Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 985: Chapter 998: I Don’t Know

Unexpectedly, Captain Mu, who appears cold and stern, is also so knowledgeable.

”The books are indeed his, but I’ve never really seen him reading them,” An Ran said, leaning against the door, finally voicing what she’d always been thinking.

She remembered when she first saw the wall of bookshelves, she even doubted whether the books were just for show. But later she discovered that almost all the books showed signs of being read, with many containing Mu Xingfeng’s notes.

”You don’t understand, just because someone likes to read doesn’t mean they have to show it to others. I think someone like Captain Mu is low-key. Maybe he reads by the bedside at night, with just a lamp, immersing himself in the sea of knowledge,” Xiaoyu said, clapping her hands, turning around with her eyes squinting at An Ran, ”Do you know what I do?”

Honestly, when An Ran heard Xiaoyu talking about Mu Xingfeng reading at night, she couldn’t help but touch her stomach that had just been growling with hunger. Not only was that feeling long gone, she even felt overwhelmingly full.

An Ran put on a Mona Lisa-like smile, showing her perfect eight little white teeth, and with great effort, she moved her facial muscles, ”I don’t know.”

”I work as a teacher with our Guard Team,” Xiaoyu said, puffing her chest out even more while saying this.

Looking at the obvious 38C padded bra, An Ran nodded again, as if she was learning something new.

”What do you do?” Xiaoyu looked at An Ran, who didn’t seem very knowledgeable and far from being like those highly intellectual types.

”I’m still in school,” An Ran replied.

”Still in school? So young and already married?” Xiaoyu got interested. She even thought that Mu Xingfeng’s relationship with this girl was probably just boyfriend and girlfriend at most.

The engagement last time didn’t go through, right? Doesn’t that mean the relationship hasn’t been established yet?

Besides, these days in the city, it’s common for boyfriends and girlfriends to call each other husband and wife.

Thinking of this, Xiaoyu felt even better and was about to head to the opposite bedroom as she left the study.

An Ran didn’t answer her question. Seeing Xiaoyu about to go to the bedroom, she directly blocked the doorway, no longer able to maintain even the thin politeness, ”Miss Huang, thank you for the things Chief Guard Huang sent over. It’s getting late, and I want to go to the nearby market to buy some groceries. I won’t keep you any longer.”

Hearing An Ran’s straightforward way of sending her off, Xiaoyu wasn’t angry but rather amused, ”Look at me, I felt so at ease when I saw you that I lost track of time. I’ll head back now. I live in Building 8, the same building as Chief Guard Wang. Feel free to visit my place sometime, don’t be a stranger. I’ll be home all summer, and it gets boring.”

”Alright, I won’t see you off then, Miss Huang. Take care.” Finally managing to send her off, An Ran leaned against the door, her feelings indescribable.

You could say this Chief Guard Huang’s sister isn’t rude; when I showed her out, she didn’t get angry. But if you say she has a good temper, there’s something that just feels off.

Seeing it was really getting late, An Ran decided to call Liu Hu and asked him to wait for her downstairs.

After hanging up, she quickly tied up her hair, grabbed her bag, and headed downstairs.

As she was going down, Chief Guard Huang’s sister hadn’t gone far and was chatting with Sister-in-law Sun from Captain Li’s family between the two buildings. When she saw An Ran coming out, she even waved at her.

An Ran nodded slightly as a form of greeting and seeing Liu Hu already driving over, she jogged over to him.
