Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mu Anan looked at the Seventh Master obediently, her eyes filled with anticipation.
It was like a child asking his parents for pocket money.
She was very careful and looked forward to it.
Under such a gaze, the Seventh Master could not withstand it at all.
“Sure.” He agreed readily.
There had been a lot of things to do recently, so it was not a bad choice to let the girl go for a walk.
“Really?” Mu Anan was surprised.
She was still thinking that the Seventh Master wouldn’t agree so easily. She had to take advantage of the allergic reaction and act pitifully.
In the end, before she could even brew up her emotions, he agreed…
“What? 1 don’t agree. What do you want?” Zong Zhengyu could see through Mu Anan’s thoughts at a glance.
Mu Anan lowered her head and rubbed her nose thoughtfully before she chuckled again.
“Then I’ll call Jiang Zhen.” Mu Anan quickly changed the topic and pointed at the phone in the cabinet beside the bed. “Seventh Master, help me get my phone.”
“What’s the hurry? Inform him tomorrow.” Although Seventh Master sounded heartless, he still reached out to help Mu Anan get the phone.
Mu Anan pouted. “I’ve given Jiang Zhen a hard time today. Be more positive and show more enthusiasm. Otherwise, my scumbag father won’t treat me like a little white rabbit anymore.”
“You even dissed him?” Zong Zhengyu raised his eyebrows.
Mu Anan was about to explain, but when she saw the Seventh Master’s expression, she immediately asked, “Seventh Master! Is there a problem with me dissing him?”
“I thought you wanted to continue your father-daughter relationship.” Seventh Master ridiculed mercilessly.
Mu Anan was stunned for a moment before she laughed silently.
She loved people like Seventh Master, who would retort from time to time.
Everyone said that the seventh master was cold and ruthless, like the living King of Hell, and extremely dangerous.
Only she knew that her seventh master was very gentle. He would also act like a teenager and be childish.
He was super cute.
Mu Anan then said, “He said that he was talking about my mother. 1 asked him if he felt guilty, but he came over and pretended to be affectionate. He said that he only loved my mother and that he had made a mistake that all men would make. Please, the last time I saw this sentence, it was because of a certain celebrity.”
Mu Anan searched for Jiang Zhen’s number in her contacts and complained, “There’s a new drama going on these few days. It’s making me want to throw up. That male star has been dating a girl for nine years!”
“Nine years, Brother Yu. She gave the best years in her twenties to that male star, but he cheated on her everywhere. He has no bottom line. It’s too scary.”
Mu Anan complained about the past few days and finally found Jiang Zhen’s phone number.
The seventh master did not say anything throughout the whole process. He just listened to her quietly.
He liked the girl to talk more.
The girl’s voice was very pleasant and soft. When she spoke, her expression was full of emotions and she was very obedient.
Zong Zhengyu removed two strands of Mu Anan’s hair that were stuck to the ointment.
At the same time, Mu Anan had already dialed Jiang Zhen’s number.
She pressed the speaker button.
The other party answered immediately. “Hello, is this Anan?”
“Daddy.” Mu Anan said, “I’ve already spoken to the Seventh Master. I can go to the Hillside Yard in the Qi Mountain with you to visit Youngest Uncle.”
When Mu Anan said this, Jiangzhen became excited. “Really? Then, 1’11 arrange it immediately. I’ll arrange it right now… Are we going the day after tomorrow? No, no, no, tomorrow! Tomorrow!
“I’ll pick you up tomorrow!”
Jiang Zhen was very excited and made a lot of noise.
Zong Zhengyu frowned and said to the phone, “The day after tomorrow.”
As soon as he said that, Jiang Zhen, who was originally shouting excitedly, instantly sank.
After a few seconds, he stuttered weakly and asked, “Seventh…Seventh Master is here too…”
Mu Anan held back her laughter and looked at Zong Zhengyu.
“The day after tomorrow.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone and threw it to the side.
He couldn’t be bothered to say more.
Looking at the girl speaking to Jiang Zhen in such an obedient tone, the Seventh Master’s eyes were filled with killing intent.
“Seventh Master, why did you choose the day after tomorrow? You can go tomorrow too.” Mu Anan asked with a smile and leaned back into the Seventh Master’s arms.
Zong Zhengyu didn’t say anything.
Mu Anan said happily and did not expect any response from the seventh master.
As she leaned into Seventh Master’s arms, Mu Anan’s gaze fell on the package on the bedside table.
When the seventh master carried her to the bedroom, the servant also took out the package that Mu Anan had placed in the wheelchair and placed it on the bedside table.
This package had been lying quietly in a certain company somewhere for ten years.
It was a gift from Mu Anan’s mother ten years ago when she was still ten years old.
When Seventh Master lowered his head, he saw Mu Anan staring at the package in a daze. He asked, “Open it and take a look.”
Mu Anan shook her head. “I can guess what’s inside, but I…”
She didn’t want to open it now.
Mu Anan didn’t express her feelings, but the Seventh Master understood. He didn’t say much but hugged the girl tighter.
Mu Anan was still staring at the package. “Seventh Master, did you know that my mother is a very gentle person? She’s super, super gentle, and super elegant.”
“I know.”
“When I was young, I saw many phone calls, but in my heart, none of them could compare to Mom. Mom was the gentlest and most beautiful. She was an angel, the best mother in the world!”
At the mention of her gentle and elegant mother, who was infatuated with her, Mu Anan’s heart ached, and her eyes could not help but tear up.
However, she stubbornly refused to let her tears fall.
She looked at Zong Zhengyu seriously, “My mother is gentle.”
She wanted to tell the world.
In the third year of junior high school, there was an essay about her mother.
The clever thing was that after the students finished writing, the form teacher held a parent-teacher meeting and invited all the parents to come down so that the students could read it to all the mothers.
There were all kinds of mothers.
Irascible, short-tempered, muddle-headed, smart.
After each student finished reading their essay, they would proudly point at their mother in the seat, showing everyone that this was the mother in their essay.
Only Mu Anan.
She wrote, “My mother is very gentle, like an angel.”
She wrote, “My mother understands me the most and will always comfort me when I’m unhappy.”
She wrote, “My mother is the most elegant and beautiful.”
However, when her classmates asked her where her mother was, they were curious and kind. They wanted to see where the perfect mother, who had combined elegance and gentleness in Mu Anan’s perfect essay, was.
Mu Anan could only remain silent.
Even when faced with the unintentional ridicule of her classmates, she could only remain silent.
She also wanted to proudly announce to the world that she had the best mother, but no one gave her a chance.
Her mother had died in the house she lived in, in the hands of the assailants, in a pool of blood.
Died in…
In front of her.
“Girl.”
When Mu Anan’s tears fell uncontrollably, Zong Zhengyu pulled her up and let her sit on his lap. “Girl, look at me..”
