Hidden Marriage, Overbearing Love: Mr! Please Let Me Go

Chapter 170: Chapter 171 Waiting for Uncle’s Call

Bao Tinghao knew Mu Shini liked hotpot, so he wanted to take her to have hotpot. As they stopped in front of the hotpot restaurant, Mu Shini hurriedly shook her head and said, ”We’re not having hotpot today, let’s go for Cantonese cuisine instead!”

Driving the car, Bao Tinghao looked at Mu Shini and asked in a low voice, ”Don’t you really like hotpot?”

”I do like it, but I want to change my taste. I’ve had too much recently...”

Mu Shini’s face suddenly turned a little pale.

Last night, she and Uncle Hei Che flew out of the province for hotpot, and almost got into big trouble. Luckily, Uncle Hei Che didn’t take advantage of the situation.

Now she’s too scared to eat hotpot, the fear still lingering.

”I really admire how you can switch between different flavors so easily, even to such mild Cantonese cuisine,” Bao Tinghao said with a light laugh, looking at Mu Shini in amazement.

”I can’t help but be a foodie, so I love everything as long as it’s tasty,” Mu Shini said with a smile, her lips slightly pursed.

...

After ordering the dishes, they were served quickly.

Drinking the sweet and delicious soup, Mu Shini felt warm and cozy.

”Where did you go last night? When I came to look at the apartment, I didn’t see you,” Bao Tinghao asked while picking up some food, looking at Mu Shini.

”Oh, last night? I went out to play and came back around ten o’clock. But how do you know I live in this apartment?” Mu Shini stared at Bao Tinghao with big eyes.

Bao Tinghao’s cheeks turned a little red as he replied in a low voice, ”I dropped you off before, but I didn’t know which room you lived in. It’s really such a coincidence that I ended up being your neighbor!”

Mu Shini’s eyes seemed magical. He couldn’t look away, completely captivated.

”Yes, it’s really a coincidence!” Mu Shini raised her bowl to drink the soup, glanced at him, and said, ”Drink the soup...”

Other girls usually drink soup with a spoon, but Mu Shini just picks up the bowl directly.

”Shini, you’re truly special,” Bao Tinghao said.

Mu Shini felt immense pressure upon hearing this. Why did it sound so familiar?

Didn’t Li Xiaotian often say such lines from idol dramas?

A guy liking a girl often results in that line: You’re really special.

Secretly, Mu Shini glanced at Bao Tinghao’s gaze on her, filled with tender affection and a hint of admiration...

Oh no, oh no!

That look...

Oh my god!

Why has her romantic luck been so strong recently?

But her financial luck is terrible—she’s drowning in debt!

Luckily, she only owes Uncle Hei Che over 300,000 yuan now!

Considering the incident last night, it wasn’t baseless, at least it allowed her to pay off a huge debt of 200,000 yuan in one go!

Could Bao Tinghao also have feelings for her?

Yet Bao Tinghao knows she’s married.

She had clarified with Bao Tinghao last time that she was married, with intentions to avoid Bao Tinghao mistakenly falling for her.

That could count as both a warning and a reminder!

”There’s nothing special about me. I’m a girl, so I’m naturally special to you...” Mu Shini hurriedly said, ”Hurry up and drink the soup and eat. Later we can go...”

While Mu Shini was speaking, her phone on the table started vibrating.

She glanced at it—it was Uncle Hei Che calling. Pausing, she said to Bao Tinghao, ”Sorry, let me take this call!”

”Hello! Uncle!”

Mu Shini’s voice was laced with uncontrollable joy when she answered Uncle Hei Che’s call.

She wasn’t aware of it, but in Bao Tinghao’s ears, it sounded ironic.

Mu Shini was so happy to receive a call from her uncle...

It was like she had been waiting for his call.
