Chapter 168 - 168 First Time at the Mu Family
168 First Time at the Mu Family
“Forget it. If you don’t cause trouble for me, I’ll be absolutely safe.”
Wei Yuan thought for a moment and reminded Mu Ran, “Don’t offend President Lu because of Lin Yin. Take it that Brother Wei is begging you. Lu Ming is not an easy person to talk to.”
Mu Ran did not refute Wei Yuan on the surface, but he did not think so in his heart. Lu Ming was not to be trifled with, and the Mu family was not to be trifled with as well.
“Actually, I think President Lu and Miss Lin Yin are quite compatible. One is handsome and carefree with a successful career, and the other is smart, beautiful, and elegant. If they can be together, their future children will not be inferior in terms of looks and ability.”
Wei Yuan noticed Mu Ran’s darkening face and stopped talking.
Anyway, Wei Yuan did not want Mu Ran to be with Lin Yin. He felt that Mu Ran had already diverted a lot of attention because of Lin Yin. If he really got together with Lin Yin in the future, Mu Ran would have to leave the entertainment industry.
Mu Ran did not notice Wei Yuan’s thoughts. He felt that Lin Yin should be arriving at the Mu family soon and called Mu Xiao.
“What happened?”
Mu Xiao’s lazy voice sounded on the phone.
“Second Brother, Lin Yin will help me go home to get something later. Are you at home now?”
Hearing Mu Ran’s words, Mu Xiao sat up from the sofa and sobered up. “Sure, Little Ran, you’re progressing quite quickly. Second Brother supports you mentally. Strive to trick the little girl home as soon as possible.”
Although Mu Ran was used to Second Brother’s style of doing things, he still reminded him worriedly, “Second Brother, I’ve said that Lin Yin and I don’t have the kind of relationship you think we do. Don’t talk nonsense later. Don’t scare her.”
Mu Xiao smiled and got up to walk towards Mu Ran’s bedroom on the second floor. “What did you ask the little girl to get for you?”
“Oh, it’s a small pendant in my drawer. It’s an amulet I bought with my classmates in the past. It’s actually useless.”
“Then why did you bother the little girl to come and get it?” Mu Xiao walked into Mu Ran’s bedroom and indeed saw an amulet-shaped pendant in the table drawer.
“It’s all because you scared me, Second Brother! Lu Ming has been pestering Lin Yin recently. If I don’t trick her into coming to the production team, who knows if Lu Ming will still look for her?” Mu Ran was really worried that Lu Ming would do something to Lin Yin. Lin Yin was still young, and Mu Ran was afraid that she would be tricked by Lu Ming.
The smile on Mu Xiao’s face became even more obvious. He did not expect his silly brother to be so smart.
“Okay, don’t worry. I’ll wait for her at home. Just focus on filming.”
Mu Ran kept feeling that Mu Xiao’s tone was wrong. Ever since he could remember, Mu Xiao had been the one with the evilest ideas among the three brothers.
Her eldest brother, Mu Heng, was very mature and treated Mu Ran very well. He was very modest in everything he did. However, Mu Xiao was different. Although he looked calm, he had actually done many overboard things. Mu Ran had suffered a lot from Mu Xiao.
Mu Xiao had been the best-looking among the three of them since he was young. Coupled with his extraordinary intelligence, he was almost a perfect child in everyone’s eyes.
However, Mu Ran knew how many girls Mu Xiao made cry. He spoke directly and was cold. Almost everyone who confessed to him ran away after he made them cry. He did not know what kind of girl could win Mu Xiao over.
“Second Brother, don’t do anything unnecessary!” Mu Ran reminded worriedly.
Mu Xiao was writing something on Mu Ran’s table. Hearing his words, Mu Xiao paused and put down the pen in his hand. He said to Mu Ran on the phone, “Don’t worry, I won’t.”
After hanging up the phone with Mu Ran, Mu Xiao placed the note he had just written on Mu Ran’s amulet.
“This kid knows me quite well.” Mu Xiao looked at the obvious note on the amulet and closed the drawer in satisfaction.
When Lin Yin arrived at the Mu residence, Mu Xiao was waiting for her in the hall on the first floor.
“Brother Mu Xiao,” Lin Yin greeted Mu Xiao politely. Looking at the man in casual clothes in front of her, Lin Yin sincerely felt that he was good-looking. “Brother Mu Ran asked me to come and get something.”
“Sister Little Yin is here. Come in quickly.” Mu Xiao led Lin Yin into the house enthusiastically and brought her to Mu Ran’s bedroom on the second floor.
“This is Little Ran’s room. You can go in and get it yourself.” Mu Xiao stood at the door with a smile.
Afraid of delaying Mu Ran’s filming, Lin Yin walked in and opened the drawer beside the bed according to Mu Ran’s instructions.
Before Lin Yin could search for it, her gaze was attracted by a small note with words written on it.
“Little Yin, I really like you. Can you be my girlfriend?—Mu Ran.”
Lin Yin read the words on the note softly and was a little stunned. Looking at the two small hearts drawn beside the words, Lin Yin’s eyelids twitched.
