Chapter 2072: Chapter 478: Late Period (3 Updates)
Mu Wan and Qin Mu were together, and they were practically glued to each other all the time.
Sometimes, Qin Mu would specifically drive to Yuncheng University to eat with Mu Wan.
Mu Wan would also go to the company and wait for Qin Mu to finish his meeting so they could eat together.
The two of them were endlessly affectionate...
Mu Wan thought of every possible way to get out of Qin Mu’s line of sight, and in the end, this was the only thing she came up with.
West Mountain?
Qin Mu’s dark eyes knit slightly...
West Mountain was already at the edge of Yuncheng City, at the border between Yuncheng City and Southeast City.
"Why do you have to go so far just to sketch?"
"Because the view is better over there. I always draw figure sketches out of habit, and I want to draw something different."
Mu Wan rarely lied, so sometimes she couldn’t help lowering her head as she spoke.
Hearing this, Qin Mu narrowed his dark eyes, a deep, shadowy glint flashing in their depths.
"Mm, I’ll clear my schedule and go with you tomorrow."
"Qin Mu, I’m not a child anymore... Don’t worry, I’ll just take the bus there and back. When you’re with me, I always end up wanting to sketch portraits without even realizing it."
Mu Wan’s voice was soft and gentle. Qin Mu listened to her and seemed to be thinking it over.
Mu Wan took a deep breath, took the initiative to lift her gaze to meet the man’s handsome face, blinked her big eyes, looking very sincere, even though her palms were slick with nervous sweat.
"Mm... then I’ll pick you up tonight."
"Okay."
Mu Wan let out a tiny sigh of relief, secretly thinking that tomorrow she had to go to Southeast City for a checkup...
...
Each holding their own thoughts, when Mu Wan woke up from sleep, Qin Mu had already washed up.
"Mom’s made breakfast and is calling us downstairs. She says there are your favorite spring rolls."
Mu Wan’s beautiful eyes lit up. She actually really loved the handmade spring rolls Qin’s mom made; they were crispy and delicious.
"Okay."
"You can still take the bus later, but I’ll arrange some people to follow and protect you in secret. After all, you’re climbing a mountain. Even if it’s a scenic spot, I still won’t feel at ease."
"Okay."
Mu Wan listened carefully to everything Qin Mu instructed.
Qin Mu looked at the woman’s obedient appearance with satisfaction. Especially just after waking up, Mu Wan’s soft pink lips looked even more dewy, and he couldn’t resist bending down to peck at her red lips.
"A good-morning kiss..."
Mu Wan: "..."
Fine.
Mu Wan was kissed by the man until her head was spinning.
...
By the time Mu Wan finished washing up and went downstairs, Qin Mu had already eaten breakfast and left for the company.
Because she had to get checked, Mu Wan didn’t dare eat much. She just drank a bit of water, took the spring rolls with her, and headed toward the bus stop.
Qin’s mom couldn’t relax and urged Mu Wan to take some more, but Mu Wan said frankly that it was enough.
...
After a two-hour bus ride, Mu Wan finally reached West Mountain.
West Mountain counted as the outermost high mountain of Yuncheng City. Because it was so remote, there weren’t many tourists who came here.
Mu Wan was wearing jeans and canvas shoes, and she climbed toward the summit one steady step at a time.
Previously, when she was sitting on the bus, it had been hard to notice that bodyguards had been following behind her the whole time...
Now that she was climbing, when Mu Wan turned around, she could see two bodyguards in black trailing her all the way.
Mu Wan’s beautiful eyes darkened slightly, and she thought to herself that it would be pretty hard to shake them off here.
...
After an hour of climbing, Mu Wan finally reached the top, taking a deep breath and savoring the fresh air.
Mu Wan deliberately chose a spot close to the sunlight, set down her drawing board, and picked a suitable angle for sketching.
The bodyguards didn’t dare disturb her and could only stand behind her.
Mu Wan narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, then raised her hand to motion the men over.
"I’m feeling a bit thirsty. It looked like that little shop on the mountain didn’t have any milk. Could you go down the mountain and buy me some milk? I only brought spring rolls and didn’t bring any water."
"Alright, madam, I’ll go buy it right away."
"Sorry to trouble you."
Mu Wan curved her lips in a faint smile, feeling a bit guilty toward the bodyguard.
To send him away, she could only make him go back down the mountain and climb up again.
The bodyguard who’d been sent to buy milk briefly handed things over to the other bodyguard, then headed down the mountain.
The one who stayed behind didn’t dare slack off and remained by Mu Wan’s side the whole time...
Mu Wan simply used her brush to outline the mountain’s shape and the trees.
Stroke by stroke, she was very serious...
Suddenly, Mu Wan pretended to be careless and let the brush fall onto the steep slope... The brush rolled all the way down along the slope...
"Madam... careful."
Before, seeing Mu Wan sitting on the summit drawing had eased the bodyguard’s worries a bit. Now, when he saw the brush fall, his first reaction was to protect Mu Wan’s safety.
