August in An City was the month where the fragrance of Osmanthus flowers permeated the surrounding air. The feather light breeze gently stroked the trees, leading to waves of blossom shower. Passers-by stopped in their tracks, mesmerized by the beauty of the scenery.
However, Mu Yu, who was in a rush for her appointment, did not have the leisure to do so.
In the morning, after reporting to the Municipal Bureau of Forensic Medicine, she made a trip to school after noting that the time was still early. Initially, she intended to send Mu back home, however the tyre of her scooter punctured suddenly. After much difficulty, she managed to repair the tyre, but the remaining time was insufficient to allow her to go back home, hence she was forced to bring Mu to her date.
Thinking of her mother’s lion-like roar, she felt her scalp going numb. She did not dare to dawdle for a second longer. Seeing the red traffic light ahead starting the five seconds countdown, she hurriedly increased the speed of her scooter to the maximum, in anticipation of using these precious few seconds to speed across the zebra crossing.
In the meantime, Qin Jinhuan, who was seated inside the car leisurely listening to music while waiting for the red traffic light to turn green, saw his phone ringing. He immediately connected his Bluetooth device.
The moment it connected, his servant Li Xianglan’s panicked voice was heard, “Young Master, the Old Master is missing!”
“What?! Where did he go missing?!” Qin Jinhuan suddenly sat bolt upright.
The Old Master was his grandfather who was nearly in his eighties. Lately he was diagnosed with brain atrophy, hence he was not as sharp as he used to be anymore.
Li Xianglan sobbed and said, “The Rising Sun Plaza. I accompany him there like always…”
At the exact moment, the traffic light turned green. Without waiting for her to finish her sentence, Qin Jinhuan stepped on the accelerator.
Bang!
“Ahhh!”
Screech—
Qin Jinhuan noticed he had hit a person. He stopped his car immediately and went out to investigate.
“Mu!”
Mu Yu, who fell down after the accident, got up immediately and turned her head. She saw Mu, who was previously strapped down to the back of the scooter, had fallen head first to the ground. She hurriedly adjusted her scooter into an upright position, but when she saw Mu’s broken penis, she felt extremely distressed. Immediately, she turned her eyes to the car owner and angrily questioned him, “Do you know how to drive a car? Don’t you understand the traffic signals?”
Although Mu was just a mannequin, he was still precious to her.
Initially, Qin Jinhuan wanted to help her out, but after hearing her words, he immediately withdrew his helping hand and coldly stated, “I was driving normally. It is you who disobeyed the traffic rules.”
Mu Yu picked up the castrated penis, while turning her head to see the traffic signals. She vaguely knew she was in the wrong, but when she saw the injured Mu, her temper flared up again. “The rules are dead, but humans are alive. I crossed the pedestrian crossing first, you…”
When she saw Qin Jinhuan getting into the car, she rushed toward his car window and shouted angrily, “You’ve hit a person and still wanted to run away? Did you know that a hit and run will result in a harsher penalty?!”
Qin Jinhuan who was in a hurry to leave, angrily retorted, “Well, you looked fine to me.”
“I am fine, but my Mu is injured. See!” Mu Yu pointed at Mu. “He is injured and you must be held accountable for him!”
“This pile of plastic trash can be considered a human being too?” Qin Jinhuan nonchalantly rolled up his car window.
Seeing Mu being insulted, Mu Yu furiously pressed down against the window while defending Mu, “Mu is not a pile of rotten plastics! He is my closest friend! I will not allow you to insult him like that!”
Qin Jinhuan saw the stuff she was carrying and laughed. “I see. Since no man wanted you, you decided to buy a pile of rotten plastics to hug yourself to sleep at night, huh? You are so pathetic and sad.”
“You!” Mu Yu’s face turned bright red at once. “Uncle, did your mother make you into this lustful, dirty guy?”
Uncle? Me? An uncle? Is this young lady’s eyes blind?
Qin Jinhuan knitted his eyebrows together. He was worried about the whereabouts of his grandfather, and seeing the eloquence of her speech, he decided not to waste his time anymore and stepped on the accelerator.
“Don’t you dare drive away!” Mu Yu stepped in front of the car.
Qin Jinhuan’s patience began to run out. “You scratched my car, I hit your pile of rotten plastics, so we are even. Now move it.”
“You insulted Mu! You must apologize to him!”
What? Apologize to a pile of rotten plastics? This was out of the question.
Qin Jinhuan was too lazy to care about her antics. Since she was standing perfectly straight in front of him, he immediately put his car into reverse gear and reversed it two meters away, before rapidly turning the steering wheel to bypass her and drive away.
“Stop! Apologize to Mu!”
Mu Yu knew her attempts were futile. In the heat of the moment, she threw the stuff she was holding in her hand at the car. The moment she realized what she had thrown, she immediately ran after the car shouting, “Stop the car! Give me back my penis!”
“Damn it! Damn it!”
After chasing the car for a few steps, her phone rang.
Seeing that it was a call from her mother, Mu Yu couldn’t be bothered with chasing after the car anymore and picked up the call immediately. She answered her mum, smiling apologetically, and the next second, an ear-splitting voice pierced through. “If you don’t arrive at True Love in ten minutes, don’t ever think of bringing Mu into the house!”“I’m arriving soon, right away!” Mu Yu hung up the phone while she turned around. Looking at Mu that was injured, she felt sorry and comforted it with a whisper while tying it up again. She rushed to True Love western restaurant’s small parking lot, locked her scooter and walked into the restaurant while wiping away her sweat. “How dare you stare at me? I’m going to beat you up!” Mu Yu was shocked by the sudden yell coming from the back. She turned around only to see an old man with grey hair hitting Mu. Taken aback, she hurriedly ran back. “Grandpa, why are you hitting my Mu?” she grabbe
Qin Jinhuan—who could only see his grandpa, Qin Xiaozhi—quickly pulled him away from Mu Yu and asked in a concerned tone, “Grandpa, are you okay?” That is his grandpa! He is the unfilial grandson? Mu Yu casually rolled her eyes at him. Qin Xiaozhi ignored Qin Jinhuan and tugged on Mu Yu’s arms like a child, looking at her eagerly as he said, “I want to eat steak. I am hungry.”Qin Jinhuan immediately coaxed him. “Grandpa, the steak here is not delicious. After we get back home, I’ll let Aunty Lan—it’s you?!” Mu Yu realized that she was recognized by him, so she stretched out her arm and said, “Return it to me! “ “What?”Due to a crowd that had gathered around them, Mu Yu whispered softly, “The penis.”Qin Jinhuan, being unable to understand her and not wanting to dawdle, turned around and dragged his grandpa away forcefully after seeing that he refused to move.
Oh my god! What happened?Clueless, Mu Yu stood up hurriedly. She couldn’t even be bothered to clean the dust on her body. At that moment, she heard Qin Jinhuan questioning his grandfather. “Grandpa, what are you doing?!”“Tell her to get lost! Now!” Mu Yu took a good look. The one who furiously accused her as a loose woman and chased her away was actually Qin Xiaozhi. Feeling dumbstruck and wronged, she retorted, “Grandpa, aren’t you the one who invited me over? How could you?”“Pooh!” Qin Xiaozhi spitted with fury. “You don’t deserve to call me Grandpa. How shameless of you! Get lost now!” “You…” Tears welled up in Mu Yu’s eyes. Qin Jinhuan stopped being cheeky and said to her, “Please leave first.” As he turned around and forcefully pushed Qin Xiaozhi into the house, he explained to him, “Grandpa, you misunderstood, she is not…” “How dare you defend the b*tch?! Yo
At that moment, the morning sun was just rising, and the entire city was not fully awake. Mu Yu rode on her scooter and rushed to the west woods not far from her home. There was a black car parked at the side. She heard the police siren and thought that it belonged to a colleague living nearby that arrived earlier than her. She stopped her scooter at the side and ran into the woods. The woods were eerily quiet, making people have chills but she wasn’t scared since she knew her colleagues were arriving soon. As she ran, she looked at her surroundings at the same time. When she saw a person lying under the tree not far away, she quickly rushed over. Unexpectedly, a white shadow appeared from the side. She took a few steps back immediately and looked over vigilantly. Qin Jinhuan?! Why is he here? She was very surprised. “It’s you?” Qin Jinhuan was clearly surprised as well. He continued saying, “Don’t come over!”
“Why are you here?!” Startled at the appearance of Qin Jinhuan in Rong Jian’s office, Mu Yu frantically scanned her surroundings for any sight of Rong Jian.“Are you surprised?” Qin Jinhuan gave a mystified smile. “Chief Rong specifically made his office available for our date. What a great guy he is…”“Hey! What are you talking about?!” Mu Yu exclaimed exasperatedly. “Who is on a date with you?”“A single guy and girl like you and me in a room alone, if this is not a date, then what is it?”By now, Mu Yu was boiling with anger. Not wanting to engage him further, she turned around and stormed out.“That thing of yours, you don’t want it anymore?”Upon hearing this, Mu Yu made an about turn and marched over to the desk with an outstretched hand. “Hand it over!”“Hand what over?”“That… thing!”“Hahaha!” As though he had heard a hilarious joke, Qin Jinhuan started guffa
After running out of Rong Jian’s office sobbing uncontrollably, it was a moment before Mu Yu realized her public outburst. Scanning her surroundings in panic, she assured herself that her antics had not drawn the attention of any colleagues, before slipping into the toilet. After washing her face, she calmed her emotions down before walking back to the forensic lab.To be honest, she was not expecting herself to cry like that. It just so happened that her already bad mood was compounded by Qin Jinhuan purposely making a fool of herself, leaving her seething with anger and feeling a sense of injustice.Damned that wily old fox!As her hands curled around the plastic appendage in her pocket, she consoled herself with the thought that she would never have to interact with him again, which cheered her up a little. As she entered the forensic lab, she saw Dr. Feng Rubing hard at work. She immediately went over and offered, “Teacher Feng, can I help
The corners of Qin Jinhuan’s lips curled upward. He put his phone away and swaggered out. At the door, he turned around and saw that Mu Yu was still standing motionless. At once, his eyes dimmed. “To pay back money or visit grandpa?” “I have to apply for a leave first.” Mu Yu looked disconcerted. “That’s simple.” Qin Jinhuan signaled for her to catch up. He then dialled Rong Jian’s number and said, “I’m bringing little Mayo back to visit grandpa.” He hung up right after. Along the corridor, some colleagues took a double take. Mu Yu was embarrassed. She blushed and scolded in a low register, “How can you say that?” “Am I not telling the truth?” Qin Jinhuan replied with feigned surprise.Mu Yu was pissed off by the craftiness in his eyes, but there was no reason for her to react. All she could do was to walk away unhappily. “My car is here.” “Please keep your voice down. I’m not deaf.” Ann
Qin Jinhuan? Mu Yu stopped yelling when a closer look revealed that it was him. Pointing at the check in his hands, she put on a straight face and said, “You are right on time. I was just about to go looking for you. Keep the check—that’s repayment for my hundred thousand in debt. The remaining 4.9 million bucks can count as interest. Effective now, we don’t owe each other anymore.” Qin Jinhuan laughed at her speech. “Isn’t it a little too early to say that there is no more debt?” Mu Yu heard the dissent. She instantly looked at him nervously and asked, “What do you mean by that?” Qin Jinhuan waved the check in his hand. “You took advantage of grandpa’s delirium and spurred him into writing this huge check for you. I have both witness and evidence. I can sue you for scam. You are from the public security sector, deliberately breaking the law would be a demerit.” Mu Yu was mind blown. “No, no! I did not instigate a
