The Spoilt Wife’s Happy Life with the Commander - Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Little Indecisive Face
Lin Qing certainly trusted Mu Li, and her beautiful little face turned into a crying one. Then, she buried her face deep in her hands, thinking over the words that Mu Li had just said.

To Lin Qing, Mu Li’s words was like a fuse that set her memory on fire. While thinking of his words, Lin Qing also recalled some things.

She looked up and said to Mu Li, “I have come to think of it.”

Lin Qing had dark but shining pupils. Her serious and earnest gaze could make a person feel creepy with the illusion of being seen through.

Mu Li was having such an illusion right now. He narrowed his eyes and wondered: what was it that had come to her mind?

“I remember why I had come with you.”

Every single word of Lin Qing was uttered out very seriously.

Mu Li felt a bit relieved unnoticeably. He made a sound of acknowledgement as a sign for Lin Qing to continue.

Lin Qing grabbed her black hair and looked at Mu Li’s hands annoyingly. “It was because of your hands…”

Mu Li looked at his hands—they were not different from those of normal people. Then he looked at Lin Qing with a puzzled look.

“Your hands… are very beautiful.”

Lin Qing’s tone was placid and calm as usual. It was as if she wasn’t praising someone, but was just describing a fact.

Mu Li had been flattered by many people, but this time he didn’t know how to react to Lin Qing’s statement-like compliment.

“I was drunk yesterday.”

Lin Qing then went on to speak, still in a calm tone, “I’m sorry to have caused trouble to you. If you really mind it, I’ll go back to the hotel and tell the waiter that I’m not your girlfriend.”

“…” Was it necessary?

Mu Li didn’t say anything, so Lin Qing couldn’t help but look up to see him, and had an eye contact with his deep eyes.

No one could deny that Mu Li’s eyes were… very charming.

They were long, profound, mysterious, yet attractive.

But, was he looking at her?

To confirm whether Mu Li was looking at her, Lin Qing opened her eyes wider and stared at Mu Li.

For a moment, Mu Li felt frustrated—It turned out that not everyone lacked the gut to look at him directly. At least the woman in the bed dared to stare at him with the harmless and innocent eyes. Her gaze even made him feel uneasy.

Now Lin Qing finally realized that—Mu Li was indeed looking at her.

Somehow, perhaps because his eyes were so deep and charming, her heart beat so fast that she looked away and dared not look into Mu Li’s eyes again.

Mu Li was satisfied when he saw Lin Qing’s reaction. The doorbell rang suddenly as he was about to say something.

Lin Qing looked at Mu Li subconsciously. Mu Li frowned—who would have come to this place so early to see him?

“I’ll open the door.”

Before the sound of the doorbell stopped, Mu Li had been walking towards the door.

He did not have the habit of using a door viewer, and directly opened the door. He hesitated for a moment when he saw the people outside the door.

Outside the door stood two people: one was Chen Qudong, yesterday’s groom at the wedding ceremony, and the other was… a woman about fifty years old.

Why did these two people come for him? He was unfamiliar with the man and had never seen the woman before.

“Mr. Mu,” Chen Qudong spoke first, “I’m sorry to bother you so early.”

Mu Li narrowed his eyes. He still had no idea, and asked: “You wanted to see me?”

“Yes.”

Chen Qudong nodded politely and looked at that middle-aged woman. “This is Qingqing’s mother. Yesterday, after attending my wedding ceremony, Qingqing didn’t go home. Her mother was worried about her all night. She couldn’t think of any way out and so she called me this morning.

“There were too many guests at yesterday’s wedding ceremony. Since I drank too much, I had been unable to take care of Qingqing. I didn’t know where she went after the wedding ceremony, either. A moment ago, I went to the hotel to check the surveillance records and saw that… you took Qingqing away.”

Chen Qudong’s eyes suddenly sank. He looked at Mu Li and said: “That’s why I have come here with Qingqing’s mother. Qingqing… is she here with you?”
