Mu Anan looked at the man in front of her quietly.

Although the man’s expression was cold, he said the warmest words in the world.

Mu Anan’s anxiety, panic, and uneasiness from Zong Zhengyu’s silence were instantly shattered by these two sentences.

They shattered into pieces, leaving nothing behind.

Mu Anan nodded her head vigorously. She did not know what to say, but she fell headfirst into Seventh Master’s chest.

She fell so hard that when her forehead hit Zong Zheng Yu’s chest, a loud thud could be heard.

Zong Zhengyu frowned helplessly, “Girl, your strength grows stronger when you grow up.”

Mu Anan did not say anything to express her protest.

The Seventh Master smiled even more helplessly.

He rubbed Mu Anan’s head hard.

She was like a cat with a little temper now. She was a little clingy and a little angry.

“Tell me about your friend,” said the Seventh Master.

Mu Anan paused for a moment before she realized that she had not told the Seventh Master about Xiao Jiu’s situation.

Mu Anan got up from the Seventh Master’s body. “We met each other while playing an online game. We even met in Liuli City. You know that.”

Zong Zhengyu thought for a moment and seemed to have some impression, “Why is she here?”

“Her family has high expectations of her but she doesn’t seem to be interested in studying. She just wants to play games. She probably has a conflict with her family because of this, so she wants to run away from home.”

“So, she ran away from home and comes to you to take refuge?” Zong Zhengyu played with the rubber band that Mu Anan gave him. His voice was indifferent.

Mu Anan nodded. “From what she said, I think she meant that if I don’t take her in, she will find another place. She’s just a little girl. I’m worried about her, so I think she can come over first. I’ll talk to her properly.”

“Just a little girl?”

Zong Zhengyu raised his eyebrows and repeated Mu Anan’s words, finding it very interesting.

A girl said someone else was a little girl.

Mu Anan and the Seventh Master looked at each other. She could see the teasing in his eyes and sounded a little displeased. “Isn’t she a girl?” I’m already doing my internship, and I’ll be graduating next year.”

“Yes, yes, yes. My girl has grown up,” the Seventh Master immediately agreed.

Mu Anan listened to him. But she felt that he was being so perfunctory.

She silently glared at him.

Zong Zhengyu pinched her little nose, “Not only has my girl grown up, but your temper has also grown up.”

Mu Anan touched her nose which had been pinched by Seventh Master. She looked a little dissatisfied, but she did not say anything. She just licked her lips subconsciously.

Her mouth was a little dry.

Mu Anan turned around and intended to open the mini-fridge in the car to get some water before Zong Zhengyu grabbed her wrist.

Then, the Seventh Master took out a small pink thermos flask from the other box, unscrewed it, and brought it to Mu Anan’s mouth.

Mu Anan took a whiff. It was red dates and wolfberry tea.

“Why are you drinking ice water? Don’t you know what day it is today?”

Mu Anan’s face turned red and hot after the Seventh Master said that.

It was now the middle of the month.

Mu Anan’s period usually came at the end of the month.

“Isn’t there still a few more days…” Mu Anan could not help but mutter softly as she drank the red dates and wolfberry tea

Zong Zhengyu leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. His voice was very calm. “Your period was brought forward two months ago. It was late last month. Let’s see this month. If the period is not on time, ask Dr. Gu to arrange for a Chinese medicine doctor to adjust it.”

“Was my period brought forward two months ago?” Mu Anan blurted out.

“Twice?” Zong Zhengyu frowned slightly.

Mu Anan was about to retort when her expression suddenly froze.

Only then did she react.

It had been two months since she had sex with the Seventh Master.

That time, she told the Seventh Master that she had her period to hide that matter.

In fact, she didn’t have her period two months ago.

She only heaved a sigh of relief when she had her period last month.

Later, she asked Dr. Gu about this. He said that it was a side effect of the birth control pill. If there were any problems this month, she would need to take medicine to adjust.

Of course, Mu Anan did not dare to say this.

She lowered her head and replied with a muffled ‘Okay’. Then, she didn’t say anything else and drank from the thermos flask.

Zong Zhengyu looked at the girl sitting upright, obediently drinking the red dates and wolfberry tea.

He felt a little complicated.

Zong Zhengyu couldn’t help but reach out and pinch the girl.

When she had something on her mind, she would do all kinds of cover-up actions to hide her secrets.

Mu Anan was drinking tea but she could feel the man’s gaze on her.

She slowly shifted her gaze to Zong Zhengyu who was leaning against the back of the chair.

“Just drink.”

“Okay.”

Mu Anan immediately looked away and drank the tea quietly.

The Seventh Master did not stop looking at her.

Mu Anan didn’t know what that look meant.

Did he see through her lies or something?

Mu Anan didn’t know. She was just a little uneasy and a little embarrassed, so she continued to drink the red dates and wolfberry tea that she never liked.

When the car arrived at Yuyuan Estate, the thermos flask in Mu Anan’s hand was already empty.

Zong Zhengyu took the thermos flask.

When he got out of the car, he turned around and carried Mu Anan out.

He carried her to the room upstairs.

Mu Anan had just laid down when she mumbled, “Seventh Master, should I arrange for that friend to stay in the small villa in the back east district?”

The rear east side was near the back door of the Yuyuan Estate.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the main entrance of the Yuyuan Estate, the back door was located in a more remote location. Other than the regular patrolling bodyguards and servants, few people usually approached it.

Mu Anan was worried that Xiao Jiu would feel uncomfortable. In the small villa, no one would disturb her except for the servants who took care of the daily affairs.

Zong Zhengyu scratched Mu Anan’s nose. “How many times have 1 told you? You can make your decisions in your house.”

“It’s also your house. Let’s decide together.” Mu Anan smiled.

“Have a good rest.”

Zong Zhengyu pulled the blanket over Mu Anan.

Mu Anan nodded.

Seventh Master didn’t say anything more. He watched the girl close her eyes before turning around and leaving the bedroom.

Mu Anan only opened her eyes when the door was slowly closed.

She pursed her lips slightly and thought about the look in the Seventh Master’s eyes in the car. She felt a little flustered.

Did the Seventh Master discover something?

Or perhaps, had she been exposed or something?

However, Mu Anan felt that she was overthinking things.

Maybe Seventh Master didn’t think much of it.

It was just that she had a secret in her heart for the time being. Because of her guilty conscience, she would appear to be on edge.

Just a look or a sentence would make her feel like she had been exposed.

Actually, it was nothing at all.

Mu Anan shook her head. She did not want to be in a daze like this. The more she thought about it, the more flustered she became.

Therefore, Mu Anan did not let herself be idle.

She took her phone and sent a message to Xiao Jiu, asking if she could make a call.

As soon as the message was sent, Xiao Jiu called.

Mu Anan picked it up. “Xiao Jiu, you can come over and stay with me. I’ve already made the arrangements.”

Mu Anan’s words were simple and direct.

However, Xiao Jiu, who also had a simple personality, hesitated for a moment. “Is it really okay for me to stay? Your man… Does he have any objections?”

“Hmm?”

“I’m worried that you’ll have a conflict with that man because of me. After all…”

Xiao Jiu spoke very softly after that. It was obvious that this matter was very awkward and she didn’t know how to say it.

Mu Anan understood what Xiao Jiu meant.

Mu Anan was a little playful. “By the way, you know that I’m such a person.. Don’t you despise me? Or do you look down on me?”
