Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Shang Henian came to teach Mu Zhou a lesson.

But at this moment, he felt he couldn't stay any longer, and before leaving, he didn't forget to give a warning:

"If those photos get out, I'll make sure you suffer a terrible death, and..."

He thought of something, and his ears inexplicably burned; his tone became even more nasty:

"You're not allowed to tell anyone that you dripped candle wax on me! Do you hear me?"

Mu Zhou nodded silently.

Shang Henian left in a hurry again.

Mu Zhou was about to leave when he walked around a large tree and found a man sitting on a bamboo chair behind it.

The man had a rather cold and aloof demeanor, yet the way he sat there with a slightly relaxed posture, holding a book and looking down at it, gave him an air of otherworldly wisdom.

Mu Zhou paused for a moment, then greeted him as usual:

"Little uncle."

The curve of her lips still revealed a hint of shyness and restraint.

But Lu Lin, who had just overheard her conversation with Shang Henian, was unlikely to be fooled by her appearance again.

He looked up and carefully examined Mu Zhou.

A delicate, fair face, an innocent and pure aura, coupled with a seemingly dull and taciturn personality.

She doesn't seem like the kind of girl who can be so adventurous.

But the conversation between the two of them had actually reached his ears.

Lu Lin couldn't help but chuckle softly.

The girl has a really good mental fortitude.

Even after having their secret overheard, they remain so calm and composed.

Mu Zhou showed no emotion when he heard the notification that his favorability rating had dropped to 0.

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. Since Mu Zhou took the initiative to greet him, Lu Lin naturally wouldn't give a junior like her a hard time.

Besides, what happens between her and Shang Henian is none of his business.

He nodded slightly, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Mu Zhou did not linger any longer.

"Uncle, I'm going back now."

She left without looking back.

Having held a high position for many years, Lu Lin had seen all sorts of people.

The naive and ignorant, the dull and boring, the cunning and ambitious, the eloquent and so on.

Everyone who gets close to him is playing a certain role in order to gain his pity and favor.

He was already numb.

So Mu Zhou decided to give him a little thrill.

Lu Lin ate dinner at a restaurant.

Grandpa Shang was clearly in a good mood today, and couldn't help but say a few more words at the dinner table.

Shang Henian ate silently to the side, his face extremely pale.

She would occasionally glance in Mu Zhou's direction, glaring fiercely at her where her grandfather couldn't see.

Mu Zhou kept his eyes straight ahead, focusing solely on eating.

After seeing Lu Lin off, Shang Henian's expression completely changed.

He hadn't seen Lu Lin for many years, and his memory of Lu Lin was still that of his former imposing figure. He was somewhat intimidated by him, so he kept his emotions in check.

As soon as the person left, he immediately said to his grandfather:

"Grandpa, please stop trying to match me up with Mu Zhou. I'm not interested in her. I have someone I like."

Upon hearing this, Grandpa immediately puffed out his beard and glared.

"Who do you like? That school beauty? Didn't I hear you didn't even confess?"

He had heard that his grandson was planning to publicly express his love, but it ultimately came to nothing, and he thought that his grandson was just deliberately spreading the news to defy his family.

When it came to confessing his feelings, Shang Henian's face darkened again.

He couldn't confess his feelings as planned because Mu Zhou kidnapped him to a small hotel and did something disgusting to him.

Thinking about what happened at the small hotel, he felt a surge of irritation in his chest.

He didn't want to think about it anymore, so he stormed off to find someone to drink with.

Grandpa Shang shook his head, also somewhat giving up on his thoughts.

He summoned Mu Zhou to the study.

Suddenly, he mentioned that his former good friend also had a grandson, who was Mu Zhou's senior from university and is now doing an internship.

I'll be going back to school tomorrow.

After a long, cryptic conversation, Mu Zhou understood Grandpa Shang's intentions.

So he took the initiative to say:

"Grandpa, since my senior's major is the same as mine, I'll ask him to have dinner with me tomorrow and learn from him."

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Shang smiled and said with satisfaction:

"You young people should get to know more people; once you're familiar with them, you'll find that there are plenty of fish in the sea."

Mu Zhou nodded in agreement:

"I understand, Grandpa."

The next afternoon, Mu Zhou had no classes, so he took the initiative to send a message to the senior student his grandfather had recommended.

The two arranged to meet at the cafeteria.

The boy was handsome and had a charming smile.

I don't know if Grandpa did it on purpose, but in any case, Senior and Shang Henian are the same type of boy.

They all had dark skin, were tall and strong, and looked very reassuring.

Mu Zhou was deeply moved by Grandpa Shang's good intentions.

The boy's name was Jiang Xing, and his personality was just like Shang Henian's—very cheerful and talkative.

When the conversation turned to the school's forum that afternoon, he said:

"By the way, do you know the guest at the symposium the school invited this afternoon? Lu Lin, he's the second-in-command of our unit. He's so young to have reached this position, his future looks bleak."

Jiang Xing seemed to admire Lu Lin very much.

Mu Zhou simply smiled and did not offer any opinion.

After finishing their meal, the two went for a stroll around the school.

What a coincidence! I ran into an acquaintance as soon as I got near the pavilion.

Several young men and women were sitting together, laughing and joking. As Mu Zhou approached, one of them said:

"Isn't this the child bride who's always following Shang Henian around?"

"Shang Henian isn't right next to us, have they changed targets?"

“I recognize this man; he’s the youngest son of the Jiang family.”

"No, I have to send a message to Brother Nian. My little wife is about to be stolen away."

Several people were chattering away, taking photos without any attempt to hide it.

Mu Zhou tugged at Jiang Xing's sleeve speechlessly:

"Let's change places."

Jiang Xing's heart raced as he watched Mu Zhou being affectionate towards him.

He nodded hastily:

"Okay, anywhere is fine."

Not long after, Mu Zhou received a message from Shang Henian.

[You found a body double so quickly?]

The accompanying photo was taken by his friend without his knowledge.

It was just as Mu Zhou was tugging at Jiang Xing's sleeve.

The two appeared to be very close.

Mu Zhou did not reply.

Shang Henian quickly sent another message.

Where is it?

Don't overthink it. Grandpa told me to oversee things, and I also want to get rid of you as soon as possible so I can relax.

Mu Zhou thought for a moment and then gave the location of a restaurant.

She then put away her phone and said to Jiang Xingdao:

"You treat me to lunch at the cafeteria, and I'll treat you to afternoon tea, okay?"

Jiang Xing certainly wouldn't refuse.

This disguised blind date was something he had asked for in the first place.

He spotted Mu Zhou at a glance when he visited merchants to offer New Year's greetings a few years ago.

He had only heard that Mu Zhou was Shang Henian's "child bride" and that she was supposedly madly in love with him, which was why he hadn't revealed his feelings.

Later, when Grandpa talked about the Shang family, he learned that Shang Henian didn't like Mu Zhou. Grandpa Shang was planning to find Mu Zhou a blind date, so he volunteered.

He cherished this opportunity.

Before coming, I even recalled Shang Henian's style of dress and tried to imitate him.

He didn't feel ashamed about it.

When pursuing a girl, you naturally have to put in the effort to make her happy.
