Chapter 60: If You Like Someone Else, I’ll Break Your Leg

Mu Anan didn’t dare to fix her eyes on Zong Zhengyu.
She took a peek and then lowered her head to eat, pretending that it was just a casual topic.
She couldn’t even tell what the food tasted like.
The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became quiet.
Mu Anan could only hear her heartbeat and the sound of nervous sweat.
She was looking forward to Zong Zhengyu’s answer, but she was also afraid.
However, Seventh Master did not speak for a long time.
…..
Finally, a phone rang, interrupting their conversation.
“Say.”
Zong Zhengyu picked up the phone and left the dining room.
Mu Anan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but then she could not help but feel a little disappointed.
She wanted to know his answer.
Would he support her obsessive love for him?
Although she was regretful and disappointed, Mu Anan quickly restrained her emotions.
This topic had already pa.s.sed, and it was impossible to continue asking in the short term.
Mu Anan lowered her eyes and ate quietly.
She didn’t notice that Zong Zhengyu, who had walked out of the dining room and was standing outside the French window to answer his work call, had turned back several times to look at Mu Anan, who was eating quietly.
His mind was filled with Mu Anan’s question.
She said that if she liked someone so much, would he support her?
No!
Even if he ruined her, he would not let her leave the Yuyuan Estate and have someone else in her heart.
This was Zong Zhengyu’s direct answer.
Mu Anan had just finished her meal as Zong Zhengyu’s work call ended.
He returned to the dining room and took his coat.
“Seventh Master, are you going out again?” Mu Anan mumbled.
Zong Zhengyu nodded.
“Are you going to the kind of c.o.c.ktail party, in which some lipstick marks will be left on your collar again?”
Zong Zhengyu had just put on his coat. When he heard Mu Anan’s words, he raised his eyebrows, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I just think that this c.o.c.ktail party is really interesting. Someone can even leave a lipstick mark on Seventh Master’s collar. It’s even a YSL lipstick with color code 23! Awesome!”
“Cunning girl.”
Zong Zhengyu walked over and rubbed Mu Anan’s head, “I’ll bring you there next time.”
“It’s useless for me to go. No one wants to leave lipstick marks on my collar.” “Are you going to keep being that mean?”
Mu Anan shut her mouth, but she still grabbed Zong Zhengyu’s hand and bit it.
“Go ahead. I’ll see what color code it is tonight.”
“I’m going to the company.”
“Alright.”
Mu Anan replied perfunctorily and ran away from the dining room, ignoring Zong Zhengyu.
Seventh Master stood still. Seeing Mu Anan’s back, the corners of his mouth curled up resignedly as he shook his head.
As expected, she never grew up, and did as she wished.
Mu Anan returned to her room. After watching from the window as Zong Zhengyu got into his car and left, she headed for the bathroom to take a shower.
As her hand was injured and could not get wet, Mu Anan asked the maid to help.
It was 8:00 pm when she finished showering.
According to the content of the conversation between Huo Xian and Chen Hua, Huo Xian and Chen Hua should have met at around 7:00 pm.
As she looked at the quiet group chat and saw that Huo Xian had not sent a message, she was basically sure that Chen Hua had gone to the appointment.
Mu Anan did care any longer and went to revise.
The psychiatric hospital has so far failed to catch the person who stole the medical records. But after a full day of Mu Anan and Chen Hua working overtime with some seniors, the medical records book was restocked.
Copying medical records was truly exhausting.
Initially, Mu Anan did not mind the person who stole the medical records, but she still could not help but curse at him when she finished coping.
“Did this man take the wrong medication, or why else would he steal the medical records of a psychiatric hospital?”
However, the biggest advantage of copying medical records was that she could directly understand some medical history, drugs, and knowledge points.
Mu Anan sat in her chair for two hours without moving.
Only when she was tired did she stretch and go to the toilet.
When she came out, her phone rang.
It was a call from Chen Hua.
Mu Anan raised her eyebrows. It seemed that the dinner tonight had come to an end.
Mu Anan picked it up and asked with a smile, “How is it, fangirl?”
“How… How exciting.” Chen Hua’s voice was trembling over the phone. She seemed to be on the side of the road, and Mu Anan could still hear the sound of cars pa.s.sing by.
“Haven’t you gone home yet?” Mu Anan asked.
Chen Hua paused for a moment, “Senior said he wanted to send me home, but I rejected him. I feel that if I continue to stay with him, I’ll go crazy. No, I’ve already gone crazy! Mu Anan, I’m really, really going crazy!”
Chen Hua almost shouted the last two sentences at the top of her lungs. It was obvious that she had been holding it in for the entire night.
Mu Anan listened quietly while Chen Hua kept shouting. The content of her shouting was basically ‘Insane’, ‘Oh my G.o.d’or ‘For G.o.d’s sake’. It was a kind of emotional venting.
Mu Anan listened quietly.
Chen Hua shouted for about three to five minutes before she suddenly quieted down. Her voice was much lower. “Anan, do you understand? Tonight was my dream night. He… He is my dream.”
Mu Anan listened quietly.
Chen Hua said, “Actually, I still have a secret in my heart. Huo Xian and I are from the same high school. He was already a popular star when he was in high school. He didn’t like to study and played around and fought every day. I even b.u.mped into him once when he was smoking a cigarette and dragged a man off the ground into the water and held his head down, nearly drowning him.”
“I was brought up to be a peaceful person, so I always avoided such kind people. However, I didn’t avoid my heart. That day, I was so scared that I wanted to cry. He stood behind me and stretched his hand over my shoulder, pushing someone away. He just said, “I’ll try taking one.”
“Later, I heard that he had suddenly changed in his senior year. He started studying, declaring that he was going to medical school. He took my heart away by simply saying “Have a try”.”
“Anan, I came to medical school to pursue my dream.”
“Anan. Thank you so much, really, for bringing my dream to me.”
“Anan, he’s really, really good.”
“Even though I know he could never be into me. He was a little concerned when you didn’t show up today, but didn’t even say anything to embarra.s.s me.”
After that, Mu Anan listened to Chen Hua’s intermittent talk for about half an hour. It was all about the thoughts of a young girl. Perhaps because they all had a dream in their hearts, Mu Anan could empathize with them.
After ending the call, Mu Anan looked out the window and thought about Zong Zhengyu.
Seventh Master was also her dream.
He was the dream she had gone forward to pursue with her last breath.
Mu Anan lowered her head and smiled. She was going to continue studying for another two hours until Zong Zhengyu came back, but the phone on the bedside rang and attracted her attention.
That was from the phone with Zong Qi’s phone number and WeChat on it.
Mu Anan walked over and saw that it was Liangliang.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, Liangliang would send her a WeChat message and only call her when he was anxious.
…..
Mu Anan did not wear a voice changer and did not bother to get one. She hung up the phone and sent a message to Liangliang on WeChat.
Zong Qi: “What’s the matter? It’s not convenient to answer the phone.”
Liangliang: “Is it convenient to meet? It was about Jiang Feng.”
Zong Qi: “No.”
Seventh Master had been in a fit of anger for the past two days. If she ran out again, her legs would be broken.
Liangliang: “Alright, I’ll be direct. Do you remember the scavenger that 1 told you about the day you and Jiang Feng raced? The Scavenger of Xiyun Mountain! Once a bet is made, no matter what, it has to be kept or the Scavenger will show up to deal with it!
Mu Anan looked at the bright message and frowned slightly.
The Scavenger was a very mysterious and powerful organization. As long as the bet was made at Xiyun Mountain, there was no room for backtracking.
Although Mu Anan had said that she would not punish Jiang Feng for Jiang Qin’s sake, it was just saying. Because she was clear that once the bet was placed, even if she didn’t pursue it, it would be useless and the Scavenger would deal with it.
But now, seeing how anxious Liang was, it was obvious that something was wrong!
Zong Qi: “What happened?”
