Incurable Chapter 20 Part 2

Mu Wan didn’t have any schedule this weekend, so she slept until ten o’clock in the morning and called Lin Wei. Lin Wei answered, “Hi.” and asked: “Why do you have time to call me? Didn’t you accompany Liu Daochang?”

“I’ll go to him in the afternoon.” Mu Wan said, “He can’t be tired of me all day, or he will be annoyed.”

“Oh, you still know how to develop in a balanced way.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Want you eat hot pot or not?”

“Eat!”

“Go!”

The two made an appointment at the Sichuan Chongqing hot pot restaurant in Jinze Building. It was still raining in the morning, and the weather was cold. There were a lot of people in the hotpot restaurants. The hot pot restaurant was well decorated. After they arrived, the waiter showed Mu Wan and Lin Wei to the window seat. After sitting down, the two leaned against each other and began to order.

Holding a pencil, Mu Wan first sketched the bottom of the mandarin duck in the bottom of the pot.

The two of them have been friends for so many years. Because of their similar tastes, they have always enjoyed hot pot. Lin Wei looked at Mu Wan incredulously and said, “What do you want to eat?”

“I’ll have clear soup.” Mu Wan looked down and said, “I have become accustomed to the light flavor and can’t eat heavy flavors anymore.”

Lin Wei leaned back and looked at her.

Mu Wan squinted to meet her gaze and asked, “What are you doing?”

With a deep sigh, Lin Wei sighed and said, “You said you were going to seduce Liu Daochang. I didn’t see Daochang Liu stepping into the world of mortals, yet you are becoming increasingly indifferent. Don’t let you be influenced and become a fellow Taoist with Liu Daochang.”

The hot pot restaurant was bustling, and Mu Wan turned the pencil in her hand and said, “What’s wrong with a fellow Taoist? I will practice double cultivation with him if I become a fellow Taoist.”

Mu Wan didn’t speak very loudly. But after she finished speaking, the people at the neighboring table looked over.

Lin Wei’s expression was indescribable.

Mu Wan: “...What’s the matter?”

“Double cultivation does not mean that two people practice together, but it means... forget it, go back and check it yourself.”

“...”

Mu Wan didn’t wait to go back to check it. When the hot pot boiled, she searched for it. As soon as the interface came out, she opened the encyclopedia. The steam curled in the hot pot, and Mu Wan’s face was slightly hot.

Lin Wei bit the brown sugar glutinous rice cake. She watched Mu Wan’s face gradually turn red and laughed in her heart: this little chicken.

“Do you know what it means?” Lin Wei asked.

“I know.” Mu Wan drank the water and suppressed her dry anger. She told Lin Wei: “Different routes but have the same goal. Anyway, we still have to do double cultivation in the end.”

Lin Wei burst into laughter.

After the two laughed, Lin Wei seemed to think of something and said to her: “Hey, our studio recently took an order for Seaview Villa in South District. A house that is tens of millions.”

Lin Wei’s interior design studio is engaged in high-end interior design, and clients are generally wealthy. But this kind of order of tens of millions is still somewhat rare.

“Good thing.” Mu Wan also took a piece of glutinous rice cake and a bite. The sweetness made her soft. “The more expensive the house, the more money you earn.”

“Do you know who it belongs to?” When Lin Wei finished asking, she answered herself, “Mu Qing.”

Mu Wan raised her eyebrows after the bite.

When Mu Qing was in high school, she was in the same school as Lin Wei and Mu Wan. She also knew that the people in the Mu family were inseparable from the messy things. She snorted and said: “She took the initiative to find our studio. You said that after so many years, she has been hiding so well on the surface. How come she still can’t help but show off.”

Mu Qing knew Lin Wei was Mu Wan’s good friend, so she chose her studio.

“But the house’s signature doesn’t seem to be hers.” Lin Wei is an interior designer and knows a lot of people in real estate. She specifically checked it out. “It’s from Shen Cheng. They two are together?”

“Yeah.” Mu Wan said. “Mother Wu said that Shen Cheng had been to the Mu family’s house.”

“Yo.” Lin Wei Lin Wei had a strange yin and yang, “She can climb to the top.”

Somehow, Mu Wan felt Mu Qing was more than just showing off. She said to Lin Wei, “Have been already signed it?”

“Signed” Lin Wei raised her eyebrows. “There is nothing to be afraid of it. It’s just a house. At the worst is a breach of contract, but this old lady is a rich second generation.”

“Then, you can treat this meal today.” Mu Wan is a good friend.

Lin Wei: “...”

After having lunch with Lin Wei, the two strolled around the mall again. After she bought a bunch of clothes, Lin Wei sent Mu Wan back to her home. After getting home, Mu Wan bathed, collapsed on the bed because she was tired, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was four o’clock in the afternoon. Mu Wan sat cross-legged on the bed and sent a text message to Liu Qianxiu.

A basketball game finished, but there was still the sound of a basketball hitting the ground. The stadium was full of lights. Liu Qianxiu sat aside, looking up and drinking water.

He had just finished a game, sweating profusely. When he raised his head and drank water, beads of sweat ran down his Adam’s apple, which was refreshing and sexy after exercise.

The thin mineral water bottle, wrapped in his slender hand, is still in good condition. After drinking the water, Liu Qianxiu put the water aside, picked up his shirt, and wiped his sweat.

He has a thin body, but it is a firm figure. His white jersey lifted up. It revealed the tight muscle lines of his waist and abdomen, showing the impact of male hormones. However, his eyebrows are still light when the jersey is put down. Even after high-intensity exercise, his complexion is still cool and white, as if the body and spirit are separated without interfering.

After putting down the jersey, the mobile phone next to him rang. He stretched out his hand to take it, looked, put the phone away, and said to Huai Jing next to him: “I should go now.”

Huai Jing had just finished drinking water, his elbows rested on his knees, and he was sweaty. But he didn’t seem to be tired. His eyes were slightly loose. Hearing Liu Qianxiu’s words, he glanced at the time and asked: “What are you doing back so early?”

“Cooking.” Liu Qianxiu said.

Huai Jing: “...It’s only past four o’clock now.”

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu responded.
