"I also want to be favored and pampered."

These words became a thorn in Mu Mian's heart, pricking her painfully.

When do you plan to get a divorce?

Mo Yu is very concerned about Mu Mian's love life.

Living with a strange man all the time isn't a solution.

"If it's about the 300,000, I can lend you the 300,000 first. You don't need to rush to pay it back. Just get a divorce first, so that things don't get complicated."

Mu Mian hesitated.

Her reaction gave Mo Yu a juicy piece of gossip: "You're not planning to divorce him, are you? Mianmian, don't be silly."

You are recognized as the most beautiful teacher in our school.

There's no one prettier than you in the entire city of Chengdu. To be honest, you'd be worthy of marrying the richest man in Chengdu, Mr. Gu.

Your 'husband' is too average in terms of conditions.

Mu Mian never imagined becoming the wife of a billionaire.

She just wants to find someone she likes, and someone who likes her back.

Her relationship with Gu Xiangque didn't start off well; it had some flaws. But after spending these past few days together, she found it very comfortable to be with Gu Xiangque. He was the kind of person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

When she's sad, he'll take the initiative to comfort her.

Even when faced with danger, he would risk his own safety to help her.

Gu Xiangque hasn't mentioned divorce recently. So Mu Mian feels that if Gu Xiangque doesn't bring it up, she's willing to live with him every day.

She wanted to try it.

Of course, if Gu Xiangque were to bring up divorce one day, she would leave gracefully and not let herself get caught up in it.

School in the afternoon.

Mu Mian went to the market to buy some groceries, preparing to cook at home.

She had just reached the entrance of the residential area.

"Mianmian, Mianmian, listen to Mommy..."

Mother Mu is here again.

She was carrying food she had prepared for Mu Mian, still warm. The thermos contained freshly made, piping hot soup for her daughter to drink to nourish her body; she had been getting thinner and thinner lately.

Mu Mian did not stop.

She didn't even look at her mother's face, afraid that she would soften her heart.

"Mianmian, Mom made your favorite pork rib soup. Listen to Mom, Mom has always loved you, I..."

Mother Mu reached out to grab Mu Mian's hand.

Mu Mian forcefully shook her off.

It wasn't that she was heartless, but she knew very well that her mother's repeated attempts to coax her weren't genuine; her mother's intentions were written all over her face, they were far too obvious.

Mu Mian found this overly obvious sense of purpose even more unacceptable.

Mu Mian's hand touched the thermos.

The thermos flask was knocked over.

The soup was all poured out, but the bottle opening wasn't facing Mu's mother because Mu's mother's hand had just grabbed the bottom of the moisturizing bottle; she tried to steady it but couldn't.

Instead, it was splashed at Mu Mian.

The scalding soup was poured all over the back of Mu Mian's left hand.

Her hand turned red instantly, startling Mu's mother. "Mianmian, are you alright? Mom didn't mean it, I..."

At this time.

Gu Xiangque just happened to return.

He saw this scene.

He walked quickly, reaching Mu Mian in just a few steps. "Are you alright?"

He bent down and picked Mu Mian up in a princess carry.

Mother Mu was about to chase after him, but she was frightened away by Gu Xiangque's cold eyes.

Gu Xiangque is really scary when he's not smiling.

In particular, the chilling aura emanating from him was enough to deter anyone from approaching. Even someone like Mother Mu, who had lived most of her life and had ample social experience, was equally afraid of Gu Xiangque.

At this time.

Mu's mother's phone rang.

It was her son calling from abroad on his honeymoon. "What's up, Da Bao?"

Mu had just finished fighting with his wife.

His wife was clinging to him.

She used her most seductive voice to threaten him, making him call Mother Mu and ask how things were going with the house.

Mu Gang asked, "Mom, did my sister sign it?"

signature?

They're practically turning their backs on each other, and they're still signing!

"Mom, my sister listens to you the most. Please say some nice things to her. We are family. She has gotten married again and her husband has a house. She won't need another house."

Talk to your sister more; she'll understand.

Mu Gang hung up the phone.

"How did it go, honey? Did your sister sign it?" Lin Wei asked.

"Don't worry, my sister listens to my mom the most, she'll definitely sign it."

Mu Gang flipped over and pinned his wife beneath him, "Continue—"

At Gu Xiangque's home.

He placed Mu Mian in the kitchen and turned on the tap to wash her hands.

Mu Mian's hands were very red.

"Why are you so careless?"

Mu Mian shook her head.

She's fine.

It's just a burn, it won't kill you.

After rinsing with cold water for ten minutes, Gu Xiangque had Mu Mian sit on the sofa. The tall man half-squatted down and used a cotton swab to apply medicine to Mu Mian.

The movement is very light.

Mu Mian didn't feel any pain, but she felt quite upset.

She had always tried her best to make her home better and more like a home, but in the end she became an outsider. This feeling was very painful and desperate, and her whole heart was cold.

The next half month.

Mu's mother brings Mu Mian meals every day.

Mu Mian didn't go home for lunch; she ate at school. Mu's mother delivered the food to the school security office and asked the security guard to give it to Mu Mian.

Mu Mian was stopped by the security guard several times. "Teacher Mu, your mother brought you lunch again. She is so good to you. Just now, there was a thunderstorm, and she was afraid that the food would get wet, so she kept it in her arms."

Not many people can do what she does; you're truly blessed.

Mu Mian laughed awkwardly.

She took the food.

The food was hot, but she felt it was ice cold.

This security guard only started working here this month.

If he had worked at the school for a few more years, he would have known that Mu's mother had never brought food to Mu Mian before, but had been bringing it more frequently in the last few days.

I go home every evening.

Mu Mian can also receive dinner delivered by her mother at the community security office.

Over time, Mu Mian became familiar with the community security guard. "Ms. Mu, did you and your mother have a fight?"

She looked quite distressed.

A mother bringing her daughter food every day is already showing great sincerity.

We're all family, and she's your own mother. Even the biggest misunderstanding should be resolved by now.

No matter what, she is still your mother.

There's a saying: "The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease; the child may wish to care for his parents, but they will no longer be there." Don't wait until you lose them to regret it, because by then it will be too late.

Oh, by the way, it seems your mother tripped and fell on her way here.

I saw that her knees were covered in blood.

I asked her if she was alright, and she shook her head and said it was nothing, but told me I had to make sure to get the food to her.

It looks pretty serious. Why don't you call and ask around?

Mu Mian didn't say anything and took the food her mother had brought home.

At this time.

Gu Xiangque has also returned.

He saw the food on the coffee table. "Your mother's here again?"
