81: C81 They Were like a Family of Three

C81 They Were like a Family of Three

Why would he buy such a small suite for him?

Mu Tingye said lightly, "No, this was bought by a friend of mine because he often came to the hospital to take care of his mother. Not long ago, his mother recovered from her illness and the house was empty. If you live here, it will be much more convenient for you to take care of Xiangxiang."

Ji Nian heard this and was happy in her heart. She did not seriously investigate whether the house was really bought by his friend. As she sized up the house, she asked, "Can I live here?"

"Of course, if you want to." He raised his eyebrows and did not have any expression of not being able to.

"Then help me ask your friend how much rent he charges per month." Ji Nian only thought that staying here was indeed convenient to go to the hospital to take care of Xiangxiang. She did not notice that Mu Tingye's expression was a little dark.

"Ji Nian, you want to rent this place?" He looked at her with a heavy gaze.

"If I don't rent it, would he give it to me for free?" He asked such a ridiculous question.

Mu Tingye narrowed his eyes. "You are my woman. What's wrong with living here for free?"

Ji Nian glanced at him. This man was talking to himself again. She was too lazy to argue with him. As long as she did not take it seriously, she knew she could not argue with him.

"Help me ask how much the rent is. If he says it is free, then I will not live here anymore." There was no free lunch in the world. She understood this principle.

Mu Tingye only felt that this woman was not an ordinary stubborn person. She could not help but ask for money for free. How could a capitalist like him, who weighed the pros and cons, like this woman who did not have any plans for his own interests?

Forget it. She had always been such a stubborn woman. What could he do to her? If she did not know how to calculate, then he would at most help her calculate.

"Alright, I'll take some time to accompany you to buy furniture." He could only give in.

Ji Nian's eyebrows jumped and she quickly said, "You are so busy. There is no need to trouble you. I can go by myself."

He gave her a glance and casually said, "If you do not want to live here, you can go and buy furniture by yourself."

He threatened her again! She clenched her fist. Why was this man able to threaten her when he caught something? He was indeed a cunning profiteer!

The indignation in her heart had yet to dissipate when he suddenly grabbed her shoulder and walked outside.

"Where are you going again?" She stared at the claw on her shoulder and hoped that he would be tactful enough to let go so that she wouldn't bite him again.

Mu Tingye turned off the light and closed the door, but did not let go of her. "There's nothing here. Are you going to stay here tonight?"

Ji Nian wanted to say that she would stay in a hotel nearby for a night, but it seemed impossible for Mu Tingye to do that.

That night, she could only stay at Mu Tingye's house. That big house that could be opened with her fingerprints, she was really stupid. Why was she stupidly dragging a suitcase on the street earlier? Wasn't there a house here that allowed her to enter and leave as she pleased?

After moving out of Gudu, Ji Nian was busy moving into the neighborhood near the hospital. She bought some daily necessities for the time being. She knew that there were some things that she could not rush. After living in an empty house for a long time, things naturally filled up little by little.

Of course, the things that were piled up in her heart were thrown away little by little. After a long time, she would not feel clogged. Some people would forget some things if they did not think about it.

Ji Nian thought so. At least for now, she did not think about the matter of Lu Shaocheng and Qiao An'er anymore.

She only waited for Lu Shaocheng to send the divorce agreement to her one day. This time, it was impossible for her not to let go.

Xiangxiang's illness did not happen frequently during this period of time and had always maintained a stable condition. Ji Nian was surprised and happy at the same time, so she fulfilled the promise of bringing Xiangxiang to a pirate ship.

Gu Chen must bring along with him. As for Mu Tingye whom Xiangxiang invited, Ji Nian called him. It was Mu Tingye's secretary who answered the call. He said that the company was very busy recently and he was holding an important meeting.

Ji Nian thought that Mu Tingye was a person who had a lot of work to do every day and should not delay his time. She would invite him next time.

Xiangxiang had always been sensible. She knew that Mu Tingye was busy, so she did not insist. The three of them went to the pirate ship together.

Ji Nian specially asked the staff to slow down the speed of the pirate ship. She only wanted to fulfill Xiangxiang's wish and did not want her to play too hard.

Although it was not the weekend, there were still many parents in the park bringing their children out to play.1

Ji Nian and the other two were waiting for the next pirate ship. During this time, they could walk around.

At the place selling cotton candy, Xiangxiang was shouting that she wanted to eat. Gu Chen took the initiative to buy cotton candy for her. Ji Nian and Xiangxiang stood by the side and waited for him.

The vendor who sold cotton candy handed a white cotton candy to Gu Chen and even said with a smile, "Sir, Madam, your daughter is very cute."

Ji Nian's eyes twitched. What kind of look did this vendor have? Did they look like a family of three? She was about to say something when Gu Chen smiled gently and said, "Thank you for the compliment." Then he handed over the money in his hand.

The peddler took the money and kept praising it. He was so happy that his eyes could not be seen.

These peddlers, it was one thing for them to open their eyes when they saw money, but they could not say things that went against their conscience. Xiangxiang did not have any similarities with the two of them at all. It was one thing to say that she was her daughter, but they could not drag the still single Gu Chen into it.

Xiangxiang took the cotton candy that Gu Chen bought for her and said happily and politely, "Thank you, Uncle Xi."

At this time, Ji Nian saw the smile on the peddler's face stiffen. After the three of them turned around and left, she could not help but laugh when she thought of the stiff smile on the peddler's face.

Gu Chen looked at Ji Nian who had a smile on her lips and couldn't help but ask, "What made you laugh secretly?"

Xiangxiang walked between the two of them. One hand was made of cotton candy and the other was held by Ji Nian. At this time, she also curiously looked up at her.

"I just thought that when the peddler heard Xiangxiang call you Uncle Xi, he was completely stunned. It was quite funny, so he said that this meal can be eaten randomly and not randomly said things." She was very enlightened.

Gu Chen still smiled gently like before. "Oh? What did he say wrong?"

"He shouldn't have said sir and wife, and he shouldn't have said Xiangxiang was your daughter. This made you, a bachelor, suffer a lot." Having a daughter for no reason would greatly affect his future prospects in marriage.

Gu Chen frowned slightly and said softly, "But I don't think I am at a disadvantage. I have a wife and a daughter. My life is perfect."

Ji Nian slightly looked over and saw that his eyes were clear and had a serious glow. He was talking about the life that he wanted.

She was lost for a moment and whispered, "But this is not your biological daughter, and I am not your wife."

"So my life is not complete yet." He sighed regretfully.

Ji Nian suddenly stood up and looked at him seriously. "Gu Chen, you will find someone you like to form a perfect family." Heaven would definitely give special treatment to an outstanding man like Gu Chen. And she... She was still stuck in a failed marriage, and there would no longer be a marriage in the future.
