally followed into the coffee shop.

The coffee shop in the shopping mall is open, and although the two chose a corner location, Bai Muqing still felt uncomfortable and insecure.

She picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip, relieved the uneasiness in her heart and said: "If you have something to say, hurry up, I still have something to rush back."

Seeing her at a loss, Lin Annan laughed at himself: "Since when did you feel like you were having an affair even sitting with me?"

"Annan, I beg you, please don't do this, okay?" Bai Muqing turned her head and glanced around. For some reason, she always felt that there were eyes staring at her around her. This feeling started from the moment she met Lin Annan. There is.

"Don't what?"

"Don't contact me again, I've told you many times, I'm married to Nangong Chen, and we don't intend to divorce."

"Mu Qing, you are not the person Nangong Chen is looking for at all, you don't even know this, do you?" Lin Annan shook his head: "There will be no result between you and him, last time it was Bai Yingan, this time it is Bai Yingan His destined lover is the old lady, do you think Nangong Chen can control everything with one hand like last time?"

Bai Muqing heard this kind of talk too much, and got tired of hearing it.

She said helplessly: "No matter what happens in the future, Nangong Chen and I will not be separated now. We will try our best and work hard, so please don't come and tell me these things in advance, okay?"

Lin Annan became furious: "Why don't you listen to persuasion so much? Do you have to wait until you are dying to repent?"

"Lin Annan!" Bai Muqing stood up from the chair: "I came in with you because you said you would give me a break, but your attitude is still the same, and it's still irritating. If that's the case, there's nothing to say, I I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, Bai Muqing turned around and walked towards the exit of the coffee shop.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she walked out of the coffee shop and found that Lin Annan hadn't caught up.

However, before she could walk out of the gate of the mall, the phone in her bag rang.She thought it was Lin Annan who called, so she speeded up her pace, trying to leave the mall as quickly as possible.

And at this moment, Nan Gongchen on the other end of the phone continued to dial Bai Muqing's number with his landline while sliding the screen with his thumb to look at the photo above.

There are three photos in total, one is Bai Muqing and Lin Annan looking at each other at the door of the coffee shop, one is the two sitting in the corner of the coffee shop, and the other is Lin Annan holding Bai Muqing's wrist.

No matter which one it was, it could make his eyes hurt and turn red at this moment, and arouse his anger soaring, but at this moment, Bai Muqing didn't answer her phone no matter what.

He was so angry that he smashed the phone, startling Assistant Yan who was beside him.

"Young Master Chen, are you okay?" Assistant Yan stared at him and asked cautiously.

Although he didn't know what happened, there was no one other than Bai Muqing who could make Nangong Chen so angry.

"Are you calling Mrs. Young? It's off-duty time and she may be driving and it's inconvenient to answer the phone. You can call again later." Before she could finish speaking, Nangong Chen had already swept away like the wind.

After Nangong Chen got into the car, he drove directly towards Huamao.

During lunch today, Bai Muqing thought his shirt was ugly, and even claimed that she would go to Huamao to buy a shirt for him after get off work.He didn't know if she was the coffee in Huamao, but he rushed there anyway.

However, he searched around in the coffee shop but couldn't find Bai Muqing.

After Bai Muqing came out of Huamao, she went home directly. When she got home, she threw her bag on the sofa and went to the bathroom with her pajamas to take a shower. She could still hear her mobile phone ringing through the door.Annoyed, she plunged into the water flow of the shower head.

Closing her eyes, her mind was full of the worries that Lin Annan had brought her these days. Lin Annan was not like this at all, why did she seem to be a different person after the Nangongchen incident?
She really didn't know what to do with him.

After staying in the water for a while, Bai Muqing turned off the water valve, put on her clothes and went out.

As soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, the door of the bedroom was pushed open, and the fierce Nangong Chen stepped in.

Bai Muqing was taken aback, and looked at him in surprise: "Chen, didn't you say that you have to work overtime for important work? Why?"

"Where did you go just now?" Nan Gongchen interrupted her, and came to her in a few steps, and grabbed her neck with his palm.

Bai Muqing was taken aback by his anger, and instinctively said, "Go to Huamao to buy you a shirt."

In my heart, I have already been hit by a layer of bad premonition, why is Nangong Chen so angry?Did he already know about her meeting with Lin Annan?Generally, except for other men's affairs, nothing can make him so angry.

"Where's the shirt? Have you got it yet?"

"No." Bai Muqing was tongue-tied, she met Lin Annan just after arriving in Huamao, and she hadn't had time to go shopping yet.

"Didn't buy a shirt? Then what are you doing in Huamao?" Nangong Chen tightened his grip on her neck a little, and Bai Muqing immediately felt that she had difficulty breathing.

Nangong Chen asked again: "What is so important, so important that you can't answer my call? Tell me."

Bai Muqing's mind went blank. Could it be that he made so many calls just now, not Lin Annan?God, she thought it was Lin Annan, and let the phone rang all the way.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you who called me. I didn't mean not to answer your call."

"I asked who you were with just now." Nan Gongchen asked impatiently. Although he knew the answer, he still wanted to tell it from her mouth.

But Bai Muqing thought that he was angry because she didn't answer the phone. In order to avoid arousing his greater anger, she shook her head: "I didn't."

Those three short words aroused all the anger that Nangong Chen could hold back in his heart. Angrily, he threw her on the sofa next to her, and angrily scolded: "Bai Muqing! I think you will never change your nature. I can't change your lying personality!"

He took a step forward angrily, leaned over and stared at her: "Are you going to tell me that you went shopping in Huamao today, but you didn't see a suitable shirt and came back like this?"

While Nangong Chen was speaking, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, pressed it a few times, and handed it to her: "There are so many people in the world who are looking forward to our divorce, and so many eyes staring at us, how dare you hide it behind your back?" Am I dating Lin Annan?"

When Bai Muqing saw the photo of herself and Lin Annan on the phone screen, her face was immediately stunned.Then he snatched the phone away and browsed through the three photos inside.

"Do you want to argue again that these photos are synthetic? It has nothing to do with you?" Nangong Chen continued to grit his teeth.

"It's not what you saw and thought." Bai Muqing stood up from the sofa after being stunned for a long while, stared at Nangong Chen and shook her head anxiously: "Chen, listen to me, I met Lin Lin when I walked to China Central Place. Annan, he said he would give me a break, so I went into the coffee shop with him. I sat with him in the coffee shop for less than 5 minutes. These photos were taken by Lin Annan on purpose , he did it on purpose."

Nan Gongchen just stared at her, obviously giving her a chance to continue making up.

Bai Muqing was anxious to clarify herself, so she could only continue to speak: "After I walked in with him, he didn't give me a final word, but repeated what he said before, and then I turned around and left. I After running out of the shopping mall, I did hear the phone ringing, but I didn't know it was you calling, I thought it was Lin Annan, so I didn't answer it."

"I didn't mean to lie to you. I was afraid that you would lose your temper like this after meeting Lin Annan. Please believe me." Bai Muqing's eyes were red with anxiety.

She just stood there and stared at Nangong Chen, then reached out and grabbed his wrist and shook it: "Don't be angry, next time I see him again, I will definitely turn around and leave, no matter what he says, I won't talk to him again Would you like to say one more word?"

Nangong Chen looked at her self-blaming and sad face, and sneered: "It's kind of like that."

"I didn't make it up, I'm telling the truth." Bai Muqing hurriedly shook her head and grabbed his wrist: "I swear I didn't lie to you, Chen, didn't you say we should trust each other? I believe you and Zhu Zhu Why can't you trust me and Lin Annan?"

Her explanation did make Nan Gongchen's anger a lot better, but she still had a bitter heart about her meeting Lin Annan.

No one knew whether these photos were taken by Lin Annan, but it was true that Bai Muqing was sitting with Lin Annan in the coffee shop.

He took a deep breath, stared at her and said, "I can forgive you this time, but I don't fully trust you, so you should be clean and self-respecting in the future, and don't let me see you with him again. I saw this kind of photo." Nangong Chen picked up the mobile phone she put on the table, deleted the photos in it, and looked up at her again: "If these photos are spread to grandma's eyes, you will definitely not be able to eat them again. Walk around."

Bai Muqing lowered her eyes, not daring to say anything.

However, no matter whether these photos reach the eyes of the old lady, the old lady does not intend to accept her.

She didn't expect that Lin Annan would do such a despicable thing, and upload the photo to Nangong Chen's mobile phone so quickly, obviously she and him sat in the coffee shop for less than 5 minutes.

She wanted to make a phone call right away to scold Lin Annan, but after thinking about it, she decided to forget it, and draw a line with him from this moment on.

*******
After Nangong Chen left, Bai Muqing watched TV alone in the bedroom, but the TV screen was passing, but her mind couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all, and she couldn't watch it at all.

Then, she just fell asleep on the sofa.

Sleeping on the sofa was somewhat deliberate, because she usually slept on the sofa like this, until Nan Gongchen carried her to the bed when he returned to his room after finishing his work.

She likes the feeling of being gently carried to bed by him. She wonders if he will hold her up tonight, subconsciously, she just wants to know how angry he is with herself.

However, when she woke up, she was disappointed.

She was still lying on the sofa, and the bedding on the bed was neat and tidy, exactly the same as last night.

Obviously, Nangong Chen didn't go back to his room to sleep last night.

It seemed that he was really angry, so angry that he didn't even want to go back to the room.

Lin Annan, is this his purpose?Did he think that by doing this, he could drive a wedge between her and Nan Gongchen and return to him?When will his thinking be less extreme?

She quietly sat up from the sofa, walked barefoot to the floor-to-ceiling windows, opened the curtains, and a warm sun shot in through the windows in an instant.

Today's weather is really good. Compared with the cold inside, it looks much more comfortable outside.

When her eyes swept over the swimming pool in the garden, she unexpectedly saw a figure floating inside.She put her palm on her forehead and opened her eyes wide, only to find that it was Nangong Chen.

He was actually swimming in such a cold day, he was really desperate!

She turned around and walked towards the door. Those who went downstairs happened to see Pu Lianyao watching TV in the living room. Pu Lianyao looked at her and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, where are you going in such a hurry?"

"I saw Eldest Young Master actually swimming in such a cold day." Bai Muqing said.

Pu Lianyao smiled: "Cousin used to swim a lot in winter, and I'm used to it. Didn't you care about grandma without seeing her?"

That's right, if he wasn't used to it, the old lady would have ordered someone to lift him out of the water long ago. After all, the old lady regarded him as important even her own life.

She smiled: "That's it."

She thought he was stimulated, but luckily it was just a habit.

But she didn't give up the idea of ​​going to the swimming pool, and walked around from the front room to the backyard, and came to the edge of the swimming pool.

Bai Muqing squatted by the pool to test the water temperature, the outdoor pool was indeed very cold.

A figure suddenly appeared under the calm water, Bai Muqing was startled, and instinctively stepped back.

When she saw that it was Nangong Chen, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, splashed a handful of cold water on his face, and asked, "Is it cold?"

Nangong Chen closed his eyes for a moment, then grabbed her arm with one hand, and pushed her head to the water surface with the other: "Try it and you will know."

"Hmm." Bai Muqing only felt a chill on her face, as cold as a knife cut.

She was originally afraid of water, but when he pushed her into the water, she was so frightened that she waved her hands and screamed, "Help!"

A string of bubbles popped up on the surface of the water, although Nangong Chen quickly pushed her out of the water, but she was still scared out of her wits, coughing heavily while wiping the water drops on her face with both hands desperately , It took a long time to catch my breath.

She opened her eyes, looked at Nangong Chen's malicious face, felt a chill in her heart, and said angrily: "Nangong Chen! You know that I am most afraid of water! You are still like this!"

"If you're not afraid of water, I won't be bothered to let you try it." Nangong Chen stared at her who was dripping with water all over her hair: "How is it? Is it cold?"

"You bastard!" Bai Muqing scooped up water with her hand and sprinkled it on his face.

Nangong Chen avoided it for a while, clasped her arm again with his palm, and supported her small face with the other hand to press down on the water.

Bai Muqing thought that he was going to sink her face down into the water again, she closed her eyes in fright and screamed, but what was waiting for her was not the cold pool water, but his slightly cool red lips.

She froze for a moment, and quickly supported his shoulders with both hands to prevent herself from falling into the water.

The tip of his tongue nimbly pried open her tense teeth, and kissed her deeply.

It was the first time in Bai Muqing's life that she tried such a posture, such a passionate kiss, she whimpered nervously and in fear.Nangong Chen enjoyed it quite a bit, provocatively provoking her mouth with the tip of his tongue, enjoying her tension and dependence on him at this moment.

If he was not afraid that she would catch a cold, he would have dragged her into the water long ago.

Bai Muqing finally understood that he was punishing her for meeting Lin Annan last night.It's just that this punishment is too terrible for her, she would rather be beaten severely by him than this!
Nangong Chen finally let go of her lips, pushed her body back to the shore, saw her panting and flushed face, and finally smiled with satisfaction.

"Next time you dare to secretly meet Lin Annan behind my back, or don't answer my phone, I will strip you naked and throw you into the water." Nan Gongchen spat out this sentence warningly.

"Why did you strip it naked and throw it in the water?" Bai Muqing asked teasingly.

"What do you think?" Nangong Chen's eyes flashed with ambiguity.

Bai Muqing finally came to her senses, her small face quickly heated up, and she tightly covered her face, she didn't even dare to think about that kind of scene.

While she was ashamed, Nan Gongchen jumped up from the water, picked up the bathrobe on the chair and tied it tightly around her body while walking towards the main house.

Bai Muqing stood up and followed his pace, and laughed happily when she saw his long back, it seemed that his anger had dissipated, it was great!

As soon as Nangong Chen turned around, he saw her trembling smile, the expression on her face froze, and she deliberately asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"No." Bai Muqing suppressed the smile on her face, but still couldn't resist her good mood.

She went up and hugged his arm: "Suddenly think you are so cute."

"You too." Nangong Chen raised his hand and brushed the wet hair on her cheek: "You are as cute as a drowned rat."

"You are the drowned chicken, no, you are her husband!" Bai Muqing put her arms around his arm, and the two walked into the house together.

When entering the living room, Pu Lianyao was still watching TV in the living room, and the old lady got up at some point.

Seeing the old lady, Bai Muqing immediately let go of Nangong Chen's arm, and called out respectfully: "Grandma, good morning."

The old lady raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them, and gave a light 'um'.

Pu Lianyao at the side smiled and said, "My eldest brother and sister-in-law have been married for almost two years, and their relationship is still so good, which is really enviable."

Bai Muqing glanced at Pu Lianyao, then looked at the old lady, these words must have been harsh to the old lady's ears.She didn't dare to say anything, she smiled at the two of them and said, "I'll go up and change first."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Nangong Chen, and walked upstairs quickly.

She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, the old lady would say something outrageous to her, and Nangong Chen would conflict with the old lady because of her.
