Lin Muxi complained indignantly.
"What do you understand?"
"You don't understand at all!"
However, Ling Qianhe relented.
Able to bend and stretch, truly worthy of being Brother Qianhe.
"Fine, it's my fault, I don't understand."
"I'm the villain, unable to recognize good intentions. I don't understand your earnest efforts."
"You want to save Zhou Yuan'an's father, I'll help you. The mercenary company I control has partner hospitals, I'll send him there for treatment."
"You want to act, I support you."
"Is that okay?"
With such a good attitude, it was like a complete transformation, making Ling Qianhe seem like an entirely different person.
Lin Muxi, however, became puzzled.
What exactly had he understood? Did he think she was sacrificing for him, that she had paid a great price for him?
When had Brother Qianhe become so obedient?
Lin Muxi was extremely perplexed. She glanced at Ling Qianhe.
Utterly baffled.
Ling Qianhe patted her head, his voice magnetic and gentle.
"Don't worry."
He paused, "I'm here for everything."
...
As the plane landed, Ling Qianhe contacted staff in protective suits who carefully carried Zhou Di off the stretcher.
Lin Muxi's heart still felt heavy. Ling Qianhe made a phone call, a deep, dark light flashing in his eyes, and then he asked her.
"Feng Yuting doesn't know your secret, does he?"
Lin Muxi was still being stubborn.
"I don't have any secrets!"
Ling Qianhe chuckled lightly.
"Alright, alright, my wife has no secrets."
Lin Muxi couldn't do anything about him. His fingertips slowly pressed her shoulder, as if thinking of something extremely important. Ling Qianhe pondered for a moment, then leaned close to her ear and asked her earnestly.
"Then, my wife and I... shall we do some..."
"Things I've been thinking about for a long time?"
It was already evening.
In the night, his eyes were like dazzling fireworks under the neon lights, making it easy to fall into them.
Lin Muxi gritted her teeth.
"Don't even think about it—don't think so much!"
Ling Qianhe chuckled, his voice making it seem as if her heart had been instantly stirred.
"You want it too, clearly."
"I know, you've been lusting after me for a long time."
Lin Muxi glared at him.
"How could I be lusting after you? You're talking nonsense!"
Ling Qianhe let out an "oh."
"When I kissed you just now, you closed your eyes too, didn't you? I thought you were enjoying it too~"
His voice slightly perked up. Lin Muxi was so angry she wanted to jump, while Ling Qianhe rubbed her nose.
"Don't rush, there will be opportunities. I want you to be my girlfriend legitimately. No matter what happens, this time, I will protect you."
...
That night, Lin Muxi returned to the hotel with Ling Qianhe.
She had asked him to go first, but how could Ling Qianhe agree?
He was about to follow her upstairs.
As it happened, Lin Muxi encountered Yang Weiyang downstairs.
She had no idea what had happened, only that she innocently ran to Lin Muxi and hugged her.
"Xiao Ci?"
"Where were you just now? Wuwuwu, I had a nightmare, it was so scary. Xiao Ci, stay with me tonight, I want to sleep holding you."
She acted spoiled, her voice soft.
Ling Qianhe glanced at her.
"Such a grown-up, and you still need someone to sleep with?"
Yang Weiyang looked at Ling Qianhe opposite her, puzzled.
"Why not? Xiao Ci and I are in the same group. We went to activities together, and she and I live together."
"She's so fragrant and soft...呸呸呸, soft and cute, soft and cute!"
Ling Qianhe's gaze slowly changed. He stared at Yang Weiyang coldly, and after a long time, he reluctantly nodded.
"Then you two sleep!"
He turned and walked away, as if someone was hurrying him.
Yang Weiyang had no idea what she had done wrong to offend Ling Qianhe.
"Xiao Ci, did I do something to upset Tutor Ling?"
"Should I apologize to him?"
Lin Muxi coughed twice. She raised her hand, touched her chin, and after pondering for a moment, Lin Muxi finally spoke.
"Apologize for what?"
"He's just being passive-aggressive. We don't need to pay attention to him."
Yang Weiyang was still a little doubtful.
"Is that okay? Will there be any trouble?"
Lin Muxi nodded. "Don't worry, he's not angry. I've collaborated with him several times, and I understand his temper well. He won't get angry. Let's go, we're going upstairs."
Of course, she knew why Ling Qianhe was so angry.
It was just that he wanted to take the opportunity to go to her room, but was intercepted by Yang Weiyang, hence the passive-aggression.
She understood perfectly!
Only then did Yang Weiyang feel at ease. She followed Lin Muxi upstairs and lay on Lin Muxi's bed, sighing endlessly as she looked at her.
"Xiao Ci, why are you so beautiful, wuwuwu!"
"You must be the ceiling of celebrity looks!"
She showered Lin Muxi with compliments, but Lin Muxi saw through her in an instant.
"Do you need something from me?"
Yang Weiyang chuckled, her big eyes sparkling as she looked at her.
"Brother Long said that the investment for his new movie was from your mom."
"Xiao Ci, you are truly a genuine rich young lady!"
She beat around the bush, then got to the point.
"Xiao Ci, did Brother Long ever tell you that he mortgaged his house for the movie before?"
"I wanted to ask Xiao Ci if you could help redeem the house, because it holds many memories for Brother Long and Sister-in-law Long."
"Of course, I'm not asking Xiao Ci to pay for it for free. Sister-in-law Long called me herself and said she would find a way to repay you later."
"She and Brother Long have poured all their resources into making this movie. She's afraid that after mortgaging the house, it will be auctioned off... and fall into someone else's hands, ruining the home she's put so much effort into. That's why she hopes you can buy it first, and she'll repay you when she has the money."
Lin Muxi looked at Yang Weiyang. Dafeng Novel Network.
She hadn't expected her to be so enthusiastic.
"Did Sister-in-law Long ask you to find me?"
Yang Weiyang shook her head.
"No, Brother Long told her not to trouble any friends she knows. He forbade her from borrowing money from friends. I only heard her mention that the house might be auctioned off, so I thought of you, Xiao Ci... If it's too difficult for you, I'll think of other ways."
Wu Minlong and his wife were both good people.
And Wu Minlong's movie was about to become a huge hit.
At this critical juncture, there was an opportunity to offer help in need.
Lin Muxi had no reason not to offer it.
So she immediately agreed.
"Okay. I can help buy the house first."
Yang Weiyang immediately hugged her excitedly.
"I knew it... But Xiao Ci, you have to think about it. If the movie fails... although they are not people who won't repay their debts, it will take a long time to redeem the house."
"And it's an old house, not easy to resell..."
Lin Muxi, however, said.
"Don't worry, I know."
"I have confidence in Brother Long's project."
An eight-star blockbuster series movie.
Globally, it's a top-tier masterpiece that's rarely seen once a year—of course she had confidence!
