Chapter 436: Chapter 308: Choked up (Third update)_1

Her lips were a little swollen, but they emitted a mysterious luster that made them even more enticing.

Mu Lin pushed Jing Chen aside and walked into the restroom to touch up her lipstick. She was certainly a visionary, having bought a lipstick from the makeup artist she found at the Ya Family’s house. Indeed, it had been completely consumed.

Actually, consuming too much of some ingredients in the lipstick was not good at all.

Stepping out of the restroom, Mu Lin held a wet tissue in her hand, lightly dabbing at the corner of Jing Chen’s mouth, so he wouldn’t leave the house looking like this.

However, today’s Mr. Jing exhibited a different kind of charm. His suit was neat and sharp, in stark contrast to his standard military attire. It shed the stern justice, but added a hint of rebelliousness; truly perfect.

In Mu Lin’s eyes, apart from his temper, everything about this man in front of her was so perfect it was envy-inducing.

Mu Lin reached out and adjusted the tie around his neck; it had made Mr. Jing extremely uncomfortable, as it came loose after repeatedly tugging. It had been fastened too tightly.

Of course, at this moment, Mr. Jing was thoroughly enjoying Mu Lin’s service. He even suddenly found his tie rather adorable.

Linking arms with Jing Chen, she descended from the loft, and with a soft smile looked at Ya Yan, who was currently grooming Qiaozi’s feathers.

Compared with Ya Yan, she was indeed lazier; apart from occasionally bathing Qiaozi, she let it take care of everything else by itself. It seemed that even Qiaozi had taken a liking to this little rabbit, which was quite rare indeed.

There was once when Mr. Jing wanted to bathe Qiaozi on Mu Lin’s behalf. However, Uncle Qiaozi reacted as if he had gone mad. Mu Lin was quite helpless.

The pain of plucking feathers was truly unforgettable.

Mu Lin came to a stop at Ya Yan’s side, "Ya Yan, let’s go." The time was almost upon them; any later and Yan Zilei might come up to retrieve them himself.

"Alright." After stroking Qiaozi’s head, Ya Yan stood up, and spoke to it, "I’m leaving first, be a good boy." Was there a problem with silver being small and bringing it along?

Ya Yan wanted to bring it, but felt it stood out too much, so she gave up the idea. Moreover, Mu Lin had said that Qiaozi didn’t like such settings.

Well, actually she didn’t like it herself either, but she wanted to attend with Mu Lin, perhaps it would be her last chance to do so.

As for Mu Lin not bringing Qiaozi to the banquet, Uncle Qiaozi didn’t feel anything in particular. Flapping half of its wings, he waved at them, then nestled up on the sofa to rest.

Now that the odious snake was gone, Qiaozi could finally have a good sleep without constant worry.

...

Yan Zilei and Xu Yibai had already arrived at the banquet hall. As the hosts, it wouldn’t be good to arrive too late. At this time, they were exchanging pleasantries with some entrepreneurs. As for Hong Boyuan and Xiao Feng, they were nowhere to be found, thus they were on the balcony outside the banquet hall, getting some fresh air.

They didn’t particularly like such places or the atmosphere. The only reason they came today was because of Mu Lin; looking at all those people putting on airs, they would rather go home and have a good sleep.

Checking the time on his watch, Xiao Feng turned to Hong Boyuan, "Let’s go, it’s almost time. Mu Lin should be arriving soon."

"Alright, let’s go." Hong Boyuan, originally leaning against the railing, straightened up and began walking leisurely. He’d wanted to go upstairs to find Mu Lin, but whenever he thought of Mr. Jing, he decided it would be better not to.

Based on Hong Boyuan’s observations, Mr. Jing appeared cool and aloof, but in reality was an extremely jealous person.

Needless to say, Hong Boyuan’s speculation was quite accurate.

In the banquet hall, Yan Zilei was initially exchanging pleasantries with a potential business partner; but as soon as he saw the trio walking through the main entrance, he immediately went to greet them.

Watching Ya Yan approach him step by step, a deep smile spread across his face. She was just radiant today. The strapless dress that fell to her knees made Ya Yan look exceptionally lively and cute. Seeing her tender lips, all Yan Zilei wanted to do was... kiss her.

Not just Yan Zilei, when the two old men finished their conversation and looked over, both of them stood up to greet the newcomers.

Mr. Xiao was surprised, not expecting the young divine doctor to be so young, seeming to be around the same age as their own Xiao Feng.
