Nanaâs smile froze at once,
She did not know li Hanchenâs true identity, but from her fatherâs warm attitude towards li Hanchen, she knew that li Hanchen was not a simple man.
âMr. Li, what do you mean by this?â Nanaâs mouth twitched.âIs there a need to do this? Did this woman say something to you?â
At the thought of this, Nana immediately understood. She glared at Mu Sheng.âI didnât hire you because youâre not capable enough. Youâre slandering me like this. It seems that my decision was right. You ...â
Before Nana could finish her sentence, Mu Sheng suddenly looked up at her. His eyes were so cold that Nana forgot what she wanted to say.
Mu Sheng glanced at the waiter.âWeâre going to eat. Can you clean up the restaurant?â
The waiter looked at li Hanchen, then at Nana. He felt that in this battle of jealousy between two women for a man, the fashionably dressed woman beside him had clearly lost completely.
He opened his mouth and was prepared to persuade Nana to stop in time. However, before he could say anything, Nana had already left angrily. Before she left, the H bag hanging on her arm even scratched him fiercely.
The waiter felt bitter inside. Who did he offend? however, he could only force a smile and say,âthe dishes will be served soon. Please wait a moment.â
After the waiter left, Mu Sheng looked up and saw li Hanchenâs meaningful gaze.
âWhy are you looking at me?â
Li Hanchen covered the smile on his face and coughed lightly.âItâs just that this is the first time I feel that youâre quite interesting when youâre angry.â
â........âMu Sheng glanced at him coldly.âYouâre the one who invited him.â
Li Hanchen looked into Mu Shengâs eyes. There was a smile on his face, but his deep eyes were so serious that it was frightening.âIâve only met her once. Today is the second time Iâve seen her. Thereâs no relationship between us.â
For no reason, Mu Sheng felt a little unhappy just now, but now he felt much better.
She snorted.âWhat does it have to do with me?â
Li Hanchen leaned forward slightly and looked into Mu Shengâs eyes.âIs it really okay?â
Mu Sheng avoided li Hanchenâs gaze.âIâm hungry.â
Li Hanchen did not ask any more questions and sat back down with a smile.
Very quickly, the waiter served the dishes.
The dishes here were different from those in China, but they were still novel. Mu Sheng was quite satisfied with the food.
The foie gras was wrapped in a thick sauce. Mu Sheng took a sip and the foie gras melted in his mouth.
Li Hanchen, who was sitting opposite him, glanced at Mu Sheng. He suddenly reached out and pointed at the right corner of his lips.
Mu Sheng looked at him in confusion.âWhatâs wrong?â
Li Hanchen stood up and approached Mu Sheng. He took a handkerchief and gently wiped Mu Shengâs face.
Mu Sheng raised her head and watched li Hanchen wipe her mouth. She did not know why, but her mouth suddenly felt a little dry, so she subconsciously stretched out the tip of her tongue and swept it over her lips.
â.......âLi Hanchen only saw a small patch of pink. He suddenly stopped holding the handkerchief and gritted his teeth.âDonât move.â
âI didnât move.â Mu Sheng was innocent. She had just sat there and did not even move her hand.
â..........âLi Hanchen took a deep breath and placed the handkerchief in Mu Shengâs hand.âWipe it yourself.â
Mu Sheng held the handkerchief and looked at li Hanchen in confusion.âWhatâs wrong with you again?â
She felt that li Hanchen was not angry, but his mood was not right.
When li Hanchen returned to his seat, he laughed first.âNothing, I just think youâre stupid.â
âããããâMu Sheng threw the handkerchief back to li Hanchen.âYouâre the stupid one.â
Li Hanchen caught the handkerchief and smiled.âItâs done. Hurry up and eat.â
Mu Sheng looked at the steak in front of li Hanchen and was still brooding over what li Hanchen had just said.
She stretched out her fork and knife and placed the piece that li Hanchen had just cut on her side.
When li Hanchenâs deep eyes looked over, Mu Sheng took a bite of the steak and chewed slowly.
Li Hanchen wanted to laugh at Mu Shengâs childish act of revenge.
Finally, he couldnât hold back his laughter. He put the knife and fork aside and focused on watching Mu Sheng eat the steak.
Mu Sheng had wanted to take revenge on li Hanchen for calling her stupid, but now that li Hanchen was staring at her like that, Mu Sheng felt a little uncomfortable.
âWhat are you looking at me for? Why arenât you eating?â
âIâm watching you eat. â As li Hanchen spoke, he picked up a knife and fork and cut the steak in front of him into small pieces. Then, he placed them all in front of Mu Sheng.âYou donât have to fight with me. You can have them all.â
In the end, Mu Sheng left the restaurant after eating too much.
She did not have the habit of wasting food, and Li Hanchen did not eat. It was as if looking at her would fill her stomach more than eating.
Mu Sheng had no choice but to finish everything that li Hanchen had not finished.
It was only when they were about to leave the house that Mu Sheng looked at li Hanchen with a little resentment.âI ate too much.â
The smile in li Hanchenâs eyes had not disappeared. When he heard Mu Shengâs words, the corners of his lips lifted again.âYou snatched it yourself.â
Mu Sheng felt that li Hanchen was getting more and more out of hand recently.âWhy are you so bad?â
Li Hanchenâs smile widened and he sighed slightly.âIs there anyone who bullies others like you? You snatched my food and now youâre saying Iâm bad?â
â.......âMu Sheng had never been forced to the point where he could not speak, but this was already the umpteenth time li Hanchen had done so.
She had nothing to refute, because li Hanchenâs logic was unusually rigorous, and he was always reasonable.
Li Hanchen stood beside the car with a smile on his face as he observed Mu Shengâs expression.
Mu Shengâs personality was originally very cold, but li Hanchen liked to break this layer of estrangement on her surface and then look at her various expressions.
Whether it was conflict, anger, or happiness, those unique traits that had never been shown to outsiders made li Hanchenâs heart flutter.
The two of them stood there quietly for a while. Li Hanchen was waiting for Mu Sheng to get angry, but Mu Sheng did not say a word.
âYou!â Li Hanchen finally could not help but start a conversation with Mu Sheng.
However, just as li Hanchen said a word, Mu Sheng interrupted him.âPut your hand out, palm up.â
Li Hanchen followed Mu Shengâs instructions with his palm facing up.
The next second, Mu Sheng also reached out and patted li Hanchenâs palm twice.
He had to admit that the force was quite heavy and it hurt a little, but to li Hanchen, it was like a tickle.
Li Hanchen felt that it was even funnier. He pulled Mu Shengâs hand over, and Mu Shengâs palm was already red.
Li Hanchen laughed and felt sorry for her.âAre you stupid? you hit me, but youâll still hurt yourself.â
Mu Sheng pulled her hand back. Of course, she knew that the effect of strength was mutual.
However, li Hanchen was still sick and she did not dare to do anything to him in other places. She could only hit his palm to vent her anger.
Li Hanchen reached out to stroke Mu Shengâs head, but Mu Sheng dodged him.
Li Hanchen shook his head helplessly. When Mu Sheng was angry, he would not let him get close.
âAre we going back?â Li Hanchen looked at Mu Sheng.âDo you still want to go out for a walk?â
Mu Sheng had never been to the Hao nation before, so she naturally wanted to go out and have a look. She nodded.âIâm going out for a while, I wonât bring you.â
âAlright,â he said. Li Hanchen raised his eyebrows and looked at the car in front of him.âThis car is mine.â
â........â
Li Hanchen took out his wallet and counted it again.âYou didnât bring your wallet when you left this morning, did you? He probably doesnât have any money on him now. â
âLi Hanchen, you were the one who told me that you brought your wallet this morning and asked me to put it back.â
Li Hanchen held back his laughter.âAlso, let me give you a friendly reminder. The nearest bus stop is five kilometers away.â
â........âMu Sheng took a deep breath, then pulled open the car door and sat inside. After a while, she rolled down the window and looked at li Hanchen, who was still standing at the side.âArenât you going to drive??â
Li Hanchen finally moved. He went around to the other side and sat in the driverâs seat.
After closing the car door, li Hanchen turned to look at Mu Sheng.
She was leaning against the car window and sulking. Her seat belt had fastened on its own.
Usually, when li Hanchen was around, Mu Sheng would consciously wait for li Hanchen to help her fasten her seat belt.
Li Hanchen took out two candies from his pocket and handed them to Mu Sheng.âThis is a new product. Do you want to try it?â
Mu Sheng glanced at it and turned his head away.
Li Hanchen unwrapped the wrapper and handed the milk candy to Mu Sheng.âEat it.â
âIâm not eating. â
Alright, she did not even want the milk candy anymore. Li Hanchen knew that Mu Sheng was really angry this time. He put the candy in his mouth.âOkay, Iâll eat it for you.â
Mu Sheng did not speak to li Hanchen along the way.
After about an hour, li Hanchen drove Mu Sheng to a Castle in the suburbs.
The castle was well taken care of, with flowers everywhere.
At the entrance of the castle, servants in exquisite uniforms were waiting by the roadside. When they saw li Hanchenâs car coming, they bowed respectfully.
Li Hanchen brought Mu Sheng into the castle. As he led her in, he said,
Mu Sheng only listened and did not answer his question.
Li Hanchen, a man of few words in front of others, was able to keep talking to himself in front of Mu Sheng, even when Mu Sheng ignored him.
When they were going up the stairs, they turned a corner. The stairs were a little high and Li Hanchen was turning back to talk to Mu Sheng. He did not pay attention and missed his step.
Mu Sheng quickly went over to help him, but li Hanchen covered his chest.âI think Iâm sick. My heart hurts.â
A trace of anxiety flashed in Mu Shengâs eyes, and he pulled li Hanchenâs wrist to help him check on his illness.
However, the moment she reached out, li Hanchen grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Mu Sheng pushed him twice.âWhat are you doing?â
Li Hanchen took out all the candies from his pocket and placed them in Mu Shengâs hand.âIâll give them all to you. Donât be angry anymore, okay?â
Looking into li Hanchenâs dark eyes, Mu Sheng snorted.âThen donât keep making me angry.â
Li Hanchen smiled.âIâm just teasing you. Youâre the smartest in my heart.â
Mu Sheng glanced at li Hanchen and saw that he was serious. He struggled awkwardly.âReally?â
âYes.â Li Hanchen pinched Mu Shengâs face.âOf all the people Iâve met, youâre the smartest. Iâm not as smart as you.â
Mu Sheng knew that li Hanchen was talking nonsense again, but he could not deny that li Hanchenâs nonsense made Mu Sheng feel a little happy.
âThen let me go first.â Mu Sheng pushed li Hanchen again. âI want to get up.â
Li Hanchen finally let go of Mu Sheng.âI heard that you liked this kind of building. This is the oldest Castle in the Hao nation. Iâll give it to you.â
Before Mu Sheng could stand still, he was hit by such a big piece of news.
Mu Sheng looked around and did some calculations based on her understanding of the prices of the Hao nationâs castles.
âNo, itâs too expensive.â Mu Shengâs mathematics was excellent, but she was still confused by the house price with countless zeros.
âAlright,â he said. Li Hanchen did not say anything more and continued to lead Mu Sheng upstairs.
At this moment, Mu Sheng had no idea that this castle was under Mu Shengâs name when it was bought.
In the Hao nation, Mu Sheng and Li Hanchen were touring the castle.
In the country, it had long been blown up because of Mu Shengâs matter.
This was because a marketing account that specialized in music had accidentally spotted two familiar names while browsing a foreign music website.
After a few minutes of browsing, he quickly posted the screenshot on the internet. Then, the screenshot went viral.
This was the list of participants for the World Piano Competition. Two names were circled in bold red,
âF * ck! I canât believe my eyes, do you know what I saw when I was browsing the International Piano Competition? I was not surprised to see Mu Yingâs name. After all, she was a professional.
âBut thereâs another personâs name. It really shocked me. I thought that they had the same name, so I went to check with the organizers of the competition. They confirmed that this Mu Sheng is the MU Sheng we know.â
The music blogger was very considerate and explained the level of the World Piano Competition and what it represented,n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hence, the netizens exploded.
[Really??] Was Mu Sheng crazy? [Is she participating in this to embarrass China?]
[Is Mu Sheng poisonous? does she have to do whatever our Xiaoxiao does?] Do you know how long the cloned sheep Dolly has lived? After living for six years, does Mu Sheng also want to become the dory of the human world?
[I remember when Mu Sheng was in the bunny girl group, her singing and dancing were the worst. How could she possibly know how to play the piano? itâs so fake.]
While the internet was abuzz with discussion, in the MU family villa, Mu Ying panicked when she saw the news on Weibo.
She went to the official website to search for the shortlisted list of the World Piano Competition and actually saw Mu Shengâs name.
Could Mu Sheng have discovered something? She did it on purpose?
Mu Xiao clutched her phone tightly. Last night, Ouyang he had just spoken to her on the phone and told her to prepare well. His words were full of trust and encouragement.
If Mu Sheng were to participate in the competition, wouldnât everything be ruined?
