Mu Lingshi reached home with an apprehensive heart. She only relaxed slightly when she saw Ah Mo in the living room.
Whats wrong? Why do you look so down? Ah Mo came up to her and quickly noticed that something was not right. Are you not feeling well?
Mu Lingshi shook her head as she put her sunglasses on the coffee table before sitting down on the sofa. Ah Mo quickly brought her a glass of water.
She finished it and gave the glass back to him, hesitating for a moment before admitting, Ah Mo, I noticed that someone was following me on the way back, and Ive been having a feeling that someone was watching me in the dark for the past few days. I feel a little uneasy about it. Is something happening? Who are they?
Ah Mo was stunned to hear this news from Mu Lingshi. His eyes and expression darkened, and he instantly remembered Mu Yuchens reminder.
He had been too busy and had totally forgotten about it, so he did not talk about it. That was why
Hey, whats wrong? Why do you have such a serious expression? Do you know who they are? I just find it strange. A lot of things have been weird lately. Why would the pen that Brother auctioned be returned to me? I sent it to Brother and he said it was the exact same one he auctioned off. For some reason, I can feel something coming and I dont feel good about it, Mu Lingshi voiced out her worries to Ah Mo.
He looked downwards and thought about what to say before he grabbed her shoulder and asked urgently, Then, how did you escape them?
I turned around and wanted to find out who they were, but it seemed like they didnt want me to know. They fled quickly the moment I turned around, but I still find this very strange. It didnt seem like they were going to harm me, Mu Lingshi recalled.
Master wanted to hire an agile bodyguard for you. Im sure he knows somethings up. Maybe you should stay home for the time being. Ill get you a strong personal bodyguard.
A personal bodyguard? Did something happen? Mu Lingshi was on alert as she looked at Ah Mo, waiting for an answer.
Ah Mo glanced at her. We can never be too careful. With you frequenting the night club all year long, its nice to have someone beside you. Ill investigate what happened tonight. I just made supper. Let me go get some for you. He got up from the sofa and went to the kitchen.
Mu Lingshis eyes narrowed at Ah Mo who entered the kitchen. She had a lot of doubts and she could sense that Ah Mo was hiding something from her, or else he would not have avoided her gaze. Furthermore, his eyes seemed odd just now.
However, Mu Lingshi did not ask anymore. She knew him way too well and would never be able to get him to talk if he did not want to.
Mu Lingshi was sitting by the dining table when he came out with supper.
Some time ago, when Brother came over, he asked me when were getting married. What do you think? Mu Lingshi threw him a sudden question.
Because they were so used to each other, she was extremely straightforward with him.
Ah Mo was obviously shaken up slightly, and there was visible hope in his eyes when he looked at her, but he suppressed his feelings and said, Ill leave it up to you. Ill wait until youre ready.
Mu Lingshi wasa little startled by his reply as well. After some hesitation, she said, Youre going to wait? What if Im never ready?
Ill keep waiting then. I dont think marriage makes a lot of difference to us now anyway. Ah Mo gave his honest reply. For some reason, his handsome face blushed, and he was avoiding Mu Lingshis gaze.
Stunned, Mu Lingshi studied his blushing face for a while before bursting into laughter. Mu Lingmo, has anyone ever told you that youre really bad at smooth-talking girls?
Well, I dont really have that much experience he quickly explained, his face turning even redder as he looked at her smile. Then, he stood up. Ill go and prepare the bathwater for you.
Stop right there! Sit down! Mu Lingshi gave her orders.
Ah Mo glanced at her uneasily as he sat back down. She quickly finished the bowl of porridge before grabbing a tissue to clean her mouth. She then looked at him. I want to talk about us tonight.
Us
He clenched his hands and stared straight into her eyes.
Mu Lingshi lowered her eyes and took a deep breath. Its been twenty over years. Thank you for always looking after me. Apart from Brother, youre the most respected and trusted person I have ever known. At the same time, Im glad that you love me. I was very surprised when you first confessed to me since weve been like this for many years, and
Lingshi, actually it happened way before I confessed to you. When I was adopted by Grandfather from the orphanage, you were the first person to accept me genuinely with a smile. From that moment on, I made a promise to myself that I would protect you forever, Ah Mo spoke up before Mu Lingshi could finish her sentence.
Mu Lingshi smiled. Thank you, but I think I want to end our current relationship
