Chapter 357 Are They Really Just Friends?
Mr. Sheng was afraid of the Xu family's background, so he agreed to Jing Yun and Sheng Minglan's marriage, but he didn't particularly trouble Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi, which made Sheng Xiao feel strange.
According to the old man's capricious temper, the first person he had to deal with after the Sheng Minglan incident was his Xiao Qi'er. However, until now, there has been no movement from the old man Sheng, which is a bit unreasonable.
Sheng Xiao asked Sheng's mother to pay special attention to Mr. Sheng's movements. However, except for the fact that the old man went out a few times without letting his family know, there was nothing unusual about him.
His birthday was in March, and Sheng Xiao was definitely on guard.
Of course, no one knew that the majestic prince was already preparing to shift his focus and plan to do something big with his father-in-law.
If the old man doesn't go too far, he won't tell anyone about this. But if the old man really uses other methods on Mu Qiqi, then he won't be able to control anything.
…
On the other side, the Xu family asked Xu Yihong to arrange a suitable position for Jingyun in the Xu family.
Xu Yihong also agreed that he should support his younger brother and let Jingyun know as soon as possible what aspects of the business Xu was involved in.
This was Xu Yihong's breakthrough in dealing with Jing Yun.
"Because your identity is unknown now, I can't put you in a too conspicuous position. I can only ask you to work at the grassroots level to understand some general information about the Xu family."
"Brother is thoughtful," Jing Yun said to Xu Yihong without leaving any trace.
To put it bluntly, Xu Yihong just wanted to use this method to anger Jing Yun. His dignified young master of the Xu family actually wanted to take the most junior position. This would be a humiliation for everyone. He just wanted to make Jing Yun Go to complain to Mr. and Mrs. Xu.
In this way, he can easily provoke conflicts between Jing Yun and his parents.
But...he thought wrong.
First, Jing Yun knew that he was the mastermind behind abandoning her in the past, so Jing Yun also knew that he would deliberately set a trap for him.
Secondly, Jingyun is not an impetuous person, and he believes that the most basic level of the Xu family is what he should be in contact with. Everything should be learned from the basics, so he does not think it is a humiliation.
After all, everyone in Jianchuan recognized his abilities and knew that he was not a wimp.
Therefore, Xu Yihong's move, in fact, ended up just shooting himself in the foot. However, he also had to speed up his pace to find out what the connection was between Xu Yihong and the uncle of the Xu family.
…
At this time, Lin Muan had just resumed school and was about to have another holiday. However, he did not want to return to the Lin family.
So, on the first night of the holiday, he called Lu Qianqian: "I'm on holiday, Xiaojiao, you have no sympathy at all. You know that I ran away from home and you still let me fend for myself."
"Otherwise?" Lu Qianqian was on the phone with Lin Mu'an while changing clothes, "I don't believe it, you really have nowhere to go."
"I used to have a lot of friends, but they were all fair-weather friends. If I go to stay now, they might not agree." Lin Muan answered Lu Qianqian.
"Who made you lose power?" Lu Qianqian also wanted to bite him through the phone, "Your vacation will only last for a month. And, are you really not going back to the Lin family to celebrate the New Year?"
"No," Lin Mu'an answered Lu Qianqian very firmly, "If I return to the Lin family, grandpa will come up with all kinds of traps and tricks to prevent me from returning to the police academy. I don't want to take any more risks."
"In this case, I will reluctantly accept you, young lady." Lu Qianqian pretended to sigh, "You can be my bodyguard for this month. Anyway, I am also in need of a sparring partner and a punching bag."
"Then where will I live? Your little boudoir?"
"The utility room is quite suitable for you, what do you think?"
Lu Qianqian drove to pick up Lin Muan, and the two left the gate of the police academy together.
Mr. Lin saw his grandson being taken away by Lu Qianqian, and his hands could not help but tremble: "These two people are still in contact... Since this beast wants to suffer, then I will help him."
Lin Mu'an always felt like there was air-conditioning blowing behind him, and he didn't know if he was being paranoid.
"To be honest, I just need a simple place to live. It's almost the same as the police academy and I'd be happy with it."
"Tsk, tsk, the dignified young master of the Lin family actually came to take advantage of a woman like me."
"Didn't I say that I would be your bodyguard?" Lin Mu'an has been training these days, but has achieved great results. "When I graduate from the police academy, you will be the biggest hero."
Lu Qianqian looked at Lin Muan with a sarcastic smile: "That would be wronging Young Master Lin."
In fact, Lu Qianqian prepared a small apartment for Lin Muan, a very simple apartment.
The two walked around the small apartment, and then sat in the living room drinking, just like last time in the hotel.
"As expected, you are my best friend..."
Lu Qianqian looked at Lin Muan. He had become stronger and his figure had improved. He now looked much more masculine.
"Then if you find a girlfriend you like in the future, how will you introduce my identity to her?" Lu Qianqian asked Lin Muan while holding the wine bottle.
Lin Mu'an reached out and hooked Lu Qianqian's neck, and then said half-drunk and half-awake: "Whoever doesn't accept that you are my good friend, I will break up with her!"
After Lu Qianqian heard this, her heart suddenly shook.
"Not many women would accept their boyfriends having a confidante."
"So what? I like it!"
Lin Mu'an's drinking capacity was actually very good, but he was outdone by the trained Lu Qianqian.
Therefore, when Lin Muan fell drunk on the ground, Lu Qianqian was still very conscious.
Looking at Lin Muan's sleeping face, Lu Qianqian lay on the table and whispered to Lin Muan: "Me too, if anyone dares to say anything about your existence, I will tell him to get out."
After saying that, she took the quilt from the bed and placed it on Lin Muan: "Good night, future Police Officer Lin!"
"Little Pepper..." Lin Muan laughed in his sleep, "I will protect you and my best friend for the rest of my life."
"Idiot." Lu Qianqian laughed and cursed, and then returned to her home late at night.
Because she didn't want to be caught and humiliated by Mr. Lin again...
After returning home, Mother Lu smelled the smell of alcohol on her body and advised her, "Qianqian, don't give up on yourself because of what happened in the past."
"Mom, where are you thinking? I was drinking with Lin Mu'an." Lu Qianqian quickly explained, "He has left the Lin family now and doesn't even have a place to live. He and I are friends, so we can't just sit back and watch. Besides, I also I took him in as my bodyguard."
"Are they really just friends?" Mother Lu confirmed with Lu Qianqian.
"Really just friends." Lu Qianqian nodded, "Lifelong... good friends."
