Chapter 43: I'll pick you up

Although, he's certain that his young wife couldn't possibly appear in such a place at night, that figure was really uncanny!

To say what Bao Junyan finds most familiar with Mu Huan, would be her body, because they spend most of their time together at night.

“Brother Yan, what's wrong?” Gong Zeye asked, frowning at him.

“I still have something to do. Get off in front and take a taxi back.” Bao Junyan told the driver to find a place to stop and kicked Gong Zeye out.

Gong Zeye: “…”

After Gong Zeye left, Bao Junyan called Mu Huan.

Mu Huan, who was joking with Li Meng, fished out her key and was about to turn on the electric motorcycle, when she heard the call. At first glance, it was Bao Junyan on the line and hurriedly hushed Li Meng.

She answered the phone and greeted softly, “Husband.”

“Are you at home?”

Mu Huan was stunned, “No … no, husband, are you home?”

Did he not find her at home so he called?

How come he returned so early today!

“Where are you?”

The thumping in Mu Huan's heart sped up!

“What's wrong, husband?”

“I'm on my way home so I'll pick you up along the way.” Bao Junyan wasn't suspicious of Mu Huan. Although he doesn't know his little wife well, he's certain that she would definitely not go to that kind of place for fun.

However, that uncanny similarity to his wife, coming out of that place, made him a bit disturbed, so he wanted to see his young wife.

“Don't pick me up, I'll take a taxi and go home immediately.” Mu Huan would never dare face Bao Junyan at the moment.

“Where?” The question from Bao Junyan was a command which broke no room for argument.

Mu Huan knew that he had to come. Her temple throbbed painfully. After sweeping a look around, “I'm in a bookstore!”

“That bookstore, send me the address and I'll pick you up.”

“Husband, where are you now? The bookstore is about to close at such a late hour. I'll wait to see if you can get here. If you can't, I will wait elsewhere.” She needs to calculate how much time she has.

Bao Junyan glanced out the window and said, “Near CITIC Tower.”

Mu Huan heard the CITIC Tower nearby and was even more agitated. She stuttered involuntarily. “I … I don't know the exact location here. I'll ask the clerk and send it to you.”

“Okay.”

Mu Huan hung up the phone, hurriedly took out the bag from her electric motorcycle, grabbed Li Meng's hand and ran towards the bookstore opposite them.

“What's the matter?”

“Bao Junyan is coming to pick me up. Take my mobile phone and go to the bookstore. After three minutes, send the location of the bookstore to Bao Junyan, and then pick some pharmacy-related books. I will go to the bathroom to change clothes!” Mu Huan instructed while running.

“OK!” Li Meng has been her partner for so long and has very tacit understanding. She doesn't need to say anything more for her to know what to do.

Mu Huan had been to this bookstore before. Knowing that there is a bathroom there, she entered the bookstore, and went straight to the bathroom upstairs, so the clerks did not see her.

Pharmacy-related books happened to be upstairs, so Li Meng followed.

After Mu Huan removed her makeup in the bathroom, and with her hair permed, she lowered her head and washed her head under the faucet. Fortunately, it was summer. The water was not so cool and her hair was short. She washed it very quickly. Her summer clothes were just a dress, which she changed into speedily. In just a few minutes, she's done with everything.

Li Meng also picked out the books for her.

It's just that her hair was still obviously wet.

“What to do, you hair is still wet!” Li Meng looked at her dripping hair.

Mu Huan glanced at the air conditioner, stood on a stool, and let it blow her hair. Although it was cool wind, it was also wind, which can dry her hair faster.

Fortunately, in the evening, there's a specialized book area upstairs. No one, n.o.body would ever think she's insane.

“You can catch a cold like this!” Li Meng attempted to drag her back.

“It's too late.” Mu Huan retorted while combing her hair with her fingers to speed up the drying process. Even if it isn't completely dry, it couldn't be so wet. Slightly wet in the summer could be said to be sweaty, but soaking wet, there is no way to explain it!

Right on time, Bao Junyan called.

“What to do? What to do?” Li Meng chanted anxiously, her hair is still wet now!
