Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

Mu Yanxin returned to Nanyuan. She had a fulfilling day and was all smiles.

Feng Yaqin, who was going through menopause, couldn't stand seeing others happier than her, and naturally she couldn't stand seeing Mu Yanxin happy. She was already unhappy because she hadn't seen Mu Yanxin for half a day.

She specifically requested Fu Kee Truffle Lava Pastry, with the additional requirement that she walk there and back.

Fu Kee's dim sum is notoriously hard to buy; whether I can actually get any is another matter, but if I walk there and back, it'll be tomorrow.

It's obvious that Feng Yaqin is deliberately trying to mess with her.

"What? No way?" Feng Yaqin's tone was forceful, leaving no room for her to refuse.

"Okay, Mom, I'll go right now!"

She was aware of her situation and knew she had no right to say no.

As autumn arrived, the wind no longer carried the heat of summer, but instead felt cool. Mu Yanxin stepped out of the cold mansion and rubbed her arms with her arms crossed.

Song Renshou, who had been waiting in the distance all day, was now hungry and tired. He cursed under his breath and turned to leave when he caught a glimpse of the woman coming out of the Leng residence.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Mu Yanxin.

The cold house was surrounded by surveillance cameras, and he followed behind.

As Mu Yanxin walked, a chill ran down her spine, and a wave of fear washed over her. She instinctively felt someone was following her, and when she turned around sharply, there was no one behind her.

The feeling of fear did not disappear when I turned around; on the contrary, it became even stronger.

People tend to magnify their fear of the unknown, becoming more and more afraid the more they think about it, and the faster they rush when they are more afraid.

Finally, she almost started jogging.

She jogged a few steps, her foot hovering in mid-air, her face pale with terror, as if she were about to step into an abyss.

She stumbled backward, but the momentum of her body carried her forward, and she fell to the ground.

Song Renshou approached step by step, "You brat, why are you running?"

The ugly mouth opened and closed, and the nightmare returned.

Mu Yanxin covered her ears with both hands, her voice trembling with fear, "You, you don't come any closer!"

She curled up on the ground, her eyes closed, not daring to look at the man, pleading, "Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"

The man didn't stop because of her pleas. "You little brat, you're so heartless! Not only did your man almost beat me to death, but you also changed your phone so I couldn't contact you. You're really naughty!"

Mu Yanxin kept shaking her head, "I didn't, I didn't."

"It's alright!" As he spoke, Song Renshou squatted down in front of Mu Yanxin, looking all righteous. "Your uncle won't blame you, as long as you listen to me."

Mu Yanxin shrank back as tightly as she could. In her desperation, she thought of Leng Tingye. "Don't touch me! This time, he won't let you get away with this!"

With no other options, she had no choice but to take advantage of the situation!

Unexpectedly, Song Renshou didn't place his hand on her. His body, still aching from the beating, stubbornly replied, "Who's afraid of him?"

The man said he wasn't afraid, but his expression betrayed him; he was scared.

Mu Yanxin found a chance to fight back. After an internal struggle, she decided to stop running away. She was no longer that seventeen-year-old girl.

What you have to face eventually will have to be faced; running away won't solve anything.

He decided to use Leng Tingye's name, asking, "Do you know who the person who hit you is?"

"Who is it?"

"Leng Tingye!"

Song Renshou's face turned ashen, his legs went weak and he swayed. "That ruthless fourth young master of the Leng family, the one who kills without shedding blood, Master Ye?"

His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. "Who are you kidding?"

However, seeing that Mu Yanxin showed no fear on her face and looked like she had a powerful backer, it seemed that only that kind of relationship was most likely the case.

He lost his confidence, thinking that if he hadn't been quick-witted last time, he would have been beaten to death long ago.

He didn't want to lose his life because of this.

He coughed twice and said, "I've changed my mind, I won't touch you!"

Clearly, he had no intention of giving up.

"Now that you've hooked up with the Leng family, you're a true young mistress of a wealthy family. As far as I know, you're impersonating Mu Yanxin. If the Leng family finds out you're an imposter, do you think they'll still want you to marry into the Leng family? I wonder if that 'wild man' knows your true identity."

The threatening tone made Mu Yanxin panic again, but she couldn't show it. She pushed herself up with her hands and asked directly, "How much do you want?"

Song Renshou smiled hypocritically, "Is that the kind of person you see my uncle as?"

Mu Yanxin dusted off her hands, forcing herself to remain calm, "If you don't expose me directly, besides wanting to take advantage of my body, don't you also want to make some money?"

Song Renshou held up his index finger, "Ten million."

"No!" Mu Yanxin refused. "I haven't married into the Leng family yet. The Leng family wouldn't give me so much money for no reason."

Song Renshou smiled slyly, "Of course I know the Leng family can't possibly give you that much money, but as Leng Tingye's woman, you shouldn't be unable to come up with ten million, right?"

These words left Mu Yanxin with no way out. If she accepted, where would she get ten million?

The Leng family? The Mu family? Neither is possible!

If she says she can't produce it, it would be a slap in the face, admitting that she has no relationship with Leng Tingye.

Song Renshou tried to find some clues in Mu Yanxin's expression, "Could it be that you are lying?"

"No!" Mu Yanxin dispelled his doubts.

"That's good. Three days from now!"

Mu Yanxin didn't know when she arrived at Fu Ji, but she didn't get back until 7 a.m. the next day. She returned to Xiyuan in a disheveled state.

Her heels were blistered and bleeding, some of them already broken. In the yoga room, Feng Yaqin was practicing yoga following a video.

Mu Yanxin stood at the door and greeted them, following the rules set for her by Feng Yaqin.

Feng Yaqin didn't stop what she was doing. She glanced at her out of the corner of her eye and said irritably, "Why are you only getting back now? You're really useless. You can't even do this little thing right."

Mu Yanxin lowered her head and did not explain.

"What are you still standing there for?" Feng Yaqin glared at her.

As soon as Mu Yanxin turned to leave, Feng Yaqin's disdainful tone came from behind her, "What a spoilsport so early in the morning."

The cold and harsh words chilled Mu Yanxin to the bone; this was the wealthy family she had tried so hard to marry into.

Feng Yaqin doesn't treat her like a human being at all. She's already like this even before she's married into the family; if she were to marry into it...

She felt she could see her future clearly at a glance.

Back in the room, Leng Changqing was still in bed, so Mu Yanxin went straight into the bathroom.

At this hour, Feng Yaqin couldn't let her catch up on sleep; she had to make breakfast.

As she took off her clothes, a business card fell out of her pocket. Mu Yanxin remembered that it was given to her by a woman when she passed by a club on her way to buy snacks.

At the time, she was confused and probably forgot to throw it away. Mu Yanxin bent down to pick it up and was about to throw it into the trash can when she was attracted by the words on it.

The business card reads: Earning millions a day is not a dream; the next person to become rich could be you!

It was just a low-level scam, and she casually tossed it into the trash can.
