Qiao Dongnuan was dumbfounded. What did he mean by disappointment?
Should she thank him again?
"Thank you, Uncle Tan, I …"
She wanted to say something, but Tan Mucheng's face was still as cold as ever. There was a hint of anger emanating from him, which made Qiao Dongnuan feel inexplicable.
She was carried back to Tan Mucheng's room, and a thin blanket was immediately placed over her body, wrapping her up tightly. Tan Yiyi followed behind, bringing along a doctor to examine Qiao Dongnuan. Tan Mucheng sat opposite her the entire time, his deep, dark eyes fixated on her slightly pale and delicate little face.
In the room, even Tan Yiyi could feel the chilly aura emanating from Little Uncle, filling the room.
Tan Yiyi did not think much of it. What happened today was her fault anyway, so she immediately apologized after the doctor left.
"I'm sorry, Nuannuan. I shouldn't have left you alone. I should have noticed you. It's my fault …"
"Tan Yiyi!"
Before Qiao Dongnuan could say anything, Tan Mucheng spoke coldly. His deep, dark eyes swept over, causing Tan Yiyi's heart to tremble involuntarily, and she shrank back a little.
"It's a human life!"
In the end, Tan Mucheng didn't say anything harsh. But these four words were already very heavy.
Tan Yiyi's eyes reddened. She looked at Qiao Dongnuan and suddenly pounced on her, sobbing.
"I'm sorry, Nuannuan. I won't be so careless in the future …"
Qiao Dongnuan was frightened, and her voice was trembling slightly. "Uncle Tan, it's not Yiyi's fault. No one would have thought that someone would play a prank on her. Please don't be angry. I'm sorry for scaring Uncle Tan. "
Qiao Dongnuan's apology did not make Tan Mucheng's anger dissipate. Instead, when she met his darkened gaze, she pursed her lips and did not dare to say another word.
Tan Mucheng took a deep look at her, got up, took the cigarettes on the table, and left.
After Tan Mucheng left, Tan Yiyi wiped her tears and patted her chest.
"I was scared to death. Nuannuan, I know I was wrong. Uncle looks like he's going to eat me. If I didn't know better, I would have thought that you were his niece. "
"It's okay, it's okay. It's really not your fault. I was careless. But after this, I've decided that I will learn how to swim."
"Alright, I'll teach you."
After chatting for a while, Tan Yiyi asked Qiao Dongnuan to rest first. She still had to go out and settle the score with the rascal.
After surviving a disaster, Qiao Dongnuan was actually still afraid. But she did not show it in front of Tan Yiyi.
Now that she was alone, she sat up, and the thin blanket slid down to her waist. Then, she pinched her earlobes with both hands and mumbled something.
"Nuannuan is not afraid. Nuannuan is not afraid …"
She repeated it a few times, as though it could comfort herself. When she looked up, she saw Tan Mucheng standing by the wall. His body was leaning against it, and he was still wearing the same outfit he had used to save her. He was completely drenched, and he had not had the time to change.
But even so, it could not hide his noble aura, and he was mature and charming.
Qiao Dongnuan blinked her big eyes. In an instant, her little face flushed red. She quickly put down her fingers, but because she was still in a daze, she did not notice that the tiny piece of cloth on her chest could not hide her fair skin …
It was only when Tan Mucheng's dark eyes darkened that Qiao Dongnuan realized where he was looking at that Qiao Dongnuan was staring at. She lowered her head and hurriedly wrapped the thin blanket around herself. Her little face looked as though it was dripping blood.
"Uncle Tan, you … Is there anything else?"
"This is my room."
"Ah …" Qiao Dongnuan snapped back to her senses. She wanted to get off the bed and leave. Before she could do so, Tan Mucheng quickly walked over. His large hand pressed on her shoulder, and his body leaned forward.
"Tan … Uncle Tan!"
Qiao Dongnuan did not know what to do. She blinked her eyes, and her thick and long eyelashes fluttered. She looked so helpless and seductive at the same time.
Tan Mucheng's dark eyes flashed sharply. He got up and said, "Lie down!"
After that, he took some clothes from the wardrobe and quickly walked into the bathroom.
When Qiao Dongnuan heard the sound coming from the bathroom, she turned her head slightly. The man's blurry figure was reflected in the frosted glass.
Ahhhhh …
She screamed in her heart. Embarrassed and embarrassed, she hurriedly took this opportunity to wrap the blanket around herself and leave.
She walked away with her head lowered, berating herself in her heart. Qiao Dongnuan, don't think about it anymore. You're being disrespectful to your elders. You shouldn't have done that.
When Qiao Dongnuan returned to the room, she quickly changed her clothes and returned to her natural state. She expelled the image from her mind.
Tan Yiyi dragged the boy who had pranked her earlier.
"Apologize! Song Ziqi, you dare to do it, but you don't dare to admit it? "
Song Ziqi looked a little embarrassed. He stumbled a little after being pushed by Tan Yiyi. He wanted to throw a tantrum, but when he saw Qiao Dongnuan's face, he restrained himself.
The corners of his lips twitched awkwardly on his handsome face, but his ears were red.
"Erm … I'm sorry! I didn't know that you don't know how to swim … "
"It's alright, it's all a misunderstanding."
Qiao Dongnuan smiled, but Song Ziqi's ears turned even redder.
Tan Yiyi sensed something and suddenly punched Song Ziqi. "Song Ziqi, are you serious? Why are you acting so innocent? Is it because in front of our Nuannuan, you — "
"Tan Yiyi, shut up."
Song Ziqi seemed to be angry. He looked at the quiet and beautiful Qiao Dongnuan again, quickly looked away, and glared at Tan Yiyi fiercely, with a warning look in his eyes.
Tan Yiyi laughed happily, while Song Ziqi looked at Qiao Dongnuan and pretended to be serious.
"I'm sorry this time. Let's add each other on WeChat, and I'll ask you out for dinner in the future to apologize to you."
"No!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Tan Yiyi had betrayed Qiao Dongnuan and told Song Ziqi her number. Then she said with a smile, "That's settled. Song Ziqi, I tell you, Nuannuan is my sister. We can have dinner together, but if you dare to bully her again, I'll kill you."
"Come on, am I that kind of person? That's it. "
Song Ziqi looked at Dong Nuan. "Have a rest and wait for me to contact you!"
At dinner in the evening, Song Ziqi had already surrounded Tan Yiyi and Qiao Dongnuan. Seeing this scene from a distance, Lu Jingli smiled meaningfully and looked at Tan Mucheng, who had been on the phone.
Lu Jingli pouted silently. Tan Mucheng looked at him and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Seeing Tan Mucheng's reaction, Lu Jingli smiled more and more interestingly.
Song Ziqi said something on the other side, and Qiao Dongnuan laughed heartily. Her laughter was crisp and pleasant like a silver bell. Tan Mucheng put his free hand on his thigh and rubbed it thoughtfully.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingli leaned over, lowered his voice, and asked, "Brother Cheng, that girl is looking for people. Did you or did you not … "
Tan Mucheng was indifferent and silent. He glanced over there again, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Lu Jingli chuckled and didn't ask further. Instead, he said loudly, "Yiyi, Ziqi, come and join us. Your Big Brother Lu's side is very lonely. "
Tan Yiyi rolled her eyes. Qiao Dongnuan looked over, and her beautiful pupils quickly narrowed, and then she looked away.
Song Ziqi whispered, "Nuannuan, are you afraid of Uncle Tan? Right? I was a little scared when I saw him. Aside from being an elder, Uncle Tan had the ability to make people shiver in fear. But don't be nervous. I'm here. "
The intimacy between the two fell into Tan Mucheng's eyes. There was a sharp glint in his dark eyes.
The three of them walked over and sat down. Song Ziqi obviously wanted to arrange for Qiao Dongnuan to sit next to him, but Lu Jingli deliberately separated the two of them and pushed Qiao Dongnuan to sit next to Tan Mucheng.
"Uncle Lu, this is my friend Qiao Dongnuan. Nuannuan, this is my Uncle Lu."
Tan Yiyi thought that the two of them didn't know each other, so she introduced them.
"What Uncle Lu? Call me Brother, right, Miss Joe? "
Qiao Dongnuan twitched the corner of her mouth and smiled awkwardly. "Uncle Lu!"
Lu Jingli said, "… Hehe! Uncle? Actually, it's quite interesting to call him Uncle. Isn't that right, Brother Cheng? "
Only he and Tan Mucheng understood Lu Jingli's meaning.
Tan Yiyi didn't notice anything and said directly, "I'm an uncle, Uncle Lu. Don't pretend to be young. You can just fool the girls outside, no one here will fall for it."
"This girl, how can you say that? Your Brother Lu is the nation's husband … "
"Hmph, that's because my uncle keeps a low profile. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a chance."
Lu Jingli didn't deny it. He chuckled and looked at Tan Mucheng. Then, his lips suddenly curled into an evil smile.
"If it's Brother Cheng, I can definitely give way. No matter if it's a mature girl or a young girl, they all want to marry my Brother Cheng. Don't you think so, Miss Joe? "
"Huh?"
Qiao Dongnuan was called out. She was stunned and then nodded dumbly.
"Haha … So, Miss Joe also wants to marry Brother Cheng?"
"…"
Everyone was stunned. Qiao Dongnuan was the first to react. She blushed and shook her head like a rattle drum.
"No, no, no, Uncle Lu, don't joke around. Uncle Tan is an elder …"
"Uncle Lu, are you out of your mind? What are you saying? There should be a limit to jokes. "
Tan Yiyi reprimanded in dissatisfaction. Lu Jingli glanced at Tan Mucheng.
Tan Mucheng gave him a cold warning look. Lu Jingli smiled and shrugged.
"Alright, alright. I won't joke around. Miss Joe, don't mind it. But, Miss Joe is so beautiful. She must have many suitors, right? "
"No …"
"Uncle Lu!" Tan Yiyi was puzzled. She looked a little angry. "What do you mean? Why do you keep staring at Nuannuan? Don't use your flirtatious personality on our Nuannuan. She's my sister, a junior. Don't be disrespectful! "
Lu Jingli was speechless. "Disrespectful?"
