Nan Sun was afraid that the lock would be discovered, so she tried to push Li Mu out within two minutes.
He urged, "SuoSuo needs to get up. You should go downstairs for your morning exercise."
"Okay! Give me a kiss." Li Mu stood there with a smile.
Jiang Nansun rolled her eyes at him, then tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek. Only then did Li Mu leave with a smile.
……
It wasn't until after 10 a.m. that Nan Sun remembered her phone was still off. As soon as she turned it on, a series of text message notifications went off, some from Zhang Anren and others from the telecom operator.
Jiang Nansun scrolled through the text messages; most were from Zhang Anren last night—some were attempts to win her back, some were questions, and some were pleas. He didn't want to break up so easily and wanted Nansun to give them another chance.
Nan Sun sighed softly and deleted all the text messages. It was too late to say anything; there was no future for them, it was impossible.
No sooner had Nan Sun put down her phone than Zhang Anren called. Nan Sun didn't want to answer, but it was better to make things clear, so she eventually picked up the phone.
"Nan Sun, you finally answered my call. Why do you want to break up? I don't agree."
Jiang Nansun said, "Anren, things have already come to this, I don't want to say anything more, let's leave it at that."
Zhang Anren was not about to give up: "Nan Sun, I don't want to. If I want to break up, you have to give me a good reason."
Jiang Nansun hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yesterday afternoon, Suosuo and I went for coffee and saw you giving medicine to a waitress. She called you Brother Anren."
Zhang Anren was startled and quickly explained, "Nan Sun, it's not like that, don't misunderstand. She's from my hometown. It's not easy for her to work alone in Shanghai. She's sick and no one cares about her. I just brought her some medicine, nothing more."
"Nan Sun, you must believe me."
Seeing that Zhang Anren was still being evasive, Jiang Nansun became a little angry and his tone was no longer so polite.
“Anren, I remember when we were dating you said that you had never been in a relationship before, and that we were each other’s first love, right?”
Zhang Anren was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Nan Sun, did you hear something?"
Jiang Nansun said, "After you left, we asked the waitress at the coffee shop named Yuan Yuan. She said you two were childhood sweethearts and first love, starting in middle school, and now she is your girlfriend."
Zhang Anren was startled: "Nan Sun... I... I... I didn't mean to hide it from you. I was just thinking about our relationship and was afraid you would mind if you knew, so I didn't tell you more."
"Besides, that's all in the past. We broke up a long time ago. Now, my only girlfriend is you. She's not my girlfriend anymore, and we have nothing to do with each other."
"Nan Sun, you must believe me. Everything I do is for our future."
Jiang Nansun said earnestly, "Anren, we've already broken up. Yuan Yuan is a pretty good girl, don't let her down."
Zhang Anren panicked even more and explained, "Nan Sun, we really have nothing going on. Yuan Yuan and I dated for a while before, but we broke up a long time ago."
"She had just arrived in Shanghai and didn't know anyone here. I offered her as much help as I could, but that was all. There was really no other contact with her, just simple assistance."
"Nan Sun, you must believe me."
Jiang Nansun sighed, "Anren, you said that besides providing her with some help, you haven't had any other contact with her."
"Okay, then explain it to me. We talked yesterday, and she said you two live together."
Zhang Anren was stunned for a moment: "Nan Sun... I..."
Jiang Nansun continued, "I didn't quite believe her, so I stayed in the coffee shop for several hours, waiting for Yuan Yuan to get off work, and then went with her to the neighborhood where you lived in Sanlin."
“That girl named Yuan Yuan came up to the building where you live. I was afraid of misunderstanding and wondering if she was renting next door to you. I waited for a few minutes and then followed her upstairs. I knocked on your door, and Yuan Yuan opened it. She had changed into some casual clothes and was planning to cook for you. When she heard the knock, she thought you were back and immediately called out, ‘Brother Anren.’”
"Zhang Anren, I don't want to say any more. Let's leave it at that and part ways amicably. Don't let Yuan Yuan down."
Zhang Anren was stunned: "Nan Sun, don't overthink it, it's not like that. We really have nothing to do with each other. She came to Shanghai all alone, and I just let her stay at my house for a couple of days."
Jiang Nansun said, "Your ex-girlfriend is living with you, a single man and a single woman, and she calls you 'Brother Anren' every day. What do you think I should think?"
Chapter 212 Understanding
Zhang Anren was having a headache, feeling speechless and unsure how to explain himself.
The same applies in the drama. When Yuan Yuan comes to Shanghai, Zhang Anren says that she is his junior high school classmate and wants her to stay at his house for a while. At that time, the two had no conflicts, so Nan Sun rented a place next to Zhang Anren.
Upon hearing that Zhang Anren wanted his female classmate to stay at his house, Nan Sun naturally disagreed and ended up having Yuan Yuan stay with him instead.
Li Mu was also quite puzzled as to why Zhang Anren would let his ex-girlfriend stay at his house while he already had a girlfriend; he could only say that Zhang Anren was incredibly carefree. Excluding the possibility of rekindling their relationship, the only other reason might be saving money, but even that reason seemed a bit far-fetched.
But apart from this, there is really no other explanation.
Even after all this, Zhang Anren still didn't want to give up. Although he had indeed used some tricks and told some lies during their two-year relationship, he hadn't done anything that crossed the line.
He still loved Nan Sun and wanted to salvage the relationship as much as possible.
“Nan Sun, Yuan Yuan and I really have nothing going on. I was just helping her. We’ve been together for two years, and we can’t just end things like that. Nan Sun, you should give us both another chance, give our future a chance.”
Jiang Nansun said helplessly, "Anren, I want to tell you something. Think about it carefully after you hear it."
“You know my father invests in stocks, and he even forced you to sell your house to invest in him. But he hasn’t made any money all these years, he’s always been losing money. He’s sold off all our family’s antiques, heirloom jewelry, and other houses, and now our entire fortune is almost gone.”
"That's not all. As far as I know, he borrowed a lot of money outside and is now blinded by losses. A while ago, he even introduced me to a woman who was married with a child, asking me to be her stepmother."
"You've met my dad. He's such a proud man. He wouldn't do this unless he was desperate."
"Zhang Anren, after saying all this, you should understand what I mean. Have you thought it through what being with me means?"
“I grew up in luxury and had a lot of bad habits. My family is very likely to go bankrupt, or even be heavily in debt, the kind of debt that will be hard to pay off for many years.”
“Zhang Anren, if you stay with me, we will have to share these debts. They will weigh on us forever, making it hard to breathe and preventing us from ever getting out of this mess.”
"Have you thought it through? Are you willing to live this kind of life with me?"
The other side immediately fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Jiang Nansun sighed softly, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
"Anren, let's leave it at that. Let's part ways amicably and not contact each other again."
"Nan Sun, I...I..."
Jiang Nansun silently hung up the phone, ending things completely with Zhang Anren. She felt a sense of relief mixed with a touch of loss.
Zhang Anren ultimately did not become the person she had imagined.
Two days later, Jiang Nansun had fully recovered, but in order not to arouse Suo Suo's suspicion, he dared not openly stay overnight in Li Mu's bedroom.
That day, Zhu Suosuo got off work a little early and went to bed early at ten o'clock in order to catch up on sleep.
At 10:30 p.m., Li Mu finished showering and went straight to Nan Sun's bedroom. She had also just showered and was lying in bed. Li Mu picked her up and carried her to the master bedroom.
Nan Sun blushed deeply, her face flushed with embarrassment, and playfully punched Li Mu a few times with her small fists.
"You rascal, what if Suo Suo hears us?"
Li Mu said with a wicked smile, "Don't worry, the house is very soundproof. Besides, if Suo Suo hears anything, she'll find out sooner or later."
Before Nansun could say anything more, Li Mu pounced like a hungry tiger, instantly igniting the atmosphere in the room.
Li Mu and Nan Sun didn't spend much time together. They had some feelings for each other and a bit of ambiguity, but it wouldn't be realistic to say they had deep feelings or were in love.
But now, just two days after the breakup, Zhang Anren's image in her mind is fading more and more. Even when she thinks of him, it's like he's just an ordinary friend, and she feels no emotional turmoil whatsoever.
At the same time, through sports and communication, Li Mu has become deeply imprinted on her mind and body, and her mind and body have gradually transferred to him.
After a long while, Jiang Nansun finally caught her breath, lay on Li Mu's chest and drew circles, saying softly, "Have you thought about when to meet my parents and let them know about our relationship?"
Li Mu said, "I'm ready anytime, whatever you say."
Jiang Nansun's face showed a hint of sweetness: "I'm very happy to hear you say that."
"However, it's best if my family doesn't know about our relationship for now."
Li Mu asked, "Because of Uncle Jiang?"
Jiang Nansun nodded: "You know my dad's situation. He's obsessed with stocks now, and no one can stop him. He won't let go of any opportunity."
“In the past, when I took Zhang Anren to see him, the first thing I said to him was to persuade him to sell his house and give him the money to invest.”
“The situation was a little better back then, but it’s worse now. If he knew we were together and that you were financially well-off, the first thing he would do is ask you for money to invest in him and cover his losses. And he won’t stop there; he’ll keep going.”
“I’m scared. I’m scared that because of me, he’ll keep asking you for money and causing trouble for you. He’ll try to shift the blame for his wrongdoings onto you.”
"I'm terrified that because of me, I'll cause you a lot of trouble and distress. I'm afraid that one day you'll get tired of me, hate me, and want to leave me..."
As she spoke, she became somewhat emotional, and tears silently streamed down her face. Zhang Anren's matter had clearly affected her, prompting her to consider things more deeply.
Li Mu hugged her with some pity, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and gently comforted her, "No, don't worry, you will be happy for the rest of your life. I will not hate you, and I will never leave you."
Jiang Nansun's mood improved considerably. She hugged Li Mu tightly like an octopus and said gratefully, "Thank you, thank you for being so good to me."
"However, I cannot take advantage of your kindness and squander it, nor can I shift the responsibility of our family onto you."
"I'll reveal some details about our relationship to my mom, but I can't let my dad know anything. We brought this on ourselves, so we have to learn to take responsibility."
Li Mu nodded.
"Alright, I'll do whatever you say, my wife."
Nan Sun was finally satisfied.
He wasn't surprised that Jiang Nansun thought so far ahead and considered things so thoroughly. Jiang had received an excellent education from a young age, had a broad perspective, and possessed good learning abilities.
Such people may seem like flowers in a greenhouse, but they are actually quite talented. With a little experience, as long as they are not incompetent, they can shine with their own brilliance.
Nan Sun was this kind of person.
