Tong Qinyun and Zhuo Mufan sat opposite each other in the restaurant on the second floor of Tang Feng Restaurant.
"I heard you had a car accident last night. Are you okay?" Tong Qinyun asked with concern.”
Zhuo Mufan smiled." Thank you for your concern. I'm fine."”
"How did this happen? I'm really worried. I'm really touched that you still came to meet me today after such a thing happened.”
Zhuo Mufan's forehead creased as he forced a smile. Didn't she know that he was forced to come here by her? He was extremely busy right now. Other than his original work at the company, the people from the " accident identification department " would send a car accident report to his company today. He also had to have a meeting with his confidant to figure out who wanted to harm him. Today was his birthday, and he had to go home on time to attend a dinner party called a birthday party, but it was actually a blind date...
Blind date…It was another blind date that gave him a headache. When he thought of these two words, he felt weak all over. He really could not understand. What era was it now? Why was he still forced into the predicament of blind dates?
Tong Qinyun glanced at her watch, and her expression was not good. She cursed softly,""This wretched girl, how dare she be late!”
"It's okay, Director. Let's wait a little longer.”If it were anyone else, Zhuo Mufan would have turned around and left.
"Mu Fan, I know that young people like you all advocate free love and don't like blind dates, but I really like you. It's really hard to find a man like you as a husband these days! I've long heard that you're filial and listen to your parents the most. If my wretched girl is half as filial as you, I'll be satisfied.”
" Director, you flatter me…" Zhuo Mufan was absent-minded as he thought about how he should reject Tong Qinyun's rumored fierce daughter. He had heard a lot about Xuan Pinrou.
"How could that be?" Tong Qinyun giggled and looked at Zhuo Mufan as if he was her son-in-law. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.
"Director, when can I go through the procedures to adopt Xiao Ling?”He was more concerned about this.
" There's no rush. Anyway, Xiao Ling is eating well and sleeping well at my place, so she won't be lost…" Tong Qinyun refused to give in. She would not be satisfied until she got this son-in-law.
Zhuo Mufan's mouth twitched as he forced a smile and pleaded,"" Director, don't make things difficult for me…"
Suddenly, an alarm rang, and all the customers were shocked.
"Fire! Fire!" Along with the panicked screams, gray smoke rose from every corner of the restaurant.
A group of men and women in bright clothes ran out of the restaurant in panic.
Zhuo Mufan quickly stood up, his sharp gaze sweeping over the place where the smoke was coming from, and he anxiously said,""Director, leave this place quickly. I'll go and see what's going on.”
He knew very well that this was definitely not a fire because there was only smoke and no flames. He just didn't know if there was poison in the smoke. The security of Tang Feng Restaurant was the responsibility of Zhuo's Security. It didn't matter if Tang Xiaotian scolded him a little when something happened, but if he was ridiculed by that "naughty cat", he couldn't stand it.
Tong Qinyun's eyes turned cold, and she gritted her teeth. She knew that this was definitely Xuan Pinrou's doing.
"Director, hurry up!" Zhuo Mufan urged anxiously.
Tong Qinyun had no choice but to stand up and run out with the crowd.
On the top floor of the building opposite Tang Feng Restaurant, Xuan Pinrou was holding a pair of high-powered military binoculars, proudly looking at her masterpiece. When she saw Tong Qinyun running out and looking around, she laughed out loud and took out her phone to dial a number. "Hello, Mom, the restaurant seems to be on fire. There's a lot of smoke. Are you okay?”
Blind date, go to hell! As long as he used a few special smoke bombs, the problem would be solved.
I wonder where that idiotic man is? Did he faint from fright?
"You wretched girl…Speak! Did you do this?" Tong Qinyun shouted angrily.
"This is God's will. It has nothing to do with me. Who asked you to mix up the couples? Even the heavens couldn't bear to see a fire fall from the sky to protest.”Xuan Pinrou admired the way Tong Qinyun was jumping around. She didn't look like a daughter at all.
"I gave birth to you. How can I not know what you're up to? Where are you hiding? Get out here!" Tong Qinyun shouted.
"Mom, your daughter isn't that stupid. Get over there and let you scold her. Ah…I'm so sleepy. I'm going to find a place to sleep. I won't chat with you anymore. Bye!”Xuan Pinrou turned off her phone and left with a laugh.
"Headmaster!" Zhuo Mufan walked out of the restaurant.
"Mu Fan, are you alright?" Tong Qinyun asked with concern.
" It's fine. It's just a few harmless smoke bombs. It must be a prank…"
Tong Qinyun smiled awkwardly." Actually…those smoke bombs were placed by my unfilial daughter…"
Zhuo Mufan was stunned for a moment, then smiled. What a woman with a personality, actually using such a method to avoid a blind date.
Tong Qinyun raised her hand and patted Zhuo Mufan's shoulder. She glanced at Tang Feng Restaurant and said," Apologize to Xiao Tian for me. Also, tell him that I don't mind if he steams or cooks my wretched girl. I'll arrange a blind date for you two when I catch my wretched girl next time. Alright, I'm leaving!"”
With that, she hailed a taxi and left.
" Director, about Xiao Ling…" Sigh, forget it, she was already far away.
Zhuo Mufan sighed as he watched the taxi drive away.
Please, a blind date? This time, it was a smoke grenade. Would it be a rocket launcher next time?
Zhuo Mufan, 30 years old, the CEO of Zhuo Security. His father, Zhuo Jin, was the former leader of the Chu Tian Alliance, a well-known mafia gang. The current leader, Zhuo Mulian, was Zhuo Mufan's half-sister. However, his sister had recently thought of stepping down, but she hadn't decided who would inherit the position.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was determined not to take over the gang, the position of gang leader would have fallen to him long ago. His other sisters were also working in the gang. He just couldn't understand why a good woman liked to mingle in the underworld.
It was not that he looked down on his family's gang. After all, he had been in a gang before. He just felt that he was not suitable to be in a gang. Although the security company was also a dangerous industry, he liked it.
He liked this job that was dangerous but relatively stable. He liked to use his own methods to protect his family's safety. He also liked to use his own hands to build his career.
It was just that he had a mother who only wanted to marry a daughter-in-law and carry grandchildren every day. Every day after dinner, she had nothing to do, so she forced him to go on blind dates for fun. However, when he was extremely filial to his mother, he could only give up his weapon and surrender every time he faced her crying, throwing a tantrum, and hanging himself.
After a long time, he simply treated the blind date as a meal with a client. After eating once, he would never give the other party a second chance to eat with him. As long as he put on that ice cold face, women who were interested in his identity and money would avoid him. It was just that his wallet was pitiful. Since it was a blind date banquet, the man would naturally pay for it.
He really wanted to learn from Xuan Pinrou, his blind date partner, and try to fight back. Otherwise, his mother would think that he had no temper.
In the afternoon, Xuan Pinrou sat in her three-legged chair in the office, dozing off with her feet on the table.
Kitten Luo stormed in from outside the door and stood behind Xuan Pinrou. He reached out to pull the chair away from her butt.
Xuan Pinrou was caught off guard and fell to the ground, screaming. She rubbed her butt and stood up, cursing,"You stupid cat, are you crazy?”
"Why didn't you tell me that the person you went on a blind date with was Zhuo Mufan?”Kitten Luo questioned.
"Zhuo Mufan? Who is Zhuo Mufan?" Xuan Pinrou was still unconscious.
"The CEO of Zhuo Security, Zhuo Mufan!”
"My mom didn't tell me, so how would I know it was him?”Xuan Pinrou grabbed her chair and sat down, muttering,"So what if it's him?"
"How is it? You don't even want that kind of good man. What kind of man do you want? You're really asking for a beating!" Kitten Luo kicked him.
Xuan Pinrou jumped up to dodge." What does it have to do with me whether he's a good man or not? I told you I don't want to fish for a fool!"
"If you want to take advantage of him, you have to see if I agree or not!”
"Are you crazy? She's fiercer than my mother…" She yawned loudly.
Kitten Luo knocked on his head." Do you still remember the man you left me to save the night before? Your precious car was also implicated by him and was shot with a row of bullet holes!”
"Yeah, that's why I've decided not to do good things anymore!”He yawned again. He was so sleepy…
"The man you saved the night before yesterday was Zhuo Mufan, the blind date you stood up on today!”Kitten Luo said word by word.
Xuan Pinrou blinked. Her brain had been frozen for a while, but it was back to normal. "What does that have to do with me?"
"Zhuo Mufan has decided to find the woman who saved him at all costs!”Kitten Luo rolled his eyes at her.
"He's crazy. I saved him out of kindness, but he actually returned my kindness with ingratitude!”It would be very troublesome if he found out about Die Sha's identity.
"Xiao Tian is already asking, should we tell him your identity?”
"Have you forgotten our rules?" Xuan Pinrou looked at her from the corner of her eyes.
"You can't hide it. It's your brother's wedding in a few days. You'll meet at the wedding.”Kitten Luo gloated.
"So what if we meet? At most, he would just know that I stood him up for the blind date. He wouldn't know that I was the one who saved him. I was wearing a mask at that time, so he wouldn't recognize me!”Xuan Pinrou said confidently.
"Don't you know that a man's pride doesn't allow a woman to provoke him? If you went on a blind date, you wouldn't have crossed paths with him, but you rejected him and attracted his interest. All men have the desire to conquer, and if he finds out that you saved him…Xuan Pinrou, you're in trouble!”
Xuan Pinrou smiled faintly." Is there anything else? If there's nothing else, I'm going to sleep."
Kitten Luo didn't say a word and turned to leave.
Xuan Pinrou put her feet on the table and closed her eyes, as if she was dozing off. However, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time. After a while, she opened her eyes and cursed,"Zhuo Mufan, you killed me!"
Zhuo Mufan was the first man to run away from home at the age of 30, and he was the first to escape from his own birthday party, which was also a huge blind date. However, he didn't know how to pick a place to stay, so he was in a lot of pain now. Not only did he have to fight with a big man of the same sex to sleep on a bed that wasn't spacious, but he also had to suffer the devastation of his neighbor's alarm clock.
I wonder if the neighbor next door sells alarm clocks? Listening to the alarm clock ringing, it was like a magical sound piercing through one's brain. Oh my god, don't the neighbors know that not everyone needs to wake up so early?
Zhuo Mufan was half-naked, wearing only a pair of white cotton boxers. He didn't have a blanket over him, but he was still sweating profusely. He opened his sore eyes unwillingly, pulled out a pillow to cover his face, and covered his ears with it. He was suffocated for a long time. He only poked his head out of the pillow when he was almost out of breath. He breathed in large mouthfuls of fresh air and wondered if he had made the wrong decision to run away from home and stay here last night. Of course, his answer was yes.
"Damn, the soundproofing here is terrible!”
Zhuo Mufan stared at the wall, wishing that his eyes could turn into rocket launchers and shoot out two cannonballs to blast the wall open. He wanted to see what kind of person would make such a big noise so early in the morning. He was even more upset that the man sleeping next to him didn't stay in a big hotel after his wife kicked him out of the house. Instead, he came to stay in this lousy place where even the neighbor could hear his fart. It was fine if the place was lousy, but in such hot weather, there was not even an air-conditioner in this place. As a result, he, who had always been afraid of the heat, couldn't sleep well the entire night.
"Honey, please don't be angry. I won't say that your cake is too sweet next time…"
A soft murmur came from beside his ear as a thick arm hugged Zhuo Mufan, its mouth pouting as if it was about to kiss him.
Zhuo Mufan's face darkened, and he pushed the thick arm and its owner to the side. He sat up with sweat on his forehead, shaking off the goosebumps on his body. "Disgusting…"
He sighed to himself. Why were all these men in love and after they married, they were all the same? Could it be that women really had such a magical power to change men?
He couldn't help but think of the Butterfly Fiend who had saved his life. The few bruises on his wrist had not completely disappeared, reminding him that being saved by the Butterfly Fiend was not a dream.
His phone rang and he pushed Tang Xiaotian who was beside him. "Get up and answer the phone!"
Tang Xiaotian moved his body without a word and continued to sleep.
The phone rang again and again, and Zhuo Mufan kicked Tang Xiaotian to the ground.
Tang Xiaotian let out a miserable cry and climbed up from the ground with his hands on his waist. He cursed angrily,"Are you crazy? I took the risk of being beheaded by your mother to take you in, and you actually kicked me off the bed!”
"Answer the phone!" Zhuo Mufan pointed at the phone on the bedside table.
Tang Xiaotian took out a pair of earplugs and asked,""What did you say?"
"Answer the phone!" Zhuo Mufan glared at the earplugs in his hand and cursed through gritted teeth,""What kind of brother is this? You knew that there would be an alarm clock in the morning, but you deliberately didn't tell me. You didn't even let me use earplugs. You deliberately wanted me to die from the noise, right?”
Tang Xiaotian picked up his phone and explained," I only have a pair of earplugs…" Then, she put the phone to her ear." Hello? Oh, Auntie…Yes, please wait a moment!”
Zhuo Mufan stared at the phone in front of him and exclaimed,""Looking for me?"
Who would know that he was here? Could it be…
"Your mother, my auntie, she told me not to pretend that you're not here!”
Her words dispelled Zhuo Mufan's thoughts of not picking up the phone. He could only take the phone. Just as she placed the phone to her ear to say hello, she heard a coquettish voice gritting her teeth.
"Zhuo Mufan, don't think that I can't find you just because you ran away from home. Unless you run to outer space, you won't be able to escape from me as long as you're on Earth!”
Zhuo Mufan begged with a bitter face,""Mom, I beg you to let me go, okay?”
This was too fast. He had only sneaked here for more than ten hours before he was found.
On the other end of the phone, Yin Xiuqin sneered." I can let you off, but I'll let you off if you contribute one daughter-in-law and one grandchild each!”
"Mom, stop messing around."
"You dare say that I'm messing around?" Yin Xiuqin's voice became sharp.
"No…no, you heard wrong!”Zhuo Mufan refused to admit what he had just said. Not only did he not admit it, he even made up a lie. I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about Xiaotian. He wanted to pull my leg hair just now…"
Would he do something so tasteless? Tang Xiaotian glared at Zhuo Mufan, silently cursing him for slandering his reputation.
" I don't care who you're talking about. I want a daughter-in-law, a grandson, and a granddaughter. I've found you so many candidates for a daughter-in-law, but you said that you don't like them. Then go find someone you like. Anyway, if you don't find one for me, I'll be an elderly mother and give birth to an obedient son myself..." What followed was a series of hair-raising cries.
"Mom, first of all, it's dangerous for you to be an advanced mother at your age. Secondly, his father would never agree to it. Third, you can't give birth even if you want to at your age. Fourth, you already have so many granddaughters, don't be too greedy…"
"What sin have I committed? If I raise an unfilial son like you, I don't want to live anymore. I'll die right now for you to see…"
"Mom, you've already committed suicide thirty-three times. None of them were real!”He mercilessly exposed his mother's trick.
"I…good boy, don't run if you have the guts, wait for me!!”
A cold female voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone." Zhuo Mufan, I'm warning you, you should know the consequences if you make Mom angry!”
Zhuo Mufan couldn't help but shiver. This was the voice of his half-sister, Zhuo Mulian. He had always been in awe of this older sister who had a different mother and was twenty years younger than him. "Sister, please don't make things difficult for me with Mom, okay?”
" Who taught you not to listen to me and embarrass me? I've already decided to tie you up and leave you at home, waiting for someone to come to me for a blind date..." Although her voice was cold, there was a hint of a smile.
"I got it. Thank you for your reminder, Big Sister. Bye!”Zhuo Mufan quickly turned off his phone and patted his chest in shock. It was his sister who doted on him and revealed such important information to him.
The noisy alarm clock next door rang again.
"Who lives next door?" Zhuo Mufan asked in disgust. Why are you so unethical?"
" There's a duck tyrant woman living next door. She's my wife's best friend..." So, no matter what noise the neighbor made, he could only endure it.
Zhuo Mufan looked at him sympathetically as he got out of bed and got dressed. "I want to leave immediately. It's not safe here!”
"Where are you going?" Tang Xiaotian put on his clothes.
Zhuo Mufan's not-so-handsome but stylish face fell." I don't know either. My mother and sisters know all my hiding places."”
"Do you really not want to get a girlfriend, get married, and have children?”Tang Xiaotian intended to brainwash him." Think about it, how comfortable it is to hold a woman's soft body in your arms, how pleasing it is to watch a woman cook for you, how exciting it is to hold a child that a woman has given birth to for you..."
"Don't drag others into that grave just because you're married. We have dozens of women in our family. I've seen too many women. I know what it's like to be with a woman…"
The conclusion was…Women were trouble!
Who would want to be with trouble? He was not a fool, so he naturally would not ask for trouble.
However, if it was a woman who was not troublesome, he was willing to consider it. However, where could he find a woman who was not troublesome?
Zhuo Mufan rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and walked to the bathroom to wash up.
Tang Xiaotian followed behind him and leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed. He continued to preach," You can't be biased. When you meet a woman who you want to protect for the rest of your life, you'll be willing to jump into a cave full of poisonous snakes, let alone the grave of marriage…"
"Including your cat? However, she kicked you out of the house because you said 'her cake is too sweeter'. You really dare to say that.”Zhuo Mufan washed his face and brushed his teeth as quickly as he could, then pushed Tang Xiaotian away and walked toward the door.
Tang Xiaotian smiled sweetly." That means that my wife cares about me. If she doesn't care about me, she won't be angry with me. I deserve to be kicked out if I make my wife angry. My wife will calm down very quickly. I just need to go back and apologize today…Hey, where are you going?”
"Of course it's to dodge! My mother is coming soon. I've had enough of her boring blind dates. I'd rather be a vagrant than be caught by her…"
"Come on, your family is in the underworld, and you own a security company. If you think you can avoid their eyes by being a vagrant, then you're really an idiot!”
"I don't care anymore. This time, even if my mother cries until her eyes are swollen, I won't compromise.”Zhuo Mufan grabbed the crumpled suit jacket on the sofa and was about to leave.
"Alan is getting married the day after tomorrow.”Tang Xiaotian reminded him that the day after tomorrow was the wedding of the adoptive daughter of the Zhuo family, who was also the closest to him, Zhou Ruilan.
"Of course I have to show up, but I'll hide for as long as I can!”
"But you were almost murdered. Isn't it more dangerous to run around like this?”
"I don't care anymore." As soon as he opened the door, Zhuo Mufan heard the footsteps of an army coming from the corridor. He quickly closed the door.
Tang Xiaotian smiled." So fast?”
" The women in my house are very active. Judging from the footsteps, it's not just my mother. My sisters are probably here as well. I'm the only male in the Zhuo family, how could these women have the heart to do this to me…" Zhuo Mufan quickly dragged the sofa to block the door. His violent mother could break in at any moment.
As he spoke, the bell rang, accompanied by the sound of someone slamming the door and cursing. The content of the curses was nothing more than " Zhuo Mufan, you bastard, get out here " or something like that.
Zhuo Mufan walked to the balcony of the bedroom and looked at the height of the sixth floor. Although it was a little high, it wasn't difficult to climb up. He just didn't know if there was anyone keeping watch downstairs. However, he didn't have time to think about this problem because Tang Xiaotian had already pushed the sofa away and was about to open the door. He couldn't help but scold this guy in his heart for being disloyal, but he couldn't be blamed. No one could deal with his mother.
The alarm clock next door rang again. Zhuo Mufan had an idea, and his tall and burly body nimbly climbed onto the balcony railing. The distance between the two balconies was very close, so Zhuo Mufan didn't have to use much strength to jump into the balcony next door. Then he opened the balcony door and walked into the room, ignoring the noise next door.#
