Drunk on Marriage, Billionaire's Overindulgent Love

Chapter 89: 089. Someone seems to be really annoyed...

Very good, just what a competent subordinate should be like.

Mu Jinqian was quite pleased. In fact, he always knew this girl had a clear and sensible nature and wouldn’t mix personal matters with work.

It’s just that he noticed a certain unpleasant man’s gaze drifting over occasionally, so he teased her a bit to give that person some relief.

He put down the teacup and handed her the freshly copied and sealed envelope, "Send this medical case to Sheng Boyan. Without delaying his work, I hope to know the result as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Mu Jinqian’s words, Nan Wan’s gaze focused on the envelope in front of her.

If they’re seeking Sheng Boyan for a medical case, it’s most likely a mental issue...

In front of professionalism, personal grudges can be set aside for now. She took the envelope and spoke cautiously, "I will call Senior Brother Sheng and explain the situation, but I can’t guarantee he will accept it."

After all, that oddball Sheng Boyan requires a certain connection for medical consultations.

Hearing these words, a subtle wave of emotion stirred in Mu Jin Huan’s slightly closed dark eyes, rolling like a wave, and swiftly returned to calm.

Senior Brother Sheng...

The name rolls off the tongue quite naturally.

Mu Jinqian assumed the matter was settled and added, "One more thing, besides Sheng Boyan, I hope no one else will see this medical case."

Once again, Nan Wan glanced at the sealed envelope. Whose medical case could make the Mu Family pay so much attention...

He was so busy, yet he came in person.

Raising her eyes, her face showed no excess emotion, her voice light, "Director, rest assured, I will relay your words verbatim."

Mu Jinqian nodded, patted Nan Wan’s arm, "Thank you for your hard work."

The leisurely and lazy Huo Yihan glanced at the calm Mu Jin Huan on the sofa and then at Nan Wan, who ignored them in front of the desk, with growing interest in his eyes.

Tsk tsk, they sure can hold their ground...

Clearing his throat, he spoke, "Miss Nan, I remember, it seems we know each other."

Nan Wan raised her eyes and gave a faint glance, "With someone like President Huo, I dare not aim too high."

With just one sentence, Nan Wan blocked the eager Huo Yihan.

.....

The door closed behind them, Mu Jinqian looked at his brother, both amused and helpless, asking, "She usually handles troublesome patient relatives with a polite smile, for her to ignore you like this, what exactly did you do?"

It seems he’s really provoked her.

Huo Yihan glanced at a certain part of Mu Jin Huan, a wicked smile on his face, "Brother, could it be that you’ve been celibate for too long, and that aspect of yours has degenerated, not satisfying her?"

Men’s banter always spills out easily and without reservation.

Mu Jin Huan’s face remained expressionless as he elegantly put down the teacup, stood up from the sofa, fastened the buttons on his suit with his slender fingers, his voice calm, "Big brother, I’m leaving."

Someone seems genuinely annoyed...

In Mu Jinqian’s view, the face that resembled his own by about seventy percent showed no emotion, except the sea-deep eyes appearing more obscure than usual, revealing nothing else.

He gestured for them to leave, "Alright, alright, all of you, go."

Huo Yihan remained seated, not moving. He waited until the sound of footsteps faded before asking, "Future sister-in-law?"

His voice intentionally low, with an obvious tone of doubt and uncertainty.

Mu Jinqian chuckled, without giving a direct answer, instead he countered, "Do you think with his posture, he’s just flirting for fun?"

"With Nan Wan’s current reputation, I’m afraid your Mu family won’t easily agree."

Mu Jinqian scoffed, "He’s not worried, so why are you fretting?"

————

The surrounding trees stood silently and desolately, casting heavy shadows.

A sharp wind whistled, carrying a mix of dampness and cold, while leaden clouds that had gathered in the afternoon looked even more foreboding under the night sky.

Nan Wan was blocked by five strong men in black suits, forming a wall of flesh in every direction, leaving no room to step.

"Kidnapping?" Nan Wan furrowed her brows, calmly looking at the man directly ahead, her voice indifferent, "I’m very poor, to the point of wanting someone to keep me."

The leading man in black did not expect such a comment, leaving him momentarily flustered.

A few seconds later, he remembered his professional ethics, "Miss Nan, Chairman Nan invites you to Shuyue Hotel."

Hearing this, Nan Wan suddenly recalled that Shen Zhimei had mentioned in the afternoon that Nan Chengzhi had called her. Strangely, he hadn’t said anything substantive, only asked about her work schedule and off-duty time.

Her delicate features showed ridicule, her voice light, "Did Dad ask you to invite, or to kidnap me?"

At a glance, these five were all skilled practitioners, capable of easily restraining her with casual moves.

What is Nan Chengzhi trying to do?

The man in black couldn’t quite meet the eyes of this notorious third daughter of the Nan Family. Her gaze was too calm, yet hidden within those clear and bright eyes seemed to be weapons sharp enough to cut into the heart.

Not daring to think too much, adhering to his professional conduct, he cleared his throat and firmly said, "Miss Nan, we’re just following orders. Hope you can cooperate and not make it difficult for us."

Nan Wan crossed her arms in front, a smile spreading across her face, with an arc at the corner of her lips making the beauty mark at her eye’s tail exude temptation, "What if I choose not to cooperate?"

The nearby man in black, chilled to the point of reddened nose, couldn’t hold his temper, glaring viciously at her radiant face, "If you don’t cooperate, we can only resort to force, either knocking you out with a stick or drugging you, all depending on my mood."

Nan Wan raised her hand, swirling a few strands of hair around her fingertip, her smile growing brighter, yet her cold brows showed no hint of amusement, "I see..."

The leading man in black figured it was best to resolve swiftly. Near the hospital, with a considerable flow of people, their congregation would easily draw attention.

Scanning the surroundings, he lowered his voice, his tone significantly shifting to an obvious threat and intimidation, "In public, if things turn too ugly, it won’t look good. We’ll be fine with the aftermath, but Miss Nan, you won’t fare so well..."

Nan Wan seemed to agree, nodding slightly, yet still stood in place, leisurely playing with her hair, without any hint of cooperation.

The man in black lost his patience, stepping forward expressionlessly, whispering in Nan Wan’s ear, "I heard your mother..."

He stopped there, yet already observed its effect.

Her face, a moment ago still gently smiling, turned icy the moment he finished those words.

Her almond eyes seemed to hold chilling ice, as cold as this winter night in Qing City, her delicate features displaying no expression.
