Chapter 24: 024. Just a piece of clothing, does he have to go that far?
Holding the candy Qingqing gave him in one hand, and shaking a finger of Nan Wan with the other, "Auntie, can I invite Qingqing to try the chicken wings you made?"
Mom said good things should be shared with friends, and since he ate the candy Qingqing gave him, he should give something in return.
Upon hearing about food, little Mu Qingqing’s eyes instantly lit up, blinking her round eyes, she pleaded adorably, "Auntie, Jiashu said the chicken wings you made are delicious, can I just have a taste?"
Her eyes were full of expectation, and her tone was quite coquettish.
In such a situation, Nan Wan had no idea how to refuse.
Nan Wan knew herself well, she really had no way to resist such a soft and cute little darling.
In fact, if it were just this chubby little fellow, she would have no problem, but... she also brought a tall man, over six feet tall.
Someone who she had already offended twice in a row, she didn’t want to offend a third time.
Facing the child, Nan Wan really couldn’t force a fake smile, she could only be as gentle as possible, "Your uncle is very busy, next time auntie..."
"Not busy."
Before she could finish her sentence, a low voice cut in, blocking all the words she had left unsaid.
"Yay!"
The two kids instantly cheered up, their faces beaming with bright smiles, chirping about what games to play later.
The smile on Nan Wan’s lips froze in the air, her chest felt stuffy like something was blocking it.
As the man approached, his shoes, the black leather shoes, the suit pants wrapping around long legs... slowly entered Nan Wan’s field of vision.
A crisp mint scent quietly sneaked into her nose, accompanied by a faint hint of tobacco.
Then, a low voice echoed in her ear, "If I remember correctly, you still owe me something, you might as well return it to me now."
Nan Wan was completely unresponsive, looking up, dazed at the man’s handsome face, "Wha... what?"
Mu Jin Huan looked at the woman in front of him, her long and curled eyelashes fluttering, her bright and clear apricot eyes, he could clearly see his own reflection.
The initial smell of disinfectant was replaced by a sweet orange blossom scent, stirring the most primal sensations in his heart.
"Forgot so soon," his thin lips curled into a faint arch, his dark eyes staring with a teasing expression, voice very low, "When you deliberately tried to make me compensate back then, you weren’t like this."
Upon hearing the man’s words, Nan Wan suddenly remembered something, shifted her gaze, and retreated half a step, discreetly widening the distance between them.
That day, she had been drinking and acted without thinking.
What he mentioned... the thing she owed him, was probably the suit jacket bitten by Barton.
Just a piece of clothing, was it that important?
Nan Wan pressed her lips together, saying with an unchanged expression, "I threw it away."
Actually... she hadn’t, it was washed thoroughly and hung neatly in her apartment.
"Threw it away..." the man savored these words, a low, slow laugh escaping from his throat, his deep, dark eyes filled with interest, "How do you plan to compensate?"
