Su Ruowan was stunned for a moment. Then she followed him inside with Jiu Jiu in her arms.

“Mr. Li, I’m sorry. Our house is too small. Please take a seat.” Su Ruowan was a little embarrassed. This house had a floor area of forty square meters. She and Jiu Jiu felt that it was big and spacious enough. But when a man came in, why did the air seem to have become thin all of a sudden?

She couldn’t find any tea in the cupboard, so she ended up pouring warm water in a disposable paper cup and handed it to Li Muchcn. “Mr. Li, I’m so sorry, I don’t have any tea left. Please have some water.”

Li Muchen was sitting on the single sofa in the room. Its arms were already broken. He gracefully held the paper cup, showing great finesse.

Su Ruowan turned the TV on to have some noise in the room. It helped lessen the embarrassment she felt.

After drinking two mouthfuls of water, Li Muchen looked around the entire room and put the paper cup on the table. He stood up and said, “Miss Su, I have to go. Yan Yan is waiting for me in the car.”

“Oh, all right. Goodbye, Mr. Li.” Su Ruowan stood up to sec him out.

When Li Muchcn stepped out of the door, he suddenly stopped. She didn’t see it coming, so she almost bumped into his back.

Then he turned around. And the bright smile in his eyes made her blush.

“Jiu Jiu, sec you tomorrow.” He stretched out his hand and waved at Jiu Jiu, who was sitting at the edge of the bed.

Jiu Jiu said sweetly, “Goodbye, Uncle Handsome!” It was only then that Li Muchen turned around and walked away.

Seeing him enter the elevator, Su Ruowan took a deep breath, went back inside, and closed the door.

She and Li Muchcn had met a few times before, but he didn’t talk much. He even looked a little unapproachable. But today… It seemed that he had become a different person.

The next day was Jiu Jiu’s birthday.

Su Ruowan quickly cleaned up Li Muchen’s villa. Then she went upstairs and gently knocked on the door of the study.

The door opened. Li Muchen stood there with a cigarette in his mouth. He had unfastened a few buttons of his black shirt and rolled up its sleeves. He leaned against the doorpost, looked at her with his seductive eyes, and asked, “What’s up?”

She lowered her head and replied, “Mr. Li… Today is Jiu Jiu’s birthday. A few days ago, I invited Yan Yan to celebrate with us. So…”

Li Muchen walked out of the study, closed the door, and went downstairs. “Yan Yan, change your clothes. We’re going to Jiu Jiu’s birthday party.”

“Yay!” the two children shouted excitedly.

Su Ruowan was a little stunned. She couldn’t keep up with Li Muchen’s behavior. Besides, did she also invite him?

Su Ruowan hurriedly called Wu Lili and asked for help. Fortunately, Wu Lili was efficient enough to make a reservation at the restaurant for her.

When Su Ruowan saw the address that Wu Lili sent to her, she felt like her heart bled. Wu Lili had actually booked a high-end tea restaurant nearby.

Wu Lili also sent her a message on WeChat, “Your guests are the dignified Li Muchen of Jing Yang Group and his son. You can’t be too shabby in treating them to a meal. Otherwise, you can’t get such a good man.”

“Mr. Li, what do you want to eat?” Su Ruowan asked as she put the menu in front of Li Muchcn.

She and Jiu Jiu sat side by side while Li Muchen and Jing Yanxi sat opposite them. From a distance, people who didn’t know them might think that they were a family of four.

Li Muchen took the menu and ordered two of Jing Yanxi’s favorite dishes. Then he asked for Su Ruowan’s and Jiu Jiu’s orders and called the waiter.

Su Ruowan stood up, took the kettle, and cleaned the tableware. Then she poured the juice into everyone’s glass before she sat again.

Resting his elbow on the table with his chin on his palm, Li Muchen watched her every move. His dark eyes were quiet and deep.

“Dad, I want to go to the bathroom,” Jing Yanxi suddenly shouted and slid off the chair.

“Mommy, me too,” Jiu Jiu said, looking at Su Ruowan with flushed cheeks.

Su Ruowan stood up and was about to take the two children to the bathroom. However, Li Muchen stopped her and said with a smile, “Don’t worry. It’s very safe here.”

After the two children left, Su Ruowan sat opposite Li Muchen, not knowing what to say for a while. She felt like they were in an awkward situation. “Su Ruowan!”

She raised her head and saw a group of women coming in. One of them was Fang Yansha.

“It’s you again,” Fang Yansha snorted with a trace of disgust in her eyes. Why was D City so small? She had to run into this jinx again in just a few days.

Su Ruowan stood up. Remembering their last encounter, she said, “Mrs. Helian…”

“Wow! Have you found a rich old man again? You’re not even calling me ‘Aunt’ now,” Fang Yansha replied sardonically. The per capita consumption of this tea restaurant was not low. People who came here to dine were usually rich. Su Ruowan must have hooked up with a rich man.

Su Ruowan’s face stiffened. She glanced at Li Muchcn. His elegant and noble appearance didn’t really match those dirty words.

Curiosity was written all over the other women’s faces. When they asked about Su Ruowan’s identity, Fang Yansha cast a resentful glance at Su Ruowan and replied, “Well, ladies, let me introduce her to you. This woman was A Xun’s girlfriend in college. But later on, she ran away with a rich old man, thinking that A Xun didn’t have inheritance rights because he has an elder brother.” Su Ruowan’s face turned deathly pale. She didn’t expect Fang Yansha to have such a deep prejudice against her. Seeing the contemptuous and disdainful look on the other women’s faces, she clenched her fists and frowned deeply.

Li Muchen picked up the glass of juice and took a sip as if he didn’t hear anything around him.

Fang Yansha also noticed that he was unmoved. It seemed that he was trying to stay out of the matter. It made her more confident and fearless. She was sure that Su Ruowan would not be able to refute her, so she continued, “Later, the old man got tired of her and dumped her. It was still A Xun who bought her plane ticket so she could go home. I thought I could finally be quiet after sending this plague away. But I didn’t expect that she would bring a bastard back to D City in less than a year and pester my another son all the time.” “What? She seduced your two sons? That’s unbelievable!”

“Yes, because she looks so pure.”

“Those rich old men like women who look pure.

Such a coquette!”

The women began to discuss with each other. Their voices were loud enough for the other customers around to hear them clearly. Thus, they all cast their eyes on Su Ruowan. Some were curious, others were guessing, but most of them looked contemptuous..
