    Chapter 41

    Mu Nanqiao did not reply to him immediately. It must have been an emergency because the president was asked to work overtime on the weekend afternoon, so Lu Qi was not in a hurry and took out his tablet to continue the unfinished drawing.

    About an hour later, Lu Qi stood up, stretched his waist, took his mobile phone and started moving.

    The place where he painted was in Mu Nanqiao's study. The landlord arranged a small corner for him, with a snack rack at hand. Looking up was Mu Nanqiao's desk, with a photo of the two of them taken in Red Square on the desk.

    Opposite the study is the fitness room, which contains several fitness equipment. The fishing sandbag is in the center. Lu Qi saw with satisfaction that the boxing gloves he bought for Mu Nanqiao were hanging on the wall.There are indeed no scratches, and I am quite obedient.

    Squeezing the soft meat on his belly, Lu Qi turned on the treadmill and jogged on it. Just at this time, Mu Nanqiao called.

    Lu Qi turned on the speakerphone, and the voice came out lazily: "Детка, do you have to pay rent for taking pictures of me?"

    Lu Qi was already used to his shamelessness, so he simply refused to answer his words and said while jogging: "I just went downstairs for a walk and met someone. She is Lin Yuan's sister-in-law."

    Mu Nanqiao hummed, "She also lives here? But given the current situation of the Lin family, she should move out soon."

    After all, Xingsheng Yunlan’s property fee alone is a huge sum.

    "She has moved away." Lu Qi began to breathe a little. He recounted today's conversation to Mu Nanqiao, and finally asked: "I just feel that she has changed so much and is a little pitiful."

    "My baby is kind-hearted." Mu Nanqiao laughed, and after a brief pause, he added, "But I definitely don't believe her when she reported that the bastard wished us happiness."

    "Ah?" Lu Qi was confused: "Then why did she lie?"

    "Hmm..." Mu Nanqiao thought for a while, "She also said that she was the wronged person, even your ex-boyfriend..."

    He chuckled, "She is actually pleading for Lin Yuan. She probably thinks that the more she downplays the relationship between you and him, the less hostile I will be towards Lin Yuan."

    It's a pity that Lin Xiaoshuang didn't know what Lin Yuan had done, and thought that the feud between him and Mu Nanqiao could only be summed up by jealousy.

    "So...huh...that's what it means..." Lu Qi panted and turned off the treadmill, wiping his sweat with a tissue, "I said she suddenly and inexplicably, it turns out she wanted to use my mouth to attack you.‌Please forgive me... Well, I didn’t hear it. Am I a little stupid..."

    "You're not used to thinking about this." Mu Nanqiao said, "It doesn't matter, I'll think about it for you."

    Some people are just not good at these twists and turns. Lu Qi did not take advantage of this. He took a glass of water, took a few sips, and asked again: "Is the meeting over? Is it going well?"

    His voice was clear and always had a youthful sound to it. As he listened to it, the corners of Mu Nanqiao's lips curled up unconsciously, and the irritability of arguing with the shareholders in the afternoon was suppressed a lot.

    "It's not bad..." He sighed and said in a drawl: "It's just that we have a party tonight, so I need to drink some wine, so I'll go back late."

    Lu Qi made a sound and said cheerfully: "Then I won't wait for you for dinner!"

    Mu Nanqiao suddenly felt uncomfortable, "Baby, didn't you really want me to go home every day?"

    "Ahem..." Lu Qi's tone could not hide his guilt, and he whispered: "Who told you that all you can think about lately is collecting rent..."

    "Kid, please be reasonable." Mu Nanqiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You were the one who flirted with me first this morning..."

    Lu Qi's ears turned red.

    He was the first to pay the rent in the morning, but that was because he hadn't seen Mun Nanqiao for several days. He really wanted to talk to the big fox, but in the end it was obvious that Mun Nanqiao was pushing the envelope. He was crying incessantly. Until now‌I still feel ashamed.

    Someone was talking to Mu Nanqiao on the other side of the phone, and it seemed to be Muchuan Bai. Lu Qi took the opportunity to say, "Then you are busy, I..."

    "Pick me up tonight." Mu Nanqiao said confidently, "I'm drunk and can't drive."

    Lu Qi: "...don't you have a driver?"

    "The driver has asked for leave, and the assistant has asked for leave." Mu Nanqiao glanced at Zhang Zhu, who made a zipper gesture to his mouth in an interesting way.

    "Then you take a taxi..." Lu Qi said, "Although I have a driver's license, I don't drive much..."

    Mu Nanqiao:......

    "Детка..." He sighed helplessly, "I just want to walk along the road with you."

    Lu Qi thought to himself that his boyfriend was really coquettish and clingy, but he chose the person himself and he was a hurt little pitiful person. What could he do?

    Get used to it.

    So he nodded and agreed and asked Mu Nanqiao to send the address later.

    …

    After hanging up the phone, the smile on Mu Nanqiao's lips was still there. Two dull knocks of "dong dong" finally brought him back to his senses.

    Muchuanbai knocked on the floor with his crutch to call his son's soul back.

    "Virtue." He sneered, "With a smile on his face, can he be a bit promising?"

    It's a pity that Mu Nanqiao's face is thicker than cowhide. Such a sarcastic comment is not painful to him at all. On the contrary, he understands the jealousy of his old father who is alone in the empty room.

    He felt sorry for his dad as he was unbearably lonely and had to deal with the old guys upstairs.

    Muchuanbai: "...how do you look at me?"

    "It's nothing." Mu Nanqiao shrugged and started talking about business, "Dad, those people upstairs have been living peacefully for half a year, and now they can no longer sit still. We have to find a way to get their shares back."

    When it came to business matters, the father and son still worked together. Muchuanbai nodded, took out his mobile phone and said: "I will recommend the business cards of a few people to you. You can contact them more. These people have an appointment with me tonight."The second generation ancestor you eat with is different, he is someone who is really useful..."

    But the second-generation ancestor also has a use. Most of the young people in the circle represent the will of the elders behind him, and Mu Nanqiao also has to deal with it.

    WeChat sent several people's business cards to Munanqiao. Muchuanbai found that Munanqiao had changed his avatar. It looked like St. Basil's Cathedral. There was a silhouette of Biye in the square. It should be a deer. He thoughtI zoomed in and took a look, and accidentally clicked twice in succession.

    [I patted "Nan Qiao" on the shoulder to remind him that it was time to collect the rent]

    Muchuanbai:???

    He raised his head and asked his son, "Which house did you rent out?"

    Mu Nanqiao's expression did not change. He stood up and straightened his tie. "That apartment is rented out. If it is empty, it will be empty."

    Muchuanbai:???

    So which one is it?

    …

    Tonight's banquet was a bit embarrassing after all. The young masters looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

    In the past, when everyone got together, Lin Yuan was good at having fun. Whether it was picking up girls in bars or finding a few men and women from outside to have a drink with them, they were pretty good at it. Now, Lin Yuan was directly involved by thunderous means. TheyAlthough these plastic brothers would not go against the Mu family for him, they were really unspeakably weak when facing Mu Nanqiao.

    This man sat across from him, with an air of "taking care of them like chopping melons and vegetables" all over his body, which made them feel awe in their hearts.

    But it’s not that no one talks to Mu Nanqiao. The educational resources of wealthy families are still very rich, and the people they educate are not all dandies. There are always one or two elites, two or three people who are talking to Mu Nanqiao.Nan Qiao talked about the recent biddings and tried to pry, but Mu Nanqiao dismissed them all with a sarcastic "I'm just out for fun, don't talk about work."

    It was time to "play", that is, to have a proper meal. The young masters who were playing with Lin Yuan wanted to cry without tears. Recalling such a pure meal, it was the last time they celebrated Children's Day..

    Fortunately, Mu Nanqiao didn't hold it, and everyone who went over to greet them was given a drink to honor them. After they completed their elders' tasks, they really went to eat obediently.

    At least everyone is happy on the surface.

    After three rounds of drinking, when the order was called, someone said that the graduation project was not finished yet and suggested to take a step forward, so everyone gave up and stood up one after another. Mu Nanqiao and the few who had been in contact with the family business early hadWe wanted to talk, so the younger ones came down first.

    "I'm so ridiculous, hahahahaha..." After leaving the hotel, the group of people laughed loudly and booed one after another: "Gao Laoer, how can you even name Bi She? You can read it yourselfDo you know what the full professional name is?"

    "Go away!" The person being teased yelled angrily: "You dare not say anything. The dice rolled in the WeChat group and got me out. What can I say?! That Munanqiao is not much older than me.Hey, it’s weird! When he sits there, he looks just like my dad! I’ve never seen my own dad so honest!”

    "Grass, no one is afraid of him." Someone cursed in a low voice, "Grass has grown on the grave of Murray. Lin Yuan has entered. His methods are very powerful..."

    A group of people walked to the parking lot, and someone whispered: "Damn, luckily I'm a few years younger than them, so I didn't get involved in these things... Huh? Brother Gao, look at that little boy riding a motorcycle on the roadside.There's something about that waist, legs, and hips..."

    When everyone heard this, they subconsciously looked in the direction he was pointing. The straight man laughed out loud: "Damn, your fag radar went off again..."

    But at first glance, to be fair, he is indeed a tall and handsome young man. The motorcycle is black and red. He is wearing casual clothes and a white jacket. His long legs are propped on the ground and he is texting with his head lowered. From this angleLooking over, the face was unexpectedly clean, with a small dimple on the cheek, exuding a well-behaved look.

    "Damn, sweet and spicy..." someone murmured.

    This contrast made people's hearts itch. Under the influence of alcohol, several people started to stir up. One of them uttered an ouch and said in a low voice: "I know this little boy. Lin Yuan has done it for me. He has a stubborn streak. As far as I knowHe was still a baby, and Young Master Lin didn’t even eat anyone until he went in.”

    Someone asked: "Didn't Lin Yuan like to find a substitute for... well, that person before? I don't think this looks like it..."

    Everyone fell silent, feeling that Lin Yuan was somewhat blind.

    "No matter, I'll take this one. I'll try to see if I can get it..." Young Master Gao, who said he didn't hand in the final exam, cleared his throat and strode over. He thought he was being suave and squeezed the young man.Make a bubble sound: "Friend, have we met somewhere?"

    The other party was finally willing to raise his head and glance at him.

    He had a pair of round eyes, like a deer, with a lingering youthful air. The flickering light fell on his eyes, like a clear forest stream reflecting the rays of the sun.

    Looking at this face up close, Master Gao almost couldn't stand upright with excitement. Some starlets are pretty, but they are all wearing makeup and filters, but the face of the person in front of him is clean and cold white.The skin is like delicate white porcelain.

    Young Master Gao licked his lips and continued to say in a bubble voice: "Oh, I remembered, you have been with Lin Yuan, right? Now that he has gone in, you have no support, so why not follow me? At least I won't.Let you be a substitute..."

    "Oh." The young man nodded, with a smile in his eyes, and looked behind Master Gao slyly, "You also know that I am a stand-in. This is not up to par. Why don't you go?Where is the right lord?"

    Young Master Gao thought that the little beauty was talking to him, and he was so happy that he couldn't find the north. When he heard him mention the real master, he suddenly trembled, but he couldn't show his cowardice at this moment, so he said something without confidence.: "This... this main character, although he has a good-looking face, he has a double-door figure... this... I like the petite one..."

    After he finished speaking, the little beauty already laughed and leaned down, laughing and saying: "Mu Nanqiao, did you hear that people think you are a King Kong Barbie, hahaha..."

    Young Master Gao's hair stood on end. He forced himself to look back and almost became frightened and became incontinent on the spot.

    Mr. Mu stood behind him with an unpredictable expression, his face as gloomy as a cumulonimbus cloud, and asked him expressionlessly: "You want to keep me?"

    "Hahahahaha..." Lu Qi smiled with tears falling down.
