C105

In the lavishly decorated washroom, on the marble sink, was a mirror that stretched from the door to the wall.

Turning off the induction water cage, the flowing water abruptly stopped. Xia Mu looked at himself in the mirror and took a deep breath.

"Xia Mu, you can definitely do it!" Xia Mu said to himself as he stared at himself in the mirror.

However, he was really nervous!

Xia Mu patted his chest, before lifting his hand to tug on his ponytail, and pursed his lips. Her lips were very beautiful, and at this moment, it was suffused with an alluring luster.

When Xia Mu pushed open the door of the private room, he saw Mu Dongfang talking on the phone with his back to her.

The window was open, and the purple-red muslin curtain fluttered in the wind, bringing with it a faint fragrance.

Mu Dongfang seemed to have a telepathic connection as he turned his head, indicating for Xia Mu to sit down first. He spoke a few words into his phone before hanging up.

"What took you so long?" Mu Dongfang had a smile on his face. He seemed to notice Xia Mu's anxiety and asked intentionally.

"I," the girl said, folding her white hands in her lap, "am very nervous, Mu Dongfang." Xia Mu raised his head and stared at Mu Dong's face as he spoke softly.

A strand of hair fell down from the earpiece and was blown by the wind, lightly brushing against Xia Mu's cheek. The man's fingers nimbly grabbed onto that naughty strand of hair, tucking it behind his ear, and consoled him in a low voice, "My mom is very easy to get along with. Xia Mu, don't worry." Mu Dongdong grabbed Xia Mu's hand and placed it on his palm, gently rubbing it.

Perhaps it was because he needed his body heat to comfort the fear in his heart, but Xia Mu didn't take his hand away. "Your mother, will she like me?"

"Silly girl, you've already mesmerized his son. Do you think she'll like you?"

"Of course not!" Xia Mu's bright eyes stared coquettishly at Mu Dongfang. That bashful expression only made Mu Dongfang feel happy.

3 PM wasn't the peak hour yet, but Jiang Lanying and her group arrived a bit late.

Jiang Si Ran put his hands in his pants pockets and leisurely followed beside his sister. He said with a smile, "I was just a few minutes late. I made Dong Zi wait."

Jiang Lanying was wearing a pair of leather shoes with medium heels, but her steps were not the slightest bit dissatisfied as she replied, "That's true. I'm a mother-in-law after all. It's also fine if I'm a bit late." However, Jiang Lanying still wanted to see the girl her son liked as soon as possible.

It wasn't the first time she was a mother-in-law, but being late for the first meeting, it was inevitable that the woman would have some thoughts.

Jiang Si Ran raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "I wonder what kind of girl Dong Zi brought here?" Jiang Si Ran was very curious.

"No matter what it is, I've decided that as long as it's something he likes, I will like it." Jiang Lanying was very pleased that her son had finally taken the initiative to open his heart and start a new life. Jiang Lanying had a favorable impression of this girl whom she had never met.

Hearing his sister's words, a smile appeared on Jiang Si Ran's handsome face as he said, "Then if you've taken a fancy to her, then we might as well directly set the engagement!"

"Of course!" Jiang Lanying smiled as she continued, "Next month will be a good day!"

Jiang Si Ran looked at his sister's eager expression and the smile on his lips became even wider.

The waiter led the way to the third floor. The reserved room was at the end of the corridor.

"My phone is in the car. Go in first, I'll be there in a moment." Jiang Si Ran said with a smile.

Jiang Lanying smiled and nodded. The waiter led the way to the private room. Jiang Si Ran turned around and walked along the corridor towards the stairs.

The moment the door of the room was pushed open, he happened to descend the stairs and miss that elegant figure.

Chapter 330 - Nanny's "Questioning"

In the elegant private room.

A middle-aged woman with appropriate makeup was seated on the throne. Opposite her stood a young girl with a ponytail, looking delicate and graceful. She was quiet.

Jiang Lanying's gaze swept across Xia Mu's face with a fitting smile on her face. Overall, she was very satisfied with Xia Mu's first facet, a rather delicate and pretty little girl.

"Mom, this is Xia Mu." Mu Dongfang pulled Xia Mu and stood in front of Jiang Lanying.

"Hello, Auntie." Xia Mu opened his mouth and smiled.

A smile hung on Jiang Lanying's face, and she didn't seem to be too far away. She said, "Let's go, Xia Mu."

After Xia Mu did as he was told, he sat down next to Mu Dong.

Just as Mu Dong sat down, Jiang Lanying ordered, "Dong Zi, your uncle is coming over. I'm worried that he won't be able to find a place to stay, so you should go down and take a look."

"Mom." Mu Dongfang shouted, the meaning in his eyes clearly visible. Could it be that his mother was going to say something behind his back?

"Hurry up." Jiang Lanying stared at her son, thinking that this son was not listening to her, "I'm talking to Xia Mu, you're a man, what are you standing here for!"

Hearing this, Mu Dongdong stood up, at a place where Jiang Lanying couldn't see, and comforted Xia Mu's hand, signaling her not to worry.

Xia Mu just sat there, not daring to make any big movements. She smiled towards Mu Dongfang, indicating that she was fine.

The door of the private room was opened and closed. Silence descended upon the room.

Jiang Lanying slowly sipped a cup of tea and asked with a smile, "Xia Mu, how old are you?"

"24."

24. He was six years younger than Mu Dongdong, so he wasn't that far off. His age was quite suitable.

"Have you graduated from university?"

Xia Mu's fingers intertwined together. She didn't know whether or not Mu Dong had told his mother about his circumstances. At this moment, the woman sitting opposite him had an elegant demeanor.

In the end, Xia Mu spoke the truth.

She looked at Jiang Lanying and replied, "I'm not in university."

The smile on Jiang Lanying's face did not change as she said, "Come, have a taste. The tea here is quite good."

Xia Mu picked up the cup of tea and took a sip. It entered his mouth and cheeks and left a fragrant smell. It was indeed a top-grade good tea.

"Yes, it smells good."

Jiang Lanying looked at the girl's lowered head as she sipped her tea. She already had a rough idea of the situation, and understood why Mu Dong had arranged to bring Xia Mu here to meet her. The child's family background was probably very ordinary, and although the Mu Family wouldn't accept their child's marriage as a deal, they were still wealthy and it was reasonable for Mu Dong to be worried.

"How long have you and Dong Zi known each other?" Jiang Lanying put down her teacup and asked.

"It's been a month."

Seeing Jiang Lanying looking at him with a smile, Xia Mu suddenly felt his face burning.

Outside of the private room, Mu Dongfang smiled and said, "Why do you want to come over?"

"Let me see what kind of daughter-in-law you've found for me!"

With that, the door to the room was pushed open by a waiter. A man walked in.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Xia Mu was already feeling a bit uneasy. This sudden voice caught her off guard as she turned around. What entered her eyes was a face that she was extremely familiar with!

Xia Mu was so flustered that he stood up and knocked over the teacup on the table!

"Xia Mu!" Mu Dongfang appeared behind Jiang Si Ran and walked quickly to Xia Mu. He anxiously asked, "Are you hot enough?"

"Brother?" Xia Mu mumbled something.

Xia Mu watched as the tall figure walked from his side into the room and took a seat beside Jiang Lanying.

"Xia Mu, let me introduce you, this is Dong Zi's uncle."

A certain prawn has something to say:

Group 1 is full. Please join Group 2. The group number is 244265844.

Chapter 331 - Knowledge

A young waiter wearing a suit and waistcoat had already served the latecomer good tea as the breeze blew the burgundy curtains.

Xia Mu stood there, his hand in Mu Dongfang's grasp. Mu Dongfang had his head lowered to check if Xia Mu's hand was burning.

Brother, I …

Xia Mu's lips moved a little, and the astonishment in his bright eyes was replaced by self-blame. She understood the look in Jiang Si Ran's eyes. There was displeasure and blame.

What she had said to him more than an hour ago was still fresh in her mind, and she had lied to him and deceived him.

Xia Mu's heart sank, and she lowered her head.

"Why are you so careless?" The area between the thumb and forefinger of the tiger was scorched by the tea, causing it to turn red.

A minute ago, Jiang Si Ran had pushed open the door of the private room. He had been wondering what kind of girl he would see, and a minute later, all he could see was that she would not disappoint him at all.

Big brother, I really have something to do.

What's the matter?

The 'something' she was referring to was actually coming to see her sister with her nephew!

Xia Mu, you really are!

He held his breath against his chest, not moving an inch. However, the smile on Jiang Si Ran's face became even more pronounced.

A cold and gentle voice sounded out from the private room: "Dong Zi, why don't you introduce us?"

Mu Dongdong loosened his grip on Xia Mu's shoulder and said with a smile, "Uncle, this is my girlfriend, Xia Mu. Xia Mu, this is my uncle." "Come, call for help."

Xia Mu's eyelashes moved slightly as he lowered his head, not daring to look at the man sitting on the seat of honor. She knew that he was angry, but who could tell her that Jiang Si Ran was Mu Dong's uncle?

"This girl is shy. Alright, sit down." Jiang Lanying opened her mouth and cleared the stage.

"Are you not feeling well?" Mu Dongdong whispered while Xia Mu sat down.

"Nope." Xia Mu replied in a low voice.

The moment Jiang Silan and Mu Dongdong appeared, Jiang Lanying could no longer carry on with her question. Coincidentally, a waiter brought some pastries. The exquisite dessert was placed on a delicate porcelain plate, and the fragrance immediately wafted in all directions.

"Mom, try it." Mu Dongfang broke the silence. He stood up and brought a tray over to Jiang Lanying.

Jiang Lanying took a piece and handed another plate to Jiang Siran, who shook his head.

"Taste one." A piece of cake was placed in the porcelain plate in front of Xia Mu. As Mu Dongdong spoke, he extended his hand, which was on his lap, and gently held Xia Mu's hand.

Feeling the man's warmth, Xia Mu's disordered mood calmed down slightly. She raised her head and revealed a faint smile towards Mu Dong, indicating that she was fine.

Jiang Si Ran leaned on the spacious and comfortable high-backed chair with an enchanting glint in his watery peach blossom eyes.

"Uncle, it's really rare for you to come today." Mu Dongfang said with a smile.

A hint of a smile appeared on the lips of the handsome man. He spat out two words clearly and slowly. His voice was very soft, but it also deliberately slowed down his speed.

"Summer foam?"

Xia Mu's hand that was holding the porcelain cup suddenly stopped. He lifted his head and bumped into Jiang Si Ran's gaze.

"Yes." Xia Mu replied in a low voice.

"Summer? Foam foam? " Jiang Si Ran asked casually, but his gaze never left Xia Mu.

"Yes." Xia Mu's head drooped even lower, the hand holding the porcelain cup gradually tightened, the joints of his fingers turning white.

Mu Dongfang's deep eyes swept across his uncle Jiang Si Ran before landing on Xia Mu.

He smiled as he took the cup from Xia Mu's hands, and indifferently said, "Uncle, you're an elder. This way, you'll scare the younger generation away."

The two men's gazes met in the air, neither of them backing down. Everyone was well aware of what that meant.
