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

Chapter 67: The Scheming Foster Sister in the Period Literature (7)

Lu Meng stood at the stairs, looked at Mu Zhou's closed door, then looked at Tan Zeyu with a bad expression, and understood what was going on.

It must be that Tan Zeyu criticized Mu Zhou harshly for something, and Mu Zhou couldn't stand it and cried out of grievance.

In fact, she had keenly noticed something was wrong when Mu Zhou came to Tan's house.

Tan Zeyu seems to be particularly harsh on Mu Zhou and always finds fault with him.

Right now, I probably can’t help but criticize secretly.

Lu Meng couldn't help but smile slightly.

Originally, she was a little unhappy because her eldest brother bought new clothes for Mu Zhou, but now after learning that Mu Zhou was scolded and cried by her second brother, for some reason, that unhappiness disappeared.

She suppressed her laughter, stepped forward and called out "Second Brother", and then sensibly comforted him:

"Brother, did Sister Mu Zhou make you angry? She is young, so don't argue with her. If she does anything wrong, you can tell me and I will help her correct it. Don't be angry, brother."

At the end of her speech, her voice became smaller and smaller, and even had a slight tremor.

Because the look Tan Zeyu gave her was sharp and cold, like a sword tempered with ice, piercing straight into the cracks in her bones.

Sensitively sensing the danger, she subconsciously took a step back, and suddenly regretted why she took the initiative to step forward.

In the past, Tan Zeyu would almost always restrain himself in front of his family, but now his aura was gloomy and terrifying, and he did not hide his cruelty and anger at all.

Lu Meng suddenly thought of what Zhang Baozhen had said, that among the three sons, Tan Zeyu was the most like his father.

Although he failed to inherit his father's legacy, he still possessed the decisiveness and strength to kill.

At this moment, Lu Meng truly understood the meaning of Zhang Baozhen's words.

Just as she turned around and wanted to run, Tan Zeyu's cold voice rang out:

"She didn't do anything wrong."

He corrected what Lu Meng had just said.

Lu Meng's heart was pounding, and he nodded stiffly: "I understand."

Seeing that he had no intention of continuing, she hurried back to her room.

On the other side, Mu Zhou returned to the room and quickly wiped away his tears, and the grievance on his face disappeared instantly.

She changed her clothes slowly.

After hearing what his mother Qi Yan said, Tan Zeyu will always be on guard, and whatever she does will seem to him to have ulterior motives.

So Mu Zhou originally planned to find an opportunity to make this matter clear.

Unexpectedly, she hit the jackpot today, so she just went along with it.

After changing her clothes, she told Zhang Baozhen, who had just gotten off work, that she had eaten too much at noon and was not hungry, and she was a little sleepy and could not go to bed early.

Zhang Baozhen knew that Mu Zhou went to Beicheng Hotel for dinner with her eldest son in the afternoon, so she didn't think much about it. After confirming that she was not sick with a fever, she let her rest early.

This is Tan Zeyu's bedroom.

He sat at the desk with an expressionless face, staring quietly in a certain direction, the haze and complexity in his eyes making it difficult to see clearly.

If you follow his gaze, you will find a handbag placed in the corner of the bookshelf, with a corner of goose yellow fabric faintly visible inside the bag.

The bright colors don't match the dark room.

That was a women's down jacket.

If other people in the Tan family saw it, they would find that this piece of clothing was exactly the same as the down jacket that Mu Zhou bought today.

Tan Zeyu also forgot why he bought the clothes in the first place.

He only remembered that when he saw Mu Zhou wearing the gray cotton coat he bought at the department store, he felt a surge of restlessness in his heart.

She shouldn't be overwhelmed by these dark colors, she should be bright and beautiful.

So the next day, he went to buy the clothes for some unknown reason.

Then hide.

When he realized that he had actually bought the clothes, he felt uncontrollable panic in his heart.

After that, every time I saw Mu Zhou, I would feel guilty for no reason.

So I didn't dare to take out the clothes.

But that goose yellow down jacket was finally worn by Mu Zhou.

But it was bought for her by her elder brother.

He irritably grabbed a tablecloth and threw it onto the handbag, completely covering the dress.

At dinner, everyone sat down, picked up their chopsticks and prepared to eat.

Tan Zeyu raised his eyes to look at the empty seat and said in a cold voice:

“Everyone is not here yet.”

"Xiao Mu isn't hungry and wants to rest early. I saw that her eyes were blue and she looked a little tired, so I let her sleep first."

Zhang Baozhen said.

Tan Zeyu was stunned. He suddenly thought of Mu Zhou's red eyes and the tears in his eyes that were so aggrieved that it made people feel distressed.

My heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and I could hardly breathe.

After eating only a few bites, he put down his chopsticks, left the table and returned to his room.

When passing by the second floor, he couldn't help but walk to Mu Zhou's door and stood there silently for a long time. In the end, he chose to leave without disturbing him.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, Zhang Baozhen's work is no longer so busy, and she starts taking her children around to buy New Year's goods.

No matter where he went, he basically brought Mu Zhou, Lu Meng and Tan Zeruo with him.

But today is a little different, today there is one more person who will meet you in person.

"It just so happens that the grain and oil we need to buy today are too heavy. Your second brother is here, so we can make good use of him."

Zhang Baozhen looked at the children sitting together, and her happiness was beyond words.

Tan Zeyu wore a black turtleneck sweater, revealing half of his neck, with the strong lines of his shoulders clearly visible.

He sat on the single sofa, listening to Zhang Baozhen's nagging with rare patience.

Mu Zhou sat far away from him, with his eyes lowered and no words spoken.

Since that day, Mu Zhou deliberately avoided Tan Zeyu.

In the past, she always had breakfast with the Tan family. Since that day on, she would get up half an hour earlier every day, eat something before the Tan family got up, and then go out for a morning run, so that she could avoid having breakfast with Tan Zeyu.

When Zhang Baozhen asked, Mu Zhou said that she was too weak and wanted to exercise. Zhang Baozhen felt sorry for her, but Tan Zhen agreed.

So no one said anything more about this matter.

Tan Zeyu only eats breakfast at home every day, and he will come back for dinner if he does not have any social engagements.

Mu Zhou couldn't avoid dinner. He would always eat very little and quickly, saying that he was not hungry and would be full after a few bites, and then leave the table quickly.

Within a few days, Tan Zeyu began to work overtime and socialize frequently. He almost never ate dinner at home, and sometimes even didn't eat breakfast at home. Later, he went directly to other places to discuss business, and each time he was away for more than half a month.

In this way, Mu Zhou could finally take a break, no longer having to get up early for a morning run, and he could also have a good dinner.

She didn't care whether Tan Zeyu noticed her deliberate avoidance and left so considerately. Anyway, she was very happy when he was not at home, and her favorability towards him fluctuated frequently.

However, as the Chinese New Year was approaching, Tan Zeyu could no longer continue his business trip and had to return home.

He went to the United States for business this time and brought a lot of things for his family, which was unprecedented.

"Second brother is so nice. Is he so nice to us because it's almost New Year's Day?"
