Chapter 592: 397

In his eyes, there was truly no corner that couldn’t be dug up, including... Mu Lin.

No longer paying attention to the illogical people, Gu Muqing took Mu Lin’s hand, looked at her, smiled affectionately, the look in his eyes was vastly different from how he looked at Mi Zheng, "Linlin, you haven’t eaten yet, right?"

It was lunchtime, between eleven-thirty and twelve, Gu Muqing had deliberately chosen this time to come, with the intention of having a hearty meal with his future daughter-in-law and discussing some family matters.

He also wanted to help his precious son, who had no understanding of girls, learn more about when his daughter-in-law would be able to enter their Jing family’s main gate.

However, it seemed that he didn’t need to inquire any further, as Mu Lin had already given an answer just now.

So, it was up to his son next.

He needed to act swiftly, ruthlessly, and accurately! Then acquiring a wife would be easy; if he dithered too long, even a cooked duck might fly away.

Mu Lin had no idea what her future mother-in-law was thinking at this moment. She just shook her head honestly, "I just got back, and was about to order room service for a meal in my room." She hadn’t expected to waste so much time in this hall, let alone that Jing Chen’s mother would come to see her at this time.

"Why order room service?" Gu Muqing glanced at Mu Lin with pretended anger, "Let’s go, I haven’t eaten either, accompany me to the restaurant." As he spoke, he pulled Mu Lin towards the elevator, "Really, when you are out alone, you don’t know how to take care of yourself. Just look at how skinny you are, you’ve become all skin and bones." It’s heartbreaking to see.

Thinking that Mu Lin was now all alone, Gu Muqing felt even more heartache.

Such a good girl, and yet heaven seemed to have treated her so unfairly. However, now she had them, no one could bully her.

When she heard this description, Mu Lin couldn’t help but chuckle.

She was just the right amount of skinny, her grandfather had even commented that her figure felt great.

Cough cough... where was she going with this thought.

She felt like she was led astray all at once.

The two soldiers in military uniforms behind them hurriedly followed, they had been instructed to protect their lady closely. However, when passing by Mi Zheng they deliberately looked back at him.

Yeah, he was indeed very masculine.

Mi Zheng looked at the figures leaving, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, with an obscure and profound look in his eyes.

Looks like things just got a bit more interesting.

...

In the private room.

Mu Lin sat quietly while six eyes were fixed on her.

Two pairs were somewhat subtle, but the other pair was blatantly unreserved, making Mu Lin feel a little awkward and uncomfortable under such scrutiny.

Gu Muqing initially gave Mu Lin the impression of being gentle and graceful, but upon seeing her today, Mu Lin realized that gentleness was a facade.

You can’t judge a person by their appearance.

This was the first time she realized how this saying could be used.

"Are you planning to stay in the hotel for good, Linlin?" After looking at her for a long time, Gu Muqing finally spoke, which made Mu Lin feel like she could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hmm." Mu Lin nodded, "I don’t know how long I’ll be staying in a place, so I usually stay in hotels." Everything is usually quite convenient there.

I see.

Gu Muqing nodded thoughtfully.

"It seems Linlin frequently travels." This was a somewhat casual remark, but Mu Lin still nodded, "I usually take a break from mountain life every year, that’s what I promised my master before he passed away." Maybe because she was Jing Chen’s mother, Mu Lin didn’t shy away from speaking a few words to Gu Muqing.

"To see patients?" Gu Muqing asked, as if understanding something, "So, you are at the military hospital in B city this time." Descending the mountain... had this girl really lived alone on a mountain before?

"My son-in-law once mentioned that you ran into Zhou Jiansheng, a person you knew, at the airport, and then you were invited to the military hospital." All of this was fate.

Mu Lin nodded.

"I’ve actually always felt quite fortunate." Looking at Mu Lin, Gu Muqing sighed softly, Mu Lin looked at her, confused. "If it weren’t for the fact that you happened to be in B city and happened to run into old Zhou, you wouldn’t have ended up in our Jing family. The old man wouldn’t have had his chronic problems cured after all these years." Even more so, "I heard from Chenchen before, you saved his life too."

Their acquaintance had started from there.
