False Affection: My Mysterious Mr. Moo

Moo Tingxiao made it clear that he was emphasizing the word “cripple”, and his low voice was flirtatious. The closer he got to her, the uneasier Mu Nuannuan felt, so she shifted her body to keep a distance. But after she thought about it for a while, she believed him. He could not have come into Moo Tingxiao’s mansion if he was not Moo Tingxiao’s cousin, she figured. “He’s your cousin. Please, stop saying that.” Mu Nuannuan knew what it was like to be derided, hence she sympathized with Moo Tingxiao. His life had to be difficult, considering his circumstances, and the wealth of his family did not help, she thought.Surprised by what the ugly woman said, Moo Tingxiao did a double-take on her.She was wearing a pair of frumpy, black-framed glasses and a long cotton jacket. Her hair was a bird’s nest, and her bangs were so long that they almost covered her eyes. Not only that, the dark spots on her dull face looked particularly disgusting. Undoubtedly, the ugly woman was not his bea

A black vehicle stopped in front of the Mu Family residence. Just as Mu Nuannuan was about to unbuckle her seat belt, Moo Tingxiao leaned over. He reached out with his long and slender fingers to the release button. He pressed it and released the seat belt with a click. Mu Nuannuan was smitten. Her eyes were unsettled because his face was only inches away from hers. As tranquil as she was, it was too close for comfort. The man had a face that made women’s hearts race.That aside, when the thought of his immodest behavior from yesterday came to mind, Mu Nuannuan collected herself. He was only a vulgar son of a wealthy family who coveted the wife of his cousin. He was an abbreviated piece of nothing, she told herself.So, she looked up and pulled the same trick again: she pushed her glasses up her nose and wore a dumb expression on her face with a retarded look in her eyes. “I’m out.”Moo Tingxiao squinted at her insidiously. Sensing the changes in him, Mu Nuannuan reached for the door,

Mu Nuannuan looked at Xiao Chuhe with a pair of stone-cold eyes. “Apologize? No way!”As far as Xiao Chuhe could remember, this daughter of hers was pretty when she was little, but somehow, she grew up to be ugly and dumb. Getting such a callous stare from Mu Nuannuan for the first time, she could not help but feel a chill travel up her spine. She swallowed, turned to her elder daughter, and whispered, “Wanqi, maybe we should just let it be. Don’t force her up against the wall, otherwise…”　Mu Wanqi was not finished with her, but she let it slide. Mu Nuannuan could do something stupid to enrage the Moo Family and get the Mu Family into trouble. She still wanted to live the life of Riley.Knowing that she had successfully unnerved them, Mu Nuannuan went up to her room and retrieved her belongings, not that she had a lot to take. In fact, she had been living like a guest under someone else’s roof in the Mu Family for the past twenty years.When Mu Nuannuan carried her luggage downstairs

“What?” Mu Nuannuan was freaked out. “I can’t!”She despised the man, but she valued life. Despite only being the product of Mu Liyan and Xiao Chuhe’s failure at planned parenthood, and despite Mu Wanqi bossing her around like a maid all those years, she still strived to live her life. She could not understand why “Moo Jiachen” treated life so lightly. And no, she would not follow his demand..Mu Tingxiao corked an eyebrow. “So you prefer to be buried together with me?” His voice was still unconcerned, but it carried a sense of unquestionable determination.Pale-faced, Mu Nuannuan had no choice but to prepare the things he had asked for. She thought that her life had already reached its lowest point ever since she married into the Moo Family, so it made no difference now. She even told herself in a joking manner that if “Moo Jiachen” died while she tried to remove the bullet, it was worth being buried with such a handsome man.…Mu Nuannuan tried to calm down as best as she could, but

The next day, the ringing of Mu Nuannuan’s mobile phone jolted her out of her sleep. While everyone in the world was using the latest smartphone, she was using an old phone, which only allowed her to make calls and send SMSes. That was to conform to her image as a hick.She picked up the phone and saw the caller ID. Her mind instantly went from half-awake to full alert. After two seconds of hesitation, she pressed the answer button. “Dad.”“You came home yesterday? Who sent you?” Mu Liyan’s voice was as somber as ever. His indifference was disappointing. Mu Nuannuan had just gotten married, but he did not do what any good father would have done. He had not called her in a hundred years, and when he finally called, it sounded like an interrogation. It was no wonder that Mu Nuannuan did not trust him.In spite of that, she still told him the truth. “It was Moo Tingxiao’s cousin.”Mu Liyan was silent for a moment before he said, “If you have time, bring your elder sis over to the Moo Fam
