Chapter 273: Seeing but Not Exposing (2)

Li Meng immediately retorted, “Bad enough, my ass! If it’s bad for anyone, it’s for me!”

“I thought about it more and found that suitor would probably be more suitable. In any case, are you coming over or not?” Mu Huan asked.

“Of course I am! Why wouldn’t I? I’d be a fool to miss good food!”

“Fine. Well then, I’ll leave you two to it, I’m going back to my room.” Mu Huan picked up her belongings and got ready to go.

Li Meng waved at Mu Huan without even bothering to look up. She was more concerned with eating some of the food before Wu Xingye turned up.

After Mu Huan left, Li Meng suddenly thought as she ate that when Wu Xingye turns up later… there would be only the two of them… in the middle of the night… in a room…

Instantly, she felt hot and bothered.

Her face reddened!

Bao Junyan was just heading for a shower when Mu Huan returned to the room.

She sighed the moment she got in. “Aye, indeed, plans can never keep up with the changes.”

“What happened?”

“Wu Xingye is wooing Xiao Meng and has just turned up, knowing that we are here on a trip. He’s even staying in Express Inn just opposite. He insisted on joining us tomorrow. But he’s obviously here because of Xiao Meng, and if I stuck around with them, I’d just be playing gooseberry and that would be awkward!”

She did not wait for Bao Junyan to respond but walked up to him immediately and put her arms around his, saying, “Hubby, are you busy tomorrow? May I tag along? Otherwise, I’d be bored alone.”

She wanted to be with Bao Junyan, chiefly because of what had happened today. Although she probably would be of no real help to him, now that his life was in danger and the enemy seemed to have a good understanding of him, she felt that this was too dangerous!

If she were by his side at a critical time, perhaps there might be a chance for her to do something.

Bao Junyan looked at her, his expression deepening as he replied, “I’m not busy.”

“That’s great! Hubby, you’re the best!” Mu Huan said sweetly.

Bao Junyan smiled and kept silent.

He did not ask much, to Mu Huan’s relief. After all, the more she said to him, the more likely it would be that she’d give herself away.

Noticing that she had so obviously relaxed, Bao Junyan looked at her with deep fondness.

He was a savvy person who could always tell when Mu Huan was trying to hide something from him. But he would act as though he knew nothing and would not expose her or pursue the matter.

Everyone has their own little secrets.

He trusted her character.

Today, for example; she obviously did not want him to know that she was at the club, but when she saw that he was in danger, she had dashed out without a second thought to warn him.

In the process, she had exposed what she wanted to conceal.

This was good enough for him.

Suddenly, Mu Huan felt herself being lifted off her feet.

Mu Huan: “…”

This man!

The next day, Bao Junyan asked her where she’d like to go, for he didn’t have to work all day.

Mu Huan had thought that he’d have at least a thing or two on his schedule and had not expected him to have kept the day clear to spend with her. She was elated as all the possibilities flashed through her mind.

But when she suddenly thought of what had happened yesterday, she said, “Let’s not go out.”

It was crowded and busy outside, it was too risky!

“What’s the matter?” She was so excited just a second ago, and now she had suddenly become subdued.

“Someone’s after your life…” Mu Huan felt that he didn’t really care that much about his own life. Someone had sabotaged his car yesterday, and he had been this close to getting into an accident, but he seemed nonchalant!
