Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat
Chapter 476 - 476 471 An Unexpected Reason

Chapter 476: Chapter 471: An Unexpected Reason Chapter 476: Chapter 471: An Unexpected Reason Beijing, a café in Central Plaza at the city center.

“Your elder fellow disciple has even called me; the least you could do is meet the person. Hurry up, you have twenty minutes to get over here.”

Mu Chenyan hung up the phone and said to her daughter sitting beside her, “Your second brother is starting to give me headaches too. He’s not interested in any of the female doctors chasing him at the hospital and he’s unwilling to go on arranged dates. What on earth does he want?”

Mu Jiawen aimlessly stirred her coffee with a spoon, resting her chin on her hand, and responded lazily, “He knows what he’s doing, what’s the rush for you?”

The mother and daughter were originally out shopping and planning to watch a movie when they received an urgent call from Yu Feng, their senior fellow disciple, saying that his old friend’s daughter had just returned from studying abroad, was very smart, and also pretty.

The wife of his old friend had met Yu Feng once and was immediately impressed. She repeatedly contacted the Dean, imploring him to make sure an arranged date took place.

Mu Chenyan understood in her heart that she was used to her three sons and didn’t find them exceptional, but to outsiders, they were all highly desirable.

Xiaosi, who was actually engaged to Jiang Yan early on, would have had even more pursuers otherwise.

“Mom, you’ve already called second brother, do we still need to wait here?”

She wanted to go buy clothes for Jiang Yan and really didn’t want to linger here.

“The lady is almost here; don’t you want to take a look?”

Mu Jiawen shook her head, “Second brother isn’t interested, I doubt anything will come of it.”

“Just take a look, I just promised the Dean.”

“Fine, if you want to wait, then wait. I’m going to the restroom.”

She got up and walked out.

Not wanting to use the café’s restroom, she walked a bit further to the third floor of the shopping mall outside.

Perhaps because a “repair” sign had been hung in the morning, it had only just returned to service not long ago, and so it was very quiet inside, with no one else around.

But just as Mu Jiawen had sat down, a series of tap-tap-tap sounds of high heels on the floor echoed from outside, followed by a woman’s voice giggling on the phone–

“…He’s a doctor; my mom says he’s incredibly handsome. You know how she likes to judge based on looks; if even she thinks he’s handsome, he must not be bad. Plus, his profession is decent, so I figured why not meet him.”

“What, if I don’t like him, I’ll pass him to you? Since I’m not interested, how could I let you have a go? What? You… are you pregnant again?”

“What do you mean? You’re not going to terminate it, you plan to keep it? Ah? Is that what the doctor said? After this one’s gone, the chances of getting pregnant again are slim? Then you might as well get back together with him.”

“What? He’s engaged to someone else? That bastard, how long have you two been broken up?…”

“I’ll first see how it goes; if this guy is easy to fool, I’ll consider arranging for you to meet him. With your looks, no man can resist you.”

“Done talking now, it’s almost time.”

The woman ended the call, and Mu Jiawen also stood up, stepping on the flush pedal.

The sound of flushing water seemed to startle the woman. When Mu Jiawen opened the door to step out, their gazes collided.

She saw the other woman pause for a moment, but she didn’t pay any attention and went straight to wash and dry her hands before leaving the restroom.

Sigh…

Mu Jiawen silently sighed, thinking to herself that her second brother’s luck couldn’t be this bad, could it? Why does she always have to overhear the other party’s private and shameful secrets? She hoped this woman wasn’t the same one her brother was supposed to meet.

Unfortunately, Mu Jiawen’s prayers were of no use.

Not long after she returned to the coffee shop, she saw the woman she met in the bathroom enter the same coffee shop and then take a seat at Table No. 18, which had been reserved by her mother.

“Oh, look, the young lady has arrived.”

With her coffee in hand, Mu Chenyan sneaked a peek at the other woman and then turned to her daughter with a smile, “Tell me, isn’t she pretty?”

Honestly speaking, the woman was indeed quite beautiful, but having grown accustomed to her brothers’ good looks, Mu Jiawen remained indifferent.

“I’ll call your second brother to see where he is.”

At that moment, Mu Jiawen felt rather helpless, considering whether she should go to the temple to offer incense one day, to avoid always hindering her second brother from finding a wife.

After Mu Chenyan finished calling, Mu Jiawen told her about the conversation she overheard in the bathroom.

Looking for a fall guy for her best friend, this girl’s moral compass was truly unique.

“Young people these days really are…”

At a loss for words, Mu Chenyan didn’t know what to say, and she was also very annoyed. She had pushed her son into this blind date only to end up with this?

She didn’t care much about looks or family background, but character and values had to be solid, as these were the basic requirements and the foundation of a family.

“Second brother is here, don’t worry, he won’t like her.”

Mu Jiawen watched as Yu Feng came in, glanced their way, and then confidently walked toward Table No. 18.

The woman who had been on the phone in the bathroom didn’t notice Mu Jiawen, but her eyes lit up when Yu Feng approached the table where she was sitting.

Seeing everything from the sidelines, Mu Jiawen couldn’t help but purse her lips and sneer inwardly. So she’s interested, huh? It’s no use being interested.

After about ten minutes of talking, Yu Feng called the waiter over to pay the bill, politely nodded to the woman after handing over the money, and then stood up and walked towards his mother and sister’s location.

The woman seemed reluctant to let it go and stood up to follow Yu Feng, “Doctor Yu…”

She didn’t get to finish her sentence, as she caught sight of Mu Jiawen and the matchmaking Doctor Yu had already reached her and casually patted her head, saying, “Move in a bit.”

It was only after that Yu Feng seemed to hear her and turned with a look of surprise, asking, “Miss Lin, is there something else?”

“Ah? No, nothing.”

Miss Lin’s mouth twitched slightly as she forced a smile. She wouldn’t think there was anything inappropriate between Mu Jiawen and Yu Feng because they looked so similar. They might pass for strangers when apart, but together, even a blind man could see they were siblings.

Watching Miss Lin hurriedly leave, Mu Jiawen couldn’t help but turn her head to curiously ask Yu Feng, “Couldn’t get along?”

She expected her second brother to nod, but he gave a reason she could never have imagined, “She has body odor, must have had surgery before, but it wasn’t completely successful, or perhaps it’s come back. Anyway, I can’t stand the smell.”

Mu Jiawen looked at him, shocked, “It’s winter now, don’t tell me you smelled it, that would mean your nose is freakishly sensitive. Also, aren’t you a neurologist?”

“I’m interested in all fields of medicine, so apart from neurology, your brother can also be considered an expert in other areas.”

“Stop showing off, how did you figure out she had body odor?”

“Smelled it, yes. Maybe the air conditioning here is set pretty high; she was sweating earlier. Even though she sprayed a lot of perfume, I could still smell it right away. I can tolerate a lot, but not that!”

“…”
