After Zong Zhengyu sent someone to bring the porridge over, he didnt say anything more and sat down at the side.

Mu Anan had just recovered from her fever and did not have much strength. She kept thinking about what happened yesterday.

She wanted to start the conversation but did not know where to start.

The two of them remained silent.

Until a servant served the porridge.

Zong Zhengyu dismissed the servant. He personally carried the porridge to Mu Anans bed. He stirred the steaming porridge gently and blew on it to ensure that the temperature was right before putting it into Mu Anans mouth.

Mu Anan just watched quietly. When he put the porridge into her mouth, she was a little emotional.

When she looked up, her eyes were red.

Seeing this, Seventh Master immediately frowned and put down the porridge. He placed his right hand on Mu Anans forehead. Still having a fever?

She could feel the warmth of Seventh Masters hand on her forehead, as well as the faint smell of cigarettes on his fingertips.

Mu Anan liked the smell of cigarettes.

When she was younger, her grandfather and mother did not smoke. Only her sc.u.mbag father smoked. Her mother had strictly ordered her sc.u.mbag father to get rid of the smell of smoke if he wanted to get close to Mu Anan.

However, her sc.u.mbag father rarely got close to Mu Anan.

He didnt like Mu Anan, and she had never been close to him since she was young.

When Mu Anan grew up, she smelled the smell outside, but she did not find it as hard to accept as her mother had said.

When they arrived at Yuyuan Estate, she could smell the faint smell of smoke on Seventh Master.

It was a very pure smell of smoke. It was light and not pungent. It was especially mesmerizing.

She liked it.

Mu Anan felt extremely relieved when she smelled this scent.

She didnt want to lose this smell.

Seventh Master.

Mu Anan took a deep breath. Her voice was a little hoa.r.s.e.

She didnt know if it was because she was sick or because she had something on her mind.

Yes?

Arent you going to talk to me about what happened on the cruise yesterday?

After some thought, Mu Anan still took the initiative to talk about it. Dont you blame me?

Yesterday has pa.s.sed. Zong Zhengyu gave a very direct answer.

Mu Anans heart tightened.

Zong Zhengyu took the porridge again, stirred it gently, and fed it to Mu Anan.

Mu Anan had initially wanted to reject it because she didnt have the appet.i.te. Her stomach felt a little nauseous.

However, she couldnt bear to reject Seventh Masters gift.

Zong Zhengyu fed Mu Anan half a bowl of porridge, but he put the bowl aside when he saw that she was frowning and couldnt eat anymore.

He took a tissue and wiped Mu Anans mouth carefully. He then took her temperature to make sure everything was normal.

Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable about?

Mu Anan shook her head. I feel much better.

Her const.i.tution was not very good and she often fell sick, but she recovered quickly.

Seeing Mu Anans face turn a little red, Zong Zhengyu returned to his seat.

He was sitting casually. He wasnt wearing a formal suit today, so he exuded a lazy s.e.xiness.

Anan.

Zong Zhengyu called out slowly.

Mu Anan turned to look at Zong Zhengyu.

Zong Zhengyu raised his eyes, Yesterday on the speedboat, you asked me if the Mu family tragedy was related to me.

When Zong Zhengyu mentioned this matter, Mu Anan felt as if her heart had been strangled and she was very nervous.

For a moment, she didnt know how to breathe.

Her expression was very stiff.

I said no, said Zhong Zhengyu.

I believe you! Mu Anan almost shouted this sentence anxiously.

However, when she said this, she felt sad and guilty.

Her heart ached. Seventh Master would never lie to her.

Since she was young, Zong Zhengyu had never lied or cheated her no matter what happened.

Mu Anan had not only given her heart to the man who had given her a second life, but she had also given him all her trust.

Her guilt was due to her mother and grandfather.

Zong Zhengyu looked at the nervous child in front of him and replied, Ill give you a sentence today.

Im not the mastermind behind the Mu familys tragedy.

Zong Zhengyu spoke calmly for the first time in a true sense to discuss this matter with Mu Anan.

He didnt talk about her in the past because he felt that she was still young and had a strong personality. Although she was a smart child, she would start to be impulsive when it came to emotional problems. He was worried that she would do something stupid.

He chose to be with her now, not because Mu Anan had grown up.

It was to prevent what happened to Master Gui yesterday from happening.

This child did not know anything, and the matter with the Mu family had always been susceptible. After hearing two or three sentences, she would lose her judgment because of her emotions.

If he didnt explain it clearly, this child would let her imagination run wild.

Zong Zhengyu also remembered that day when Mu Anan grabbed his sleeve and said that if he had something to do with the Mu family, she would forgive him but not let him off.

He didnt want this child to be hurt.

Zong Zhengyu stared at Mu Anan and continued, The Mu familys case involves a lot of things. Theres even someone behind it. The Jiang family is not worth mentioning. The key is the one behind the Jiang family. If you believe me, just remember that I will give you an explanation for this matter sooner or later.

Mu Anan kept looking into Zong Zhengyus eyes and listened to him quietly.

She answered without hesitation, Alright, I believe you.

I believe everything you say.

You said it was for my good. I believed you.

You said you werent involved. I believed you.

You said that you would give me an explanation. I still believed you.

Mu Anans eyes were a little wet, but she gave Zong Zhengyu a strong smile.

For some reason, such a smile made Zong Zhengyus heart hurt.

When Zong Zhengyu stood up, his phone rang.

He lowered his head to look but did not pick it up. Instead, he hung up.

He stood up and reached out his hand to press Mu Anans head. Your hospital will close these two days. Ill take you to the suburbs.

Hmm? Mu Anan raised her head.

Didnt you say you wanted to attend a c.o.c.ktail party?

Do you want to bring me there? Mu Anan had a smile on her face

She did say that she wanted to go to the c.o.c.ktail party.

She said it because she was a little jealous when she saw the lipstick stain on Zong Zhengyus collar.

She was not interested in the c.o.c.ktail party.

But on second thought, didnt go to the c.o.c.ktail party mean that she had to wear a gown?

She could choose to be s.e.xier and more feminine. She could give Seventh Master a little stimulation from her appearance and let him know.

Thinking of this, Mu Anan smiled. Yes.

You can call your friend along.

Huo Xian? Mu Anan blurted out, and she received a sharp look from Zong Zhengyu.

Mu Anan immediately shrank back. Are you talking about Chen Hua?

As soon as she finished speaking, Zong Zhengyus phone rang again.

He took a look and did not hang up this time. If you want to bring him or her, inform Luo Sen yourself. Ask him to prepare the dresses.

After he finished speaking, Zong Zhengyu left. But when he reached the door, he added, Remember, only one is allowed.

Mu Anan immediately sat up straight and saluted. Alright! Ill only bring Huo Xian No, Chen Hua.

The seventh master could not be bothered with her. He opened the door and left.

Mu Anan lay on the bed and laughed.

Seventh Masters jealous look was too cute.

Regardless of whether it was possessiveness, jealousy, or anything else, she liked it.

As Mu Anan smiled, she thought about the Jiang family and her expression darkened.

However, it was only for a moment before it was covered up.

She sat down again and grabbed her phone, preparing to send a message to Chen Hua.

However, when she saw her chat history with Chen Hua, Mu Anan was dumbfounded.
