Xu Youning thought that Mu Sijue would leave after dinner, but no, he was sitting in the living room and talking to her granny .

Xu Youning always thought that nobody would have the nerve to ask Mu Sijue about his life . If anyone did, he would kick his ass hard .

But at the moment he was sitting on the couch right across Granny Xu, leaning towards her, listening patiently to the nagging of that old lady, and answering every question she asked with higher tone, which made Granny Xu very happy .

For a few minutes, Xu Youning had the illusion that she was dreaming . After all, it was so not Mu Sijue for him to be “nice . ”

At about nine o’clock, Mu Sijue got up from the couch . “Granny, I think I need to take off now . I will come visit you when I have time . ”

“Sure, I will be waiting . ” Granny Xu stood up, saying to Mu Sijue with a big smile on her face, “Youning is the kind person who easily gets into trouble . Now she’s working for you, so I hope that maybe you can take care of her more and give her more advice . ”

Mu Sijue smiled . “I will . ”

He didn’t vow or give any solid guarantee . But when he said “I will,” it was reassuring enough . Granny Xu obviously was convinced that he would take care of Xu Youning .

But on the contrary, the favorite thing he liked to do was bullying Xu Youning!

Xu Youning totally despised Mu Sijue at her heart . If she didn’t see it for herself, she wouldn’t know that Mu Sijue was such a hypocrite .

Granny Xu beckoned to Xu Youning, “Youning, you should send Mr . Mu out . ”

Xu Youning said unwillingly, “He knows the way…” Granny Xu gave her a stern gaze while she was talking, so she had to take that back and sent Mu Sijue out reluctantly .

There was a black Land Rover parked outside, on which the logo was plain and fashionable . No one was in the car, and Mu Sijue went straight to the driver’s seat .

Xu Youning was surprised . It was rare for Mu Sijue to be driving by himself .

On the other side, Mu Sijue lowered the window, lit a cigarette and looked at Xu Youning relaxingly . He asked, “Are you upset?”

Xu Youning gave him a strong “Pfft!” and said, “Don’t say it as if you’ve ever made me happy . ”

Mu Sijue took a deep look at Xu Youning, frowning . Then, he closed the window and drove away .

“… Unbelievable!”

Xu Youning gave him the finger as he drove off, and ran back to the house . As she went in, she saw the paper that Mu Sijue had asked for lying on the coffee table . She called Mu Sijue while he still wasn’t far, but he responded indifferently, “Leave it . Just bring it to me tomorrow . ”

“But you…”

Xu Youning only said two words, and he hung up . She held the phone, puzzled, and froze for a while .

“What’s wrong?” Granny Xu went over and looked at Xu Youning, beaming . “You look like you’ve encountered the biggest problem in your life . ”

Xu Youning pointed at the documents on the coffee table, “Mu Sijue had said he came for this . I reminded him that he had left them here, but he told me to take them to him tomorrow . If he wasn’t in a hurry, why did he come over? Doesn’t he have a life?”

Granny Xu smiled and didn’t comment . She asked, “Did he know about your blind date?”

Xu Youning was embarrassed, “He saw us…”

Granny Xu confirmed her thoughts and smiled knowingly . But then she saw the confusion on Xu Youning’s face . She decided not to remind her .

Sometimes, it was for the best to leave things for desire and exploration .

After showering, Xu Youning went back to her room and lay down, and kept thinking about how to tell Han Rui gently that she just wanted to be friends with him . If she kept seeing him, she would hurt him .

She didn’t want to hurt anyone anymore .

Xu Youning kept thinking until she felt sleepy . But still, she couldn’t come up with anything . At last, she decided to leave it first . She would make it clear to Han Rui when he called her again .

Otherwise, making a deliberate phone call to say such things would hurt his feelings .

To her surprise, Han Rui, who had once showed interest in her, didn’t call her in the following days .

Nothing special happened in the following few days . But then, she heard the neighbor mention that Han Rui was seeing someone who was a law graduate and was interning in the court . They seemed to have clicked, and almost fell for each other at first sight .

When Xu Youning went out that morning, the neighbor held Xu Youning’s hand and said, “A Ning, you two will be as happy as Han Rui is right now . ”

Xu Youning couldn’t comprehend at all . ‘You two?’ Which two? So happy?

Feeling confused, she went to the Number One Clubhouse and surprisingly saw Mu Sijue again .

Mu Sijue had been busy for the three days prior . Ever since he had left her place, she hadn’t seen him . But then she saw him at the clubhouse in that early morning . It was unexpected . Because normally, Mu Sijue would be having a meeting at the office at that time .

She had a bad feeling . “Seventh Brother, what are you doing here?”

Mu Sijue handed Xu Youning a white bag with the word “CHANEL” and its prominent brand logo .

Xu Youning opened the bag . There was an elegant and exquisite purse of CHANEL’s classic collection inside . It was all in white, finely made with a superior texture, giving out the vibe of sophistication and refinement .

It was said that it was a purse that could drive every woman crazy .

Xu Youning tossed the bag away, then flipped the purse inside and out . But there is nothing special in it . She didn’t give up and checked it again .

She had flipped it for a while and Mu Sijue frowned . “Xu Youning, what are you doing?”

“I’m checking for the things that you want me to look for . ” There was still nothing the second time she examined it . “But I really can’t find it . Where in the purse did you hide the launching device or something like that in?”

At the first sight of that bag, Xu Youning’s first reaction was: “This is a modified purse . ”

The luxury brand was the natural cover, distracting people’s attention . But when it was opened, it could turn into a gun that killed people before they realized . Maybe there was a secret button in the purse that could function as trigger, or a secret design for hiding deadly weapons .

Xu Youning was not being crazy . She was serious . There was only one possible reason for Mu Sijue to give her such a feminine gift . Plus, she was indeed a girl . It was natural that she had a purse or two, which wouldn’t cause any suspicion .

Mu Sijue finally figured out what Xu Youning was thinking and his face became gloomy .

Xu Youning thought that Mu Sijue found her useless . She asked with a lack of confidence, “Seventh Brother, should I try it again?”

Mu Sijue didn’t ease in the slightest . Worse, he was even more pissed, as if he were going to kill someone . He grabbed the bag from Xu Youning who was still in confusion and left without a word .

Xu Youning touched the tip of her nose, puzzled . Alright, she admitted that she had been a little bit slow, since she couldn’t find anything weird in the purse . But, was it necessary for Mu Sijue to be so pissed off?

Mu Sijue threw the purse into the trash bin after he left and went downstairs .

He got in the car and Shen Yuechuan called . He asked proudly, “Hey, how’s that purse working for you? A purse that was air-shipped across the continent from France . Was that purse an irresistible charm to your dearest Youning? How are you gonna thank me for such a great plan, huh?”

Mu Sijue sneered and replied, “You should be glad that I’m in City G right now . ”

Stepping on the accelerator, he left quickly, heading to the office .

If he were still in City A, not only would the purse be thrown into the trash can, but also Shen Yuechuan, the bastard who had suggested him to get the purse!

Ah Guang came out from the elevator after Mu Sijue left and was heading to Xu Youning’s office .

In the past three days, he had moved on and accepted the fact that Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were together . They honestly looked very good together . He should feel happy for them .

In addition to his family, Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were the most important people in the world . Why would he be unhappy if they were happy?

As for him, he would be happy as well . The time was yet to come .

Ah Guang saw a familiar purse lying in the trash can near Xu Youning’s office .

Shen Yuechuan dropped the purse in person that morning and said that Mu Sijue had asked people to buy it from abroad as a gift to Xu Youning . How come it had been thrown into the trash can?

Seeing that it wasn’t dirty, Ah Guang picked it up, dusted it off and took it into Xu Youning’s office .

Xu Youning was still thinking hard about what she had missed . When she looked up, she saw Ah Guang carrying the purse which had just placed her in an awkward position . She asked in surprise, “You found it?”

Ah Guang seemed to be more surprised than Xu Youning . “Found what?”

“The special design for the purse!” Xu Youning gritted her teeth and indignantly continued, “I searched for a long time and still couldn’t find out how to turn it into a gun!”

“…” Speechless .

Ah Guang finally understood why the bag was lying in the trash can . The great Seventh Brother had sent a woman a gift for the very first time, and the gift was mistaken for a weapon .

“Sister Youning…” Ah Guang seemed frustrated . “This is a gift that Seventh Brother asked people to buy from France . It’s a gift! A woman’s purse! No hidden weapons or special design! It can’t kill people!”

“A gift… from Mu Sijue?”

It was like complete nonsense to Xu Youning . She understood every word that Ah Guang said . When they were combined, it sounded so unrealistic .

Ah Guang shook his head . “Poor Seventh Brother . This is the first time he has given a present to a woman!”

“How so?” Xu Youning was suspicious . “Mu Sijue has dated so many women, and there were a few whom he liked a lot . He never bought them stuff?”

“A check is not a gift, right?” Ah Guang said, “He just signed on the check . He didn’t need to put in any effort . ”

Xu Youning took it over and fiddled it, feeling dreamy . “Why did he give me this out of the blue?”

Ah Guang thought about it . “Maybe he was trying to make you happy?”

“Make me happy?”

She suddenly recalled that day when Mu Sijue left her place, he asked her if she was upset . She replied casually, “As if you’ve ever made me happy!”

So, Mu Sijue remembered that? Or did he just want to mess with one of his dates with a purse?

Xu Youning thought that it was more likely to be the latter . She didn’t think that Mu Sijue would remember and respond to something she said spontaneously .
